Chapter 1063 She, Is The Woman I Desire

jet-black, shiny eyes. Seeing his expectant gaze, she couldn't help but praise him."The golden treasure is so well-behaved."The little boy smiled and rubbed against her chest, Fang Jinxiu smiled on...Yulian no longer dared to casually spread her kindness, and fell silent for a while.

Fāng Jǐn xiù saw her expression and patted her shoulder, "It's normal to become extreme when you spend a long time in this kind of environment just to leave. Don't be sad."

If I had the chance to meet the master of this manor, perhaps I could find a way to take over the entire venue and help these people regain their freedom.

The thought only flashed through her mind for a moment. Fang Jinshu had long since passed the age of naivety, she knew that it wouldn't be easy to achieve this, so she didn't say anything.

They walked two more streets forward, and the slaves at the stalls on both sides began to show some changes.

The slaves here aren't dressed as raggedly, and many even have clean faces. They look much better than the previous group.

He Sifang introduced, "This is the scattered stall area."

"The few stalls in front of us are run by peddlers, and over there are also slaves, all with skills and good health without any hidden illnesses, so their prices are a bit higher."

"How much more expensive is it" asked Fang Jinshi.

"The price of a slave ranged from ten to fifty ounces, depending on their skills."

"These are all ready-to-use upon purchase, no need for the owner to spend further effort on training them, just wash them clean and feed them."

Fang Jinshu was taken aback. The price of a slave with a skill, was surprisingly higher than that in the lower district. Not just doubled, but multiplied several hundred times over.

"Ahead is the high-class slave district. The slaves there are some that guests need to bid on in an auction together."

Yu Lian couldn't help but speak again, "These skilled slaves are sold for dozens of taels each. Are there any other valuable things that can only be bought at auction"

He Si smiled and said, "Guests, there are plenty of them."

"Some are beautiful and charming, some have graceful dancing skills, and others are skilled in poisons and martial arts."

"By the way, even those with special statuses are included in the range of what can be auctioned."

Is there something special about your identity

He Sifan saw the jade lotus and looked curious.

"Even the small ones have never been to the high-class slave district. If guests are curious, they can go in and see for themselves."

"Entering the upper district has a threshold, everyone must pay one hundred taels of silver to enter, or buy more than ten slaves in the middle district."

Hearing that there was a fee to enter the VIP area, Yu Lian had reached her wit's end.

To be honest, the head of your manor is really good at making money.

Although she found it absurd, she had to admire how it effectively captured the customer's curiosity.

The richer they are, the more they crave exclusivity. These wealthy individuals are drawn to places that are difficult to access, even if they don't intend to buy anything. They are simply curious about what the high-class slaves look like inside.

Fang Jinshi was not at all surprised. She had mentally prepared herself when she heard that accommodation required payment or the purchase of five slaves as a condition.

Since we're at the Grand Gathering of Talents, naturally we should see everything there is to see. We should definitely visit the high-class area too.

Her main purpose for coming here was to find the master of Wuyu Pavilion. Buyers like them were most likely to appear in the upscale district.

"But to enter the high-class area, one has to pay 100 taels of silver. That's too much, isn't it"

Jade Lotus really couldn't bear to spend this money. They came with four people, that meant four hundred taels of silver, just like that, given away for nothing

Fang Jinshi smiled. "Who said we have to hand over the money directly."

"Isn't there another condition"

Yulian then suddenly realized, "That's right! With these 400 taels of silver, we could buy ten slaves here to get in."

Besides, I got ten people. The money was well spent, much better than giving it away for nothing.

"Let's go pick some people."

Yu Lian suddenly smiled shyly at Fang Jinxiu, "That, sister-in-law."

"Just say what you have to say, don't just keep smiling at me like that, it's creepy."

Yu Lian chuckled and said, "I also want to buy two handmaidens. Business at the vegetable shop has been too busy lately, and I can't keep burdening Chang He. He's still young, you know. If he gets overworked, he won't grow tall, and then who will he find a wife"

Fang Jinxiu shook her head helplessly, "You want to buy people, just buy them. What are you doing by bringing out the Changhe River"

"So, sister-in-law, you agree!"

Yu Lian excitedly waggled her arms, her fingers twitching and making a gesture for money.

Fang Jinxiu gave her two hundred taels.

"You can go sightseeing, but you must bring Zhao Xingzhou with you. Otherwise, your older brother and I won't feel at ease."

Zongyu nodded.

Yu Lian didn't like Zhao Xingzhou much. He was supposed to be their family's protector, but who knew he only listened to his sister-in-law.

"If you don't let him follow you, don't even think about running off alone. This is how you promised us when you came out."

Jade Lotus nodded helplessly, "Alright, I'll let him follow."

Since she could wander around on her own, she treated this fellow as if he were a wooden dummy who couldn't speak, as if he didn't exist.

Then I'm off!

Yu Lian took the silver and ran happily. Zhao Xingzhou naturally listened to Fang Jinxiu's words, got up and followed her to protect Yu Lian's safety.

"Come on, let's take a look around and find some people for the Hou Mansion."

As the two walked and chatted about everyday matters, He Si saw that they didn't need him for the moment and quietly trailed behind. He would only approach when Fang Jinshu needed him.

This point is indeed well-trained.

Fang Jinshu looked at the little girls at the stalls on both sides and couldn't help but think of the three daughters at home.

As Xiaoyue and the others grew older, Jin Yu and Xiao Zhao fell in love with each other. Qiu Ju also seemed to have someone she liked. It wouldn't do to keep them all as unmarried maidens forever.

Of the three girls, Xiaoyue is the most determined. Over all these years, there have been many who have shown interest in her, but this girl doesn't give anyone a chance, not even herself.

Although I don't object to them remaining single if they can't find someone they like, I'm okay with them living with me for life.

But Xiaoyue, this girl, was clearly stubborn. She had made up her mind to keep the promise she made to stay by my side for life and wouldn't give anyone else a chance, nor herself one either.

"That's a bit difficult."

He usually stayed out of family matters, but if Fang Jinshu felt troubled, he wouldn't stand idly by.

Just as he was about to speak, a commotion arose ahead. A female slave was violently thrown by a burly man straight towards them.

The beauty was right before his eyes, Zong Yu instinctively reached out to catch the female slave. Her hair was dishevelled, and the clothes that were originally somewhat neat had been torn apart by the man's violence, revealing her white skin, which happened to be touched by Zong Yu's palm.

The woman shrank back, while Zong Yu frowned and caught her before immediately putting her down, not touching her for a second longer.

Fang Jinxiu didn't notice any of this. The burly man opposite her still had a thick beard, and he carried a large sword on his back. He looked quite intimidating.

He walked straight towards them, pointing at the maidservant and staring at Fang Jinshu.

She, is the slave woman that I fancy.

If you don't want to get beaten, just stand aside and mind your own business!s!"She turned around and glared at the person blocking her way, "Get out of my way! I'll show you who dares to stop me, you're all tired of living, aren't you!"The maidservant in Jinshi Mountain Villa...
