Chapter 329 - I Double Whatever You Throw At Me (1/2)
Chen Shaobai and Du Shoushou both seemed to be a bit heartless, after saying that it was because of you, they immediately fell asleep.
An Zheng looked around, there were no longer seats in the house, so he found a bed and sat on the reclining chair in the living room, he pulled up the blanket and stared outside the door in a daze. The night was about to pa.s.s. It was the darkest time. But when the sun rose, no one knew what would happen.
Zhuang Dong and Yin Zhiting, An Zheng had personally killed them. Revenge seemed to have taken another big step forward, and the number of people who had partic.i.p.ated in it increased. An Zheng was unable to enter Peac.o.c.k City's Imperial Palace, so of course he couldn't see Chen Zhongqi. An Zheng couldn't help but think what would happen if he were to see the scene after Chen Zhongqi?
Chen Zhongqi was once his brother, a brother like Du Shoushou.
An Zheng shook his head, telling himself not to think about it. After all, entering the Emperor Palace of the Peac.o.c.k City was not an easy task. He wasn't on the invitation list, so it would be difficult for him to enter the auction. But before that, he had to obtain enough spirit stones. The treasures of Golden-Rank and other ranks were no longer something that could be measured with gold and silver.
An Zheng did some calculations and he only had two Golden-Rank Spirit Stone that were around four to five kilograms. Of course, if they were converted into silver, it would be an astronomical figure. Initially, he had planned to find these two Golden-Rank Spirit Stone for Du Shoushou to raise his cultivation. Now, it seemed that he could only use them temporarily.
Du Shoushou's cultivation potential was actually not very good, only one and a half stars. The reason why his cultivation level had kept increasing by leaps and bounds was all because of An Zheng relying on spirit stones and pills.
Is it hard to make money?
It was very difficult!
Was it hard for An Zheng to earn money?
An Zheng laughed and closed his eyes to rest. The morning dew was brought into the house by the wind. When An Zheng opened his eyes, the sky was just starting to brighten. After calculating the time, he didn't even sleep for an hour. He got up and took a hot bath to change his clothes. When he entered the room to take a look, he discovered that Du Shoushou and Chen Shaobai were tangled together in an extremely unsightly sleep. Of the two, one was big and tall, while the other was a fair-faced boy. There were many similarities between their personalities.
An Zheng did not wake them up as he walked out of the inn alone.
Because the people of the Ming Fa Si had left, the people of the West Qiang had all died, the Koreans were more or less dead, and the people of the State of Zhao had also died. When An Zheng walked out of the door, the Tsukiko soldiers at the relay station looked at him as if they were looking at a monster. Ever since An Zheng moved in, the people here became fewer and fewer …
An Zheng went to Qing Zhai first, and got Qing Zhai's shopkeeper to write a IOU. He borrowed two Golden-Rank Spirit Stonnd eleven red rank spirit stones from Qing Zhai's branch. If the value of these items were converted into silver, it would be extremely shocking. Fortunately, An Zheng had given him a keepsake, and this object symbolized Tan Taiche himself. Otherwise, the shopkeeper would not have lent him the items first.
An Zheng asked the shopkeeper which was the biggest auction house. The shopkeeper said that the biggest auction house in Tsukiko was called Tan Yin Tower, and it had the background of a royal from the Tsukiko. In this city, the one ranked second was Qing Zhai.
An Zheng said his goodbyes and quietly walked to the entrance of Tan Yin Tower alone while carrying the things that he borrowed from Qing Zhai.
Tan Yin Tower wahree-storey brick building with a typical Buddhist style in the Western Regions. The hall on the first floor was dazzling in gold and jade, and the interior was filled with glittering things that exuded a rich fragrance.
When An Zheng entered, a very quick-witted doorman walked over quickly and greeted with a smile. The women of Tsukiko were revered, in this Tan Yin Tower, from the shopkeeper to the waiters, all of them were women, the ones who worked hard were the men. This little girl looked to be around fifteen or sixteen years old. He was fair and clean, and there was even some baby fat on her face. When he smiled, there were two beautiful dimples on her face.
”Esteemed customer, please come in.”
The little girl smiled sweetly, ”Is there anything I can help you with? Let me introduce you to the things in the shop. ”
An Zheng took out a silver note and placed it in the little girl's hands. The little girl stared blankly for a moment, then said somewhat embarra.s.sedly: ”I haven't helped you with anything yet, how can I accept your reward?”
An Zheng laughed, ”Your smile looks good, but my heart is comfortable.”
Although An Zheng was not that handsome, he was clean and fresh. He was dressed in black embroidered Qilin clothes that fit him, looking very heroic. This little girl's eyesight is not bad, and he didn't pay much attention at first. After An Zheng finished speaking, she subconsciously sized him up, and only then did he react: ”I'm not annoying, not annoying at all. Greetings Prince Fu.”
An Zheng could not help but be a little surprised: ”How did you know?”
”Everyone who is able to work in the Tan Yin Tower needs to remember that there are at least 120 countries worth of official uniform. That picture book is so thick that it almost reaches my knees. We'll need at least six years of training to get into the store, and most of us will be eliminated before we get in. Fortunately, although my results are not considered outstanding, I was not eliminated, right? ”
An Zheng laughed and shook his head: ”This kind of arrogant energy, does your shop want to bet stones?”
”If it's an auction house, there will definitely be gambling stones. ”However …”
She lowered her voice and said, ”Because of the relations.h.i.+p with the Peac.o.c.k Palace, we cannot put it on the surface to manage it. As you know, Lord Buddha doesn't like to gamble. ”
An Zheng found this little girl even more adorable. ”Bring me there to have a look.”
”Yes, but in order to guarantee it, you have to pay some deposit before you enter the stone tasting hall. If you come out without any damage or accident, the deposit will be returned to you.”
An Zheng casually took out ten thousand silver: ”Is that enough?”
The little girl said, ”That's enough, though it's a little bit small.”
An Zheng was slightly embarra.s.sed.
He brought An Zheng to the counter to settle the paperwork, took out the deposit certificate, and then led An Zheng to the backyard. Outside the front building, there was a large garden behind it. Outside the Tsukiko's Peac.o.c.k City was a desert, with only the Peac.o.c.k City being an oasis. The garden looked pleasant and the faint fragrance made him feel comfortable. Even if he were to lie down and sleep in this environment, it would be beautiful.
The little girl waalkative person, she would not stop pouting for a while. He brought An Zheng through the garden and entered a building that looked like a huge yurt. An Zheng was a little surprised when he entered. There were so many people here that it was outrageous.
The stone hall was very big, with at least four or five hundred chairs neatly arranged in the center. Opposite these chairs, there walatform about one meter high. On it was a young woman wearing a colorful robe. She was introducing something with a pleasant voice. Four or five hundred chairs were almost full. Apart from this, there were at least a hundred or two people walking around and looking at the stones.
The Buddhist Sect forbade gambling, but if the auction houses did not gamble with stones, there would be at least half the crowd.
The little girl pointed to the platform and said, ”There will be an auction later. Sister Lin Lang is introducing the auction items. There are stones all around, and the prices are clearly marked. Prince Fu has taken a fancy to that piece, so we can buy it.
An Zheng nodded his head: ”I'll take a look first, you go and busy yourself.”
The little girl said, ”No, you are an important guest. I have to accompany you the entire time. ”You have to give me an evaluation when you go out later. If you are not satisfied with it, I will be deducted from my salary. If it is serious, I will be expelled.”
