Pampered Beast: Frail Beauty with Many Children Brings Blessings
Chapter 87 Entrusted by Someone
Chapter 87 Entrusted by Someone
The animal skin bag in the middle of Dongye Zhongfang is very large; it's unknown how many animal skins were sewn together to make it.
Unlike other fully covered animal hide bags, this one only has a tall top, under which is a three-tiered stone platform, about three zhang wide. Around it are stone steps that are higher and higher. The top stone step leaves a gap of one person's height between it and the top of the animal hide bag. Moreover, the surrounding stone steps are divided into four equal parts by horizontal and vertical passageways.
In this way, the auction venue can accommodate a large number of orcs, their views will not be obstructed, and the ventilation will be good!
Ji Liang grabbed the middle seat in the third row. He stretched out his beast form on the stone steps, and the seats for about a dozen beastmen were firmly occupied.
As soon as Si Shuo arrived, he was caught by her tail and pulled over. He then transformed into human form, chuckled, and hugged her, asking, "Did you have fun?"
Although he was reserving a spot, Si Shuo would put a portion of whatever he ate into his space, so his mouth never stopped moving.
The males, who were also occupying the spots, had rumbling stomachs from hunger, while he, using the animal skin bag as cover, took out various foods and ate them slowly.
Snacks, in particular, have many enticing flavors and are steaming hot. Inside the slow-moving animal skin bags, they're like playful cats, waving and teasing this and that, making the stomachs of those who are hungry rumble even more!
Tsk, so the choice of females is very important. Some females are fickle and don't know how to cherish males, they just keep demanding.
Over time, such a relationship will eventually fade, and the man's passionate heart will slowly cool down.
Si Shuo nodded, took out the paper, and whispered his plan in his ear: "Let's go and check the situation first. We don't know the location, size, or condition of the estate and shops."
Zhuangzi must have farmed and raised poultry and livestock, opened shops and restaurants, and sold all kinds of delicious food...
Ji Liang was most interested in these things. "Okay, if there's a chance, we can buy more shops and land."
However, little Shuo Shuo, I think you shouldn't have too high expectations for Zhuangzi and the shop.
The manor and shops that the city lord was willing to give up, which he had acquired with great difficulty in Guangshou City, certainly weren't of high quality; there might even be something fishy going on.
Si Shuo took out the two land deeds that were recognized by various families in the Central Continent and authenticated by Chief Xu and Ji Liang. He pursed his lips and said, "Even if things get bad, we can't be without a place to stay, can we?"
"It shouldn't be that bad. We've stocked up on crystals anyway. Is there really no place for us in such a large city like Guangshou?" Ji Liang was quite optimistic. "At worst, we'll just go to the border town and make a name for ourselves!"
The beastmen arrived one after another. Although it was night, fire-type beastmen with supernatural abilities controlled fireballs to provide illumination throughout the animal skin area.
There were many fireballs, and the temperature was controlled, making the entire auction hall as bright as day, with almost no shadows visible. It was comparable to the shadowless lamps used on the operating table that Si Shuo often visited in his previous life!
She hadn't thought about her previous life for a long time, and couldn't help but purse her lips and snuggle closer into Ji Liang's arms.
Ji Liang chuckled and kissed her cheek. "Little Shuo Shuo, buy whatever you like later. Don't worry about saving it for us. Crystals are earned to be spent."
Si Shuo chuckled in response, snuggling into his arms. Hearing his slightly excited hissing, her smile deepened.
Before long, Xie Shi, the red-haired ape-beastman, went up on stage with a smile and poured his spiritual power into his voice so that all the beastmen in the auction could hear him clearly.
"Welcome, esteemed ladies and gentlemen, from afar, to our Dongye Zhongfang auction!"
All the orcs clapped excitedly for a long time before stopping. Xie Shi smiled and briefly explained the rules of the auction. Then he had the first ten items to be auctioned brought up and explained them one by one. The orcs sitting on the stone steps then bid on them.
There were rare and beautiful animal hides, exquisite ornaments, high-quality seeds, and effective pills, but Si Shuo wasn't particularly interested in these.
However, later in the auction, there were even auctions for female beast husbands, gourmet recipes, and land deeds for fields, shops, and houses in various beast cities!
The beastmen were all red-faced with excitement, shouting for the price with extraordinary fervor.
Zhile took out a piece of animal hide, a map of the Central Continent that he had bought from other orcs. He had translated the animal script on it into pinyin and then used his lightning-infused fingernails to lightly and delicately burn it onto the hide.
Si Shuo leaned over to look, and whenever Xie Shi read out the name of a beast city, they would search for the corresponding location on the map.
The land being auctioned was only located in general area; without visiting it in person, the specific details were unknown!
Although they don't have land deeds for Guangshou City, they can compete for land in the surrounding cities if the circumstances are right.
But how do they know the condition of the land?
When they heard the land deed for a manor with about 500 acres of land, located only two beast cities away from Guangshou City and near a water source, they were somewhat tempted, especially since many beastmen raised their paddles and excitedly shouted out bids with flushed faces.
However, at this moment, a squirrel-like beastman walked over with a hunched back, waved his hand to set up a protective shield, and looked at Si Shuo respectfully, saying, "Si Shuo, female, I have been entrusted by someone to answer your questions."
This land sounds nice, but it's a barren place, the soil is infertile and unsuitable for planting and raising livestock, and the orcs who live there tend to be quite irritable.
If you're looking to buy land, you might want to take a stroll through the various beast cities of the Central Continent…
After his explanation, everyone understood that the land being auctioned today was basically undeveloped, with low security and far from the Beast City. It was divided up by large families and tribes and then sold in pieces to the clueless beastmen who were heading to the Central Continent.
Gong You sneered: "The Central Continent is registering land deeds on land that is completely unusable, just to deceive crystals!"
Are those who know the situation gleefully watching others take the bait, even instigating price increases to create the illusion that the land is in good condition and highly sought after?
The squirrel-like beastman hunched over and said in a low voice, "Yes, some of them are hired by our auction house specifically for the purpose of spending crystals."
Si Shuo understood immediately; wasn't it just a shill?
She couldn't help but look at the platform. She had met Xie Shi before; he was Xiao Shisi's uncle. But she understood that the squirrel-beastman's words about being entrusted with something meant Xiao Shisi!
Although they were in the third row, each row of orcs was packed tightly together, and at a glance, all she could see were heads of different colors, making her dizzy.
Si Shuo's eyes flickered slightly. She left the squirrel beastman to explain to Ji Liang and Gong You, while she slipped over to Xu Chi's side and gave him a look. The male immediately snapped his fingers and set up a protective shield.
Si Shuo... you can't get over the finger-snapping joke, can you?
"Xu Chi, let's go for a walk. When everyone's not paying attention, you can hide and bring me in!"
I've always felt that Xiao Shisi is a bit strange...
