Young Master, Don't Show Off - Chapter 332

[Chapter 332 See You Again]

The Sea Spirits are also a branch of the Sea Clan, but compared to the Sea Clan, they are more like humans.

Most of the Sea Clan are born with ugly appearances, sharp and thin teeth, fins or scales on their bodies, webbed hands and feet, and a fishy smell all over their bodies, which can be distinguished at a glance.

The Sea Spirits are different. From the appearance, they are no different from humans.

Moreover, they do not have the fishy smell of most of the Sea Clan, but a unique fragrance.

This fragrance is the only way to distinguish the Sea Spirits.

Because of their specialness, the Sea Spirits, both men and women, are very popular in human countries. The Sea Spirits, especially the women, can be sold at a very high price. The

huge profits have even spawned some dark industrial chains.

Some organizations will secretly domesticate humans who have awakened the water magic, bathe them with perfume every day, and sell them as Sea Spirits when they grow up.

When the news came out in the East Sea City that a Sea Spirit woman would be auctioned in the near future, even the wealthy merchants from the surrounding prefectures rushed over.

Not only Minghe, but all the women are quite interested in the Sea Spirits.

The auction took place at the East China Sea Chamber of Commerce, which is the largest chamber of commerce in the East China Sea Prefecture. Its business covers several coastal prefectures, and its merchant ships often travel to Fuso, Java, and other sea island countries.

Because their merchant ships often sail on the sea, the East China Sea Chamber of Commerce has hired many strong men with water skills, one to better resist the wind and waves, and the other to beware of the sea people.

On the sea, if you encounter a sea family hijacking your ship, no ability is better than water skills.

At the same time, finding and hunting the Sea Spirits is also one of their tasks.

Catching a Sea Spirit is equivalent to the profit of their several trips.

When Lin Xiu and the others walked to the East China Sea Chamber of Commerce, the rate of turning back along the way was 100%.

The nine beauties around them, each of them is a beauty in the world, each of them is beautiful and unique, and there is also an exotic one. Wherever they go, the eyes of passers-by move there.

The figures of several people have been gone for a long time, and some people are still whispering.

“One, two, three, four…, nine, nine beauties!”

“Whose family is he from? How come I’ve never seen him before?”

“With so many beauties, he must be too happy, right?”

“I just want to know, can his waist bear it?”

…

A lot of people gathered at the entrance of the East China Sea Chamber of Commerce. Many people wanted to see what the Sea Spirits looked like, but most people could only wait outside.

This is a large manor. Although you don’t need a ticket to enter, you must first verify your wealth. If you don’t have 10,000 taels of silver notes with you, you don’t even have the qualifications to enter.

Even most wealthy businessmen can’t take out 10,000 taels of silver in cash. Those who are qualified to enter are naturally real nobles.

Everyone who enters the manor can bring in at most one person. When a young man casually took out 100,000 taels and brought nine beauties in, many people were shocked.

This is the real wealth and power. When did this person come to the East China Sea?

The manor of the East China Sea Chamber of Commerce was much quieter, without the bustling crowd. Lin Xiu saw only a dozen figures at a glance. When Lin Xiu led the women in, it naturally caused a commotion.

Wherever they went, they were the most eye-catching.

However, after just a moment, everyone’s attention returned to another place.

In front of the manor, a wooden platform was built, on which was placed a transparent crystal giant tank filled with water and surrounded by some water plants for decoration. A woman leaned against the wall of the tank and spit out a string of bubbles from time to time.

The woman’s appearance was very similar to that of the Daxia woman. She was only average, not ugly. Compared with the women around Lin Xiu, the gap was obvious.

The rich merchants and wealthy children who were originally planning to spend a lot of money to buy this sea woman secretly compared this sea woman with the woman around the young man, and suddenly felt that the money was not worth it. Those who

originally planned to bid 20,000 taels quietly lowered their psychological bottom line by 5,000 taels.

Xue Ning’er looked at the woman in the water and murmured, “This is the Sea Spirit Clan. She looks no different from us…”

Lin Xiu doubted the woman’s identity as a Sea Spirit Clan. It’s not like he had never seen a Sea Spirit Clan before, but this woman looked different from the one he had seen.

Lin Xiu was not the only one who had this doubt. A pot-bellied man asked, “How can you prove that she is from the East China Sea Chamber of Commerce?”

The manager of the East China Sea Chamber of Commerce said, “We bought this Sea Spirit Clan woman at a high price on the black market. We have also identified her. If you don’t believe me, you can get close and smell her. The Sea Spirit Clan has a special fragrance…”

The woman’s hands were tied with iron chains. The manager had someone drag the iron chain outside, and her arms were dragged outside. The rich businessman came forward and smelled her. As expected, he smelled a faint fragrance on her body.

The manager of the East China Chamber of Commerce continued, “She can also speak the language of the sea people, which can prove her identity.”

After that, he picked up a whip and whipped the crystal jar twice. The woman in the jar was frightened and dodged, saying some strange language: “涓嶈鎵撴垜锛屾…”

Lin Xiu was slightly stunned when he heard it.

He didn’t understand what the woman said.

But he soon understood.

What this woman said was not only incomprehensible to humans, but also to the sea people.

Some people will let human women who have awakened water magic pretend to be sea spirits, sell them at a high price, and then take the opportunity to escape, or secretly snatch them back. It is the buyer himself who did not look at it well, and it cannot be blamed on the seller.

This woman is in the same group with the East China Chamber of Commerce.

Although her acting skills are superb, there is still a big gap compared with the little actors in Lihuayuan.

I am afraid that the rich businessman is also a trustee of the East China Chamber of Commerce.

Princess Minghe looked at the frightened woman and whispered to Lin Xiu, “She looks so pitiful. How about we buy her?”

Lin Xiu leaned over and whispered a few words in her ear. Princess Minghe looked at the woman in astonishment. Is this a fake Sea Spirit?

At this time, the manager of the East China Sea Chamber of Commerce had announced the start of the auction. The

auction base price for this rare Sea Spirit girl was 10,000 taels. Each bid must be increased by 1,000 taels. The highest bidder could take this exotic beauty home.

“I’ll pay 11,000 taels!”

“I’ll pay 12,000 taels!”

“15,000 taels!”

…

After several rounds of bidding, the Sea Spirit woman was finally taken away by a wealthy businessman from Jiangnan Prefecture for 18,000 taels. Everyone wanted to compete with him for her, but when they looked at the Sea Spirit woman and then at the woman next to the young man, they suddenly felt that women from other races were just so-so and boring, so they stopped bidding.

The wealthy businessman from Jiangnan Prefecture was accompanied by an old man.

He raised his hands, and the woman in the crystal tank slowly flew out under the water. The iron chain on her hand was not opened, and was held in the old man’s hand.

The old man was obviously a water-based magician, and his strength was at the upper level of the Xuan level, not the ground level.

At such an old age, he had just cultivated to this level, so his talent was naturally very poor, but he was more than enough to be a bodyguard for others.

The auction ended quickly, and everyone left in an orderly manner. There were already a large number of people watching outside. The people of the prefecture also wanted to see what the legendary Sea Spirit Clan looked like.

Seeing a woman with iron chains on her hands and wet all over her body walking out from inside, the crowd talked a lot.

“Is this the Sea Spirit Clan?”

“They are no different from us, they look just like that…”

“They are not as pretty as the girls in Xiaoyao Tower.”

“They are selling this for more than 10,000 taels. Are the rich people blind?”

…

The crowd of onlookers kept complaining. Lin Xiu was not interested in the fake Sea Spirit Clan. Just as he was about to leave with the girls, he suddenly sniffed lightly. There was a faint strange fragrance in the air.

Zhao Lingjun, who was beside him, also moved his eyes slightly.

At the same time, a figure suddenly rushed out from the crowd of onlookers.

The figure was wearing an ordinary coarse cloth dress, and her head was also wrapped with a cloth towel. When she rushed out of the crowd, she shook her hands towards the position of the rich businessman, and countless water drops flew towards the rich businessman.

Although the water drops were small, they were very fast. For ordinary people, their power should not be underestimated.

The old man next to the rich businessman, of course, would not watch it. He immediately stepped forward and protected the rich businessman. A layer of water film covered his body. When the water drops touched him, they directly merged into his body.

But in order to protect his employer, the iron chain in his hand was loosened at this moment.

A figure rushed out from the crowd, holding the wrist of the fake Sea Spirit woman, and anxiously uttered a syllable.

This time Lin Xiu heard it clearly.

She said “go quickly”.

But at this moment, something unexpected happened. The fake Sea Spirit woman who was chained by the iron chain did not go with her, but hugged her tightly and shouted: “Come quickly, I caught her!”

The figure was stunned for a moment, and struggled desperately, but failed to break free.

At the same time, more than a dozen figures rushed out from the East China Sea Chamber of Commerce, as if they had been prepared, and surrounded the figure, pointing their weapons at her.

In the fierce struggle, the cloth on the figure’s head fell off, revealing a head of golden hair, and her eyes were also as blue as the sea, but this pair of beautiful eyes was full of fear at this moment.

The manager of the East China Sea Chamber of Commerce looked at the blonde and blue-eyed woman and couldn’t help but exclaimed in ecstasy: “You finally showed up!”

The middle-aged rich businessman and the old man beside him were also surprised rather than surprised. It was obvious that they had expected this scene.

Lin Xiu finally understood that this auction was obviously a trap.

It was to lure out the real Sea Spirits.

Lin Xiu didn’t know how she got the news or how she found this place, but it was obvious that the Sea Spirit woman he had saved last time was in trouble again.

The rich businessmen who had just failed to win the auction were all stunned when they saw the blonde and blue-eyed Sea Spirit woman in front of them.

This is the real Sea Spirit woman. With this figure and this appearance, it is worth any amount of money.

Someone immediately said, “I’ll offer 20,000 taels of silver, don’t fight with me!”

Someone next to him snorted coldly and said, “You want to take her away for 20,000 taels? Have you asked us? I’ll offer 25,000 taels!”

“I’ll offer 28,000 taels!”

“30,000 taels!”

“33,000 taels!”

…

When this woman from the Sea Spirit tribe appeared, everyone was excited. When it was more than 10,000 taels just now, no one raised the price. At this moment, in just a short while, the price was raised to 40,000 taels.

After a son of a wealthy family called out 40,000 taels, no one raised the price anymore.

This was already a very high price, beyond the psychological bottom line of many people.

At this time, a young man said, “50,000 taels.”

Everyone looked at the young man and was stunned.

He already had so many beautiful women around him, but he still wanted this woman from the Sea Spirit tribe, this lecherous thief!

Even if he didn’t care about money, didn’t he care about his body?

No one added to the high price of 50,000 taels. At this time, the manager of the East China Sea Chamber of Commerce shook his head and said, “Sorry, our East China Sea Chamber of Commerce spent a lot of effort to catch her. We plan to take her to Kyoto and sell her…”

Everyone realized that the East China Sea Chamber of Commerce did not really want to auction the Sea Spirit Clan from the beginning.

Kyoto is full of powerful people, and there are even more rich people, so of course they can sell it at a higher price.

The young man looked at the manager of the East China Sea Chamber of Commerce and said, “60,000 taels.”

The manager was delighted and said, “Young master is willing to pay 60,000 taels, maybe someone in Kyoto is willing to pay 70,000 taels.”

The young man thought for a moment and said, “70,000 taels.”

The manager smiled even more and said, “Young master is willing to pay 70,000 taels, maybe the dignitaries in the capital are willing to pay 80,000 taels!”

Lin Xiu was silent for a moment, and finally said, “100,000 taels.”

The manager could no longer hide his joy, and said with expectation, “Someone in the East China Sea is willing to pay 100,000 taels, and someone in Kyoto should be willing to pay 150,000 taels, or even 200,000 taels…”

Lin Xiu looked at him, suddenly smiled, and said, “It’s so expensive, then I won’t buy it…”
