"But to invite her out, what do we use?" Ji Mo scratched his head and said, "Silver?"
"You are absolutely right! We use silver! "Chu Yang nodded.
Ji Mo was dumbfounded. He thought it would be some beautiful woman coming to write poems or something like that. Using silver was something he thought was impossible. Who would have thought that it was actually the case?
"This is a place where the zither master cultivates her zither, but it is also a place where she accumulates wealth!" Chu Yang said in a low voice, "Legend has it that when the zither master first appeared here, the fee for one song was ten thousand taels of silver!"
"Ten thousand taels?!" Luo Ke Di's eyes widened, "Damn! After listening to her zither music, one could directly become a Martial King? "
"Ten thousand taels is expensive?" Chu Yang looked at him, "From then on, the zither master would not bid for anything less than ten thousand taels! But the nobles of Iron Cloud Citadel never got tired of this and even competed with each other … The zither master's income became higher and higher … Plus, this House of Exceptional Beauties has more than one zither master! "
"After the zither master finishes playing, the highest bidder can listen to her song alone! This song is called 'Lone Wolf'; it is a symbol of status. As for the rest, there are too many girls to choose from. Even though they only sell their skills and not their bodies, if they like you, then this can be discussed … "Chu Yang laughed.
"…" Luo Ke Di's eyes widened, "If they like you … you also need silver, right?"
"Nonsense!" Chu Yang glared at him with annoyance.
"Truly brilliant …" The four of them sucked in a breath of cold air. Yes, they only sell their skills and not their bodies. However, if you are sincere enough, then the beauty will fall in love with you and you can give her away. However, how much silver would you need to spend to make up for this? This was really hard to say.
"This zither can also be … given away?" Ji Mo asked.
"This is not possible!" Chu Yang shook his head, "This is absolutely impossible. Don't even think about it."
"Boss, it seems like you are the true master of Moon Breeze." Rui Bu Tong said with admiration.
Chu Yang smiled bitterly; he did not expect himself to be a master of Moon Breeze. If he wanted to take over this House of Exceptional Beauties, how could he not know all the rules?
Just as the five of them were whispering to each other, someone had already raised a card.
"Ten thousand taels! Yes, Boss Qian offers ten thousand taels. "
"Fifteen thousand taels! Official Wang has already bid fifteen thousand taels!"
"…"
"So rich!" Ji Mo stuck out his tongue. He was a descendant of a super aristocratic family, and his background was more profound than these people's. But, if he were to take out ten thousand taels of silver just to listen to a song … he reckoned that he would be skinned alive when he returned home …
"Duke Lian has already bid thirty thousand taels! Are there any higher bids? "someone shouted from the stage.
Chu Yang blinked his eyes and said, "Look at brother's generosity!" Suddenly he raised his card and shouted, "One hundred thousand taels!"
Sitting in front of the stage, a young lady was shaking her head and chuckling softly. She was saying something to the person beside her. He was the one who offered the thirty thousand taels of silver. Thirty thousand taels of silver was already considered very high, and he was already very confident. Who would've thought that a hundred thousand taels would suddenly pop out of nowhere? He couldn't help but frown. He then turned around to look at Chu Yang.
"This gentleman offers a hundred thousand taels! One hundred thousand taels! Is there a higher one? "The graceful woman on the stage was also shocked, but she still managed to react immediately.
Jumping from thirty thousand to one hundred thousand taels of silver … this was really … the first time!
"One hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver!" Duke Lian stared at Chu Yang with burning anger.
"Three hundred thousand taels of silver!" Chu Yang sneered.
The entire hall was silent! Three hundred thousand taels of silver just to listen to a song … this kind of behavior could no longer be described as prodigal.
Duke Lian's face darkened. He fiercely glared at Chu Yang. His expression was cold. He turned his head and sat down. He whispered to himself, "Where did this little guy come from? Who knows this little guy? "
Several young men next to him shook their heads. One of them said, "He looks like a nouveau riche with a few taels of silver. Young master Lian, you will be able to crush him!"
Duke Lian sneered and said, "No one knows him?"
They all shook their heads.
Duke Lian smiled coldly.
He had been chasing after this zither master for half a year. In this half year, he had thrown in countless taels of silver. This year, the snow had sealed Iron Citadel. He knew that the zither master loved snow and was in a good mood. He wanted to come a few days ago, but the emperor had passed away and a new emperor had ascended the throne. This was a tense time; how could he dare to show off at this time? Therefore, as soon as the situation relaxed a little, he immediately rushed over excitedly and impatiently.
He did not expect that when he came here, an unknown country bumpkin would suddenly appear and steal his thunder!
"In this Iron Cloud Citadel, there is someone who dares to compete with me! Haha, I want to see who this person is! "Duke Lian sneered. He turned his head and said," Keep an eye on this little guy. After you are done, break his legs and bring him to my place! "
A man in black behind him looked coldly at Chu Yang. The corner of his mouth revealed a cold smile. He whispered, "Rest assured, Duke Lian."
How could Chu Yang not know that this zither master was the real boss of this House of Exceptional Beauties? This meeting was related to Chu Yang's future plans! Chu Yang was determined to win this meeting. He did not care how much money he had to pay. After all, it was not his own money; he was only paying for it first. This Duke Lian's family was so rich that Chu Yang did not mind going to his house at night.
Naturally, he did not care who he offended because of this …
There was only one wealthy family in Iron Cloud Citadel with the surname Lian: Minister of Revenue Lian Cheng Gui's family. This young man must be Lian Cheng Gui's son.
A Minister of Revenue … His son was able to spend one hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver just to listen to a song. His family's wealth could be imagined. But where did this money come from? The salary of a Minister of Revenue was only a few hundred taels of silver per year …
Minister Chu had not taken action for a long time. In this snowy weather, he wanted to find some entertainment for the officials and citizens of Iron Cloud Citadel. He also wanted to remind them, "Even if there is a change of dynasty, Bu Tian Pavilion is still Bu Tian Pavilion! King of Hell Chu is still King of Hell Chu! "
Plus, Chu Yang needed to use this big action to tell Diwu Qing Rou that King of Hell Chu was still in Iron Cloud …
This Duke Lian was using this as a stepping stone; Chu Yang was very happy!
"This Duke bid three hundred thousand taels! Is there anyone else … "The middle-aged woman on the stage stopped halfway through her sentence. Three hundred thousand taels to buy a song … Other than this second uncle, there was probably no one else who was this stupid.
He smiled and asked, "What is your surname?"
Chu Yang smiled, "My surname is Chu." As he said this, he took out a thick stack of banknotes and patted them in his hand. On the top of the stack, there were three words, "Ten thousand taels!"
"This young master came here to show his sincerity to House of Exceptional Beauties. Even if Miss Xiao Lu did not play the zither, this money would still belong to House of Exceptional Beauties!" Chu Yang smiled faintly. He casually handed the thick stack of banknotes to the young woman in white next to him and said, "No need to count, this is three hundred thousand taels. Miss Xiao Lu, please come out."
The young woman in white's hand trembled as she took the banknotes. This was the first time in her life that she had received such a large amount of banknotes; she could not help but be excited. She took it and brought it inside.
That Duke Lian looked on coldly. The corners of his mouth curled up into a smile as he muttered, "What a rich person. What I like the most … are rich people."
The young men beside him all felt that it was a pity. Such a good fat sheep, how could he provoke Lian Fan Lei? Why couldn't he provoke him? If that was the case … Wouldn't that silver be gold for him?
To be able to casually take out a few hundred thousand taels of banknotes, this fat sheep must be very fat … What a pity!
After a while, a puff sound suddenly came from the side of the stage in the hall. White smoke rose from the corners and immediately covered the stage.
Then, a thin layer of gauze slowly descended from above and gently covered the stage.
With a tinkling sound, a tall and graceful figure appeared in the middle of the stage and sat down leisurely. In the haze, it seemed that the zither master raised her eyes and looked at Chu Yang.
The gauze was gently closed and under the lingering smoke, it was impossible to see her face clearly. Only a pair of cold and clear eyes could be seen, like a cold pond in autumn, bottomless.
Then, a faint smell of sandalwood slowly spread out …
The hall was silent. Everyone's eyes were quietly looking at the seemingly illusory figure. In front of the zither, an infinitely beautiful figure sat upright …
Then, a "ding" sound was heard. The zither strings were slowly plucked and a zither sound came from afar.
This zither sound seemed to come from the heavens. It was subtle, but holy and noble. It was as if with just a gentle pluck of the zither, all the troubles of the world, all the vicissitudes of the world, all the matters of the world, all became fleeting clouds and smoke. Everything became ethereal.
The zither sound was faint and slowly spread out like smoke. It slowly floated out and gradually filled the entire hall.
Chu Yang slightly closed his eyes. His mind was involuntarily immersed in this beautiful zither sound. Before coming here, Chu Yang had never thought that a piece of music could have such great magical power. But now, he believed it.
It was just a prelude, but it was as if it had endless magical power, causing his heart to flutter along with it.
Softly, a voice came from the stage. It was faintly discernible and said indifferently, "This song is called 'Reincarnation'!"
The faint zither sound suddenly disappeared, but it seemed to still be reverberating. In an instant, the zither sound was even more subtle and slowly spread out again. This time, it was a completely different feeling from before!
Chu Yang seemed to see himself appearing in this world from nothing. A gentle hand hugged him. Then, in the next moment, he found himself in a world of ice and snow … The scenes of his previous life flashed through his mind like this, and no matter how big or small they were, no matter how small they were …
Endless thoughts came and swept through Chu Yang's body and mind in an instant.
