Chapter 351 The highest bidder wins
A roar shook the yard into silence, and everyone turned their eyes to the disheveled, angry little Taoist boy.

Seeing this situation, Chaoyan was secretly delighted. She quietly took out a handful of melon seeds and hid in the crowd to watch the show.

Yang Jinfan had dark circles under his eyes and glared at these people. Each of them had a hateful look on his face.

In fact, she was not asleep, but she was pretending, so of course she had to pretend to be asleep.

Everyone was at a loss as to what to do, frozen in place.

Yang Jinfan was impatient: "Whatever you want to say, come one by one!"

The young servant was the first to react. He knelt down in front of Yang Jinfan and said anxiously, "Master, my brother is ill and in critical condition. Please save him, Master!"

Yang Jinfan's expression eased a little and he wanted to help him up.

"Boom!"

The floor shook a little, and another person knelt in front of her, crying loudly.

"Master, my mother has been ill for a long time. She woke up last night with a startle. She looked like she was not ill at all, but her face was rosy and radiant. I am worried that she is recovering from her illness. My mother is the only relative left in the world, and I really don't want her to leave me. Please, Master, save my mother!"

Seeing him crying so sadly, Yang Jinfan's heart softened and he turned around to help him.

Before he touched his sleeve, someone next to him started howling again.

"Little Master, please save my child! His stomach has swelled up for no reason. I have consulted many famous doctors but it is useless. No one knows what is in his stomach. I have used needles and taken medicine, but nothing works. On the contrary, it has weakened the child's body. I am a useless father. I only hope that my child can be safe and healthy. Even if I have to pay with my life, I will have no regrets!"

Yang Jinfan felt compassion when he heard his words. Just as he was about to let him go and take a look, another person came and started howling.

"Little Master, please save my mother! My mother's health is getting worse and worse. She can't eat or sleep. Her hands and feet are cold all day long. She even vomited blood in the middle of the night! My mother has been kind all her life, and has never enjoyed a single day of happiness for her children. Now she is sick all over her old age. As a son, I can't bear it! Please, little master, save my mother! I'm willing to do anything you ask me to do!"

Others also rushed to say: "Me too!"

"I do too!"

"..."

"Since you are all willing, then follow my rules. The one who is destined to meet you today will be the one who offers the highest price."

Tao Suer's fairy-like figure walked out from the inner room, her voice mixed with a hint of indifference.

True and false, false and true, she is not really a half-immortal, and they... are not really in trouble!

Everyone was shocked, who is this... ?
Chaoyan put away the melon seeds and quickly walked in front of Tao Suer to block everyone's view.

"This is none other than Tao Banxian!"

Yang Jinfan tried hard to open his eyes, but the feeling of fatigue could not be dispelled.

"Everyone, since Tao Banxian has spoken, please follow the rules. As Tao Banxian's servants, we cannot make decisions on our own. Please, everyone."

Yang Jinfan made a "please" gesture, signaling the few people who had cried the loudest to go into the inner hall.

The other people in the yard were stunned for a moment before they reacted and ran towards the inner hall.

Yang Jinfan and Chao Yan looked at their backs as they chased each other, not knowing what expression to make.

"Master, Yue Pan and Xing Nuo sent a letter. They have returned to Yinan Town and brought their sick parents and younger brother back to Guxi Village. They will come over after you have settled everything here."

"Hmm. What do Master Jun and Master Yao say?"

"My lady, Master Yao's situation in Shangjing was already bad. Now because of the Ezhou incident, although Master Yao has made contributions, he is also suspected by that person. Master Jun is always by his side, so it is not easy for him to act rashly. The officials in the Ezhou area have been subjected to an unprecedented 'baptism', which has alarmed the master behind them. In recent days, the court has been somewhat turbulent."

Ezhou and other parts of Beifeng Kingdom have suffered varying degrees of devastation from this large-scale plague and are no longer as healthy as before.

In other words, it can no longer withstand any natural disasters or man-made calamities and is in urgent need of recuperation.

Although the epidemic has been eradicated, many places have not been able to completely eliminate the evil spirit, and the epidemic is still rampant. The real master of Ezhou can no longer sit still, stirring up the situation in the court and trying to get other officials to report to put pressure on those who moved him. It is inevitable.

"Are they alright?"

Zhao Yan smiled and said, "Miss, don't worry about that. The two gentlemen have the medicine you gave them to protect themselves, so they will be fine. But the two gentlemen are worried about you, so they asked you to take good care of yourself. If you have any difficulties here, you can tell them and they will help you."

"Well, I'm glad they're okay. When I enter the Wang family, I'll write to them to let them know I'm safe. By the way, ask my senior sister to help me check on the noblewoman who married into the Wang family. I want every detail."

"Yes."

Over here, those people had already taken their seats in the inner hall. They were quite good at taking care of themselves. Those who shouted the loudest sat on chairs, while those who watched the show stood aside.

Yang Jinfan ignored them and went back to the house to wash and dress before leaving.

The people in the hall automatically made way for Yang Jinfan, and Tao Suer also came out.

"Please follow my rules. The bidding will start immediately."

The Wang family's servant was so anxious that he shouted, "I'll give you five taels of silver!"

Butler Wang has instructed that Tao Banxian must be invited back to the Wang family today no matter what. This amount of money is almost a year's expenses for a commoner.

"I'll give you ten taels of silver!"

Then someone shouted out a price twice as high, and everyone present was shocked.

The price was five or ten taels, and only the rich or noble could get it. Even if the common people had some spare money at home, they could not take it out at this moment. If they accidentally offended the noble, they would be the only ones to suffer.

Of the ones who had originally shouted the loudest, only two were still bidding, and the other two were so anxious that they didn't know what to do.

The patients at home can’t wait, and they can’t afford the money!
What should we do?

"Boom!"

The floor shook, and the young man who said his mother had a last burst of vitality knelt down in front of Yang Jinfan, tears in his eyes.

"Master, please save my mother. I really can't leave her!"

Seeing that he was sincere, Yang Jinfan calculated quietly with his hands under his sleeves and found that what he said was true.

But now is not the time.

"Blessings and blessings to the infinite Heavenly Lord, we are at the disposal of Immortal Tao Banxian."

After saying that, she lowered her eyes and stopped looking at him.

The young man felt as if struck by lightning. His last hope was shattered. His face turned ashen and he collapsed to the ground with a dull look in his eyes.

The one who was talking about the child also had a dejected look on his face. Knowing that this bidding was hopeless, he could only bow his head and sigh.

Yang Jinfan didn't even look at him, but lowered his head silently, waiting for the two bidders to compete.

"I'll give you twenty taels!"

"I'll give you thirty taels!"

"I'll give you fifty taels!"

"I'll give you one hundred taels!"

"..."

Neither of them gave in, and finally raised the price to one thousand five hundred taels.

The servant of the Wang family was trembling with fear and was very nervous.
