The Peerless Concubine of the King's Favorite

Chapter 77 Winning the right to trade wisely, the covenant in the bamboo forest (5)
auction?What is an auction?No one in Middle-earth knows.

But even so, the news quickly spread throughout Anning City as if it had grown wings.And what the Chu family said next caused a sensation in Anning City again.

Only those whose assets exceed [-] taels of silver can enter the auction and see what an auction is.

However, the items to be auctioned are said to be the most valuable among the overseas items this time.

There was almost no need for the Chu family to do any more publicity. The entire Anning City, as well as the foreign businessmen stranded in the city, began to calculate their net worth, waiting for the arrival in three days.

On the second day, the invitation cards prepared overnight were also delivered to the Third Prince and Master Liu.The presence of these two figures undoubtedly created momentum for the mysterious auction.

As soon as the three-day period agreed with Shui Qianliu arrived, Chu Qing sat in a small car with green eaves in the dark and asked Fusu to drive to the bamboo forest in the suburbs.

In the car, besides Chu Qing, there was also Ming Liu.

"Miss, what kind of master do you think Mr. Shui will bring? Could it be the kind of vicious uncle with scars on his face?" Ming Liu Xiaozui chirped in Chu Qing's ear.

Chu Qing laughed: "Why do I feel that the person you describe is a bandit?"

Ming Liu curled her lips: "Isn't that true of all people in the Jianghu?"

Chu Qing looked at her, wondering in her heart, this girl's eyes are always like this when she sees people in Jianghu?Why does she feel that the people in the world she has met are either personable or generous?

Before he could speak in the future, Xiao Nizi sighed again: "It's just an accident that a heavenly person like Mr. Shui is just an accident. I think most people in the world still look like that."

Chu Qing shook her head and chuckled, it seemed that this girl was quite confused by Shui Qianliu.Of course, she knew in her heart that Mingliu and Shui Qianliu were like the relationship between a fan and a celebrity, and the person this little girl really cared about was driving outside.

"Woo—" The carriage stopped slowly.

The rustling sound of bamboo leaves came from outside, letting Chu Qing know that the place had arrived.

Sure enough, Fusu's voice came: "Miss, the bamboo forest has arrived, but Mr. Shui is nowhere to be seen." In the voice, there was still some excitement, and I don't know if it was because I saw the number one master in the world again, or because I was finally able to learn martial arts, which made this usually steady , Smart boy, become like this.

With the support of Ming Liu, Chu Qing stepped out of the carriage, looked around, and was immediately bewildered by the beauty of the bamboo forest.Although it was night at the moment, but because of the clear light in the middle of the moon, she could clearly see the dense bamboo forest glowing with silver light and emerald green.

Tonight was the first time she saw the bamboo forest with her own eyes. The last time she came, she stayed in the car and didn't take a look.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew up, rolling up the bamboo leaves on the ground and swirling in the air. The wind mixed with fine sand forced the three of them to raise their hands, cover their faces with their sleeves, and close their eyes to avoid the weird wind.

A moment later, everything was calm.When Chu Qing put down his sleeves, he realized that there were three more figures in the open space in front of the carriage, among them the one standing in the middle was naturally Shui Qianliu in white robe.

On the left and right of him stood an indifferent man in a black robe holding a sword, and a pretty girl in a short red skirt.

She was looking at the two of them, and the girl in red was also looking at her, her sly and beautiful eyes were very bright.It's just that the cool man in black didn't seem to be affected by anything, his cold and tough facial features showed no expression, and his eyes didn't know where to look.

"Duan Dao and Jiu Jiu will be by your side from now on, waiting for orders." Shui Qian Liu said with a smile.

Chu Qing took a few steps forward, stood opposite Shui Qianliu, his eyes continued to scrutinize Duan Dao and Jiu Jiu.After a few breaths, she looked at Shui Qianliu, and said with a serious expression: "The woman stays, and the man changes."

The corners of Shui Qianliu's mouth twitched, and Jiujiu in red covered her lips and smiled lightly, but the ice-like broken knife finally gave her a look because she understood those words clearly.

"Reason." Shui Qianliu said in a deep voice.

Chu Qing glanced at Duan Dao, and said bluntly: "Look at his unwilling expression, as if I forced a good man into prostitution. I can't even eat with such a person all day long. I still expect him to protect me ? I'm afraid he might not even listen to what I say."

Shui Qianliujun's face darkened upon hearing the obscene words from Chu Qing, and he gritted his teeth and asked, "Where did you learn these words?"

Chu Qing turned her eyes to look at him, the meaning in her eyes was obvious, 'You want to care? '

Shui Qianliu took a deep breath, it was good.This girl is getting bolder and bolder.

Hiding the emotions in his heart, Shui Qianliu put on a smiling face: "Duan Dao is very skilled, I can rest assured that he is by your side."

After that, he put away his smile again, and told Duan Dao in a cold voice: "Duan Dao, since your new master doesn't care about your cold face, learn how to smile. I can let Jiu Jiu teach you about this. Listen to what your new master says."

Duan Dao pursed his lips into a line, and responded with a constipated expression.Seeing this scene, Jiujiu laughed out loud regardless of his image.

The two people's respect for Shui Qianliu made Chu Qing frowned. For the first time, she asked herself in her heart, is this person surnamed Shui really just a knight-errant?

She originally thought that he would introduce some masters he met in the Jianghu to work for her.But the two people in front of him were obviously not his friends, but subordinates.Moreover, since they were brought by Shui Qianliu, I am afraid that the skills of the two of them are far beyond what I imagined.

Chu Qing's silence made Shui Qianliu mistakenly think that she still rejected Duan Dao in her heart.He gave Jiujiu a wink, and the latter understood.Immediately walked in front of Chu Qing, bowed and shouted: "Jiujiu has seen the master."

I'm used to hearing people call her Miss, but this sudden "Master" woke up Chu Qing from her wandering thoughts.Nodding lightly, he accepted the wine.

Jiu Jiu smiled, revealing the dimples on his cheeks, stood up straight, walked behind Chu Qing automatically, and stood with Ming Liu.Under the latter's curious scrutiny, she smiled sweetly, such a generous demeanor made Ming Liu bow her head in embarrassment.

Jiujiu's initiative made Duandao also come out under Shui Qianliu's gaze, stood in front of Chu Qing, and saluted with fists cupped: "Duandao has met Miss."

He didn't address Chu Qing as Master, but Miss.This is to tell Chu Qing that he stayed because of Shui Qianliu's order, not anything else.

Regarding this, Shui Qianliu raised his lips and remained silent.And Chu Qing didn't care.

As far as she is concerned, as long as this person is an obedient thug, it will be fine.

When Duan Dao finally stood behind Chu Qing, she turned around and gave him the first task: "Duan Dao, you are responsible for handing over some self-defense skills to Fusu. You don't need to train him to become a master, just It’s enough to have a certain ability to protect yourself.”

"Thank you, miss, thank you, master!" Fu Su knelt on the ground excitedly, and kowtowed three times to Chu Qing.
