How could my childhood sweetheart be the current empress?

A loud voice suddenly sounded, and the bid was even more generous, directly offering five thousand taels, which was fifty times the starting price.

Everyone looked at this person, and saw that he was a young man with a pale face and the words "kidney deficiency" on his face. He just laughed and said:

"This woman belongs to me, no one can snatch her away from me."

"Wait, he seems to be the second young master of the Jia family, Jia Wansan."

At this time, someone in the crowd recognized this man's identity. He was Jia Wansan, the second son of Jia Wanyi, the richest businessman in the capital.

You ask why the second son is named Jia Wansan instead of Jia Waner?

This is not nonsense. The father is called Jia Wanyi, the eldest son is Jia Waner, so the second son must be Jia Wansan, right?

It is said that the second young master of the Jia family was engaged to the eldest daughter of the Xiangguo Mansion, but for some unknown reason, the engagement was later cancelled.

Jia Wansan is a love-struck man who hangs out in brothels in the capital every day. Even if he really gets married, he will definitely not change his bad habits.

It’s a good thing that the eldest daughter of the prime minister’s family didn’t marry him, so as to avoid being harmed by him.

"I'll pay ten thousand taels."

At the front of the crowd, a wealthy businessman thought for a moment and slowly offered a higher price.

But such a calm voice doubled the price at once!

This is ten thousand taels, not ten thousand coins. Many people present here cannot come up with this amount of taels even if they spend all their family fortunes.

The people below were all dumbfounded. They knew that a tough guy had arrived this time.

"Fifteen thousand taels!"

Jia Wansan's voice was a little hesitant, but he still shouted out.

Every time he took action, he succeeded in defeating the opponent directly. But this time, he obviously met a tough opponent.

"Hmph, twenty thousand taels."

Before Jia Wansan could finish his words, a middle-aged man with luxurious clothes and thick muscles made another bid.

This man is the owner of Zuixianlou, the number one restaurant in the capital. He is extremely wealthy and is also an imperial businessman.

But if we talk about who is richer, it must be the Jia family.

However, Jia Wansan was only the second young master of the Jia family, while the other party was the owner of Zuixianlou and the person who truly held power.

"I'll pay thirty thousand taels!"

Jia Wansan raised three fingers and shouted through gritted teeth.

At this moment, everyone around couldn't help but stand there in a daze. Thirty thousand taels was definitely not a small amount of money. It was enough to open a small restaurant in the most prosperous area of ​​the capital.

No matter how beautiful Yu Xianglan was, what she was selling was her first time after all. It was obviously not worth it to give up a small restaurant for a night of passion.

All I can say is that there are two types of rich people: one is the rich person, and the other is the truly rich person.

"Forty thousand taels."

The shopkeeper smiled and immediately raised the price, confronting Jia Wansan head-on.

At the same time, the people around were stunned.

They thought Jia Wansan was sure to win, but someone richer than him showed up unexpectedly.

There is always a mountain higher than the other.

"You fat pig, how dare you steal my woman? Believe it or not, I will make sure you don't suffer the consequences!"

Jia Wansan broke down on the spot and shouted angrily at the other party.

"Poor bastard, get out!"

In response, the shopkeeper raised a fat middle finger at Jia Wansan with disdain.

“You…you you, ah!”

Jia Wansan pointed at the other person with his hand, and his blood rushed to his heart, blood spurted out of his mouth, his legs went weak, and he fell to the ground.

He was the second young master of the Jia family and had a great reputation all his life, but to be called a poor bastard was a complete bummer. He was completely disappointed.

Chapter 165: First of all, I am a wild goose

"Master, Master, are you okay?"

The servants that Jia Wansan brought with him hurriedly helped the young master who was lying on the ground to his feet and evacuated the scene.

Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but shake their heads.

The second generation of rich people are just the second generation of rich people after all, and they cannot beat the first generation of rich people.

Forty thousand taels, the scene fell into silence for a moment.

At this price, not only them, but even the madam of Huayinglou obviously didn't expect that the price would be raised to such a high level in the end.

In the brothel owner's expectation, she would definitely make a profit if she could get 5,000 taels. If it was 10,000 taels, she would be very happy.

But she never expected that the final bid would be raised to 40,000 taels, and it was just for a night of good times.

The shopkeeper of Zuixianlou felt extremely distressed about this. Although it was to suppress the Jia family, it was not worth it.

At this moment, he just wanted to slap himself hard in the face. Is it worth it for a woman?

After a long time, no one continued to bid.

Unless they are all fools, spending 40,000 taels just for a night of good times, even if she is inlaid with gold and diamonds, it is definitely not worth the price.

At this time, the brothel owner was very happy. Seeing that no one was raising the price, she announced to everyone:

"Then I declare that Miss Yu Xianglan will be..."

"I'll pay fifty thousand taels."

At this moment, a voice suddenly rang out. Although it was not loud, it stunned everyone present.

Everyone looked at the person who spoke. He was a very young man, and his clothes were much more ordinary compared to those of everyone else present.

If there is anything outstanding about the other person, it would probably be that he is handsome.

Seeing the young man dressed like this, everyone couldn't help but doubt whether he could really come up with 50,000 taels.

When the owner of Zuixianlou saw that someone finally competed with him in bidding, he looked at the other party as if he had found a sucker. He acted impulsively for a moment, but now he has calmed down.

When the brothel owner saw the young man who made the bid, she was stunned.

No, young master, why are you here to join in the fun? This is forty thousand taels, enough to cover the operating expenses of Huaying Studio for several months.

With this move, forty thousand taels are simply wasted.

You said you have 50,000 taels? This Huaying Tower belongs to the young master. If he pays 50,000 taels, it is equivalent to taking the money out of his left pocket and putting it in his right pocket. Is there any difference?

The young man was none other than Xu Chengling, the real owner behind Huaying Tower.

The brothel owner was very confused. She wondered what kind of magic power Yu Xianglan had that could make the young master give up the 40,000 taels given to him for free and take a picture of her.

But she couldn't say much, after all, it was the young master's decision.

"This gentleman is offering fifty thousand taels. Is there anyone else who wants to bid?"

The bustard smiled and looked around, but no one made another bid.

Unless you are a fool, fifty thousand taels is nothing. It is enough for you to live a life of wealth and glory in the capital.

In the end, because no one continued to bid, Xu Chengling won Yu Xianglan's virginity.

"How could it be him?"

Sakura Hanyu stood above, looking at the man below with some disbelief at the man who offered 50,000 taels for her. It was none other than Mr. Xu, whom she had met once before.

This Mr. Xu had some knowledge of Izumo culture and left a deep impression on her.

But Hanyu Sakura never expected that the other party would offer 50,000 taels for her virginity.

She had already prepared herself mentally, but when she found out that the person was Xu Chengling, Hanyu Sakura couldn't help but reveal a complicated look.

Since the result has been decided, there is no need for Hanyu Sakura to stay here any longer, so she turns around and leaves.

She returned to her room, took a bath, changed into an Izumo kimono, and waited for his arrival.

At this time, everyone looked at the young man who bid 50,000 taels, and expressions of shock appeared on their faces.

So the question is, can this young man come up with 50,000 taels?

You know, Huayinglou doesn't accept credit for such a large amount.

If you cannot come up with the money today, you will be put on Huayinglou's list of dishonest persons and will never be allowed to set foot in Huayinglou again.

As for the ownership of Yuxianglan, we can just start discussing the bidding again.

The bustard, with a rosy face, walked through the crowd, came to Xu Chengling, and said with a smile:

"Congratulations, sir, for taking Miss Yu Xianglan's virginity. But you should also understand the rules of our Huayinglou..."

The rules mentioned by the brothel owner are, of course, that you have to pay first and then inspect the goods.

Although Xu Chengling is nominally the owner of Huayinglou, he still comes to Huayinglou as a guest and naturally has to abide by the rules of Huayinglou.

In response to this question, Xu Chengling just smiled and said to the brothel owner:

"I have asked someone to go back and get the money, and it will be delivered to you soon."

He had asked Tongxin to go back and take out 50,000 taels from the treasury of the Xiangguo Mansion in his name.

These fifty thousand taels were not a huge loss to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and to put it bluntly, this process was just taking money from his left pocket and putting it into his right pocket.

After a period of time, the fifty thousand taels will flow back to the treasury of the Prime Minister's Mansion in other ways.

After a while, Tong Xin really took out 50,000 taels and handed the money to the madam of Huayinglou in front of everyone.

Now, no one had any doubts anymore.

The brothel owner accepted the huge sum of money. Although she had a big smile on her face, she was crying in her heart. Forty thousand taels, just gone like that.

"Sir, Miss Xianglan is already waiting for you in the room. You can stay here until tomorrow."

After saying that, the brothel owner led Xu Chengling to the room where Yu Xianglan was, amid the envious gazes of everyone.

They were so envious when they thought that the courtesan in their minds would have someone else in the future.

But Xu Chengling didn't care about their gazes and followed the brothel owner to the door of Yu Xianglan's room.

The reason why he took the photo of Yu Xianglan was for no other reason than to get to know her more deeply.

Then, find out the organization behind her.

Before that, he still needs to gain the other party's trust, and this time is a good opportunity.

Xu Chengling pushed the door open, walked into the room, and locked the door gently.

As soon as he entered the room, he smelled a pleasant scent of incense, as well as the faint body fragrance of the woman mixed in with the incense.

He saw that the gauze curtain in front had been removed, and Hanyu Sakura, wearing a cherry blossom-colored kimono, was sitting in front of him on her knees, with a beautiful blush on her delicate cheeks.

"Mr. Xu, I didn't expect it to be you. Please sit down."

Sakura Hanyu opened her lips slightly and said with a complicated expression on her face.

Unlike her sitting posture which seemed strange to outsiders, Xu Chengling sat directly in front of her and said:

"Ms. Hanyu, this kimono looks really good on you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Hanyu Sakura couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, looking at the man in front of her with some surprise.

It turned out that he knew that the dress she was wearing was called a kimono, and he praised her kimono for being very beautiful.

"Thank you for your compliment, Master Xu."

Sakura Hanyu couldn't help but smile and felt very happy. This was actually the first time that she and her country's culture were recognized by others.

And the kimono she was wearing also had other meanings.

"This is Sakura's favorite kimono. It was left to her by her mother. Whenever she wears it, her heart becomes calm."

"I see……"

Xu Chengling sat down and chatted with Hanyu Sakura for a long time.
