Chapter 69.2 - Two birds flying together
Shopkeeper Jin saw and nodded before soundlessly, moved her eyes away.
“This is Jinsi building’s newest jewelry set for this year, called “two birds flying together”, the starting price is 1000 silver taels, the auction -- begins now!”
After shopkeeper Jin finished speaking, the Nie Zhen’er in front of Lou Qingwu, immediately shouted, “2000 silver taels!”
She’d waited for so long and finally, no matter what, she’d definitely get that “two birds flying together” set for herself!
In a few days, when she’d enter the palace, she definitely had to be the brightest and most outstanding girl of all the other n.o.ble girls!
Lou Qingwu heard Nie Zhen’er’s incredibly excited voice and coldly smiled.
She stood there quietly, as if she was completely disinterested in this “two birds flying together” piece.
The masked man had his eyes closed from the very beginning but from some unknown time, had already opened them and watched Lou Qingwu’s head.
His originally calm and motionless eyes, suddenly flashed a light as they brought excitement and interest, like a languid leopard watching its prey.
After more bidding, Nie Zhen’er continued to lead by a large margin.
Her original bid of a thousand silver taels grew and grew to become twenty thousand silver taels.
Then no one dared to bid against her.
Even though the number one JInsi building's jewelry pieces were intricately carved and hard to find with thousands of gold; twenty thousand taels for a single jewelry set was too expensive.
Furthermore, this was only the first piece being auctioned so they weren’t anxious.
So if no one bidded against Nie Zhen’er, she’d most likely be able to easily get the “two birds flying together” set.
But of course, there is always the unexpected.
Lou Qingwu watched Nie Zhen’er’s determined face and need to want - at any cost and curved her mouth.
This world, ah, the most painful thing was to want and not get, even after hatching a thousand schemes.
So if she wanted this “two birds flying together” set, how could she let her be disappointed?
“Twenty thousand, going once.”
“Twenty thousand, going twice …”
“If no one’s bidding a price higher than Miss Nie’s bid, then this “two birds flying together” wil …”
Nie Zhen’er stared fixedly at the jewelry box in shopkeeper Jin’s hands, the greed in her eyes wanted nothing more than to put the set on her body as soon as possible.
She couldn’t wait for the “two birds flying together” to be hers.
But …
“I’ll bid twenty one thousand silver taels.”
A cool voice was like a strike of lightning, exploding next to Nie Zhen’er’s ear.
She suddenly came back to her senses and whipped her head backwards to face the person who dared to s.n.a.t.c.h from her.
But when she saw Lou Qingwu, she screeched, “Why is it you?”
“Why can’t it be me?” She calmly stood up, Lou Qingwu in her maid servant’s outfit, but her elegant aura made everyone easily ignore her clothes.
Their attention was held by her, her aura and clothes clas.h.i.+ng in a way that made people even more curious about her ident.i.ty.
Nie Zhen’er mockingly laughed, “Twenty one thousand, are you sure that such a little maid like yourself can afford that?”
Lou Qingwu: “You can try.”
Nie Zhen’er gripped her handkerchief, trying to decipher whether or not she spoke the truth.
If she really could take out so much money and she gave up, wouldn’t she just be basically giving up “two birds flying together” to her too easily?
Giving side to a lowly and cheap maid?
Wouldn’t that be hitting her own face?
No!
She definitely wouldn’t let that happen.
She sucked in a deep breath, straightened her back and derisively continued to shout, “This miss will bid twenty two thousand taels.”
Lou Qingwu’s calm eyes lifted up, “Twenty three thousand taels.”
