Chapter 175 Taken advantage of
Looking at He Yuyan's adorable, stunned expression.
Jiang Yuanye smiled and said, "Sister He, please accept it!"
You don't need to pay me back, this is a gift for you!
Hearing him say he would give it to her, He Yuyan's eyes lit up.
"Young Master, don't worry, I will definitely pay you back for the medicine later..."
Dingxiang, who was standing nearby, became anxious upon hearing this.
Is the girl perhaps mentally unstable?
This isn't ten thousand taels, it's one hundred thousand taels of silver. How could she possibly repay it?
"No, no need, I really wanted to give it to you."
If you don't accept it, I'll eat it right now...
Jiang Yuanye picked up the pill and made a move to swallow it.
"Oh, young master, you..."
Dingxiang, who was standing nearby, screamed in fright.
He Yuyan glanced at Dingxiang.
She looked at Jiang Yuanye and said helplessly, "Young Master, please don't do this, I'll accept it."
He Yuyan had no choice but to accept his offer.
Private room on the second floor.
"Lingfu, have the shopkeeper come over here. I have something to show him."
Looking at the box in Wu Weiwei's hand, Ling Fu curved her lips into an "O" shape.
"Auntie, what are you going to do..."
A smile appeared on Wu Weiwei's lips.
Instead of waiting to sell it cheaply at retail later.
It's better to take advantage of the opportunity now and make a good profit.
Just as Jiang Yuanye and his group finished the handover and were about to leave.
The judge hurriedly walked onto the stage with a box in hand.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have received a special item that needs to be auctioned."
"What item? Was it added temporarily?"
The female auctioneer looked down at the people peering curiously at the box in her hand.
Open the box.
Then, three perfectly round, white pills, translucent and clear, were instantly revealed to everyone.
"These are the pills I just received."
It is called An Sheng Relief Pill, and has been authenticated by a professional doctor at the auction house.
This pill has the same effect as the ginseng relief pill we just discussed.
Its effects even surpass those of the black pill from before…
"Really? Let me try a bite before I believe you..."
The spoiled young master at the auction opened his eyes wide and shouted loudly.
“My esteemed guest, I assure you of the reputation of Jubaolou.”
There is no deception or trickery here…
"You mean the white life-saving pill is better than the black one?"
"Yes."
"Because there are three pills, the starting bid is for three."
The starting price is 50,000 taels of silver, with each bid increment being 2,000 taels. Begin!
As soon as the auctioneer's gavel fell, people started calling out bids.
"Who did this?"
Why not auction them all together instead of selling them one by one?
"..."
As everyone began to discuss it.
Soon, the white life-saving pill was photographed.
"My God, it's actually Prince Min."
"Congratulations, Your Highness Prince Min, on successfully acquiring three An Sheng Relief Pills at the high price of 100,000 taels of silver!"
As the female auctioneer's alluring voice rang out, everyone cast envious glances at Prince Min.
At this moment, Jiang Yuanhua and He Yuyan, who had returned to the audience, were pale-faced.
He Yuyan, in particular, felt like she had been tricked.
This one pill of hers is worth 100,000 taels of silver.
The three pills from the King of Kemin cost only 100,000 taels, and it is said that they are even more effective than hers.
How could she possibly swallow this insult?
Who exactly owns this pill?
Why play such a game with yourself?
"Sister He, it seems like we've been tricked..."
He Yuyan gave him a wry smile.
"Yes, we've been tricked and made the fools..."
After the auction, King Min left happily with the pills he had purchased.
He Yuyan remained in her seat.
"Sister He, let me take you home!"
"No need, I'll stay a little longer."
Seeing that she kept staring at the private room upstairs, Jiang Yuanhua knew who she was waiting for.
After a while.
The curtain of the private room on the second floor was lifted from the inside.
A maid dressed in a pink dress came out first.
Behind her followed a graceful figure that He Yuyan recognized.
"Auntie, young lady, isn't that..."
Dingxiang's eyes widened.
He Yuyan pursed her lips tightly, her hands clenching unconsciously inside her sleeves.
Even when my nails dig into my flesh, I don't feel any pain.
It's Wu Weiwei.
It was her.
"Sister He, do you know her?"
Although Jiang Yuanhua also thought the woman who came out of the private room was extremely beautiful.
But beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and he still preferred Sister He.
Not only do I know her, but Wu Weiwei is my nemesis.
"Young Master, that is Consort Wu, the heir of our Marquis's mansion."
She's always disliked our daughter, and today she did it again..."
Seeing He Yuyan's darkening face, Dingxiang dared not say anything more.
He Yuyan and her men blocked the stairwell.
"Wu Weiwei, why did you do this?"
Since Wu Weiwei dared to walk down in front of everyone, she wasn't afraid that He Yuyan would find out that she was the one who tricked her.
"Sister He, what are you saying?"
This is an auction; why can't I be interested in something you're interested in?
"Then why didn't you bid again?"
How could He Yuyan possibly believe that she didn't do it on purpose?
If it wasn't intentional, when Jiang Yuanhua shouted 100,000 taels, she could have kept adding more, couldn't she?
Listen to her.
Wu Weiwei looked at her with pity, as if she were an idiot.
"Sister He, how can you be so childish..."
Although I want those Po Chai Ginseng Pills, my money doesn't grow on trees.
You should know, that's 100,000 taels.
One hundred thousand taels of silver is enough for an ordinary person to live on for a lifetime.
It suddenly occurred to me that making money isn't easy.
After thinking about it carefully, I decided I should just keep the pills for you!
"you……"
She did it on purpose, she absolutely did it on purpose!
He Yuyan felt her blood surging.
It seems that Wu Weiwei felt she should be the one to take the fall.
Seeing her so angry, Jiang Yuanhua quickly stepped forward to comfort her.
"Sister He, don't be angry."
It's not worth ruining your health over such a wicked woman!
Hearing Jiang Yuanhua's words, Ling Fu frowned and was about to step forward.
But Wu Weiwei stopped her.
"You're calling me a bad woman?"
Wu Weiwei looked at the sycophant next to He Yuyan.
"What, am I wrong?"
You're just a scheming and wicked woman.
You not only lied to Sister He, but you also tricked me into spending 100,000 taels of silver to bid for that pill.
There has never been a woman as vicious and wicked as you in the entire Great Wei Dynasty…
"Heh, if I'm a bad woman, then what are you?"
Wu Weiwei laughed in exasperation and retorted with a question.
"Me? I'm the young master of the Earl's mansion..."
Wu Weiwei looked at them and scoffed.
"The Earl of the Earl's Mansion can openly flirt with other people's concubines."
Is it possible to disregard one's own impoverished financial situation and spend a fortune to buy a gift to give away?
If she wasn't mistaken, Jiang Yuanhua's 100,000 taels of silver today had already emptied their Earl's mansion's coffers.
I'm afraid that when he returns to the Earl's mansion, the matter will surely cause a great deal of unrest in the household.
She can simply sit back and watch the show.
"You, you, what does this have to do with you?"
Jiang Yuanhua's voice lacked confidence, and he even appeared somewhat embarrassed.
He Yuyan felt a vague unease as she listened to their conversation.
Was the Jiang family not a hereditary earldom?
Could it be that they don't even have 100,000 taels of silver in savings?
