Chapter 6 - Chapter 6: The Sly Woman made a fortune!

The layout of the Auction hall is unique and enthralling. It doesn't seem like a cave at all. The entire interior of the cave makes one feel like they are in another space, in another dimension, in a different place.

The whole of the auction hall is lit up with the ancient torch from all sides making the cave hall glow and enchanting.

At the centre of the Auction hall lies a thick rocky stage for Auctioneer. There lies a three passage to the Auction hall; one is the passageway which is the entrance to the cave, another passage is for the Auctioneer which is directly linked to the stage and the third one is the passage which leads to a rocky room where all the valuable Auction items are well kept.

The leader walked straight and went passed the Auction hall. He continued to walk down the passage where all the valuable Auction items are kept. There he stops at the treasure room.

There were two men standing on guard right before the treasure room. They were dressed up in all dark brown robes and trousers with swords on their back. When they saw the leader holding an unconscious lady on his shoulder, the guard glared at the leader and spoke up in a hostile tone, "Show me the Amulet!"

The leader immediately took out the Amulet of Eagle bandit from his chest and show it to them. The two guards startled upon seeing the amulet immediately stood back and spoke up in docile, "You may get inside"

With it, the leader went inside the luminous treasure room. The treasure room inside the cave was illuminated from all the shiny and precious items that were kept there. It was filled with valuable treasures which worth around thousands of gold taels.

There were the gold necklaces, rare vintage coral hairpin and ornaments worn by the Previous Empress of the Kingdom Yu, finest Jade ornaments and decorative items from the Kingdom of Xue, spiritual herbs, divine swords of the late SwordMaster, the head of the dragon, lightning bolts blade which can kill over thousands of people in just one swoosh, rare medicinal herbs that are used for treating several diseases, the zither made from the finest and rarest wood, deadly poison from across the Kingdom, Finest Silk clothes from the Kingdom Yu. There were also a whole bunch of treasures which were kept in various wooden, silver, gold and bronze boxes.

The leader slightly looked up for a space and kept unconscious Xialin on the corner. He left her there. Poor Xialin laid unconscious and slept soundly on the treasure room. It appeared that it would take a while for her to wake up.

On the other side, the cart reached the Brothel house.

With it, the man immediately stopped the cart, 'Yeeee...!'

He then turn towards the Sly woman and directed, "You may get down Lady"

The Slywoman still acted upon her craftiness and spoke up slyly, "Aishh....! Young man, don't be so quick to leave. Help me to bring those two young ladies inside. I guarantee you'll not be disappointed "

The two men was left helpless with it. Unable to deny her request, they looked at each other eyes and spoke up submissively, "Okay"

With it, they gets off the cart and carry unconscious Bingbing and Lihua on their shoulders. They carried them inside the Brothel House.

As they arrived inside the Brothel house, they witnessed it in a total chaos. The beautiful ladies were wearing an exposing dress and were dancing seductively. The drunkards were drooling over them, watching from the other side. On the other side, was an old drunkard chasing a beautiful lady in green they were running in circles. In another section was a man holding a lady in his arms while he was being fed with grapes.

The big fat head lady of the brothel house wore a beautiful green dress. She hurriedly came to greet the sly woman.

Her looks tell that she is in her 50s, has a big mole on her right cheek. She looked rather gross and old despite her bright red lipstick and makeup.

Upon seeing her, the Sly woman greeted her pleasingly, "Hello Mo Chou, it's been quite a while"

Mo Chou greeted back with an airy tone, "Which young woman are you bringing this time?"

The Sly woman kept her cool and point towards the two unconscious ladies on the man's shoulder. She then spoke artfully, "It's these two young ladies. They are quite beautiful"

Mo Chou glanced at it and instructed sceptically, "Well... let's see bring them inside!"

With it, they all went inside an empty room. The two men quickly laid down unconscious Bingbing and Lihua on the floor. They make their heads to rest on the room wall and soon left the Brothel House.

Bingbing and Lihua laid there with their head resting on the wall. They still remain unconscious. They were busy sleeping and were even drooling in their sleep. Bingbing soon snorts in her sleep. Mo Chou meticulously observed the two ladies. She looked at their face and their conduct and smirked in disbelief.

The Slywoman upon seeing Mochou's act inquired trickily, "So let's get down to business. Say how much are you willing to pay?!"

Mo Chou nodded her head and spoke up in a firm tone, "Two taels of Silver"

The Slywoman argue up in disbelief, "Hey.... two taels of silver for two Young woman?! Aren't you going too far?"

Mo Chou pointed to Bingbing and Lihua and spoke up dryly, "It's far more than enough for the two ladies! Look at the ladies you brought over! One look like a fat pig and the other look like a goat sleeping!"

She then continues sarcastically, "Well... I wonder if they will be of any use?!"

Upon hearing it, the Slywoman was left speechless for a while. She kept her coolness and retorted craftily, "So what? Isn't the Brothel house all for fun and enjoyment? The two ladies are still fresh"

The Slywoman then went nearer to Mo Chou and whisper in the ear, "They are still untouch!"

Mo Chou unable to ignore her words, shooked her head and proclaimed in a firm tone, "Anyway one gold and two silver! Not more than that"

The Slywoman agreed to it hesitatingly, "Okay..okay. My beautiful Mo Chou it's done deal"

Mo Chou feeling spirited at her words, she smiles to herself and responded amusingly, "Ohh dear! I know my beauty is peerless I am glad you know it!"

The Slywoman eye-rolled at her words. She was left speechless for a moment. She soon fakes a smile and added more flattery words, "Ofcourse I know. In fact, everyone in the whole Black market only talks about your beauty!"

Hearing the Sly woman flattery words Mo chou was left brimming with amusement and joy. She happily took out the gold and silver taels from her red pouch and gave it to the Slywoman. She then spoke up in amusement, "I got the charms isn't it?! In fact, I was born with it!"

As she received the money with sparkled eyes, the Sly woman wasn't even attending to Mochou's words. She was lost in her own thoughts, 'Now I made some good fortune!'

Mochou upon seeing her conduct, questioned, "Hey! Are you listening?!"

The Slywoman suddenly came back to her senses and replied amusingly, "Yes. Yes, MoChou You are awesome, beautiful, fantastic a peerless beauty of Black market!"

After saying those flattery words the Sly woman quickened her pace and soon left the Brothel House.

Mochou smiled from ear to ear and went happily inside. Looks like she will keep on smiling the whole day!
