Chapter 39 - The Trade Fair Begins

The door of the Dead Dog Tavern closed with a bang.

All the irrelevant people were cleared out. Only the people who came to the trade fair tonight were left in the pub.

"Gentlemen.

"The trade fair will be held as scheduled tonight.

"Thank you for coming.

"As for the goods this time, it definitely won't let you down."

In an empty space on the second floor of the tavern, the owner with a big belly said some boring opening remarks.

A few minutes later, the entire trade fair finally officially began.

The items were taken out by the owner of the tavern one by one and arranged in order on the second floor. Among them was the elven banshee that Bai Yu wanted to buy.

It was a young girl with nearly 100% transparent wings on her back.

She had a delicate face, a fair jaw, and skin that could be broken with a blow. She was dressed in sackcloth.

Her hands, feet, and neck were all shackled, and her pale green eyes were filled with fear and uneasiness.

There was a person in charge of every item.

This was not the model of an auction.

All participants who came to the Dead Dog Tavern could browse, choose, and leave their price in the hands of the person in charge of the item.

After the fair is over, everyone would bid the highest for the item. Whoever bids the highest can receive their item in secret.

This not only greatly ensures the level of security, but also sells the item more efficiently and reasonably. After all, their purpose is to do business.

Selling each item one by one would be too inefficient and prone to conflict. This would not be good for the owner's reputation.

After browsing through each item, the staff in charge brought them into the corresponding room and closed the door.

"Dear customers, you may browse around freely.

"This time, there are not only newly developed weapons and potions, but also some items that can not be bought even if you have money on the market.

"Don't worry as we have special security measures. All customer safety issues are under our consideration. You can be at ease and spend as much as you want here."

The tavern owner clapped his hands.

The lights in the entire tavern suddenly changed, and melodious background music was played. Under the dark neon lights, the faces of the people nearby could not be seen clearly.

It was like dancing in a disco.

"Gentlemen, please choose a mask."

The real bunny girl wore a maid uniform as she walked over. The tray in her hands was filled with all kinds of masks.

There were dozens of people in the entire tavern.

In addition, most of them had put on simple disguises to disguise their appearances. Even if they were familiar with each other, it would be difficult for them to recognize each other at first glance.

Now that they were wearing masks, it would be hard for even their biological families to recognize them.

After Bai Yu and Shou Qin chose their masks, they did not stop on the first floor and went straight up to the second floor. The rooms here were all tightly shut. However, Bai Yu had memorized where the elven banshee's room was at.

"Let's go through a few other rooms first. There are a lot of warriors coming this time, but they shouldn't be interested in the elven banshee."

Bai Yu said in a low voice.

Warriors had a high status in society and enjoyed certain privileges. It was not very difficult for them to get some ordinary beautiful women.

They spent a lot on beautiful trophies like the elven banshees. They were useless except for satisfying their own desires.

"Bai Yu, just do as you see fit. I'm here to join in on the fun." Qin Shou looked around, lingering on the bunny girl in the tavern.

The two of them opened a few doors in succession.

One sold weapons, one sold materials, and one sold spirit techniques.

None of them attracted Bai Yu and Qin Shou's interest.

However, each room was equipped with two sequences nine warriors. It was enough to show that the person behind this tavern was powerful.

"How often does this kind of trade happen?"

Bai Yu was curious.

To be able to hire so many warriors as security guards meant that this was not a small expenditure.

Qin Shou explained, "Every week, the time is uncertain, and the scale is quite large. For this kind of trade fair with dozens of people, the boss must earn at least tens of millions."

Bai Yu nodded.

To be able to get the elven banshee and open such a large-scale trade fair, it proved that the other party must have the support of powerful people.

The two strolled around. When the traffic on the second floor was at its peak, they walked into the room with an elven banshee.

There were no other guests in the room.

Two warriors stood guard in front of the door, one on the left and one on the right.

The elven banshee sat on a stool, her eyes still filled with fear and helplessness.

"Please come in. Do you need me to introduce the goods?" The middle-aged man in charge of the goods welcomed them warmly.

Bai Yu nodded slightly.

"I believe you know about the elven banshee, so I don't need to say more. This is an elven banshee who is going through puberty. We spent a lot of manpower and material resources to find her alone in the wild. Now that the number of banshees is decreasing, the price... naturally has to go up a little, so the lowest bid is one million.

"You can rest assured about the quality of the goods.

"There are no diseases or genetic diseases.

"We did not use violence when we captured her.

"She was not touched by other men.

"If this kind of high-end goods is ruined by others, it will not be worth much.

"So whether it is physically or mentally, she is in the perfect state."

The man said proudly.

Bai Yu looked at the elven banshee on the stool.

It was exactly as the person in charge had said.

Apart from the fear and helplessness in his eyes, his spirit, energy, and spirit were all normal.

However...

How could this banshee have short hair, b*stard!

Could short hair succeed?

On the potion formula was a tuft of elven banshee's fragrant hair. Bai Yu did not know how long this tuft was exactly.

In addition, hair was not a common potion ingredient, so Bai Yu could only buy an elven banshee to find out.

Even if the potion formula failed, he could get a new measurement for a tuft of hair.

After listening to the man's introduction for a while, Bai Yu walked to the side of the quote board and wrote down the figure of 1.5 million.

1.5 million dollars.

That was enough to buy a house in the Eastern District.

Of course, for Bai Yu, who owned an entire apartment complex, this was not a lot.

"Please leave a message or other contact information. Once the price exceeds your offer, we will inform you effective immediately," the person in charge said with a smile.

Bai Yu nodded.

The two of them turned around and went to the first floor of the tavern, quietly waiting for the trade fair to end.

The second floor was a trading venue, while the first floor was a place for entertainment.

The customers who had completed the trade or were waiting for them were all on the first floor. The music gradually became more and more explosive, and the smell of alcohol filled the air.

Many people brought their handmaidens along as they danced on the dance floor. As long as they were willing to pay, they could bring these handmaidens home. They were carefully selected and specially provided entertainment for these people.

"Sir, would you like to have a drink?"

At this moment, a soft voice sounded from behind them.

A woman with a ruddy face, revealing clothes, and an intoxicating scent walked up to Bai Yu and Qin Shou with a glass of red wine in her hand.

She was very beautiful. Moreover, her every movement seemed natural and full of fatal temptation to men.

The most important point was that she was a human.

Bai Yu stared at her and said subconsciously, "No, I hate drinking."
