East Meet West

202- Bidding

“Hehe... the fat guy’s background is not simple. It seems that his sister is engaged to the young master of the Chan family.”

“And that young master is the second son of the Chan clan’s patriarch.”

“And this guy has the full support of that young master, so the owner of this inn does not dare to take any action against him. Actually, it is not surprising that this fat guy can remain so unrestrained in this town, as this town is like the backyard of Chan clan.”

Hearing this, Orochi understood the situation.

He then asked,

“Brother, I don’t know how much power the Chan clan holds?”

That guy thought for a moment and replied,

“The Chan clan has a private army of more than 2000 soldiers. And most of them are without any cultivation. But above those 2000 soldiers, there are 20 leaders and 5 Generals, with the cultivation of Beginning stage and Refinement stage respectively.”

“As for the actual power of the Chan clan, I am not aware of that.”

Orochi: “What about the highest cultivation possessed by the experts or members of the Chan clan?”

Guy: “I heard that 10 years ago, the Patriarch of the Chan clan had stepped into the Transformation realm. As for others, 5-6 clan members have also stepped into the Transformation realm. Other than that, I am not aware.”

Hearing this, Orochi stuffed 3 silver coins in that guy’s hand and said,

“Thank you brother for sharing this information with me. As I am new to this city, this information is of great help to me.”

Seeing the silver coins in his hand, that person enthusiastically replied,

“No problem, no problem, if you have anything else to ask then don’t hesitate, I will answer everything with the best of my knowledge.”

While Orochi and the other guy were chatting, the fat guy standing the table shouted,

“Well, I have only 3 room keys left. Whoever wants them should start bidding. Or else you will be sleeping in the open for today.”

“The starting bid for each room is 50 silver coins.”

Hearing this everyone’s attention was focused on the fat guy, including Orochi’s group.

And the next moment everyone started bidding as if these 3 rooms were the only last rooms left in this town.

“I bid 52 silver coins for 1 room.”

“I bid 55 silver coins.”

“60 silver coins.”

.

[Note: 1 gold coin = 100 silver coins = 10,000 Bronze coins]

.

The price soon crossed 100 silver coins and then it slowed down and stopped at 110 silver coins.

Seeing, that the crowd settled down, the fat guy encouraged,

“Everyone, I can say for sure that almost every inn in this town must be full by now and if you don’t grab this opportunity, then you will have to spend your night either on the streets or build a tent outside the town.”

“So, don’t miss this opportunity and quickly get yourself a room.”

Hearing what the fat guy said, some people gritted their teeth and increased the price, and finally, the price settled at 125 silver coins.

Seeing that price was not increasing anymore, Orochi shouted his bid.

“400 silver coins for 2 rooms.”

Orochi’s voice was loud and it attracted everyone’s attention.

Everyone curiously looked at Orochi and seeing that he was such a young and handsome guy, some people were filled with envy, admiration, etc. Because being able to bid such a high amount, clearly means that he is from a powerful place. But there were some who looked at Orochi doubtfully, as he looked so thin as if he has been starving for few days.

[Note: Although in this world, everyone looks like an anime character they are still able to differentiate between themselves based on beauty and other factors, only Orochi has a small problem in this aspect and to him, every woman looks like a stunner beauty in his eyes.]

.

Seeing someone raised the price to 400 silver coins for two rooms, the fat guy was instantly filled with happiness and encouraged others to bid higher but this time his words did not play any effect.

The cost of staying in an inn for a whole is day is only 5 silver coins, and during the special event, the inns have raised the prices to 10 silver coins. And now the price has reached 200 silver coins per room.

And after the price has reached such a level, no one is willing to spend such a huge amount to acquire a room for a single night.

Joke.

With 200 silver coins, at normal times they could get a VIP room in this town for almost 2-3 days. Or they could eat delicious food for a whole week and enjoy a lavish life for a short period.

So, how can they waste their money just to sleep for a single night?

Instead, they would rather spend it eating good food and simply endure one night’s discomfort or erect a tent outside the town.

Seeing that no one was willing to increase the bid, the fat guy felt some depression, but he cannot pause for so long as it will incite the bidder, so he shouted,

“400 silver coins for the first time...”

“400 silver coins for the second time...”

Just as the second warning fell, a loud voice sounded in the hall.

“1000 silver coins for all the three rooms...”

Immediately everyone’s eyes moved in the direction from which the sound came.

A young man entered, followed by two followers.

The young man held his head high and his eyes looked at everyone with disdain. His face showed extreme arrogance.

Although, his contemptuous look gives everyone an urge to punch him in the face, but it seems that nobody dares to offend him.

The person beside Orochi whispered,

“Brother, this guy’s name is Alex Xavier. But he has another name called the Flower Luster.”

“He is infamously for his lust. Every beautiful girl that enters his eyes, he will take her forcefully and spoil her life. Even if it is someone’s wife, daughter, sister, or girlfriend, he doesn’t care. And any girl that has been caught by him has either been killed or gone mentally ill or sold to brothels after he had his fun.”

“So, whenever a girl sees him, they will try to escape from that place as soon as possible and hope that they never encounter him ever again.”

“As for his background? He is the only son of the Willow Sword Sect’s fifth elder.”

Hearing this, Orochi asked

“Willow Sword Sect? What is its background?”

That guy: “Willow Sword sect is one of power that can compare with the Chan clan.”
