Volume 2: Jade Promise Chapter 61 I'll go get some change
"Hello, I'm the auctioneer's assistant at the Feishi City Auction House. My name is Qianxue."
As soon as the beauty came in, she tried her best to show off her cleavage.
She exuded an alluring aura and kept flirting with Tang Zheng.
"Well, hello, Miss Qianxue." Tang Zheng did not react as much as she expected, but just smiled and nodded.
Qianxue was a little disappointed.
However, as a professional auction assistant, she still did not forget the purpose of her visit: "I am here to confirm with you all the items you have bid on and check the amount of purple gold Tongbao you need to pay..."
After the auction, there will be a dedicated person to confirm the situation. This was mentioned before we entered the private room.
Tang Zheng nodded when he heard this: "Well, let's get started."
So Qianxue stood beside Tang Zheng, bent down and handed Tang Zheng a booklet , and opened it to the first page.
The first page was filled with the mixed-blood fox girl, who had a human shape, pointed ears, and a big tail. The final price filled in below was three hundred taels of purple gold.
"No problem." Tang Zheng confirmed again.
"Okay... then please sign." After confirming that there was no problem with the first item, Qianxue continued to flip through the items and when she came to the item that Tang Zheng had bid for, she asked Tang Zheng to sign, all the way to the last piece of deerskin.
After all the goods were confirmed, Qianxue straightened up and said politely to Tang Zhengdao: "Then, please provide an address. We will deliver the goods to your home at the time you need and collect the full payment..."
Tang Zheng directly handed the nameplate of Tianxia Minglu to Qianxue.
When Qianxue saw the nameplate of Tianxia Minglu, her eyes became hot again, but she immediately used her star power to record the address on the nameplate.
"Okay, we'll see each other in three days." Qianxue reluctantly put away the album and said, "Please prepare the full amount of purple gold by then, a total of 1,145 taels."
"Yeah." Tang Zheng nodded again.
"If you need it, we can also provide some other services..." Qianxue finally threw a coquettish glance at Tang Zheng.
"Thank you, but no thanks." Tang Zheng narrowed his eyes and replied.
Qianxue's figure then disappeared at the door.
Tang Zheng and Xu Qingyan were the only ones left in the room. Tang Zheng looked at the empty auction house below and asked, "Does this auction house belong to Purple Gold City ?"
"It shouldn't belong." Xu Qingyan shook his head, "I didn't see any relevant signs."
"Yeah." Tang Zheng turned and left the private room.
If this auction house did not belong to the Purple Gold City, he would have to find a place to exchange the pure gold for normal Purple Gold Tongbao.
Although Feishi City is relatively safe and not as chaotic as Wulong Town, the Feishi City Auction House is different from places like Bailianfang, Jubao Pavilion, and Tianxia Minglu. Without the credibility guarantee of the Purple Gold City, Tang Zheng is still unwilling to directly sell pure gold.
"Who should I ask for the exchange? I don't have to consider the Treasure Pavilion in Feishi City. It's better not to show up in front of the shopkeeper's son." Tang Zheng thought all the way back, "There shouldn't be many places that can take out more than a thousand taels of purple gold within three days. Tang Ququan can only take out more than a hundred taels at most... For the remaining thousand taels, there are only two options - either the military camp or the academy."
…
Tang Zheng handed the nameplate of Tianxia Minglu to Xu Qingyan first, and asked Xu Qingyan to clear out all the things in the house and then buy new things according to his requirements.
The total change for rearranging the furniture would not exceed one hundred taels of purple gold, so it was naturally paid directly by Tang Ququan.
Tang Zheng himself went to Yisu Academy to change coins, and more and more coins.
Although the military camp is also an option, the largest cash flow in the military camp is military pay. For Tang Zheng, this change is a bit too "zero".
Besides, Wang Danyang is not in Feishi City now, and he is not very familiar with the other two generals. Tang Zheng is not sure how they will deal with the matter of pure gold.
But Yisu Academy is different.
Their capital flows are more diversified, and they may be more receptive to pure gold, not to mention their credibility.
When Tang Zheng went there, he saw that the Yisu Academy had been newly decorated in preparation for the inscription ceremony that would take place a few days later. In the instructors' dormitory not far away, Leng Buchen was personally cleaning the Yisu Academy's principal's office.
"The inscription ceremony hasn't started yet. What's the matter with you coming here now?" Leng Buchen was a little surprised to see Tang Zheng.
"Oh... well, there's something I need your help with." Tang Zheng was standing at the door, scratching his head, and said, "I need to ask you for some change."
"Change the money?" Leng Buchen stopped what he was doing. "Do you need to find me to change the money?"
"Well, probably only you can change this change..." Tang Zheng spread his hands helplessly.
If it wasn't Tang Zheng who came, Leng Buchen would have probably been kicked out by him by now. Why would he have to come all the way to Yisu Academy to find him for such a small matter as changing coins?
However, Tang Zheng insisted on asking him to change the coins, which definitely did not mean it literally.
Leng Buchen thought about many possibilities, so he simply washed his hands, sat down and asked, "Tell me, what do you need me to do?"
"Alas." Tang Zheng sighed, and without saying much, he took out two gold bricks weighing five hundred taels each from his purple gold belt.
Five hundred taels is not a light weight. If Tang Zheng was still the gold-forging assassin in his previous life, it would be impossible for him to move two pieces in a row.
However, after more than half a year of training, his physical fitness has improved greatly.
He held two gold bricks weighing five hundred taels each in his hands as if they were playing with them.
However, Leng Buchen had no intention of playing around at all, as soon as he saw the two gold bricks and felt their strong resonance with the star power, he quickly waved his hand and the whole room was shrouded in a light blue mist.
"Tang Zheng... Is this, pure gold?" Although Leng Buchen expected that Tang Zheng would come to him not just to exchange ordinary coins, he did not expect that Tang Zheng would need to exchange such a large amount!
"One thousand taels of pure gold, I'll exchange it for one thousand two hundred taels of purple gold Tongbao." Tang Zheng sighed, "Anyway, I don't have anywhere to exchange it for the time being."
"What do you want so many purple gold coins for?" Leng Buchen didn't ask him where he got so much pure gold.
"Well...it's a long story." Tang Zheng told him everything about the auction.
Leng Buchen was speechless when he heard that he originally wanted to buy deerskin, but ended up buying so many things. However, in the spirit of being responsible for his students, he still reminded him: "Pure purple gold is a very rare thing. Are you sure you want to exchange it for the academy?"
Tang Zheng had no idea how many people had heard this sentence from.
Pure gold is not used for trading at all. It is essential for casting, for making and guiding martial arts, and for many, many other things...
However, for Tang Zheng, the amount of pure gold piled in his belt was enough to trigger an economic crisis in the Xingyao Continent, so it was not a rare item at all.
"I'm sure." Tang Zheng answered very affirmatively.
"Come with me." Leng Buchen didn't ask a second time and directly took Tang Zheng to his office.
After all, it is a noble family academy, and its foundation is indeed not comparable to that of ordinary academies. The twelve hundred taels of purple gold were directly given by Leng Buchen to Tang Zheng.
One thousand two hundred taels, filled twelve boxes!
Tang Zheng has experienced this with countless storage bags. Stuff like purple gold is not something that ordinary space props can withstand.
However, those space props that can withstand the power of purple gold have certain requirements on the star level of the user, and they must all be tailor-made.
Therefore, the most primitive yet common approach is to pack the items directly in boxes without considering the folding space.
Tang Zheng could only ask Tang Xiaotang and the others to help him run a few more trips to deliver all the 1,200 taels of purple gold Tongbao back to his residence by the Emerald Lake.
After the inscription ceremony, Tang Zixie and Tang Xuan will leave Feishi City and return to Tangjiabao, while Meng Fenghua and the others are packing their luggage and preparing to move into the dormitory of Yisu Academy.
Three days passed quickly.
Although the auction house in Feishi City is not a large merchant like Jubao Pavilion with a continent-wide chain, its efficiency is quite good.
The goods arrived at the specified time, and the reason why they did not deliver the goods to your door was because Tianxia Minglu had strict entry and exit management.
"Mr. Tang, please take inventory. All the goods are here. This cage contains the fox girl you bid for. The cage is a gift. Do you want us to help you transport it in?" The auction house's transport manager asked Tang Zheng with a flattering smile.
"No, no, the people... uh, the fox girl stays and the cage is taken away." Tang Zheng waved his hand.
"Okay, then let's do as you wish." The manager didn't say much. He directly ordered his men to pull down the red silk covering the cage, released the shackled fox girl from the cage, and handed the chains and keys, as well as the fox girl's slave tag to Tang Zheng.
From now on, this little fox girl will be the private property recognized by all the major families within the sphere of influence of the eighty-one families in the territory.
The little fox girl was still wearing the same extremely seductive translucent white gauze dress that she had worn that day. Her dreamy purity revealed an endless temptation that made Tang Zheng's nose itch.
Tang Zheng led the little fox girl, who was blindfolded with white silk, to his side. Looking at Xu Qingyan who had come out with him to collect the goods, he scratched and asked, "I want to take off her shackles and blindfold... Will she bite me?"
