Agent Time Travel: Apocalypse in the Magical World

Chapter 264 Selection of dowry girls (Part )

At noon the next day, at the Gong family school grounds.

Dozens of families came with carriages.

Dozens of women, dressed in beautiful origami, wearing jingle rings and jingle bells.

"The selection of maids for dowry begins."

There were no polite words or opening remarks, because everyone knew the details, pros and cons of the matter before coming.

Therefore, adhering to the Gong family's tradition of being vigorous and resolute, the selection began directly with the order of the Gong family's housekeeper.

Dozens of women selected from various families were all looking forward to it.

Just in case the emperor likes it...

Just in case any prince can take a fancy to him...

Just in case the Great Magister takes a fancy to...

It’s just that no one thought about what might happen if they offended the emperor or committed some taboo...

Hey, this is human nature! Qin Xiaoxian thought secretly.

The first test began: each person was given ten copper coins to buy random items.

The list of items to be purchased is drawn randomly.

"Ten copper coins? What can I buy?"

"It won't be a test of which of our families is rich, right? Let us make up for it ourselves?"

"Shh, this is a test of whether we can adapt to changes."

The girls already knew what these three test questions were, but in the end they couldn't guess the true thoughts of the questioners.

"Start extracting the names of purchased items." The manager gave another order.

The girls were drawn according to the official positions of the heads of each family.

Qin Xiaoxian was the first one to draw.

He took one of the magic jade stones on the table and injected it with spiritual power. Several words appeared on it: "Low-level magic ring."

Qin Xiaoxian was stunned: No matter how low-level this thing is, it has to be based on gold coins, right?

Others also came forward one after another in order, took out jade stones, and then whispered.

"I'm buying a Yuanyang handkerchief! What about you?"

"...Liu Ji Bacon."

"Mine are the calligraphy and paintings of owner Fang Cun Zhai."

"I want to buy a hoe. What is a hoe?"

"What the hell? A magic wand? Ten copper coins to buy a magic wand?" A woman shouted directly.

"You are in a state of panic when things go wrong. You are disqualified." The housekeeper looked at the woman who screamed.

"Why? There's something wrong with your test itself, it's unfair!" the woman yelled.

"This is the Gong family, and you don't understand the rules at all. Come here, get rid of the maids chosen by General Zhao's family in Burning Ember City!"

The housekeeper spoke slowly, and then a servant came over, punched the woman who was still trying to stimulate her spiritual power, and threw her out.

"Inform the Burning Ember City Military Department that General Zhao will temporarily step down from his position as commander and return to the family to straighten out the household affairs."

A voice came from the big room behind the butler.

You can tell by the voice that it must be Gong Wei and Gong Lanxin's grandfather, General Gong.

At this moment, no one dared to speak anymore. After all, most of the people who came here were not fools. Wouldn't someone like the mentally retarded woman just now harm the family?

"As a maid, it is a normal thing to buy something for a lady. Go ahead and come back in an hour."

After the butler finished speaking, he raised his hand, the door opened again, and dozens of people rushed out.

At the same time, every woman who goes out will be followed by a Gong family guard to avoid cheating.

Quite different from others running fast, Qin Xiaoxian walked calmly and slowly.

There was also a guard behind him.

Although the guard also had a serious face, he was quite curious about Qin Xiaoxian's unhurried look. Could it be that this person didn't intend to complete the mission?

Qin Xiaoxian walked slowly as if going shopping.

Passing by a silk and satin shop, I saw a woman happily walking out holding a handkerchief, followed by a guard.

This man was lucky, and the task he got was a handkerchief.

Continuing forward, I passed by a high-end store, but I heard the sound of quarrels coming from inside.

Qin Xiaoxian glanced slightly and saw a woman inside who was bargaining hard with a young magician.

Qin Xiaoxian had just walked through the door when he heard a bang and the door was kicked open.

The woman grabbed a magician's robe and ran away, and then a young magician with a bruised nose and face crawled out and shouted:

"Hitting someone! Robbery!"

Immediately afterwards, a Gong family guard rushed out with a livid face, and then three legal guards and two magicians also rushed out of the store, staring at the guard with unkind eyes.

The guard had no choice but to take out the Gong family's waist badge and motion for them to record it in the Gong family's account.

The young magician stood up with a roar, smiled and said he didn't want any money...

Qin Xiaoxian continued to walk forward and saw a woman packing her clothes and walking out of Fangcunzhai with a flushed face and a scroll of calligraphy and painting in her hand.

The guard followed without changing his expression, but the blush on his face indicated that he must have seen something just now.

Qin Xiaoxian couldn't help but look at the woman's back.

Tsk tsk, there is indeed something.

Qin Xiaoxian walked towards the magic ring shop calmly.

He suddenly felt nostalgic for the first time he walked into the ring shop in Tuoluo City many years ago to scan the goods.

...well, probably years later, haha.

But now, he is wearing women's clothes to run for a maid, how interesting it is.

Just when the guard behind him felt that Qin Xiaoxian should enter the ring shop to grind his teeth with the boss, he found that Qin Xiaoxian turned around and turned a corner.

Yehuo Gambling House.

The guard did not expect that a maid, and a maid who was participating in the selection process, would become addicted to gambling and go to the gambling house to gamble.

But then I thought about it, maybe he just wanted to take a chance. After all, the rules only stipulated that these ten copper coins must be used, but there was no rule that these ten copper coins could not be used to make money.

This guard also likes gambling, so he is willing to follow Qin Xiaoxian into the gambling house. Although he cannot participate in gambling while working, it is still good to see.

So he walked in with this emotion. Within half an hour, in shock, Qin Xiaoxian was respectfully invited out by the gambling shop owner.

And he had no doubt that if it weren't for the fact that he was the bodyguard of the Gong family, the gambling shop owner would definitely take action.

This maid named Qin Xiaoxian went in and killed everyone, and she did it based on her true skills, not a trick.

Watching the maid put bags of gold coins into her storage ring, the guard realized that this person turned out to be a magician.

The magician's maid is indeed from the Gong family where she belongs, and Beier has face.

I thought Qin Xiaoxian could buy a ring with the thousands of gold coins she earned. However, the first thing Qin Xiaoxian said when entering the ring store was: "Boss, I am the maid from Gong's hometown. Our lady wants to buy a ring in good condition." , you pick a few, these ten copper coins will be used as a deposit, and we will get them back to you after our lady chooses them."

The boss was an old magician. After hearing this, he looked at Qin Xiaoxian's clothes and the guards with the Gong family badge behind them, and he could only squeeze out a smile and agreed.

The guard looked at Qin Xiaoxian in bewilderment as he dropped ten copper coins, picked up seven or eight magic rings, turned around and left, and thought to himself: After all, she did not make money by gambling just to collect money to buy rings, but she went to gamble purely because of her skills. .

After leaving the ring shop, a dark shadow flashed in front of the guard's eyes. He subconsciously reached out to catch it, and it turned out to be a bag of gold coins.

Qin Xiaoxian turned around in front and smiled: "Take it, it's hard work. If I didn't complete the task, it's called bribery. Now that I've completed it, it's the reward for you. Take it, and you can get it when you go back to the gambling house." Be generous.”

When the guard heard this, he finally smiled, and since Qin Xiaoxian was one of his own, he accepted it.
