Royal Gold Medal County Magistrate

Zhou Tie was still rambling on stage, while a petite figure stood in the crowd below, her features contorted in a grimace, looking like she was about to gag.

What the hell is this? Is this a brothel? Why are there only men? It's not quite what I imagined!

And that weirdo on stage, shirtless and covered in oil, looks utterly disgusting.

And he keeps talking about peeing or not peeing! It's simply shameless and vulgar!

Chu Youyi revealed a look of disdain.

Today at the academy, she spent the whole afternoon listening about some 'Great God' and 'Wine Demon,' and many people were making plans to go to the Qunyu Brothel, but no one invited her.

She couldn't stand it, and her curiosity got the better of her, so she made a special trip here, never expecting to find such a scene!

What a waste of effort putting on this fake beard!

Chu Youyi stood expressionlessly in the crowd, wearing a long beard, feeling increasingly regretful.

Should she leave or stay? This is quite boring, and it seems unlikely that anything interesting will happen later. But it's rare to come here, so leaving seems a bit of a waste, especially since she hasn't seen what kind of legendary figure this Wine Demon actually is.

After much deliberation, she decided to stay!

Chu Youyi forced herself to look at the stage again, suppressing her disgust....

"Wine Demon Great God's ancestral secret recipe, guaranteed to work! Qitian Dasheng solemnly promises that it will take effect within half an hour of consumption, and improve your constitution after seven days! Men who drink it will strengthen their yang and nourish their kidneys, and women who drink it will nourish their yin and beautify their complexion!" Zhou Tie's alcohol was kicking in, and the continuous shouts from the crowd were helping him get into the groove.

Chu Youyi's expression changed. This magical medicine could beautify the complexion? Getting a jar to try wasn't out of the question, but she seemed to be out of money. Even the beard was on credit...

Fang Zheng was stunned.

Women who drink it will nourish their yin and beautify their complexion? This dog, he's even improvising!

He turned to Xie Xian and asked, "The money I gave you wasn't much. Can you guarantee the effectiveness of the medicinal wine?"

"Yes! I bought too many herbs, and not enough wine, so it's probably even stronger than usual! Besides, that wine isn't anything special, so it's easy to get drunk," Xie Xian replied.

"Damn it! Don't let anyone get sick! We have to be ethical in business!"

"No way, sir, rest assured, it's absolutely safe. I always mix this medicine, no mista..." Xie Xian suddenly realized he had misspoke and quickly shut his mouth, sitting up straight.

Fang Zheng looked at him with a half-smile: "Tsk tsk, didn't realize, Lao Xie! Is this stuff safe for women to drink? I'm afraid those idiots will buy it and give it to their women."

Xie Xian stared straight ahead, his face flushed, and said nothing.

"It's fine! Even female donkeys can use it, and it works well! No problem turning over a few male donkeys!" Zhao Lie interjected: "The county uses this medicine to breed sows."

"That's good, that's good..." Fang Zheng was relieved and looked back at the stage.

"The Great God's exclusive treasure, aged for ten years! Only twenty jars exist in the world today!"

Seeing that the time was right, Fang Zheng quickly cupped his hands into a megaphone and shouted, "Then... where can we buy it? And how much does it cost?"

Zhou Tie pointed to the crowd, excitedly saying: "Good question! It's a rare opportunity, only available at the Qunyu Brothel today! Only twenty jars are for sale, and this magical medicine will be gone forever!"

"How much does such an amazing magical medicine cost? Not one thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine taels!" The crowd felt a pang of anxiety. Could it be nine hundred and ninety-nine?

"Nor do you need nine hundred and ninety-nine taels!" The crowd breathed a sigh of relief.

"Even less than ninety-nine taels!" The crowd gradually became excited, and everyone looked at Zhou Tie with eager eyes. Nine taels? I can afford that!

Zhou Tie was still playing coy: "So, how much does it cost to buy? Everyone can guess. I can reveal some news in advance. Our price this time... is awesome!"

The people below were so anxious that they cursed in their hearts. Everyone was waiting to drink the magical medicine and become a stud, and he was still stalling!

"Hurry up! Can you stop dawdling?!"

"Yeah! Is your mouth rented? So much nonsense!"

Zhou Tie looked embarrassed and looked at Fang Zheng.

Fang Zheng nodded slightly.

Zhou Tie immediately roared at the top of his lungs: "No more stalling! Revealing the answer, the starting price! Nine taels and nine qian!!!"

???

The crowd was silent for a moment, and the air gradually filled with murderous intent. Everyone glared at Zhou Tie.

Starting price? Are you kidding me!

Damn you!

After all that stalling, it's an auction! !

"I think you're a fake medicine seller, you're treating us like monkeys! Beat him up!!" Someone shouted from the crowd.

Instantly, countless melon seeds and walnuts, mixed with familial greetings, flew towards Zhou Tie. Even though he had been on the battlefield, he couldn't help but panic.

He cried out in his heart, "Damn it! I'm going to be killed by the master this time!"

"Quick!! Quick, bring up the Qitian Dasheng! !" Zhou Tie hurriedly shouted, and the waiters who had been prepared brought twenty jars of inferior wine mixed with donkey medicine onto the stage.

The frenzied attacking crowd immediately stopped.

After all, no one wanted to break such a precious thing. What if they couldn't afford to pay for it?

Moreover, there were really rich people in the crowd who were eager to try, and even an auction was acceptable.

Yu Niang was already dumbfounded. She had never seen such a chaotic scene since she started her career.

The culprit was still gulping down the wine jar by jar, as if nothing had happened.

Extraordinary! Too extraordinary! The more she looked at Young Master Fang, the more reliable he seemed!

Zhou Tie took a deep breath and ignored the scattered curses, readjusted his mood, and shouted: "The auction starts now, the minimum bid increment is ten taels each time!"

"Twenty taels!" Xie Xian shouted immediately after receiving Fang Zheng's signal.

The crowd was silent for a moment, and soon someone started to bid up the price.....

Due to the machinations of the shills, the scene quickly became lively.

After all, there were only twenty jars, and one less jar was one less. This jar was quite large. Selling it on might bring a profit, and even if it didn't have any effect, it wouldn't matter. Few people would have bought it, so they wouldn't go out and talk nonsense, and there were always slow-witted fools outside to take over.

In short, you can't lose out, you can't be fooled!

Seeing one jar after another being auctioned off, Chu Youyi became a little anxious.

She really wanted to get a jar! Even just trying a bowl would be good, in case it really could nourish the complexion.

If only she had spent less money on weekdays and saved more monthly allowance!

"Fifty-nine taels and nine qian, the fourteenth jar of Qitian Dasheng belongs to that young master. May I ask your surname, young master!"

Lu Xiuwen stood up proudly and said: "My surname is Lu."

Zhou Tie clapped his hands and said loudly: "Congratulations, Young Master Lu! We'll send someone to deliver it to you right away!"

A waiter stepped forward, delivered the jar of wine to Lu Xiuwen, and collected the silver.

The surrounding people looked enviously at the jar of wine on Lu Xiuwen's table. Lu Xiuwen also unreservedly welcomed the envious gazes of the crowd, and cupped his hands in thanks for the congratulations.

His proud gaze was wandering around when he suddenly caught sight of a familiar figure.

The owner of the figure was also looking at him with an extremely complicated gaze.

You... Youyi?

Although that person had a wisp of beautiful beard, the disguise was clumsy. Judging from those eyebrows, wasn't it Chu Youyi?

Lu Xiuwen was dumbfounded, and then he unconsciously waved to Chu Youyi....
