Chapter 470 - 131: Success or Sacrifice! Honored Guest Selection (Part 4)

"A hundred thousand taels! I’ll bid a hundred thousand taels!"

"A hundred fifty thousand!"

"I’ll bid two hundred thousand!"

",,,"

At this moment, numerous voices calling bids were heard around.

It seems they’re planning to spend money to buy a chance to become a close guest.

"Tut!"

Listening to these bids, Shi Sheng couldn’t help but tut.

"These guys really are rich!"

"What do you expect? They’re all young masters from the Ministry of Revenue’s household. How could they not have money?"

Si Nan seemed indifferent, having long expected these people to be wealthy, wasn’t surprised at all.

"Weren’t you supposed to have raided the homes of several Ministry of Revenue officials earlier? How can they still have so much money?"

Shi Sheng was a bit confused.

"Their money, ah, is like chives, cut one crop and another comes up. You think it’s all confiscated, but actually, as long as these people are alive, wanting money is still a simple matter, isn’t it?"

For these people.

Money is actually the least important thing.

As long as they’re alive, as long as their official hats are still on their heads, there’s still a big chance to make money.

",,,"

Si Nan’s words made Shi Sheng fall silent for a moment.

His gaze began to become dangerous.

"We should have just killed these guys back then!"

Truly a brute.

Giving Shi Sheng such a sideways glance, Si Nan expressed a face of not bothered to deal with him.

He turned to Ye Liuyun.

"Sir?"

At this moment, Ye Liuyun also had a thoughtful expression, leaving Si Nan somewhat puzzled.

"Need to think of a reason to visit these officials’ homes again!"

Rich, are they!

Perfect, I’m running out of money here, replenishing now is just right.

"Sir, make sure to bring me along at that time!"

Upon hearing Ye Liuyun’s words, Shi Sheng immediately responded.

He interrupted Si Nan’s intended comments.

"You’re quick to react at this moment!"

After glancing at Shi Sheng, Si Nan also looked at Ye Liuyun.

"Sir, you understand me. I’m best at handling such matters!"

For matters like raiding, not being proactive is not viable.

Jiang Jing and Feng Feiyi, standing by, couldn’t help but chuckle, but also expressed their interest in going.

Ye Liuyun naturally wouldn’t refuse anything.

He eats the meat, but of course, he’d let his subordinates sip some soup.

Still, the same phrase.

If unwilling to give anything, why think these brothers would risk their lives for you?

,,,

During this conversation.

Standing on the stage, Mei Ji stated the rules for selecting a close guest.

It’s simple, just draw lots.

Originally, some young masters who planned to spend money were taken aback upon hearing this rule.

They originally thought Mei Ji intended to use this opportunity to make money.

Unexpectedly, it’s purely drawing lots, without collecting any money?

After a moment of shock, many looked at Mei Ji with more excitement.

"He truly has character, I like it!"

"I’ll go! I’ll go!"

"I’ll draw first!"

"Don’t push, my dad’s from Ministry of Justice, I’ll go first!"

"My dad’s from Ministry of Revenue, so I’m not afraid of you!"

Seeing the drawing box taken out.

Immediately, people rushed forward, as if being first to draw would greatly increase the chance of becoming a close guest!

Already, many were announcing their backgrounds.

But it’s meaningless.

Those able to spend at the Imperial Music Bureau aren’t few poor people; everyone has some background, and no one submits to others!

Soon, after a batch finished drawing.

All had a look of beating their chests and stomping their feet, evidently, they hadn’t drawn anything!

Then began looking around.

Wanting to see just who had such luck to draw the guest spot.
