Zhan Wushuang is still in the Wuya Dynasty, and he hasn't properly said goodbye to the Ji family yet. He will definitely go and reunite with her after he finishes dealing with things here.
Regardless of the attitude of the Western Zhou Dynasty, the final decision rests with the women of the Ji family, since the Western Zhou Dynasty, though their homeland, is also a place of sorrow.
Having suffered so much harm there, it's inevitable that returning home will trigger painful memories. Generally, people who have experienced great hardship prefer to start over in a place where no one knows them.
"Oh, right, Master, these are the names of the participants in the recent auctions."
Ji Fanya put away the letter and then took out a list. "There aren't many participants. Most of the smaller families are aware of their limitations and didn't participate."
"Yes, is that so?"
Jun Feijue frowned slightly and asked, "How many forces have participated so far?"
"The eight major families and four aristocratic families of the Eastern Yan Dynasty, the three major sects of the Dynasty Continent, and the royal families of five neighboring countries."
Fan Qiyue did some calculations and said, "If the quantity is so small, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get a good price at the auction."
"But haven't a lot of people come to the capital recently?"
Ji Fanya asked in confusion, "I overheard the palace maids chatting and they said the inns are all fully booked. How come there are so few participants?"
"These people are just here to watch the show, not to participate."
Fan Qiyue smiled and said, "After all, this is the largest auction in history, auctioning off an entire country. Everyone would want to come and see it."
"Hmm, if that's the case, then this is interesting."
Upon hearing this, Chunhu Siqiong, standing to the side, narrowed her eyes with a cunning smile and stroked her chin, saying, "Why didn't I think of that before? Things are valued for their rarity. Since this auction is a unique event in the world, it should charge an entry fee."
"Admission fee?" Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback.
"That's right. Want to come and watch for free? Where in the world is there such a good deal? This auction venue is the imperial palace. You can't just walk in like that."
Chunhu Siqiong licked her fluffy white paws and said lazily, "Just consider it a fee for them to watch the palace."
"Sure, sure!"
Ji Fanya was the first to react, his small eyes shining brightly as he said, "I agree with Sister Qiong's idea, it's brilliant!"
"Isn't that amazing? I have something even more amazing to share!"
Flattered by such praise, Chunhu Siqiong felt quite pleased and continued smugly, "Apart from the entrance fee, the tea and snacks are all imperial cuisine. Shouldn't they be charged for?"
"Yes, yes, how come I didn't think of that? Sister Qiong, you are so wise!"
Chunhu Siqiong came up with ideas, while Ji Fanya, the little money-grubber, was responsible for cheering and shouting "666" enthusiastically from the sidelines.
"But what if they don't go in after they know there's a charge? And what if they don't want the tea and snacks?"
Seeing Ji Fanya's excited expression, Fan Qiyue couldn't help but say, "And some of the smaller families of the Eastern Yan Dynasty, they've probably seen the imperial palace before, so perhaps they're not curious?"
"What's so difficult about this?"
Upon hearing this, Chunhu Siqiong said dismissively, "Do you think those families who have come from afar are willing to go back so easily? As for tea and snacks, we will naturally collect payment after they have eaten them. In our territory, I don't think anyone would dare to dine and dash."
Everyone: "..."
