The bidding had come to an end, and no one else was bidding anymore.
"Alright! Then this shipment will belong to..."
"200 taels!"
The burly man on the stage was interrupted by a new bid before he could finish speaking.
"Alright! 200 taels! Anyone else bidding higher?"
The audience fell silent.
"Congratulations, madam over there, this shipment is yours!"
The burly man looked at Lin Zao, and with a wave of his hand, someone led the brother and sister towards Lin Zao.
Although Tang Jian did not know why Lin Zao suddenly offered a price to buy the two siblings, he did not object to Lin Zao's decision.
Once the others were brought over, Tian Bu'er was made to pay the money directly.
When the brother and sister saw their new master, they were a little scared, but they didn't dare to run away or resist. They just stood obediently beside Tian Bu'er.
It seems that these people who were sold had undergone a period of "training".
Seeing that he had already received all the money from selling the slaves, the burly man on the platform revealed a smug smile, and then loudly proclaimed:
"Next up is the horse market! Our trading company has just received a new batch of fine horses, so please don't miss out!"
The crowd below the stage stirred again. The horses of this merchant guild were not ordinary horses; they were all top-quality horses, selected from thousands, and sometimes even rare and famous steeds.
The burly man shouted, "Bring him up!"
A golden horse with a white forehead, a shape like a full moon, and a faint white belly was led up. Its coat was as smooth and beautiful as satin, and seemed to reflect light under the sun.
It's obvious at a glance that this is a fine horse.
The audience immediately became restless.
"What a fine horse! It must be a yellow horse!"
"This is definitely a BMW with a distinguished pedigree!"
Before the burly man on stage could even begin to explain, someone had already eagerly started bidding.
"I'll offer 300 taels!"
"You dare to ask for such a low price? I'll offer 600 taels!"
"1000!"
The price skyrocketed, and the people in the audience stared at the horse with shining eyes, wishing they could buy it immediately so they could ride it and show it off.
Lin Zao didn't know much about horses, but he could tell that this horse was extraordinary. Its coat was shiny and glossy, its eyes were bright and alert, and its head was held high, giving it an unruly appearance.
Looking at the people below the stage, all of them were as excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood, you could tell that people at that time loved horses just like modern people love cars.
She turned to look at Tang Jian and saw that his eyes were shining as he looked at the horse; he was clearly also somewhat interested.
"General, let's buy it! This horse is absolutely magnificent! It's so handsome, I'm so tempted!"
Tian Bu'er, standing next to him, kept shouting that he wanted to buy it, his eyes fixed on the horse, looking as if he wanted to snatch it away. Lin Zao couldn't help but laugh.
As the number of bidders gradually decreased, the price was raised to 2100 taels.
Tang Jian casually placed a direct bid: "3,000 taels."
The audience fell silent. The price was far beyond what they could accept, and for a moment no one dared to bid against Tang Jian.
"Congratulations to that young master over there, this yellow horse is now yours!"
Tang Jian's lips curled into a satisfied smile, while Tian Bu'er beside him was overjoyed, wishing he could go and lead the horse over himself.
Fortunately, the merchants were quick and sent the horse over immediately. Tian Bu'er tossed over the prepared silver notes and led the carriage over as if it were a precious treasure.
Tang Jian's sharp gaze went straight into the horse's eyes, and the horse instantly became agitated, kicking its hooves.
The man and his horse clashed instantly!
