The door of the Dead Dog Tavern closed with a bang.
All the irrelevant people were cleared out. Only the people who came to the trade fair tonight were left in the pub.
“Gentlemen.
“The trade fair will be held as scheduled tonight.
“Thank you for coming.
“As for the goods this time, it definitely won’t let you down.”
In an empty space on the second floor of the tavern, the owner with a big belly said some boring opening remarks.
A few minutes later, the entire trade fair finally officially began.
The items were taken out by the owner of the tavern one by one and arranged in order on the second floor. Among them was the elven banshee that Bai Yu wanted to buy.
It was a young girl with nearly 100% transparent wings on her back.
She had a delicate face, a fair jaw, and skin that could be broken with a blow. She was dressed in sackcloth.
Her hands, feet, and neck were all shackled, and her pale green eyes were filled with fear and uneasiness.
‘There was a person in charge of every item.
This was not the model of an auction.
All participants who came to the Dead Dog Tavern could browse, choose, and leave their price in the hands of the person in charge of the item.
After the fair is over, everyone would bid the highest for the item. Whoever bids the highest can receive their item in secret.
This not only greatly ensures the level of security, but also sells the item more efficiently and reasonably. After all, their purpose is to do business.
Selling each item one by one would be too inefficient and prone to conflict. This would not be good for the owner’s reputation.
After browsing through each item, the staff in charge brought them into the corresponding room and closed the door.
“Dear customers, you may browse around freely.
“This time, there are not only newly developed weapons and potions, but also some items that can not be bought even if you have money on the market.
“Don’t worry as we have special security measures. All customer safety issues are under our consideration. You can be at ease and spend as much as you want here.”
The tavern owner clapped his hands.
The lights in the entire tavern suddenly changed, and melodious background music was played. Under the dark neon lights, the faces of the people nearby could not be seen clearly.
It was like dancing in a disco.
“Gentlemen, please choose a mask.”
The real bunny girl wore a maid uniform as she walked over. The tray in her hands was filled with all kinds of masks.
There were dozens of people in the entire tavern.
“If this kind of high-end goods is ruined by others, it will not be worth much.
“So whether it is physically or mentally, she is in the perfect state.”
The man said proudly.
Bai Yu looked at the elven banshee on the stool.
It was exactly as the person in charge had said.
Apart from the fear and helplessness in his eyes, his spirit, energy, and spirit were all normal.
However…
How could this banshee have short hair, b*stard!
Could short hair succeed?
On the potion formula was a tuft of elven banshee’s fragrant hair. Bai Yu did not know how long this tuft was exactly.
In addition, hair was not a common potion ingredient, so Bai Yu could only buy an elven banshee to find out.
Even if the potion formula failed, he could get a new measurement for a tuft of hair.
After listening to the man’s introduction for a while, Bai Yu walked to the side of the quote board and wrote down the figure of 1.5 million.
1.5 million dollars.
That was enough to buy a house in the Eastern District.
Of course, for Bai Yu, who owned an entire apartment complex, this was not a lot.
“Please leave a message or other contact information. Once the price exceeds your offer, we will inform you effective immediately,” the person in charge said with a smile.
Bai Yu nodded.
The two of them turned around and went to the first floor of the tavern, quietly waiting for the trade fair to end.
The second floor was a trading venue, while the first floor was a place for entertainment.
The customers who had completed the trade or were waiting for them were all on the first floor. The music gradually became more and more explosive, and the smell of alcohol filled the air.
Many people brought their handmaidens along as they danced on the dance floor. As long as they were willing to pay, they could bring these handmaidens home. They were carefully selected and specially provided entertainment for these people.
“Sir, would you like to have a drink?”
At this moment, a soft voice sounded from behind them.
Awoman with a ruddy face, revealing clothes, and an intoxicating scent walked up to Bai Yu and Qin Shou with a glass of red wine in her hand.
She was very beautiful. Moreover, her every movement seemed natural and full of fatal temptation to men.
The most important point was that she was a human.
Bai Yu stared at her and said subconsciously, “No, I hate drinking..”
