Chapter 431

The barbarian princess stopped struggling and her face had turned red. She was like a ripe fruit infatuating everyone in the brothel. Even Liu Mang could not help but stare at her. This was the charming form of a barbaric woman.

“Two thousand flowers from Sky 8!”

“Three hundred flowers from Lane 2!”

“Three thousand more flowers from Sky 9!”

“Brother. I want this barbarian woman. Can I have some money?” Huang Chen, the younger Huang brother, asked his elder brother. He only had a few hundred gold on hand. As they were brothers, the older brother, Huang Kai, also had the same preference. However, the barbarian was too expensive. It was only possible if the two of them shared their money.

“Good things must be shared between brothers!” Huang Chen added some incentive when he saw his brother’s face. Those words changed his brother’s mind as he also wanted the barbarian. They can just go for a threesome.

“Alright. Go to the other boxes and tell them not to throw any more flowers.” Huang Kai told his servant. If they continue to raise the price, the two of them would not have enough money. Greeting them would force these nobles to give face to the Huang Family.

“Understood.” The servant replied and left. There were over twenty boxes so greeting all of them would take time.

“There are truly so many rich people at Jingzhou!” Liu Mang could not help but mutter. No wonder he managed to sell the ballista so easily. Liu Mang regretted not selling it at a higher price.

Liu Mang also wanted to throw away money like this but there are many other places that requires money. Women are too expensive.

“Brother Wang. We still have seven thousand flowers.” Kuai Ran said to Liu Mang.

“We have seven thousand flowers?”

“Haha. Buying these flowers are useless. You obtained them from buying me and the others. Since you spent seven hundred gold, you have seven thousand flowers!” Yan Ran explained.

“Should we throw these seven thousand flowers to the barbarian?” Liu Mang thought to himself and then shook his head. Liu Mang did not want to be in the limelight for no reason. Seven thousand flowers was too much considering that the others only put in three thousand.

Right after Liu Mang had decided to just watch, a man knocked on the door and said, “Sir. Our two Young Lords hopes for you to give face. They want this barbarian princess and hopes you would no longer throw anymore flowers.”

“Your two Young Lords favors the barbarian princess?” Liu Mang asked in suspicion. He truly envied these rich people for wanting to buy a woman that would most likely be more expensive compared to the six women he bought. What is worse is that Liu Mang bought these six people for others. He did not obtain a single one of them at all.

“Our Young Lords are named Huang.”

“Huang? Are you referring to Huang Kai and Huang Chen?”

“Haha! Give face? Of course we will give face!” Liu Mang laughed. He then lifted a cup at Kuai Ran and asked, “Brother Kuai. Do you think we should give face to the Huang brothers?”

“I will leave it up to Brother Wang.” Kuai Ran gave a faint smile as he understood what Liu Mang intended to do.

“Come! Give all of the seven thousand flowers to Lady Qian Yu!”

The whole brothel ended up in an uproar. Even the rich wouldn’t have this many flowers. One gold was already enough for an average family of five to live for a year. Seven hundred gold was enough for seven centuries. Even small nobles wouldn’t have this much.

“You!” The servant was speechless. He had greeted this man because his Young Lords wanted the barbarian. Instead, the man refused to give face and spend seven thousand flowers. However, he managed to control himself not to rush into the box. If he did so, his life would have been forfeit

“Get lost! Tell your Young Lords that I will never give face to the two cowards of Jingzhou!” Liu Mang shouted towards the servant. These two had offended Liu Mang and Kuai Ran. It would be strange if they actually gave them face.

“What? The guys in Sky 14 dare to say that?” Huang Kai and Huang Chen were furious. Huang Chen wanted to go and settle the score with them but his brother quickly stopped him from breaking the rules of that brothel. The brothel they were in was owned by a person named Liu. This was why Huang Chen could not act. It would also be very shameful if he got thrown out of the brothel.

“The two cowards of Jingzhou?” Huang Kai narrowed his eyes. He would have also crushed the bottle of wine in his hands had it not been made of copper.

“It’s them!” Huang Chen reacted. This was only something Wang Shu of the Lumen Academy called them.

“Kuai Ran! Wang Shu!” Huang Chen gritted his teeth. He believed that Wang Shu was simply Kuai Ran’s supporter. After a while, Huang Chen laughed. “Good! Give more flowers!”

“Hm?” Huang Kai looked at his little brother strangely. Why would his brother laugh after being provoked and also after being denied the barbarian woman? He touched his brother’s head to see if his brother had fallen ill.

“Brother. The barbarian woman may be expensive but we do not need to pay for her!”

“What are you talking about?”

“Brother. Have you forgotten the customs of the sweet feast? We can also compete in talent instead of money.” Huang Chen said with a pleased expression.

There was a rule during the sweet feast that allows people to compete with literary and artistic talent. The loser would have to pay for the winner. Of course, the condition was that both sides must have enough money to be used as mortgage in the first place.

“But this Wang Shu is from the Lumen Academy! Can we win against him?” Huang Kai asked hesitantly. These Lumen Academy students were not hedonistic children like them.

“Haha! So what? Don’t we also have intermediaries from the Lumen Academy?” Huang Chen said with a smile. His smile calmed Huang Kai down. They have many talented friends from the Lumen Academy that could help them.

“Alright. Our Lady Qian Yu here is already flushed and impatient for your love and attention.” The old woman said with a laugh. They had already earned at least one thousand five hundred gold from Qian Yu.

“How often do they have sweet feasts?” Liu Mang asked. The brothel have earned a ridiculous amount for just one day.

“Normally, it happens once a year. However, this year we do it a second time because of the barbarian princess.” Yan Ran explained. Her explanation made Liu Mang feel better. If a person could earn this much every day, why would they want other jobs? Yan Ran also explained that these women all had to be trained in an artistic skill since they were young. These women were trained like noblewomen and also had the diet of one. All of this is to raise their prices higher.

Another possible reason why this brothel could earn so much is because there were no longer any other worthy competitors. The only other brothels would entertain either the lower classes or the military.

“Now is for the most exciting part of our sweet feast! Come! All the beauties, please come onto the stage! Let our sweet feast truly begin!” The old woman spoke in a loud voice. It was loud enough to resound throughout the hall despite the voice not being amplified by a loudspeaker.
