Soon, the auction came to an end.
At this moment, a female attendant led a stunningly beautiful girl in a white dress with a gentle temperament onto the auction stage.
This girl had snow-like soft hair, milky white skin, and delicate features. However, she had a pair of fox ears on her head, and a section of a fox tail extended from her buttocks.
Obviously, this was a fox girl!
However, the section of fox tail extending from her buttocks looked very strange, as if it had not fully developed.
(Adding an original character at the request of a reader.)
Inside the private room, Qi Lin looked at the fox girl on the auction stage below, frowned slightly, and then looked at Ning Fengzhi.
"Uncle Ning, do you also auction slaves here?"
Although he felt uncomfortable watching it, he also knew that this kind of situation was common on the continent.
Even if the continent was unified and a ban was issued, there would still be people auctioning slaves, at most just shifting from the open to the underground.
Ning Fengzhi heard this, then glanced faintly at the fox girl below.
"With the wealth of my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, we don't need to auction slaves to make a profit."
As he said this, a hint of pride was evident on his face.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is the wealthiest on the continent, and they really don't care about this small amount of money.
But then he changed his tone.
"However, if someone puts slaves in my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's auction house for consignment, as long as they meet the auction standards, we still won't refuse."
Ning Fengzhi finished speaking and looked at Qi Lin.
Young people are always the most full of justice. The reason he explained was that he didn't want to affect his relationship with Qi Lin because of this.
Of course, Ning Fengzhi didn't need to deceive Qi Lin on this point. Relying on auctioning slaves to make a profit was, in Ning Fengzhi's view, a low-class business that completely lowered his status.
You should know that the main reason why the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has been able to accumulate its current wealth is because the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda can identify treasures.
Of course, Ning Fengzhi not auctioning slaves does not mean he won't buy slaves. In the end, he is also an aristocratic class, and there are quite a few slaves in his family. Not long ago, he bid for a cat girl at the Heaven Dou Auction House.
"Brother Qi Lin, even if these auctioned slaves are not auctioned in our family's auction house, they will be auctioned in other auction houses. Just like the slave below, her appearance is destined to attract countless people's covetousness. Even if she is rescued, she will eventually fall into the hands of others."
"If you feel sorry for her, just bid for her. Anyway, our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has plenty of money and can afford to support a slave."
Ning Rongrong said with a face of wealth and generosity.
In the past, she had followed her father to many auction houses and encountered many such situations. At first, she also felt very uncomfortable, but after a long time, she also knew that such situations could not be prevented.
At this time, the auctioneer on the auction stage also began to introduce the auctioned fox girl.
It turned out that this person was born in a city near the Extreme North. She was born with a special hair color. However, when her Spirit awakened at the age of six, the Spirit awakening failed. Not only did she not have innate spirit power, but she eventually became what she is now.
As she grew older, her appearance became more and more outstanding, especially with her fox ears and fox tail, which eventually attracted the attention of human traffickers, who sold her to a duke of the Heaven Dou Empire.
Unfortunately, the duke's wife was a jealous woman. Before the duke could enjoy her, she was sent to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's auction house by his wife.
With the introduction completed, one by one, influential figures in the auction house began to compete for this fox girl.
Especially those top nobles and patriarchs of large families.
Qi Lin heard this and said, "Then bid for her."
The reason why he spoke was not only because he felt sorry for the fox girl, but also for another reason.
There seemed to be something on this fox girl that resonated with his second Spirit.
This was the first time Qi Lin had discovered such a situation since he crossed over.
Hearing Qi Lin speak, Ning Rongrong immediately raised her placard.
The starting price of the fox girl was two hundred thousand gold coins, and each increase could not be less than five thousand gold coins.
In just a moment, the price of the fox girl was raised to two hundred and fifty thousand.
Not long ago, the cat girl that Ning Fengzhi bid for at the Heaven Dou Auction House was only one hundred and eighty thousand gold coins.
With Ning Rongrong's move, she directly raised the price to three hundred thousand.
This price should be the highest price for a slave in nearly ten years.
When this price was called out, the sound of bidding in the auction house suddenly stopped.
Not only because the price was too high, but also because they knew who the bidder was, and naturally no one dared not to give face to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
"Three hundred thousand gold coins for the first time, three hundred thousand gold coins for the second time, three hundred thousand gold coins for the third time."
"Sold!"
After bidding for the fox girl, the auction continued. The last auction item was a six-thousand-year-old left arm Spirit Bone. Although it did not reach ten thousand years, it still fetched a sky-high price and was bid for by a Spirit Douluo.
For a Titled Douluo, a thousand-year Spirit Bone is too mediocre, but for a Spirit Douluo, it is still a rare treasure.
After the auction ended, Qi Lin, Ning Rongrong, Ning Fengzhi, and Sword Douluo, led by a female attendant, came to a room in the backstage of the auction house.
Then, a row of women filed in from outside the room, each holding an auction item in their hands.
These were all the auction items that Qi Lin had just bid for.
And the one walking at the end was the fox girl just now.
From the moment she was brought onto the auction stage, she already knew her fate. She looked delicate and weak, her eyes filled with confusion and helplessness.
After Qi Lin put all the other auction items into his storage bracelet, he came to the fox girl. Her hands were handcuffed, and her wrists were chafed red.
"Unlock the handcuffs on her hands."
The female attendant standing next to her heard this and immediately unlocked her handcuffs, then respectfully handed Qi Lin a contract.
"Esteemed guest, this is her slave contract. From now on, she is your person."
Qi Lin took the contract and looked at the information on it.
The fox girl's name was Xue Ling, fourteen years old, and her Spirit should be a mutated and failed Snow Fox.
Xue Ling saw Qi Lin take the contract. The clean and handsome young man gave her a warm feeling. Feeling the young man's gaze, she felt as if she was in a warm ray of sunshine.
Originally, Xue Ling was very scared, but after seeing Qi Lin, she suddenly couldn't be afraid anymore.
"M-Master!"
Xue Ling looked at Qi Lin cautiously and called out tentatively.
Qi Lin looked at her like this, then smiled gently.
"From now on, you will follow me. My house is still short of a maid to clean."
