The Chapter get Retranslated
Ye Jia was honored as a distinguished guest and assigned a special front-row seat, from which he could easily see the stage.
Although spending over a hundred thousand Beli in one go seemed extravagant, Ye Jia wasn't worried at all.
Wasn't there the vast industry of the Buin Family at his disposal?
What was given out, would eventually return.
It was merely moving money from one hand to the other.
"Ye Jia, look over there."
Qiu Li leaned close to Ye Jia's ear and whispered, then pointed a finger in a direction.
Ye Jia followed her gaze and, seeing the person Qiu Li indicated, his eyes flashed.
"Gordon Abner... a cadre of the Buin Family!"
Intelligence showed that Gordon Abner was an elite backbone of the Buin Family, having once slain a great pirate with a bounty of 48 million Beli, his strength was outstanding.
But this man had a major flaw: he was lustful.
Gordon Abner was a regular at a place like the Red Woman Building, almost daily. If he didn't show up one day, it was certainly because he had accepted a mission and was ordered to kill an enemy.
With a thick beard and a robust, bulging physique, he had several scantily clad beauties clinging to his arms, his large hands wandering incessantly over their bodies, fondling them as if no one else was present.
"It's the first time for the headliner auction today, so it's not strange for him to be here."
Ye Jia smiled, "It's also a good opportunity to see what kind of strength a cadre of the Buin Family possesses."
After cultivating for so long, Ye Jia hadn't fully tested the extent of his progress.
An elite backbone of the Buin Family... what a perfect touchstone?
Many nobles from Babastan were also present.
These nobles were all affiliated with the Buin Family, becoming Delairon's helpers, vigorously exploiting the common people of Babastan.
Even though Babastan was just a small patch of land, as an essential route on the Grand Line, there was plenty of profit to be made. To control a large portion of the economy here was an extraordinary feat.
This showed how terrifying the Buin Family's influence in Babastan was.
"They're here! They're here!"
"Si Qingluo has appeared!"
"So beautiful! No one will snatch her from me today, Si Qingluo's first time... I'm claiming it!"
At this moment, the hall suddenly stirred.
Many nobles' eyes lit up, gazing covetously at a graceful figure appearing on the second floor.
Ye Jia and Qiu Li also looked up after hearing the commotion.
At this sight, even they couldn't help but be captivated by that enchanting figure.
"Truly beautiful... this figure, this face, it's even more perfect than Angelina Jolie!"
Angelina Jolie was Ye Jia's dream goddess, and no one had ever surpassed her.
Yet, this woman, who surpassed Angelina Jolie, had appeared!
It was precisely that graceful figure slowly walking along the second floor!
A devilish figure, a voluptuous body.
Her face, exquisite like a porcelain treasure, more beautiful than a painting, was adorned with delicate red headwear. She wore a long red dress that trailed on the ground, moving forward with each step she took.
"Is this the Red Woman Building's headliner, Si Qingluo? At sixteen, she possesses the youthful face of a maiden, the vitality of twenty, the charm of thirty, and the allure of forty... No wonder so many people are crazy for her!"
Ye Jia was awestruck by Si Qingluo.
Even someone with such strong willpower like him was attracted to Si Qingluo. The other nobles, who were originally there for Si Qingluo, screamed madly, their eyes glowing green like wolves, eager to pounce and devour Si Qingluo.
Gordon Abner was no different.
After seeing Si Qingluo, the beauties beside him instantly paled in comparison. He seemed entranced, utterly lost in Si Qingluo's beauty.
Pushing the women beside him away, Gordon Abner swallowed hard.
"She's mine... she's mine!"
Gordon Abner let out a low growl, his eyes filled with desire.
With Si Qingluo's appearance, the scene almost plunged into madness.
The huge commotion drew out many people who were in the middle of "doing business." When they saw Si Qingluo, they didn't even want to continue what they were doing, staring intently, drooling everywhere.
"Gentlemen! This is our Red Woman Building's headliner, Si Qingluo!"
The madam walked onto the stage, seeing the men below with red eyes, shouting and screaming for Si Qingluo. Knowing she would make a huge profit today, her smile grew even brighter.
"Si Qingluo has been favored by many regular patrons for two years, but everyone knows the rules of the Red Woman Building. A top-tier beauty like Si Qingluo, who has both figure and looks, is skilled in art, and exceptional in bed... so, she won't lose her innocence until she comes of age!"
The madam said with a smile, "Today, Si Qingluo has come of age, and your two-year-long wish can finally be fulfilled! I don't need to say more, you all understand the rules, right?"
"Si Qingluo will only serve one person tonight. Her first time will only be given to the one who values her most, loves her most, and is most willing to spend money for her. Gentlemen, you must seize this opportunity! Miss tonight, and it will be gone forever!"
The madam's words made the guests below even more frenzied.
Many even began to urge impatiently for the madam to stop talking and start the auction directly.
It was clear that many people came tonight just for Si Qingluo, and their excitement and determination showed they were fully prepared.
"Good! Since all you esteemed guests are impatient, let's invite Si Qingluo to perform a song for us, and in the lingering melody, we will determine her ultimate ownership!"
At the madam's signal, Si Qingluo slowly walked to the center of the stage and gracefully sat down.
Taking a beautiful red harp, Si Qingluo plucked the strings, producing melodious sounds.
"The bidding starts now, with a reserve price of one hundred thousand Beli!"
The madam announced loudly.
One hundred thousand Beli for a woman's first time, this deal wouldn't be cost-effective anywhere.
But for the Red Woman Building's headliner, Si Qingluo, one hundred thousand Beli was just the minimum reserve price.
"Two hundred thousand Beli!"
As soon as the madam's voice fell, a guest eagerly made a bid.
"Three hundred thousand Beli!"
"Five hundred thousand Beli!"
"I bid one million Beli!"
"..."
The price soared wildly.
Ye Jia was also slightly surprised. Although Si Qingluo was perfect, beautiful with a devilish figure, it was only for one night, yet such a high price was being offered?
What he didn't know was that these guests wanted not only Si Qingluo but also the prestige.
To win the first night of the headliner in Babastan's largest Red Woman Building, located in a land where every inch was precious, this honor would be highly coveted in Babastan.
Whoever could achieve it would be considered a celebrity in Babastan after tonight!
