Start by integrating Ran Min and starting with the strategy of Lady Bian

The auction started as a young man from the Hongnong Yang family offered 31,000 coins to redeem Madam Bian.

"Haha, my Luoyang Ma family bids 35,000 coins. Please give me some face!"

"You still want face for 35,000 coins? My Luoyang Wang family bids 40,000 coins!"

"I bid 43,000 coins!"

"48,000 coins!"

...

The bidding price for Madam Bian in the Hongxing Building rose steadily, and every time it sounded, it shocked those casual visitors who were just watching the excitement.

Soon, the bidding price rose all the way to 60,000 coins.

With this price, many people who followed the price gave up.

They calmed down.

No matter how pretty and beautiful Bian was, she was just a woman for fun.

Although if they took the money, they would feel proud and their vanity would be satisfied.

However, more than 60,000 coins was too much. Even the average wealthy family might not have 60,000 coins in their lifetime savings, which was enough to make many ordinary families suffer.

Too much!

In the hall, Cao Cao, who had been listening nervously, breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the price rise to 60,000 coins and finally no one followed.

Similarly, the tense faces of Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu finally relaxed.

Cao Cao couldn't help but speak first: "I bid 61,000 coins. Everyone, give me Cao Cao a face!"

As soon as Cao Cao opened his mouth, the onlookers were in a commotion.

They knew Cao Cao, and Cao Cao was very famous in Luoyang.

A few years ago, Cao Cao, who was the commander of the northern part of Luoyang, used a five-colored stick to kill the uncle of Jian Shuo, a eunuch favored by Emperor Liu Hong, and became famous.

More importantly, Cao Cao is the son of Cao Song, who is now one of the Nine Ministers and holds the positions of Grand Herald and Grand Minister of Agriculture.

As soon as Cao Cao spoke, the onlookers immediately understood that the real competition for the most powerful and wealthy in Luoyang for the most beautiful woman had just begun.

"This..."

As soon as Cao Cao spoke, several family members who were originally quite wealthy hesitated, and finally did not speak and continued to bid.

"Haha, Brother Meng De, we don't care about face here. We only care about money in front of beauties. Shu bids 70,000 coins to redeem Miss Bian!"

Just when many people did not dare to speak, a chuckle sounded, and the price was directly raised by another 10,000 coins, which shocked the onlookers. They all looked and saw that the one who spoke was Yuan Shu, who was sitting in the front seat.

Yuan Shu's speech also caused a commotion among many people.

Because the Yuan family is also a top family in the Han Dynasty, and Yuan Shu is the legitimate son of the Yuan family.

"Haha, Shao is here to join in the fun, 80,000 coins!"

Another laugh sounded, but it was Yuan Shao who spoke up and also joined the auction.

Yuan Shao directly raised the price to 80,000 coins, and Yuan Shu, who was smiling, suddenly looked ugly.

"Gentlemen, Master Benchu ​​of the Yuan family offers 80,000 coins. Is there anyone who offers a higher price? If not, Miss Bian will be redeemed by Master Benchu!"

The price rose to 80,000 coins, and the madam's face was almost smiling. While she was talking, she looked at Yuan Shu and Cao Cao.

"Cao offers 81,000 coins!" Cao Cao looked at Bian again, took a deep breath, and said solemnly.

"This master offers 85,000 coins!" Yuan Shu, with a gloomy face, followed closely and raised the price again.

"Eighty-eight thousand coins!" Yuan Shao looked at Yuan Shu, his eyes flickering, and his voice rang out, as if targeting Yuan Shu.

"You..."

Yuan Shu heard Yuan Shao's targeting, his face flushed, looked at Yuan Shao coldly, and once again uttered a number that made everyone feel dumbfounded.

"Ninety thousand coins, this Miss Bian, Shu wants it!"

"Ninety-one thousand coins, Miss Bian is Shao's!"

Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu's voices rang out alternately, and in a blink of an eye the price reached ninety-one thousand coins, which made all the onlookers unable to help but admire the Yuan family's wealth.

But Cao Cao's face was very ugly at this time. Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu shouted out their anger, and neither of them admitted defeat. It was Cao Cao who was implicated.

"I will offer 98,000 coins. This is all the money I can raise. It's a fixed price. If Benchu ​​and Gonglu offer more than I do, I will withdraw and Miss Bian will give up the price!"

Cao Cao said solemnly, his voice resounding throughout the hall, shocking the onlookers, who all looked at Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu.

However, surprisingly, Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao fell silent at the same time, and did not speak again, and seemed to have no intention of bidding again.

Yes, after Cao Cao offered 98,000 coins, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu no longer had any intention of bidding.

It's not that they can't raise a higher price.

As the top children of the Yuan family in the Han Dynasty, they naturally wouldn't say that they couldn't raise 100,000 coins. As long as they asked, someone would send 200,000 coins.

But this price to redeem a woman seems a bit too unprofessional, which is not good for their competition for the family heir.

"Gentlemen, Mr. Cao has offered 98,000 coins. Is there anyone who can offer a higher price? If not, Miss Bian will be redeemed by Mr. Cao!"

The price rose to 98,000 coins, and the madam was very happy. This was definitely a sky-high price, but who would think that the money was too much? The madam was still a little unwilling to be greedy. While talking, she looked at Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao expectantly.

But to the madam's disappointment, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu stopped talking. The madam did not hesitate and said to Cao Cao with a smile:

"Since no one has offered a higher price than Mr. Cao, Yu'er will be redeemed by Mr. Cao..."

The madam's sweet laughter sounded, and even Mrs. Bian looked at the short and fat Cao Cao with complicated eyes.

However, before the madam finished speaking, she was interrupted by a voice that went straight to the heart.

"Li Xiang, a descendant of the Longxi Li family, offers 100,000 coins to redeem Miss Bian!"

"Hmm?"

Cao Cao, who was smiling and wanted to take the beauty home, froze.

Mrs. Bian, with complicated beautiful eyes, trembled and was stunned on the spot.

Yuan Shao was stunned!

Yuan Shu was also stunned!

Many individual guests and dignitaries in the hall were stunned.

Someone offered 100,000 coins to redeem Miss Bian!

In an instant, the whole audience was in an uproar.

Everyone looked at the person who spoke, even Mrs. Bian turned her head.

Soon, the person who spoke came into view.

Li Xiang was 1.88 meters tall, standing out in the crowd, and was instantly noticed by everyone.

Seeing that the person who spoke was a handsome young man with a tough temperament, everyone's eyes were filled with surprise.

But they were surprised by Li Xiang's appearance.

It's not that Li Xiang is so handsome, but Li Xiang is tall and strong, with clear lines, tough temperament, and an inexplicable powerful aura on his body, which is absolutely heart-pounding.

This is exactly the case. Mrs. Bian looked at Li Xiang, her beautiful eyes bursting with color, and she couldn't take her eyes away.

Even the women who were embraced by dignitaries stared at Li Xiang in a daze, their eyes were full of infatuation, and they exclaimed in their hearts that he was such a handsome man.

After a moment of surprise, the men in the hall were the first to react. Seeing Li Xiang, who looked outstanding but was extremely unfamiliar, many dignitaries sitting in the seats were unhappy.

"Pay 100,000 yuan? A descendant of the Longxi Li family? How come I don't know any wealthy families in Longxi? Are you kidding me?"

"A descendant of the Longxi Li family? I have never heard of a person like Li Xiang. Can a noble family in the poor and remote Longxi come up with 100,000 yuan?"

"I do know that the Longxi Li family was at its peak during the Former Han Dynasty when the family of General Li Guang was exterminated. However, that happened many years ago. The family of Li Ling, the grandson of Li Guang, was executed, and the Li family was scattered. Where is the big Li family in Longxi that can come up with 100,000 yuan to redeem a courtesan?"

"That's right. Is this guy here to cause trouble and cheat? He doesn't even have a position, and he still wants to come up with 100,000 yuan?"

...

In the hall, a group of dignitaries and nobles raised their voices of dissatisfaction and disdain, but they didn't believe that Li Xiang could come up with 100,000 yuan.

Not to mention that they had never heard of any wealthy families or noble families in the Longxi Li family.

Just because Li Xiang stood like those casual guests, they looked down on him.

Because today was the day when the courtesan of Hongxinglou was redeemed once every few years, not everyone could come in.

The threshold fee was as high as five hundred coins.

After paying five hundred coins, you just entered the door, but there was no seat to sit.

To have a seat, you need one thousand coins.

However, even if you want to pay one thousand coins, you may not have a seat.

You also need aristocratic status.

So those who can have a seat must not only have money but also status!

So, seeing Li Xiang standing like the casual guests, a group of dignitaries not only did not believe Li Xiang but also felt disdain for him.

At this time, Cao Cao listened to the discussions around him, his face darkened, and he looked at Li Xiang with hostility, saying:

"Are you here to make fun of Cao Cao, my friend? Where is the noble family of Longxi Li? Do you really think I, Cao Cao, am easy to bully?"

Cao Cao was angry, and the dignitaries around him laughed gloatingly, looking at Li Xiang in unison.

Li Xiang still had a smile on his face, but Li E, the follower beside Li Xiang, was very nervous. He pulled Li Xiang and whispered:

"Master, we can't afford to offend these powerful people. We have money, so we can find women everywhere. E, go find ten for you. Don't fight with them!"

The ugly Li E with a full beard was a little scared. He grew up in Longxi with Li Xiang since he was a child.

The biggest person I have ever seen is the county magistrate.

However, any one of them here is much more powerful than the county magistrate.

How can Cao Cao's anger frighten the young Li Xiang?

Li Xiang was afraid, but Li Xiang was smiling. Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu and others, Li Xiang, naturally can't afford to offend them now, because they are all the top children of the Han Dynasty. In the future, they are the sons of the second and third in command.

However, if you can't afford to offend them, will you watch Cao Cao take Madam Bian into your pocket?

You must know that as long as you redeem Madam Bian, he, Li Xiang, can add a talented and beautiful wife and mother to the Li family, and can also get the system reward [Three Hundred Beggars' Souls] and [Five Hundred Thousand Five Baht Coins].

What is the Beggar Army?

In history, Ran Min once led hundreds of Beggars' Army to kill into tens of thousands of enemy troops, killing in and out. It can be seen that the Beggar Army is powerful, and it is absolutely no problem to fight ten with one.

Add to that 500,000 five-zhu coins and Madam Bian herself, what can this do?

After integrating the template of Emperor Ran Min, Li Xiang's military power became stronger than ever before, and he became bolder. He didn't need to be timid, even if the other party was the son of the top dignitaries of the Han Dynasty.

Under the gaze of everyone, Li Xiang smiled and said to the shocked and angry Cao Cao:

"You haven't heard of the Longxi Li family before, but now you have heard of it!"

"In addition, Xiang only needs 100,000 coins to redeem Madam Bian, right?! Hongxinglou doesn't stipulate that a certain family status is required, right? The 100,000 coins are outside Hongxinglou. If you don't believe it, just take it!"

Li Xiang said to Cao Cao with a humble smile.

"What? I haven't heard of it before, but now I have heard of it? The 100,000 coins are outside Hongxinglou?"

Li Xiang's words made the others in the hall uproar.

Cao Cao was even more shocked and angry, staring at Li Xiang.

Li Xiang said that he had never heard of the Longxi Li family before, but now he has heard of it? What a crazy tone!

"What a crazy tone! Cao Cao thought he was crazy, but when he was your age, he was not as crazy as you?"

Cao Cao's angry voice sounded, but Li Xiang ignored Cao Cao and looked at the madam.

"This... this young master, do you really have 100,000 yuan?"

The madam looked at Li Xiang with some doubt and couldn't help asking.

Hearing the madam's question, Li Xiang said directly:

"Li E, go and ask A Niu and the others to move in 100,000 yuan!"

"Ah, this, the young master really wants to move..." Li E was so anxious that he almost cried, but seeing that Li Xiang seemed to have made up his mind, Li E gritted his teeth and ran out of Hongxinglou under the suspicious eyes of everyone.

Going to move money?

Indeed, Li E went to move money.

He Li Xiang really has money!

The novice gift package reward gave 200,000 five-zhu coins.

Of course, these 200,000 five-zhu coins did not appear out of thin air, but in the lair of a group of bandits.

After Li Xiang integrated the template of Emperor Ran Min, he went there in person.

He swept the bandits and put the money in his pocket, and also took a dozen younger brothers from the bandits.

So, he, Li Xiang, is really rich!

Soon, under the stunned gaze of a group of dignitaries and the madam, Li E led a dozen young men carrying sacks of sacks and walked in one after another.

Cut it open with a sword, and a large number of five-zhu coins fell to the ground.

"Hiss~"

Seeing this, Cao Cao, Madam Bian and others were stunned.

Li Xiang is really rich!

On the spot, Li Xiang counted several sacks of 100,000 coins and handed them to the madam.

Moreover, Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu and a group of dignitaries did not argue with Li Xiang.

It was because they found that outside the Hongxing Building, Li Xiang still had several carriages loaded with sacks that had not been unloaded.

And the sacks unloaded with 100,000 coins only accounted for half of the carriages.

In other words, Li Xiang brought several carriages with 200,000 five-zhu coins to visit the brothel to redeem the courtesan Bian.

Desperate.

Too desperate.

Although they were also prepared to spend tens of thousands of five-zhu coins to redeem the courtesan Bian, who would bring money directly to the brothel?

Although Cao Cao was extremely unwilling, he did not continue to argue with Li Xiang after Li Xiang confirmed that he would shout out 100,000 five-zhu coins.

Even Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were so angry that they could not bear Li Xiang's strong dragon crossing the river, and threatened to lend money to Cao Cao so that Cao Cao could continue to fight for Bian, but Cao Cao did not continue to argue with Li Xiang.

It was already 100,000 five-zhu coins, which was already very high.

How could a courtesan in a brothel be worth 200,000 five-zhu coins?

Finally, with Madam Bian's beautiful eyes trembling, the uproar of the dignitaries, and Cao Cao's unwilling gaze, the madam handed Madam Bian's delicate hand to Li Xiang.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for redeeming Madam Bian and adding a good wife and mother to the Li family. The Li family has grown stronger, and the host is rewarded with [Three Hundred Beggar Soldiers' Souls] and [Five Hundred Thousand Five Baht Coins]. ]

[Reminder to the host, the host can use the Three Hundred Beggar Soldiers' Souls at any time

Use. ]

[Remind the host that 500,000 five-zhu coins are in the bandit's nest 30 miles south of Luoyang City. The host can go and get them at any time. With the host's force, it will be effortless! ]

A series of reminders sounded, and 300 beggars' souls and 500,000 five-zhu coins were in hand. Li Xiang held Madam Bian's soft and slippery little hand, and a smile appeared on his face.

With 300 beggars' souls and the martial arts of Emperor Ran Min, he Li Xiang did not need to be timid, even if he offended Cao Cao and others.

"Li E, A Niu, find a large mansion in Luoyang and hang "Li Mansion". This young master wants to re-establish the Longxi Li family!"

Stepping out of Hongxing Tower, Li Xiang narrowed his eyes and spoke.

Li E, who was full of beards, and Zeng A Niu, who was sturdy and strong beside him, and exuded a fierce aura, and more than a dozen younger brothers were all excited.

Zeng Aniu was a former bandit leader. Thinking of the powerful martial arts that Li Xiang had shown before, he said excitedly:

"With your bravery, you will surely revive the reputation of the Longxi Li family. The future Li family may even be stronger than your ancestor, General Li Guang!"

Yes, Li Xiang's predecessor was the bloodline of Li Guang, a general of the Western Han Dynasty.

However, Li Xiang's predecessor was not from the lineage of Li Ling, but from the lineage of Li Gan.
