Transmigrated To Ancient Time: Thrive With An Auction System!-Chapter 263: Slave Broker ( 3 )

Yao Zhi frowned when she heard the clerk’s words and said, "If you are unwilling to buy them, then just say so." As soon as she said this, she turned around and left.

Seeing that she was leaving, the clerk quickly rushed over to stop her. She blocked her way and said with a smile, "Young Master, I’m just joking. Please don’t be angry."

She examined Xi Wu and Xi Liu for a long time before saying, "Considering their background and appearance, I will take them."

It was hard to find slaves who were literate and good-looking. She might be able to sell them to wealthy families as personal maids at a high price.

After making up her mind, the clerk went to write the agreement and prepare the money.

After Yao Zhi counted the money, she handed the agreement to Xi Wu and said, "Keep this agreement safe." Before leaving, she added, "Whatever your future holds, it will depend on your own effort and choices."

"Master..." Xi Wu called out. But before she could chase after her, her shoulder was grabbed by the clerk.

The clerk smiled at them and said, "Girl, you have met a good master. Unfortunately, you don’t have the good fortune to follow him."

She glanced at the agreement and added, "Since I already promised him, I won’t make things difficult for both of you. As long as you listen to me and follow my arrangements, you won’t be treated badly."

After saying this, she called out, "Aunt Wang, bring them to the side yard and teach them the rules." 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

An old woman called Aunt Wang walked over and curtsied. "Understood."

She held Xi Wu and Xi Liu’s hands as she led them to the side yard. As they were pulled away, they turned and saw the carriage leaving.

From then on, they understood that their ties with their legal mother and legitimate siblings had been cut off. Born to a concubine, no one would remember them anymore.

Meanwhile, Xi Si was lost in her thoughts as they left Zhu’an town. She wanted to get her revenge. But now that both of Meng Yiniang’s daughters were sold, she suddenly felt everything was meaningless.

Even if she killed Meng Yiniang and her daughters, it wouldn’t bring her father and her relatives back to life. Killing them would only bring trouble to her Master.

She owed her life to her Master; she couldn’t repay her kindness with enmity.

Reaching this conclusion, she took a deep breath and let out a long, shaky sigh. She opened the window curtain and saw the vast, desolate land around her.

Before coming here, she had heard a lot of rumors and stories about the conditions in the northern border. The journey here was not easy, and she saw a lot of people die on the road to their exile.

Before meeting her Master, she thought that her family would end up with a fate worse than death. When she was bought, she thought that her Master would use them as tools to warm the bed.

It was only today, when she found out that their Master was actually a woman, that she understood that her Master was a very kind-hearted person.

She saved their lives and arranged a place for them to stay, giving them food and clothes. She even promised to help them get new identities and live as good commoners.

This life-saving grace, she, Gu Yunjie, would remember for the rest of her life and will repay it with her life.

Not knowing that her position in someone’s heart had reached a very high level, Yao Zhi drove the carriage to the abandoned temple. After telling Xi Si to wait on the roadside, she drove the carriage to the back of the temple.

She changed the carriage for her donkey and took off her disguise. When she returned, Xi Si was surprised to see how young her Master was.

Yao Zhi helped her sit on the donkey before climbing onto it herself and riding it back to the village.

When they returned, Xi Si was stunned to see the mud house. She thought that her Master would be living in a beautiful courtyard, if not a mansion. She never expected her to live in this dilapidated house.

Soon after they walked into the yard, Ling Shi’er came out from the backyard with Xi Qi following after him like a little tail.

The moment she saw her brother, Xi Si rushed over and hugged him. She checked him from head to toe before saying, "Ah Yan, are you behaving well when I’m not around?"

After consuming the spiritual spring water, Xi Qi slowly recovered his intelligence and nodded at his sister’s words.

Seeing this, Xi Si was so overjoyed that she couldn’t help but tear up. She hugged her brother and said, "From now on, Sister will stay with you."

Xi Qi clapped his hands and giggled.

Ling Shi’er ignored her and went to take the reins from Yao Zhi’s hand. "Master, you are back."

Yao Zhi nodded at him and said, "From now on, they will stay in the side room beside your room." After saying this, she took out one Clear Heart pill and gave it to him.

Ling Shi’er met her gaze for a second before he ate the pill without hesitation. Yao Zhi was pleased by his action and patted his shoulder with a bright smile.

After giving him a pill, she fed Xi Qi one pill too. Now that everyone had already formed a blood contract with her, she didn’t have any worries anymore.

It was already past noon, so she cooked a simple lunch for them: hot and sour chicken noodles. While they ate, she suddenly remembered that she had forgotten to buy things to decorate the new rooms.

After lunch, she returned to her room and opened the system’s shop. She browsed for a while before buying two curtains, two beddings, one blanket, two frame-hung mosquito nets, and three pillows. She spent a total of 186 points on this shopping.
