50 Unearthing Talent

Upon hearing these words, Lu Hou was scared out of his wits. How could a commoner possibly sit at the same table and share wine with a prince?

In the eyes of the barbarians, slaves and livestock were no different whatsoever. They could be beaten or killed at a whim, let alone be given meals.

Although Lin Ye had previously accompanied his grandfather, Old Jack, to Notting City, this trip was an entirely different matter altogether.

"Alright, everyone take a rest first," Lü Lingqi instructed the remaining three to do as they pleased, while she sat in the back seat and closed her eyes to rest.

Su Nian climbed out of bed, stretched his somewhat stiff shoulders and back, practiced a set of routines with his upper body bare, and then put on his clothes to wash up.

Previously, they had been given professional lectures on agricultural technology, but this time Qiao Xin intended to make them reflect deeply on their past behaviors and actions outside over the years.

What he said was indeed the truth. Setting up a stall meant give and take; seasoned bargainers possessed extraordinary vision, making it difficult to extract much profit from veterans. Fooling novices was the eternal truth of the street market.

Although Old Wei had an affair, he had saved Sister Jing, treated the Jiang family well, and served as a major pillar of support for them. Of course, Sister Jing's presence was part of it, but regardless, without Old Wei, Sister Jing and her family surely would not be living as comfortably as they were now. Her family had to know how to show gratitude.

Upon seeing Master Fama, the president of the Alchemist Guild, walking down the stairs, Foklan and Otto hurriedly bowed in respect.

Su Nian was somewhat surprised that they would actually go to the other person's home. However, since they had already put it that way, he raised no objections.

Zhuo Jin's imposing aura flared and vanished instantly, and then his gaze swept over these twelve horses.

Although Luo Jinhuang did not say it aloud, she and Qin Tianjue had just secretly pledged their hearts to one another when Qin Tianjue went into closed-door seclusion, inevitably causing her to overthink.

The exquisite porcelain on the table fell and shattered into pieces, scattering the dishes all over Han Longxing's body.

"I must protect the Village Hidden in the Leaf, because I am the Hokage." Senju Tsunade looked down at the Hidden Leaf Village, turned her head to look at the Hokage Monument, and said with determination.

"Little sister, we've brought back a few fine horses from beyond the border. Would you like to take a look in a moment?" Tiemu Zhuolang proposed with great enthusiasm.

"I understand your intentions, but as a friend, I can never stand idly by and watch a friend in trouble. Even if I survived, I would feel ashamed before you. I am willing to draw swords for a friend and will never hand you over in exchange for temporary peace here," Argus said with a resolute expression.

Xiang Yun stared with a strange expression at the opposite Ji Ji. Remembering how frankly he had introduced himself just now, coupled with his transcendent and otherworldly expression, Xiang Yun momentarily failed to hold back and burst out laughing.

"Huh? What?" Upon hearing Night Feather's words, the spiritual cultivators all turned to look at him, feeling that the name Night Feather gave to this furry creature was quite vulgar.

It is not you giving me a chance, but I giving you a chance! Her side had never had any need for disloyal people, and he had crossed her bottom line.

No matter what Feng Ying was thinking, during the course of their conversation, the auction of the Youth-Preserving Pills had also concluded. Perhaps because the competing forces were evenly matched and everyone knew it was impossible to monopolize all three pills, the final three Youth-Preserving Pills were divided among the Qingyuan Sect, the Sword Sect, and Bibo Island.

Xian Qianxue originally wanted to throw another tantrum, but considering that she needed a favor from someone, she had no choice but to nod in agreement.

Of course, Hua Shu was even more speechless, because besides Dong Chang, she now had another foodie by her side. She felt that in the future, she would never have to worry about not finishing the fruits and vegetables she grew.

Although the atmosphere seemed to have softened considerably, Xu Min knew very well in his heart that all of this was merely the brief calm before the storm arrived.

Ye Chu took a deep breath. Having now left the territory of the Haomeng Sect and being this far away, surely no one could lock onto him with divine sense.

It was then that Guo Dafu discovered that Su Li was sitting right on the back of that silver-white steed! The other party had obviously come out specifically to pick him up.

Liu Fan was also a clever man who had prepared everything in advance. As long as he waited for the arrival of the Yi Province troops and the emperor's permission, he could leave immediately.

He walked into the back room and saw that Gan Ruolan was already lying on the kang, covered with a thin towel quilt.

Yet, Ran Min was actually even stronger than Yan Rou, Tian Chou, and the others. It was just that Liu He currently had too many great generals and too few territories, leaving very few opportunities to command an independent army, which was why he had not had the chance to showcase his abilities.

Under the gaze of Li Chang'an and his companion, the dark wall in the distance suddenly rippled, and a figure slowly walked out.

Ning Yuanlan was wearing thin shoes, and sand had gotten inside, poking her feet painfully. She stopped in her tracks, bent down to take off her shoes, wrung them out with her hands, and walked barefoot on the beach.

"Young master, rest assured, he will be completely fine." The Pagoda-like man put Xiao Ran down, letting him lie on the ground in a deep sleep, and quietly awaited the young master's instructions.

"The Carlton and the Imperial Palace, though judging by the looks of it, the Carlton has a higher chance of winning the bid." Judging from the president staying at the Carlton Hotel, he must have already known that this bidding contest belonged exclusively to the Carlton, which was why he was so confident and explicit in buttering up the boss.

Because within her organization, the masters of the twelve workshops of the Entangling Silk Valley had already joined in great numbers, and such news naturally could not be hidden from him.

She truly missed her older brother, longing to draw strength and the motivation to persevere from his calm demeanor. Her continued confrontation with Yan Zhengxi was essentially an attempt to make herself give up completely. Although she now knew that Xiaoluo's death had nothing to do with her, she could not deny that it was she who had sent Xiaoluo to see Tong Yiliang, meaning she indeed bore some responsibility.

"It's rare for you to be so enthusiastic about playing matchmaker for me. What's wrong with me wanting to listen to a few more words?" Her eyes, as clear as spring water, overflowed with innocent purity, causing An Youran to yield involuntarily.

The cabin was filled entirely with men, and their mobile phones had been confiscated. To be honest, after looking at the surrounding environment, escape was simply out of the question.

Thirty planks plus twenty lashes?! Wasn't this sentencing him to be half-paralyzed?! An Youran jolted awake. If the heir apparent was nowhere to be found when the time came today, he would be the first person to have his ashes scattered! Seized by panic, he jumped up and chased frantically in the direction where the heir apparent had vanished.
