==================
In the afternoon, Orochis group finally reached the town of Chans.
Looking at the high town walls, which were as high as 50 ters, Orochis sighed in relief as they were able to reach their destination in ti.
At the town gates, a huge line of people was ford. And as Orochis group got closer, they could hear people's discussion.
Brother, how co today we have to wait for so long to enter the city?
Dont you know, tomorrow its the yearly auction held by the Golden Cloud Chamber of Comrce. So, many people will co to attend it and see if they could get so rare item in the auction.
And almost all the big powers in the surrounding regions will send their representatives to attend the auction and to acquire things that they are interested in.
Sigh, actually most of the tis, these auctions are only ant for the important and powerful people as anything of worth is easily bought by them. As they hold large amounts of wealth and power.
As for common people like us, if we could even enter the auction, it is already a thing to brag about for few years. As for obtaining things that are being auctioned, hehe... it is just a pipe dream.
Exactly, if common people like us attend the auction, then other than playing the role of spectators we wont have anything else to do. Looking at high bidding price, smacking our lips or clicking tongues or taking a deep breath, and feeling envious after looking at people who are able to spend such huge amounts, other than that we wont do anything else.
So, instead of dreaming things like- How good it would have been if I could own that much money? or sothing similar, we should focus on our work and let the rich people waste their money.
Yes, yes... we should just focus on our work and hope that soday, our children could take the family to a higher level.
.
Orochis group had to join the queue and wait for their turn to enter.
anwhile, they continued listening to various things that people talked about- the town of Chans or the yearly auction, etc.
And finally, after waiting for almost half an hour, it was Orochi and his groups turn.
They paid 30 silver coins as the entry fees and entered the town with their rides [horses].
There was a rchant shop close to the town gates, where Orochi returned the two Storm horses and got his deposit money back.
Then Orochi with his group started looking for an inn to stay in.
The town of Chans is nad after the Chan family which has very high authority in this town.
The reason for which the Chan family can hold such power is because- a hundred years ago, a mber of the Chan family served as the ruler of Windy country. And one day, when the ruler went for a hunt, he was ambushed by his enemies and the Chan family mber put his life on the line and let the ruler escape. And in that process, the Chan clans mber lost his life.
Moved by the bravery, loyalty, and sacrifice of that Chan clans mber, the ruler decided to reward the Chan clan with various things like thousands of golds and silver, cultivation thods, fighting technique manuals, pills, and even a town was given to the Chan family.
So, a small Clan family transford into a huge behemoth called the Chan Clan, and the town was renad as the Town of Chans.
And the mbers of the Chan clan enjoy special privileges in the Windy country. And consider themselves as rulers in the town of Chans.
And due to various resources available in the surrounding areas, the Town of Chans developed at a rapid pace.
.
Orochis group stepped into an inn. After entering, they saw a reception desk where 3 receptionists were handling custors.
Orochi approached one of the receptionists and asked,
Hello, I need two rooms.
The receptionist was a young man, he looked at Orochi and apologized,
I am sorry sir, but all our rooms are full. There are no rooms available,
Orochi nodded and ca out of the inn.
The group enquired in another 5 inns, and they got the sa answer- I am sorry sir, there are no rooms available.
But Orochi could not give up his search for the rooms, as there was still one day left for the auction to comnce and they cannot spend it living and sleeping on the roads.
As they got into the next inn, they were surprised to find a crowd was ford inside.
Orochi approached a nearby person and asked,
Brother, whats happening and why is such a huge crowd gathered in the hall?
The person looked at Orochi and answered,
Hehe... it must be your first ti coming to this town and you must be here for the yearly auction held by the Golden Cloud Chamber of comrce, am I correct?
Orochi nodded.
That person continued,
You see that guy standing on the table, over there...
He pointed in one direction and Orochis eyes moved in the direction pointed by him.
Orochi saw a fat guy standing on the table.
The person continued,
That guy is a very famous person in this town and he is known for his shrewdness and money-making skills.
Everyone knows, that as the date of yearly auction held by the Golden Cloud Chamber of comrce was approaching, the inns will be filled with people and almost all the inns room will be booked. And the price of all rooms will be doubled in this period of ti.
So, this guy devised a plan to take this opportunity to make money.
2 days ago, he booked all the rooms in this inn for 3 days. And now he is auctioning the room keys to whoever bids high.
He has almost sold all the room keys; I would advise this brother to grab this opportunity and get yourself a room or else you will be sleeping in the open tonight, as there are only three rooms left
Hearing this, Orochi was not surprised as he has seen and heard many similar cases like this in the past. He asked the person,
Didnt the inn manager or staff take action against this guy for doing business in their own turf?
Hearing this that guy laughed and answered,
Hehe... the fat guys background is not simple. It seems that his sister is engaged to the young master of the Chan family.
