"Listen carefully," the officer continued to shout, "this guy is the general's son. Anyone who wants to buy it, come and see it."

When the onlookers saw that he was half dead, they immediately lost interest.

"This person is almost dead, what's the point of buying him?"

"Yes, even if it can be cured, I'm afraid it will cost a lot of money."

"Looking at him like this, even if he is cured, he will probably be useless." Someone said, "Who would spend money to buy a useless person?"

"Sir, how much silver do you want to sell this kid for?"

"Not much," the officer said with a smile, "only 500 taels, and you can take the man away."

"Five hundred taels? Are you kidding me, sir? You might as well buy 500 cows instead of spending five hundred taels on a piece of junk!"

"You can't say that," the official said, "This is the original son of General Yuan. If we buy him back and use him as a servant, it will surely be better than herding cattle!"

"Ha ha……"

Everyone laughed, but no one wanted to buy it.

500 taels of silver is a huge sum of money even for the wealthy families in Gaochuan County. No one would spend so much money on a dying person.

Even though the people couldn't be sold, the officers were not in a hurry and kept joking with the onlookers.

The last officer said, "Everyone, this man will be selling here for three days. Go back and think carefully. If you want to buy, just come. The earlier you come, the more breath he will have left. If you come too late, I'm afraid he will only have his last breath left."

"Let's go, no one wants this person anymore."

Amid the discussions, everyone slowly left.

After everyone had left, Jiang Sining stepped forward.

"Brother, I have a question for you."

An officer turned around and saw that it was a little girl. He waved his hand at her impatiently and said, "Go away, this is not a place for you to come."

"Why can't I come?" Jiang Sining asked, "You guys are selling people here, and I'm buying people, isn't that okay?"

Several officers turned around at the same time and looked at Jiang Sining as if he were a monster.

One of them asked, "You want to buy someone too?"

"Yes, I wonder if there are any other people," Jiang Sining said, "male."

"Haha..." The officers laughed, "Why would a little girl like you buy a man? Don't you have any shame?"

"Don't ask me what I'm going to buy it for," Jiang Sining said, "Just tell me whether I have it or not."

"This is the only one left." The officer said, "The rest of the men were sent to Yelang to die."

Jiang Sining secretly cursed his bad luck.

I finally figured out a way to get out of the marriage arranged by the Jiang family, but in the end, only this villain was left.

This is a big villain, a cruel and brutal villain who kills people like crazy!

If she buys this guy, she will be in trouble all day.

But there was no other choice at the moment, so I had to grit my teeth and decide to ask the price first.

"Brother officer, does this person have to be sold for 500 taels of silver? Can it be cheaper?"

“How can it be cheap?”

"Little girl, you'd better leave quickly," said an officer, "even if you have 500 taels of silver, I won't sell this man to you."

Jiang Sining blinked. What does it mean that he won’t sell it even if he has money?

The officials' reaction just now was the same, as if they had no intention of letting this person make the deal. Considering Si Chenan's identity, Jiang Sining might have understood.

These people deliberately set the price so high to prevent anyone from buying Si Chenan so that they can continue to torture and humiliate him.

Although the original novel did not say who eventually bought Si Chenan or what happened to him afterwards, he was definitely sold, so if she wanted to get him, she had to act quickly.

"Brother officer," Jiang Sining then said, "this man is already dead."

"Huh? Dead?"

"Yes!"

Jiang Sining stepped forward, touched Si Chenan's nose with his hand, and then used a silver needle to prick two acupoints on his neck twice, which could make Si Chenan stop breathing temporarily.

"Look, he's out of breath!"

An officer immediately stepped forward to check and was shocked.

"Are you really out of breath?"

"Hurry, hurry, find a doctor!"

"This man can die anywhere, but he must not die in our hands!"

"Brother officer," Jiang Sining said, "it's too slow to call a doctor. How about letting me try?"

"Can you heal?"

"I learned a little from my grandfather," Jiang Sining said, "but I can't guarantee that it will work."

"Then what are you still standing there for?" The officer was desperate at this point, so he said, "Come and try, it's not your fault whether you can save her or not."

Jiang Sining immediately stepped forward and pinched Si Chenan's philtrum, pinched his nose, and pulled his ears. The officer was so amazed by her technique that his eyes widened.

What is this technique?

Not to mention that Si Chenan is worthy of being the son of a great general. He is quite handsome, with a good figure and skin.

If this happened in modern times, he would definitely be a handsome boy.

After fiddling with it for a while, the effects of the two injections had worn off and Si Chenan resumed breathing.

Seeing that the man was rescued, several officers breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

"Brother officer," Jiang Sining asked, "Look, this man is almost dead. Can you sell him to me at a lower price?"

"You..." the leading officer said, "Little girl, you know that the man is going to die, why did you buy him?"

"Buy it back and get married!"

"Get...get married?"

"Yes!" Jiang Sining said, "My family wants to arrange a marriage for me, but I don't want to get married yet, so I want to buy someone to marry, so that I don't have to get married."

"The ones who are half dead and only have a few breaths left are the best."

"Once we get married and he dies, I can help him stay a widow and he won't have to get married."

"That's what they call... the best of both worlds!"

Officers: ...

"Little girl, you are so young and smart." An official said with a smile, "But this man is not cheap. Do you have money?"

"I have it! When my mother passed away, she left me thirty taels of silver!" Jiang Sining said, "If it's not enough, I can go and borrow some from someone!"

Officers: ...

In all their years of traveling around Da Xia, they had never met such a courageous little girl.

Not to mention buying a man for yourself to get married, you want to buy Si Chenan for thirty taels?

"It's not up to us to decide whether this person can be sold to you."

"I know." Jiang Sining said, "But please help me, brother officer. I will definitely thank you all handsomely later."

As she spoke, she took out two taels of silver and stuffed it into the hand of an official: "This is a small gift. Please have some tea, brothers."

Seeing how understanding she was, the officers looked at each other and nodded slightly.

"Okay, then we'll ask for you. Come back tomorrow."

"Thank you, officer."

Jiang Sining said this and turned to leave.

She has tried her best.

As for whether she could buy this villain, to be honest, she had no idea.

But you must prepare the money, just in case you can buy it?
