Chapter 67: The Purchase
He might hesitate before placing a bid, but once he did, Bok Taejin never showed any fear.
"It’s true I don’t have that much money on me right now, but my companions do. Just let me find them, and I guarantee I’ll get the money to you."
The person who had just bid two gold and eight silver was that old bachelor.
He raised his fist at Bok Taejin and shouted, "Kid, this ain’t how it’s done! Get lost before I beat the crap outta you!"
The old bachelor was already filled with regret. He’d finally gotten to the point of offering such a high price to buy the little girl, and now someone else had jumped in to mess things up—of course he was furious!
But Bok Taejin refused to back down even a single step.
One of the reasons he’d spoken up so quickly was precisely because of that old bachelor!
Just now, he had overheard some onlookers quietly gossiping.
Apparently, that old bachelor had a younger brother at home, also unmarried.
If the girl were really sold to him, she would end up being the wife of both brothers!
Even being the bride of a single old bachelor was something Bok Taejin couldn’t stomach—let alone two!
