The Merman Clan only lived in the sea area to the east of Great Sheng Dynasty. Their lifespan was much longer than that of humans, so most of the Merman they captured looked very young. Only a few Merman would look old. The Merman were different from humans.

It was said that the merfolk had a cruel nature, and that fishermen in the East China Sea were often dragged from fishing boats into the sea. Soon after that, lifeless bodies would surface, and the merfolk would love to eat the human eye. There are many stories about the merfolk, and it is said that the merfolk make a kind of mackerel, and when it is put into water, they can breathe freely and do not wet their clothes. Some say that when the merfolk cry, tears turn into pearls, and that the fat of the merman, once burned, can be used to make eternal lamps that last for ten thousand years, and that makes it all the more difficult for the old merfolk to escape the fate of cooking. The Naga tribe had not only been captured in large numbers in the Great Wu, but had also been killed in large numbers. Although the number of Draconians killed by the humans had greatly decreased, as the capital of the Great Zhou Empire, the Sword Tomb still had many Draconians. These drakes were captured from all parts of the Great Zhou Dynasty and presented to the nobles of the Sword Tomb. Some became domestic slaves, while others sold themselves to the brothels for the entertainment of their guests. The Draconians in the Sword Tomb were not that precious, there were even many wealthy families that had their own reared Draconians to serve as slaves. In the eyes of the humans of the Great Yu Dynasty, the Draconians were nothing more than playthings, even animals. The drakes, on the other hand, were the drakes captured from the sea in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Both sexes were called drakes, and only one particular type of drake could be called a drake. First of all, the women must be beautiful females among the merfolk. They will be brutally split by the craftsman from the middle with a knife to form the so-called legs. It is very demanding on the craftsman to separate the bones of the fish from the tail at the same time of splitting the tail. The fish's tail was sewn together before it died, and when it was healed, the fish's tail, separated from the middle, could be used as a human's legs. This was the Lady of the Dragon. Although the process of making a Dragon Lady was extremely bloody, the aristocrats of the Great Zhou Dynasty were willing to do the same. Only a very few of them survived. I heard that even the current emperor only has two of them, and it is said that these two can only walk but not dance, and that these two have already become the two before the emperor can get his hands on them. His Majesty had always wanted to raise a few more women, but it had never been successful. The women were piled up on the corpses of countless of them, and very few of them could become dancers, because even if many of them survived and recovered from their injuries, they still couldn't walk, not to mention dance on their delicate legs. Thus, the price of the women was much higher than gold. Even in the entire Great Yu Dynasty, only two or three of them were known.

I am willing to pay ten taels of gold, look at this Female Mermaid's tail! A young man wearing blue silk clothes stood up. His appearance was extremely refined, and his blue silk clothes could barely support his skinny body. His name was Chen Xingyuan, and he was a Fifth Rank official in Great Sheng Dynasty. 10 gold taels was a huge sum of money. This Chen Xingya was willing to pay such a high price just for looking at the Female Mermaid's tail.

Another well-dressed youth also stood up. I'm willing to offer twenty taels of gold.

I am only not lacking in silver, I am willing to pay fifty taels of gold.

More than money? I am willing to offer ten thousand taels of gold to buy this Female Mermaid.

All sorts of voices sounded from below the stage, and Female Mermaid was still as before playing her enchanting dance on the stage. Her eyes were still as indifferent as water, as though she completely did not understand what the people below the stage were saying.

Yun Niang covered her face as she laughed and said, "Esteemed guests, the Silver Restaurant is a restaurant, not a brothel. Everyone laughed when they heard Yun Niang's words.

Chen Xingya, this Silver Restaurant is the Gold Sale Cave. Those 10 gold taels really aren't much.

Hahaha ?

Chen Xingyuan, even a hundred taels of gold wouldn't be enough to buy a woman's sleep here!

Facing the mockery of the crowd, Chen Xingyuan's face was slightly flushed. Today was also the first time he had come to the Silver Restaurant to eat wine. Previously, he had only heard that the Silver Restaurant was a place where money flowed like water. However, he did not know that this was a place where money flowed like water. This was a place where ordinary people could go bankrupt just by coming here. He wanted to see that the Merman's tail was not lecherous. He did not believe that there was a Merman that could walk on two legs, so he wanted to personally witness the wonders of creation in the world.

Just as everyone was laughing, a servant girl walked over to Yun Niang's side and whispered a few words into her ear. After dismissed the servant, Yun Niang shook her slender waist and walked up the stage. Yun Niang walked onto the stage, and the Female Mermaid immediately stopped dancing and stood respectfully beside Yun Niang, bowing her head. Yun Niang slowly looked at everyone, then her gaze landed on Female Mermaid as he took off her veil.

A trace of anger flashed past Female Mermaid's calm eyes, it was just that right now, her head was slightly lowered, and no one could see her anger. In just an instant, Female Mermaid quickly calmed the anger on her face, and in the moment when she raised her head, her face was calm and expressionless. Female Mermaid extended her left hand and removed the veil covering his face without any resistance. Female Mermaid's face didn't look like a woman's at all. Her skin was abnormally white, because her slightly drooping beautiful head and long eyelashes were like a waterfall that lightly covered her agile eyes. Her lips were like the standard cherry lips of the Central Plains.

Silence reigned below the stage. Everyone was stunned by the beauty of Female Mermaid. The middle-aged man wiped away the drool that was flowing from his mouth and fiercely bit down on the bear paw. It was as if he was kissing the Merman's lips on the stage. He had come to the Silver Restaurant to spend money on something that even the Imperial Palace would not be able to see.

Only after a long while did someone exclaim in admiration, "Beauty, what a beauty."

It was worth it to come to the Silver Restaurant today.

To be able to see such a beautiful woman, she must have been courting death under the influence of a peony flower. Even as a ghost, she would still act amicably!

Yun Niang glanced at Female Mermaid, and the Female Mermaid understood what she meant and retreated back down the stage. Yun Niang turned her head and said to the crowd: This tail is the same as a lady's legs, I can't casually let everyone see it. [If the lords are to sing and dance in admiration, the Silver Restaurant will always be full of guests. If they don't reward us with food ?] Yun Niang thanked everyone for their help in vacating the seats.

Yun Niang, I like your spicy power! Hahaha ?

Hahaha ? Yun Niang, the young ladies of your Silver Restaurant are unable to sleep.

Then let's invite all of you esteemed guests to have a good meal and continue enjoying yourselves! Yun Niang easily dispelled the tense atmosphere, and when no one was paying attention, she quietly retreated.
