Chapitre 162: Chapter 13. Treaty

— Five hundred thousand gold pieces.

This staggering figure simply shocked everyone present.

There was a deathly silence-no one even whispered it. Everyone was too shocked.

To spend that much money on one slave? Especially a defective one… No one could have guessed which nobleman of the empire was rich enough to afford such a purchase. At any rate, he was clearly an oddity.

The usual price of a slave did not exceed a few tens of thousands. No one in their right mind would pay half a million for some servant. Even a privileged one.

So the confusion among the usual visitors to the auction was understandable. Even the host dropped his jaw at such a bid.

It took him a few seconds before he came to his senses and shouted at the top of his voice:

— Five hundred thousand! No more bets!

But that's understandable. Hardly anyone else had brought that much money with them today.
