Chapter 52 Black Market (2)

When Xie Jiuxiao saw her smile, her nose was not her nose and her face was not her face, so she got angry: "You..."

He was so embarrassed that he wanted to leave again, but was blocked by Lu Chengfeng, who comforted him: "Okay, I won't laugh... Are you still angry with me?"

Xie Jiuxiao said with an aggrieved expression: "You won't let me go...you didn't reply to the letterhead that June brought, not even once! You just don't want to bother me and leave! I don't bother you! I don't have that much to talk about Cheng Yi Gentle!"

Hearing this child's angry words, Lu Chengfeng couldn't help laughing again, and hurriedly said: "My fault, my fault, that's all, you can come when you want."

Xie Jiuxiao looked at her resentfully, bent to death.

Lu Chengfeng was inexplicably more and more happy. She suppressed a smile and said, "If it's true, I can come anytime."

Xie Jiuxiao's face turned bright when he heard this sentence, and he couldn't help it for a while, and said uncomfortably: "You deserve this."

"I should."

As soon as the two turned out of the alley, they ran into Tan Chengyi who had just caught up, he was quite surprised: "Thank you, Second Young Master?"

Xie Jiuxiao laughed, and said flatly, "Mr. Tan."

Then he turned his head and said with a smile, "Sister, let's go."

Tan Chengyi felt inexplicable hostility and didn't care, the three of them walked together, Tan Chengyi said: "Further ahead is the place where criminal slaves are traded."

The three of them walked forward. Everyone in this black market was full of strange things, but the two men on the left and the right were all very outstanding. They couldn't help but people looked at them frequently. Lu Chengfeng stopped after walking a few steps. , handed the mask over, and said, "Put it on."

His appearance is really too ostentatious, don't be looked at by others before he arrives at the place.

Xie Jiuxiao put on the mask with a smile, and the three of them moved forward, and soon arrived at their destination.

This is a wooden platform with a circle of people around it, and five people are tied to the front and back of the platform, both male and female.

Tan Chengyi said: "I think this is the person who will sell tonight."

Tan Chengyi is obviously not the first time here, Lu Chengfeng said: "Just buy and sell the government and don't care?"

"It doesn't matter, Xiaoyao City is strange in this place. Once a dead person is buried in the ground, the government will not ask."

Lu Chengfeng stopped talking.

Xie Jiuxiao leaned closer and whispered, "I'm afraid there are people in the court."

His voice was kept low, and Cheng Yi couldn't hear the chaotic conversations around, Lu Chengfeng said: "I think the official position is not low, not only that, I'm afraid I have a good relationship with people from the Ministry of Punishment or the Metropolitan Procuratorate of Dali Temple."

Xie Jiuxiao snorted and said, "This should have nothing to do with the Ministry of Punishment."

Lu Chengfeng nodded, but he thought to himself, if a certain minister is really involved behind Xiaoyao City, what is the purpose of this person?Silver or something else?If it's money, it's fine, if it has a plan...

Xie Jiuxiao said again: "It's weird here."

"Huh? Where's the weirdness?"

Maybe it was not time yet, and there was no one else on the stage except those five people. Xie Jiuxiao sized up the people on the stage and said, "According to what Tan Chengyi said, even killing people and violating the laws of the Yasukuni can be ruled out without permission." Erase the sound, the people behind this are not simple, he is in charge of such a big market, let these people come and go, they are all weird people in the market, they come from all corners of the country, the news must be very well-informed, and they are searching for secrets from all over the world... This good."

This guess coincides with Lu Chengfeng's idea.

Lu Chengfeng raised his eyebrows lightly, and said, "We'll talk about this later."

There was silence between the two for a while, and Xie Jiuxiao suddenly called out, "Sister."

Lu Chengfeng turned his side slightly to show that he was listening.

"I went to the exchange shop and redeemed Tan Chengyi's golden lock."

Lu Chengfeng turned his head and said in surprise, "You locked it with ransom money?"

Xie Jiuxiao nodded bravely, and said, "We don't want his things, you return him! I'll order someone to give you a bigger golden lock, or give you something else...he's full of bad things!"

Lu Chengfeng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, she accepted the golden lock not only for Hu Rong's sake, but also because she wanted to test Tan Chengyi. Find out its purpose.

"You're just fooling around!"

Lu Chengfeng couldn't help scolding him in a low voice, but he said so, but his face was not angry. Xie Jiuxiao was used to seeing her face, and he became happier: "You agree?"

Lu Chengfeng glanced at him and said nothing.

Xie Jiuxiao knew that she had compromised, and smiled lazily, and said, "I'll send it to you tomorrow...ah no, I'll just order someone to deliver it to Tan's house."

Lu Chengfeng said helplessly, "It's up to you."

While the two were talking, a tall, thin, middle-aged man came up with someone on the stage. He glanced around and said loudly, "Please join me! All the goods of Qianmian Pavilion are here today. Everyone knows the rules. The one with the highest price will get it, wait for a while, and I will introduce you one by one.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd was agitated. Some people wanted to push forward, and some people got stepped on while pushing and swearing.

"Ge Laozi's! What kind of bastard doesn't have eyes!"

"Squeeze what! Squeeze forward? Can you afford the price later?"

"I'm happy to squeeze you into meatloaf!"

"You son of a bitch has the guts to fight!"

"Come out, you bastard!"

"There is a kind of you to come in!"

Unknowingly, someone started yelling and cursing across the crowd, Lu Chengfeng was pushed to the side, and after retreating, he was pushed to the edge of the corner, she didn't care, but Xie Jiuxiao was pushed along with her, He looked a little happy, Lu Chengfeng laughed and said, "What? Haven't you been squeezed out?"

Xie Jiuxiao glanced at Tan Chengyi who was squeezed far away, and said, "I am naturally happy to be far away from him."

The middle-aged man on the stage was introducing the ins and outs of the five people one by one.

Lu Chengfeng raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why do you hate him so much?"

Xie Jiuxiao leaned aside and said, "I don't need a reason to hate him."

Lu Chengfeng smiled and said: "A famous official in Western Jin, do you hate him for no reason? This person has a delicate heart, and his conversation and knowledge are extraordinary. In the future, he will definitely be an important minister in the court. It will be beneficial and harmless for the Xie family if you make friends with him .”

Xie Jiuxiao doesn't know.

His eyelashes trembled imperceptibly, his eyes were a little suspicious, and he asked unconsciously, "...you really... like this kind of thing?"

Lu Chengfeng looked at the stage with his hands behind his back: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Xie Jiuxiao persisted and said: "Why are you just talking nonsense? You... don't you want to talk about family and marriage? You have had a lot of contacts with him in this period of time..."

Lu Chengfeng listened to his unrestrained imagination with a dull face, she was totally wrong!She took back what she said before, the arrogant and unruly son of a family No. 1 is just a cloud in the sky, what is this kid thinking in his head all day long!
Lu Chengfeng didn't reply to his words, Xie Jiuxiao was silent for a while, and said, "...Sister."

There was a bit of unreasonable sadness in his tone, Lu Chengfeng sighed, he really couldn't help it.

She said, "I won't like it."

Xie Jiuxiao asked: "Why? Don't you say that he has a bright future?"

Lu Chengfeng glanced sideways: "Why do you have so many questions?"

"...Do you think I'm annoying?"

Lu Chengfeng was speechless for a while, then resigned himself to his fate: "No. I don't like talking about Cheng Yi. The reason is simple. I don't like frail scholars."

Xie Jiuxiao endured it, and said again: "...But isn't Xue Feng the same?"

Lu Chengfeng frowned: "That's different."

"What's the difference?"

This is really picking up an ancestor by my side.

Lu Chengfeng sighed, wanted to fool him but was afraid that he would keep asking questions, so he thought for a moment and said, "It's different, Xue Feng was engaged to me, and the Xue family had promised that I wouldn't move to Xue Feng after we got married. Yanjing, otherwise I would nod my head in agreement."

Xie Jiuxiao blinked: "You nodded only because Xue Feng was engaged to you and promised to settle in Subei?"

Lu Chengfeng said: "Otherwise?"

Xie Jiuxiao's eyes lit up: "Didn't you kiss him because you like him?"

This... Lu Chengfeng hesitated for a moment, and said, "I've never met him before, so why do I like him?"

Xie Jiuxiao couldn't help but said: "This Xue Feng is so good that he can make you fall in love at first sight?"

The price hikes on the stage reached a feverish level. Lu Chengfeng wanted to wait and see, but was so entangled that he had no choice but to tell the truth: "He can ride a horse and bow and arrow, and he told me he can cook."

Xie Jiuxiao's face darkened: "That's it?"

Lu Chengfeng said helplessly: "I had a lot of business at the time, so I couldn't be a virtuous wife in the inner house, but he was willing. There are few people in this world who can stand behind a woman. Besides, he has a good family background, good looks, and a good temper. Why should I pick three?" Pick four."

Xie Jiuxiao: "..."

He didn't know whether to be thankful or not, Lu Chengfeng didn't seem to care about the relationship between men and women at all, she always seemed to have this kind of thing in her eyes, even when she agreed to the Xue family's marriage, she was so casual .

Xue Fengzhan's favorable conditions are so absurd yet so reasonable.

yes!That's right... She is indeed not one of those inner house girls, she is very famous in Subei, she is not on military or official business all day long, how can she wash her hands for soup.

Who would want to stand behind a woman?
Will he?

Xie Jiuxiao asked himself, and the next moment he answered himself.

He seems willing.

he will.

Xie Jiuxiao was overwhelmed by his two wishes in a row, and was speechless for a while.
