Chapter 214: Blood Jade

Mo Xiaohe thought that the black market was traded in a place similar to a basement, and the people and sellers who came to trade should be hidden, but when she actually came here, it was very different from what she imagined.

The black market is a town, on the street, there are all kinds of shops, restaurants, inns, every street, basically a street market, there are also pork sellers, vegetable sellers, there are many men, women and children wearing masks on the street, according to Gu Zheng, most of the people with masks are buyers, in order to protect their own **.

"Husband, let's go to the black market and pay one or two silver, look at it, there are cabbage sellers over there, do you think someone will spend money to buy cabbage?"

Mo Xiaohe twitched the corner of her mouth, fortunately, the uncle who sold cabbage didn't cover his face with a mask, otherwise she would feel even more weird here. After only a moment's work, someone passed by one after another, and the uncle successfully sold two or three cabbages.

"You see, the people who buy the cabbage don't wear masks, they are the people on the black market."

The black market is the same as ordinary towns, the difference is that this is a three-regardless zone, there is no government, although it is so, it is controlled by the control from behind, if you make trouble in the black market, you may not be able to get out alive.

"Oh, I see, it's amazing."

Mo Xiaohe stood in place for a while, looking around, she quickly found a problem, although the market was noisy, but people bought things calmly, no one quarreled, the clothes worn by the people had no patches, they looked bright, they walked with a smile, nodded to each other and said hello, there seemed to be no trouble. On the contrary, these masked outsiders hide their heads and tails, shrink their hands and feet, and sneak around, just like thieves.

"That's because the black market is as rich as the country."

There are riches, treasures, and money that you can't imagine, and even compared to the treasury, the people living in the black market never bother with money. Hidden and shady trading is only one part of the black market.

"Then there will be any questions about joy, anger and sorrow?"

Mo Xiaohe always believes that 99% of people's troubles and happiness are rooted in the problem of money, perhaps, she is a layman. Never worry about money, peace of mind, but lose a lot of emotions that you should have.

Whether it is sorrow, greed, compassion, good or bad, they are all things that are born with it, and only by experiencing pain can she feel happiness when she is liberated, which is her own thought.

"Even if you don't worry about money, there will still be other troubles, and the black market has been around for a long time, and no one knows how long it has been."

Gu Zheng touched his mother's head, in fact, he also agreed, but in the black market, there is no war, no wife separation, no exploitation, there is nothing wrong, personal pursuits are different.

It's noon, Mo Xiaohe rubs his shriveled lower abdomen, the first thing to solve is to eat, only when he is full, can he continue to wander. Right now, she's interested in everything the black market has to offer.

I casually found a spacious and bright restaurant on the street, and the guy was warmly welcomed, and when he saw that the husband and wife were wearing masks, they took them directly to a separate private room on the second floor, and introduced the recipes neatly.

"Sauce-flavored beef?"

Mo Xiaohe swallowed his saliva, since the crossing, the number of times he has eaten beef is only a handful, whether it is Da Wu or Da Yue, cattle are used as the main productivity tools, and it is forbidden to slaughter cultivated cattle, otherwise they will be taken to the yamen to eat in prison.

The remnant cattle can only be slaughtered after being approved by the government, but there are too many big families in the city, and they are all staring, and finally the beef is divided into a piece and there is no left, I can't imagine that it can be eaten on the black market!

"Two catties of tendon cakes, a catty of sauce-flavored beef, and two of your specialties, a bowl of soup, a pot of wine, and a plate of peanuts."

Mo Xiaohe ordered food skillfully, and after the guy went out, she turned her head to look at Gu Zheng, her eyes were shining, she thought that she was just coming to visit, and one or two silver was too much of a loss, but now she feels that it is really worth it!

She didn't ask the guy why there was sauce-flavored beef, it would make it seem that she hadn't seen the world, anyway, if she asked her husband a question, Gu Zheng could always answer it.

"There are villages around that specialize in cattle breeding, and I heard that the owner behind the black market is quite fond of beef."

Gu Zheng poured a cup of tea for Mo Xiaohe, and a few dishes will be served in a unified manner, and the guy will not come in to disturb him again, at that time, he can take off his mask and eat, and he doesn't have to worry about being glimpsed.

It turns out that the owner behind the black market is also a foodie! Mo Xiaohe actually has the feeling of meeting a hometown and knowing his hometown, but this person is quite mysterious, some people say that he is an old man who wants to enter the earth in his seventies and eighties, some people say that he is a beautiful woman like a flower, and he swears that he has seen it, and the other party is a scholar.

"In the black market, unless you violate the taboo, I'm afraid you won't have the opportunity to meet real people."

When I saw him, I was afraid that he would be killed and killed, how could he have a chance to come out? Most of them are not credible.

The view on the second floor of the restaurant is good, through the white gauze curtain, you can see far away, just at noon, there are still a lot of people coming and going on the street, there are girls selling flowers with a smile in the corner, are soliciting business everywhere.

Occasionally, a woman passes by, picks a delicate flower, takes out a small bronze mirror from her sleeve pocket, strokes her cheek with her hand, looks at herself in the mirror, and is deeply intoxicated.

The restaurant served quickly, about a quarter of an hour later, the guy knocked on the door outside, after getting permission, began to serve, there are several layers of tendon cakes, take a bite, particularly strong, the sauce fragrant beef is cut into thin slices, in addition there is a meat and a vegetable, the meat dish is potato braised pork, and a garlic water spinach, plus a kelp shrimp skin soup.

"It tastes so good!"

Mo Xiaohe took a bite and praised again and again, he couldn't imagine that the chefs in the restaurant were so high, they were really a grade higher than those restaurant chefs on the street, so far, only the queen in the palace entertained the meal, which could be compared with this.

"Eat more, we can't take out the beef, this is the rule."

Eating is not allowed to be taken out, and the rest of the transaction can only be taken away late after registration, which is also the reason why beef is still not eaten outside.

"Can we come often?"

Mo Xiaohe blinked, such a good place, it is for the sauce and fragrant beef, there is a need to come again, as well as braised beef, beef soup, beef cubes, beef cubes, all kinds of delicacies, you can't eat it all at once.

"The black market starts four times a month."

Gu Zheng shook his head, it will take seven days to open again, the years in the black market are quiet, but it doesn't mean that it is absolutely safe, there will be a group of outlaws secretly, you don't know where they are, staring at those who are doing big deals, and after leaving, kill people and sell more goods.

The husband and wife chatted while eating, Mo Xiaohe listened very seriously, she had an upright temperament, and she was afraid that she would cause trouble and it would not end well, so she paid special attention.

There is a group of people in the black market, who specialize in buying and selling people, as long as you give enough silver, commonly known as killers, selling women and children, people usually come to the black market, just for the shady business.

"On the easternmost street, there is an antique street, which is managed by the black market."

There, you can find ancient paintings, porcelain, unique jewelry, priceless rare gemstones, and if you don't have what you want, as long as you can afford it, they can also find it for you.

"In other words, they are all ...... that are not coming from the right way"

To put it bluntly, relying on the pit to abduct and steal, after the treasure flows into the black market, the black market is sold to people in need, and huge profits are made from it.

"Then can you get some fakes, how can you be sure that there are no fakes on the black market?"

Not only can you buy here, but there are also things that are not clean, and they also buy them, so most of the people who sell things in the antique street are thieves with more skilled skills, and in Mo Xiaohe's mind, the shadow of the rabbit spirit instantly appeared.

"Fakes are taboo on the black market."

No matter what it is, from antiques worth tens of thousands of dollars to wooden hairpins worth a few pennies, there are never fakes in the black market, and if they are found, they have someone who specializes in identification, and it is not one.

"Sounds kind."

Mo Xiaohe rolled the beef in sauce with tendon cakes and handed it to Gu Zheng, don't look at the order of so many dishes, it is just enough to eat, the two of them are full of food and drink, and only the leftovers are cold.

asked for a basin of warm water with his buddy, Mo Xiaohe wiped Gu Zheng's hands with a muslin handkerchief, then smeared a layer of ointment, and tied the gauze again, the two discussed, since they came to see the world, they should first go to the antique street to have a look, and if there is something you like, buy it.

"However, the source is unknown."

Mo Xiaohe was in a cold sweat, she still had a little sense of the legal system, after buying it, wouldn't she be arrested by the yamen?

"Keep it as the bottom of the pressure box, keep it for the boss, the second, the third, the fourth, and the fifth, who can come to our house to raid the house?"

Gu Zheng's face was expressionless, his deep dark eyes and slightly raised corners of his mouth betrayed him.

"The eldest is the second, the third is the second...... Who are these people? ”

Mo Xiaohe didn't react, looked at Gu Zheng dumbfoundedly, and asked stupidly.

"Of course it's our children, if we give birth to children, we have to prepare a dowry, right? If we give birth to a daughter, we also have to prepare a dowry, and the girl will be more troublesome, and the dowry must be saved from a young age. ”

Gu Zheng stiffened his face, said seriously, and was funny in his heart, he just wanted to see his wife's reaction, not intentionally flirting.

Sure enough, as soon as the words came out, Mo Xiaohe's face turned red, between husband and wife, she was still a little shy when she asked this question, thinking of her mother's private letter, she told her that their child could not be born too early, "Husband, aren't you in a hurry?" ”

"Wait two years, wait until your bones grow."

After Gu Zheng finished speaking, his eyes stared at Mo Xiaohe's slender waist, his eyes were hot, this body was as if he couldn't feed him, for fear of hurting her, he was already quite restrained.

The topic was distorted, mentioning the problem of having a baby in the future, Mo Xiaohe gushed endlessly, maybe after getting married, motherhood was stimulated, she will be very happy when she sees the baby now, and always wants to come forward and tease.

"It's almost time, let's go out."

Gu Zheng put on a cloak to block Mo Xiaohe, and the husband and wife put on masks, and after going out to settle the bill, they went straight to the antique street. Antique street, worthy of the name is actually a street, each plaque, are made of good rosewood, hot gold plaque, high-end atmosphere on the grade, the more you go inside, the higher the price.

The first store, called Nishang Pavilion, was full of women's jewelry, and Mo Xiaohe felt that his eyes were not enough as soon as he walked in. What is gold, the real luxury is all kinds of natural gemstones.

"This little lady, do you want to see the blood jade? What we just received is absolutely rare in the world. ”

There were still a few people in the store, all of whom were alone, and when the guy saw Mo Xiaohe and Gu Zheng and his wife, he took the initiative to greet him and introduce them diligently.

"Blood Jade?"

Mo Xiaohe's complexion changed greatly, didn't he, it turned out to be blood jade?

Man, that's right, it's rare in the world, and many women regard being able to get blood jade as their greatest wish in their lives, but that person is definitely not her, she will only think that this thing is unlucky!

This dynasty did not have a snowy plateau similar to Tibet, and there was no pure natural blood jade, the so-called blood jade, which makes people feel a little scary, referring not to a single piece of jade, but to the jade that penetrates the blood.

The formation of blood jade, and the corpse is related, when the person is buried, as the jade of the jade, is forcibly stuffed into the population, if just died, when swallowed in one breath, it is stuffed, it will fall into the throat with the gas, enter the blood vessel sealed, and be placed for thousands of years, the blood thread goes straight to the heart of the jade, forming a gorgeous blood jade.

Although it is extremely precious, it was taken out of the corpse, and it is still the kind that lasts thousands of years, Mo Xiaohe covered her face, she really couldn't appreciate it!
