Volume 1 Crossing the Rivers and Lakes and Involving Temples Chapter 96 Revisiting the Black Market
The so-called underground black market is a bazaar that cannot be put on the table, made up of street gangsters or vendors who hang on the fringes of Chinese law all day long, and wherever they move to, it is called the black market. For Chinese law, although the goods or materials sold by these merchants were obtained through unconventional means. But even if the government sends someone to arrest it, at most it will punish some silver taels, which is far from a serious crime.
The government of Annam Province has cleaned up all the black markets in the territory, but with little effect. Caught today, released tomorrow, these people will continue to do this business the day after tomorrow, the people take food as the sky, and the same is true for these small merchants and hawkers, just to beg for food and live a better life than ordinary people's homes. Therefore, the government simply let it develop, as long as it does not touch the bottom line of the Chinese law. Of course, if these black markets involve some crimes against the state, the inspectorate will investigate them thoroughly. In Qin Xiaoqin's words, catch hard goods through small fish and shrimp!
In the evening, Ye Chen took Wei to pretend to be a businessman from the north, and Yu Wei walked in front to play the role of the boss, and entered the entrance of the black market with a strong northern accent.
Ye Chen is not the first time to come, so he is quite familiar with the road, and the thugs patrolling around him never ask about people like him who look like regular customers, because in the evening, although the underground black market is not crowded, it can be regarded as lively.
After Wang Kaitai squatted for so long, he found a path from the inside of the black market to the back door of the residence of the king of Hades, Ye Chen followed Wang Kaitai's guidance, and saw that there was no one around, so he and Lu turned into the alley next to a shop selling antique jade. According to Wang Kaitai's description, the two walked half a mile ahead, and they could see a gantry, and after passing through the gantry, they saw the black-clothed guards in Wang Kaitai's mouth, these people were black-clothed guards guarding the back door of the Hades King's nest.
Ye Chen turned his head to Wei and said, "You can see the black-clothed guards in front of you, the six of them don't look like they're good at it." ”
Xiao slowly moved to Ye Chen's position, looked in the direction of Ye Chen's finger, turned his head and smiled: "It's okay, leave it to me." ”
Ye Chen whispered: "Six people, once the fight starts, there will definitely be a lot of movement, which is likely to attract more guards, and then we will be in trouble." ”
Wei stared at the six people in front of him tightly, and only after half a sound did he speak: "Wait for me here, and I'll be back in a while." ”
Ye Chen looked at the back of Wei leaving, he was at a loss, he didn't know what Wei was doing at this time, but after getting along for so long, he understood that Wei was not a person who opened his mouth. So he hid himself around the corner and didn't squeak, just quietly observed the movements of those people, ready to retreat at any time.
Ye Chen and Wei came in for only one purpose, that is, to see if they could find out what the relationship between Hades and Anritsu was. If it is really as Wang Kaitai guessed, then this Hades must be planning some earth-shattering conspiracy, otherwise it is impossible to lurk in Huaguoan South Dao for so long.
After a while, Wei quietly touched it from behind, and when he saw Ye Chen, he smiled and said, "This is for you." After speaking, he handed Ye Chen a four-link crossbow, Ye Chen looked at Wei in surprise, but Wei had a very natural expression.
Ye Chen clearly remembered that when he and Wei entered the underground black market, they didn't have anything on them, not even a short knife. Because a few thugs at the door searched their bodies very carefully, they almost took off their underwear and checked it.
Just when Ye Chen was puzzled, two more figures suddenly appeared behind the two. Wei didn't even look behind him, while Ye Chen was nervous, and immediately raised the four-repeater crossbow in his hand at the same time, he opened the safety of the repeater, and looked at the two black shadows nervously. Seeing this, he stretched out his hand and pressed Ye Chen's repeater and smiled: "My own people." ”
Ye Chen fixed his eyes and saw that it was the two of them, Xiao and Mei. He became more and more puzzled, and asked puzzledly, "When did you two come with you?" ”
Xiao explained: "Boss, when you told Wei yesterday that you were going to come here today, we came over and brought this. As he spoke, he raised the repeater and long knife in his hand and shook it.
Ye Chen: "You mean you two stayed here last night?" ”
Wei nodded and said, "Just in case, if something happens to you, the rewards for several of us at the end of the year will be ruined." ”
Ye Chen had a speechless expression: "Feelings, you still have the silver to take?" ”
"Yes, the madman said, if you are fine, Huangfu Leng will give each of us brothers a big surprise at the end of the year." Xiao laughed.
Mei Shen said in a deep voice: "It's a pity that Kui can't get it." ”
Hearing this, several people fell into deep thought, for those of them who have no home, they are not relatives but more like relatives.
Ye Chen saw that the atmosphere was too dull, so he spoke: "I will definitely help him get his share back from the black market Hades." ”
After speaking, he turned his head and looked at the six black-clothed guards, just at this time, several of them and several other black-clothed guards were preparing to change shifts. Ye Chen retracted his gaze and asked: "Xiao, I don't want the lives of these people, although it is a little riskier to do so, but we are also half of the government's people, and we can't just ignore people's lives." ”
Lu also understood what Ye Chen meant, and after following Ye Chen for so long, he also knew something about Ye Chen. So he glanced at the charm and the dragon behind him, and then buttoned the hat on his head with northern characteristics, and walked out slowly.
Seeing this, several black-clothed guards on the opposite side immediately became nervous one by one. One of them, a slightly taller black-clad guard, shouted angrily, "What man? ”
Wei was full of northern dialects, and heard the black-clothed guards in the rain, and then Wei gestured to the meaning of going to the toilet, and then the black-clothed person on the opposite side reacted, it turned out to be a master who wanted to go to the toilet, so he opened his mouth and scolded: "This is not the place where you came, the toilet is outside, leave quickly." After speaking, a few men in black also raised the long knives in their hands.
Seeing this, he was startled, and hurriedly retreated, and one accidentally fell to the ground, and said uncontrollably: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Then he slowly stepped back. At this moment, two silver tickets suddenly fell from Wei's body, and the denomination was not small.
Ye Chen couldn't help but want to laugh when he saw the appearance of the man, he usually didn't smile, but at this time, he actually acted with others.
When the black-clothed guards saw the silver tickets falling from the body, several of them looked at each other and immediately stepped forward to pick them up, but the person who took the lead was grabbed by the head of the man who jumped up from the ground and clasped under his armpit. said that it was too late, and the dragon and charm behind Ye Chen jumped out at once, and they found their opponents and beat them violently. Not to be outdone, Ye Chen rushed out and grabbed one of the arms and threw it directly over the shoulder, smashing the man to pieces.
In the blink of an eye, these people had all been put to the ground, and in order to prevent them from screaming, Wei and Mei knocked several of their black-clothed guards to the side one by one and hid them.
Looking at the skillful movements of several people, Ye Chen couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "You didn't do this before you came to Annan Province." ”
