Chapter 24: The Black Market

Lu Li arrived at the city gate, the original guards at the city gate, there were less than ten people, but now they have almost doubled, probably because of Lu Li, so the Lu family increased the guards at the city gate.

By the way, Jianzhou City was not directly appointed by the empire to appoint the city lord, but was jointly governed by the three families of Lu, Jiang, and Xu, and the three families had been operating in Jianzhou for hundreds of years and were deeply rooted, and the empire simply let the three govern together.

Lu Li avoided the eyes of the guards, and also jumped up from the city wall and sneaked into the city.

I have to say that Jianzhou City is also a big city, although it is said that it is night, but the city is also brightly lit, and there are people coming and going on every street, and there is an endless stream.

The shops on both sides of the street are also open, receiving customers one after another.

There are also some vendors in the street, standing in front of their stalls, shouting to passers-by and telling customers how good their goods are.

The whole city seems to be bustling.

Lu Li was walking down the street, and he blended in with the crowd and walked along the street.

Immediately after, Lu Li walked in front of an alley, and then entered this alley.

This is an ordinary alley, dark and long, and Lu Li also walked to the end of the alley.

At the end of this alley there is a dilapidated yard, which looks like it has been uninhabited for a long, long time.

"Bang, Bang, Bang" Lu Li walked to the door of the courtyard and buckled the wooden door three times with the knocker on the wooden door.

After Lu Li finished detaining, there was a movement in the courtyard, and then a person seemed to come out of the house in the courtyard.

"Di Zhen Gaogang!" came a man's voice from behind the wooden door.

"The door faces the sea!" Lu Li also responded.

After Lu Li finished the code, the wooden door "clicked" and was opened.

"Welcome guests to the black market, please do you have the money ready. Behind the door was a man, as soon as he opened the door and saw Lu Li, he said to Lu Li with a smile.

"Ready, it's a hundred gold. Lu Li took out a small bag from his arms and threw it to the man.

"That's right, it's a hundred gold, please come in. The man opened the packet, checked the amount inside, accepted the money, and let Lu Li in.

This small cabin has a lot of secrets, this is the underground market of Jianzhou, called the black market, in this place, you can buy things that you can't buy outside, pills, yuanqi, yuandan, exercises, medicinal herbs, and even people.

As long as you have the money, you can buy what you want in this place, unless you want something outside the black market.

The entrance fee to this black market alone requires a hundred gold, ordinary Xuanji martial artists, the savings of the whole person are about a thousand gold, and there are some Huangji martial artists who can't even take out a hundred gold.

The money Lu Li took out was saved by Xu Yi over the years, that is, about five hundred gold, excluding the entrance fee of one hundred gold, and the remaining four hundred gold was used to buy pills to treat Xu Yi.

Although it is said that the health pill is a second-grade pill, and the minimum market price of the second-grade pill is generally more than five hundred gold, but the health pill only costs one or two hundred gold, because it does not want to be like other pills, one furnace and one pill, and the health pill can be more than one furnace.

Although it is a second-grade pill, it can only heal injuries, so the price is half cheaper than the general second-grade pill.

It is precisely because so many things are sold on the black market that this black market is also rich and flowing, and it is not that no one does not covet this black market.

Ten years ago, there was a half-step Earth Pole martial artist and several Xuanji high-level martial artists, because they coveted the wealth of the black market, and brazenly entered the black market.

But in the black market, there was an extremely strong man, who killed these people in a blink of an eye, and even the corpses were taken to feed the dogs.

This news shocked the entire Jianzhou at the beginning, and the appearance of the extremely strong also showed the strength of the black market, which was not weaker than the four major families at all.

This deterrence also discouraged those who coveted the black market, and at the same time, those who went to the black market also obediently obeyed the rules.

The business of the black market is so big, the three major families are naturally also greedy for the black market, and Jiang Zhen, the head of the Jiang family, also made a move, intending to get a piece of the pie, but he was seriously injured and returned.

Jiang Zhen also kept silent about the reason for this serious injury, which made people even more sure that the strength of the black market was strong.

Because of this incident, the three major families also felt the crisis, but a man who claimed to be the owner of the black market said that the black market did not participate in the power struggle in Jianzhou, but was just a businessman, which made the three families let down their guard.

But after this incident, the black market has also faintly become the fourth largest force in Jianzhou, standing side by side with the three major families.

Lu Li also followed the man through the small courtyard and into the house.

In the middle of the room, there was a table with several worn teacups on it.

Once inside, the man fumbled around the wall and then waved his hand.

I only heard a click, and I saw the wall next to the table shake, and a passage appeared in front of the two of them.

"Please, go down to the black market, I hope you have a good time, please remember, don't make trouble in the black market. The man said to Lu Li.

"I know, I still know the rules of the black market. Lu Li also answered the way, and walked into that passage alone.

The rule of the black market is not to pick quarrels and provoke trouble, otherwise, the black market will be severely punished.

This passage was going down, and after a few quarters of an hour, Lu Li walked out of the passage, only to see that his eyes suddenly opened up.

I saw that the lights were bright in front of me, and dense stalls appeared in front of Lu Li's eyes, this was the black market in Jianzhou City.

Why can't I find the place where the black market is located in the city, because the location of the black market is the underground of Jianzhou City, and most of them don't think that there is an underground city in Jianzhou.

The black market is also divided into pill area, weapon area, exercise area, etc., according to the place of trade, of course, the black market has the most things, is the attic in the middle of these areas.

This is where the black market is most prosperous, and where all the treasures of the black market are at a distance.

This attic has six floors, the first four floors are all places for selling and trading, the fifth floor is a place for auctioning items, and the sixth floor is not clear.

The reason why Lu Li knew about the black market was because when his father was still there, Lu Li had accompanied Lu Ming to the black market to trade, so Lu Li also knew the rules and location of the black market.

This attic also has a resounding name, Treasure Pavilion.

Lu Li also walked through the stalls and walked towards the Treasure Pavilion, the reason why Lu Li didn't stay at these stalls was because Lu Li didn't look down on the things sold in these stalls at all.

Although there are also good things in the stalls outside, the probability is also extremely low, just like finding a needle in the sea, so Lu Li does not consider these stalls.

Soon, Lu Li also walked in front of the Treasure Pavilion, Lu Li looked up, looked at the familiar door of the Treasure Pavilion, and sighed.

Everything here is the same as back then, but the person who came to this door was only himself, and Lu Ming was no longer by his side.

When Lu Li thought of this, he was also sad in his heart, and then he shook his head and walked into the door of the Treasure Pavilion.
