Chapter Ten Three Persons and Five Surnames
Half an hour later, the mahogany door of the Red Mansion was pushed open again.
Shi Chen was almost helped out by Xu Qiusheng, and he kept wiping the red marks on his face with his sleeves, looking quite haggard.
Xu Qiusheng was quite aggrieved, "I don't understand. I, Xu Qiusheng, have pretty eyes and pretty eyebrows, and I'm charming. With such a big target, why don't any girls come to kiss me?"
Oil, it’s really shocking. Has the world’s aesthetics completely collapsed?”
"I think so too." Shi Chen sighed with a wry smile, "I have to say, women are really scary creatures."
"I also hope that women can become scary in front of me." Xu Qiusheng was obviously quite envious and jealous of Shi Chen's talent in attracting women.
"I think the way Sister Hong looks at you is scary. Are you sure you are not his biological son?" Shi Chen thought that the previous meeting with Sister Hong could be described as smooth sailing.
And throughout the whole process, the charming woman never left Xu Qiusheng's eyes. It seemed that she still had some resentment?
"You are her fucking son!" Xu Qiusheng shuddered immediately and quickly changed the topic and asked: "Next, are you going to the black market? Do you want me to send you there?"
"I just have to go by myself and get rid of this thing. Otherwise, I won't be able to satisfy the prodigal bitch at home. I'll go to your place to straighten things out first. I don't have the shame to show off to others like this."
"You don't have to be cheap and good. If you go like this now, you will definitely make those hungry bachelors think about it. Maybe your name Shi Chen will become famous on the black market."
Shi Chen punched Xu Qiusheng in the chest angrily, almost losing his breath.
Just as they stopped a taxi and left, on the top floor of the Red Building, Sister Hong was watching their leaving figures.
A girl about seventy-six centimeters like Sister Hong, wearing a white lace dress and a princess hat, came to stand next to Sister Hong with a glass of milk. Looking at Sister Hong's slightly lost face, she asked with a smile: "What's wrong? Which one do you like?"
Already?"
Sister Hong trembled when she heard this. She looked at the girl who suddenly appeared next to her, with complicated eyes, and said respectfully: "Miss, you are joking."
When the girl heard this title, she pulled off the princess hat on her head. Her doll-like face showed a trace of disgust, and said: "Don't forget your identity just when you see the son of your old lover. You know, we are in the dark night of the Federation."
Eyes, if you let Father know that your eyes have been stained, humph."
"That's what Miss is teaching you." Sister Hong was slightly embarrassed, showing doubts, "I just don't know why you didn't stop me, Miss."
The girl frowned slightly, but seemed to have some questions when she asked: "The one named Shi Chen is not bad. Check his background. If he is still clean and not from the Shi family, we can consider absorbing him. Maybe in the future."
It’s of great use.”
Sister Hong's expression suddenly became extremely strange, but she didn't dare to ask anything.
The girl was silent for a long time. When she was about to leave, she suddenly stopped, hid her face under the shadow of the brim of her hat, turned around and asked, "Is there any news about that woman?"
"Not yet." Sister Hong lowered her head slightly and whispered: "However, she seems to have lost her trace over there."
"Is this so?" The girl's brows showed seriousness, and she murmured: "If this continues, I'm afraid someone from the three powerful families will come..."
"How is that possible!" Sister Hong's eyes widened in shock at these words, and she wondered what identity that woman was that could attract such attention from the big shots at the top of the federal pyramid.
"If it's just a woman who is willing to use all her strength to conceive an evil child, maybe it's not enough. What about adding a newly discovered apostle's remains?"
"Another apostle!" Sister Hong was shocked by the bombshell messages one after another, and her mouth went dry.
The Apostle was the pinnacle weapon of the former Blackthorn Dynasty, and was almost invincible in land battles.
They suddenly appeared on the battlefield during the First Galaxy War, announcing their arrival by sweeping across the battlefield.
There are rumors that the former emperor found it in the unknowable legacy of the void. The turning point of the battlefield situation and the emperor's evaporation are also related to this.
The Federation's mechas are modeled after the apostles, but because they are mechanical mechanisms, due to core issues such as material strength and energy conversion, the mechas have great limitations in terms of size and power compared to the apostles.
But in front of the real apostle, the mecha is just a toy played by children.
"We should have known this first. What's ridiculous is that this news was leaked from the empire's smuggling line to the capital star circle. What's even more ridiculous is that we still haven't obtained the address of the remains."
The girl laughed at herself and left the rooftop, just thinking in her heart that no matter who comes this time, as long as it is not from that family, no one from that family is a normal person. If they come to a remote place like Junlin, I am afraid that the entire Titan
The stars will be turned upside down by this.
After taking a bath in the backstage bathhouse of Xuji Noodle House and eating a bowl of Zhenjiang beef noodles, Shi Chen regained some energy.
After solving the work problem, I have to go to the black market in person.
Without telling him, he took an old windbreaker, said goodbye to Xu Qiusheng, and set off on the road to the black market.
It's not just a place where people are doing business in the dark, it's called a black market. A place where people are doing business is called a market.
But there are always some things that are prohibited by official law, such as contraband, drugs, ordnance, female slaves, etc.
Where there is demand, there will be buying and selling, and wherever there are people, there will be transactions, and the black market is just such a place where goods gather and the good and the good are mixed.
The black market is only compared to the normal and legal trading areas. They will also put some legal products on the market. Most of these places have some relatively hard backends and involve the interests of many parties. Therefore, the federal police report every time
The inspection is just a formality.
The Taile Underground Mall in District 13 is such a place.
Here, most of the people are still uninformed people buying and selling daily necessities.
But if you pay close attention, you will see many guys with obviously different temperaments using some messy code words to do shameful things.
Or some gangsters hiding in the shadows of the crowd, searching for targets with sinister eyes looking for opportunities to make money.
They usually act as guides for people who trade here and charge low commissions. However, if they realize that their employer is not so sophisticated, or if they see that the scope of the transaction items obviously exceeds their psychological expectations, then they will also choose to act as a guide.
Thieves and robbers.
The spacious underground shopping mall is filled with the smell of tobacco, and red-faced people fighting over bargains can be seen everywhere, making it look a bit smoky.
Although it was not the first time for Shi Chen to come here, he was still slightly nervous.
After all, although the thing he wanted to sell this time was not a rare item, it was also valuable and could easily be coveted.
But even so, he still refused Xu Qiusheng's company.
After all, the woman in his family was still a wanted criminal by the federation, and he didn't want to implicate his brother too much because of that woman's affairs.
Also because of the two incidents involving Liya and Xiaochu, he realized that he would become a frequent visitor to the black market. If he didn't get familiar with this place as soon as possible, how could he complete his next life plan.
Shi Chen adjusted his collar, covering most of his face, and then stepped into the hall.
Just as he entered the mall, he noticed at least a dozen eyes falling on him.
There is nothing that can be done about it. First of all, he is too young, and his face and temperament are too eye-catching. He is like a bright light in the dark night, and it is difficult to avoid being noticed.
But Shi Chen behaved like the most experienced con man along the way. His eyes exposed outside his collar glanced back and forth at all the valuable items, and then he used code words to go up to talk to the shopkeeper to bargain, pretending that the price had been broken down and shaking his head.
He left his head and walked slowly towards the depths of the shopping mall according to the route given by Xu Qiusheng.
At this time, the more nervous you appear, the easier it is to become a target.
Finally, he came to an antique store.
This antique store is very small, and the antique store itself looks a bit unusual in the entire mall.
"This is it, Lao Sa Antique Shop." Shi Chen breathed a sigh of relief. The owner of this store, Lao Sa, was a familiar acquaintance of Xu Qiusheng and was considered reliable in the entire Taile Mall.
Lao Sa is not old. At first glance, she looks to be in her thirties at most. She has a square face, but she wears a pair of round reading glasses. I don’t know if she is weak in some aspects. Her temples are slightly white, and she is a little bit unknown.
The meaning of old age.
At this moment, Lao Sa was holding a copy of "Silver Ping Mei" in the classical Chinese style of Earth Age gold-bound 8k copperplate printing. He was reading it with gusto, completely forgetting himself.
