Chapter 20: Forget the Ancient Black Market(1/2)
When Zhao Yun woke up again, it was already bright, his head was buzzing, and he was swaying as if he had stepped on a sponge, unable to walk steadily.
When he regained consciousness, he looked at the Moon Goddess. The girl was leisurely, lying on the moon, holding her cheek with one hand, closing her eyes and concentrating.
"Is it really okay to be so naughty?"
Zhao Yun didn't say anything, but his expression clearly conveyed his words. His face was very dark.
Today, there are still many customers in the military store. Even without the 20% discount, there are still many people.
His arrival attracted the attention of the guests. It seems that since Zhao Yun became the shopkeeper of this weapons shop, the quality of his weapons has soared.
At this moment, looking at Zhao Yun's temperament and connotation, he is extremely restrained and does not look like a loser at first glance.
"Everyone, take your pick."
Zhao Yun smiled, but he still had to say something about the situation.
"Young Master Zhao, you are here."
Just as he stood firm, he saw someone running towards him. After a closer look, he saw that it was the bearded man from yesterday who had taken his knife and replaced it with the Zhao family's knife.
"Did you find the weapon?"
"Looking for a lot."
The big man pulled Zhao Yun and walked out.
No need for him to say anything, Zhao Yun also saw it. There was a carriage tied outside the military store. The carriage was full of weapons, swords, guns, swords and halberds, ranging from low-level to high-level. They were all his gains from this day.
It was delivered to Zhao Yun early in the morning.
"Is it enough?"
The bearded man rubbed his hands and smiled.
"not enough."
Zhao Yun said, and he picked up a silver note, which was the money to buy this cart of weapons. He could estimate it at a glance, and the amount of silver he gave was neither too much nor too little.
"The young master of the Zhao family is open-minded."
The big man smiled and accepted it hurriedly, without negotiating the price. He understood that people have a tacit understanding of a certain price, and it exceeded his expectations. After a rough calculation, he made a net profit of five taels, let's just say! Yes!
The way to get rich.
"I still don't know my brother's name."
Zhao Yun smiled and picked up the wine bottle.
"Reckless." The big man grinned.
"What a good name." Zhao Yun twitched the corner of his mouth.
"It's just a mark."
"In this way, keep looking for weapons. The more the better. The Zhao family's prices are always fair."
"Okay!"
Reckless waved his hands, jumped onto the carriage, then raised his whip and continued to purchase weapons.
Here, Yang Da and Wu Er have come out to help move the weapons. They are confused and wonder what the young master's use of buying so many low-level weapons is.
Afterwards, many more carriages came, each of them loaded with weapons, all for the Zhao family's army. They all knew it was profitable, and they were very efficient and motivated.
"It's interesting to buy weapons from a seller of weapons." The man on the street looked sideways, not knowing what the trick was.
Zhao Yun did not reject anyone who came.
The more ready-made weapons, the better. When he frees up time, he can temper and refine them one by one, and when he picks them up, they will all be top-grade weapons.
After putting away the weapon, Zhao Yun sat at the counter again, holding a ledger. He looked at it in a formal way, but in fact, he was privately comprehending the Wind God Step. His talent was extremely high, and he never forgot to comprehend it wherever he went.
"Did you hear that the lone wolf committed another crime last night? Liu's bank, Wang's pharmacy, and Zhao's pawnshop all lost their belongings."
"You just woke up? The news has already spread throughout the world."
"That guy is very brave."
There were a lot of guests, and there was a lot of discussion. After choosing weapons, they also gathered around and chatted. Occasionally, they would raise their eyes to look at Zhao Yun. The Zhao family pawnshop was opposite, but the guy seemed to be okay. After all,
It is the property of the Zhao family. After all, you were once the young master of the Zhao family!
I don’t know what their expressions would be like if they knew that the young master of the Zhao family was the “lone wolf walking at night”. They would be shocked.
"Keep an eye on the store, I'll go look around."
After the cutscene, Zhao Yun gave instructions and left the military store, found a small alley, covered himself with a black robe, and went straight to the black market in the south of the city.
Certain things need to be sold as stolen goods, such as house deeds and land deeds, and forgetting the ancient city's black market is the best option. Maybe you can even get some treasures back.
"The Zhao's pawnshop and Wang's drugstore were stolen. I understand that the Liu's bank was also stolen. That lone wolf walking at night is really capable. The bank is well-protected and has many agencies. How did that guy get in? How did he fly in?
"
"How about calling him a thief?"
"See, the reward for him has been increased to five thousand taels. Whoever catches him will get rich."
There was a lot of discussion at the tea stalls and wine shops, mostly about the lone wolf walking at night, and even the limelight of the Zhao family's military store was suppressed.
Zhao Yun said nothing and listened as he walked by, sometimes looking sideways at the walls of the same street.
Every time you pass a street, there must be a notice, plastered all over the Forgotten City. They are all wanted notices for the lone wolf walking at night, and the reward is extremely dazzling.
In addition, the streets are not peaceful. There are more police officers with knives, each with a bright eye, making a whooshing sound wherever he goes, and looking at everyone like a thief, questioning them all the way.
That's right, the three major families exerted pressure, and it didn't matter if they didn't take it seriously. The main reason was the pressure from the Liu family. Too much money was lost, and with the relationship between Tianzong, even the city lord was afraid of it.
At the end of the street, when passing by Wang's shop, Zhao Yun glanced casually. As he expected, the shop was temporarily closed, and most of the best medicinal materials and herbs had been swept away.
The same goes for the Liu family bank. After the closure, many martial arts masters were sent to inquire around. After losing so much money, Liu Cangkong was angered and issued a death order to capture the nocturnal lone wolf, regardless of life or death.
Zhao Yun sneered, this was just the beginning. Whether it was the Liu family or the Wang family, it would not be finished until they went bankrupt, especially the Liu family, who would definitely call him a dog and a dog, and what he wanted was the price of blood.
While talking, we have arrived at the black market in the south of the city.
The meaning of the so-called black market is not difficult to understand. It is a shady business. No matter what it is, you can get it and sell it as stolen goods. It's just that! The price will be cheaper than on the market.
Therefore, the black market is a mixed bag, with all major families and forces involved, including most of the city lords of Forgotten Ancient City.
But Zhao Yun knows that the people in this black market are not only those from Forgotten Ancient City, but also mostly from outside hidden families. Each of them has a profound background, and without any background, it is difficult to gain a foothold in the black market.
Because of this, anyone who cannot see the light of day will be like a stone sinking into the sea once they enter the black market.
Not to mention the big families, even the government couldn't find out about this kind of thing, and they didn't dare to check it out. After checking it, they found something huge, and it was definitely the kind that they couldn't afford to offend.
Zhao Yun walked along, looking left and right.
The black market is huge, occupying almost the entire south of the city. It is also home to shops and lofts. On both sides of the street, there are many stalls selling porcelain and gems, weapons and medicinal materials, secret books and antiques, and everything else.
Looking at the shop owners and stall owners, they are not ordinary people. An old man with yellow teeth may be a Xuanyang realm martial artist.
People cannot be judged by their appearance.
Here, you can get good confirmation.
"So depressing."
Zhao Yun murmured that it was not that he had never been to the black market before. When he came back this time, the feeling was still the same.
Since it cannot see the light.
It's a mixed bag.
Compared with the outside, there is an invisible evil spirit here. If anyone here is picked out at random, he may be a figure who licks blood at the tip of a knife.
"Xiu'er, do you have a baby?"
Zhao Yun called out to the Moon God.
The moon god ignored me, do you think the baby is just Chinese cabbage?
Zhao Yun coughed dryly and continued moving forward.
When I settled down again, I was already in front of a shop.
Full of wealth.
This is the name of this shop. It has a small appearance and is not very eye-catching, but the origin of this shop is very mysterious. He also heard what his father said. Even if the ancient city lord came here, he would not dare to make any mistakes.
Rich family.
After taking a look, Zhao Yun stepped in.
The shopkeeper of Caimanlou is an old man with gray hair and wearing coarse linen clothes. It is hard to tell whether he is kind or cryptic. When he came in, the old man was holding an ancient book and flipping through it. Every move he made showed his aura.
"Ksitigarbha Realm."
Moon God said lightly, meaning, be honest, don't look for trouble here.
"My first day out?"
As Zhao Yun spoke, he was already looking around the store. Most of the shelves were old, with a few iconic items on them, and they were still stained with dust.
To be continued...
