Evergreen Immortal

The moon hangs in Taung branch.

Big red lanterns hang high on the cornices, and the aroma of delicacies from the mountains and sea wafts out of the windows.

"Three of you, Zhao will propose a toast first."

At this time, Zhao Wei was so proud.

He raised his head and drained the cup of wine.

If you get a spot in the Huaqing Sect's entry competition, you will naturally have to have a good relationship with the three members of the Huaqing Sect.

If there wasn't a woman among them, he would have preferred to place the wine table in the Jiaofang Division.

There has always been a saying in the world.

That is, no matter how many things we do together, it is not as close as carrying a gun together.

Pity!

Han Qin chuckled. He was the most experienced among the three. He also raised his wine glass: "Congratulations, Vice Helmsman Zhao. Maybe we can meet in the sect next year."

When Zhao Wei heard this, he felt even better: "I'd like to lend you some good advice."

Pushing cups and changing cups several times.

The atmosphere gradually became warmer.

He was a man of martial arts background, and his drinking skills were excellent, but his skill in persuading people to drink was unparalleled in Qinghe.

Zhu Yue also drank a lot. As a member of the Zhu family, he naturally had to deal with the Heaven and Earth Alliance, so making friends with Zhao Wei was of great use to him.

Of course, it's not like he was too groveling and lost the Hua Qingzong's face.

Zhao Wei also knew that these Huaqing Sect disciples were noble, and sincerely looked down on them.

The word "brother" came to his lips and he swallowed it back.

He has long inquired about the Zhu family's genius. Since he is also from Qinghe, it is undoubtedly the best breakthrough to build a relationship:

"Young Master Zhu, I have some friendship with your father. I will visit you another day."

Zhu Yue was overjoyed: "Then I'll be waiting for Vice Helmsman Zhao to come."

At this time, Han Qin saw from the corner of his eye that Jiang Yan was a little impatient, and hurriedly got to the point: "Vice-ruler Zhao, since you are one of your own family from now on, I hope you will pay more attention to the Guiming Sect."

Zhao Wei patted his chest: "Leave this matter to me."

Han Qin and Zhu Yue were relieved when they saw that Zhao Wei didn't act coy.

However, they were not afraid that Zhao Wei would be perfunctory.

After all, the quota is in their hands, and the worst they can do is find someone else who obeys them.

until late at night.

The wine party just ended.

Zhao Wei finished eighteen large bowls in a row and was already very drunk. He was helped out of the restaurant by his subordinates, not forgetting to see off Hua Qingzong and the other three before leaving.

A young subordinate looked at Zhao Wei, who was almost drunk, and whispered: "It seems that the helmsman is really happy today. I have never seen the helmsman drunk before."

"Who said I was drunk?"

The young man turned his head.

He saw that Zhao Wei was already standing upright, with no trace of alcohol on his face.

Zhao Wei looked at the retreating figures of the Hua Qingzong trio and narrowed his eyes slightly:

"I'll just trust you for once. If you dare to play tricks, I'm not someone to be trifled with."

One day.

"You want to go to the black market with me?"

Li Rui was preparing to go to the black market on his first day out early in the morning.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw Liang He squatting on tiptoes by the threshold. When he asked, he found out that this kid also wanted to go to the black market.

Liang He's eyes were firm:

"The prime minister must be from the state headquarters, and the fierce generals must be from the army."

"I want to go to the market to hone myself. Hall Master, you can rest assured. I will go to the black market during the day to watch the market and come back to keep watch at night. I will not delay the affairs of the hall."

Born with the Holy Body of a Cow and a Horse?

Li Rui couldn't help but recall his hard life of working during the day and running takeout at night.

"It's up to you, but make sure you agree in advance that I won't pay you double wages."

"No money, no money."

Liang He waved his hands with a smile and trotted to keep up with Li Rui.

Li Rui is worried about not having a reliable confidant in the black market.

Liang He came to his door, so there was no reason not to use it.

Compared to those old fritters in the black market, Liang He is undoubtedly more trustworthy.

How can we get things done if we don't have many confidants?

Li Rui is familiar with the black market in Qinghe.

Most of the shanty towns in Dongcheng are the scope of black market business. They have been run by the Blood Tiger Gang before. I heard that it was the Blood Tiger Gang who heard about the breakthrough of the leader of the Tiandi Alliance, so they were willing to give up this piece of fat.

Of course, the Tiandi Alliance still paid a high price.

Li Rui took Liang He for a stroll on the street. When passers-by saw the two wearing uniforms of the Heaven and Earth Alliance, they all ran away in fear.

Soon, they saw the entrance to the black market.

And a strong man in black standing at the door with a fierce look.

Li Rui showed his waistband with the number "11" engraved on it. The attitudes of the strong men in black instantly became respectful. The leading disciple looked flattering: "It's Master Li. I'm the guard disciple of the black market. Commander Sun has been waiting for me for a long time." Waiting for you to come."

Mr. Li

Li Rui looked dazed for a moment. When he came last time, he only paid the market fee, but now he has become a grandfather.

"Lead the way."

Of course he wouldn't say stupid things like don't call me Master Li.

When looking at the black market, they are all ruthless characters. Blindly being friendly will only make people feel fooled, and it will take ten times more effort to correct them in the future.

Candy won't make someone obey, a whip will.

Li Rui naturally understands these principles.

The black market is also divided into pre-market and post-market.

Li Rui had only come to the front market before, and the products sold were common rice noodles and poultry, mostly by individual vendors.

The market outlook is different, almost all are shops and even high-rise buildings.

If you want to enter the market outlook, you have to pay an entry fee, and the price is not low, it requires a full copper coin.

Entering the afternoon, there were obviously fewer people on the street.

After walking for a while, Li Rui suddenly heard a woman crying from an alley near the entrance of Limu.

The woman's cry came from the depths of the alley, and the alley seemed to lead to a house in the deepest part of the black market.

The strong man in black turned his head and looked at the alley when he saw Li Rui.

Explained: "Master Li, there are rules in the black market to separate live goods and dead goods. This is where several stores store live goods."

Live goods

Li Rui withdrew his gaze without any pause in his steps.

Live goods is also a slang term in the world, which means people. To be precise, they are people who are treated as goods.

There are generally two ways for wealthy families in the city to take in their servants. One is to voluntarily sign a deed of sale like he did back then, and the other is to buy live goods.

Most of the live goods are pretty village girls or fair-skinned boys.

Just to satisfy the special hobbies of those masters.

This kind of scandal will always exist in any era, but it is hidden and ordinary people have no chance to come into contact with it.

Li Rui has no intention of saving the world, and he cannot save it with his current ability.

Black market butler.

To put it nicely, he is in charge of the black market, but in fact he is just a high-level wage earner working for the Tiandi Alliance.

These businessmen have already reached a certain tacit understanding with the Heaven and Earth Alliance. Anyone who breaks this tacit understanding will definitely suffer backlash.

"If you want to blame it, blame the world."

A quarter of an hour later.

He came to the deepest part of the black market, the tallest five-story building, which was also the tallest building in the entire black market.

Just walked to the door.

A fat man with a big belly and a face as round as a watermelon trotted out:

"Master Li, I finally got you."
