Chapter 228 Black Market
The further you go in, the less wind and sand there are.
Every time you walk a distance, you will find how big the gap is between cities. The distant city is simply a purgatory on earth, while the golden city is magnificent.
Qing Cheng said: "Originally, the imperial city was planned to be located in Yuancheng, but it was abandoned due to its remote location."
"It seems that selling gold and diamonds does make money." Jiusu looked at the shops around Yuancheng and nodded. It was indeed prosperous.
They found an inn and took only a few soldiers with them, while the others stayed in the suburbs, waiting for orders.
Qingcheng continued to eat according to the diet and also started to exercise, such as taking walks and doing exercises. One day, she was finally able to step on the scale. She closed her eyes and stepped on the scale.
It was a little difficult to breathe.
"Mi'er, how is it?"
Mi Er said excitedly: "Miss, five pounds! You lost five pounds!"
"Ahhhhh!" Qingcheng cried excitedly.
boom!
Shi Shuang quickly pushed the door open, looked at the master and servant hugging each other and crying, frowned and asked: "What's wrong, what happened?"
"No..." Qingcheng slowed down, wiped away her tears, and said embarrassedly, "Princess, I'm really sorry, I just lost five kilograms compared to before, and I'm a little happy."
Shi Shuang chuckled: "Very good, keep it up, you are one step closer to success."
Night slowly fell, and it was not as dark as I had imagined.
Lights were on all around, and after asking around I found out that this was the only city where people could move around at night without a curfew, and that was because Jincheng had a night market.
The lights were just coming on and men and women were strolling outside.
People who enter the night market are not ordinary people. There are two rules. One is that they must wear masks and their identities cannot be inquired in the night market; the other is that once the transaction is concluded, no refunds or exchanges will be given.
Shi Shuang chose a white fox mask to match her clothes.
Qingcheng likes the color cyan and chose a pure cyan mask.
The colors of the two people match.
She whispered, "Sister Shuang, be careful. The people inside will kill if they say so."
I saw someone coming out to greet me.
The woman in red looked the two up and down, smiled coldly and asked, "Are you two new here? You need a gold medal to enter our night market."
Shi Shuang asked, "We just arrived, can we get a gold medal?"
"This way." The woman in red led the two to the next room. She picked up the book on the table. The ink on the front had dried up, and it seemed that no one had won a new gold medal for a long time.
"Your name, what family did you come from, and what do you do here?"
Qingcheng spoke first: "Qingcheng, the daughter of General Qing, comes to sell things in exchange for food."
As he spoke, he took out the token of Qing Mansion.
The red-dressed woman paused, and she wrote the words 'Qingcheng' on a piece of paper, and handed it to the person behind her. She said, "It will cost thirty taels of silver to get a gold medal."
Qingcheng looked at Shishuang.
Shi Shuang nodded and took out some money from her purse.
The woman in red glanced at the people around Qingcheng several times. The person wearing the white mask seemed to be more powerful. General Qing's daughter had to look at her no matter what she did.
"You won't do it?"
Shi Shuang shook her head, "Not yet."
The bell at the back rang, and the woman in red took out a gold medal engraved with a number, "My name is Hongtong. All people wearing red clothes are called this name. If you have any problems, just come to us. This is your gold medal, please keep it."
Hongtong took them to the private room on the second floor.
"Due to your distinguished status, this is a special passage opened specially for you two."
The whole audience was in an uproar. Another private room was opened. It had been a year since the last one.
Suddenly, the lights in the box next to us came on.
The red eyes flickered. It was really interesting. It seemed like they had an appointment today. More and more people came. She served cakes and tea, and then left respectfully.
She was going to inform the mayor.
"If you have something to auction, you can give it to Hongtong and we will put it up."
Shi Shuang nodded: "Thank you."
She drew the curtain and took out the calligraphy and painting from the space. Qingcheng was surprised when she took it. It seemed to be... a painting by Fairy Chen. She knew it very well and explained it to Hongtong for a long time.
Hong Tong held the painting in both hands solemnly, "Don't worry, we will check it immediately. If it is real, how do you plan to auction it?"
Shi Shuang thought for a moment and said, "This one can produce fifty shi of grain."
"Okay." Hong Tong was surprised that they didn't want silver but wanted food. But she had seen all kinds of people here. After all, there was a channel for exchanging silver for food. "I'll arrange it for you right away."
While waiting, Shi Shuang watched the auction.
There is nothing she wants.
A stick of incense later, Chen Xianzi's painting was brought up. The masked hostess could not hide her excitement. Shi Shuang called her the auction host.
The host raised her hand and as the painting unfolded, she said, "Can you believe it? We have Fairy Chen's authentic work here! Huang Tong, bring it up!"
The painting is unfolded.
Everyone was shocked. Even those who did not like painting felt shocked. As long as the painting of mountains and flowing water was hung up, one could feel the painting flowing.
Shi Shuang asked: "Is it so magical?"
Qingcheng nodded. She stared at the clouds and mist on the painting and said, "Fairy Chen is the most famous calligrapher in Fengguo, and she is also a woman. This painting was created ten years ago. It was bought by a very rich person at that time. No one knew where it was lost, but now it has been found."
"I see..." Shi Shuang searched the space and found several paintings by Fairy Chen. She took them all out and said, "Pick a few that you like and continue to auction the rest."
Qingcheng only chose a picture of the sun and the moon.
She handed the other three paintings to Hongtong behind the door curtain.
Hong Tong was shocked. How many treasures did this girl have? She didn't dare to delay and took the things for appraisal. During this time, the landscape paintings on the field had been auctioned off.
In the end, seventy stone of grain was sold.
The black market will charge a portion of the fee.
Even the host was stunned. She asked in a low voice: "Why are there so many paintings by Fairy Chen? Are they real or fake? Could they be fresh paintings by Fairy Chen?"
Hong Tong explained: "There are dates on them. Don't worry, they have been authenticated and are genuine."
Afterwards, the host excitedly showed the paintings to everyone.
At this time, the highest-level city owner also knew about this matter. He was wearing a black suit, a tall hat on his head, and his face was covered with gauze.
"What? He actually took out four authentic paintings of Fairy Chen at once?"
Hong Tong said respectfully, "Yes, and the two girls don't want silver or treasures in exchange, they just want food."
The mayor smiled and said, "Interesting, are they still here now?"
"Yes." Hongtong nodded.
The mayor raised his lips and looked at the dazzling array of treasures around him. "Interesting, really interesting, but those four paintings cannot compare to my treasures. Come with me to have a look."
All three paintings were photographed by the people next door.
Hong Tong brought the receipt for exchanging food: "Please keep it. Also, the boss next door wants to see you two. Do you want to see him?"
