Reborn in another world, the boss loves me to the core
Chapter 324 Ghost Market
After she left, Ling came over.
"What to do with that girl in the hospital?"
"Hand it over to the Department of Public Security. You go to the General Administration Bureau and I'll root out whoever is behind it or what the forces are. Don't let people with ulterior motives spread this matter online to incite it. Just send a report after the incident is over."
"Yes, I will send someone to keep an eye on it."
"One more thing, you go and assist Huo Xia Zhang Yunzhou for two years."
Ling rarely responded immediately, but remained silent for a moment and said in a hesitant tone, "I want to stay by your side and serve you."
"Huo Ling, you have been by my side for so many years, but have you ever seen me change my mind?"
Why not? Every time I face the young lady, I always change it again and again.
Ling finished his habitual rant in his heart and then suddenly realized, eh, Huo Ling? !
He was so excited that he knelt down on one knee and said, "Thank you, Master, for giving me your surname!"
Huo Li glanced at him lightly and said in a cool tone, "Don't you know that I can sense what others are thinking?"
Especially when it comes to him.
Ling's body instantly became stiff, and his other knee also knelt on the ground without him noticing.
Huo Li looked down at him.
"You know the rules of the Huo family, and you also know my methods, so don't do anything to embarrass me!"
"Master, don't worry, Ling will never do anything to betray you!"
Huo Li twirled the black beads with his fingertips, "All forces in Yunzhou are intertwined. Drug smuggling, human trafficking, and organ trading are rampant outside the border and penetrate deeply. You only have two years to perfect Yunzhou's intelligence network."
"I see."
"Get up and get ready. Xiaosi will temporarily take over your affairs."
On the other side, Su Xian changed into a white cashmere coat with a fluffy fox fur collar on the big hat.
Wearing a beige turtleneck sweater, a beige knitted skirt, and a pair of lambskin short boots.
Pinned to the sweater is a hibiscus flower and diamond brooch.
There is makeup on her palm-sized face, with delicate eyebrows, snow-white skin, and flaming red lips. Her innocence reveals indescribable charm. Her eyes are flowing, sometimes like a little fairy who is inexperienced in the world, and sometimes as cunning as a child. Witch.
"Let's go out."
Huo Li glanced at her and said, "Wear too little. The temperature is low today, and it's going to be cold soon."
"I'm going shopping. I have to pay attention to my image as a big star."
Huo Li didn't answer her words at all, and didn't give her any room to bargain on these matters. He directly ordered Qiye to get her coat again.
Qiye didn't pick up the down jacket, but picked up a long black mink fur. The down was soft, the guard hairs were short and even, as shiny as silk, and the black color was noble and atmospheric, instantly filling her aura.
"It's not market opening time yet. Let's go after dinner."
"Why don't you go out to eat? I want to eat barbecue today. I'll treat you..."
After eating, it was getting dark. The car turned left and right into a dark alley. After driving for a few minutes, it drove directly into a car elevator.
Pull out a card covered in strange patterns, a bit like an ID card, or an invitation.
After swiping the sensor in the elevator, the elevator slowly descended.
"We're here." Huo Li gently called the sleeping girl.
Su Xian opened his eyes and saw a brightly lit street.
This street is so long that there is no end. There are countless lights on the top of the head, like the Milky Way at night. Both sides of the street are full of small stalls and vendors, and the shouts are endless, and it is very lively.
There are also various shops. Most of the shops have names like "Baoxuanzhai" and "Jiyage". You can tell at a glance that they are places selling antiques.
"What is this place?"
"This is the underground ghost market in the north of the city. It used to be an air-raid shelter, but it is now abandoned. It is connected to Kyoto's underground pipe network. Because the terrain is complicated and easy to hide, it has become a black market trading place over time." Huo Li held her hand and lowered his voice. said the voice.
"Is this kind of place allowed to exist in the capital?" Su Xian was surprised.
"There is always an invisible gray shadow between black and white, but several places connecting to the underground pipes have been completely sealed, and there is no way to break the waves here."
"But it's a mixed bag here, so follow me closely."
The ghost market has a long history. The market opens after the sun completely sets and closes after the rooster crows at dawn.
It is difficult to distinguish the authenticity of things in this ghost market, which is a great test of one's eyesight.
Huo Li was naturally not interested in the wild stalls outside. There were too few good things in such stalls, and most of them had unknown origins. Some of them even had a distinct earthy smell.
Not to mention making birthday gifts, I don’t even want to collect them.
However, Su Xian watched with gusto. She had never been to a place like this in her previous life. She just felt that everything was very novel. After a while, she broke away from his hand and looked at this stall and that stall.
"Girl, look at this jade pendant of mine. This is from the early years of the Great Xia Dynasty. It is made of top-quality mutton-fat jade. Look at this pattern, the lily and the nine-hole jade lotus root, which means that you and this young man are a perfect match..."
"Look, this piece of jade can also be worn separately from lily and lotus root, which is perfect as a token of love..."
Seeing that Su Xian looked like a raw melon and egg, she was dressed as richly and luxuriously, but she obviously didn't understand the rules. The person who brought her in didn't tell her about the secrets of this ghost market, so she just picked up a jade pendant and looked at it.
What a little fat sheep!
The stall owner was overjoyed and enthusiastically introduced the food, which was very exciting.
"Boss, this jade pendant is a match made in heaven. Wouldn't it mean that the two of you are separated? How can you give it away?" Su Xian said with a smile.
The boss was indeed a veteran, and his expression did not change. "Girl, don't think the opposite of everything. This lily with nine holes and jade lotus root has a very good meaning even if it is separated."
"Please see, this lily symbolizes a hundred years of good union, lasting forever, and everything goes well, and the nine-hole lotus root means three more and nine such, that is, long life, many blessings, many descendants, such as mountains, such as Fu, such as mausoleums, such as From the direction of the river, like the balance of the moon, like the rising of the sun, like the longevity of Nanshan Mountain, like the lushness of pines and cypresses, you and this young master can see this old jade pendant at a glance, which can be regarded as a marriage from heaven..."
Su Xian listened with great interest and saw that the stall owner was wearing a black stand-up collar, with gray hair and beard. He was in his sixties, but his face was red and full of energy. His eyes wandered around, looking at her like a fat sheep.
"Boss, how do you sell it?"
"...If you are interested, girl, I will only charge you 8.8 million for this piece of jade. You can't find anyone else in the ghost market for this price."
"Old man pays attention to fate when selling things. If it's fate but not destiny, I won't sell it even if I ask for 10 million. I also saw that this jade pendant is destined to you two, so I reluctantly parted ways with it. What do you two think? "
You really dare to speak!
"Well, there is a fate, 8.8 million fate." Su Xian laughed out loud.
Huo Li took the jade pendant, looked it over, and smiled softly: "This jade pendant is of average quality and material. Judging from the marks, it must have been carved not long ago. However, the carving technique is unique and interesting."
As he said that, he turned his head to look at the girl, "You like it?"
