Chapter 67 A trip to the black market

When he passed through an alley again, Zhao Xinyu saw acres of rice fields, which made Zhao Xinyu couldn't help but ask, "Brother, where are you taking me?"

The boss laughed and said, "Don't worry, little brother, I'm just responsible for running errands. No one will force you to do anything here. If you like something good, you only need to pay a little shipping fee, and we can help you transport it to your designated location." The place."

After hearing what the boss said, Zhao Xinyu understood in his mind where he was about to go. It should be a black market that never saw the sun.

Although he rarely goes out, his grandfather taught him a lot of things back then, and he also learned a lot after going to college.

The black market has black market rules and a certain background. In the black market, you only need to have money, and there will be no such thing as gangsters taking advantage of gangsters.

Knowing that the place he was about to go was a black market, Zhao Xinyu felt much calmer. He stopped talking and followed the boss with his head down, but he peeked around from time to time.

There is a closed door on the back wall of a row of tall houses. The door looks very ordinary. In such a hot and humid place, it is a bit unusual for the door to be closed.

The boss walked to the door and knocked on the door rhythmically a few times. Then the door opened, and a stern-looking man looked at Zhao Xinyu who was following behind the boss.

The boss nodded to the strong man and said, "Little brother, just go inside and choose your items. Tie Dan can help you transport them to where you want. Next time you come over, if you still want to come over, just go to the stall and find me."

There is a compartment inside the door, but after entering the compartment, Zhao Xinyu has vaguely heard the noisy voices. When he exited the compartment, Zhao Xinyu saw that it was at least a hundred meters long, completely enclosed and invisible. A confined space with a hint of sunlight.

The huge incandescent lamps in this space illuminated the space as bright as day. There were at least hundreds of people walking around in front of the stalls arranged in the space, choosing what seemed to be objects.

"Little brother, see what you like. If the item is too big, let the stall owner write it down and we will settle the bill together then," said the big man who came in with Zhao Xinyu.

Zhao Xinyu nodded. He entered this space with his backpack and walked through a few stalls. Zhao Xinyu was surprised. He heard customers and stall owners discussing prices. A seemingly inconspicuous small item was Tens of thousands, 10,000+, or even millions.

Zhao Xinyu didn't know anything about antiques, and he didn't bother to look. He went directly to look for ancient book stalls. There were indeed good things in such places, but such places were not very safe.

When Zhao Xinyu passed an antique stall again, his body froze slightly. He saw a small box three feet square on the stall.

The outside of the small box is already mottled, and the yellowed underlying paint inside has been exposed in several areas. If you get closer, there is a faint scent of sandalwood.

There is an ancient keyhole on the box, and a plum blossom is carved under the keyhole. Although the plum blossoms are mottled, it can be vaguely recognized. There are nine plum blossoms on it.

This box is a medicine box used by Chinese medicine practitioners in the past, but most Chinese medicine practitioners today would not recognize it. However, in the glorious days of ancient Chinese medicine, medicine boxes used by Chinese medicine practitioners were strictly graded.

Most traveling doctors also have medicine boxes in their hands, but there is nothing carved on their medicine boxes. If plum blossoms appear on the medicine boxes, it means that this Chinese medicine practitioner has already achieved a certain status in the world of Chinese medicine.

The original level of Chinese medicine was based on the plum blossoms on the medicine box. The lowest level was one, and the highest level medicine box would have nine plum blossoms on it.

There are very few Chinese medicine practitioners who can reach the level of nine plum blossoms. At the same time, even if they grow old, their descendants will not be qualified to use the medicine boxes they hold unless their Chinese medicine skills can also reach the level of nine plum blossoms.

This kind of medicine box is different from the medicine boxes used in medicine today. Each medicine box has its own unique character. There is usually a mezzanine inside the medicine box, which is dedicated to placing some precious traditional Chinese medicine classics or medicines.

So after Zhao Xinyu saw the medicine box, he couldn't help but take a few more glances. This made the stall owner immediately realize something. He stood up and looked at Zhao Xinyu, "Little brother, are you interested in something? I haven't opened the store yet today. Look. If you go, it will be cheaper for you."

Zhao Xinyu smiled faintly. He squatted down and picked up an incense burner with green rust on it that was placed next to the box.

"What is the price of this incense burner?"

"Little brother, I can tell you are someone who knows the goods. This is an incense burner from the Zhengde period, priced at [-] yuan."

Zhao Xinyu nodded and his eyes fell on the box, "Boss, this box is quite special. There are some good things in it."

The boss's eyes flickered a few times, "This box is nothing, but this box is made of sandalwood. You should know that sandalwood is the gold in wood. This box is hundreds of years old at least, and this sandalwood is more valuable."

Zhao Xinyu put down the incense burner, picked up the box, shook it a few times, and his heart moved slightly. He could feel that there seemed to be something inside the box. He opened the box casually, but it was empty. However, Zhao Xinyu went to his forehead and saw that there was something inside and outside the box. A little different. "My friend just wanted to get some sandalwood bracelets. How much does this box cost? If the price is right, I will buy the incense burner together."

The boss's eyes flickered for a few times. His eyes fell on Zhao Xinyu, but he found that Zhao Xinyu's eyes were fixed on the incense burner again. ,
"Thirty-six thousand for the incense burner. If you want it, give me a total of fifty thousand with this sandalwood box."

Zhao Xinyu shook his head and glanced at the stall for a few times. Then his eyes lit up. He saw something that looked like amber. What was wrapped inside was not insects, but strange-looking seeds. And that amber-like thing was of great significance. There are a few cracks in the things.

"Well, give me [-] yuan and this broken amber handle, and I'll see if I can find someone to repair it when I go back."

"Okay, look, little brother is a cheerful person. Do you want to take it away or send it out together later?"

Zhao Xinyu laughed and said, "It's nothing like this. I can just take it with me in my equipment bag. I can save the time and return it later."

After paying and leaving, Zhao Xinyu continued to look along the stalls to see if there was anything interesting to see. Because of what happened just now, he also specially focused on the antique stalls.

Not to mention, this black market has everything you need. As long as you can think of it, you can see it on this black market. Zhao Xinyu also harvested six unique ancient medical books, which made Zhao Xinyu very excited. The purpose of his trip It is an ancient medical book. Not only is it an ancient medical book, but it is also a medicine box that only the top Chinese medicine practitioners can carry.

With a full harvest, Zhao Xinyu glanced at the stall in front of him and saw that it was only a few dozen meters away from the end. He did not leave in a hurry, but continued to search for treasures at the stall. He even had an idea in his mind, that it would be fine in the future. Qian went to Pengcheng's black market to have a look.

Suddenly, Zhao Xinyu's eyes narrowed. He saw a stall selling antiques. There was a tree that looked like a potted plant on the stall.

The tree is only fifty or sixty centimeters tall. The dark brown trunk is like a thousand-year-old tree with deep cracks on it, and the branches are as vigorous and coiled as a horned dragon.

, there are no leaves but there is a faint fragrance of tea, the roots without soil are blood red, and the faint juice seeping out of them is as meaningful as blood, which makes Zhao Xinyu's heart skip a beat.

"Boss, what is this?"

The boss was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, "I don't know about this either. This seems to be a tea tree, but I don't dare to say what it is specifically. If you like it, let Baqian take it away."

"How long has this been going on? I can't survive."

"I dare not say this. My friend got this thing. He said that the soil under this small tree is blood red. I was also curious and bought it. If you really want to give me five thousand, I also spent five thousand to get it from him."

Zhao Xinyu smiled faintly, lifted the small tree, transferred five thousand to the boss, and then walked to the next stall with the small tree.

But at this moment, there was a dull sound, and a big hole appeared in the wall not far away. Figures filed in from the big hole. In an instant, the whole space became a mess, and people moved towards Zhao Xinyu. Running wildly.

Zhao Xinyu's heart sank. He was surrounded by people and headed in one direction. Looking at the panicked people, he also understood that something bad was going on.

Suddenly all the lights in the space went out, and the entire space instantly became pitch black. Zhao Xinyu's heart moved, and the small tree in his hand and the backpack on his body were all sent into the space by him.

As a cool breeze blew, he saw a bright color, and panicked people rushed out of the space from a small door. The next moment Zhao Xinyu rushed out, he felt something being grabbed next door, and he also I didn't have time to look, so I rushed out with the crowd.

After running a few steps, he found a big bag hanging on his arm. He didn't know what was in the big bag, but it was quite heavy anyway.

Zhao Xinyu did not throw away the big bag, but directly threw the big bag into the space, and then followed the others and rushed to the rice field not far away.

Just as they arrived at the edge of the rice field, a loud shout came, and people in uniforms blocked their way. Who could care about this at this time? They didn't care about anything at all and kept rushing forward.

Zhao Xinyu threw away the two policemen. The next moment he stepped into the rice field, a figure threw him to the ground, followed by a faint fragrance.

Without thinking, he moved his body and pressed the other person under him. Then Zhao Xinyu's face showed a trace of astonishment. He saw that the person under him was a delicate beauty with an appearance no less than that of Du Mengnan.

At this time, he didn't care too much. As soon as he pressed the woman, he instantly felt a soft feeling and a painful groan came. Zhao Xinyu had already stood up and bent down and submerged into the rice field.
