Volume 1 Chapter 513 Kyoto Black Market: Black Lord
I sent the letter the next day and started preparing for recruiting for the small workshop.
"Ting Xiao, do you know where I can buy a second-hand sewing machine?"
When Gu Tingxiao heard her words, he knew that she was going to open a clothing store.
"I know. I'll take you there on the weekend."
Second-hand items can only be bought from people on the black market, and Gu Tingxiao knows where the black market is in Kyoto.
The black market is no longer as strictly controlled as before, and the government turns a blind eye to private transactions.
"good."
Sheng Wanyan's family of three returned to their courtyard in the city on Friday night, and Yi Yi took Mao Dou to explore the courtyard.
Sheng Wanyan was a little tired. After taking a shower, she lay on the bed and fell asleep unknowingly. Recently, she was under a lot of pressure from studying and often felt sleepy.
Gu Tingxiao carried Yi Yi in and saw that she was already asleep.
"Mom~"
"Shh! Mommy is tired."
She nodded, stretched out her chubby little hand to cover her mouth, looked at Gu Tingxiao with her watery eyes, and shook her head.
"One by one, don't quarrel."
Yi Yi said this in a very low voice, and Gu Tingxiao put her in the crib with a smile in his eyes.
Yi Yi was wearing milky white pajamas, lying on the bed holding her doll, staring at Gu Tingxiao with eyes as big as copper bells.
"sleep."
Yi Yi blinked and looked at Gu Tingxiao eagerly, with the same eyes that Sheng Wanyan used to look at him coquettishly.
"Sleep alone."
Gu Tingxiao knew what she wanted to do without her saying anything.
"Hmph~"
Yi Yi pouted her little mouth and turned her head away to ignore him. Dad was a bad guy who was stealing her mother.
Yi Yi was sulking and fell asleep while sulking, holding a bald little rabbit doll tightly in her hands.
The next day, the couple sent Maodou and Yiyi to the compound and went to the black market alone.
Gu Tingxiao was wearing casual clothes today. He took her to a yard and knocked on the door. Soon someone came out to open the door. It was a thin young man.
"Looking for Mr. Hei."
The thin young man heard it and took them in. As soon as they entered, Sheng Wanyan discovered that this yard was a second-hand goods market.
Second-hand radios, second-hand sewing machines, second-hand bicycles, second-hand watches, as well as some old items and jade jewelry. It can be said that there is everything here.
The young man took them to a small room at the innermost part of the yard. As soon as they entered, they saw a middle-aged man with a dark complexion and a slight limp.
The moment the middle-aged man saw that it was Gu Tingxiao, a hint of smile appeared on his originally serious expression.
Sheng Wanyan followed him in without saying a word, allowing Gu Tingxiao to negotiate.
"What a rare visitor."
Hei Ye looked at Gu Tingxiao, and Gu Tingxiao nodded expressionlessly.
"Is this your wife?"
Hei Ye looked at Sheng Wanyan with sharp eyes. Few people knew about his situation, and Sheng Wanyan's intrusion might not be a good thing for him.
"Um."
After hearing Gu Tingxiao's admission, Hei Ye looked at Sheng Wanyan with less vigilance.
"sit."
"Pour the tea."
Hei Ye instructed the young man beside him, who quickly poured two cups of tea and placed them in front of Sheng Wanyan and Gu Tingxiao.
Sheng Wanyan and Gu Tingxiao sat down. Neither of them spoke, but instead they drank tea leisurely.
"What do you want?"
Hei Ye twirled the jade ring on his thumb and looked at Gu Tingxiao.
"Ten second-hand sewing machines and five hanging fans."
Gu Tingxiao talked about his needs, and Hei Ye was so angry that he laughed. He had the nerve to say it out loud.
"Do you think this is a wholesale market?"
"Shall I go and grab it for you?"
Where could he find so many goods for him? He didn't even have the hanging fan, but he just asked for five of them.
"If you can grab it, I'll take it too."
Gu Tingxiao didn't give him the chance to refuse. Hei Ye was so angry that he laughed, but he couldn't get angry when he saw Sheng Wanyan there.
"There are a lot of new things out there."
“There are also foreign products.”
Hei Ye said this, Sheng Wanyan smiled when she heard it, then turned to look at Gu Tingxiao and said.
"I'm going to go out for a walk and buy some new toys for Yi Yi."
Gu Tingxiao held her hand tightly and gave her a few instructions before letting her go out for a walk.
"Introduce them to my younger brother and sister-in-law."
"Go get the latest music box that we imported from abroad and give it to my little niece as a gift."
Hei Ye kicked the young man next to him, and the young man quickly nodded and did as Hei Ye instructed, guiding Sheng Wanyan.
Hei Ye looked at Sheng Wanyan's leaving back without saying a word. After the door closed, he looked at Gu Tingxiao with sharp eyes.
Sheng Wanyan followed the young man out, and he gave her a brief introduction to the situation here.
"You can take your time to choose the things here. The stall over there has the latest foreign goods."
The young man pointed to a stall and Sheng Wanyan nodded.
"Take your time to look around. If you find something you like, we can go to the door to pay for it together."
"Okay, thank you."
"You are very kind."
The young man let her go shopping by herself, and then went to get the music box as Hei Ye instructed.
That music box is a rare item, from Country D. I heard it was played by noble ladies abroad.
That music box is very beautiful. There are different patterns on the blue surface. It can move by turning the button at the bottom.
Hei Ye only received one item and sent it away.
If I sell it, I can definitely get several hundred dollars.
Sheng Wanyan walked around slowly. She saw many watches with collectible value here, and none of them were damaged.
Sheng Wanyan picked out the three most valuable pieces and then went to the next stall.
Sheng Wanyan walked to the stall selling jade and gemstones, squatted down and looked carefully, although she was not an expert in this field.
But since I was a child, the elders around me all liked these things, and my own jewelry were all luxury goods.
The socialite's courses cover this aspect, and even if she is not an expert at it, she can still tell the difference between the real and the fake.
Sheng Wanyan's eyes lit up when she saw these. It turned out that most of the things here from Hei Ye were genuine. This Hei Ye was really capable.
But think about it, if he didn't have the ability, he wouldn't have been able to work in the black market in Kyoto for so long and remain safe and sound.
Sheng Wanyan really wanted to take them all away, but she didn't dare to, for fear that Mr. Hei would think her behavior was strange.
But even so, Sheng Wanyan did not hesitate and selected twenty or thirty of the most valuable pieces of jewelry.
Especially the pink bracelet and pearl necklace, which can be given to Yi Yi to wear in the future.
Sheng Wanyan had to admit that this was a good place, but it was a pity that she couldn't come here often.
Sheng Wanyan also took a fancy to the tape recorder. There were actually quite a few tapes here, including many songs from Meteor Garden and some old songs.
Sheng Wanyan was so excited when she saw this. She liked old songs very much. Old songs had much more charm and feeling than pop songs.
Sheng Wanyan selected some of her favorite tapes and played some music at home, feeling so comfortable.
