Chapter 266 Why are you here?



But the stalls were not working, as they completed the transaction in one go and did not accept delivery. Of course, the prices were much cheaper. Liu Jing bought a lot of things, and around 5:20, she had already returned to the inn with her things.

The proprietress was still standing at the door with great grace. After seeing Liu Jing, she said nothing and of course asked nothing. She just extended her hand and invited her in.

Liu Jing was holding something in one hand and nodded slightly to her before walking into her room. She had been thinking about how to deliver the things she bought to her. There wouldn't be a long queue soon, right?

But when she opened the door, she found that there were several large wooden boxes in the small room.

Has this been delivered?

Liu Jing recognized the huge medicine bottle on the ground at a glance. It was the one she bought. Perhaps because it was too big, it was placed alone on the ground.

Liu Jing quickly closed the door, put the things in her hands aside, ran to the boxes of the people, and checked the things she bought. She also found a list inside, which stated what she bought and how much money she owed.

She bought a total of 65 items and still owed a total of 4.27 million.

Liu Liang put the list aside and began to check what she had bought. She took out the painting by Gu Kaizhi from the wooden box. The feeling in her hand confirmed that it was the right one.

Only then did she remember the rumors about the Dark Street. The Dark Street, which had existed in the world for thousands of years, would naturally not do things like transplanting flowers and trees. If discovered, compensation would be a hundredfold.

Liu Liang sat on a wooden bed on the side, untied the red thread wrapped around it, and then opened the scroll. Although it looked a bit fake, it did not affect the exquisiteness and delicacy of the painting.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door, and Liu Jing threw the painting into her ring.

She opened the door and a long-haired man in black clothes walked out, also holding an abacus in his hand.

"I need the final payment. Did you get the list?"

The man in black asked Liu Liang.

"I received it." Liu Liang took out a list from the side.

"A total of four million two hundred and seventy thousand."

The man in black said.

"Wait."

Liu Liang turned around and walked into the bathroom, while the man in black was still standing at the door, his eyes unchanged.

When Liu Jing came out, she was holding a large snakeskin bag in her hand. She placed the bag in front of the man in black.

The man in black was still standing there expressionlessly. Liu Liang opened the snakeskin bag, then squatted down. After picking up the bag with one hand, he poured a pile of money onto the ground.

Here is 4.27 million. Who made him come so quickly and didn't give her any time to prepare? The only place here that was separated by a wall was the bathroom. Otherwise, where could she go to give him the money without anyone noticing?

"Please wait a moment."

The man in black stepped out, and then five people came in and started counting the money.

Liu Liang stood aside, watching them sorting the money in amazement. The speed was quite amazing. It felt like it was even faster than a sand testing machine.

In less than five minutes, those people had packed the money into a box and carried it away in front of Liu Liang.

The man in black nodded slightly to Liu Xian and said, "I hope to see you again next year."

"I hope so too." Liu Jing actually wanted to come next year, but as far as she knew, although it would not rain next year, a cable car would be installed in the mountains, so the Dark Street would be closed for a year. This was the first time since ancient times that the Dark Street had decided to close not because of rain.

So, there will be no chance next year, but as long as there is a chance in the future, she will definitely come again. Next time, she must bring enough money so that she can buy whatever she wants.

Liu Liang closed the door and walked to the boxes.

She placed her hand on the box...

When she came down from upstairs again, many people came out of the inn carrying boxes. All the boxes looked the same, and no one knew what was inside.

Of course, no one knew who they were. Those people carrying the boxes were all wearing loose cloaks and masks. It seemed that this was another way for the dark streets to protect the guests.

Whose box it is and what is bought in it are kept confidential by the guests at Dark Street.

Liu Liang took the key to the white magnolia from her wrist and placed it on the table.

The proprietress was still smiling, the wind blew up the corners of her clothes from time to time, her slender waist was also very charming.

Liu Liang suddenly thought of the proprietress of Longmen Inn, Jin Xiangyu, who should be like this.

She walked out, carrying only her small bag. When she came out, there were few people, but many boxes, all of which were carried one by one from the dark street to the door.

Liu Jingwei lowered her head and pushed her hair away from her eyes. Then she blended into the crowd and left the dark street smoothly. Although the things were all kept in her ring, it was much safer than these boxes. But she was still a little worried, so she walked very carefully along the way, and of course she walked along the small path.

She was not afraid of the night roads, people, or even poisonous insects or wild beasts.

She even found a deserted place, changed her clothes, put on a hat, and changed her backpack into a small shoulder bag before walking towards the hotel.

When she was about to enter the hotel, she remembered that she still had to make soup for Gao Ming, so she went directly to the vegetable market to buy some vegetables. The vegetable market would open at four or five o'clock, as she had come here before. She picked up a chicken, a fish and several other vegetables. She did not go back to the hotel, but went to the kitchen she had booked to make soup for a few old men.

When she was carrying the vegetables and happened to pass by the hotel entrance, she found that there were many strangers at the hotel entrance. They were staring at the exit of the hotel but did not go in.

Liu Liang pursed her red lips lightly and walked over. Of course, no one would pay attention to someone carrying vegetables in their hands.

"Why are you here?"

The voices she doesn't like have to ring in her ears, and the people she doesn't like to see have to be seen. Isn't this what it means that enemies often meet on a narrow road?

Liu Liang raised her face and met the disgust and dislike in Xu Jiajia's eyes, and she naturally felt the same.

"You're here, why can't I be here?"

Liu Liang walked past Xu Jiajia carrying the vegetables without staying there for long.

In her heart, a bowl of soup is much more expensive than Xu Jiajia, and she doesn't want to deal with Xu Jia.

"who is she?"

Ling Shiyang walked over and stood in front of Xu Jiajia. Of course, he could clearly feel that there was an irreconcilable change in the atmosphere between Xu Jiajia and that girl.
