Chapter 2281 Hands in the Dark (I)
After Lu Xiaoxiao brought Liu Ermei into the black market, she noticed that there were many more people patrolling the black market than before.
Not only that, she also clearly felt that the atmosphere in the black market had become particularly tense. Whether it was people buying or selling things, they all looked cautious.
It seems that something must have happened in the black market recently that she didn't know about, otherwise it wouldn't have become like this.
She had to quickly accompany Liu Ermei to finish shopping, and then go find Chen Guang to ask him what had happened.
"Second sister, have you decided what to buy?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked Liu Ermei.
"I've thought about it."
"Then let's go buy some. I feel like something big is going to happen in the black market. Let's leave right after we finish buying."
"good."
Lu Xiaoxiao accompanied Liu Ermei in the black market for half an hour and finally helped Liu Ermei buy everything she wanted. Then she took Liu Ermei and walked quickly out of the black market.
After leaving the black market, she asked Liu Ermei, "Ermei, do you want to stay at my house for two days before going home?"
"No, I'm going home today. Yesterday I only told my mom that I would stay at your house for one night. If I don't go home today, she will be worried."
"Okay, I'll take you to lunch now, and then I'll take you to the bullock cart after lunch."
"It's not noon yet. It's too early to have lunch. Just take me to the bullock cart and I'll have lunch at home."
After hearing what Liu Ermei said, Lu Xiaoxiao did not agree immediately. Instead, she thought about it for a while, and then said to Liu Ermei: "It's okay to do as you say, but you have to go to the state-owned restaurant with me to buy some steamed buns first, or you can go to the ox cart after lunch."
"Go buy some steamed buns."
"good."
After Lu Xiaoxiao bought two steamed buns for Liu Ermei at the state-owned restaurant, she sent Liu Ermei to the ox cart, and then she quickly rushed to the black market.
After she entered the black market, she wandered around the market and finally found Manager Xie. Then she asked Manager Xie, "Manager Xie, what happened in the black market recently?"
"I'm not sure about this. Go ask Brother Guang."
"I can't get into the back hall, so I came to find you."
"I'll take you in."
"good."
When Lu Xiaoxiao entered the back hall, she clearly felt that the atmosphere in the back hall was even more tense and depressing than in the market. It seemed that something really big had happened this time.
"Master Xiao, why are you here?" Chen Guang had just finished discussing things with his men and was about to go out of the house to get some fresh air, but he didn't expect to see Lu Xiaoxiao walking towards him as soon as he came out of the house, so he asked Lu Xiaoxiao.
"It's not a good place to talk outside. Let's talk inside."
"good."
After Lu Xiaoxiao entered the room, she took a clean cup and poured herself a glass of water. Then she gulped down the water and asked Chen Guang, "What happened in the black market?"
"Nothing happened. Everything is fine."
"Do you think I'm a three-year-old child? I just walked around the black market and saw that the number of patrols was twice as many as usual. If something happened, would you have so many people patrolling?"
Chen Guang's eyes flickered after hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, then he showed his signature smile and said to Lu Xiaoxiao nonchalantly, "It's almost the New Year, I was afraid they would take advantage of the chaos to cause trouble, so I sent more people to patrol. I didn't expect you to misunderstand. It seems I have to withdraw some people."
