"Well! Mr. Long Yi, get in my car." Ye Qingxue invited with a smile.
Long Yi nodded, and the two paid the bill and left the cafe.
Outside the cafe, there was a light blue Maserati Quattroporte parked.
Ye Qingxue specially opened the car door for Long Yi before sitting in the driver's seat.
For a moment, many men in the cafe dropped their eyes to the ground.
After Long Yi got in the car, Ye Qingxue said, "Several other family heads from the capital will be there today."
“The competition will be fierce tonight.”
Long Yi smiled and said, "I thought the jade was already in your shop."
Ye Qingxue shook her head and chuckled, "No, we're going to the ghost market in the capital tonight. The ghost market usually doesn't officially start until after ten o'clock."
"My shopkeeper just saw that good thing and told me to participate in the internal trade fair in the evening."
Long Yi nodded and said, "I thought your Ye family was so wealthy that you would just buy that thing."
Ye Qingxue smiled faintly and said, "Mr. Long, in a place like the capital, a single brick thrown down would hit several multi-millionaires. There are always people who are better than you, and there are always better things."
"My Ye family may seem like a first-rate family, but in the capital, where hidden dragons and crouching tigers are everywhere, there are countless people who are stronger than us."
Long Yi said in surprise: "No way? Aren't there only the Jiang family, the Ye family, and the Xu family in Beijing?"
"Hehe...what can our families count for? They are just glamorous on the surface. The truly powerful families all have cultivators."
"Take Mr. Long Xuan, who is known to the Patriarch of the Jiang Family, for example. If Mr. Long Xuan spreads the word that he wants to destroy our Ye Family, someone will take the initiative to attack our Ye Family."
Ye Qingxue sighed again as she spoke, "Actually, I really want to make friends with Mr. Long Xuan, but unfortunately, he's so mysterious that I still can't get his contact information."
What Ye Qingxue said was the truth. Their Ye family was now supported by only one warrior at the peak of the Earth Realm.
If that Long Xuan supported the Jiang family in attacking the Ye family, the Ye family would not be able to withstand it. However, she did not know that the Mr. Long Xuan, whom she had always wanted to make friends with, was sitting in the passenger seat at this moment.
Long Yi had no intention of revealing his identity and just casually agreed with a few words.
"By the way, Mr. Long Yi, you went there with the Jiang family. Have you met Long Xuan?" Ye Qingxue suddenly thought of something and looked at Long Yi with her beautiful eyes.
Long Yi coughed lightly. Long Xuan was very mysterious and had only come into contact with the head of the Jiang family.
Ye Qingxue had no choice but to nod, and soon the car drove to the suburbs of Beijing.
This place is very secluded and there are usually few cars coming here.
Not far away is a market that looks abandoned. The entrance to the market is very dilapidated, but there are many people setting up stalls inside.
There are no street lights here, only stall owners using flashlights to illuminate their stalls.
The dots of light connected together into one piece, and at a glance there seemed to be thousands of stall owners.
This was Long Yi's first time to visit the ghost market in Beijing, and everything he saw was strange. In the parking lot, there were luxury cars worth tens of millions, as well as old electric cars that had been thrown into scrap collection stations but no one wanted to buy them.
At this moment, Long Yi glanced at Ye Qingxue and felt a little surprised.
Her eyes were fixed on Ye Qingxue's chest.
Under the night sky, the jade Buddha statue on Ye Qingxue's chest emitted a faint halo.
"Mr. Long?" Ye Qingxue turned her head and met Long Yi's gaze, her pretty face slightly red.
Then she realized that Mr. Long was probably looking at the Buddha statue on her chest, so she smiled and said, "This Buddha statue was bought for me by a close friend from abroad. It has the effect of warding off evil spirits, and it works better at night than during the day."
"That's right."
Long Yi nodded. He didn't notice the special feature of this Buddha statue last time. It turned out that it was only useful at night.
The two walked forward, and Long Yi took a casual look. There were all kinds of things displayed on each stall, including old radios, pipes, snuff bottles, and even a bronze tripod that looked like it was dug out from a construction site last week.
These things are almost all fakes.
The people who come here are a mixed bunch, including experts and amateurs. There are also many buyers who have bought fakes and are completely kept in the dark. They hold the antiques they bought last week and smile happily, thinking they have got a great bargain.
"Mr. Long, the internal trading meeting of the Ghost Market will take some time. We can go shopping first. If you like anything, tell me and I will pay for it." Ye Qingxue said with a smile.
Long Yi smiled and nodded. At this time, he stopped and stood in front of a simple stall.
There were already several customers standing by the stall, selecting antiques.
Long Yi squeezed into the crowd and glanced at the dozen or so muddy antiques displayed on the street stalls.
There are ceramic statues, ancient coins, jade wine glasses, old bracelets, and yellowed calligraphy and paintings, all displayed in a dazzling array.
But with just a quick glance, Long Yi discovered that almost all of them were fakes, with only a ceramic Buddha statue being real.
"Ms. Ye, which one do you think is real?" Long Yi turned around and looked at Ye Qingxue.
Ye Qingxue looked at the antiques on the stall and frowned slightly. Long Yi could clearly see the disappointment in Ye Qingxue's eyes. She didn't find anything good.
"Hey, this thing is good."
At this time, Ye Qingxue squatted down and picked up a ceramic Buddha statue that looked a little faded.
Long Yi nodded secretly.
Ye Qingxue picked up the ceramic Buddha statue, looked up and asked, "Boss, how much is this?"
The boss glanced at it, his eyes slightly changed, and said, "You can't afford it no matter how much money you spend, just put it there."
The boss was a sturdy man with dark skin. He wore a white T-shirt that revealed the tattoos on his arms. He had thick, greasy and messy curly hair and looked fierce.
Ye Qingxue couldn't help but frown and said, "Boss, are you selling this? If you do, name a price."
The boss said calmly, "Beautiful lady, just leave the things there. You can't afford them."
Ye Qingxue smiled and shook her head, "Boss, just name the price."
The burly man frowned, then stretched out five fingers as thick as carrots.
Ye Qingxue nodded and said, "Fifty thousand? That's a fair price."
The antique stall owner snorted and said, "Are you kidding? I mean five hundred thousand! Not a penny less!"
"Hehe..." Long Yi couldn't help but chuckle. Although this Buddha statue was a valuable item, it was in a damaged state and could only be sold for around 70,000 to 80,000 yuan at best. He had to find a buyer who wanted it.
The fifty thousand that Ye Qingxue gave was already a relatively reasonable price.
Ye Qingxue bought this because she wanted to show Long Yi her taste in antiques. Otherwise, Ye Qingxue would not buy anything from this stall.
Ye Qingxue frowned and said, "Really not selling it?"
The boss said impatiently: "If I don't sell it, then I won't sell it!"
