Chapter 37: Reselling.
Since Grace was accompanying him to the black market, Lu Xia did not let the old butler go with him. After all, the construction of Courtyard No. 2 still needed the old butler to keep an eye on it.
On the night of departure, Grace asked the old butler to temporarily prepare two cloaks.
When Lu Xia saw it, she was a little curious: "What is this for?"
"The black market is full of mixed people, so it's better to be careful." When Grace said this, she did not forget to reach out to help her adjust the hood. The wide hood just covered Lu Xia's face.
Only a small and beautiful chin could be seen.
The old butler sent the two out and did not forget to remind them: "You must be careful and follow Grace closely."
"I know, don't worry, take good care of the house, we will be back later." Lu Xia waved to the old butler and followed Grace into the car.
In the past two days, Grace's condition seemed to be stable, and the wound on her chest healed well. Those hard scales never appeared again when there was no danger.
Thinking of the blood test report from the previous two days, it showed that Grace's beast gene had increased from less than 30% to
65%.
It can be said that if nothing unexpected happens, Grace's injury this time seems dangerous, but it is also a blessing in disguise to activate the beast gene in her body.
It's just that Grace has not yet mastered the power brought by the beast gene.
In the past few days, Lu Xia directly replaced all of Grace's drinking water with spiritual spring water. The reason why he was able to stabilize so quickly was that the spiritual spring water played a big role. After all, this thing has healing and purification effects.
On the way to the black market, Lu Xia was thinking quietly until he arrived at the destination. Lu Xia followed Grace out of the car.
What he saw was a deserted suburb with weeds.
Lu Xia looked around in surprise: "Is the black market here?"
"There are a total of 8 entrances to the black market in Emperor Star. This is just one of them. It is relatively close to the Toya Auction House. Follow me closely and be careful of your steps." When Grace finished speaking, she had already held Lu Xia's hand.
Lu Xia was a little surprised at Grace's knowledge of the black market. She thought of what the old housekeeper had said before, that the military had a black market cleanup mission every year. Did Grace participate in it, so
she knew so much about it? Thinking of this, she asked, "How do you know so much about it?"
Grace reached out to help her adjust her hood, and then answered softly, "The military had a mission here before, and I led a team here, so I know."
"No wonder." Hearing this, Lu Xia did not continue to ask. She was not interested in what mission Grace had done here.
Following Grace through the half-human-high grass, she saw an entrance that led directly to the underground.
If Grace hadn't brought her here, she would not have known that this seemingly abandoned cellar was one of the eight entrances to the black market.
"After we go in, if anyone asks anything, I will answer it. Don't speak. Females generally don't come here."
After all, females are pampered. Even females without backgrounds can live very well as long as they are willing to work hard, so no female will think of going to the black market on their own initiative.
Of course, if a female appears on the black market, she can probably be sold for a very high price.
After successfully passing through the narrow entrance, what she saw was a brightly lit underground city.
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would never have imagined that there was such a spectacular city underground.
"The black market is only open at night. There will be no one here during the day." Grace explained to her softly. When passing by the mask stall, she bought two plain white masks and handed one to Lu Xia, keeping one for herself.
Lu Xia took it and put it on her face without asking any more questions. Now, as long as she didn't take off her clothes or talk, no one would know that she was a female.
"There is still more than an hour before the Toya auction. Do you want to take a look here?"
Lu Xia nodded. She was too curious about this place now.
Seeing this, Grace smiled a little and took Lu Xia's hand to go deep into the market.
If you don't say that this is a black market, just looking at this lively scene, you will simply think that this is just a more
lively night market.
On the stalls on both sides, there were all kinds of things for sale, food, accessories, clothes, pets, etc., all kinds of things were dazzling.
Lu Xia followed Grace and walked around, and he just found it very interesting, until he came to a stall and saw the products on it, and he was surprised for a moment.
Because the stall was displaying the beauty cream developed by No. 1 Courtyard!
The beauty cream was actually moved to the black market to sell?
Lu Xia pulled Grace's hand, and before she could prompt, Grace said: "How much is this beauty cream?"
"This one is 5999, and this one is 8999." The tall orc in a cloak sitting behind the stall said, "There are only so many, buy it quickly, this is a good thing, and I don't need to say much about its effectiveness. It's sold out, and I don't know how many people are still waiting to buy it."
Lu Xia wanted to give him a "good guy" just by hearing the price!
The official price of 500 ml is 599, but he bought it directly for 5999. 1000 ml is 899, but he bought it directly for 8999. If he does business like this, he will be very rich!
"Did you buy all these?"
"Needless to say, I have a younger brother who was selected as a volunteer. I saw with my own eyes that he used this to heal the scars left by the burns on his face. At that time, this thing was not on the market yet. I thought that once it was on the market, it would definitely be a hit, so I asked our whole family to buy it. But manpower is limited, so there is only so much. My price is a bit expensive, but think about it, buy it early, use it early, and enjoy it early, and you can get better early, right?"
This is quite honest, and it is really dark that he can't resist it.
However, encountering this incident also sounded a wake-up call for Lu Xia. In the future, when new products are released, purchase restrictions must be adopted.
As for the reselling behavior, when the production capacity is increased, this behavior will naturally fall apart. The other party makes money, which is just making this wave of quick money.
Thinking of this, Lu Xia did not intend to pursue the matter.
The fact that the other party could think of this method was also a kind of ability of the other party. There was no need to kill him. Besides, this thing was also bought by someone with real money. She really had no control over how much it was resold for. She
hooked her finger in Grace's palm, and Grace understood and turned around. When she was about to take Lu Xia to the other side, she suddenly heard a voice from behind: "Get out of the way, everyone!"
Then she heard the sound of camel bells shaking. Lu Xia looked in the direction of the sound. A tall camel was walking towards this side, and behind it was a cart with a large iron cage. At this moment, a white-haired man in a black robe was sitting there. The man
closed his eyes and leaned against the cage. His face was pale. On the back of his hand, which was slightly drooping at his side, there was a red birthmark similar to peach blossoms.
