Seeing this lucrative business was about to slip away, the man hurriedly called out to them, "Wait!" "Zhi Youlin, the Qingliang Valley army is currently trapped there. The South Vietnamese do possess artillery, something our intelligence network hasn't reported. As for whether the Qingliang King is in danger, that's unknown. But what is foreseeable is that if the Qingliang Valley army can't find a way to break out within two months, I don't need to elaborate; you can probably guess what will happen next."
Mo Yu turned around and threw the purse in his hand over, then pulled Tang Chen and strode out.
"Thank you very much, please come often when you have time!"
However, facts have proved that if you do business with ill intentions, the result will be that you will lose everything, and you may even lose both the wife and the army.
Mo Yu glanced at the person behind him and saw him open the purse. He then picked up Tang Chen by the waist and said, "Let's go!"
Before the two of them left the street where the tavern was located, the residents who had been strolling around leisurely suddenly changed their expressions after hearing the sound of teacups falling from the tavern. Tang Chen felt like a gentle and cute little girl who had transformed into a big man in the blink of an eye.
In just a moment, the three of them were cut off from their path and trapped on the side street: "Oh no..."
The waiter, who had changed his appearance in the secret room just now, was surrounded by the crowd. He was tearing off the mask on his face and walking slowly towards them. They didn't know if they were seeing things or if they were dazzled, but it seemed like this man grew taller with every step he took.
"Hehe, I, Hua, have been in the martial arts world for so many years, but I have never seen anyone dare to fool me with a stone. Either give me money, or leave my ears and eyes behind." As he spoke, Hua Wuxin picked up a leaf that was passing by and threw it to his side. The leaf was firmly embedded in the wall.
Li Xinzhai saw this and thought to himself, "This is not good." They had been careless earlier. They hadn't expected such a master to exist in this small place. He had felt something was a little strange when he entered the town, and now he finally understood what was so strange. The people in this town were all black market thugs.
Li Xinzhai leaned against Mo Yu, vigilantly observing the crowd's every move. "Are you sure you can break through?"
Mo Yu replied solemnly in a low voice: "It would be better if there were fewer people. They have too many people, and they are all top-notch masters."
If they acted rashly, they would surely be defeated. They were fine, but as a man in the martial arts world, he would inevitably be hurt. If it weren't for Tang Chen, they could have given it a try...
Tang Chen seemed to have anticipated this situation and said calmly, "Put me down."
Mo Yu was afraid that she would do something bad, so he just looked down at her without moving. Tang Chen sighed angrily and shouted, "I said, put me down!"
Mo Yu had no choice but to reassure her. He said, wouldn't it be better if Li Xinzhai tied her up and took her back earlier? Pian Pian listened to her and changed the route to Qingliang Valley. Now it's all messed up!
Tang Chen slowly walked up to Hua Wuxin and nodded slightly as a greeting, then said with a smile, "Sir, your surname is Hua, right? You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say anything you want."
Hua Wuxin casually threw the large purse filled with stones to the ground and said helplessly, "Oh, I wonder if Princess, what advice do you have? Is there something wrong with what I said? You are unkind, but you can't blame me for being unjust."
Tang Chen laughed and said, "Boss Hua is indeed amazing, but I, Tang Chen, am not the kind of person who would eat and drink for free. Since you said that everything here is stone, haha, I have no choice. Boss Hua doesn't want to accept the reward, so I can only be so unrighteous."
Hua Wuxin looked at her calmness and thought that either there was some treasure in the bag of stones, or she had thought of a way to escape or wanted to destroy herself and the stone together.
He had spent three days building this small town for his black market business. Since they were his first customers and the only ones who dared to play dirty tricks in his black market over the years, Hua Wuxin pondered for a moment, then half-doubtedly picked up the purse from the ground and poured it out to examine it.
The moment the bag full of stones fell to the ground, Hua Wuxin quickly caught the black pearl before it fell to the ground: "This is it!"
Mo Yu and Li Xinzhai also looked at Tang Chen in shock. This stone was prepared by Mo Yu herself. When did she mix this thing in? Moreover, she actually carried such a valuable thing on her body. Was she really not afraid that others would be tempted by her money?
This black pearl was certainly real, and Tang Chen wasn't one to use fake things to deceive people. Apparently, this Hua Boss was a very influential figure in the black market. If the black market's leadership couldn't even tell the difference between real and fake black pearls, it would be truly laughable.
Tang Chen glanced at the black pearl in Hua Wuxin's hand and raised his eyebrows. "This thing is much more valuable than your information. I didn't ask you to return the money, but you blamed me first."
Although Hua Wuxin had never seen what the black pearl actually looked like, according to ancient texts and the information they had previously gathered, the black pearl was indeed in Tang Chen's possession. Previously, rumors had circulated that the pearl had been given to Wang Yanzhou as a dowry, and although Wang Yanzhou later stated this, the true situation seemed to be different.
After being 90% certain that the round black pearl in his hand was indeed the Ouyang family's black pearl, Hua Wuxin, who had just been as ferocious as the Black and White Impermanence, gradually softened his expression. Then, he made a complete about-face: "Princess, please don't make such jokes."
As soon as Hua Wuxin finished speaking, the masters who had surrounded them disappeared instantly. On the street that was originally blocked by people, only a few of them were left.
After Hua Wuxin played with the pearl for a while, a servant hurried over from the tavern, holding a piece of paper. Hua Wuxin glanced at the contents of the paper, pulled out a small seal from his pocket, stamped it, and handed the paper to Tang Chen, explaining, "This item is too valuable. Although I, Hua, love money, I'm not as unrestrained as my subordinates. You can go now. Pawn this item with me. When you have money, you can redeem it. This is my black market contract. Given its value, I'll give you a discount. Pay off the debt within fifty years, and I'll return it to you."
Hua Wuxin's move actually shocked Tang Chen. You'd say he's a serious businessman, but this behavior reeks of dishonesty. It's common knowledge that Qingliang Valley is wealthy. Was he planning to give them a bargain?
