Chapter 127 Buying Jade
The residences of those who organized the black market were searched several times by work security and sealed. The security guards also left.
There is no one guarding these places, and ordinary people stay far away, for fear that they will be caught as an accomplice if they get close. This provided convenience for He Yuzhu to go in and search.
In the evening, He Yuzhu told Song Jinfeng that he was going to the black market.
Song Jinfeng: "The black market has reopened now? Isn't this too fast?"
He Yuzhu: "It's normal. When people have needs, there is a market. It has been swept away so many times over the years. It won't take long for it to start again. In fact, the people above also know that there is no way to deal with these private transactions. Forbidden. It also acquiesces to the existence of the market. Only when the black market is too rampant and a little out of control, we will crack down."
Song Jinfeng said worriedly: "I know this too. It's just different. It wasn't long before the work safety inspection was conducted. Isn't it safe for you to go now? Will you get into trouble?"
He Yuzhu: "It's okay. I just checked. The work safety team is busy with this major case and has no time to waste energy in these places."
Song Jinfeng: "It's been so long since this case has been closed. I still don't know what will happen?"
He Yuzhu: "Who knows? This time the involvement is too big. The case has not been closed for so long. I guess the people involved are not low-level."
Song Jinfeng: "We don't lack anything now, so we should be careful. Don't take risks."
He Yuzhu: "It's okay. I'm just going to check on the situation and come back."
"Okay then. Be careful." Seeing that He Yuzhu refused to listen and insisted on going, Song Jinfeng told He Yuzhu to be careful.
In the middle of the night, He Yuzhu took advantage of the cover of darkness and slipped out of the house. After walking some distance, he took out his bicycle, got on it and rode towards the countryside.
Along the way, I met almost no one. Unlike before, you could still meet a lot of people on the way to the black market.
After arriving at the black market, He Yuzhu was somewhat surprised. It turns out that after being swept away, they would move to another place nearby. There was no change of food this time.
Now there is no one to manage the fees in the black market, so you can enter and exit at will. The black market is also shadowy. Although there were not as many people as before, there were still quite a few people.
He Yuzhu walked into the black market and found that both those setting up stalls and those buying things were very careful.
Walking towards the place where antiques were sold, He Yuzhu wanted to see if he could meet any acquaintances from the past so that he could get some news.
When I arrived at the place, I walked around and saw the familiar stall owner in a corner.
He Yuzhu squatted down in front of the stall and picked up a jade-carved pendant to play with.
When the stall owner saw someone eating something without saying hello, he raised his head and was about to curse when he recognized He Yuzhu: "Hey, who do I think is so unruly? It's you."
He Yuzhu: "It's okay, boss. The battle was so big this time, but they didn't even capture you?"
The stall owner looked around and saw that there was no one around. He said in a low voice: "Hey. Forget it. If I hadn't run away so fast and the target this time was for the group selling grain, I really wouldn't have been able to hide. past."
He Yuzhu: "Then you still dare to come out and set up a stall now. How long has it been?"
Stall owner: "There's nothing I can do about it. I don't have enough food at home. If I don't go out and set up a stall, what will I eat?"
He Yuzhu: "Can we get food now?"
Stall owner: "I can't get it. It's only been so long, who dares to commit a crime? You came here today, didn't you notice that no one is in charge of the black market now?"
He Yuzhu: "Really? I'm still wondering why no one collected money today?"
Stall owner: "You didn't see the battle that day. You killed several people on the spot. The rest were all arrested. It turns out that those with such a big background were all swept away, and the remaining gangsters who were not popular were already scared. Who dares to take the lead at this time? You should be careful now, no one is in charge here, there are many ruthless people, and many people were robbed in the past few days. I dare not bring this matter to light yet On the surface, I can only accept my own misfortune."
Although the gangsters originally charged a fee, they also ensured that the order in the black market and the surrounding areas of the black market were under their control, and no one dared to cause trouble in these places. After all, a safe and orderly black market can attract more people to trade here. The more people there are, the more money they receive. It's a win-win. Of course, if you are being targeted and you stay far away, outside of their territory, there is nothing you can do.
"Okay. I will pay attention. I want all these jade stones. Do you still have them in your bag?" He Yuzhu was ill a while ago, so he planned to collect more jade stones so that he could improve the Jade Qing Jue, so he put the jade stones on the stall. All the jade stones were picked out.
"There are a few more, I'll give them to you." The stall owner took out all the jade stones in the bag: "Why do you want so many jade stones?"
He Yuzhu has been dealing with this stall owner for several years. This person has good abilities and reputation, so he can still cooperate. So He Yuzhu was going to ask him to help collect some jade.
He Yuzhu: "I recently learned jade carving from someone. I want to get some more to learn from. By the way, can you get uncarved jade? It doesn't matter the size, just leftovers. I'm going to use it to practice my skills."
Stall owner: "Okay, how much do you want?"
He Yuzhu: “The more, the merrier.”
Stall owner: "How to trade?"
He Yuzhu said in a low voice: "I will come here once a week. We will trade as much as you can get. I will trade with you in food."
When the stall owner heard about the food, his eyes lit up. Although he still has food at home, he can survive for a while. But no one knows when food will be available on the black market again.
Hearing that He Yuzhu was trading grain, the stall owner wanted it. In addition, in previous transactions with He Yuzhu, He Yuzhu always used grain to trade. He believed that He Yuzhu must have grain in his hands and would not lie to him.
In addition, one hand pays and the other hand delivers the goods, so I just get more jade. Even if He Yuzhu lied to him, don't let him go. He can also sell the jade again. You won't lose anything. He quickly agreed: "No problem."
After negotiating with the stall owner, He Yuzhu took out the rice and settled the bill with the stall owner.
The stall owner opened his bag and saw rice, and quickly tied up the bag.
"Okay, okay. Rice is hard to come by now. It's all been exchanged for foreign exchange. As long as you can help me get jade that satisfies me, I'll trade rice with you."
Rice, just like what He Yuzhu said. It's not easy to have a meal of rice these days. The rice exchanged with He Yuzhu can be eaten by yourself, or you can take it out to exchange for something with the old people and the young. I believe that those old people and young people who have not eaten rice for a long time will definitely not be able to refuse it.
"Don't worry. I'll definitely get the jade that satisfies you." The stall owner promised, patting his chest for the rice.
"Okay. Remember to keep this matter secret. Once the information is leaked, I will not cooperate with you." He Yuzhu told the stall owner to keep it secret.
After the stall owner continued to promise, He Yuzhu put away the jade, carried the basket on his back, and went to look around other stalls.
After a round, He Yuzhu already knew the information he wanted to know, and was ready to visit the stronghold of the person he originally managed.
In order to better control the black market, these people usually have their bases near the black market, not too far away. He Yuzhu left the black market and headed towards the location he knew before.
