C226 Quancheng Ghost Market

Hu Yue's voice suddenly turned lower, her face became serious, and she said in a deep voice, "I think only in that place would you be willing to have the thing you want …"    

    

"Old Hu, are you saying …"    

    

Qin Jianfeng seemed to have thought of something and was alarmed. He shook his head and said, "That's not too good. The things there are not clean. If we randomly mess around, there might be a big problem!"    

    

"There's no other way!"    

    

With a helpless expression, Hu Yue spread out her hands and said, "What Brother Chen is looking for is quite troublesome. I've been in the antique market for so many years, but I haven't seen many of them. Other than them, no one else has any stock!"    

    

"Hey, what are you two talking about?" Chen Long was confused, "Why can't I understand a single word?!"    

    

"Cough cough, Xiaolong, don't be anxious!"    

    

Qin Jianfeng coughed twice before explaining, "Furnace is also known as a cauldron, with three legs and two ears. Since ancient times, it has always been the most valuable weapon in the country. It has rarely been seen on the market.    

    

"But I'm really in a hurry to use it …" Chen Long whispered.    

    

"Old Qin, don't be too suspicious!"    

    

At this time, Hu Yue waved her hand, smiled and said: "When the time comes, the two of us will accompany Brother Chen for a stroll, there shouldn't be any problems, at most, just keep your eyes open!"    

    

"Alright, that's all we can do!"    

    

Qin Jianfeng sighed and nodded his head. He looked at Chen Long and said, "Xiaolong, I must warn you in advance that once we reach that place, you must not act rashly. You must listen to our commands and must not make any rash bids!"    

    

"Why can't I bid?" Chen Long asked curiously.    

    

Qin Jianfeng glanced at Hu Yue and said: "Isn't this simple? Those fellows there are all intelligent people, even darker than Old Hu. If you were to say that Old Hu is a profiteer, then those fellows are big profiteers. As long as you show the slightest bit of interest, then the price can instantly increase a hundredfold!"    

    

"Damn, it's so dark!"    

    

Chen Long couldn't help but exclaim in surprise as he stared at Hu Yue. He felt that this fellow was exceptionally adorable.    

    

"Old Qin, you're being too unreasonable. How can you be compared to me like this!" Hu Yue stood up angrily, "If you dare say that again, I'll throw you out!"    

    

"Tsk, what I said was the truth. Was it wrong?" Qin Jianfeng said with disdain.    

    

Hu Yue instantly became flustered and exasperated, her eyes opened wide as she roared: "You want to anger me to death, you're courting death!"    

    

"Come, come! Are you afraid of me?"    

    

Qin Jianfeng did not show any signs of weakness. He rolled up his sleeves and started fighting Hu Yue. He seemed to be ready to start a fight at any moment.    

    

Seeing that these two people were really serious, Chen Long quickly stood up to smooth things over. He stretched out his hand to push them down onto the seat and asked: "Uncle Qin, Brother Hu, don't be anxious, we have something to talk about!"    

    

"Humph!"    

    

After the two of them sat down, they glared at each other and coldly snorted at the same time. Then, they turned their heads away from each other.    

    

But a moment later, Hu Yue seemed to realize something was wrong. She pulled Chen Long over and asked, "Brother Chen, why do you call me brother, and instead call me uncle?"    

    

"Tch!"    

    

Before Chen Long could say anything, Qin Jianfeng took a step forward and said, "My daughter is from the same generation as Xiao Long, so I am naturally Xiao Long's elder!"    

    

Then he laughed and ridiculed, "Old Hu, you can't do that anymore. Since you and Xiaolong are of the same generation, shouldn't you call me uncle? Come, come, come, come!    

    

"Call you sister!"    

    

Hu Yue couldn't sit still any longer, and angrily said: "Isn't it because you have a daughter?!"    

    

"Hey, laozi does have a daughter, what do you want!" Qin Jianfeng smiled proudly, "If you have the ability, you can have one too!"    

    

"You!"    

    

Hu Yue was so angry that her face turned red, but then she sneered and said, "Old Qin, so what if you have a daughter? In the end, Brother Chen was still taken advantage of.    

    

"How can a cheap dragon be …"    

    

Qin Jianfeng was halfway through his words when he suddenly felt something. His eyes widened as he stared at Chen Long. Gritting his teeth, he asked, "Xiaolong, tell me honestly, did you and Little Qing …"    

    

F * ck, you two got into a scuffle, why did you get involved with me?!    

    

Seeing how Qin Jianfeng was acting, if he could not give an explanation, then there would be no end to it. He hurriedly said, "Uncle Qin, you're thinking too much. Little Qing and I don't have anything. Heaven can tell you about it. If you don't believe it, go ask her!"    

    

"Really?"    

    

Qin Jianfeng's eyes remained fixed on Chen Long, full of suspicion. It was obvious that he did not fully believe Chen Long's words.    

    

"Really, I'm not lying to you!"    

    

Chen Long was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. What the hell is this? You don't think highly of your own daughter, but if she falls for me, it's not my fault, right?!    

    

Thinking about it, this was not impossible at all!    

    

Chen Long's heart froze. Every time Qin Qing saw him, there was a slow look of worship in her eyes. Although he saw her as his disciple, did she really see him as just a master?    

    

Other than Qin Qing herself, no one else knew about this!    

    

"Hmph, Little Qing is still young. If you dare to lie to her, I won't forgive you!"    

    

Qin Jianfeng said this last sentence. Even if he did not believe it, there was nothing he could do at this time. He secretly made up his mind to bring Qin Qing back as soon as possible to prevent any mistakes.    

    

After the argument ended, the entire room fell into silence. Qin Jianfeng and Hu Yue didn't like each other, so Chen Long, who was in the middle, felt extremely awkward.    

    

In order to create a harmonious atmosphere, Chen Long could only say, "Uncle Qin, where is the place you're talking about?" Is it far? When are we going? "    

    

"Ask him!"    

    

Qin Jianfeng was still fuming and did not want to answer Chen Long's question. Chen Long could only look to Hu Yue for help.    

    

Hu Yue, on the other hand, didn't care. She smiled and said, "Far away in the horizon, right in front of your eyes. This is the antique market, Quancheng Ghost Market!"    

    

"Ghost Market?"    

    

Chen Long was stunned. This was the first time he heard this term and could not help but ask, "What is this thing? A damned trading market? "    

    

"Of course not!"    

    

Hu Yue took a sip of her tea and explained, "The ghost market is from Beijing, this ghost does not mean that the ghost market is a ghost market, but rather refers to the opening time!"    

    

"Opening time?"    

    

"That's right, in the past, the ghost market in Beijing was also called the night market, which is also known as the Xiao city. This night market was not like other night markets. "The current night market started around dusk and continued into the first half of the night. There were also those that stayed all night. In a fashionable phrase, it was called nightlife!"    

    

"And the Ghost Market is a place where people call it a business in the middle of the night. It is said that from the late Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China, they are very famous in Beijing, such as Dong Xiao City outside of Chongwen Sect, Ye City outside of Xuanwu Sect, and Xiao City outside of DeShengmen City. Pan's Ghost Market belongs to the old Ghost Market, and people entered the market at around four in the morning!"    

    

"Then why do you have to call yourself such a terrifying name like the Ghost Market? It's not like ordinary people would dare to go just by listening to this name!" Chen Long asked in confusion.    

    

"Ha ha!"    

    

Hu Yue laughed and explained patiently: "The ghost market is not for ordinary people to open. The old saying goes, wealth comes from danger, just listening to this name is already enough to scare you to the point of peeing your pants, and you still want to earn money? Dream on! "    

    

"As for the origin of this name, there is some explanation!"    

    

"What do you mean?" Chen Long asked again.    

    

After saying that, Hu Yue became excited, and said: "Speaking of the late Qing Dynasty, the times are chaotic, and the nation is on the verge of destruction, even the emperor cannot protect it, not to mention the officials. Many of the Qing Clan's heirs and nobles have fallen, leaving them with no means of survival. They have no choice but to live off of the small amount of wealth left behind by their ancestors. "    

    

"But after all, he has always been outstanding. How could he put on airs and lose face? Thus, taking advantage of the half-light before dawn, I took out an antique and secretly set up a stall to sell it.    

    

"Yan Jing is the imperial city. Back then, it was the gathering place of the bureaucratic families. Quite a few rich and powerful people are in ruins. Over time, it became a ghost market along the way."    

    

Chen Long was also very interested in this kind of thing and could not help but ask, "Is there another way to put it?"    

    

"Of course!"    

    

Hu Yue put down her teacup and said, "Another saying is that the Ghost Market is open early, the sky is not yet bright, and there are no lights. It's pitch black, and the poor people burn firestones.    

    

"Under the simple lighting equipment, the human figures shuttled back and forth, drifting about erratically. Without even half a ghost, the ghost aura would be the first to appear. In addition, many of the noblemen had come here to sell fake items. There were also counterfeiters who sold fake items. Both of them were sneaky. "    

    

"In short, it cannot do without the 'Ghost' word, and the name of the Ghost Market is derived from it."    

    

"Holy shit, this is really interesting!"    

    

Chen Long couldn't help but exclaim in admiration as he looked at Hu Yue with a bit of a change in his eyes. He initially thought that Hu Yue was just a peddler, trying to cheat her. Who would've thought that there was actually something in his stomach!    

    

"Brother Hu is knowledgeable, knowledgeable, and knowledgeable. This little brother is extremely impressed!"    

    

In the end, Chen Long couldn't help but flatter her. After all, she didn't suffer any loss. Besides, it sounded really interesting.    

    

"Hehe, you're too kind. It's just a little trick, not worth mentioning!"    

    

Hu Yue waved her hands, saying that she didn't mind. However, the corners of his mouth were stretched to the back of his head. He was also a little flattered by Chen Long's flattery, and he even glanced at Qin Jianfeng provocatively.    

    

At this moment, Qin Jianfeng could no longer sit still. He was a high-level intellectual, but he was actually looked down upon by Hu Yue, who was such a coarse old man. Even his uncle could not tolerate this!    

    

"Cough, cough!"    

    

He then glared at Hu Yue, coughed and said, "Old Hu has been in the antique market for so many years, it isn't strange for him to know about this. If he didn't even know about this, then he would have been eaten up long ago!"    

    

These words directly kicked Hu Yue out of the sky and she fell down on the ground, making her fall down like a dog eating shit. Hu Yue was so angry that he almost died!
