Sure enough, when they arrived at the tea stall, the driver got off the carriage and bought tea directly at the tea shed. Li Haitang watched closely the whole time, fearing that he might add medicine to the tea, so he took the detoxification pills with the savage husband in advance to take precautions.

She was really thirsty, and she didn't care about the roughness of the tea bowl, so she drank a large bowl in one gulp.

The herbal tea was filled with ice cube foam. After drinking it, Li Haitang immediately felt relieved from the heat, and his mind became clearer.

"Brother, from your accent, you don't look like someone from Los Angeles."

The carriage hadn't left the city yet, and Li Haitang was not familiar with the roads in Los Angeles, and she didn't know if the other party was going around in circles, so she tried her best to find a topic.

Listening to bandits' accent is very strange, a bit mixed, it can be seen that they have been to many places, and finally learned a little bit of local dialects, speaking nondescript.

"yes."

The driver of the car trembled, and immediately became wary. He squinted his eyes, thinking about the identities of the two people in the car.

The man with the scar on his face looked a bit like their accomplice, with a bit of evil spirit on his body, unlike ordinary businessmen.

He has been living the life of licking blood all these years, and he has some instinctive warning of the sense of crisis. At least, that man is very dangerous.

However, how can someone who can spend tens of thousands of taels of silver be an idler?

No way, the other party is also a bandit, and they want to buy some at a low price from him and resell them.

They have good things in their hands. If they weren't wanted, it would be inconvenient for them to get ahead, and they wouldn't have to hide their heads and hide their tails like they do now. How aggrieved!

"It doesn't look like you two are from Los Angeles. Xiao Zhuzi said that you also passed by here."

The driver of the car also spoke in a nonchalant manner, but he was thinking in his heart that if the target had a strong background or there were many people behind him, they might have to change their plan.

After receiving the bank note, he left quickly after the transaction, and let the two of them go.

It's not that they have a conscience, it's just that they don't want to find trouble for themselves on the way to escape.

"hehe."

Li Haitang laughed dryly, and the other party wanted to make a routine out of her mouth, thinking she was a fool?

She said casually, "We Ming people don't talk dark words. Almost all the people who come to Los Angeles and go to Jewelry Street are foreigners. It's enough to get a little bit of cheapness and benefits. You can't stay where you are, right?"

"We are leaving in a hurry, otherwise we wouldn't beg Xiao Zhuzi for help."

What Li Haitang said was the truth. After hearing this, the Bandits driving the chariot became more and more certain that the deal between the two was done behind the scenes, and even if someone was traveling with them, not many people would know about it.

At noon, there were fewer and fewer people on the street, and the sun was rising, and the people were resting at home. On the way out of the city, there were almost no pedestrians, carriages or horses.

The driver continued walking, following one direction, and came to the foot of a deserted mountain.

Xiao Lingchuan took Li Haitang and his wife down from the carriage and looked around, but there was no one around, and there was nothing to trade.

The driver wants to kill people here? Just rely on him?

Li Haitang felt that it would not be that simple. There must be other bandits ambushing around, and the other party might still be sizing her up.

The people from the yamen will not come so quickly, so they have to delay the time first to ensure their own safety.

How many scenes has she never seen before? It was just a few bandits in the area, not to mention that he was accompanied by his savage husband. Li Haitang didn't take it seriously at all, with a relaxed face and a faint smile all the time.

She didn't know that her expression had confused the bandits hiding in the grass and feeding mosquitoes.

"Boss, look at that lady's face, she looks like she's here to visit the mountains and rivers, can't she have something to rely on behind her?"

The bandit's second brother stabbed the eldest with his hand, and his heart skipped a beat. Recently, they have been very unlucky. They made a vote from Lucheng and border towns. As soon as they fled to Fancheng, they became bereaved dogs. If they stayed in a good inn, they could also lose a wave of brothers.

It doesn't matter to them when people go in, anyway, the money is fixed, and they are happier if there are less money.

The bandit boss fled all the way to Los Angeles with the rest of his brothers, just to exchange the looted items for silver. As long as they have money, they will leave here soon.

"It looks like it."

The bandit boss stared at Li Haitang, seeing that the little lady was beautiful, and even ran to the stream to wash her face, she was not nervous at all, she didn't seem to be that kind of inexperienced rookie.

Perhaps, the other party clearly knew their identities, but they still came.

This group of people did not dare to act rashly. After waiting for a long time, there was no movement around them, so the bandits relaxed a lot.

The bandit boss waved his hand, and with a dozen or so remaining brothers, carrying a few boxes of things, they got out of the barley.

"Here, this is our product, you can order it."

There are many people on their side, and the bandits are very confident, and there is no idea that the other party will rob things and not give money.

Li Haitang sneered, can she come in vain? Naturally for the benefit.

A naive fool is not suitable to be a bandit, because she will teach these people a vivid lesson with blood and tears immediately.

Under normal circumstances, the property confiscated by the Yamen will not be given to the owner. In particular, bandits kill people, and they don't know where they snatched things from. It is not clear.

These things are cheaper for magistrates and cheaper for officials, so it's better to be cheaper for her. She is worried that she doesn't have the start-up capital to open a shop.

With the stolen goods, she would not sell them on Jewelry Street, and send them to the black market, at least 80% of the market price can be given.

"Let me consider."

Li Haitang opened a big box, inside was a box of jade pendants, pearls and other objects, which had nothing to do with gold and silver.

Those gold and silver jewelry can still be twisted and used directly, but jade pendants are not.

Jewelry in prosperous times, gold in troubled times, once the world is in chaos, who would have the leisure to buy these pastimes? The first thing people think about is whether they can go hungry and survive.

The bandits robbed a total of four large boxes, all of which were of different colors, good and bad. It looked like things cobbled together from many people. Some of the emeralds had poor water quality and were worthless.

"These are too different from Yu Ruyi, right?"

Li Haitang frowned, with a look of disgust, and said bluntly, "Don't you only have these junk?"

The bandit boss grinned, it seemed that he was right, the two who came were experts and could tell the quality of things at a glance.

Before he became a bandit, he was working as a clerk in a jewelry store. Because of theft, he was sent to an official by the shopkeeper, and he had no choice but to escape.

Having been a buddy for several years, his vision is naturally different, so after snatching things, he patiently sorts them.

These are just to deceive people's eyes. Compared with Yu Ruyi, they are indeed tattered. A large box is not as valuable as Yu Ruyi. He left a large box privately and hid it in the barley. That is the real valuable item.
