First Evolution

Vol 13 Chapter 62: Oni City

At this time, a few people came from outside and stopped outside the door of Master Liu. They should be newly added guards.

However, although these people seem to be quite powerful, they are all quite old, not to mention gray hair, and one even broke a hand and replaced it with an iron hook.

Looking at these apparently powerless guards, and then hearing what Mr. Liu said, Fang Linyan sighed slightly, nodded and walked out.

When they went back, Master Liu specially sent them a carriage, so it took less than an hour to return to the Jimin Medicine Store.

After confirming that the family was safe, but after losing a lot of medicinal materials, Master Huo also fell to the ground with a stone in his heart and began to drink.

After three rounds of drinking, Shuang Fang started to talk about things after the separation, because the current communication is not as developed as later generations.

That's why Fang Linyan realized at this time that although he was taking great risks in Nagasaki, Song Yuren's side was also not easy at all, and his activities in Shanghai also encountered great resistance, and even suffered To the assassination.

Fortunately, Song Yuren is not an ordinary person. He has a firmer belief than the rest of the officials, even stubborn persistence! Therefore, it is still in unremitting activities and efforts, and after spending a lot of money, there has been a major breakthrough.

Hearing this news, Fang Linyan was also quite excited, and after drinking three glasses, he stood up and said goodbye:

"Everyone, I should have conspired with everyone to get drunk today, but I really can't take it easy on Mr. Liu. There are so few good officials who dare to fight. Those Japanese lunatics will definitely not let it go. He, I have to go to the barracks to see if there is anything I can do to help."

After hearing Fang Linyan's words, Master Huo laughed and said:

"Young Master Liu can actually rest assured. Master Liu has a lot of dealings with the little devils, and there is a reason why he is the only one in Tianjin who is willing to drive these little devils to work."

After Fang Linyan heard this, his eyes lit up and said:

"Appreciate further details."

Master Huo smiled and said:

"Master Liu's real name is Liu Jialiang. He has a family background in playing the oriental little devil. His father is a famous general of a generation, Liu Mingchuan, who has been the governor of Taiwan for eleven years."

"Since the Japanese invaded Ryukyu, they have been coveting Taiwan and never forgetting it. They have always coerced and tempted General Liu, and they have done everything they can."

"So, Mr. Liu has seen a lot of ghost tricks on the Japanese side! He was only careless when he was attacked before. Now that he has paid attention to it, there is definitely no need to worry."

Fang Linyan was immediately shocked. He never imagined that this Master Liu was actually Liu Mingchuan's son! The latter is a big man who left a deep impression on history in the late Qing Dynasty.

He is one of the generals of the Huai Army, and he made great achievements in the battle with the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. That's all. The key is that he defended Keelung, Taiwan in the Sino-French war, and killed thousands of French soldiers. He set an example very tenaciously. Great battle.

It can be said that at least one-third of the international status of the Qing government at the end of the Qing Dynasty was played by Liu Mingchuan, and he has been serving as the governor of Taiwan since then, resisting the French and Japanese ambitions for Taiwan. Outstanding credit.

Hearing what Master Huo said, Ah Qi couldn't help but say:

"I heard that the Japanese couldn't buy it, so they used spies to poison Liu Mingchuan Master Liu. Although there was no danger to his life when the treatment was successful, he also caused the old man to vomit blood, leaving the root of the disease. The reason for the death of Master Liu the year before was also. Old wounds come on."

"It is precisely for these reasons that Mr. Liu Jialiang deeply hates the Japanese. This is a veritable national hatred and family hatred."

"So, when these oriental little devils fled to our side in Tianjin, that is, Master Liu was very interested in chasing their buttocks, and they were incompatible with each other. If it was someone else, it would definitely be a blind eye. Close one eye and let it pass."

After learning about this series of situations, Fang Linyan also felt relieved.

Speaking of this, it is obvious that the guards who were added later seem to be old and disabled, but they should be the real confidants in Master Liu's hands, and they are capable of fighting.

At this time, Fang Linyan finally felt relieved. After all, the Japanese invaded this "iron army" to fight in the hinterland of China.

And he has already organized himself in private, such as Wang Wu Ruo Da Dao, Master Huo, and Li San to help, and on the official side, there is also a loyal and dedicated Wu Future like Master Liu to pursue his recovery. Forming a huge suppression should be a no-brainer.

A group of people drank happily that night, and did not disperse until late at night. Fang Linyan also lived in the Jimin Pharmacy. Of course, Li San took Fang Linyan's money, and of course he wanted to make more money, so he accepted it half-heartedly. He was hired by Fang Linyan to work for him.

As for face, of course there is no such thing, if face is needed, Li San will not be Chu Liuxiang's colleague......

When he was about to fall asleep, Fang Linyan remembered something, and that was that he still had two items marked as "valuables" waiting to be realized.

These two things are the Naginata sword, the women's room, and a tea set, Huaixue Shengfang.

The introduction also makes it clear that as long as it has the label of "valuables", it can be sold in the antique markets of big cities in East Asia, or bartered.

Tianjin is of course a big city in the entire East Asia region at this time, and it can be ranked in the top five safely, so

At this time, Fang Linyan was actually in the outskirts of Tianjin, and there was Li San, a big connoisseur of selling stolen goods by his side, so he simply called Li San over and said:

"Third Master, I have two things here. I need to go to a powerful store in Tianjin for them to look at. Do you know the way?"

After listening to Li San, he immediately said:

"Is the thing dry or wet?"

Fang Linyan was a little stunned for a while, and Li San suddenly burst into laughter. Knowing that the eldest young master should not understand their jargon, he said:

"Dry refers to licensed products, and wet refers to those that may have problems with their origins, and those that cannot be seen."

Fang Linyan figured it out, these two things were snatched from the Japanese, so there must be some problems with the way they came.

But I got it on the market in China and sold it, and I also carried the identity of a wealthy (outdated) son, and I am still a little famous in the capital business circle, so it must not be a big problem, so I said:

"It's all right."

Li Sandao:

"If you are in a hurry, you can go directly to the ghost market. We will leave until the fourth watch (about 2 am), and when we arrive, the goods will be shipped, and we can also taste the fried ear cakes and noodle tea over there. That's a no-brainer!"

Fang Linyan said oddly:

"I thought I had to go directly to the ghost city if there was a problem with the way I came. Why don't I go there if there is no problem?"

Li Sanyi smiled and said:

"My son, are you a layman? Now the ghost markets are all opened in the concession. You have to pay for the Indian patrols over there. , Because the security on this street is guaranteed, it is quite popular."

"As a result, many big bosses in the industry took a fancy to the profits, and rented a door on the street in the ghost market. As soon as the ghost market opened, they opened the door, and then a lantern was placed at the door, no matter what. Winter and summer have to be covered with a thick curtain, this is to keep secrets from those who go to the ghost market."

"Although the prices given by these land-based stores may not be too high, the advantage is that there is no trouble in the future. If something goes wrong, there is still a place to find someone to reason with. In addition, foreigners in the concession will also come to visit, so the business is still strong. OK."

Fang Linyan nodded after listening to Li San's words:

"Okay, then let's take a break first, wake up at the fourth watch, and then go to our ghost market in Tianjin."

***

Four hours later,

Fang Linyan and Li San have already arrived in the ghost city of Tianjin. The two of them even compared their foot strength on the road. Li San's nickname "Swallow" can be imagined that his light body skills must be first-class, and it can be said that he needs endurance. Have endurance, have speed and speed.

Compared with this, Fang Linyan still has a clear gap, but Yanzi Li San is amazed, thinking that Fang Linyan is really talented, and he has such leg strength without learning Qinggong from their sect.

If it wasn't for the fact that the sixth young master of the Hu family must have no interest in being a snitch, he might have thought of bringing him into his sect.

Why is the antique market in the early morning called a ghost market?

The source of this lies in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, when the society was in turmoil and social strata changed drastically. Many princes, wealthy people, etc. went bankrupt in the blink of an eye.

There is no money or power, and the life of the family has to be maintained. I go to the pawnshop in the daytime. I am afraid that my acquaintances will see that I will lose face, so I put on a hat or scarf in the early morning when there are few people, and sell the belongings at home.

Gradually, this kind of behavior became a climate, because this point is the point of ghost activity, so the ghost market got its name.

Of course, some people say that this ghost market is mixed with fish and dragons, and the light is extremely poor compared to the daytime. If you want to buy old things, you will have to test your eyesight and experience very much. The old ghost who does not buckle is the old river and lake, so it is called the ghost market.

When the two of them arrived at the ghost market, they found that it was already very lively. The most conspicuous thing was the dozen or so food stalls that only did business at night, regardless of the size of the place. Stewed, steamed, roasted, fried Everything can be arranged properly for the guests.

Along the street, there is a row of stalls. The things on the stalls are real or fake. It all depends on eyesight. Generally speaking, they don't open their mouths to bargain. The two sides are counting their fingers in their sleeves. You can also do business here.

Of course, these stalls are definitely not Fang Linyan's target, and he has no intention of picking up leaks. He followed Li San to the door of a shop with a thick cotton cloth door showing light. The shop's plaque reads "Jianguzhai" three Then the two of them sat down on the stool next to them.

Fang Linyan's mind must also be very smart, and immediately said:

"Anyone in there?"

Li Sandao:

"Yes, the rule of the ghost market is to avoid customers seeing each other, and when there are customers in the shop, they will not accept the rest."

Then Li San tilted his head at the shelf next to him:

"If there are no guests inside, a red lantern will be hung next to it."

As if he heard Fang Linyan's words, as soon as the curtain moved, a guest came out, wearing a dog-skin felt hat common in the north, and a thick scarf around his neck and muzzle, leaving only a pair of red eyes. It was exposed outside, and it seemed that she had just shed tears.

After the guest left in a hurry, a young man wearing a small cap with melon skin came out immediately, and said to the two:

"Two masters, please come inside."

When I walked in, I found that it was quite spacious. In addition to the exhibits in the counter next to it, there were several paintings and calligraphy on the walls. A middle-aged man was looking at a small jar in front of the candles. It looks like it was just received.

After hearing the footsteps, the middle-aged man looked up and smiled:

"Yoha, third master! Which gust of wind brought you, a distinguished guest."

Li Sangong arched his hands and said:

"In front of you, I can't be a master, but this time I came here with this young master Hu Liu."

After the middle-aged man heard it, he immediately put down the things in his hand, and then cupped his hands:

"He Jinyong, I have seen Master Hu Liu, may I ask if Master Liu wants to choose something this time? Or do you want to realize it?"

Fang Linyan smiled and said:

"It's the realization of what's in the handle. UU reading www.uukanshu.com"

Then he took out the teacup: Huai Xue Shengfang and put it on the table next to him.

This is also a rule in the industry, but anything that is fragile cannot be handed over directly, but should be put aside first, and then others will pick it up.

There are many people who don't know how to do it because of this. The seller deliberately manipulates the hands and feet when they pass them, so that the porcelain and the like fall to the ground and break into pieces.

Then the buyer will have a big deal. The other party will insist that you broke his family heirloom because you didn’t connect it securely. It is also a stupid case to get a lawsuit in the yamen. In the end, maybe the seller will be reasonable and say that he is unlucky. The responsibility is half of the family... The buyer has no choice but to pay.

After the buyer gave the money and left, the seller laughed and opened the box next to it, and inside there were dozens of "heirlooms" of the same style...

He Jinyong can do business with Li San, it must have both vision and power. After all, ordinary people can't do things like selling stolen goods.

He Jinyong looked at the cup in his hand, his face changed from dull at first, gradually to last surprise, and then slowly turned dull again. Then he was about to speak when Fang Linyan took the lead:

"Boss He, I have a few words to say ahead."
