"It's ready."
Chu Li looked at Mu Yunjin, then turned around and walked towards the direction of the market.
Mu Yunjin got up and looked at the clear stream, and at Chu Li's back figure, her face was puzzled.
So, this time, coming to Zhang Zhou City, taking gold is just a by the way, but it is to deliberately test her?
Mu Yunjin wanted to go and slap her head, 'the impulse of the devil, ah, if she had just caught wind, she will not hide so long as she has been exposed so long ago.
But on second thought, exposed is exposed, Chu Li is a meticulous person, it is better not to beat around the bush with him.
Maybe she will come into trouble in the future and he will come to help.
Thinking so, Mu Yunjin's mood suddenly became much better, she quickened her pace, and went to Chu Li's side, she made a side glance towards Chu Li, pursed her lips, and for a moment there was silence.
Chu Li took Mu Yunjin to a house outside the city. As soon as she neared the house, Mu Yunjin saw the green horse and the red horse, whom they had ridden before, bowing their heads to graze in the courtyard.
The old man who was the first to greet them was feeding the horses with food and grass.
"Young Lord."
Huang Yan walked out of the door and bowed a salute when he saw Chu Li and Mu Yunjin coming in from outside the courtyard.
"En, what about the things?"
Chu Li looked at Huang Yan, and indifferently asked.
Huang Yan smiled and made a motion to move.
"Young Lord, if you please, everything is inside."
Hearing it, Chu Li agreed and walked into the inner room, toward the direction of the pavilion, Mu Yunjin followed Chu Li, she glanced at Huang Yan at the side with a careful look.
This man seems to be a pale-faced scholar, but he is actually a gambler. The important thing is, he seems to have known Chu Li and worked for him for a long time.
Oh, another weirdo.
Mu Yunjin had taken a few steps and thought it was just a small room. But there was an underground passage hidden in it.
"You wait outside."
Standing before the steps, Chu Li glanced at Huang Yan.
Huang Yan immediately understood and went out.
When there were only Chu Li and Mu Yunjin in the room, Mu Yunjin glanced at the dark underground passage and immediately wondered why Chu Li wanted to send away Huang Yan.
So she embarrassedly asked:
"Did you bring the jade pendant?"
"En."
Chu Li nodded, took out a jade that gave off moonlight from his sleeve, and threw it into Mu Yunjin's arms.
"You will illuminate it on the road."
Mu Yunjin took the jade pendant, looked up at the sky, and rolled her eyes.
"It's not as if I can't see, why let me take it?"
"Do you want to divide the gold?"
Chu Li raises an eyebrow.
"Want!"
Mu Yunjin held on to the jade, her fingers gently caressed the smooth jade, and walked to Chu Li's side, with the white light from the jade, she helped Chu Li illuminate the underground passage.
They walked down the stairs together, and when they reached the last step of the stairs, Mu Yunjin looked at the roadblock in front of her eyes, and took a jade dress, and shone around her.
So she spoke.
"Open the mechanism."
Chu Li glanced at Mu Yunjin and saw the calmness of her face, and his eyes showed a little appreciation and then he reached out and twisted the inlays in the wall.
The wall in front of him was split into two and moved to both sides automatically. Mu Yunjin pursed her lips and walked inside.
After stepping into the stone door, Mu Yunjin saw another flight of steps leading to the bottom. She could not help raising her eyebrows and teasing Chu Li.
"How much gold did you hide here?"
Chu Li slightly showed a faint smile, ignored Mu Yunjin's question, and continued to walk down the steps.
Mu Yunjin followed until the two people came to another stone door.
"Will there be an underground passage when we open this door?"
Mu Yunjin's arms crossed and she slightly twisted her eyebrows.
Chu Li shook his head gathered his qi. A purple light appeared in his palm. It gradually molded into a round ball. Then he raised his wrist, the purple light hit the stone door in front of him.
After the purple light came into contact, the stone door moved to both sides like the first door.
"Is this door sealed by you?"
Mu Yunjin can not help but think of the mountain in River Moon city, it is also sealed up by Chu Li, ordinary people cannot come near.
When her words fell, Mu Yunjin did not wait for Chu Li to speak. When Mu Yunjin walked into the stone door, she immediately exclaimed:
"Wow..."
Mu Yunjin immediately ran in, looked inside the stone door, and it was filled with boxes, her eyes brightened, she opened a box, and the dazzling gold is exposed.
Several boxes were opened in succession, all of them full gold.
Looking at this room full of gold, Mu Yunjin with some exclamation, turned her eyes at the door where Chu Li is standing.
"Where are these from?"
After a long pause, Mu Yunjin asked again.
"Did Huang Yan help you win it?"
Chu Li looked at Mu Yunjin, his cold and indifferent voice sounded in this quiet room.
"That black market, all the casinos, and pawnshops are under ben huangzi's name."
"What?!"
Mu Yunjin is stunned. She seems to think she misheard.
"Are you kidding?"
"No."
Chu Li wore a long face and faintly replied.
Mu Yunjin, after hearing Chu Li's affirmative reply, bit her lips, she seems to be in disbelief, she recalled the black market, the gambling houses, and pawnshops had taken up almost the whole street, but unexpectedly they were all industries under Chu Li.
Although she knew that Chu Li has some support behind him, she did not expect it to be gambling houses and pawnshops.
These gold are all profits from the gambling houses and pawnshops?
Mu Yunjin has sorted out her mood, and with a surprised face, she looked at Chu Li.
Chu Li nodded slightly, took a few steps, then picked up a piece of gold and put it in his hand to play, looking at the box in the room with his eyes.
"There are about 100,000 taels of gold here, this month's profit."
"Then all these are won from those gamblers?"
Mu Yunjin thought of the people who had just been in the teahouse, and then looked at the gold piled up here, sighed in her heart, no wonder those people were coming so desperate!
"Those people are insatiable, and all of these are consequences they only have themselves to blame."
Chu Li threw down the gold in his hand.
Mu Yunjin raised her eyebrows slightly and nodded approvingly.
"Yes, small gambling is easy, big gambling hurts, and those people deserve it!"
In the end, Mu Yunjin approached Chu Li, raised her chin, and looked at him closely.
"Then, you said there was one hundred thousand gold here. How much can I get?"
When Chu Li heard her, he gave a low smile, dropping his gaze to look at Mu Yunjin.
"As much as you can take."
"Really?"
Mu Yunjin raised her eyebrows, and then felt how she became a miser and then thought about it, stretched out a finger.
"Then I want ten thousand gold."
"Just like last time, I would like you to deposit it as a silver banknote for me, so that I can keep it."
Chu Li looked at Mu Yunjin's tsundere expression at this time, and laughed a little, then warmly said.
"En, ben huangzi promise you."
……….
After walking out of the basement, Mu Yunjin handed Chu Li the jade pendant in her hand. At this time, she was in a good mood. When she saw Huan Yan standing in the doorway, she was not stingy with her smile.
She walked outside the house, took a breath of fresh air, and still had some strange feeling when she caught a glimpse of the direction of the black market.
So, Chu Li runs casinos and pawnshops on the black market. If the royal family knows about this, she fears it will cause a lot of trouble.
Mu Yunjin cannot help but think of Chu Qingqiang, the Fifth Princess is behind the brothel business, is it possible that Chu Li also has such a nature?
Thinking of it, a shadow in front of her blocked her light.
As soon as Mu Yunjin looked up, she saw Huang Yan standing in front of her, continuously looking at her, after a long time Huang Yan showed a smile.
"So you are the Young Lord's newly married wife ah?"
"At length, you seem to be a good enough match for our Young Lord, but just don't know about your moral character."
Huang Yan touched his chin and opened his mouth to talk.
Mu Yunjin smiled softly, glancing at Chu Li and then at Huang Yan.
"How long have you been following him?"
"That is... a secret. It's not convenient to tell you now."
Huang Yan did a hush movement and then turned around to walk to Chu Li's side.
"Young Lord, these two days, we found that people from the Dong Lin have appeared on the black market, but we only found that they are staying in one of the inns, there is nothing peculiar."
Huang Yan made a report.
Upon mention of Dong Lin Country, Chu Li's eyes sank slightly, and a fierce look flashed by his eyes.
"Keep monitoring."
"Yes, Young Lord."
When Huang Yan's words fell, the old man who had been feeding the horses came over and made a formal statement to Chu Li.
"In the Painted Fan restaurant in the street market, there were also people from Nan Ting country, living there these two days."
"What about Bei Ming country?"
Chu Li looked at the old man.
"We haven't found the people of Bei Ming country yet, but our news has been released for a long time. It should not be long before the people of Bei Ming country will also appear in Zhang Zhou City."
The old man replied.
Mu Yunjin sat in a chair beside her and listened to all the conversations. She could not help but raise her eyebrows in surprise. What was the big thing that could attract people from the other three countries?
Is it the same thing that he has always been looking for?
With this in mind, Mu Yunjin's curiosity that was suppressed is once again revived. What could it be that had Chu Li go looking for it for so long.
After Huang Yan and the old man dispersed, Mu Yunjin obviously felt a low-pressure Chu Li has been emitting.
"What did you do to attract people from the other Three Kingdoms?"
Mu Yunjin looked towards Chu Li, and inquired.
Chu Li took a look at Mu Yunjin, his eyes flashed a deep meaning, frowned, and spoke slowly.
"You don't have to know too much, it's not good for you."
Mu Yunjin heard and then cried out. She put her hand over her stomach.
"I'm hungry. Where can we eat?"
"Street market."
Chu Li replied.
Mu Yunjin got up and was about to go out when she saw Chu Li standing still.
"Aren't you going?"
Chu Li shook his head.
"Ben huangzi has something to do, so you can go by yourself."
Then he added:
"You are now very skilled so ben huangzi is not worried you will have a mishap."
Listening to this slightly teasing remark, Mu Yunjin flattened her mouth and glared at Chu Li.
"Hah, this lady possesses remarkable abilities, of course, it is not so easy to meet with a mishap!"
