Black market fishing

A hunter seeing plump prey, that kind of joy, only for the prey to escape just as he was about to taste the meat—that feeling must be quite infuriating.

Zhao Dongchuan naturally didn't take them seriously; they were just a bunch of weaklings. If he truly wanted to, he could eliminate them silently, but in China, it's best to keep a low profile when possible.

Zhao Dongchuan didn't want to let them off easily; that would be too good for them.

He'd let them stew for a few days, wait until they slowly lost hope, then reappear to rekindle their hope, and then crush it again, letting them experience despair!!!

That would be incredibly satisfying!

Zhao Dongchuan chuckled.

Originally, Zhao Dongchuan had planned to return to Shuangshui Village these past two days, but he didn't expect this incident to occur.

In fact, he had a premonition that over time, people would definitely get jealous.

How does that saying go? "When profit reaches 10%, people will begin to stir; when profit reaches 50%, people will dare to take risks; when profit reaches 100%, they will dare to trample all laws of mankind!".

Being targeted was only a matter of time.

He just didn't expect his first opponent to be a gang.

That day, Zhao Dongchuan greeted Teacher Jia Bing, saying he was going back to Shuangshui Village to continue gathering material and inspiration.

Then he went back to his dorm, packed simply, putting all the necessary items into his spatial storage.

He changed his clothes, put on his system glasses, slung a satchel over his shoulder, and headed towards the black market!

He was going fishing!!!

...

Zhao Dongchuan, familiar with the route, entered the market, looked around, found a secluded spot, took out a tablecloth from his bag, spread it out, and then took out several watches from his bag, displaying them one by one.

Before long, he felt that he was being watched. Some people, both openly and covertly, surrounded him, observing him in the shadows.

Soon after, his stall became lively. Many customers came to his stall to inquire about prices. It seemed that the continuous sales during this period had spread the reputation of electronic watches in the market, no wonder some people were jealous.

In about two hours, Zhao Dongchuan sold each watch for prices ranging from 160 to 180.

Once the watches were sold, Zhao Dongchuan naturally folded up the tablecloth, put it back in his bag, and prepared to leave.

At this moment, a scar-faced man with a fierce expression blocked him.

"Brother, you look new here, first time?" the scar-faced man asked.

"Yes, I haven't been here many times. May I ask what you need?" Zhao Dongchuan smiled slightly.

"Hahaha, no need for guidance, I was just asking. Take care ~ take care!" the scar-faced man laughed loudly.

Zhao Dongchuan ignored him. In the market, people generally didn't break the rules; otherwise, if things got chaotic, it would be difficult for everyone to do business.

But once outside the black market, they wouldn't care, and perhaps they even had a hand in it.

Zhao Dongchuan, clutching his money and carrying his bag, confidently walked towards the exit.

Before long, Zhao Dongchuan left the market and headed straight for Beiguan.

As he expected, a crowd of people followed him. These people didn't care about being discreet anymore; they directly revealed themselves and trailed behind him. He took a step, and they took a step, as if afraid he would run away.

Of course, Zhao Dongchuan had many ways to shake them off, but he was luring the snake out of its hole, so he had to put on a show.

He pretended to be flustered, running around like a headless chicken.

Just as Zhao Dongchuan ran headlong into an alley, several people appeared in front, clearly blocking his path.

Now he was surrounded both front and back; he was trapped!

"Kid, our boss wants to talk to you. Let's go!" a burly man with a full beard sneered. This burly man was clearly their leader.

He was quite arrogant! It made one want to punch him.

Zhao Dongchuan restrained his itching hands.

He simply said with a blank expression, "Lead the way!!!"

At this, the burly man was somewhat surprised. This fellow was so arrogant, no, wait, he was so calm.

Hmm, interesting. Most people would be trembling with fear by now, but this young man looked completely composed.

So, the bearded man led the way, with several burly men surrounding them from behind to prevent his escape. Soon, they arrived in front of a low house.

The man leading the way knocked on the door with a series of long and short taps, like a secret code, and then the door opened.

"Qiang Ge!" a butler-like person opened the door and greeted him.

"The boss is in the main hall; he wants you all to go straight in!"

The bearded man nodded, said nothing, and led Zhao Dongchuan forward.

Zhao Dongchuan hadn't expected this group to be so well-organized. It seemed their organization was quite large. Could he have run into some old-societyJianghupeople?

Zhao Dongchuan pondered inwardly. Knowing the cause of the matter, he no longer had the patience to argue with them.

"What if I don't agree?"

"Hahahahaha, not agree? Then you'll have to ask my brothers if their knives are fast enough!" Hei Lao Da chuckled sinisterly.
