The two of them were sowhat panicked, their bodies trembling involuntarily.

The car drove along a remote dirt road for an indeterminate length of ti, finally erging from the jungle.

The roads here were really convoluted, and the surrounding magnetic field was so strong that even Chen Yu might not have been able to navigate through it.

Entering the small town from the outside required a bit of luck.

After driving for about half an hour, the car finally reached a small city.

Judging by the local customs and architectural style, it should be in the Central Plains area.

No sooner had the three of them arrived when a dozen or so burly n ca out to et them.

The previous two n, as if grasping at straws, hurried over.

"Brothers, let's take this kid down!"

With a loud shout, over a dozen people surrounded them, and soone even picked up a weapon from nearby.

Chen Yu appeared unconcerned, his body flickered, and he was soon beside the two n.

"You two really have short mories, forgetting the pain once the wound heals. Have you forgotten how I caught you?"

One of the n swallowed and turning around with a forced smile, looked at Chen Yu.

"Big brother, it's our fault, we got a bit impulsive just now! This place is also our turf, please move inside a bit, we'll arrange a welco feast right away."

Chen Yu didn't say much and walked straight inside.

The dozen or so n stood there, eyes full of astonishnt.

They had no idea how Chen Yu had gotten there, only seeing a streak of light flash by.

Inside the modestly bustling inn, Chen Yu sat steadily.

The two n from before hastily sat down beside him.

"Sir, what exactly did you an by 'making a fortune' just now? Can you give us so hints?"

Chen Yu picked up the teacup on the table and drained it in one gulp.

"If I'm not mistaken, the items you collection from the town are sold through a fixed channel, and the profits you get to keep are minimal!"

The two n froze, staring at Chen Yu with an indescribable look.

Every trade they made was recorded in their personal accounts, things like fixed channels and profits couldn't be known unless one had seen their ledger.

As they puzzled over this, two business cards suddenly appeared in Chen Yu's hand.

"I must say you two are quite lucky to have found such a lucrative spot, but in the ordinary world, you're just small fry, utterly unable to maximize the value."

The two n stood up abruptly, each grabbing one of Chen Yu's arms.

"Sir, you understand us so well, please enlighten us."

Although they were visibly excited on the surface, inside they were terrified to the extre.

The business cards Chen Yu was holding had always been kept in the innermost pocket of their clothing.

If he could so easily produce the business cards, he could just as easily take their lives.

At this point, they had no other choice but to obediently follow Chen Yu's instructions.

"There's a marketplace in the city!" Chen Yu put down the business cards, "After we eat, you'll have to take there."

Zhang Hu and Li Si were utterly bewildered.

Chen Yu seed to have never been to this place before, yet he knew about the existence of the trading market.

This place was incredibly secret; ever since its establishnt, it had always been underground. Any treasures coming into the small town could only be traded there.

After a brief mont of stunned silence, Zhang Hu imdiately instructed the boy outside to serve the food.

By evening, the three of them arrived at an unfinished building on the east side of the city.

On the surface, it looked shabby and broken-down, but if one observed carefully, one would discover a colorful lantern at each entrance.

The three individuals ca to an entrance where Li Si verified his fingerprint under the colorful lantern.

Then a door slowly opened, and the thick scent of fireworks instantly assailed their nostrils.

Chen Yu was choked by the sll, coughing violently as he instinctively covered his nose and mouth.

Zhang Hu smiled apologetically, "I forgot to tell you that not only is this an underground trading market, it's also an underground shopping mall! Inside, there are many specialty foods. We'll take you to try so right away."

Chen Yu didn't say much, simply scanned the situation ahead with the system, and then headed straight down.

Before long, the trio arrived in front of an antique stall that looked rather old.

An old man, well over fifty, sat in front of the stall, engrossed in a book, seemingly unconcerned with the passersby around him.

Even when Chen Yu crouched down, the old man maintained the sa posture.

"Old sir, we have so goods we would like to dispose of here. I wonder what price you can offer."

The old man flipped a page in his book, "That depends on what you've brought. If it's through regular channels, sell at the original price. If you can't even explain the provenance, then I can only buy and sell at one-tenth of the price."

Before coming here, Chen Yu had already scanned the brain information of Zhang Hu and Li Si through the system and knew the rules of this place.

The previous question was just to confirm.

Actually, every ti Zhang Hu and Li Si ca here to trade, they were always incredibly submissive. They wouldn't dare tell others about the existence of the town, or their windfall would be cut off.

A smile on his face, Chen Yu took out a golden turtle and placed it on the stall.

"A Prefecture Governor's Turtle-Shaped Seal from the early Eastern Han Dynasty! I wonder what it's worth here?"

Only then did the old man close his book and examined the golden turtle carefully.

"It's been years since I've seen such a rare item! I've already told you the rules here, you must clarify the origin of this item."

Chen Yu's mouth curled slightly upward, "Family heirloom!"

The old man's eyes narrowed slightly, clearly disbelieving.

He extended his hand to hold the golden turtle, scrutinizing it carefully, then set it back down.

"The item is indeed nice, but I can only offer you one-tenth of the price unless you can produce a certificate for this object!"

Chen Yu almost laughed. It was common knowledge that more than ninety percent of antique transactions couldn't possibly co with certificates unless it was at a formal auction.

The old man clearly wanted to take advantage of him.

"Old man, do you really think I don't understand the rules here? You might be able to deceive these two simpletons! I took a quick look just now, there are at least ten buyers like you. If you're unwilling to buy, I can easily go to another stall."

The old man suddenly burst into loud laughter.

"Didn't they tell you? Everyone on this street working a stall is under . If you deal with them, you'll get even less money."

Chen Yu shook his head, "I'm not talking about them, but the woman standing over there at the counter, drinking milk tea!"

The old man's pupils dilated suddenly, glancing in that direction instinctively, his complexion turning anxious.
