Chapter 42 The ancient sea fair!

The next day, when Xiao Chen went out for activities, he met an acquaintance on the roadside.

In other words, the other party has been waiting for him here.

"Second Master Cao, why are you here?"

The visitor was none other than Cao Zhenhua.

Cao Zhenhua said respectfully: "Mr. Xiao, I have been waiting for you here for a long time."

"Did Zhao Lang tell you?" Xiao Chen asked.

Last time I told Zhao Lang that I was not allowed to go to his apartment to look for him without his permission.

Cao Zhenhua obviously knew this rule, so he clearly knew where he lived, but he still waited here.

"Tell me, why are you so anxious to find me?"

Cao Zhenhua hurriedly said: "I heard from Boss Peng that sir, you need that kind of rare medicinal herbs with high age, and you also need spiritual jade and antiques?"

Xiao Chen glanced at Cao Zhenhua and said with a half-smile, "Do you have these things?"

"I don't often collect these things, but there is a large-scale trade fair in Guhai City these days. Spiritual jade antiques, rare medicinal herbs, unworldly treasures, etc. will all appear. If sir, you are interested, you can come with me.

One view.”

"Guhai City?"

"Yes, it is at the junction of Jiangnan and Jiangbei. Of course, it still belongs to Jiangnan Province in name."

Xiao Chen pondered: "How long will the transaction last?"

"The trade fair started last night and was supposed to last for three days. We are going there today and there are still two days left."

"Wait a minute, I'll make a call first!"

Xiao Chen walked aside and dialed Xiao Yufei's phone number.

Xiao Yufei was on a business trip and seemed to be still sleeping in the hotel at the moment. She asked in a lazy voice: "Xiao Chen, why did you call me?"

"When will you come back?"

"I'll probably go back in the evening. The work here is over."

"Well, I'm going out for two or three days!"

"Where to go?"

"Guhai City!"

"Why are you going to Guhai City?" Xiao Yufei was surprised.

"Something's wrong!" Xiao Chen replied with two words.

Xiao Yufei rolled her eyes and said helplessly: "Then take care of yourself and bring your cell phone with you. I may call you at any time."

"Okay, hang up!"

Xiao Chen hung up the phone and returned to Cao Zhenhua.

"gentlemen……"

"Let's go!"

"Okay, get in the car!"

Cao Zhenhua invited Xiao Chen into the car and was very excited.

Two days ago, he saw Peng Chao give Xiao Chen a cardboard box. He specifically asked Peng Chao about it afterwards and learned that Xiao Chen wanted to collect spiritual jade, herbal medicine and the like.

It happened that there was a large-scale trade fair in Guhai City these days, which was very lively, so he wanted to try to invite Xiao Chen, but to his surprise, Xiao Chen actually agreed.

Xiao Chen is an innate grandmaster. If he can win over Xiao Chen, Cao Zhenhua will surely soar to the sky. Even the Southern Boxing Club will act based on his expression.



Half a day later, the two arrived at Guhai City.

Cao Zhenhua said flatteringly: "Sir, few people come out during the trade fair during the day, and it is only lively at night. How about I take you to the Shi's house first?"

"Historian?" Xiao Chen asked doubtfully, "What historian?"

"The Shijia is the leading family in Guhai City. The president and young president of the Nanquan Club are members of the Shijia. Therefore, it is okay to classify the Nanquan Club as the Shijia."

"Oh, I remember you said last time that your Cao family wants to marry the young president of the Nanquan Society, which means marrying the Shi family, right?"

"Yes, that's right, it's my niece and the young president who I mentioned to you last time."

Xiao Chen suddenly smiled and said: "Second Master Cao, you tricked me into coming to Guhai City. Your real purpose was not the trade fair, right?"

When Cao Zhenhua heard this, he said with some panic: "Sir, I understand that this villain did not intend to lie to you!"

"Okay, just kidding. Regardless of your selfishness or not, I am indeed very interested in this trade fair."

Xiao Chen thought for a while and asked again:

"You want me to come to your niece's wedding?"

Cao Zhenhua said awkwardly: "I would like to ask your husband to be the officiant."

The Cao family originally wanted to increase their influence through marriage with the Shi family. If they could invite another innate master to preside over the marriage, it would undoubtedly be more prosperous and even famous in Lanning and Guhai cities.

"It's not necessary to officiate at the wedding. I'm not in the mood, but since I'm here, it doesn't hurt to join in the fun."

Cao Zhenhua was overjoyed when he heard this: "Thank you sir for the honor!"

"When will the wedding be held?"

"Two days later, it happened to be the day the trade fair ended."

"The timing is a coincidence!" Xiao Chen smiled.

It must be said that Cao Zhenhua is very smart. If he directly invited Xiao Chen to attend the wedding, Xiao Chen would definitely refuse due to his character.

But now that we are in Guhai City, it makes sense to drop by and join in the fun.

"I'll go to Shijia after the trade fair is over. I'll find a hotel to stay in for the time being."

Xiao Chen knew that if he went to the Shi family now, there would probably be a bunch of people fawning over him and just causing trouble for him.

"Okay, everything will follow your instructions, sir!"

After receiving Xiao Chen's affirmative reply, Cao Zhenhua was already satisfied.

He was thinking about the wedding in two days. He had invited Xiao Chen, a young man, to the VIP seat, and the envious and complimentary eyes of all the major families made him feel a little restless.

He wanted to invite people like Peng Chao, Zhao Biao, and Miao Qingfeng, because they knew Xiao Chen's identity and could also create momentum.

Cao Zhenhua took care of it himself, serving Xiao Chen and making all arrangements for food, clothing, housing and transportation.

But as evening approached, Cao Zhenhua received a call and seemed a little anxious.

"Sir, something happened to my niece. I have to go back. You see..."

Xiao Chen said: "You go back, I can attend the trade fair alone. When the trade fair ends, I will go to the wedding venue by myself."

"Thank you for your understanding, sir!"

Cao Zhenhua said, handed Xiao Chen something, and left in a hurry.

Xiao Chen rested for a while in the hotel and waited until nightfall before setting off for the trade fair location.

In fact, the trade fair is not a large one, it is medium-sized at most, but it is also very lively. From the south square to the north square, there are almost all crowds.

Xiao Chen shuttled among the crowd, occasionally checking out roadside stalls, but it was hard to find anything he liked.

"Brother, come and see my peerless sword. It is indestructible and can cut iron like clay!"

A man pulled Xiao Chen to sell.

Xiao Chen doubted: "Is it true?"

"Of course it's true. If you don't believe me, you can try it."

"Okay, then you pull out your sword and try to chop me!" Xiao Chen pointed to his chest seriously, "Cut from here!"

The man was stunned for a long time, and suddenly his face turned cold, "Go, go, go, you're crazy, you're hindering my business!"

When Xiao Chen heard this, an imperceptible burst of Qi came out of his fingers.

Buzz!

The sword in the man's hand trembled suddenly, but because the sword had a scabbard, no other abnormality was seen.

"what happened?"

The man was shocked and suspicious, and firmly grasped the sword in his hand. Of course, he didn't have the ability to tell that it was Xiao Chen who was up to something.

"This sword of yours is worth a hundred at most, take it!"

Xiao Chen threw a hundred yuan on the stall, then turned and left.

The man was stunned for a long time again. He felt that his thinking could not keep up with Xiao Chen's jumping behavior.

He still had some idea of ​​the quality of the sword. Although it must have cost more than a hundred dollars, it really wasn't of much value.

But what does Xiao Chen mean by giving away a hundred yuan and not asking for his sword?

"Hehe, it seems that when you meet a fool, you just throw away your money!"

The man smiled happily, saying that if you don't take the hundred yuan, you will get nothing. He finally gained something tonight.

At this time, two young men came over to inquire.

"Boss, are you selling this sword?"

"Sell, of course!"

The young man said: "Isn't it a good sword? Pull it out and let's take a look?"

"no problem!"

The man agreed and pulled out the ancient sword.

However, the next moment, he looked at the broken sword with only half of it pulled out, and was dumbfounded.

"Damn, you're trying to fool us with a broken sword, are you looking for a fight?"

The two young men left angrily.

"What's going on here? How did the sword break?"

The man looked confused and didn't know why.
