The sky has just darkened, and all the lanterns on Chenghuang Temple Street are in full bloom. The bustling crowds and endless shops along the street have brought together the most prosperous human atmosphere of this super metropolis.
Woof!
Tyke happily walked on the sidewalk with his short legs, so happy that he almost flew up.
Zuo Yi took it from Hangzhou to Shanghai and let it go to the crime scene. After catching the real culprit, he threw it in the car and ignored it. He didn't let it out for a walk until tonight.
But it was so boring!
Unfortunately, the dog leash tied around his neck was still in Zuo Yi's hand, and the foodie Tai couldn't even think about it. However, its cute and cute appearance attracted the attention of many passers-by.
Many beauties even saw stars in their eyes.
"Boss!"
Zuo Yi and Tai Ke had just walked to the gate of the Chenghuang Temple when they saw Zuoqiu Yongjie waiting there.
"Boss, haven't you had dinner yet?"
Zuoqiu Yongjie said with a smile: "There is a good restaurant next door, let's have a meal first?"
Woof!
Before Zuo Yi could answer, Taike was already extremely thirsty after hearing the words "eat" and "restaurant"!
"Ah!"
Zuoqiu Yongjie was surprised: "Is this Junior Sister's puppy?"
Of course, the junior sister is Bao'er. He met the little girl when he was attending classes at Tianqi Academy. Because he considered himself Zuo Yi's disciple, he called Bao'er the junior junior sister.
Zuo Yi nodded: "Let's eat first."
The restaurant that Zuo Qiu Yongjie took Zuo Yi to was in an alley. Anyone who was not familiar with it could not find it. Although the place was small, the local cuisine it served was extremely authentic. The thick oily red sauce was mellow and delicious, which made Zuo Yi enjoy it.
Very satisfied.
After drinking and eating, it was already past seven in the evening, and we were just in time to rush to the night market in the Chenghuang Temple.
Under the guidance of Zuoqiu Yongjie, Zuo Yi led Tike through twists and turns in a group of ancient buildings, and finally passed through a long eaves corridor and arrived in front of a mahogany gate.
There were two tough-looking men in sunglasses standing in front of the door. Zuo Yi felt the extraordinary fluctuations emanating from them, which actually reached the super level!
Somewhat interesting.
Two super extraordinary people are responsible for guarding the gate. You can imagine the quality of Limiao Market. No wonder Zuoqiu Yongjie highly recommends it.
Zuoqiu Yongjie took out a golden card and handed it to the other party.
A tough man stared at the card, raised his hand and pressed lightly on the stand of the sunglasses he was wearing. A flash of red light flashed on the surface of the lens, and then there was a "beep" sound.
"Hello, Mr. Zuoqiu, please come inside."
The tough man who had checked his identity bowed and saluted, and another man in sunglasses immediately pushed open the heavy mahogany door.
There is a cave behind the door, and a dark path paved with rain-flowered stones leads to the depths of the courtyard.
"Zeng Hongtang lived here in his later years..."
Zuoqiu Yongjie introduced: "He also died here, and it is still owned by the Zeng family."
Zeng Hongtang was a minister of Gu Ming in the Great Xia Dynasty more than two hundred years ago. His achievements in his life were shining, and he assisted three emperors successively. His talent, learning and moral character were highly praised by the world, and he was also one of the historical celebrities born in Shanghai.
Walking out of the path, the front suddenly becomes clear.
I saw a five-story pavilion standing in the middle of the wide courtyard. The carved beams and painted buildings were brightly lit. There were many tables and tables around the pavilion, and a lamp pole was inserted next to each table.
All the tables are owned, and they are filled with various things for people to appreciate and choose from. At least three to four hundred people gathered in the courtyard, and many people came in and out of the pavilion.
This is obviously the inner night market of Chenghuang Temple!
What surprised Zuo Yi was that most of the stall owners and customers were extraordinary people. They emitted various extraordinary fluctuations, filling the space with an extremely complex energy aura.
With a quick glance, Zuo Yi discovered two B-level and dozens of super extraordinarys.
Shanghai and Hainan are indeed the land of crouching tigers, hidden dragons!
Although the place here is much smaller than the West Field, the number and proportion of extraordinary people completely overwhelmed the latter.
"In front is the Cangzhen Pavilion..."
Zuoqiu Yongjie said: "It used to be used to store the antique calligraphy and paintings of the Zeng family. If you want to buy good things, you go there. The higher the floor, the better. It guarantees that the goods are genuine, but it is basically impossible to pick them up."
After a pause, he continued: "You have to have good eyesight when choosing things at the stalls outside. It's your ability to pick out the leaks. If you pick them up, you will be unlucky. The threshold here is very high. You can't get in, and the people who set up stalls are not called stalls.
Lord, call me the banker."
Zuo Yi knew that what Zuoqiu Yongjie meant was that no one here would deliberately make assumptions and scams, but there would be no regrets in buying and selling voluntarily.
Zhou Hong will definitely like it.
Zuo Yi secretly thought, but he estimated that this guy with "Platinum Eyes" might not dare to cheat here.
"Boss."
Zuoqiu Yongjie asked: "Should we go to Zangzhen Pavilion first, or walk around outside?"
"Let's take a walk outside first."
The area of the courtyard was limited, and the number of stalls that could be set up was naturally limited, so no one was showing up with tattered gadgets to fill the gap. The various strange gadgets placed on the table opened Zuo Yi's horizons a little.
There are sacrificial vessels from the Shang Dynasty, jade burial objects unearthed from Han tombs, wooden statues of gods from the Tislan Dynasty, ancient Sanskrit books from India, and even holy objects from the Cross, all of which are of great origin.
Of course, it is difficult to distinguish the authenticity from the mixed products. Most of the dealers are aloof and do not take the initiative to shout and sell. They look like they want to buy but not buy.
Zuo Yi stopped in front of one of the stalls, pointed at a dark brown wooden charm and asked, "How do you sell this?"
The banker was a middle-aged man. He did not immediately answer Zuo Yi's inquiry. Instead, he quickly glanced at Zuoqiu Yongjie next to him, with a shrewd look flashing in his eyes.
After pondering for a while, the banker said slowly: "This is a witchcraft charm from the Miao border. It has a history of thousands of years. It is a truly good thing."
Zuo Yi watched him pretending to be cool quietly.
The dealer smiled and raised a finger on his right hand.
"Ten million?"
Zuoqiu Yongjie sneered: "Why don't you go and grab it?"
The gestures made by the banker are very particular. Different angles of the finger pointing represent different prices. He only learned the trick after coming here twice.
Regarding Zuoqiu Yongjie's ridicule, the banker laughed and said nothing.
The reason why he offered such a high price was precisely because he knew Zuoqiu Yongjie and knew that this was an owner who was not short of money.
Although Zuoqiu Yongjie is famous in Shanghai Beach, and although the Zuoqiu family is extremely powerful, the rules of buying and selling here do not depend on status. As long as it is within the scope of the rules, he really does not have much fear towards Zuoqiu Yongjie.
If Zuoqiu Yongjie dares to cause trouble, he will never be able to step through the door here again!
Because the night market in the Shanghai City God’s Temple is owned by the Zeng family, the Zeng clan who produced Zeng Hongtang!——
