I became the Counterpart of the Winner in a Period Novel-Chapter 318 - 291: Zhao Family Five Tigers 2
Jiang Mingyue immediately released her spiritual power, but in the darkness, she couldn’t see clearly, though there was definitely a group of people.
"Brother, should we turn off the flashlight?"
"Let’s turn it off for now."
On the other side, Jiang Zhenzhu and Ning Yan had come to make a delivery. After their eggs were intercepted on the way to Shangfeng Village last time, the two acted more cautiously and stopped going there. They found that they didn’t need to go so far; there were opportunities everywhere on the outskirts of the city.
For example, the people they were dealing with tonight were introduced through Ning Yan’s connections. They were buying antique porcelain and offering a very tempting price. In just a few days, she and Ning Yan had earned more than a thousand yuan. Now, holding onto these things would only invite trouble, so they might as well sell them at a low price, making the acquisition very smooth.
Of course, no one showed their true face; they all wrapped themselves carefully and went to special places to trade privately.
She and Ning Yan bought them from those places and then resold them to this group. She and Ning Yan speculated that locals wouldn’t take such risks at this time, so they guessed these people were buying to ship overseas. The country’s porcelain has always been world-class and is beloved worldwide.
"Wait, there’s someone." This time, it was Jiang Zhenzhu who spoke first. Having done this multiple times, she was very alert. Since it was introduced by Ning Yan’s friend, they showed their true faces to each other, hoping not to be discovered by outsiders.
But the other party seemed to think she was overreacting, "Who could be here?" and then asked his men to switch to a more powerful flashlight.
Jiang Zhenzhu listened again, but there seemed to be no sound anymore.
"Could I have really heard wrong?" she asked Ning Yan.
Ning Yan just looked at her and then spoke: "I’ve been keeping an eye on the surroundings and haven’t heard any noise. Besides, George arranged for someone to keep watch. If there was any situation, they would have sounded the whistle long ago."
If Jiang Mingyue got closer, she would find that these people used light-blocking fabric to cover the flashlight beams, making it pitch black from outside the tent.
This was also one of the reasons for their boldness.
Jiang Zhenzhu was still uneasy, but if she just waited a little longer, once the transaction was done, she would get a large sum of money.
Well, people! Faced with easy profit, many are willing to take risks.
"Mr. George, what do you think about the goods we’ve brought today?"
This was a subtle way to prompt for pricing.
The person called George wasn’t as exotic as his name suggested. He was a fellow countryman with yellow skin and black eyes, just like Jiang Zhenzhu and Ning Yan.
But he had overseas connections. He and the other party had only recently started cooperating and didn’t know each other before. But in business, as long as there’s profit, nothing else matters.
Of course, they were all first-class treasures, but George couldn’t say that.
He deliberately made things difficult, "This stuff is very ordinary! The boss upstairs wants top-tier items, preferably exclusive to emperors. The price is negotiable, but this..." George shook his head disdainfully, as if this pile wasn’t thousand-year-old porcelain that could bring him immense fortune, but random farmer-made bowls and plates.
Jiang Zhenzhu didn’t quite believe it; she sensed the businessman wanted to bargain. She and Ning Yan had a clear understanding of every item they acquired and were about to argue back when Ning Yan stopped her.
Ning Yan said, "Then what price can you offer? If it’s appropriate, we can make the deal today. Of course, if it’s not suitable, we can find someone else. I don’t believe you’re the only one profiting from this business."
This made George a bit unhappy, but he had to admit they were speaking the truth.
Fine, he couldn’t squeeze them too much; the other side was waiting to deliver the goods!
Just as they were negotiating, a group of people suddenly slipped in silently.
"Don’t move, everyone squat down in place."
Jiang Mingyue didn’t expect to see a good show. Jiang Zhenzhu and Ning Yan’s good days hadn’t lasted long; they were about to go back in.
At the same time, she was grateful she always dealt with Pan Zhoucong, becoming more aware of his strength; otherwise, they wouldn’t have remained safe for so long.
However, this was too coincidental!
Jiang Mingyue thought she should ask Brother Xie to investigate later.
As they came over, they just happened to see Jiang Zhenzhu being taken out by force.
When their eyes met, all the hatred in Jiang Zhenzhu’s body was suddenly directed at Jiang Mingyue.
She shouted sharply, "It’s you, it must be you. You scoundrel. Jiang Mingyue, I curse you to die a horrible death. You were the one who ratted us out, weren’t you? Why? Couldn’t you leave well enough alone? Why did you have to harm me? Is it just because I became a city person and you had to return to the countryside? Haha! It’s just your bad luck. Even if I’m not Dad’s biological daughter, I’ve still taken root in the city, and now I’m a city resident.
