After reading my mind, all the villains in the family are in trouble

This was a big deal. Not only Luo Yucheng, but also the black market of Pingzhou City, another chaotic city next to her, was under her control.

Compared with the materials business, it seems that places like the black market make Tao Qi more comfortable.

Even though she only shows half of her face, her sassiness and charm are almost universal for both men and women.

Leng Lu did not touch the people from Wuji Pavilion in Luo Yucheng, but transferred his subordinates who used to run material routes in the outer city to Tao Qi and mixed them into the black market.

These subordinates are different from the subordinates of Bei Yucheng and Luo Yucheng. They used to travel all over the world and used the identity of retail merchants, which made them impossible to trace and very safe.

On the surface, Tao Qi's identity is mysterious, and few people know the details.

Even the nobleman who knew her identity only thought that she entered the black market after leaving Zuifeng Tower and Wuji Pavilion, which had nothing to do with Ning Zhishui.

Only Ning Zhishui, Leng Lu and Hua Jiaqing knew that Tao Qi was absolutely loyal to Ning Zhishui. She represented Ning Zhishui's secret forces, but outsiders did not know it.

"How is Hou Huang doing during this period?" Ning Zhishui asked Leng Lu.

"There was a fire in the backyard, and he was devastated." Leng Lu's voice didn't know whether it was a joke or a hint of envy, "Even if Tao Qi saved his life, detoxified him, and the backyard was calmed down, he doesn't have much time left. ”

Hou Huang was the nobleman whose life was saved by Tao Qi and thus handed over the black market to her.

Hou Huang is a title commonly used by outsiders. His real name is Hou Chen. He is the emperor of two underground black markets in Chaos City and has been in charge for more than five hundred years.

When he was young, this man was handsome and charming. He did not marry a wife, but he had 36 concubines in total.

Well... nearly half of them are male concubines.

His house was larger than the one the Lord Zhou lived in, and was extremely luxurious. His concubines also made great pomp when they went out, attracting crowds of people to watch almost every time they appeared.

There is no way, he has really good vision, and the people in the backyard are really eye-catching.

It's just that Hou Huang has suffered some physical decline in recent years. It is said that the root cause of the illness caused by being assassinated by his opponent when he was young has worsened. In just a few decades, he has become visibly older.

Misfortunes never come singly. As his health deteriorated, there was no trouble in the business, but a fire started in the backyard.

There are many bloody stories here. There are love triangles and even fights between concubines. Some Hongxing cheats with others, and some want to kill the prince and seize the property...

In short, Houhuang went through various backstabbings, and almost died once or twice, only to be saved by Tao Qi in time.

I have to say that this is fate.

However, although Tao Qi saved him, the hidden wounds in his body recurred, and he was injured by the people in the backyard because of anger. After all, he didn't have much time left.

It was probably because of this calamity that he understood something, so Houhuang killed and dismissed him. Now there is no one in the backyard.

He was looking for an alchemist to treat his injuries, hoping to live for a few more years.

To be honest, he was not harsh on his concubines, but was very tolerant.

Some of those people were attracted by his appearance, some were orphans with nowhere to go, some were rescued by him and volunteered to sacrifice themselves, some were greedy for money and followed him voluntarily... none of them were forced by him.

He is very generous with money, and people in his backyard take almost anything they want from him without saying a word.

But now that he was treated so cruelly by them without any nostalgia for his old feelings, he was somewhat heartbroken and a little helpless. In these last days, Houhuang wanted to be quieter, enjoy the last peace and simplicity, eat well and drink well without any regrets, so naturally he had no intention of taking care of business anymore.

However, he had no offspring in his life, and the subordinates he had previously favored for training could not hold back their greed and got involved in the struggle for profit in the backyard, so he was executed.

But...isn't it a coincidence?
Tao Qi appeared and was just available.

In fact, the timing of Tao Qi's appearance was so perfect that it made Hou Huang wonder if she had chosen the right time to show up on purpose, and even what happened in the backyard was part of her plan.

But the people under the Hou Huang are not vegetarians. Those who have disloyal intentions have been severely dealt with by the Hou Huang, and those who remain are loyal and reliable people.

They quickly found out Tao Qi's details and found out that she was just a poor person who had just escaped from the love affair, and was not a spy sent by the opponent.

Hou Huang was relieved and handed over all his subordinates to Tao Qi without hiding any secrets.

He threw it so neatly, it was like throwing away a handful of hot potatoes!
In the past two months, Tao Qi has been busy taking over the black market affairs, and she has learned very hard, but she is determined and gritted her teeth to survive.

If nothing unexpected happens, after Hou Huang passes away, she will take over the black markets in the two cities.

"Well, in addition to Chaos City, aren't some of Houhuang's manpower also divided into two other continents? Luo Yucheng's business has stabilized, and you can secretly join forces with Tao Qi's people when you develop outside." Ning Zhishui said, "But be careful and don't let anyone find out that Tao Qi is related to us."

Leng Lu was from Ning Zhishuiming, and of course he was also from the Ning family in Beiyu City. This was something that others could easily find out.

If it was just an ordinary trading relationship, then it would be reasonable for Leng Lu to have contact with Tao Qi, but what Ning Zhishui said was that the close contact should be kept secret.

She wanted Tao Qi to become a secret force, so that he could deal with some shady things.

"Yes."

"How is Jiaqing adapting?"

"She has learned very well and can already take charge of Fengle Garden independently."

Ning Zhishui smiled and said, "If I can hear your words, I will be really relieved."

Leng Lu is young, but he is a spirited person. He has been in the crowd since he was a child. He is used to seeing both warmth and cold. He is shrewd and sophisticated, and few people can fool him.

Hua Jiaqing lacked training. She used to work as a fisherman and go home to take care of her father. She lacked experience in dealing with others.

So Ning Zhishui put her in Fengleyuan, where people from all walks of life could be found. Luo Yucheng's special geographical location allowed guests from all continents to be there, and she could learn a lot.

Now that Hua Jiaqing is able to do it independently, it's time to give her a real mission.

Ning Zhishui's arrangements were not mentioned for the moment, and he only talked about Ji Yin's side. The drama soon began.

That was supposed to be the day of her and Shao Li's Taoist couple ceremony. Because of Ji Yin's status as an elite disciple in the sect, the ceremony was very grand and almost all the inner sect disciples came to watch the ceremony.

However, in the process of the two becoming Taoist couples, one of Ji Yin's junior sisters stepped forward angrily and loudly accused——

"Senior Sister Ji, don't marry him! Shao Li, that beast, has already betrayed you!" (End of Chapter)
