Agent Abandoned Concubine: Tyrant, beg for favor

Chapter 224 Leak Detection

When I woke up the next day, the sun was shining brightly.Although the yard is a bit chilly, the air is very refreshing.Su Ruoqi was exercising in a martial arts suit.

Although everything in the yard was as usual, Su Ruoqi also felt that the spies in the mansion were watching him.

When Yunxi woke up, Su Ruoqi had already prepared breakfast, which was steamed dumplings and eight-treasure porridge.The meat in the steamed dumplings is fat but not greasy, which is very suitable for Yunxi's taste.

The eight-treasure porridge was also cooked by Su Ruoqi, which was fragrant, glutinous and refreshing. Yun Xi ate two bowls in a row.

Seeing Yun Xi who was eating so happily, Su Ruoqi raised the corners of his mouth and smiled slightly.

"What about Li Ran and the others? Invite them to eat together." Yun Xi said.

"They have already eaten, these are for you." Su Ruoqi said with a smile.

There are more and more spies, and it becomes more and more inconvenient for Yunxi and Su Ruoqi to talk. Sometimes, the two of them can only pretend to be affectionate, and talk close to each other's ears.

Su Ruoqi knew that Yunxi was worried about him at night.Su Ruoqi and Yunxi put the pillows on the bed into the quilt, wrapping them in a human appearance.

Su Ruoqi led Yun Xi all the way down from the door of the darkroom, into the tunnel.

The tunnel is dark and humid.

After walking for a long time, Su Ruoqi and Yun Xi saw Li Ran who was working hard.

Li Ran was digging the soil in front of him desperately with a shovel. The sweat on his face was mixed with soil, making Li Ran's fair face dark.

Yun Xi and Su Ruoqi quickly picked up the shovel and dug together with Li Ran. They dug through a section of soft soil, but when they reached the next section, the soil was solid. The three of them quickly exhausted their strength and sat together tiredly. next to it.

"Ruoqi, the quality of the soil is really not easy to dig. Why don't you take a break today." Yun Xi said while panting heavily.

The sweat of the three people all wet their clothes.

Su Ruoqi practiced martial arts since he was a child, and Yun Xi was a secret agent. Although the two of them were a little tired, they could still persevere.What Yunxi was worried about was that Li Ran's body couldn't take it anymore, so she told Su Ruoqi to take a rest.

Li Ran sensed Yun Xi's kindness, and smiled at Yun Xi and said, "I'm fine, let's continue digging."

"You are still young, if you are physically strenuous, your body will not be able to bear it." Yun Xi looked at Li Ran with worry in her eyes.

"I don't need to be hungry every day now. This kind of physical work is much easier for me than what I did before. I can still bear it," Li Ran said to Yun Xi with a firm gaze and a smile.

Yun Xi could only nod her head in agreement, and the three of them started digging again. Finally, after this section of digging, the soil became loose again, and it didn't take that much effort to dig.

All three of them looked joyful, but they were already exhausted at this time.

Su Ruoqi said to come back tomorrow, Yun Xi and Li Ran both agreed.

In the early morning of this day, Yun Xi also got up early.She suddenly found out that Li Ran had become much stronger and grown a little taller after not paying attention to it for a few days.

Li Ran scratched his head when he heard it: he smiled embarrassedly.

Su Ruoqi was practicing martial arts routines, stretching and relaxing, very powerful.

Li Ran was fascinated by it, looked at Su Ruoqi eagerly and said, "I also want to learn martial arts, can you teach me?"

Su Ruoqi suddenly grabbed Li Ran's wrist, Li Ran turned around, and Su Ruoqi controlled his arm.

"See, this trick is done like this."Su Ruoqi demonstrated while talking.

Li Ran imitated Su Ruoqi's moves and learned them on the sidelines, and he learned each move with style.

Yun Xi watched from the side, feeling that this scene was extremely harmonious, if it weren't for the troubled times, it would be great.

Su Ruoqi casually taught Li Ran several self-defense techniques, and Li Ran learned them very seriously, constantly practicing Su Ruoqi's every move just now.

For places with spies, Su Ruoqi and Yunxi had to appear more comfortable so as not to be suspected.Su Ruoqi and Yun Xi often walked out of the room, intentionally letting spies watch them.

Although the Pepsi on the street outside was sluggish, Yunxi discovered a good business opportunity, that is leak detection.The more turbulent the years, the less valuable the rare treasures, and everyone exchanged their ancestral treasures for food and clothing.There is no question of the true value of the jewel.

One day when I went to the market, I saw an old man next to me saying that he wanted to sell his family heirlooms to treat his grandson.It was a pendant with fine South Sea pearls inlaid in the middle, exuding a soft luster all over.

The pattern on the top of the pendant is lifelike, and it is worth a lot of money at first glance.

The old man said at the beginning: "Ten taels of silver."

Seeing Yun Xi frowning, she thought it was too expensive and immediately changed her mind: "Five taels, as long as it is five taels, as long as it can save my grandson's life. All the jewelry here can be given to the nobles."

Yun Xi frowned because she felt that the price was too cheap, but unexpectedly, she was misunderstood by the old man.

"Old man, since you have such jewels, why don't you go to the pawnshop to exchange them for money. To save your grandson, you sell them here."

The old man said helplessly: "Young lady, I don't know. It's a troubled time. This person can't even eat. Where can I buy jewelry? This pile of jewelry is not worth as much as a piece of cake."

Yun Xi sighed after hearing this, and gave all the money she had brought to the old man.

"Thank you so much, young master, for your great kindness. I will give these pieces of jewelry to the young lady." The old man stuffed all the jewelry into Yun Xi's hands, turned around and left with his own box.

Back in the mansion, Yun Xi took out the jewels in the bag and looked at them carefully.Su Ruoqi also looked at it and said: "These jewels are indeed priceless. Presumably this old man's ancestors must have been rich and noble, but now they have fallen to this."

Yun Xi didn't hear Su Ruoqi's words clearly, but looked at a rusty ornament and began to think.

The value of other objects is obvious at a glance, but this ornament is put together with that pile of jewels for some reason.

Suddenly, Yun Xi's inspiration flashed, and she shouted at Su Ruoqi: "Ruoqi, bring me a knife."

Yun Xi scratched the ornament a few times with a knife, and the inside revealed a golden color.This ornament was actually made of gold.

Yun Xi was shocked, this ornament was worth the sum of those jewels.

Su Ruoqi was also very surprised when he saw this ornament, never thought that such cheap gold, silver and jewelry could be bought at the street stalls.

What a mess!

Afterwards, when she went out, Yunxi often paid attention to those who were about to sell their jewelry. When Yunxi saw them, she would specially offer a price higher than the market price. Those people were very grateful to Yunxi because they got the life-saving silver taels.

Therefore, Yunxi's reputation for buying jewelry has spread in this area.
