Chapter 169 Targeting
At the black market in the county town, Lin Jiadong, who was slightly dressed up, and a few of his younger brothers were guarding the entrance of the black market.
The younger brother said, "Third Master, will that person show up again today?"
Lin Jiadong stood with his hands behind his back, looking deeply at the people coming and going at the entrance of the black market, his eyes scanning each person like a searchlight.
"That guy recently took on Black Laizi's order and has to deliver goods to him every day."
"Blackie is not a good person. I don't believe that boy dares to stand him up."
After Lam Ka-tung's analysis, the younger brother was cheered up again: "I let that guy run away yesterday, and I was beaten up by a group of wild mandarin ducks in the woods. If I catch him today, I will beat him up severely."
Several people stared at the crowd with sharp eyes, and before they saw the target they were waiting for, they attracted the attention of the black market manager.
A tall man with muscular body walked towards the fist.
"Brothers, we have been here for a long time. I wonder what you can do for us."
His eyes were fixed on the people in front of him. There were a few people approaching vaguely. As long as they found something wrong, they would outflank Lam Ka Tung and his brothers.
When the younger brother rolled up his sleeves and was about to confront the strong man, Lam Ka Tung stopped his younger brother, took out a cigarette box from his pocket and handed a cigarette to the strong man.
"Brother, don't mind us, we are not here to challenge you."
The strong man took the cigarette, put it in his mouth and smacked his lips a few times.
"I'm not trying to cause trouble, brother. It's just that there are so many people coming and going at the gate, and a bunch of you standing here affects our business."
Lam Ka-tung said with a smile: "We were inconsiderate and disturbed the brothers. We will leave now."
Watching the group of people walk away, a short man approached the strong man.
"Do you know which road it is on?"
The strong man spat the chewed cigarette butt onto the ground with two "Puh" sounds.
"After all, he is not a righteous person."
The short man said, "Then don't worry about it. No one in our area can get out of Heiye's hands."
"We should be careful. Didn't a car overturn in Xiping Township?"
"The three guys from Xiping Township are now in contact with the police and are difficult to deal with. Hei Ye means to give up that area temporarily."
"Okay, go back. I'll continue to guard like this. Don't worry, no one can cause trouble in the black market with me here."
Lin Jiadong and his companions walked three blocks before stopping. The younger brother asked, "Third Master, are we just going to leave like this?"
Lin Jiadong turned his head and looked deeply at the street.
"You go back first."
Younger brother 1: "That kid——"
"Leave that kid to me."
Qi Lixia came out of the county hospital with a pale face.
She had been experiencing a tearing pain in her head recently, but after a check-up at the hospital, she was found to have just some anemia. The doctor prescribed some blood-replenishing medicine and let her go home.
After putting the medicine in his backpack, Qi Lixia walked straight into the black market when passing by.
This was not her first time to come to the black market in the county town. She walked around the residential alleys behind the black market several times and arrived in front of a small courtyard.
After carefully observing that there was no one around, she quietly climbed over the wall and entered the yard.
The yard is overgrown with weeds, but the house is kept very clean.
Qi Lixia carefully checked all places and found no one there, then released bags of snow-white rice from the space.
After putting the things away, she went out again the same way she came. When she passed by a yard, she tied the note she had written long ago to a stone and threw it in.
When someone in the yard came out to check, she had already run far away and mixed in with the crowd of people shopping.
In fact, she was the guy that Lam Ka-tung was waiting to catch at the entrance, but she had disguised herself before.
Hei Lai Zi is a very conceited person. He believes that no one dares to cheat him in this place.
Moreover, the goods Qi Lixia had were of good quality and in large quantity. In order to retain this large source of goods, he paid a deposit in advance that was half of the total price.
Qi Lixia would just find an opportunity to deliver the goods to him, take the remaining half of the money after delivering half of the goods, and then continue delivering the goods. There was little communication between the two sides.
This was also the guarantee that Heila Zi made to Qi Lixia, otherwise she would not dare to do such a big business when she first arrived.
Qi Lixia only comes to deliver goods on Sundays, giving people the impression that he is a person with a formal job.
The last time I came to deliver goods, I was accidentally spotted by Lam Ka Tung and was chased by his men for a long time before I escaped.
Although Qi Lixia didn't know that the person pursuing her was Lin Jiadong's subordinate.
After delivering the goods, Qi Lixia strolled around the black market with peace of mind and inquired about the prices of various items.
It turned out that the price of her rice was more than twice cheaper than the general price on the black market, and her rice was finely polished rice from later generations, without any stones or rice husks mixed in it.
No wonder Heilazi was willing to give her half of the money directly and let her deliver the goods slowly.
Hei Lai Zi is indeed a black scoundrel to an outrageous degree. Qi Lixia plans to stop cooperating with him after this deal is done.
Qi Lixia was strolling leisurely in the black market, as relaxed as if she was going shopping, but she didn't know that someone was already eyeing her.
After being warned by the strong man at the entrance of the black market, Lin Jiadong asked his brothers to go back.
He removed the disguise on his face, changed into a new set of clothes, returned to his well-dressed appearance, and walked into the black market with confidence.
The strong man guarding the entrance looked at him puzzledly for a few times, but still did not recognize him.
Lam Ka-tung looks like anyone else who comes to buy or sell things, but in fact his eyes are observing and analyzing everyone he meets.
After all, he had been a soldier for several years, so he had some reconnaissance skills. He soon discovered a figure that looked familiar... a woman?
Lam Ka-tung frowned, but he remembered that there were women disguised as men in the black market, and he had encountered men disguised as women several times.
So he quietly followed the guy who was suspected to be the one who provided high-quality rice to Hei Lai Zi.
At first he just felt that the woman looked a little familiar, and the more he looked at her, the more she looked like that boy.
"I didn't expect it to be a woman. Where did her goods come from?"
Lin Jiadong had never seen such white and plump rice. After seeing it, he vowed to control the supply in his own hands.
Lin Jiadong kept following the woman until one day she turned around and he finally saw her profile.
She was the female educated youth from Gaolitun Brigade whom his son particularly liked and wanted him to marry as his stepmother.
Lin Jiadong thought about it for a while before he realized, "It seems her last name is Qi, and her name is Qi Lixia, how could it be her?"
Lam Ka-tung was not the only one who noticed Qi Lixia.
The main reason was that Qi Lixia was only carrying a cloth bag, and would ask the price every time he passed by a seller, but he didn't buy anything, which had already attracted other people's attention.
