Sure enough, after arriving at the tea stall, the driver got off the carriage and bought tea directly at the tea stall. Li Haitang watched closely the whole time, fearing that he would add medicine to the tea, and took antidote pills with the savage husband in advance to be prepared.

She was really thirsty, and she didn't care about the crudeness of the tea bowl. She drank a big bowl in one gulp.

After drinking the herbal tea with some ice cubes in it, Li Haitang suddenly felt relieved from the heat and his mind became clearer.

"Brother, your accent doesn't sound like someone from Los Angeles."

The carriage hadn't left the city yet. Li Haitang was not familiar with the roads in Luo City and didn't know if the other party was going in circles. She tried her best to find topics.

The bandit's accent sounded strange, a bit mixed. It seemed like he had been to many places, and finally learned a little of the local dialects and spoke nondescriptly.

"yes."

The driver's heart trembled, and he immediately became wary. He squinted his eyes, wondering about the identities of the two people in the car.

The man with the scar on his face looked a bit like their accomplice. He had a bit of evil energy about him and was not like an ordinary businessman.

Having lived a life of licking blood for these years, he had some instinctive warnings about the sense of crisis. At least, that man was very dangerous.

However, how can someone who can spend tens of thousands of taels of silver be just an idle person?

It's hard to say that the other party is also a bandit and wants to buy some at a low price from him and resell them.

They have good things in their hands. If they weren't wanted, it would be inconvenient for them to come forward, and they wouldn't have to live in hiding like they do now. It's really frustrating!

"You two don't look like you are from Luo City. Xiao Zhuzhu said you were passing by here too."

The driver spoke the same words without leaving any trace, but he was thinking in his heart that if the target had a strong background or there were many people behind him, they might have to change their plan.

He collected the cash check and left quickly after the transaction, leaving the two of them alone.

It's not that they have a conscience, it's just that they don't want to cause trouble for themselves on the way to escape.

"hehe."

Li Haitang laughed dryly. The other party still wanted to trick her into thinking she was stupid?

She said casually, "Let's not talk secretly. People who come to Luo City and go to Jewelry Street are almost all from outside. It's enough to get some advantages and advantages. You can't stay where you are forever, right?"

"We are in a hurry, otherwise we wouldn't ask Xiaozhu for help."

What Li Haitang told was the truth. After hearing this, the bandit became more and more convinced that the transaction between the two was carried out behind the scenes. Even if there were people accompanying him, not many people would know about it.

At noon, there were fewer and fewer people on the streets, the sun was shining brightly, and the people were resting at home. On the way out of the city, there were almost no pedestrians, cars or horses.

The driver continued walking in one direction and came to the foot of a deserted mountain.

Xiao Lingchuan took Li Haitang and his wife out of the carriage and looked around. There was no one around and there was nothing to trade.

The driver wants to kill people here and silence them? Just him?

Li Haitang felt that it would not be that simple. There must be other bandits ambushing around, and they might still be sizing her up.

People from the yamen will not come so quickly, so they have to delay for time to ensure their own safety.

How many scenes has she never seen before? They were just a few bandits, not to mention accompanied by their own savage husband. Li Haitang didn't take them seriously at all, with a relaxed look on his face and a faint smile all the time.

She didn't know that her expression had confused the bandits who were hiding in the grass and feeding the mosquitoes.

"Boss, look at that girl's happy face. She looks like she's here to enjoy the sights. She can't have anything to rely on, right?"

The second brother of the bandit poked the boss with his hand, feeling a little excited. They had been very unlucky recently. They had done one thing from Lucheng and the border town, and as soon as they escaped to Fancheng, they became a lost dog. Even if they stayed in a good inn, they would lose a group of brothers.

It doesn't matter to them when people go in, since the money is fixed anyway, and they will be happier if the money is divided less.

The bandit boss took his remaining brothers and fled all the way to Luo City, just to exchange the stolen items for money. As long as they had money, they would leave here quickly.

"It looks like it."

The bandit boss stared at Li Haitang, seeing how beautiful the little lady was. He even ran to the stream to wash his face. He was not nervous at all. He didn't seem to be an inexperienced rookie.

Perhaps, the other party came even though they knew their identities.

This group of people did not dare to act rashly. After waiting for a long time, no movement was seen around them, so the bandits relaxed a lot.

The bandit boss waved, and with the remaining dozen brothers and a few boxes of things, they emerged from the barley.

"Here, this is our goods, you can click on them."

There are many people on our side, and the bandits are very confident, and they have no idea that the other party will steal things without paying them.

Li Haitang sneered, could she come in vain? Of course it's for the benefit.

The naive idiot is not suitable to be a bandit, because she will soon teach these people a vivid lesson with blood and tears.

Under normal circumstances, property collected by the Yamen will not be given to the owner. Especially when the bandits kill people, it is unclear where they robbed the property.

These things are cheap for the prefect and official, but they are not as cheap as they are cheap for her. She is worried that she does not have the start-up capital to open a shop. After calculation, she always comes up with a little difference.

With the stolen goods, she would not sell them on the jewelry street and send them to the black market, where she could give them at least 80% of the market price.

"Let me consider."

Li Haitang opened a large box. Inside was a box of jade pendants, pearls and other objects, which indeed had nothing to do with gold or silver.

Those gold and silver jewelry can be twisted and used directly as flowers, but jade pendants cannot.

Jewelry in prosperous times, gold in troubled times, once the world is in chaos, who will have the time to buy these recreational things? The first thing people think about is whether they can starve and survive.

The bandits robbed a total of four large boxes. The quality of the jadeite was different, good and bad. At first glance, it looked like they were scrapped from many people's homes. Some of the jadeites were of poor quality and worthless.

"These are also very different from Yu Ruyi, right?"

Li Haitang frowned, with a look of disgust on his face, and said bluntly, "Do you only have these rags?"

The bandit boss grinned. It seemed that he was right. The two people who came were experts and could tell the quality of things at a glance.

Before he became a bandit, he worked as a clerk in a jewelry store. He was sent to prison by the shopkeeper for stealing, and he had no choice but to escape.

After working as a waiter for several years, his vision was naturally different, so after robbing things, he patiently sorted them.

These are just to deceive others. Compared with the jade Ruyi, they are indeed tatters. A large box is not as valuable as the jade Ruyi. He secretly left a large box and hid it in Cao Dezi. That was the truly valuable thing.
