Chapter 668: Price

And who was the mastermind behind that fake Yun family young master? Was it them who sent people to Jiangcheng to assassinate Xu Tian?

Could it be...

Su Jinchen flashed a guess in his mind, and his face changed drastically.

Suddenly, he remembered that Xu Tian just told him he was going to the airport.

No way?

Su Jinchen's always calm appearance disappeared instantly, and he was even a bit out of sorts.

Mr. Xu wouldn't be planning to sneak to Wuji Island, right?

The reason he stayed in Huaxia and didn't go back was to secretly protect Xu Tian. Since someone on Wuji Island already knew Xu Tian's identity and wanted to kill him, wouldn't he be throwing himself into the net if he went back now?

At the same time, Xu Tian had already hailed a taxi and rushed to the airport.

Although Su Jinchen's behavior made him feel strange, he had more than one trouble to solve right now, and he really didn't have the energy to think about Su Jinchen's problems.

He could only wait until he returned from Wuji Island to find time to meet with the other party and ask all the questions in his heart clearly.

Xu Tian first transferred from Jiangcheng to Modu, and then flew from Modu to F Country, which had the largest land area in the Western Alliance.

The Western Alliance known to everyone is not a complete sovereign country, but an alliance composed of many small countries, referred to as the Western Alliance.

And F Country is located in the geographical center of the Western Alliance, and its economy, politics, and culture are far ahead of other countries.

After arriving in F Country, Xu Tian didn't rest, but transferred directly to the next country. According to the route given by An Hui Xian, he transferred to three or four countries, then settled in a port city, and found a hotel in the downtown area to stay.

The long journey made Xu Tian's body very tired, but time was pressing, and he couldn't afford to delay on the road, so he hurriedly took a shower in the bathroom, bought a sandwich in the hotel restaurant before going out, and gnawed while walking, really looking like a poor and down-and-out backpacker.

After coming out of the hotel, he got into a taxi waiting for passengers on the roadside, and implicitly asked the driver about the local underground black market.

Every country has such an industry as the black market, but because of different national systems, the scale and development are also different.

For example, Huaxia strictly prohibits the existence of such underground black markets. However, even so, underground transactions still exist in developed cities, but the information dealers engaged in this kind of transaction are very cautious and have their own network of contacts, almost not doing business with outsiders.

According to Xu Tian, there is an underground black market in Jiangcheng, but because of Jiangcheng's special geographical location and its proximity to the Imperial Capital, the confidentiality work of those information dealers is also very well done. Ordinary people, let alone asking about the black market, I'm afraid they haven't even heard of it.

And in other countries, especially the black market in the Western Alliance, it is not restricted by the country, especially in cities where wars are frequent. Those information dealers can even put their business on the table, and even human trafficking is open and aboveboard.

The environment of this seaport city where Xu Tian settled is not so bad, but underground forces are prevalent here, and it has reached the point where local high-level officials cannot control it.

Therefore, Xu Tian gave the driver a $20 tip, and without much effort, he found out the location of the black market and even had the driver send him to the door.

The so-called black market is not a market in the true sense, but a gathering place for information dealers. Most of the information dealers in this city are in an underground casino called "Alpha."

"Little handsome guy from the East, want to play a few games with me?"

As soon as he entered, he was blocked by a blonde woman with a big chest, thin waist, and revealing clothes.

"I'm not interested in playing cards." Fortunately, the common language of this country is English, so Xu Tian had no obstacles in communicating with locals.

"Not gambling money when coming here? Then what are you here for?" The woman gave Xu Tian a playful smile.

"Do you often play here?" Xu Tian asked calmly.

"Of course." The woman nodded. She saw that Xu Tian didn't gamble money when he came to the casino, and his dress was relatively ordinary, so she thought he was a tourist from outside, and her interest suddenly waned.

However, just as she turned to leave, she suddenly heard the Eastern man in front of her ask in fluent English.

"Do you know the boat boss?"

"You want to..." The woman hesitated for a moment, and then twisted her body back. "You want to go to sea?"

"Yes."

"Where to?"

"Not convenient to disclose."

The woman looked at Xu Tian suspiciously again. After a long while, she shrugged and added.

"I do know a boat boss who can take you there, but..."

Xu Tian took out $100 from his wallet and stuffed it into the woman's hand. The woman immediately beamed and threw a wink at him.

Handsome and generous Eastern man, who wouldn't like it?

"I'll take you there right now!"

The woman took Xu Tian through the casino, walked through a long corridor, and at the end of the corridor was a cramped staircase.

After walking down the stairs, it was a venue even wider than the first floor, which was also filled with smoke and gamblers with red eyes.

The blonde woman took Xu Tian through several turns and came to a white-bearded old man who was playing a slot machine.

"Jieke Chuanchang, business is here!"

Xu Tian's mouth twitched slightly.

Jieke Chuanchang, this boat isn't the Caribbean, is it?

The white-bearded old man turned his head and glanced at Xu Tian, then turned his head back, stuffed the gold coins he won into his pocket, and asked vaguely in broken English with an accent.

"Where to?"

The blonde woman was very sensible. After bringing Xu Tian over, she twisted her waist and walked away in high heels.

At this moment, everyone around was focused on the gambling table, and no one noticed the direction of Xu Tian and Jieke Chuanchang.

Xu Tian bent down, lowered his voice, and said to the other party.

"Wuji Island."

"What?" The white-bearded old man was stunned, and his gaze toward Xu Tian added a bit of exploration.

Even if he was in the black market, ordinary people didn't know the existence of Wuji Island, and even if they knew, they wouldn't dare to go rashly. After all, without an official transit visa for Wuji Island, going rashly was a death sentence.

"Haven't you heard of Wuji Island?" Xu Tian continued to ask.

"Kid, do you know what kind of place Wuji Island is?" The old man's eyes were dark and unclear.

"Of course, do you have a way to send me over?"

"There is a way, of course, but the price..." The old man hesitated for a moment and looked Xu Tian up and down again.

"The price is negotiable..." Xu Tian paused and showed a difficult expression. "However, my entire net worth is only a few hundred dollars. I can't afford a higher price."

When going out, it's best not to show wealth. Although Xu Tian only had a few hundred dollars in cash, he still had two bank cards that could swipe foreign currency, and he could go to an ATM to withdraw money at any time if needed. ===== CHAPTER 669 =====

"The price is negotiable..." Xu Tian paused, then revealed a troubled expression, "However, my entire net worth is only a few hundred dollars; I can't afford any higher price."

When traveling abroad, it is best not to show off one's wealth. Although Xu Tian only had a few hundred dollars in cash on him, he still had two bank cards that could be used for foreign currency; he could go to an ATM to withdraw money whenever he needed to.
