Feng Jiu looked askance at them, "This Young Master is looking for the one in charge here . " While speaking, she handed over a command token .
When the guard saw the token, his eyes shrank . He took it at once with both hands and respectfully told her, "Come in, Young Master . I'll report to my superior immediately . "
One man quickly took the token to report to the steward, while the other took them inside . After bringing them to the people inside, the guard withdrew . The people inside took them to the hall and served them tea and pastries .
The steward was chatting with two middle-aged men in the side room . When he heard a knock at the door, he scolded, "You have no eyes! Don't you know I'm hosting distinguished guests?"
The sound of knocking on the door outside paused and the guard hesitated a bit . Nevertheless, he made the report, "Steward, someone came to see you with a black market command token . "
The steward was surprised to hear this news . He looked at the other two . When those two gave him a nod, he said, "Come in!"
The guard came in . He did not dare to look around but respectfully handed the black market command token to him . "Steward, this is our black market's black command token . This subordinate didn't dare to neglect them and let them be brought to the hall . "
The steward took a look and saw that it was signifying the black market's honourable representative . With surprise, he handed the token to the two people sitting beside him, "What kind of person is the one bringing this black command token?"
"He's a handsome Young Master in a red robe . He appeared to be around fifteen or sixteen years old . There are only two attendants on his side, a man and a woman . " The guard reported .
"Mm, you can withdraw . " He waved and motioned him to retreat .
"Yes . "
The guard withdrew and closed the door . At this time, those three people in the room spoke again .
"This black command token is indeed ours . Every gift of black command token must be registered and reported . Moreover, it is not easy for ordinary people to get this token . How can such a stripling youth have a black command token?"
"No matter how he got it, whenever a person bringing a black command token comes, I have to meet him in person . " When the steward wanted to retrieve the black command token, the middle-aged man holding the token moved his hand away from him . He was startled, not knowing what he meant .
"This black command token is not able to recognize people though . " He said suddenly, looking at the steward .
The steward and the middle-aged man beside him were shocked . After some time, the manager frowned slightly . He said, "That's not good . We are all working on the black market . We should know the rules . Moreover, if the youngster can get the black command token, his identity is not simple . If the top brass knows, we can't afford the consequences . "
"Let me go with you to take a look . I also want to know, where on earth this youngster come from? How could he own a black command token?" The middle-aged man stood up, looked at the black command in his hand and said, "It's still undetermined whether this token is his either . "
The man next to him tried to advise him . Only his lips moved, but he didn't say anything at all . Instead, he also stood up . He was going to see what kind of person he was .
Knowing their minds, the steward sighed softly, "But first, I'd like to give you a reminder . The other party brings a black command token which means he is our black market's most honourable guest . You can't mess up . "
"Messing up? Haha, you think too much . " The middle-aged man smiled and made a gesture to let him go first .
The three men left the room and went to the hall .
