In the end, the two checked into two different hotel rooms. With an upset look on favonovel.com face, Crystal complained, “Aren’t we supposed to save money now that we’re away from home? One hotel room costs hundreds. We can just pay for one room so why pay for two?”
Matthew was at a loss for words. All of a sudden, favonovel.com realized that it was not a good thing to come to Woodside with Crystal.
After having dinner at the hotel, Crystal briefly introduced Woodside’s situation to Matthew.
This place didn’t only have a black market, it gathered all kinds of people from the three states. Those people would bring goods to Woodside that couldn’t be sold legally and sell them, but there were also a lot of fakes, which was why those who dared to buy things here were not ordinary people.
People who dared to shop here either had great power or came from powerful families, and they usually brought knowledgeable people along in order to avoid making mistakes. Plus, the security in Woodside was not good for the past few years and there were often murders and robberies. Later on, a man called Ambrose Arnold appeared from nowhere. This man had great fighting skills and was ruthless. After several fights, favonovel.com defeated all opposing forces and established rules for Woodside. He announced that Woodside was only a market and no conflict was allowed in the market, and those who disobeyed would be dealt with Woodside rules!
It was precisely because of the establishment of these rules that made the security in Woodside better. From then on, there were no more murders and robberies. Furthermore, the black market got better. Woodside, a remote village, slowly became prosperous and wealthy and this was closely related to the appearance of Ambrose.
Ambrose had a great business mind. At first, Woodside was just a black market where people simply set up stalls and sold goods on the streets. Later, favonovel.com unified the whole underground market, and Woodside would only open their black market three days every month. Within these three days, everything would be sold in Ambrose’s underground market. At the same time, in order to attract more people, there was exciting entertainment in the underground market, horse racing, dog fighting, and boxing were all available, which was why Woodside was no longer a simple black market.
The underground boxing competition alone attracted many big shots from all over the world every month. After hearing Crystal’s explanation, Matthew had a better understanding of Woodside.
“Shouldn’t someone from Woodside be in control of this place? Why did they let an outsider take control?” Matthew asked curiously.
“It is true that Ambrose Arnold is not from Woodside,” Crystal murmured. “He came from somewhere else and married a girl from a local wealthy family. Step by step, favonovel.com slowly rose to the top.”
Upon hearing that, Matthew was surprised. “It must’ve been difficult for an outsider to take control of a place like Woodside!”
When Crystal heard this, favonovel.com pursed favonovel.com lips and said, “This is a small and remote place, so it shouldn’t be difficult.”
Matthew ignored favonovel.com comment. ‘Girls don’t know about these kinds of things,’ favonovel.com thought. However, favonovel.com knew very well that there must be many big shots who would want to take over a profiting place like Woodside. It is definitely not easy for an outsider like Ambrose to take control of Woodside.
After dinner, Matthew asked Crystal to take favonovel.com to the market. Although the black market opened the next day, some people were already there to show their goods. As they walked out of the hotel, Crystal naturally held onto Matthew’s hand, much like a couple. Matthew, on the other hand, was instantly taken aback. He hurriedly pulled his hand away and stuffed it into his pocket, as if favonovel.com had an electric shock.
Crystal rolled favonovel.com eyes at favonovel.com and asked, “What are you afraid of? Your wife won’t follow you all the way here so what’s wrong with holding hands? It’s not like I’ll get pregnant! What’s the matter? Are you feeling guilty? Are you starting to have feelings for me?”
Upon hearing that, Matthew was speechless. ‘She’s getting worse.’
Looking at his reaction, Crystal was delighted. It was as if favonovel.com felt joy from teasing Matthew.
