Black Market Part 2

Black market? A trader? And what a strange badge!

Tang Ling showed an appropriate curiosity towards all this. He knew nothing about this and there was no reason for him to feign intelligence. The curiosity he showed was perfectly timed and sincere as well, so it was easy to win one's trust.

Tony expected Tang Ling's curiosity. If this fresh young boy knew about the existence of the black market, he would not be so cautious like before.

Of course, Tang Ling's honesty won Tony's fondness.

So, Tony explained to him quickly, "The black market is the underground market! It has all kinds of reasons to exist within Safety Sector No. 17. So, why do you think it exists, my dear little sir?" 

"You can just call me Tang." Tang Ling was uncomfortable with how Tony addressed him, so he simply gave the man a nickname.
