The sun set in the west, and the lights in the city lit up.
Near Youji Street in the East Market, the residents were all low-level peddlers and laborers. The street was relatively old, and there were all kinds of stalls along the street. In the alleys, there were gambling dens and hidden brothels.
Although the brothels were cheap, their grade was too low in the capital. Even at the peak of business at night, there were not many people on the old street. Only some sounds came from the brothels and gambling dens.
There was a house behind the gambling alley. The door was tightly shut, and there was some mud on the stone doorstep. At night, almost no one entered this place.
The house was very quiet inside. The few men in charge of digging the tunnel during the day used hot water to clean the oil stains from the dissolving oil in the house.
