Chapter 13 Chapter 3: Goldfinger and the Ghost City

Chapter 13 Chapter Thirteen: Goldfinger and the Ghost City
When I got home, I took out the ring I bought from Li Qiang, and looked at it carefully, it was a bit weird!This shape is indeed not something of this era, and there is nothing wrong with it.

Forget it, don’t think about it, I picked it up and put it on the little finger of my left hand. After looking at it, the size was right, so I was about to take it off, alas!Why can't I take it off? It's strange, hey!Why is this finger still bleeding? Quickly wipe it off with a towel, there is no wound!How did this blood come out?

Just as I was thinking about it, a piece of information came to my mind. It turns out that this ring is called the Qiankun Ring, which is the greatest invention of the 22nd century. It was made by scientists using a thing called spar brought back from Mars. Cubic meters of space for storing items.Brainwaves can be used to control the items in the space to be retracted.

I said that there was no plug-in when I came here, so it was waiting for me here. If I don't buy this ring, this ring can only be used as an ornament in the hands of others.

Tried to use it, it’s okay, this is a large warehouse!This is very convenient for storing things.

Go to the black market tomorrow night, it will be much more convenient to do things with this ring.

Get off work the next night, go home and finish dinner, and wait until everyone is asleep.

Holding a flashlight, he rode his bicycle out of the courtyard and ran directly to Chaoyangmen.

Fortunately, when I bought a car, I picked one with a grinding lamp, otherwise it would be dark, and I wouldn't be able to ride into the ditch.

When we arrived at Chaoyangmen, we found a place where no one was there, and put the bicycle in the space.

He took out the flashlight, wrapped it in a piece of cloth, then opened it and looked at it. The brightness was just right, and he walked directly towards the Chaoyang Gate.

The ghost market outside Chaoyangmen always opens at dark and closes at dawn.Spread out along the city wall, hundreds of meters from north to south, there are everything for sale, and no one yells at you. You can see what you want. After you look at it, ask for a good price. If you can, you can pay for it and deliver it. Leave, don't ask where things come from.

When I came to the ghost market, many people had already started setting up stalls here.

In front of each stall, there is a lantern with small twists and turns, just like the "wild fire" you see when you pass by the graveyard at night.

While watching and walking, I came to a stall selling old clothes. There were a few 55-style cadet army coats on the booth, and the condition was quite new.

He walked over and asked in a low voice, "How much is this coat, man?"
"Twenty," said the man.

"Okay ~ get me two pieces" he said, took out the money and handed it to him, then picked out two new ones, picked them up and left.

Seeing that the number of people coming and going began to increase, I put on the masks and hats I took out of the space, and continued shopping.

When I walked to a stall selling live animals, there were several cages on the ground, some chickens and rabbits in them, walked over and asked, "Are there any hens?"
"A rooster costs two yuan and five yuan, and a hen that is laying eggs costs four yuan each. How many do you want?"
Yan Xiecheng: "Here are two hens, can you give me one in this cage? I can't get it either."

"You give me [-] cents, and I'll change you to a bigger cage, how about that?"
"Okay" After giving the money and changing the cage, he carried it and walked to a place where no one was there, watching for anyone to follow as he walked.

Walking to an alley, after confirming that there is no one around, release the bicycle, put the coat and flashlight back into the space, tie the cage to the rear frame, and ride back to the courtyard quickly.

At dawn the next morning, seeing Yan Fugui was up, he brought the chicken he bought last night to the East Wing
Yan Xiecheng: "Dad, I went to the ghost market last night and bought two hens that lay eggs. Our family raises eggs to eat. Look where they put them."

Yan Bugui looked at it, "How much did you pay for this chicken?"
"I bought two chickens and a cage for eight yuan and two."

"It's too expensive, one yuan in the vegetable market."

"Can this be the same? There is no ticket in the vegetable market, and they won't sell you if you take the money! This is still a hen that lays eggs. Find a place to put these two chickens."

"Come on, put it under the wall, put a few bricks under the cage, and put a wooden board on the cage, okay, that's it."

Just after putting it away, Sha Zhu came out from the middle courtyard to look at it and said: "Xie Cheng, sell me one of your chickens, and I will make soup for my sister."

Yan Jiecheng: "This is a hen, a hen that lays eggs. This hen is enough to buy a roast duck. You can just buy a roast duck for your sister."

Silly Zhu: "What kind of hen are you, so expensive? One yuan at the vegetable market."

Yan Jiecheng: "Then why don't you go to the vegetable market to buy?"
Silly Zhu: "Then it's better to buy pork, isn't it delicious to make braised pork?"
Yan Jiecheng: "I don't think your sister will be able to eat your braised pork anymore."

Silly Zhu: "I'll make it for my sister some other day, you're so hungry."

Yan Jiecheng smiled: "I'll figure it out, you can't make this braised pork, do you believe it?"
Silly Zhu: "I really don't believe this. When I do it, I'll ask you to come and watch it."

Yan Xiecheng: "You don't have to be afraid that I will learn from you secretly."

After finishing talking and returning to the room, Yan Jiefang and Yan Jiekuang were flipping through the bed with their military coats in their hands. When they saw Yan Jiecheng coming, they asked excitedly, "Brother, where did you get this military coat?"
Yan Jiecheng: "I went to the ghost market last night, where did I buy it?"

Yan Jiefang: "This coat is quite new, why don't you give me one? Xie Kuang is still young and he can't wear it."

Yan Jiecheng: "You have to tell Dad, if Dad doesn't want you to wear it."

Yan Jiefang: "I'm going to find my dad right now."

Yan Xiecheng looked at Yan Jiefang who ran out, without saying a word, picked up the car keys on the table, went out, got on his bicycle and went to work.

When I came to the office, I saw that other people picked up the broom to sweep the floor, wiped the table clean, took the thermos bottle to fill the water room, and returned to the office, sat on the leather chair and picked up the newspaper to read. The other four people came to the office one after another.

Li Gang: "Xie Cheng came so early today."

Yan Xiecheng: "I came here early for nothing."

Hu Dajun: "In the future, we will divide into two teams, and each team will be responsible for four workshops. Yan Xiecheng and Li Qiang will be in charge of workshops No. 4 to No. [-], and Li Gang and Wang Hai will be in charge of workshops No. [-] to No. [-]. I am in charge of other places, so that it will be convenient when working in the future, and I will talk to the people in those workshops later, and we will do this in the future.”

After Hu Dajun finished speaking, Yan Jiecheng and Li Qiang walked out of the office, checked the wiring from workshop to workshop, returned to the office to catch fish, and followed the team to the cafeteria for lunch with lunch boxes at noon.

After lunch, he was eating, when he saw Xu Damao running over, sat across from him and said, "Yan Xiecheng, why did Liu Guangqi go to the third line when he was doing well? Is he out of his mind?"

"How do I know this? Maybe he thinks he can be an official if he goes to the third front."

"As long as he is still an official, their old Liu family will not be an official."Xu Damao said disdainfully.

"That's not for sure, the second uncle is at least a seventh-level blacksmith, and if he is promoted to an eighth-level blacksmith, he might really be able to become a petty official."

"It's just him, believe it or not, I'm the only one who will be an official, and the second uncle will not be able to be. When I become an official, I will treat you to dinner." Xu Damao said calmly
"Okay, I'll wait for the day when you treat guests to dinner." After speaking, he left directly.
