back to the turbulent age

Chapter 89, Investigation

When Zhao Chuanliang heard the voice, he hurriedly covered the bag in his hand tightly, and looked at the other party vigilantly.

The body also stepped back.

The muzzle is at 45 degrees.

It is not facing people, but it will be much faster to deal with emergencies from this angle.

Seeing his actions, the man's heart sank.

Is a veteran ah!
Then he smiled and said, "Brother, don't be nervous. This is the first time you've come here, right? You can go to the neighborhood and find out, our place is the most fair."

Zhao Chuanliang nodded worriedly, took his things and left.

The other party didn't care when he saw it.

At this time, there was a person nearby who probably sold out of things, picked up the sack and left.

Zhao Chuanliang hurried over with the sack.

There was one person on each side, and there was an iron pot in front of one person, and some clothes and cloths on one side.

At first glance, it is for food, no money.

And in the black market, the best-selling products are of course food. Basically, there are too many monks and too little porridge. As long as you can afford it, it will be sold out soon.

When Zhao Chuanliang took out some meat.

The neighbor glanced at it and couldn't move away immediately.

The man selling old clothes and cloth asked directly, "Brother, do you want to change?"

Zhao Chuanliang looked at it, then shook his head, "I won't change it, I'll take another look."

Let’s forget things like cloth, it’s really too little, only three feet of cloth, and old clothes can be exchanged for one or two liang of his meat.

Then continue to play with his flesh.

The current price of meat is too high. Basically, few people are willing to buy a catty of meat. After all, the hardships of the past few years have emptied most families.

He followed other people's example and divided the meat into one or two pieces and sold them for one yuan.

"Hey, brother, do you want an iron pot? Now iron pots require industrial coupons! This is not too much, I just need three taels of meat, what do you think?"

Zhao Chuanliang took a look.

The iron pot is probably new, and it’s okay, but it’s too small, the kind of small iron pot that’s placed on the stove in the city.

Eighty cents more, if you add industrial coupons, it's justified to change for three taels.

He hesitated for a moment and shook his head: "Two Liang, if you do it, you can do it, if you don't do it, forget it."

If there is no one, three or two will be three or two, and there are many people now.

You can't be a fool yourself.

Hearing his words, the other party was happy for a while.

"Here you are, here you~"

After speaking, he put the iron pot over.

Zhao Chuanliang took it and checked it.

After confirming that there was no problem, he picked up three egg-sized pieces of meat from the sack and handed them to him.

"That's what I called at home."

The man took the meat, weighed it in his hands, felt that it was about the same, and then stood up happily.

He took his things and left.

There was another seat vacant next to it.

Zhao Chuanliang put the iron pot into the sack and continued to wait for the people behind to come.

But seeing the hopeful gaze of the man next to him, he hesitated for a moment, and said, "Two Liang, do you want to change?"

"Change, change!"

The man was overjoyed for a while, and hurriedly gave the things to him.

Then he took two pieces of meat and left happily.

With the completion of the two transactions, people around also spotted the people on the stall, and immediately flocked to them.

One of the aunts asked: "How do you sell this meat? What kind of meat is this?"

Zhao Chuanliang smiled: "This is a wild boar that my family hunted in the mountains. It costs one yuan and one tael."

"It's cheaper, I'll buy more if it's cheaper."

Zhao Chuanliang smiled and shook his head.

Seeing his expression, the other party hesitated for a moment, picked out a handkerchief from his pocket, and picked and picked out a pile of small change from it.

"Here, count it, three yuan, give me three taels."

Seeing this, Zhao Chuanliang took the money and counted it with the help of the faint fire nearby.

A lot of money, all change.

But the number is right.

After confirming that there was no problem, he picked up three pieces of meat from the ground and pushed her: "The money is right, give it."

The aunt took the things and left.

"Hey, give me one or two."

"I want two taels..."

"I want as many as I want."

……

Immediately, people all around opened their mouths, wanting to buy things.

Seeing this, Zhao Chuanliang hurriedly said: "Don't worry, come one by one. If you keep arguing, I won't sell it."

Everyone pretended to shut up.

You one tael, he two taels, and soon sold out the meat on the sack.

He didn't prepare too much, so he prepared three catties.

After the sale, he collected the things, looked at the people who still wanted to buy, and said, "No more! I have to go home, and I will come back in a few days."

Hearing his words, the others were disappointed for a while.

It's rare to come across a meat seller, and it's sold out so quickly.

They could only leave one after another.

As soon as Zhao Chuanliang lifted the sack, he pretended to leave.

The man who had been watching for a while, came back again.

Looking at the vigilant Zhao Chuanliang, he handed a cigarette with a smile: "Brother, let's talk, I hear what you mean, is there any more at home?"

Zhao Chuanliang glanced at him, and they were the ones who paid for all his things just now.

Smiling and shaking his head: "I don't know how to smoke."

Seeing this, the man didn't force himself, looked at the thing in his hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, let's go and talk, you have a thing in your hand! What are you afraid of! Besides, there are so many people in this place. people!"

Zhao Chuanliang pretended to hesitate, but finally nodded.

Follow him to the opponent's team.

There are five people in total, and two of them also have the dick in their hands, and the others don't need to look, they should have it too.

Did not go too close, but stood aside.

He stared at the person who had just pulled him over.

Seeing this, the other party smiled and said, "My name is Shouhou. Listen to my brother, I'm not from the local area, right?"

Zhao Chuanliang smiled.

I really know how to pretend, my half-baked accent will reveal my secrets when I meet people with such fellows.

Seeing that he didn't speak, the thin monkey didn't ask any more questions.

Instead, he asked: "Brother, to be honest, how many things do you have? I have collected them here. If you want money or things, you can mention it. I guarantee that you will be satisfied."

Zhao Chuanliang thought for a while and shook his head: "No money, my father wants me to take the rest of the money to the city and change jobs. I came here today to let me change some money."

The reason why I want to say this is to see if Zhang Wanqing is behind the other party. If not, I will talk about it separately.

Hearing this, the thin monkey thought for a while, meat is hard to come by now.

But because of the policy, jobs are even more difficult to find. If the other party has the confidence to trade meat for a job, it will definitely be a lot.

Seeing that he stopped talking, Zhao Chuanliang was about to leave.

"Hey, don't worry, I'll ask you. Wait a minute!"

After finishing speaking, he hurried back and whispered for a while to the middle-aged man sitting in the back smoking a cigarette.

After a while, the thin monkey came back again.

"Well, brother, the city's management is strict now, and they are all clearing out! You can't find a way out in the city, and basically won't want you if you find it. What if you are caught?"

Hearing this, Zhao Chuanliang was tangled up there.

After looking at it for a while, the thin monkey continued: "How about the steel factory? It's not worse than in the city! The wages are higher than in the city. It's close to home. Are you interested? If so, we can discuss it. , let me ask for you, one day, one day at most."

Zhao Chuanliang naturally knew that what he said was true.

It is better to have roads in the city, but it is really dangerous to have no roads.

Moreover, the salary here is indeed higher than that in the city at the same level. One reason is Shougang, and another reason is that the salary is now divided into regions.

At the same level, there are more suburbs than cities.

Salaries in remote cities are higher than those in central cities, which also encourages everyone to work in difficult places.

Then he pretended to hesitate and asked: "Then I have to go back and ask, by the way, what kind of job is it? Don't be a temporary worker? I have more than 200 catties of meat!"

Hearing this, the other party's eyes lit up, so much?
It has been a week since this month, and I have only collected four or five catties of meat, and one of them is a rabbit.

But he can't be the master either.

As mentioned above, regardless of the cost, work can also be used as a bargaining chip, it depends on the quality of things.

But nothing is said to work.

After all, I have never met such a person!

Then he said with a haha: "Brother, let me tell you the truth, you just said that you have so much meat, and you went to the city, and the city dare not say that it will give you an apprentice!"

Seeing Zhao Chuanliang's hesitation, he smiled and said: "Well, it's still this time tomorrow, you come over again, let's talk about it in detail. What do you think? No, how about you go to another place?"

Zhao Chuanliang pretended to hesitate, and finally nodded in agreement.

"Okay, then I'll come back tomorrow."

Seeing this, the thin monkey said with a smile: "That's all right, you go to work first, and we'll talk about it tomorrow when we meet."

Seeing this, Zhao Chuanliang agreed, and carefully left the grove and disappeared into the darkness.

Watching him leave, the thin monkey pondered for a while, then returned to his team.

Discuss things with people there.
