70s Xiao Que Xing

Chapter 391 Going to the Black Market

"Yeah, none of you are willing to learn. Now I have found a successor." Aunt Zheng said happily.

Afterwards, Liu Xu told Xie Xiaonian vividly about the interesting story of Grandma Zheng teaching them embroidery when she was a child.

On the evening of the fourth day of November, Xie Xiaonian realized that after practicing embroidery in the space, she found that the sack of embroidery thread she put in the space had been used up.

And no matter how much she saves on the fabric, she will use up those few bolts of muslin. It seems that she needs to go to the county again.

Thinking that the industrial coupons at home are gone, and there are not many cloth coupons left, Xie Xiaonian is going to go back to his old business and sell some things in the space.

Now that it's winter, vegetables and fruits will definitely be popular.

But this matter cannot be let Zhongjun know, otherwise he will definitely stop him, after all, if he is caught speculating now, he will go to jail.

She was not sure whether she could come back at noon, so she said to Xu Zhongjun: "Zhongjun, the cloth and embroidery thread at home are almost gone. I will go to the county tomorrow, and I may go shopping for a while. I don't know if I can come back at noon." If you can't come back on time, if you don't come back, you can cook your own food!"

Although there was food in Xu Zhongjun's small bowl, it couldn't keep warm, and the pancakes and the others didn't like Zhongjun's cooking very much, so they could only let Zhongjun heat up her cooked meal.

"Well, okay, by the way, isn't the industrial voucher at home gone, why don't I borrow some for you tomorrow!" Xu Zhongjun replied.

"No need, Xiuhong and I borrowed some, enough for us." Xu Zhongjun would not ask Xiuhong about this kind of thing, and Xie Xiaonian was not afraid of being a helper.

"I have to go to the army tomorrow, what are they going to do with Scallions, and let Li Jian's wife watch over them?"

"Well, the scallion needs to be changed and fed milk powder. They take good care of the pancakes. Xiuhong has experience, so it's okay. But don't forget to bring the children back for dinner and lunch break at noon. I will try my best to go there in the afternoon. The troops rushed back, if they didn't come back, you can just send the child to Xiuhong in the afternoon, and I will tell her in the morning." Xie Xiaonian replied.

"Okay, but it didn't take long before you went to the county and you came back, why did it take so long this time?" Xu Zhongjun asked suspiciously.

"It's getting colder and colder, and it will snow frequently in the future. It will be inconvenient to go to the county at that time. I just want to buy more things this time, so that I can save money and run back and forth." Xie Xiaonian made an excuse.

Early the next morning, the family had breakfast early, Xie Xiaonian went to Mrs. Zheng's house to greet her, and after saying that she couldn't come over today, she took the three children to Xiuhong's house with milk powder, feeding bottles, snacks, etc. .

"Mom, don't forget the white rabbit toffee you promised to buy for me yesterday."

Before Xie Xiaonian left, Pancake reminded her.

"Understood, don't worry, mom will never forget." Xie Xiaonian assured.

Seeing the pancakes, Chen Xiuhong wanted to eat white rabbit toffee, and after Xiao Nian left, she said to him: "Auntie has white rabbit toffee at home, just wait, auntie will get it for you!"

After a while, Chen Xiuhong took out a plate of toffee.

"Mom said you can only eat two candies a day, Auntie, put away the rest!" Heping said to Chen Xiuhong after taking two for herself and two pancakes.

"Now that your mother isn't here, you can eat whatever you want. Auntie won't tell your mother!" Chen Xiuhong said with a smile.

"I'll just eat two!" Pancake refused.

"I don't eat too much. Mom doesn't let us eat candy for our own good. We can't steal it behind our backs." Heping said solemnly.

In the space, Xiao Nian made a lot of peanut candies and milk candies, and they didn't hide them deliberately. If they want to steal candies, it's very easy.

But it's a matter of integrity, mom trusts them, they can't let mom down.

"You are all good kids, it's because Auntie is thinking about it, so Auntie will put away the rest!" Chen Xiuhong said with some embarrassment.

At the same time, she also admired Xie Xiaonian's ability to educate children, thinking that she must observe more in the future, and learn more like Xiaonian.

Here, after Xie Xiaonian took the bus to the county, he found a remote place to enter the space just like when he was in his hometown. After disguising himself, he went to find a buyer with his back on his back.

She didn't have time to find people to sell things one by one, so she went directly to the black market.

The small black market that Xie Xiaonian went to was established by gangsters from several counties. It was located in an abandoned alley, with the back against the mountain. The location was hidden and easy to escape.

In addition to being responsible for guarding and collecting some booth fees and protection fees from the sellers, they also resell things. They are a few very experienced dealers.

This is what Xiao Nian specially inquired about in order to sell things on the black market someday.

"Young man, is your eldest brother here?" Xie Xiaonian stepped forward and said to the two young men at the entrance of the alley.

"Who are you? What do you want, ma'am, I advise you to be honest. If you want to buy something, go in and buy it. If you don't buy something, go quickly." One of the thinner young men threatened fiercely.

And his aunt, also called Xie Xiaonian's eyes twitched.

After all, no woman wants others to call her old, so she can only comfort herself with her good camouflage skills.

"I don't buy things, I want to sell things, can you make the decision?" Xie Xiaonian then asked.

"There's nothing that can't be decided, one yuan booth fee." The young man stretched out his hand and said arrogantly.

"I'm not like them, I only sell three melons and two dates, but I want to sell several thousand catties, you are sure not to ask your elder brother to come out." Xie Xiaonian said again in a deep voice.

"It's just you? How many kilos of stuff? You're skinny, sallow and emaciated, it's fine if you don't eat relief food at home, and you sell a few thousand catties of stuff, who would believe it? Go, go, hurry up, don't be here. This is in the way!" The young man drove over with contempt.

"This is your place, do you think I will lie to you? What good does that do me?"

If he didn't want to sell the things quickly, Xie Xiaonian really didn't want to get entangled with this person here.

"Okay, I'll report. If you dare to tell lies, I won't spare you." Another person said threateningly.

"Don't worry, your elder brother will only praise you." Xie Xiaonian said with great presence.

"It's better to be like this." After finishing speaking, the man walked into the depths of the alley.

After a while, a middle-aged man came out.

"You just want to sell things, come with me." The middle-aged man looked at Xiao Nian and said directly.

Xie Xiaonian followed this man around for a while, and came to an abandoned yard.

After entering, I saw a man with a scar on his face sitting on the seat in the main room.

"You want to sell something? What are you selling? How much?" After Xie Xiaonian came in, the scarred man asked directly.

And when he was talking, he still touched the dagger in his hand intentionally or unintentionally, wanting to show off Xie Xiaonian.

"Before I answer, I need to explain that I need a lot of industrial coupons, cloth tickets, and a bicycle ticket. Can you get me all these?" Xie Xiaonian asked directly, ignoring his pressure.

The other things in the house are enough and there is no need to change them. What she is most in need of now are industrial coupons and cloth tickets.

As for the bicycle, Xie Xiaonian wanted to buy it for Xu Zhongjun.

He can't teleport in space. If he has a bicycle, he can move by himself, and he doesn't have to do anything to bring it with him.

"As long as you have what I want, there is no ticket that I can't get." The man with the scar said confidently.

He felt that Xie Xiaonian was a rural woman who had a little food surplus at home but no tickets, and wanted to use the food in exchange for ticket counting. He had seen a lot of people like this.

"I have 3000 catties of wheat, 1000 catties of rice, 200 catties of vegetables, 400 catties each of apples, oranges and pears, can you buy them all at once? I don't sell them in bulk. If I can't buy them all, I'll go find the next buyer " Xie Xiaonian said directly.

"What?" The man with the scar couldn't sit still anymore, and stood up in surprise.

Although they often resell grain, and the amount is not small, they really didn't expect the old woman in front of them to be able to produce so much grain.

And it's winter now, so she still has so many vegetables.

In addition, they don't produce rice at all, so it's incredible that they can get a thousand catties of rice.

After the man with the scar was surprised, he realized that he had made a fuss just now, so he straightened his collar, sat back down again, and said to Xie Xiaonian: "It's just a few things, I want them all, you can ask for a price."

After the man with the scar finished speaking, he gestured to the middle-aged man just now with his eyes, obviously he didn't have any good idea.

Although Xie Xiaonian saw his movements, she acted as if she hadn't. She believed that she had the ability to protect herself.

"You are well-informed, and you should also know that oranges and rice are not produced here. It takes a lot of effort to transport them from the south, so oranges cost one yuan a catty, and rice costs fifty cents a pound." catty."

Rice can be sold for at least [-] cents a catty in the black market, the price Xie Xiaonian sells is really not expensive.

As for the oranges, none of them were sold in the supply and marketing cooperative. If they bought the oranges, it would be their only business, and it was up to them to decide how much they wanted to sell.

So the man with the scar did not bargain with Xie Xiaonian, and agreed directly.

"In addition, wheat costs [-] cents a catty, apples [-] cents, and pears [-] cents." Seeing that the other party agreed so readily, Xiao Nian continued without hesitation.

"No, pears are too expensive. Before, you could buy two catties for ten cents." The man with the scar disagreed.

"You also said, that was before, what time is it now, it's winter now, just my fresh pears, after a while, you won't be able to buy them for four cents, that's how I set the price, you see you agree Don't agree." Xie Xiaonian said without negotiating.

"Okay, you continue." The man with the scar said after taking a breath.

"Then there are vegetables. You know it's winter now, and it's not easy to grow vegetables in greenhouses, so vegetables cost [-] cents a catty. Don't tell me about the vegetables before, you can buy a catty for two cents. It's winter now, and the charcoal fire money I spent on the greenhouse alone is more than this price." Xie Xiaonian said directly without giving the other party room to bargain.
