Free Days in Siheyuan

Chapter 878 Black Market

After Zhang Yu and Zhang Guifang chatted for a while about the Zhou family, they changed the topic and started talking about what they were going to eat tonight.

Zhang Yu proposed to eat pork ribs stewed with lotus root. Zhang Guifang had no objection and just asked: "You just bought pork ribs, but where can I buy lotus root at this time?"

The lotus roots at this time are usually harvested in September to October, and can be harvested in autumn. Of course, there are also some smarter production teams who will leave some of them to dig before the Spring Festival.

The lotus roots dug out at this time are just in time for the Spring Festival and can be sold at a good price.

However, digging before the Spring Festival can only be done in places with a warmer climate. Like here in the north, the lotus root fields are frozen in winter, making it impossible to dig them out.

"Yes, I met someone selling lotus roots some time ago, so I bought some more. After I bought them, I put them directly in the water tank. If I hadn't bought the ribs today, I almost forgot about the lotus roots and didn't know where to put them. Have you kept it for several days and have it gone bad?" Zhang Yu quickly found a reason for taking out the lotus root.

If this reason were given to other people, Zhang Guifang might not believe it. After all, how could he forget the food he bought these days.

But when it comes to Zhang Yu, it is not inconsistent at all. No matter how Zhang Yu disguises himself or tries to integrate into this era, after all, he came back from the era of abundant materials in later generations, and there is a secret space and system behind him. With these two golden fingers, there is no shortage of food at all.

This also resulted in some of his subconscious behaviors being somewhat outrageous in this era.

That is to say, my sister-in-law and the others loved him and knew that he had money. They knew that Zhang Yu had several secret ways to buy things because he had worked as a buyer for a period of time, so they did not have any doubts about this.

However, this is also related to the fact that Zhang Yu has frequently used this reason in the past two years.

In the eyes of Zhang Guifang and others, Zhang Yu has always been generous when it comes to eating, and is willing to spend money, but after buying it, he sometimes forgets about it because he doesn't eat it for a while.

These are all normal, who can still remember things?

Zhang Guifang herself often forgets things. Two days ago, she even forgot that her clothes had been washed and washed the already washed clothes again.

In fact, in the final analysis, all of this is just the reason Zhang Guifang and the others found. The most fundamental thing is that they love Zhang Yu, so they subconsciously ignore all the wrong things, and cover for Zhang Yu intentionally or unintentionally.

For example, at this moment, Zhang Guifang subconsciously ignored when her nephew got the lotus roots he bought? Why didn't she see which water tank the lotus roots she bought were placed in...

He just said very calmly: "It should be fine. Nothing can be broken today. Since there are lotus roots, you can take out two lotus roots later and wash them. I will make the pork rib soup first."

Zhang Yu also said as if nothing was wrong: "Okay, wash two of them first. If the rest are not broken, I will continue to let them sit in the water. After two days, I will find a way to get some oil. Let’s eat fried lotus root boxes.”

Zhang Guifang did not stop this time. It will be the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month in two days. Due to some tacit understanding, every year after the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month, no one will take any chances in the black market or the pigeon market. , staring at it.

After all, the New Year is coming soon, and no matter how bad the year is, every family still has to buy New Year goods.

No matter how poor a family is, they will cut off two taels of meat and eat a meal of dumplings during the New Year.

If they dare to break in and arrest people at this time, they will really offend people severely.

Another one, if others are preparing New Year’s goods, don’t their own families need to prepare them?

If you run to arrest people at this time, if you are not lucky, you might really catch your own family members. Where will their face be put?

This is still good. If we catch a certain leader's family again, then we really don't have to mess around anymore.

After all, it's not like this has never happened before. In the past two years, there was a fool who caught the family members of his leader when he was trying to catch the black market. After what happened at that time, the leader was very sensible and had a good attitude of admitting his mistakes. He took the initiative to pay the fine for the family without anyone else saying it, wrote a letter of guarantee himself, and also made a self-examination at the meeting, showing that he was too busy. work and failed to supervise his family.

During this period, no one else was involved, and everything was carried on by myself.

The other families who went with his family members breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that they had not been confessed, and directly accepted the child's love.

As soon as this incident came out, no one would say that the leader was a person who knew how to get things done.

With this favor and the fact that he was indeed somewhat capable, he was promoted the next year for various reasons.

As for the idiot, some colleagues who were close to him warned him to be careful and be careful of being caught in small shoes. The idiot was worried at first, but when he saw that the leader had no intention of causing trouble for him, not only that, he also praised him several times. , saying that he is an outstanding young man.

Erluzi was very happy at that time. During that time, he acted so proudly that he even went to the colleague who kindly reminded him to show off, saying that the other party didn't think well of him, which made his close colleague very angry.

But what he didn't see was that after this incident, several colleagues who were close to him on weekdays silently stayed away from him.

A year later, Erluzi was transferred to the lower towns without leaving any trace. As for when he could be transferred back again, it would be unless he made great achievements or could get along with someone more powerful than this leader.

But if he is so powerful, how can he look down on a fool like him?

This means that if Er Lunzi wants to come back, it will be far away.

This incident has also alerted everyone that there is no time to arrest the black market, and it must be done at this time.

Since the black market can't be caught at this time, why are you still keeping an eye on it?

Instead of doing this, it's better to be more generous and pretend you didn't see it.

Anyway, it was only a few days before the Chinese New Year, the endurance was over, and they were happy and free.

"Okay, if you can buy it, buy more. If you meet someone selling grain again, buy some too. I'll give you the money later."

Speaking of this, Zhang Guifang couldn't help but sigh: "Uncle Wu and the others are not having a good time either."

Zhang Guifang obviously also knew about Aunt Wu Jiwen's troubles at Director Wu's house.

Zhang Yu nodded. Not to mention his sister-in-law, he was also going to take some food from home during the Chinese New Year. After all, everyone in the family has a big appetite. Even if my sister-in-law and the others saved their food, they would probably eat the food they bought last time. That's almost it.

As for the ones hidden in the courtyard he was rewarded with, hadn't the courtyards been rented out later, and taking them back and forth was not as convenient as before.

Another thing, after such a long period of consumption, there was not much left over there.

Instead of going all out to get it, he might as well "buy" it again, since he doesn't lack food anyway.
