Chapter 40 The Big Collection
The new year has passed, and the heavy snow finally stopped. There was a market a year ago, and then it was the New Year.

Li Chunlan was going to the market, not for anything else, she wanted to sell the gold ring in exchange for medicinal materials to treat Li Dongbao's illness.

Before leaving, Grandpa Li came to the door and handed Li Chunlan a cloth bag, which contained dried hair vegetables and two sand chickens. "These things are not many, and it is not enough to change the fabric. Come back for some candies and snacks!"

Li Dongbao also took out three yuan and asked Li Chunlan to buy a piece of fabric.

You can only get work points for farming, and if you want to buy something you like, you can only barter. Li Chunlan agreed, picked up the cloth bag, and went to the market together with the fat lady next door.

The snow on the ground is still very thick, but fortunately, everyone is wearing thick clothes, and everyone is like a bear, and they are not afraid of falling down. Just walking happily, a few miles will arrive soon.

Because it was the last episode of the previous year, there were so many people. Even the supply and marketing cooperatives in the city came to sell goods on glass counters.

"Chunlan, I have some eggs in my hand. I have to sell them before I can buy anything." The fat aunt let out a long sigh of relief. She was more tired than others on this journey. If she slipped, the eggs in her hand would be scrapped. There is nowhere to find candy for children during the Chinese New Year.

Li Chunlan looked at the market, and the shoppers were roughly divided into areas. Agricultural and sideline products such as eggs and food are all in the northeast. What she bought was dried sand chicken, and she needed to sell them in the northwest corner, "Fat aunt, you Go sell it, we'll meet again later!"

After breaking up with Aunt Fat, Li Chunlan didn't rush to set up a stall in the northwest, but walked around the market. She heard that there would be places to buy and sell valuables in such markets, and she had to find this place.

Turning around, Li Chunlan found that there were a few people standing on the sandy ground behind a clump of red willow branches, looking very sneaky, it should be a place for reselling valuables.

Those few people stared in awe. If it wasn't for Li Chunlan's past life experience, she really wouldn't dare to join such a group of people.

She was sullen, and wrapped the red scarf up, covering her delicate face, revealing only a pair of dark eyes, and then went around to the sandy ground.

Those young people were obviously in the same group. After seeing Li Chunlan, they all became interested. A middle-aged young man coughed and walked over, "Sister, do you have something to do?"

Li Chunlan's heart was pounding loudly. It is not allowed to do small business without permission now. Once caught, she would be classified as speculators, so her behavior was still a bit risky. She looked around cautiously, and then lowered her voice. "Are you taking the gold ring?"

The middle-aged man immediately brightened his eyes, "Accept, this price." He stretched out his left hand towards Li Chunlan, with his thumb and little finger straight, and the middle three bent.

When Li Chunlan saw it, she was a little dazed, what did the other party mean by gesturing?
Seeing her expression, the young man knew that this was the first time the girl had come to this kind of place. He whistled lightly, put his hands in his trouser pockets without making any gestures, and said, "Six yuan a gram, Look at the specific color!"

Li Chunlan doesn't know how much gold should be sold for. After all, this is an era of material scarcity, and she grew up in a remote village. Now she is very happy to see someone buying it.

She turned around, took out the ring from the small pocket inside the padded jacket, and put it in the palm of her hand for the middle-aged man to see, "Look, don't take it!"
