The era of farming is so sweet

Chapter 13 13. The Black Market
The old man picked up a chopstick of pickled vegetables first, and before he put them in his mouth, he smelled a hot and sour smell that stimulated his taste buds.

Put the pickle in your mouth.The delicious taste from the tip of the tongue is really delicious.

"Today's pickles are really delicious. It's so fragrant."

Just another mouthful of pickles with steamed buns.

Others picked up chopsticks of pickles one after another, and the taste was really different from usual.

Grandma Yang finished chewing the pickles in her mouth, "Today's pickles are made by our Xia Xia, they are really delicious. But..."

Turning to look at Zhixia, "Xiaxia, what did you put in, those are our seasonings, why do you mix them so delicious."

The more natural seasonings you have, the better the taste. In this era, there are only oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, and chicken essence has not yet been born.

Facing grandma's question, I'm fooling around, since I'm young anyway.

"I didn't put anything, just the seasonings in the kitchen, but I put shallots and sesame oil, so it tastes much better."

There is only so much sesame oil in a year.Grandma is usually a baby.

So it's delicious, maybe it's because you put sesame oil yourself.

I heard that Zhixia put sesame oil.Although it hurts a bit, it is enough for everyone to eat well.

"Our Xia Xia is really talented. This is the first time we cook so delicious."

Hearing grandma praise herself, Zhixia smiled back sweetly.

"After that, I helped grandma cook together."

Take the opportunity to make a request, so that she can secretly move her hands and feet.Let everyone make up for it.

Hearing Zhixia's words, Grandma Yang smiled happily, "Okay, okay. We Xiaxia are the most sensible."

Everyone had a good meal.Steamed buns and porridge are all gone.

After dinner, Zhixia washes up in the yard, getting ready for bed.

Looking at the brightly lit look next door.

Come to think of it, that cheap cousin didn't dare to find me recently.

It was raining heavily and asked the original owner to deliver things.I really have the heart.

Since the original owner was sick, the people next door didn't come to the door.It is estimated that he has a guilty conscience.

He poured water into the vegetable field and went back to his room.

Grandma is lighting a candle over there.A faint light came through from there.

After eating, candles are lit at home to save electricity.

There is wind at the door.The blown curtain shook slightly, and the candlelight flickered slightly.

The watch on his hand is luminous, shining bright spots in the dark.

Check the time, it's only 08:30.

I slept for a long time in the afternoon, and I didn't feel drowsy at all.But I can't enter the space.

Otherwise, this is the point of going in and coming out.

In his mind, he recalled the body training technique that Shaka had passed on to him.

Follow the steps above and practice slowly.

It seems simple, but it is not ideal to do it.Always not in place.

While she was doing it, Shaka corrected in her head.

It wasn't until she was two hours old that she memorized all the movements of level one and was able to do them coherently.

Go back and practice more.

The hour hand slowly moved towards 10:30.Zhixia saw that the time was almost up.Say 'good night' to Shaka.

I fell into dreamland.

There was no dream all night, and when I woke up, the sky was dark blue.

This is the sun is also slowly getting up.

Check the time, it's 05:30.

I won't sleep anymore.Put on all your clothes and get ready to exercise.

Put on the black sweatpants you took out yesterday.It has good toughness and is suitable for running and exercising.

The upper body is a dark blue shirt of the original owner.

Put the army green bag on the table on your back.Quietly lift the curtain.

I saw my grandma sitting by the bed and putting on her shoes.

Through the faint light and the movement of Zhixia.

Grandma Yang turned her gaze to Zhixia, "Xiaxia, why did you get up so early?? What are you going to do?"

Hearing grandma's voice suddenly, Zhixia was startled.

Pa pat his chest, to soothe his thumping heart.

"Grandma. I can't sleep. I'm going to go out for a run to exercise."

"Then be careful."

After giving an order, Zhixia responded and went out.

I washed it with cold water in the yard, and then took out a leather rope from the space.

Pull off the top decorations.Only a black circle remains.

He combed his hair with his hands and tied it into a ponytail.

He opened the door, ran out of the alley along the bluestone slab, and turned to the left.

Run as you please.

After running for about half an hour, Shaka suddenly stopped.

"Wait a minute, I feel energy fluctuations."

Zhixia stopped abruptly.

energy? ?So soon there is a clue.

He continued to communicate with Shaka in his mind.

"The fluctuation of energy?? Where is it?"

"It's not far from here. Just walk straight through the street ahead."

According to Shaka's words, Zhixia continued to walk forward.

When it was almost at the end, he leaned against the corner of the wall and slowly poked his head out, wanting to see the situation.

Everything is still careful.

The sight in front of him slowly shifted along the wall to the scene behind the corner.

There is a huge old locust tree not far between.

There are many people around.Some walked alone, and some gathered in twos and threes, as if discussing something.

From time to time, return to the other party to see his bag.

This is...the black market?
A unique way of trading in this era.

The state strictly prohibits any private transactions.

Of course, there are policies above and countermeasures below.If it doesn't work on the surface, then it will be done in private.

Usually, a place is agreed upon, and everyone conducts transactions when the weather is not yet clear.

Could it be that someone here has Shaka's so-called energy? ?
What should that be?

In his mind, Shaka urged, "Hurry up and go there. If the energy is taken away later, I don't know when it will be encountered."

Shaka was in a hurry.

"Don't be impatient. We just rushed over like this. What should we do if those people are scared away? It's not worth the loss. I'll think of a complete solution first."

After answering Shaka's words, he concentrated on looking at the person not far away.

Got it! !
Since it is a black market, things should be exchanged, and it happened that a lot of things were loaded yesterday.

Looking at the small bag on my body, it really can't hold much.

Meditate in your head.

Get yourself a big hiking bag.

It's full of rice noodle oil, just grab some money when you're looking for energy.

I don't lack anything in supplies, but I don't have any money, tickets or anything like that.

And in this era, buying things is all based on a ticket, so it's better to prepare some yourself.

Pack your backpack, squat down and put it on your shoulders.

Just about to get up, but before standing up, he squatted down again.

"what's wrong with you?"

Seeing that Zhixia is all done.Not leaving yet.

"It's too heavy for me to carry."

Also, such a big bag of rice noodles weighs a bit.

Shaka gave her a supercilious look, then flew behind Zhixia, putting all the weight on his body.

Zhixia easily picked up her backpack this time.

Then put your hair up and put on a hat.

He took out a black mask and put it on, then walked towards the person who made the deal.
