Jia's daughter-in-law of Zhen Hanzi's family

Chapter 38 Good place

Along the way, Jiahao secretly worried that the other party would take a fancy to her beauty and try to abduct her.

It wasn't until I got on Erjie Hu's bicycle and followed her to the black market in a small alley extending in all directions, that I felt that I was lucky. If I was in such a remote place, I would definitely not find it.

Although the black market is illegal.

But people with money in their pockets cannot do without the black market.

Especially now that department stores can supply less food and oil every month, and if you have money and tickets, you may not be able to buy what you want, and if you don’t have tickets, you can’t go to the supply and marketing cooperative store to buy them.

However, the existence of a black market is tacitly understood by everyone.

Even public servants would come here to do some sneaky shopping when they took off their uniforms.

Second Sister Hu pointed to the front and smiled at Jia Hao: "Did you see what they were holding? If you want anything, just ask."

Maybe because she thought that she was taking care of her own business, she reminded her a few words in a low voice, and when she turned to leave, she added: "Remember to bargain."

This silly girl would not bargain for an egg as small as her own, which made her not used to someone who was familiar with bargaining.

Jiahao took the big bag and nodded obediently.

She felt that she hadn't brought an egg bag, and Suzi was really wrong.

I bought eight eggs from Second Sister Hu, and I spent one yuan including the old big scorpion for holding the eggs.

Fortunately, the second sister Hu has almost sold all the eggs, and the rest are eight smaller eggs that were picked by others.

Jia took a good look at Second Sister Hu dragging her bicycle and quickly disappeared into the alley, and then she began to look around vigilantly.

She found that people who sell things in the black market are very vigilant, and most of them only have a few things in their hands.

For example, there are four or five eggs in the old bamboo hat in the hand, or two canned oranges in the basket, or there are good things like brown sugar, red dates, and white sugar in the bag.

Even more creative is selling wild game.

Whether it is pheasants, wild ducks or domesticated chickens and ducks, they are all "tied and sealed with five flowers" and put in a basket, or in a snakeskin bag, so that the chickens and ducks will not crow.

It cannot be denied that the black market has a rich variety, there is no shortage of chickens and ducks, as well as wild rabbits, and pork and mutton look relatively fresh.

Jia Haohao has been eating meat for the past two days, but he still swallowed his saliva when he saw the meat.

Asking the price almost drove her crazy.

I asked at the meat stall in the store that it was fifty cents a catty, but now it costs two yuan a catty in the black market. Isn't this a scam?

Seeing that she was about to leave, the uncle who sold the butcher hurriedly said, "Big sister, I don't think it's expensive. I don't need a meat ticket. If I wasn't in a hurry to go back, I would have sold it at two yuan and two cents a catty at first."

Jia hesitated for a moment. He saw that there was indeed no good meat on the butcher stall in the store, so it was useless for him to have a meat ticket.

With a thought, 33 extra eggs came out of the big pan, and she lifted the coarse cloth and asked in a low voice, "Uncle, can I use eggs instead?"

The uncle who sold the butcher really remembered that his mother-in-law asked him to buy eggs back home, so he asked, "How do you change it?"

When Jia Haohao heard that there was a door, he asked for a price: "One dime is an egg. I have 41 here. Calculated by forty, can you get two catties of meat for you?"

"It's fine." The uncle saw that her eggs were not small, and she wanted to change the meat, so he didn't bargain with her, so he weighed the meat with a scale: "There are two catties and six taels, you can give it to me again." One yuan and two cents."

Jiahao took out the money again, but the big basket was for eggs, and meat could not be put in the satchel, so he asked, "Uncle, do you know where there is a small basket for sale?"

"Hey, you are really asking the right person." He pointed to the opposite side in front of him: "The wine sellers sell these back baskets and small scorpions, scorpions, dustpans, etc."

After speaking, he packed his things and left in a hurry.

Jiahao put another [-] eggs into the big basket and came to the door. Not only did he exchange five eggs for a small basket as he wished, but he also sold the other fifteen eggs to others.

When she went out, she found a few middle-aged elder sisters with baskets on their shoulders and clean clothes, and they leaned over and asked in a low voice if they wanted eggs.

Her eggs look big and red, but they are also very popular. Some want ten, and some want twenty, and they quickly sell two hundred.

Later, Xiaoqi reminded her that there were only 217 points left, and she didn't dare to change any more. She was also worried that it would be too late, so she left the black market soon.

When she got to the car, she spent another three points to exchange for three white flour steamed buns and put them in her satchel, planning to take them for lunch.

When she went back, she saw Li Weihong squinting her eyes and dozing off on the mule cart, but she was also very vigilant, so she opened her eyes when she heard the movement, and saw that she had a new small pannier on her back and a big scorpion in her hand. So helpless: "Why are you shopping again?"

"Buy some and go home to satisfy the children's hunger." She took out white flour steamed buns from her satchel and handed them to her: "Should I just eat a little?"

Li Weihong saw that the big pan she put down was empty, and the pannier she was carrying was new. Seeing that there was nothing in it, Li Weihong thought she had misunderstood her. Pass it to her: "You drink your saliva first."

Jia Haohao was not polite, took the water bottle, raised his head to drink, being careful not to touch the mouth of the bottle, and handed it back to her after drinking enough: "Master Zhen hasn't come out yet? It's almost twelve o'clock."

Li Weihong took a few sips of water before saying: "I came out earlier, after feeding the mules, I said to go outside."

As soon as the words fell, I saw Uncle Zhen coming over with his hands behind his back, came to them and handed them two oranges, with a kind smile on his wrinkled face: "Someone gave it to me, I'm afraid of acid, you take it eat."

After the two made oranges, they smiled and thanked: "Thank you uncle."

"It's not a good thing, let's go, we will pick up people and prepare to go home."

~~
Along the way, listening to the old lady's business and family's complaints, when I returned to Nanshanwu in a bumpy mule cart, it was almost four o'clock.

At this point, everyone in the educated youth spot was working in the fields.

Li Weihong packed a bag of brown sugar in his satchel and went to the head of the brigade's house, saying that he was going to sell fakes, and inquired about something by the way.

Jia Haohao would definitely not follow without a wink, and taking advantage of the lack of people, she hurried out with a basket on her back and two snakeskin bags.

She first went to the old house where the brothers and sisters of the Zhen family lived, and saw Erniu Zhen and He Jianping rummaging through dried beans and dried gourds on the bamboo mat in the yard.

"Sister Hao Hao is here." Seeing that Jia Hao Hao was carrying too many things, He Jianping hurried up to help: "I'll carry them."

It is said that the children of the poor are in charge of their homes early.

Although she was young, she knew that her cousin had paid too much for them. She wished she could grow up now and earn work points by herself, so as not to be dragged down by the two oil bottles of herself and her brother.
