The Treasure Hunt of an Antique Dealer

The free market is relatively rich in materials, and you have everything you need to eat, drink and use, as long as you have enough money: the price of basic living materials here is a bit more expensive than in state-owned shopping malls.

There are people in the corner as if they are engaged in underground work. The group of people are privately exchanging foreign exchange and precious metals. Such scenes have been seen in other Soviet cities.

Alyosha went over in a big way, and asked those who showed a guarded look what the current dollar price was.

As long as you don’t spend too many dollars at one time, no one here dares to make his mind: a strong man wearing shoes nearly two meters high, or a kind of horrible face, fools can see that this guy is not easy to mess with, or The most nasty one!

Not a good person, at least in the eyes of this group of people, they are not the police who raid the black market. They simply don't evade him. There is no reason not to do the door-to-door business.

Last year, the official market price was 1 to 0.9, which is still worth the ruble, and the black market price ratio is already 1 to 3: The ruble has actually depreciated ten times, but why is there still such a price comparison in the black market?

Don't know how to bully Alyosha?

No, this is a fair price!

Depreciation is relative. The prices of commodities in state-owned shopping malls have not changed, but longer queues are required.

Coupled with banks' restrictions on the amount of withdrawals and lack of materials, the people began to distrust the money in their hands.

In fact, prices have not changed much.

This hoarding of a little dollar is to prevent the possible large-scale depreciation of the ruble in the future, and the foreign exchange in the hands of ordinary people is actually very small, and it is impossible to speculate.

The common people are not high-level people. Those high-level people are hoarding large amounts of foreign exchange to prevent the ruble in their hands from suddenly becoming waste paper one day.

The current situation in Soviet society is still low prices, especially for agricultural products, that is, queuing, queuing, and then queuing in the formal market!

There are not many things to buy.

Money can't buy enough necessities, which is also a depreciation.

Prices have not increased much compared to two years ago, so for ordinary people, foreign exchange is actually not very useful.

The dollar is very important, and that is for officials.

Alyosha didn't change much, only 180 dollars, or four crumpled 20 dollars bills plus Franklin.

Change the money, because he is fond of a car, a car that can be sold.

He is a foreigner and lives in a railway hotel nearby. People who are on the black market don't have to worry about him messing around.

It's the same with him. No one will provoke a big guy who is not easy to mess with just for more than a month's salary.

This amount of foreign exchange is just right.

And not only the car, Alyosha also has to buy other things, people have to eat, he doesn't have the habit of long lines, and he doesn't have that time.

Food prices in the free market are much higher than those in the regular market, but at least there is no need to queue.

For many years, the supply of consumer goods in the Soviet Union was more difficult to predict than the weather (at least the weather had a forecast). In order to deal with this situation, the Soviets had long created a whole set of countermeasures.

Alyosha is a Chinese in his bones, but these days he has tried to adapt to the current reality from the perspective of a traditional Soviet.

Bring more money in your pocket: it's not that you have enough money to be straight, but you don't know when you can spend the money!

The Soviets are not short of money, at least for most people (if they get it from the bank), but apart from unnecessary waste, "there is no place to spend money" is not empty talk.

When a Soviet woman saw someone in line, her instinctive reaction was to queue in immediately. She didn't even know what was selling inside.

As long as they see someone rushing into the queue in front of them, others will naturally think that there must be something worth queuing up for.

As for what to sell, it doesn't matter; get in the queue before talking, and then inquire about what to sell.

At least when you get to the front, you will know what you are selling, and maybe the people in front will tell you something before that.

But there is no need to line up to buy some things in the Soviet Union: heavy industrial products!

Alyosha does not have enough rubles on hand to think about buying a Volga car, even if it will buy a new Lada, it is not appropriate, because he is not Mrs. Harco.

Look for second-hand ones.

But there is no second-hand car in the free market. Even if there is, there will be a transfer problem, and then...

Shortly after entering the market, he saw his goal: a three-wheeled car.

The black Ural M72, well maintained, is right next to a black market liquor stall.

After 20 minutes, the car returned to Alyosha, and he planned to ride this familiar motorcycle to Finland.

As for the stall owner...you just need to get another one. Motorcycles are not yet in short supply in the Soviet Union.

It's summer now, the Soviet holiday season, and many people travel on motorcycles.

A guy from northern Russia bought a second-hand motorcycle and rode home in East Uzbekistan. This is not common, but it is not surprising that it makes people particularly suspicious.

Alyosha bought another almost brand-new second-hand windbreaker in the market, goggles, gloves, and an old-fashioned Red Army helmet that can be used as a safety helmet. He also bought an old-fashioned binoculars, which is probably very popular when hanging around his neck. .

No more delays, go back to the hotel, put on a windbreaker, bring a backpack and return to the room, and set off.

Backpack in the car body: The suitcase is shock-proof, the top shock-proof performance among military weapons, it is estimated that it will be fine to drop from the top of the fifth floor.

The predecessor of the Ural M72 was the Nazi BMW R71. Alyosha ridden the Yangtze River 750, which imitated it from China, with a displacement of more than 760 milliliters.

With four forward gears plus a reverse gear, it can reach a speed of 16 kilometers per hour when moving backwards. A very practical motorcycle with a large displacement, but its fuel consumption is a bit higher.

But it doesn't matter, the Soviet Union is not short of gas, and the rubles in Alyosha's pocket are enough for gas.

Entering Russia from East Uzbekistan, it was all the way north, more than a thousand kilometers, and arrived in two and a half days.

Without entering Leningrad, he went straight to Vipri, not far from the border.

Staying at a resort hotel, because Alyosha saw a lot of Leningrad-photographed cars here, it wouldn't be too surprising for a more unusual holiday guest to be here.

Put the backpack in the room and ride a motorcycle to the border area: Just as the four former agents said before, now Finland, as a neutral country, has good relations with the Soviet Union and NATO.

"God is too far, the Soviet Union is too close", the border between the two countries is long, Alyosha ran a few points, and carefully observed with binoculars ~www.readwn.com~ no sentinels from both sides were patrolling.

The barbed wire can only be regarded as remains, and there will be no minefields.

That night, Alyosha removed the motorcycle license, abandoned the car a few kilometers away from the border, and pushed the motorcycle into a small lake on the side of the road.

"Unfortunately, this is a good car!"

Burned all unnecessary documents, crossed the border on foot, and arrived in Imatra early the next morning.

He is an American from now on, looking like he is going back to Helsinki on a hiking trip.

If you don’t take public transportation, Americans habitually find a taxi to go to Helsinki.

The driver was happy to accept US dollars and sent him directly to a good hotel.

But Alyosha didn't live here, and when the car left, he moved to another hotel on foot before staying.

Wait, or wait, a few days later, after confirming that there is no danger again, then Thomas was contacted.

...

This would be in the manor’s underground warehouse, Guan Xingquan said about the suitcase.

"...Put it there?"

Nicole is here too. As the hostess, she should know about it.

Then……

Before Zhang Nan spoke, Nicole said, "Ellen, have you thought about getting a nuclear bomb?"

Zhang Nan smiled bitterly, "To be honest, I want to get one, but I never thought it could be done."

"Bring it back, you only have one now, so you have to put it in the safest and most threatening place." Nicole paused, and then said: "I think the Empire State Building is good. The entire Manhattan and the entire United States will be our amulet.

When the rest is out of the Soviet Union, and then take away the boxes in the building, don't put them in New York. "

It is not impossible to control a super financial company!

One nuclear bomb is hard to get off; ten nuclear bombs are as stable as Mount Tai!
