It's said to be a black market, but it's actually just a remote alley surrounded by dilapidated houses, some of which have no one living inside.
There are few people coming here, and over time it has become an underground trading market, that is, a black market.
Wherever there are people, there is demand. Things in supply and marketing cooperatives are not only supplied in limited quantities but also sold on a ticket basis. As a result, there is a black market.
Su Ruanruan had also been to the black market in her previous life. She didn't know much about the black market, but at least she knew how to hide herself.
After dressing up in disguise, she has a lot of room for treasures. Even if she is targeted by someone with intentions, there are many ways to escape.
When we arrived at the alley where the black market was, we saw some people already inside.
Su Ruanruan remained silent and found a corner to stand, so that if anything happened, she could turn around and run away.
Not long after she stood still, a woman with short hair came over carrying a basket, "Sister, what do you have in this basket?"
This woman was in her forties or fifties. Her clothes were not old, but there were no patches. At first glance, she could tell that her family was in pretty good condition.
Su Ruanruan lowered her voice and asked instead, "What do you want?"
The woman didn't care if she didn't get the answer she wanted. She stared at the basket in front of Su Ruoruan for a long time, then moved closer and whispered, "My daughter-in-law just gave birth to a baby and is in confinement. I want to Order some millet and eggs to replenish her health."
Su Ruoran nodded, reached into the basket, and took out one thing after another, "Two kilograms of millet, ten eggs, and a kilogram of thin noodles."
This is all good stuff!
The woman stared at the cloth bag in Su Ruanruan's hand with bright eyes, and asked impatiently, "Sister, what are you going to change these things for?"
Su Ruoruan had already made a plan in her mind, and she said it without any hesitation when she heard the words, "Millet costs two yuan per catty to buy two catties of food stamps, eggs cost ten cents each to buy half a catty of food stamps, and noodles cost five yuan each. A pound of food stamps."
The price she wanted was ten times more expensive than the price at the supply and marketing cooperative, but in the black market, this was a perfectly normal price.
Sure enough, when the woman heard this, she started to pay for food stamps without saying a word.
The two paid the money and delivered the goods. After each inspection, they determined that there was no problem, and the woman quickly left with the basket.
The movement on their side also attracted the attention of a few people.
Next, two or three more people came over, and Su Ruoruan also sold them some refined grains or noodles and eggs.
After completing another transaction, Su Ruanruan put the basket on her back, turned around and left quickly.
The alleys here were complicated, and after turning a few turns, Su Ruanruan was completely away from the black market.
She didn't go to the public toilet anymore. She found a shabby house with no door and got in. She took off Grandma Chen's clothes and headscarf, and took out the basin of water she had prepared before, taking out her hands and face. After washing myself, I put my backpack on my back and walked out.
When Su Ruanruan was having a great time making money on the black market and earning food stamps, Xiao Chengjin also came to town.
Xiao Chengjin went to Su's house after breakfast, planning to go to town with Su Ruanruan.
Who knew that when they arrived at Su's house, they would see a big lock hanging on the door of Su's house.
There was no one in the Su family, so it was easy to know that Su Ruanruan must have gone to town.
Xiao Chengjin didn't have time to think of anything else, so he headed towards the town.
But when he arrived in town, his eyes darkened.
The town is big or small, so it's really not easy to find someone.
