Travel through 1972 with a space mall

After leaving Zhao Yingcai's house, Su Jiao found a corner and went into the space to change her clothes. She specially changed into old clothes that were a little white after being washed with a lot of puddings. She carried a backpack with the things she had prepared in advance and bowed slightly. Came to the scrap station.

The lady at the scrap yard got excited when she saw the basket behind Su Jiao. It was time to make extra money.

Su Jiao was very sensible and kind and gave her five cents.

The aunt lowered her voice and asked: "Sister, do you have any goods for sale? What are they? Are there any fine grains? I want to buy some."

Su Jiao looked at her in confusion when she heard this. She was helping guard the door at the black market, and she was still worried about not being able to buy fine grains. It was already past nine o'clock, and there must be many people in the black market. Why did she think of asking her to buy fine grains now? Fraud?

Su Jiao instantly became alert.

The aunt saw her doubts and quickly took her arm. As if she was sure she had fine food, she continued to explain, "Sister, don't be afraid. My youngest son is on a business trip, and all the food stamps at home are exchanged for him." I got the national food stamps and took them away. My family hasn’t had a bite of refined grains for more than half a month. My grandson’s birthday is coming soon and I want to give him some refined grains.

In our small place, people are reluctant to eat fine grains, so how can they be willing to sell them inside?

I asked those who had just entered. They didn’t have any refined grains. They only had some eggs, homespun cloth, some vegetables and mountain products, as well as loaches and crucian carp seeds caught from the creek. They were all ordinary things.

If you have any fine grain, you can sell some to me, my elder sister. "

What the aunt said was sincere and did not sound like lies.

The original owner was only fourteen years old when he was in junior high school. He didn't have the courage to come to the black market yet, so he only found out about it from a few male classmates secretly whispering about it.

Originally, she thought it was similar to the county town, but after hearing what the aunt said, she was a little uninterested and had no expectations for it.

However, she came here even if she didn't get the business in vain, but she still maintained the due vigilance.

She sighed and lowered her voice: "Sister, it's not easy. My son, who is in junior high school and is not good enough, is clamoring for me to make him new clothes. How can we have money at home? He is so annoying. Now, there's just a little bit of wheat left that I haven't been willing to eat. I asked my man to grind it for flour. I asked others that I could exchange things here, so I thought I'd try my luck here. I heard what you said. Is there any replacement for homespun cloth? That’s great, I’ll go see if I can get some replacement.”

When the aunt heard this, she immediately regretted that she had just said too much, and quickly stopped her, "Oh, oh, eldest sister, wait a minute, what's so good about that homespun cloth? I still have some cloth tickets here, how about you go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy it? , cheaper and safer than inside. You don’t have many things, so I’ll take them all, so you don’t even have to go in.”

Su Jiao thought the same thing. It was her first time coming to the black market in the commune, and she would definitely not be targeted.

But looking at the five cents she gave her in the aunt's hand, Su Jiao still felt unhappy.

She pretended to be ignorant and asked: "Okay, sister, but I don't know what the price is here. Please check it for me first. I'll go in and ask before I come to you."

How could the lady of the scrap yard let her in like this? The fine grains were so popular. She was sure to miss her when she got in. She raised her other hand to pull her, then she remembered that she still had five cents in her hand, so she quickly returned the money to Su. Jiao, pulled her and walked into the scrap station, muttering in a low voice as she walked, "Sister, I know the price inside, don't worry, you are a real person, my sister will never take advantage of you.

The gatekeeper won't accept your money. After a while, when she finishes buying it, you can go in and ask about the price. I won't charge you any money. I sit here every day, how can I lie to you? "

After getting the money back, Su Jiao was satisfied and followed her into the courtyard.

Fortunately, she planned to come over to test the water, so there was only five kilograms of white flour and some dried fungus mushrooms in it, but nothing else.

Su Jiao opened the lid of the backpack, and the aunt smiled when she looked at Bai Mian.

I was glad that I had stopped it, otherwise there would be no hair left on Su Jiao's five kilograms when she came out.

"Sister, the price of the white flour inside is 23 cents with a ticket. I don't have any food stamps, so I'll give you a cloth ticket. I need five kilograms of white flour. Can you check it out?"

Su Jiao nodded and said with a naive smile: "Okay, just follow what the elder sister said."

In the county town, what she sells is 30 cents with a ticket, and the price is only 25 cents after negotiation. Here, she is charged 23 cents, but everyone came here, and the price is acceptable. She made it clear that she wanted to enter the black market. , this aunt should be telling the truth.

After the white noodles were settled, the aunt was able to look at the mountain goods in the basket. Seeing that the quality was good, she bought some dry goods.

After settling the money and goods with her aunt, she carried the remaining goods into the black market.

I was mentally prepared just now, but I was still disappointed when I actually came in.

There were not many people inside, and the things sold were exactly as the aunt outside said. I didn’t know if all the black market spots in the commune were like this or just this one.

She finally knew why the aunt was so enthusiastic about her.

Fine grains are indeed hard to come by.

Finally, she bought some homespun cloth and planned to go back and make sweatshirts for her family and left.

The aunt saw her coming out and chatted with her enthusiastically for a few words before letting her go.

Su Jiao strolled in the opposite direction of the village and walked to the path into the village. After making sure that no one was following her, she got into the cornfield and entered the space where she changed her clothes and took off her makeup.

On the way to the agricultural machinery station, she was thinking about it. It seemed that reselling at the black market in the commune was not realistic.

These mountain goods are not valuable, and it is too conspicuous for her to take those things out to the black market at the scrap station, and the price is even lower than in the county town.

She now misses her aunts at the county fertilizer factory.

I don’t know if the danger mentioned by Meng Long in the county town has passed.

Binyang County Public Security Bureau.

Meng Long came to Deputy Director Sun Baoguo's office with one arm hanging on his arm, and shouted as he entered the room.

"Uncle Sun, is there any news from Qian Hu?"

Sun Baoguo rubbed his temples and said, "No, I didn't let you recuperate at home. Why are you here again?"

Meng Long had a broken arm and had to be nursed for two to three months. But the result was good. He came back within a few days of being discharged from the hospital and at home.

He rushes home every day, runs here every day, and refuses to listen to any advice, except that he wants to catch Qian Hu.

"I saw that the other brothers started to camp out again. Now there are only a few people left in the bureau. The leaders from the city must have come down to assist in the investigation. Uncle Sun, I also want to participate. I want to find the person who injured me and Xiaobo. People take revenge.”

Meng Long clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. He accidentally stretched the injured area with great force and immediately started grinning.
