The news was met with great joy by the villagers in the nearby villages, as it was a rare opportunity to make money!

Moreover, they had accumulated quite a lot of goods over the years since the market closed, and this was a good opportunity to sell them, which would make their family much better off.

Especially those families who couldn't afford to get their sons married were putting in all their effort to make a fortune.

As a local, Grandma Su quickly found out about this, and she didn't hide it from her; she immediately told her neighbors in the courtyard and alley.

Everyone was very happy when they found out. You know, even though there is no holiday for the Lunar New Year now, everyone still wants to have a good New Year. Even the stingiest families will eat something nice at this time.

It's just that things are so hard to buy in Beijing before the Lunar New Year! Especially New Year's goods, you have to fight for them all.

Now that they have this opportunity, and they don't even need tickets, they certainly don't want to waste it!

They immediately decided to go and take a look together. Grandpa Ma even planned to bring his cart, since everyone knows that people in the countryside have a lot of things, as evidenced by the fact that the Su family sends things over every few days.

They've been envious for a long time, so they plan to stock up this time.

Su He did the same; after returning to work, she not only notified her colleagues but also the Tianqiao Police Station.

Those who found out were overjoyed and planned to tell their families after get off work so they could go and have a look too.

Before long, the news spread throughout the capital. It's possible that the leader in this case really had powerful connections. It's said that when the higher-ups found out, they not only didn't object, but also praised him, saying that it was to generate income for the people.

Seeing this, other towns in the surrounding area were also inspired and immediately decided to set up one as well.

However, these towns were either geographically inconvenient, being too far from the capital, or they simply didn't have enough time to prepare.

So in the end, most people went to Yanliang Town, where Su He's family lived.

The market was scheduled for a holiday, but Su He decided not to go because she thought it would be too crowded.

Grandma Su grew up in the countryside and used to go to the market often, so she was quite familiar with it. But Lin's mother and the others had never been to one, so Grandma Su decided to take them there to see it for themselves.

Yuan Yuan wanted to come along, but Su He thought it would be chaotic, so she didn't agree.

So she stayed home with Lin Jingyan to take care of the children, while the four elderly people got up early and went to the market with the other people in the courtyard.

Knowing that it was the commune where the Su family lived, and with Grandma Su as their guide, they didn't plan to go anywhere else.

However, we thought they had arrived early enough, but when they got to the bus stop, they found that there was already a queue.

Although the bus station had anticipated this situation and temporarily dispatched several buses, it was still not enough.

Fortunately, they arrived early and boarded the bus after waiting for half an hour. However, because there were so many people, Grandpa Ma's cart almost couldn't get on.

After they left, Su He and Lin Jingyan rested at home. It was rare for the courtyard to be so quiet with so few people around, and she was still a little unaccustomed to it.

Yuan Yuan was a little angry because he couldn't go, so Lin Jingyan took out a chess set and played with him to distract him. The little guy quickly forgot about it and focused on playing chess.

Su He glanced back at the two children, who were sleeping soundly and probably wouldn't wake up anytime soon, so she picked up a book and started reading.

Just as I was getting drowsy from reading, I noticed that Lin Jingyan was getting up to cook.

She then realized it was already noon and was somewhat surprised. "Why haven't Grandma and the others come back yet? Didn't we say we weren't going to buy anything, just go and check on them?"

After all, other people may have difficulty buying things in the countryside, but his family has plenty. So he said before he left that he was just going out to see what was going on and to show the people in the tenement. Why did it take so long?
