Except for the Public Security Bureau and the Household Registration Office which are a little far away, most of them are on both sides of the town’s main street.

Residents live on both sides of the street.

Chen Qing went to an alley on the left and turned another corner.

He stopped in front of a house, knocked on the door a few times, and it opened.

He Wan didn't see who it was, but she could tell it was a man's voice, probably quite young, and the two of them were very familiar with each other: "Come in, you're here."

He Wan knew that this place was a black market point in the commune. There were not many people in the town, and there were not many factories here. It was almost like a village, and most people knew each other.

So this black market is right in this family’s home. If anyone wants to buy something, they can just knock on the door.

Some people in the nearby villages know about it, while others don’t.

In short, they didn't have much goods here, so Chen Qing later went to the black market in the county. The description of the black market in the county was not very clear, all we knew was that it was in an alley and there was an old man guarding outside.

She hasn't found it yet.

About ten minutes later, Chen Qing came out with a smile on his face. He must have exchanged a lot of money.

He Wan did not go to that yard, but went to the second house in an alley on the left side of this alley. She had read in a book that the man of this house worked at a vegetable station and was a director.

The first time Chen Qing sold something was in this shop. He quietly took out ten fish and several chickens from the space.

“Knock, knock.”

"Who?"

"Hello, I came from the countryside to visit my relatives. It's autumn harvest time now, and I brought some things for my relatives, but I couldn't find my way home. I'm really thirsty. Auntie, can I come to your house to have a drink of water?"

This is what Chen Qing said when she came for the first time, so when the aunt heard this, she knew that she was a person from the countryside who came to exchange things, and she quickly let her in.

After coming in, she actually brought her a glass of water. He Wan drank it all up and said hurriedly, "Thank you, auntie. Hey, my father asked me to bring a chicken to my cousin, but I don't remember the place. I've been looking around all morning and don't want to go around anymore." The auntie smiled and said, "You don't go to your cousin's house very often, do you?"

"Yeah, I haven't been here for several years."

"I haven't seen this relative for a long time, so I've forgotten him. Your father asked you to come and see your cousin, so there must be something wrong."

He Wan said with embarrassment: "Yes, my mother is sick, and my father asked me to come here to borrow some money from my cousin."

The auntie laughed: "How much money does a family have these days? Once a relative asks for money, the relationship is gone. Didn't you say you have a chicken? How about you return it to me and I can exchange it for money? How about that?"

He Wan looked embarrassed and said, "Okay then." Then she opened the bamboo basket and took one out for her.

The aunt naturally caught a glimpse of her bamboo basket and knew what was going on, but without saying anything, she picked up the chicken, weighed it and said, "This chicken is quite fat."

"Yes, in the mountains. If we feed them well, our chickens weigh more than four pounds."

"How do you change?"

"Change for three dollars. No ticket required. You can have a ticket if you want one. It depends on what kind of ticket you want."

"I have a five-jin vegetable ticket."

"Okay, then just give me two dollars and a half."

"Okay, I'll get you the money."

After the aunt entered the house, He Wan was waiting here. Coincidentally, a middle-aged man came in from outside and was stunned when he saw He Wan in the yard.

Then he asked, "Who are you?"

“I, I.”
