So Lin Yizhen went to get some more food and pork.
This time, she took out more: ten pounds of rice and flour, and two large pieces of pork, each weighing about five pounds.
I took out another small piece of beef weighing two pounds to test the water.
Beef is quite expensive, and Lin Yizhen was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to sell it, so she didn’t take more.
After taking the things and weighing them, Lin Yizhen walked slowly towards the entrance of the black market with a bamboo basket in her hand and rice and flour on her back.
When she reached the door, the man at the door was about to chase her away.
Just then, a one-cent bill floated before his eyes. The man quickly put the money away and said to Lin Yizhen with a smile, "Come in! Keep your voice down when you're inside."
Lin Yizhen nodded without saying anything.
After entering the door, Lin Yizhen saw a lot of people squatting on the ground not far away.
There was a bamboo basket in front of them, and it was obvious that they were selling things on the black market.
There were also many people carrying bamboo baskets, walking back and forth among the crowd, occasionally stopping to ask a few questions, these people must be the buyers.
Lin Yizhen also followed the example of the vendors and found an open space.
First put the bamboo basket down, and then put the rice and flour on his back next to the bamboo basket.
Lin Yizhen opened the bag of rice and flour and lifted the cloth covering the bamboo basket a little. Just as she had sorted everything out, someone came over to ask for the price.
Lin Yizhen looked up at the other person, a man with gray hair.
The old lady, dressed neatly and cleanly, was carrying a small bamboo basket and squatting in front of it, looking at her.
I guess she was asking about the price.
Lin Yizhen quoted the prices one by one to the other party, and also quoted the weight of the two kinds of meat.
After Lin Yi finished speaking, the old lady didn't say anything. I wonder if she thought it was too expensive or if she was still considering it?
The prices of rice, noodles and pork remain the same as before.
The price of beef is a little higher. Without a ticket, it costs 1.5 yuan per pound. With a national ticket, it costs 1.3 yuan per pound. But this time she doesn't want a local ticket.
She will be leaving Hai City in a few days, so there is no point in collecting so many local tickets.
Lin Yizhen planned to spend all the local tickets she had collected earlier at the supply and marketing cooperative during the day.
It’s a pity that the man only gave me two industrial coupons before. I don’t know if it’s enough to buy a lunch box?
Lunch boxes are necessities, you have to buy them.
Just when Lin Yizhen was thinking about how to spend those local tickets.
I heard the old lady across the street say, "Brother, I want all ten pounds of flour. Give me this piece of pork, and give me the beef too!"
I have quite a few nationally redeemable tickets here. Please calculate their total value!"
As she spoke, the old lady took out a white handkerchief with a maroon edge from her pocket.
After taking out the handkerchief, he slowly opened it and took out a large piece of paper from it.
Then he took out a small handful of tickets from his pocket.
Lin Yizhen took a quick look and saw various types of tickets for grain, sugar, cloth, meat, and industry, which were in short supply at the time.
This made her very satisfied.
So, after the bill was settled, he readily gave the other party a dime as a change.
The old lady was also very satisfied with Lin Yizhen's behavior of making up for the loss.
She weighed all the things she bought with the scale she brought with her, and then handed the Great Unity and the national ticket in her hand to Lin Yizhen.
After receiving the money and ticket, Lin Yizhen helped the old lady put the flour into her backpack, and then continued to sell things.
With the old lady taking the lead, many people asked about the price.
However, because Lin Yizhen did not bring a scale, it was difficult to sell the grain and pork separately by kilogram.
Also, Lin Yizhen wanted a ticket that was valid nationwide, and the price was very high.
Therefore, more people ask than buy.
Lin Yizhen was not in a hurry either. These fine grains and pork would easily sell on the black market.
Sure enough, not long after, someone came and bought all her rice and pork.
The price was still the same as before, but this time I didn't receive any national redemption tickets, so I did make a few more dollars.
After everything in the basket was sold, daylight gradually began to rise.
The weather at the end of August is still very hot, and the sun rises early. It's probably around 5 o'clock, not even 6 o'clock.
Lin Yizhen stopped selling things in the black market. She packed up her basket and left.
He found a deserted and secluded place to enter the space, then washed off his disguise and changed back into his previous clothes.
Then, he left the space and quickly ran towards the dormitory of the steel plant.
Finally, I got home before Huang Hui woke up.
You know, Huang Hui gets up before six o'clock every day to make breakfast.
Lin Yizhen tried to avoid any complications before going to the countryside, as she didn't want the Lin family to find out that she was not at home in the middle of the night.
I returned to my utility room and heard some noise coming from the kitchen outside.
Lin Yizhen covered her head with the bed sheet and lay down on the half door panel, looking like she was still sleeping.
Not sure if she was tired from being busy or just sleepy, but Lin Yizhen fell asleep soon after she lay down.
When she woke up again, no one was home.
Of course, there was no breakfast, only a large basin of dirty dishes.
Lin Yizhen took a look and went back to her Wenhua Palace to have breakfast. There were so many delicious foods in the imperial kitchen, so why bother watching those dirty things outside and causing trouble.
However, before having breakfast, Lin Yizhen practiced martial arts for an hour in the imperial garden.
By the time she finished practicing martial arts and eating breakfast, it was already past nine in the morning, almost ten.
Thinking that she would have to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things later, Lin Yizhen went to Lin Yimei's cupboard and took out a set of clean clothes to change into.
