Xie Yuyao returned to the abandoned courtyard, slipped into the space, and moved the steaming roast duck set and Pinot Noir wine to the bamboo house dining table.
Place a warm, thin sheet of dough in your left hand, pick up a piece of crisp, tender roast duck meat, dip it in sauce, and roll it up with shredded scallions and cucumber. Stuff your mouth with the filling and take a bite. Instantly, your lips and teeth will be filled with fragrance, as if you have returned to the past.
I enjoyed a delicious meal of red wine and roast duck, now it's time to think about the afternoon's transactions.
Large-scale shipments are the most convenient, but also the riskiest. We don't know what kind of person this Qi Sange is, so it's safer to take it slow and steady.
Then sell another 50 jin to get the necessary coupons, and wait a few more years until the reform and opening up to make big money.
Time passed quickly, and it was almost time to go. Xie Yuyao carried 50 kilograms of rice to the black market. Two men were standing at the entrance of the alley. In addition to the man who had been on lookout in the morning, there was a young man dressed in black. He had a fierce look on his face and a burly build. He looked like a tough guy.
Xie Yuyao became wary and walked over.
If the other party has ulterior motives, she wouldn't mind throwing the knife from her spatial storage at them.
Qi Tai spotted Xie Yuyao. She was completely covered up, even wearing work gloves. She was a very cautious girl.
The lookout gave the two a brief introduction. Xie Yuyao put down her basket, and Qi Tai bent down, picked up a handful of rice, and examined it. The rice was glossy, the grains were plump, and it had a pleasant fragrance when you got close. It was indeed top-quality.
What kind of ticket do you want?
"Sugar coupons, industrial coupons, coal coupons."
She had plenty of food and cloth in the space, and she wanted to buy a few cans of malted milk powder as gifts, as well as a coal stove and coal briquettes.
Hot water is needed for bathing, and if firewood is always burned, it will increase the amount of firewood that the male educated youth need to chop. It is more convenient to use a coal stove.
The two agreed to exchange shares, and everyone was happy.
"Do you have any other goods? Of course, if you also have this rice, I'll take it."
Although the person in front of me is dressed in shabby clothes, someone who can produce such fine rice must be someone of high status. This attire is just to conceal his identity; he might even be a member of the family of some high-ranking official.
To forge a good relationship, he was unusually generous and didn't haggle. As for the other party's identity, there would be plenty of time; he would find out when the time was right.
Xie Yuyao's eyes darted around, and she tentatively asked, "What do you want?"
Qi Tai said in a loud voice, waving his hand, "As long as the quality is excellent, I'll take them all."
Hearing this, Xie Yuyao roughly understood that he must also be involved in buying and selling.
He looks fierce, but he's quite decisive in transactions and has a kind look in his eyes, so a second transaction is possible.
"I understand, but I'll come back in a while, the time is uncertain." I have to go to work later, and I don't know when my next day off will be.
"It's alright, just let the lookout know when we get back." Before the man had even left, Qi Tai was already looking forward to the next deal.

After leaving the black market, Xie Yuyao used the spatial monitoring function to check if anyone was following her. She didn't find anyone suspicious when she arrived at the department store, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Looks like I was lucky; I didn't get double-crossed.
But if you walk by the river long enough, you're bound to get your shoes wet. Once you've solved your basic needs for food, clothing, shelter, and transportation, you should stop and patiently wait for the college entrance exam.
Upon entering the department store, Xie Yuyao looked around without buying anything, secretly considering which resources in her spatial storage she could utilize.
Even with the original owner's memories, a county town is not the same as the capital city. The items taken out must be things that can be bought in the county town, otherwise, when picking up the package, they will have to pretend that it was delivered from the capital city.
After browsing around carefully, she placed an order for a coal stove, a bag of coal briquettes, a large soup pot, four boxes of malted milk powder, and work gloves and other labor supplies.
With the remaining receipts, I bought a lot of packaging bags and empty bottles, which allowed me to utilize the space's resources.
After buying the goods, she secretly put the coal stove and coal briquettes into her spatial storage. These things were too heavy, so she would take them out when she got closer to the brigade.
Xie Yuyao walked to the station and waited for the last bus. At that time, there were very few buses in the town, with only one bus running every hour.
Perhaps because it was the last train, there were quite a few people waiting to board, most of them carrying large and small bags.
After waiting for about 10 minutes, the target vehicle slowly drove up, and as soon as the door opened, everyone rushed in.
These days, queuing for public transport is not a thing. Xie Yuyao is not used to crowds, and by the time she got on the bus, there were no seats left. She stood holding onto the handrail, and was jostled and shaken all the way, feeling like she was dying.
Suddenly she felt a hand reach into her pocket. She turned to the side and saw a middle-aged man with a pointed face and monkey-like features quickly withdraw his hand.
Xie Yuyao glared at him fiercely, but he pretended to look out of the car, avoiding her gaze.
Her face was frosty as she withdrew her gaze and secretly activated her spatial vision to keep an eye on the man's every move.
Then the man shifted his target and started attacking another woman.
Xie Yuyao clearly saw him reach into the aunt's pocket, pull out a blue purse, and quickly stuff it into his own pocket.
"Driver, stop the car! There's a thief!" she shouted.
The bus driver slammed on the brakes, and the bus came to a stop.
The ticket seller stood up and looked back. "What's going on?"
"I saw a hand reach into my pocket, and it quickly withdrew as I turned around. Although I noticed it in time, I'm sure that person didn't just steal from me. Everyone, please check if anyone else has lost money."
Soon the woman whose purse had been stolen cried out, "My purse is gone! Who the hell stole it?! Who stole my money?!"
Another man standing there also said that he had lost his wallet. He was wearing glasses, looked to be in his twenties, and seemed like an intellectual.
He asked the driver to reverse to the police station. The driver obtained the passenger's consent, stepped on the gas, and prepared to turn around.
