Zhang Xudong didn't dare to go in directly this time. He found a secluded dead end nearby and entered the space directly.
How do I put makeup on myself? I'm a little worried. I've never done this before. I've been a man my whole life, so I don't know how to worry about makeup.
Standing in front of the mirror on the washstand, looking at my pretty face, I wondered if I could put on some female makeup and act like a beauty. Then I looked at my body, and it didn't work. It wasn't curvy, and my body wasn't up to par.
There are no cosmetics at home, that's clear. I searched the supermarket again and found a set of cosmetics on the checkout counter. It should be left by the boss's wife in the supermarket.
I took it and opened it. There happened to be a box of black-gray eyeshadow. I took a piece and rubbed it between my hands. Once it was evenly mixed, I applied it to my face. Once it was evenly mixed, I saw that it was really good. The pretty boy's face turned into a dark, grayish-black one, looking like a sickly person.
I found the old clothes that my grandfather wore when he plowed the soil and planted vegetables, and put on an old straw hat, and that was it.
After checking that there was no one outside, he left the space, carrying his backpack and walked towards the alley. When he reached the alley, the two old men playing chess looked at him and then lowered their heads to continue playing chess.
Zhang Xudong glanced at the chessboard as he passed by. Black's "Xiong" was about to checkmate Red's "Jiang". Hehe, flying the Xiang across the river, this is an interesting move.
After entering the alley and reaching the corner, the man guarding the alley looked up and asked Zhang Xudong, "Buy or sell?" Zhang Xudong thought for a moment and said, "Sell."
The man said, "Give me 10 cents for the venue."
Zhang Xudong reached into his trouser pocket, found a dime from the space and handed it to the other party.
The man took the money and handed me a small blue piece of paper, about the size of a mahjong tile, with some incomprehensible symbols drawn on it.
"Hold this. If anyone checks it, show it to them. Then give it back to our people when you finally come out."
Zhang Xudong took the paper and walked down the alley. After turning a corner, the view suddenly opened up. In front of him was a street about five or six meters wide, with more than a dozen alleys on both sides of the street, which should be well connected.
The streets were lined with people squatting, each with a backpack or basket in front of them.
Zhang Xudong walked along the street and saw that both the backpacks and the baskets were covered with a piece of cloth, with one corner of the cloth lifted up, revealing a little of the contents. It let you know what was inside, but not how much was inside.
Zhang Xudong slowly watched as people haggled and bargained. Big, fat cuts of meat were ten yuan a pound, while leaner cuts were eight. Eggs were eighty cents each. Live chickens were six yuan a pound, and rabbits were seven. Refined rice and flour were four yuan a pound. Just one food coupon cost three yuan a pound. Was this going to go to hell?
