Chapter 36 Treasure +2, Priceless Music Box
When Zhao Xiumei heard Jiang Tang wanted to buy seeds, she immediately understood. "Little Jiang, are you thinking of growing some vegetables and fruits in the yard for later consumption? Honestly, your family housing is a little off from Captain Fu's, but your yard is the largest, so you can grow a lot."
Jiang Tang smiled and nodded, "Growing your own food is safe and healthy, and it's also fresh. You can save money later. I bought so many things today and spent quite a bit of money."
Seeing that such a delicate girl actually wanted to grow vegetables in the yard like the people from their country, Zhao Xiumei liked Jiang Tang more and more.
"Sister Jiang, you are such a good wife who knows how to live. Sister-in-law was wrong just now. It's not you who is lucky, it's Captain Fu who is lucky to have a wife like you."
The two walked and talked, and soon they arrived at the seed station.
In the 1970s, the planned economy was still being implemented. Most seeds were allocated centrally and distributed directly by the state to production teams or communes. A small portion was sold at state-owned seed stations.
All transactions are strictly checked, not only for identity verification but also for signature registration.
Jiang Tang did as he was told, and with Zhao Xiumei present, there were no problems during the purchase process. Soon, Jiang Tang had bought the seeds he wanted.
The two of them happily stood out from the seed.
Jiang Tang had just taken a step forward when he heard a familiar system prompt tone.
[Space system reminder: There is a treasure within ten meters of the master.]
[Master, please search carefully to avoid missing the treasure...]
[Master, please search carefully to avoid missing the treasure...]
Jiang Tang stopped for a moment and listened carefully to the instructions from the Lingbao Space.
Zhao Xiumei asked in confusion, "Little Jiang, what's wrong with you? Why don't you leave?"
After Jiang Tang heard the reminder from Lingbao Space clearly, he began to look around. Ten meters... that is, the distance visible to the naked eye, which is very close.
The last time the space system reminded me, it directly said it was a gold bar, but this time it only said it was a treasure. It seems that the specific item is not certain.
After Jiang Tang looked around, he found a small alley behind the seed station, which looked very hidden.
There was a black market in the 1970s, and it was often found in these hidden alleys and streets.
That’s the direction!
Jiang Tang planned to go over and take a look. He pulled Zhao Xiumei and said, "Sister Zhao, why is there an alley over there? What's in there? Let's go over and take a look."
Before Zhao Xiumei could react, Jiang Tang had already pulled her over.
In a blink of an eye, they walked into the alley.
Suddenly, he stopped again.
Just because - enemies often meet on a narrow road.
Jiang Tang unexpectedly met Ye Yunshu again.
At this time, Ye Yunshu was squatting in front of a small stall, holding something similar to a music box in his hand, bargaining with the stall owner, a young man.
"Fifty dollars is too expensive, twenty dollars."
"Twenty dollars? Girl, are you dreaming? Take a closer look at this music box, it's imported from France, it costs at least three hundred dollars. Selling it to you for fifty dollars now is already a bargain for you." The young man spoke in a vulgar tone, and it was obvious that he was a hooligan.
I guess he got these stolen goods from somewhere and they cannot be circulated on the market, so he sells them in remote places.
As for Ye Yunshu...
Jiang Tang's space system can detect the presence of treasures nearby, so Ye Yunshu's system may have also reminded her, which is why she took a fancy to the music box.
The so-called treasure must be the music box.
Ye Yunshu had already held the music box tightly in his hand, but he still didn't pay. "Thirty yuan, thirty yuan, I'll pay directly."
The young man continued to shake his head, "No."
"Then forty... forty at most. These things of yours come from unknown sources. I advise you to stop while you're ahead. Forty is already a lot for you." Ye Yunshu frowned and threatened.
The young man didn't buy it at all. "If I said fifty, it's fifty. I'm going to sell it for fifty dollars today. Not a penny less!"
Ye Yunshu held the music box and refused to let go, but she really couldn't take out fifty yuan, so she could only turn around and look at Lin Xiuer.
Lin Xiuer quickly shook her head, "Yunshu, don't look at me. You know I spent all my money on clothes and skincare products. I only have two dollars left. This is my food money for the next week. I really don't have any money."
Jiang Tang listened from the side and immediately understood that Ye Yunshu had no money.
In order to get close to Fu Sinian, Ye Yunshu dropped out of Peking University. Her grandfather, the leader, would definitely not agree to her decision to drop out, and it would be even more impossible for her to travel thousands of miles to chase a married man.
So whether she dropped out of school or joined the art troupe, Ye Yunshu kept it a secret from her grandfather, the leader.
Once she marries Fu Sinian and returns to the capital in grand style, the chief will be very satisfied with his son-in-law when he sees him, and no one will mention Ye Yunshu's dropping out of school again.
Ye Yunshu traveled all the way from the capital to the southwest. She had to eat well, dress well, and live well. The expenses were very high. She didn't have even fifty yuan on her, so she kept bargaining with the young man.
Jiang Tang walked over and handed over fifty yuan. "Here's fifty yuan. I want the music box."
The young man looked up and saw five ten-yuan bills. His eyes lit up immediately. He grabbed the money and quickly snatched the music box from Ye Yunshu's hand.
"Here you go! This music box is yours now."
The music box was placed steadily in Jiang Tang's hands.
Before Ye Yunshu could react, the music box in her hand had disappeared. She looked up quickly and saw Jiang Tang's smiling face.
"That's my music box, give it back to me!"
Ye Yunshu's eyes were fixed on the music box in Jiang Tang's hand, and she wanted to snatch it away, because when she passed by this small stall, she saw that the music box was emitting golden light, which was a reminder from the system.
She realized that the music box was a treasure and she had to buy it back.
She had only been bargaining for a short while when Jiang Tang appeared here again and snatched away her music box.
"Your music box? I see you haven't paid for it. Just now at the supply and marketing cooperative, you said whoever pays first gets it. Comrade, did I pay you fifty yuan?"
The young man who owned the stall nodded immediately. "Yes, I counted it. It's fifty yuan, not a penny less. Look at her. She paid so readily. Of course, the music box is hers now."
In order to prevent the music box from being snatched away by Ye Yunshu, Jiang Tang quickly put the music box into her pocket.
Ye Yunshu looked at Jiang Tang's actions and was ridiculed by the young man. She was so angry that she gritted her teeth. The polite and refined image she had been trying hard to maintain was gone. There was only one obsession left in her mind, which was to get the music box back.
