Jiang Manyue was led by him around several corners, and finally went out from the back and entered an alley.
"Your place is too secluded. Without a guide, who can find you?"
Jiang Manyue silently memorized the complicated route in her mind and couldn't help but complain a few words.
The man was very proud, "This is safe enough. Without anyone leading us, those people up there won't be able to find this place. Even if they find the door, they won't know how to get in."
Jiang Manyue nodded. It was normal for the black market to be hidden so deeply. If it was exposed in the open, it would have been wiped out long ago.
The two of them went around to the real black market, and Jiang Manyue saw quite a few people trading there, but most of them were trading ordinary daily necessities.
The man took Jiang Manyue into a room that looked like a warehouse, turned on the light, and pointed to the shoe boxes inside. "Take a look, they are all leather shoes from Shanghai, both men's and women's styles, 20 yuan a pair."
Jiang Manyue pretended to be surprised, "Twenty? That's too expensive!"
The man emphasized again, "Twenty yuan is still expensive? These are fashionable goods from Shanghai. You can search all over Yunzhou and you won't find any leather shoes that are prettier than mine."
Jiang Manyue also wanted to see what quality goods were sold in Yunzhou, so that it would be easier for her to do business.
When she opened the shoe box, Jiang Manyue's expression froze instantly.
This was basically the goods she resold to Zhou Laosan, and it actually circulated to Yunzhou?
Jiang Manyue opened a few more shoe boxes, looked at them carefully, and confirmed that these were the goods she was reselling.
I didn't expect that Zhou Laosan was so capable that he actually managed to distribute all the goods to Yunzhou. However, the price increased by five yuan, so I'm afraid that the goods were sold more than once.
Jiang Manyue picked and chose among the pile of leather shoes, and finally said with disgust, "I thought they were so fashionable and beautiful, but there is nothing I like at all."
She had no intention of doing business with the man in front of her, so she simply pretended to be very picky about the goods.
She wouldn't buy leather shoes. These were things she bought herself, so how could she possibly spend money on them? She just wanted to find an excuse to leave quickly and come back next time with a different outfit.
This person can even go to the street and ask people if they want to buy leather shoes. It’s obvious that she is just a small fry. It would be better for her to bring out some good things next time to attract those high-ranking traders.
The man was also a little dissatisfied with Jiang Manyue, "These are all goods from Shanghai. Who wouldn't say they are beautiful after seeing them? These are not what you want."
Jiang Manyue proudly stretched out her feet to show him, "Look at the leather shoes on my feet, aren't they more beautiful than yours?"
After saying that, Jiang Manyue turned and left, not caring about the man rolling his eyes at her behind her back.
Anyway, the location of the black market has been found. I will come back next time when I have time.
Jiang Manyue returned to the dead corner, changed back into her original clothes, took the bus, and returned to the military area.
As soon as I arrived at the military compound, I heard a lot of noise inside, as if someone was arguing.
Jiang Manyue walked in and saw several of her neighbors standing together. Sister Ma from next door was holding a child and scolding the woman opposite without any politeness.
Jiang Manyue didn't know the child, but she knew he was not Sister Ma's child. She couldn't help but walk over curiously to listen to what was going on.
Sister Ma and the woman across the street cursed at each other for a long time, and several other neighbors joined in. Jiang Manyue listened for a long time and finally understood the whole story.
It turned out that the woman standing opposite was called Fang Shuixiu, and the child was called Binbin. He was Fang Shuixiu's son, but not her biological son. Fang Shuixiu was her stepmother.
Binbin's father seemed to be away on many missions and was rarely at home. Fang Shuixiu paid less and less attention to the child and even rarely fed him. The child could only endure the lack of food, and when he was really hungry, he would ask the neighbors for food.
Today, Binbin was extremely hungry and came to Sister Ma's house to ask for something to eat. When Sister Ma asked, she found out that he had not eaten for more than a day. Sister Ma was so angry that she stood in the yard and cursed Fang Shuixiu's family.
Fang Shuixiu was not someone to be trifled with either. She wanted to take Binbin home to teach him a lesson, but Sister Ma refused to let her take the child away, so the two started arguing with each other. The neighbors who heard the noise and came out to watch the fun couldn't stand it anymore, so they joined Sister Ma in criticizing Fang Shuixiu.
Jiang Manyue suddenly felt that this situation was very familiar. If the old couple of the Lu family were not around, Lu Jun'an would probably have lived a life like this under Jiang Manyue's rule.
Thinking of Lu Jun'an and looking at Binbin, who was indeed very thin, Jiang Manyue still felt quite sympathetic towards him.
Although neighbors like Sister Ma are kind-hearted and often give Binbin some food, and even had a big fight with Fang Shuixiu today to protect him, he and Fang Shuixiu are family after all. Fang Shuixiu suffered a loss at the hands of Sister Ma and the others, and she doesn't know how to vent her anger on Binbin.
Jiang Manyue shook her head. Unless someone from Sister Ma's group could adopt Binbin or let Binbin's father know about these things and divorce Fang Shuixiu, Binbin's life would always be like this.
Adoption is obviously impossible. People's lives are not very affluent nowadays, and feeding one more mouth is a lot of pressure.
Besides, Binbin is not without family. His parents live in the compound. How could he be adopted by someone else?
If you want to make Binbin's life better, you have to let Binbin's father know that his son is being abused at home and then divorce his stepmother.
But I don’t know if Sister Ma and the others can handle this matter to the end, otherwise Binbin will be in trouble when he returns home.
The women kept arguing, and Jiang Manyue couldn't figure out what they were going to do next. She was so tired of listening that she simply stopped listening and went home to rest.
