"go."
Jiang Yue wrote a note, carried a green canvas bag, and walked towards the village with Xiao Hei by the hand.
Previously, Tang Zhaodi and her group had secretly collected some dried vegetables and fish in the village, and Jiang Yue wanted to go and see them this time as well.
The situation is much better now than it was a few years ago.
Some families have already started doing business quietly, and as long as they aren't caught openly, they'll be fine.
Even if they are encountered, some will say it was given to a relative.
Tang Zhaodi and her friends came here a few years ago, so they got to know many of the villagers.
"Comrade Jiang, what would you like to buy? Eggs, fish, chickens, ducks and geese are available in this village."
"Let me take a look first."
Tang Zhaodi nodded with a smile.
After entering the village, the group saw many people still busy in the fields and vegetable gardens.
The village is very close to the military base, and military personnel often move around the area. The villagers often secretly do business with the military personnel, selling agricultural products.
Tang Zhaodi and Lin Ling took Jiang Yue to the brigade leader's house first.
The brigade leader's surname is Zhang. There are many people with the surname Zhang in this area, as well as several other common surnames.
"Aunt Zhang."
"Comrade Tang, Comrade Lin, you've arrived."
Aunt Zhang was very happy to see Tang Zhaodi and the others.
Tang Zhaodi and Lin Ling were very reasonably priced when buying eggs and other items, and she enjoyed interacting with them. Unlike some others who were incredibly stingy when buying things, always trying to buy more to supplement their family income and buy meat for their grandchildren, she really didn't want to deal with those stingy and cunning people.
"Are the eggs we wanted ready?"
"Ready?" Aunt Zhang greeted the group. When her eyes fell on Jiang Yue, her gaze lit up, and she praised her with a smile.
"Is this comrade from the cultural troupe? He's really good-looking. Just like a movie star in a magazine."
Hearing what Aunt Zhang said, Jiang Yue nodded to Aunt Zhang and called out, "Aunt Zhang."
“Aunt Zhang, this is Comrade Jiang, a military wife from our compound. The cultural troupe wants to invite her, but she hasn’t agreed yet,” Tang Zhaodi said with some pride.
"Wow, she's amazing!" Aunt Zhang couldn't help but glance at Jiang Yue a few more times after hearing Tang Zhaodi's words.
Such a beautiful girl must be from a big city.
"Comrade Jiang, what do you want to buy?"
"I'd like to buy some duck eggs, and it would be even better if you could find any mountain products."
Hearing Jiang Yue's words, Aunt Zhang couldn't stop smiling.
"We have duck eggs, lots of them."
Originally, each family could only raise a few chickens and ducks, but in the last two years, the situation has improved, so some families have secretly raised more.
One family can get five or six duck eggs a day.
I usually give the duck eggs to my family, but they don't taste as good as chicken eggs. These days, people eat more chicken eggs.
Tang Zhaodi asked with some confusion after hearing Jiang Yue's words.
"Comrade Jiang, what are you buying duck eggs for?"
"Make preserved eggs and salted duck eggs."
These people have naturally eaten preserved eggs and salted duck eggs, but nowadays everyone is reluctant to use too many ingredients and mostly eats boiled eggs.
Aunt Zhang called her two daughters-in-law to bring some mountain produce from inside the house to the table in the living room.
"Comrade Jiang, this is a rabbit, this is a pheasant, and this is wild boar meat. These were all hunted by the villagers in the mountains a while ago..."
Jiang Yue examined them carefully. Although these items had been smoked, they were still recognizable.
