Chapter 35 She also wants to bring her things here to exchange for money
The tractor stopped on the side of the road. Taozhi and Secretary Chen took a small path and turned into an alley.
Taozhi felt that if no one led the way, she would never find this place in her lifetime.
It's really too secretive! I turned a few times and it looked like an ordinary residential area.
No wonder I can’t find it above—
"Uncle Chen, who runs this black market?" Taozhi asked curiously while walking on the road.
Secretary Chen shook his head. "I don't know. Since buying and selling is prohibited and people still have demand, a black market has emerged."
"Who opened it specifically is not my concern. This black market exists in many places. When there are strict inspections, they close down, but when the management is relaxed, they continue to operate."
“I suspect it’s someone with a background.”
He just stopped there. What’s the background?
Taozhi thinks it should be from the underworld...
It has been 70 years, and the country is still paying off its national debt and pursuing national rejuvenation. Many wealthy people are doing business in secret, and it is difficult to control them.
The background is so important!
Taozhi even suspected that she had received help from someone in her previous life, which was why she was able to have a smooth journey.
She paused slightly. Could it be Xie Yan...
After all, he was also a gangster in his previous life, and he had connections in both the government and the business world.
She clenched her fists. The more she thought about her past life, the more she owed Xie Yan.
"Taozhi, come quickly, we're here." Chen Wangshan waved at her, and the two of them walked into an alley.
The houses here are all made of earthen walls and tiles. There are people sitting on the roadside with the doors closed, just like a closed-down town in the south of the Yangtze River.
Secretary Chen knocked on a small door. The door opened, looked at him and the people behind him, and let them in.
Only then did Taozhi truly see the black market.
How to describe this place? After they entered the door, they walked into a cave. The area inside was very large, twice as large as the primary school that was about to be built in their village.
There was a lot of noise and a lot of people were lying on the ground with things in front of them.
The ground was a little damp, and all kinds of strange smells came from it, making her feel suffocated.
There were quite a few customers, many of whom were buying things, mostly jade and exchanging business tickets.
Chen Wangshan asked her to follow him, and Taozhi saw the people setting up stalls on the ground, all of them with their faces covered.
They even had china and dishes stolen from the cemetery in front of them and were shouting loudly.
"Would you like to take a look at the bowl used by Empress Dowager Cixi?"
"This is the spittoon where Cixi once spat."
"How much is it? Can I exchange it for food coupons? Industrial coupons or cloth coupons will also be fine."
…
Taozhi quickly followed Chen Wangshan. They arrived at the door of a small shop. Although it was in a cave, there were many small shops inside. The things there were obviously expensive.
As soon as she reached the door of the store, she heard a woman screaming. The woman was pinned to the ground and beaten by a man.
She was shocked to see the woman dying and being dragged away.
Everyone was used to it. Taozhi followed Chen Wangshan, who whispered, "You must behave yourself in this place. Although the black market is a place where you can exchange things, you must remember not to show off your wealth. And you must speak to people politely, otherwise you will get into big trouble."
He walked to the door of the shop and looked at the vendor inside: "Mr. Xiao, it's me. I want to ask if there is any swine fever medicine recently."
The gentleman looked to be in his forties, wearing a Zhongshan suit and black glasses, like a fortune teller on the street.
He looked at the visitor and knocked on the table: "How much?"
Chen Wangshan almost cried with joy. It actually existed! !
He quickly said, "About the amount of ten pigs."
