Last night
Sweet City Guesthouse
After returning from dinner, Jiang Xile began to rest and recharge for her nighttime scouting trip to the black market.
Around eight o'clock, a commotion came from outside, and soon after, there was a knock on my door.
"Hello, comrade, please open one door. It's a routine check!"
"Okay, please wait a moment!"
Jiang Xile finished dressing, her face still showing the confusion of someone who had just woken up.
Upon opening the door, I saw the receptionist leading two police officers standing at the entrance.
"Please show me your identification and letter of introduction. It's a routine check!"
"Okay, please wait a moment!"
Jiang Xile took out his identification and the letter of introduction given to him by the captain and handed them over.
The other party checked the documents, then looked Jiang Xile up and down and said:
"Your documents are fine, but try not to wander around at night to avoid any danger!"
"Yes, I understand, thank you for letting me know!"
After seeing the police officers off, Jiang Xile couldn't sleep anymore. After the room check, she figured the two girls would be heading to the black market, so she needed to make some preparations.
She took out a set of men's clothing that she had previously stored away at the Jiang family's house. She remembered that the clothes seemed to belong to Jiang Shengli.
Fortunately, it was clean, so it wasn't too unpleasant.
A wig was fixed on his head, completely covering Jiang Xile's long hair. After dressing and putting on a scarf, he was clearly a short man.
After disguising himself, Jiang Xile used his mental power to begin dividing the wild boar in the space.
She plans to sell the wild boar in smaller parts. Although she also likes to eat meat, she prefers domestic pigs to wild boars.
Wild boar meat is both gamey and tough, and given her mediocre cooking skills, I'd better decline.
Cut them into pieces according to size: one pound, two pounds, five pounds, and ten pounds.
After removing the internal organs and blood, the pure meat from this wild boar weighs 120 jin (60 kg), which is quite a lot.
As for the pig's head and trotters, we'll just consider them as extras.
Just past nine o'clock, the guesthouse fell completely silent, with the sounds of snoring echoing down the corridor, signaling everyone's state of mind.
Jiang Xile's room was not far from the front desk. With her hearing, she could clearly hear the staff outside from the doorway.
Just after eleven o'clock, Jiang Xile heard a series of urgent knocks on the door, followed by a conversation between two girls.
"Why are you so late? I almost fell asleep!"
"Oh dear, we can't go to the black market too late; going now is already considered early!"
"Alright, you're right. I'll pack up and we'll set off!"
"Okay, hurry up!"
Don't worry!
A rustling sound rang out, followed by the rattling of chains.
"Come on, can you get me the lock? I'll wrench the door shut!"
"Um!"
Knowing that the two were about to leave, Jiang Xile opened the door, jumped out of the corridor window, and then went around to the front door from the back, waiting for the two in the shadows on the side.
Jiang Xile followed them all the way to the entrance of an alley behind the post office and stopped.
Jiang Xile was relieved to see the two pay the gate fee and go inside.
Taking out a basket from his spatial storage, Jiang Xile checked his disguise. Finding no flaws, he then headed towards the alley entrance.
Jiang Xile was stopped by a burly man as soon as she reached the door.
"Young man, is this your first time here?"
Despite being stopped, Jiang Xile remained calm and composed, looking at the other person and asking:
"What? You're not welcome?"
"No, it's just that the face looks unfamiliar, so I'm asking around to see if you're buying or selling, young man!"
Is there any explanation for this?
"It's simple. Two cents for selling things, one cent for buying things. There are patrols inside and brothers keeping watch outside, so we guarantee safety!"
"Thank you very much!"
Jiang Xile took out two cents and handed it over. The other person then took out a red cloth strip and tied it around her arm.
"Go in! The red ribbon will prove your identity. Set up your stall by the roadside, just don't block the way!"
Jiang Xile nodded and then strode inside.
"This little guy is so young, but he has quite a temper!"
"Heh, who cares about his temper, as long as he pays!"
"you're right!"
The man keeping watch at the door chatted idly while constantly keeping a vigilant eye on his surroundings.
As Jiang Xile walked into the alley, she saw groups of people inside. Although there weren't many, there were still quite a few of them.
Sure enough, the people setting up stalls all had a red cloth strip tied around their arms.
Before setting up a stall, Jiang Xile wandered around for a while and then stopped next to a fabric stall.
This place is a crossroads, with open terrain and a good view, making it easy to escape if anything happens.
She put the basket on the ground, then took out a palm-sized piece of pork and placed it on the cloth. Before long, Jiang Xile attracted a lot of people.
"Young man, what kind of meat are you selling?"
"Wild boar meat!"
"My God, it's wild boar meat! I've really stumbled upon this. I have to buy some!"
The newcomer's face was full of excitement, his face completely covered, leaving only his bright eyes visible.
How much is this meat?
"If you don't have coupons, it's 1.2 yuan; if you do, it's 1 yuan! It doesn't have to be meat coupons; industrial coupons, cloth coupons, sugar coupons, and tobacco and alcohol coupons will all work!"
"real?"
"The item is right here, how could it be fake!"
