Of course Xiao Hua heard it, but he didn't take it to heart.

I just think it's normal. How can a non-local gather a group of brothers to do this job? When outsiders come, they can't even get in the door.

In private transactions, many people conceal their identities, and the most taboo thing is to explore the identity of others.

He didn't hide it because someone had been eyeing him in advance, and he had been approached like this before.

So even though he was a little curious, he still knew the rules. After all, they were a gang and he was alone.

He is not greedy. He just wants to make a little money from it, which can also be beneficial to his work.

He carefully checked the TV and found it was indeed brand new. He said decisively, "I want this TV. Can I pay the price on the note?"

Yi Qingqing: "..."

This inspection was too sloppy. Although she knew in her heart that her TV was in good condition and there was no problem at all, other people didn't know. It was a private transaction and no one could be found after the transaction.

Before, she was a little worried that it would be difficult to test the quality of the television in a private transaction. But when she saw that people who bought televisions in state-owned stores just paid for them and took them away without saying anything more, let alone trying them on the spot, she felt more at ease. She didn't expect that people really didn't have the habit of carefully checking the quality.

All I can say is that in this era, although materials are not abundant, the quality of domestic products is top-notch, and there is no such thing as inferior products being passed off as good ones, especially for precious items like televisions.

Xiao Hua took out the 60 Great Unity notes he had prepared and handed them to Yi Qingqing.

Yi Qingqing took it, turned her back to count it, then turned back to him and said, "Okay, the money and goods are settled, you can go now!"

Xiao Hua nodded, closed the box, and picked it up with difficulty.

This TV doesn't look big, but it is quite heavy. With the box outside, Xiao Hua found it a bit difficult to lift it, but he managed to hold on.

Yi Qingqing watched him walk a long way, then turned back behind the bushes and ran to where the bicycle was hidden, took the bicycle, put the cloak into the space, and then pushed it out from the other direction of the poplar forest, taking a detour back to the main road.

Safe!

Only then did she feel relieved and rode her bike leisurely to the county town.

This kind of speculation is really not something that humans should do. It may be very profitable, but it is really nerve-wracking and the psychological pressure is huge.

The role of the heroine is indeed not something that everyone can do. Yi Qingqing became even more determined not to work in the black market, as it was too tiring and not good for health at all.

But the 600 yuan I spent on replacing the TV is still very worthwhile.

Including the 550 yuan she got for signing in, her assets now exceed one thousand yuan, and it will be no problem for her to become a millionaire before going to college.

Riding a bicycle and humming a tuneless song, she caught up with Xiao Hua, who was squatting on the roadside, holding a large wooden box and catching his breath.

Seeing that he was sweating profusely, he was indeed weak and had difficulty holding such a small TV.

He shook his head and rode past him.

Xiao Hua could never have imagined that this beautiful girl who was wearing simple and plain clothes and riding a bicycle was the man in the cloak just now.

He was now convinced that the other person was a muscular man. This box must have been made in a hurry. The wood was not even completely dry yet and was very heavy.

Even though the man had thought of everything and prepared everything to cover him up, he couldn't thank him at the moment. He was exhausted, and the fifty dollars was not easy to earn.

Yi Qingqing had just received a big news, and she was in high spirits. She went to the bank to sign in.

【Sign in at the Tieling County Bank sign-in location and receive RMB 200. 】

It’s really a double happiness!

She realized that the sign-in at this bank was like a lottery. All the money signed in was money, but the amount of money signed in was different each time. The previous amounts were all 100 or 150, but this time it broke the record, a full 200 yuan.

I must have a good meal at noon today to reward myself for being so nervous.

It's almost time for dinner, so I went to the state-owned store to see what dishes are available today.

When Yi Qingqing walked in, the waiter had just written down today's lunch menu on the small blackboard.

Yi Qingqing's eyes lit up. There was soy sauce duck! And there was sweet and sour pork!

As an apprentice of Master Wen who even he himself doesn’t know, she has no idea how many demonstration dishes Master Wen has made that she has eaten during his cooking teaching mode.

This duck in soy sauce is her favorite dish.

Although she learned it, she has not yet made it in real life because she doesn't have the ingredients.

The pot-fried pork is also delicious!

The pork in her backpack had been eaten up. Although her family sent her some meat coupons this time, they were not much. They were all saved by her parents.

How could she not know what the family usually eats?

Although she can hunt prey now, it is basically rabbits, pheasants and the like, which taste very different from pork.

The meat in this state-owned restaurant does not require meat coupons, only money. The staple food requires some grain coupons.

Therefore, it is more cost-effective to eat meat dishes in state-owned restaurants, especially for those who do not have enough meat coupons but have a lot of money.

It was also common for well-off families to order a meat dish from a state-owned restaurant and then take it home to add another dish to the table.

"Please give me a duck in soy sauce, a serving of sweet and sour pork, and a bowl of sorghum rice."

It was still early and not many people were around, so Yi Qingqing went to the window and said to the clerk.

Who is this? He is so rich in ordering food!

The person at the window looked out in surprise.

Oh, it's her. It's reasonable for her to order two meat dishes. For an educated youth with a bicycle, she can afford this little money. There's nothing good to eat in the countryside on weekdays, so it's reasonable for her to buy some more meat to try during the holidays.

The clerk quoted a price.

Yi Qingqing paid it readily.

There weren't many people queuing at the window at the moment, so Yi Qingqing stood by and waited.

It didn't take long to get the stuff.

The soy sauce duck was chopped up. Yi Qingqing only left a little bit outside and wrapped the rest in oil paper, pretending to put it in her shoulder bag, but actually put it in her personal space.

Ordering a whole one is also to keep it for later consumption.

After acquiring the skill of having a portable space, she liked to stock up on things in it. Looking at the things in that space, she felt at ease.

I just tried the sauce-flavored duck for lunch today, and the main dish was sweet and sour pork. Sweet and sour pork is not easy to carry, so it is better to eat it while it is hot.

As soon as a piece of meat entered her mouth, Yi Qingqing felt that her whole body was sublimated. The sense of happiness that delicious food brings to people is infinite.

Yun Guyuan had not arrived yet, so she ate slowly, savoring the food carefully.

Although this era was hard and material things were scarce, it was not without its advantages.

This ingredient is much more delicious and authentic than the meat and poultry raised on a large scale in later generations. This bowl of rice is full and the vegetables are more substantial. The merchants will not cut corners in this regard, which is very conscientious for consumers.
