After finishing his meal, Lin Qing dressed up as a boy again, picked up a bamboo basket, and headed towards the street!
Perhaps it was because it was early today! Lin Qing soon spotted an older woman with a headscarf wrapped around her head and a basket slung over her arm, walking suspiciously.
Lin Qing followed the old woman discreetly. Sure enough, soon she saw the old woman pay a man 5 cents and then enter an alley.
"Buy or sell?"
The man stopped Lin Qing and asked.
"Sell"
"1 hair"
Lin Qing paid 10 cents and went inside! After walking forward for about ten meters, she turned a corner and saw an open space. Many people were squatting in the open space selling things, and some people were buying things and wandering around.
Lin Qing looked around and found that everything was about two to three times more expensive than outside, with grain and meat being the best-selling items.
Lin Qing found a spot and squatted down. She took some pork and rice from her spatial storage, put them in a bamboo basket, and waited.
"Young man, what are you selling?"
A moment later, an older woman came over and asked.
"Auntie, I have rice and pork here."
As she spoke, Lin Qing lifted the bamboo basket to show the old woman!
Inside the bamboo basket was a bag of rice, weighing about 50 jin (25 kg), and a dozen or so pieces of pork, each weighing about 1 jin (0.5 catties). The pork was of high quality, with more fat than lean, and was very fresh.
The rice inside the bag was pure white, without a single pebble; it was top-quality polished rice.
"Young man, how much is your rice and pork per pound?"
The older woman, her eyes shining as she looked at the rice and pork, asked...
"Auntie, my pork and rice are top quality. Pork is 1.5 yuan per jin, and rice is 0.7 yuan per jin. No coupons needed. If you need coupons, the rice is 0.3 yuan."
"Okay, give me 20 jin of rice and 5 jin of pork, no coupons required."
The woman thought for a moment and said that although the price was a bit high, the quality was really good. So she gritted her teeth and said...
"Alright, ma'am, here's 20 jin of rice. Make sure you weigh it carefully!"
Lin Qing put the rice into the rice bag that the old lady had brought, then borrowed the scale from the vegetable vendor next to her, weighed 20 jin (10 catties), and took 5 pieces of pork, which she handed to the old lady.
"Auntie, it's 21.5 yuan in total, pork is 7.5 yuan, and rice is 14 yuan."
Lin Qing said with a smile, "The first order is a big one, not bad, not bad."
"Here you go, take it."
The woman readily counted out 21.5 yuan and handed it to Lin Qing, then quickly left.
While the old lady was shopping, several other middle-aged women and a middle-aged man gathered around her!
The items Lin Qing brought sold out quickly. In between, Lin Qing secretly restocked a little more, but not too much, for fear that someone with ulterior motives would see it.
The items Lin Qing brought were of such high quality! They sold out in less than an hour!
Lin Qing checked the time and saw that it was still early, so she went out for a stroll, then restocked and came back to sell.
He made five trips back and forth, without even having time for lunch, and earned a total of 356 yuan in one day.
Lin Qing glanced at her watch; it was only 3 p.m., and she should have been able to make another trip!
On the last trip, Lin Qing discovered that someone was following her!
Lin Qing wandered around several streets before finally shaking off her pursuers by entering her spatial dimension. It seems she was a bit too high-profile today; she should be more careful tomorrow.
Lin Qing ate some barbecue in the space, watered the carrots, and checked their ripening time; there were still 3 hours left.
Lin Qing played in the space for half a day, until 4:30 before leaving and heading home.
Lin Qing originally wanted to find some supplies that could be used in the countryside to bring back, but most of the things Gu Nanxun bought, apart from grain seeds, were things that couldn't be used in this era.
Unfortunately, Lin Qing could only use them secretly. If she took these things outside, she would be exposed in no time.
"Check-in, system."
As Lin Qing passed by the credit union, she realized that she hadn't signed in yet and didn't know what she could sign up for at the credit union.
"Ding... Sign-in successful! Congratulations, host, you have received 150 yuan in cash."
"You can actually earn money by checking in at the credit union!"
Lin Qing asked in surprise.
"Will you be able to get a bicycle by signing in at the train station?"
Lin Qing's feet have been aching from walking so much these past two days. She wished she could get a bicycle.
Lin Qing hummed a song and returned home in a cheerful mood.
Dong Xiulan was not seen in the living room or the kitchen.
Lin Qing pushed open her bedroom door! Sure enough, her mother was in the bedroom helping her pack her things.
On the bed was a very thick new cotton quilt, which must have been made today!
On the table next to it were a washbasin, a thermos, a teacup, towels, toothpaste, a toothbrush, and a padlock, among other daily necessities.
"Qingqing! Come here and see if you need anything. Mom bought you two sets of long-sleeved shirts and trousers. There's also a piece of green cloth at home, so Mom will make you a military uniform. There are also two pairs of cloth shoes for when you go out to work. Take a few clothes from your closet, but don't bring too many! If you need anything, Mom will send it to you!"
“You won’t be able to carry too much stuff. Just bring the thin blanket you’re using now. Mom will send you the new, thicker blanket later.”
At this moment, Dong Xiulan was sitting on the bed, holding a net bag and putting things into it.
Besides two sets of clothes and two pairs of shoes, there was also a piece of floral fabric. Dong Xiulan put a box of face cream, a bar of soap, and the thermos, tea mug, and washbasin on the table into the net bag!
Fold the clothes and other fabrics neatly and place them on the bed so they can be packed together with the blankets later!
"Mom, the basic necessities are all here, and there are still 4 days left! We can buy anything else we need."
