Suddenly I thought of that sickly guy again...
Tsk tsk…
Suddenly I feel like going over to see the show, right?
If it weren't for Ye Shan's previous deterrent effect, I really might have gone to the house to inquire about the situation.
Ye Shan came all the way to the town and went to see Zhou Qi first.
After so many transactions, Ye Shan finally revealed her identity.
If Zhou Qi is not a fool, he will not let go of such a backer.
"Miss Ye, why are you in town so early? I heard that yesterday was your wedding night... The man in your family is not good enough!"
After spending so much time together, I kind of understand this girl's personality, and it's harmless to joke with her occasionally.
"Come on! I'm here to talk to you about something!"
Judging from her serious expression, it probably has nothing to do with the transaction.
"Go ahead, I'm listening!"
"Have there been any suspicious people or movements in town recently?"
Zhou Qi was stunned by this sudden question.
"No... I'm just a black market shopper. I usually have no time to hide from people, so how can I find suspicious people?"
It seems that there is no news?
"If you really feel something is wrong, you must tell me. Although we are in the black market, in the end, only when the people's lives are better can our lives be better!"
Zhou Qi himself is not a bad person.
They come to this black market because they can't find a job in the city and don't want to do farm work in the countryside.
But as a Chinese, the patriotic sentiment is still in my heart.
"Miss Ye, tell me honestly, has something happened? If it's really something serious, I'll have my brothers disperse to get some information for you!"
"Don't think we're a bit shameful here, but sometimes we have more information than you guys."
Cats have their ways and mice have their ways. If you want to make it in the black market, how can you not be well-informed?
The reason why this matter did not spread was probably because I was responsible for the matter myself and went directly to the county armed forces department.
"To be honest, several villages nearby have been building a reservoir. I spotted a few suspicious people while they were working on the reservoir and even arrested one."
"Although I didn't get any information from the interrogation, the more secretive they are, the bigger the operation. I guess my arrest might have alerted the enemy, and they should take action..."
Zhou Qi's expression suddenly became serious.
The period of national crisis is still very recent, and the blood feuds of the past still linger in our hearts.
Although what I do may not be so aboveboard, I will certainly not refuse when I can contribute.
"Don't worry, I'll go gather my brothers right away! I'll give them the money they want and make sure this town is airtight!"
"And over in the county, that's my cousin's territory. Although his influence may not be able to spread across the entire county, it should still be able to play a certain role!"
Ye Shan nodded.
It would be best if someone could help.
There are people from all walks of life in the black market, and there may be no corner in this town that they cannot infiltrate.
"You don't have to explain it too clearly. Just let people keep an eye out for any suspicious activity."
"I'll be traveling around town and county quite a bit these days. If I find anything wrong, especially at the gate of the yard where we're doing business, tie a yellow ribbon around it!"
After explaining the situation, Ye Shan started running around the streets and alleys with a backpack on her back.
She also deliberately made her face yellow, making herself look like a middle-aged woman.
People who look like this are usually rural women. They carry whatever they have left at home and wander around the streets and alleys with it on their backs. You never know who they might meet and they might buy something from their backpacks.
Sure enough, as soon as he arrived at the gate of a large courtyard, he was stopped by a group of women sitting around a sycamore tree.
"Hey sister, what are you pretending to be?"
It’s indeed a familiar routine.
I heard this by chance when I was listening to the chat of the village aunties.
"I just brought back some new flour from home and wanted to give it to the second uncle in the village, but I've been looking for him for a long time and I can't remember where he lives!"
"Big sister, it doesn't matter if we can't find this person, but it's tiring to carry all this flour back. Otherwise, we can replace it for you!"
These are all old arguments.
Ye Shan had always wanted to mingle with these people, so she didn't hesitate and was directly dragged into the compound by them.
"Big sister, is there anything new happening in your family compound? I can brag about it when I go back to my fellow villagers!"
Speaking of this, the women around here are quite interesting. One by one they come forward and talk about what’s happening in the family compound.
This was originally a textile factory that specialized in making towels.
Most of these women are older, and their daughters-in-law work in textile factories. They are either walking their children or chatting at home.
"Speaking of this, it's quite interesting."
"The second-in-command at the factory, the deputy director, I don't know what sin he committed. He only has one son at such an old age. A few days ago, he bought a daughter-in-law from the countryside."
"But this son is stupid and doesn't know how to enter the bridal chamber. But a month later, this wife is pregnant. Guess what?"
Ye Shan's eyes widened.
In this day and age, there are still people trafficking in human beings?
The most important thing is that my wife is pregnant...
"The deputy director's wife has been calling me a vixen these days. I guess that kid..."
Several women smiled meaningfully, and their smiles were as obscene as they could be.
I guess that kid is the deputy factory director!
"I didn't expect your town to be so chaotic! We villagers wouldn't dare to do that!"
"What can we do? What can the deputy director's wife do? If we want to hate someone, we can only blame him for not living up to his expectations. He gave birth to a son who turned out to be a fool!"
"And that deputy factory director? He has a brother who's on the Revolutionary Committee. Who dares to arrest him?"
Ye Shan has always been very focused. She never cares about things outside of her tasks. Moreover, based on her level, she is afraid that she cannot catch a deputy factory director.
Just treat this kind of thing as a fun thing to listen to.
But this trick is really effective.
Ye Shan suddenly remembered the intelligence network established by their master in their previous life.
How can you be as powerful as these nagging aunties!
Following this routine, Ye Shan strolled through the entire town until dark, but did not hear any news. Even the gate of the yard was quiet, and the yellow ribbon was never hung.
Ye Shan has always been a patient person. She once lay in ambush in the snow for three days to ambush someone.
It’s only the first day of running, how can there be results so soon?
Soon it was evening, and Ye Shan went directly to the state-owned restaurant to have breakfast and dinner. She also took a stroll around the area to make sure there was no news before preparing to go back.
Who would have thought that a surprise was just around the corner.
