It was still early, so Xiang Nuan and Zhou Yun, the accountant who came for the training together, settled down and rested in the guesthouse for a while before going out to find food.
I found a place to have a simple lunch and then slowly went to the place where I would go to class.
"Xiao Xiang, let's go shopping. We finally made it to the provincial capital, and I want to bring some things back to my family. My neighbor also asked me to bring some things back. I don't know how to arrange my class time later, so I'm afraid I won't have a chance to go shopping properly."
It was not yet two o'clock when they finished checking out the spots, so there was still plenty of time, so Zhou Yun suggested going shopping.
"OK."
Xiang Nuan had never been here before and was quite interested, so she nodded and agreed.
As the two of them walked on the road, Zhou Yun looked at Xiang Nuan and asked tentatively in a low voice, "Xiao Xiang, I heard that there are a lot of hot-selling goods in the black market in the provincial capital. Do you know about this?"
To be honest, this time when she came to the provincial capital, she wanted to take the opportunity to buy some things on the black market that were not available in the base, but she didn't dare to do it alone, so she wanted to pull Xiang Nuan along.
Xiang Nuan shook her head, "I haven't heard of it."
She also wanted to find an opportunity to go to the black market, but she planned to go alone, but she didn't expect Zhou Yun to bring it up first.
Zhou Yun suggested, "How about we go back and ask someone about it, and then go and have a look secretly?"
Xiang Nuan raised her eyebrows slightly, "Is it possible? What if we get caught?"
"Hey, you usually seem very brave, why are you so cowardly now? I don't think we are that unlucky."
Xiang Nuan hesitated for a few seconds with an embarrassed look on her face before she made up her mind and nodded, "Okay, then, we'll go together after you've found out!"
She was wondering how to find out.
Seeing how timid she was, Zhou Yun smiled and patted his chest, "Don't worry, I'll take care of it!"
The next morning, the two arrived at the training venue more than ten minutes early. Xiang Nuan and Zhou Yun were not in the same class, so after they separated, Xiang Nuan went to the cashier training class alone. At this time, quite a few people had already arrived, estimated to be more than thirty. She didn't know them, so she found an empty seat and sat down first.
Soon it was time for class. The teacher came in, introduced himself and started to call the roll. This learning opportunity was rare and all the students were excellent representatives recommended by the factory, so everyone cherished it and no one was late or absent.
The teacher called the roll and introduced himself before the class officially began. The teacher on the podium spoke seriously, and the students below also listened carefully and took notes. Xiang Nuan felt that she benefited a lot and took notes very quickly.
The course schedule here is not very tight, but not too easy either. There are three hours in the morning and three hours in the afternoon. The first two hours are for studying and the next hour is for doing exercises or taking exams. This makes Xiang Nuan feel like he is back in school.
After three days of classes, Zhou Yun came to Xiang Nuan during lunch break and told her that she had found out everything and would come over on Sunday when she had the day off. Xiang Nuan nodded and agreed.
Suddenly it was Sunday, and the two went to the black market without having breakfast. Because they were afraid of being investigated, many people in the black market traded secretly when the people from the Revolutionary Committee were not at work, so they could avoid a lot of risks.
Xiang Nuan followed Zhou Yun through many twists and turns and finally arrived at a narrow street. There were many people squatting on both sides of the road. Some of them had things placed in front of them, while others were carrying a large basket covered with cloth so that they couldn't see what was inside. When they saw someone coming, they quietly approached to ask. As soon as the two of them appeared, they were stared at.
A woman with short hair came over with a basket, looked at the two of them, and whispered, "Do you want sugar? One dollar and four cents a pound, no ticket required."
Xiang Nuan raised her eyebrows when she heard this. Is this the price in the black market? The black market is indeed shady. This is twice the market price.
