The black market that day was even busier than usual. People bought things as if they were free, buying whatever they saw. As soon as Qiao Mo and his friends put down their baskets, they were surrounded by a large group of people.
"What do you have, young man?"
"Auntie, we have pork and chicken here." Qiao Mo lifted the cloth on the basket to let everyone see the goods. "The freshest pork and chicken are all killed this morning."
"How much are these?" When several aunts saw the meat and chicken in the baskets, their eyes lit up.
"Pork is 2.2 yuan per pound, and chicken is about 4 pounds, 6 yuan each." Qiao Mo held the chicken in her hand to show everyone. Chickens in this era were not so big, and the price would not be so high, so she let everyone see the size.
"Young man, this price is too expensive, please make it less." Someone bargained.
"Auntie, the purchase price has increased in the past few days. If we lower it any further, there will be no profit." Wu Weiqian said with a smile. Before entering the black market, Qiao Mo had already told them the price of the black market today. They couldn't lower the price without authorization. Otherwise, they would have no place to stand in the black market in the future.
"Young man, give me two pounds of meat and a chicken." Some people know the rules of the black market. The price is uniform, and it is impossible for these young men to lower the price.
"Chenghui, ten dollars and forty cents." Wu Weiqian quickly took out two pieces of meat and a chicken and gave it to him.
Once we got started, the others stopped bargaining. You wanted two pounds of meat, and I wanted a chicken. In less than two hours, the three of us had bought everything in our baskets.
"Brother, second brother, you two go back first. I have some things to do over there." After leaving the black market, Qiao Mo said goodbye to Wu Weiqian.
"Little sister, it's not dawn yet. Where are you going? Do you want us to accompany you?" Wu Weiqian asked worriedly when he saw that it was not yet fully light.
"I just went to get some things from my friend. Don't worry, brother." Qiao Mo didn't dare to let them accompany him. He waved goodbye to them and ran away.
"Little sister, you really run faster than a rabbit." Wu Weijin looked at Qiao Moyuan's back, smiled and shook his head.
"Let's go home. It will be dawn if we are late." Wu Weiqian walked quickly towards home. They all put on makeup. If they didn't go home before dawn, it would be troublesome if they met acquaintances.
Qiao Mo walked under the stone arch bridge, released her spiritual sense to scan, and after confirming that there was no one around, she flashed into the space, first went to the bathroom to wash off her makeup, changed into her own clothes, and then went to the room to prepare supplies: it was past midnight, and she wanted to take out some supplies for a snack.
She walked around the room twice, and finally took out five pounds of pork, two pounds of beef brisket, a chicken, a duck, a leg of mutton and two bottles of wine. She put all the things into the backpack, and after leaving the space, she walked leisurely towards the Wu family with the backpack on her back.
"Godfather, godmother, I'm back." When Qiao Mo walked into the house, he saw Wu Yuanxin and his wife sitting in the living room listening to the radio, so he shouted loudly.
"Xiao Mo, what did you bring back?" Wu Yuanxin saw that her backpack was heavy and knew that there must be something in it.
"It's past midnight, and I got some meat from a friend." Qiao Mo carried the basket into the kitchen and took out the things inside one by one.
"Little sister, how did you get so many things?" Wu Weijin, who was watching the fire and making steamed buns in the kitchen, couldn't help but ask when he saw Qiao Mo taking out so many things.
