Although Lu Xia didn't know whether what he said was true, he decided to wait and see.
I walked around the black market again and saw some people selling watermelons and cantaloupes. The prices were not expensive. I was craving for some fruit as I was a bit tired of the apples and pears in my space, so I bought them all and planned to eat them when I got home.
Just after I finished the purchase, I saw the man coming back panting. It was just like he said, very close, and it took less than five minutes.
He didn't bring much wool, probably only enough for her to knit a women's sweater. The color was a bit ugly, gray and brown, but the price was really expensive, asking 12 yuan.
She finally figured out why he hadn't brought it before, probably because he was afraid that it wouldn't be able to sell.
But Lu Xia still bought it. She thought that she would knit herself a sweater when the time comes. It would be warm enough to wear next to the skin, so she wouldn't be afraid of the cold winter in Northeast China.
The man was very happy to see her so happy and gave her a few needles.
Then Lu Xia paid the money and left with the melon on his back.
After coming out and seeing that no one was following him, he returned to the alley he had been in, changed back into his previous clothes, removed the makeup on his face, put the backpack and fruits into the space, and went out with the wool in his hand.
As soon as I came out and walked on the road, I saw a large group of people with red cloth tied on their shoulders chasing a group of people carrying things.
...
...
"Stop right there! All those who engage in speculation will be sent to jail!"
But these people seemed to be used to it, and soon they scattered and disappeared.
So the people behind didn’t catch any of them and they kept cursing at the back.
When Lu Xia saw this, he left quickly.
I felt a little scared, but luckily she left early!
It seems that the black market in this county is still somewhat dangerous, so try to come here less often in the future.
When arriving at the station, Lu Xia took not only the wool but also a thermos.
This was what she took out from the space. She had wanted to take it out before, but the thermos was easily broken, so she couldn't put it in her luggage and bring it with her, nor could she take it out under the name of mailing it.
There was only one style sold in the town, so every time the other members of the educated youth group went to the town, they had to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to have a look, but they didn't have tickets if they wanted to buy.
So Lu Xia couldn't take it out either.
This time when she came to the county town, she saw the style she bought, so she finally had the chance to take it out.
This way, she won't have to use other people's hot water every time she drinks malted milk, which is very inconvenient and also requires a favor.
Many of the pastries she brought with her could not be given away because she had to use other people's hot water.
When they arrived at the station, Sun Shengnan was envious of the wool and kettle she brought, especially the kettle.
"You bought a kettle, that's great. This one looks bigger than the ones sold in town."
Lu Xia smiled and said, "Yeah, I thought it was inconvenient to live without a kettle, so I bought one."
Seeing how easily she said it, Sun Shengnan was even more envious. "It's a good idea to buy it. It's cold here in the winter, and having a kettle would be a lot more practical."
Lu Xia nodded, didn't continue the topic, and asked her about sending things.
The two chatted for a while, and then other people arrived. They talked about their gains, and then the car pulled into the station. They bought tickets and got on the car, which soon headed back.
It was already past six o'clock when we arrived in town.
Fortunately, Lu Xia didn't feel as uncomfortable as when he went there.
By this time the rain had stopped and the air was a little humid.
After getting off the bus, they quickly walked back to the educated youth point.
When I got back, I found everyone sitting in the yard eating melons.
I was really eating melons, including watermelons and cantaloupes.
After asking, I found out that these were bought by Jiang Junmo. They were grown by the villagers themselves. When he saw them, he bought some and brought them back for everyone to eat.
The educated youth were all very happy.
