Chapter 44 Black Market Legend
Liu Qingqing hummed an unknown tune and rode her bicycle home.
We are almost home.
A person suddenly jumped out from the entrance of the alley next to her and almost knocked her over.
Excited, she threw down her bicycle and jumped off.
The car fell with a loud clang.
Then several people wearing red armbands rushed out.
She was running very fast and soon caught up with the person who had knocked her down.
A man with a red armband reached out and grabbed, but instead of catching anyone, he pulled out their hair.
The person's hair was exposed - it was a woman.
The man with the red armband was startled. When he saw it was a wig, he threw it to the ground angrily and rushed to chase after it.
After taking a few steps, several people wearing red armbands worked together to push the man to the ground.
The basket that the woman who was pinned down was carrying rolled to the ground, and some plastic bags of rice, noodles, and some golden monkeys spilled out of the basket.
Two red armbands held down his arms, and the others picked up the baskets and food on the ground and walked out.
Liu Qingqing blinked and looked towards the entrance of the alley. It was pitch black and she couldn't see anything.
He turned his head to look at those people again, and they also walked away.
She picked up the bicycle that was still lying on the ground.
I pushed the bike two steps and checked to see that the chain was not off.
After calming himself down, he prepared to run and kick again.
Two more of the group with red armbands came over and asked, "What do you do?"
Liu Qingqing turned her head and looked at the words on the red armband.
"I just got off work. What's wrong?"
The red armband girl, Zhizhi, then asked, "What are you doing here?"
Liu Qingqing pointed at the car: "That guy just rushed out and knocked me down. If I hadn't jumped quickly, I would have fallen with the car. I just fixed the car, but it was so wicked. Look at how my car has been scratched."
The two of them took a closer look, and the woman with the red armband asked, "Where do you work?"
"From the supply and marketing department." Liu Qingqing answered honestly.
The woman with the red armband waved her hand: "Alright, Zhi, hurry up and leave. This is a public institution."
Liu Qingqing nodded in response and continued pushing the cart.
After arriving home, Liu Qingqing suddenly felt uneasy.
After dinner, she went next door to talk to Mrs. Zhou.
"Sister-in-law, do you know what happened? Why did they come to our place to arrest someone?"
When Liu Qingqing told her about the alley robbery, Mrs. Zhou immediately became mysterious.
"Sister, you've asked the right person. I know. I heard that the black market has moved to the alley behind the fertilizer plant. The patrol team will catch them in the next few days." The black market is the unofficial name for the black market. This was also a private chat for fear of being overheard by others and causing trouble.
Liu Qingqing had been here for so long, and she had no idea there was a black market nearby: "Why haven't I heard of it here before?"
"They hide it very tightly. Usually there is no insider to guide it. No one knows where it is. How can they notify others in a high-profile manner?" Mrs. Zhou lowered her voice.
"Sister-in-law, why are your voices getting softer and softer? It's so creepy." It sounded like she was telling a ghost story.
Mrs. Zhou coughed and said embarrassedly, "I just wanted to keep my voice down unconsciously."
"We need to move to another place now, right?" It's become like this.
"If you keep changing every other day, you definitely can't come here anymore."
"Sister-in-law, what should we do with the person being housed, who is a woman?" She remembered someone saying the worst possible punishment would be execution, but she didn't know whether it was true or not.
"First, they'll be approved for a period of time, and then they'll go to jail." Mrs. Zhou wasn't very clear about the details.
Liu Qingqing nodded.
Don't let this frightening thing happen in front of her.
As for the matter of catching speculators and profiteers, the alley people only treated it as a novelty for one day and then no one mentioned it again.
The black market moves from place to place every time it makes a move, and the patrol team sets out fishing lines everywhere to catch fish every day.
None of them are new topics of conversation.
Liu Qingqing became more determined that she couldn't go to this place.
She has food to eat and drinks to drink, so why would she do such a dangerous thing?
But you have to be careful about what you eat and drink now.
Meat and other things taste good once cooked. She basically cooks them in the space and saves them to eat slowly.
When I got home, I locked all the doors inside and outside.
The curtains were drawn tight and people entered the space.
She piled the tea leaves that she was going to give to Director Li in the storage room.
All the things that are usually not used are here, and she still needs to look carefully for them.
To be honest, she didn't lie about the tea.
It is indeed from Wuyi.
"Jianyang Supply and Marketing Wuyi Tea"
I won a bunch of them in the raffle, and that’s how the name came out.
Fortunately, these things she has are no different from those on the market.
It has a source and a name.
Different things, except for the sanitary 㦫 and the big spider.
She never took anything out.
She only used the sanitary napkin for the first two days.
Never take out spare parts.
Later, when the amount was less, she would use the toilet paper at that time.
A safe bet is a long one.
There’s no fun if the boat capsizes.
She hasn't been going into the space much lately. She occasionally uses her consciousness to look inside, harvest the land, plant vegetables, and draw prizes.
When last month's salary came in, she put in a small amount.
"10 cigarettes specially supplied for internal needs"
…
Another ten dollars lost.
—————————————
When she arrived at the Supply and Marketing Office early in the morning, Liu Qingqing put a box of tea on Director Li's desk.
She never showed up again.
Since we had already mentioned it yesterday, when she delivered it today, Director Li also knew who took it.
There's no need to show up and say a few polite words as if to take credit.
This can easily make people feel disgusted.
After leaving Director Li's office, Liu Qingqing went to her workstation.
"Liu Qizhi, here you come."
It was Sun Yingxia who was stuck in the order yesterday.
"Hey, Sun Qizhi, you're up pretty early too." Liu Qingqing nodded.
She stepped onto her own platform and took a deep breath.
Every day I feel like I’m going to court.
There was a "whoosh" sound in her ears, and Liu Qingqing subconsciously stretched out her hand.
Grab the bill...
