Chapter 235 The Honest Man Explodes



After dinner, Li Xiyue closed the door early and went into the house to move out the feather duster piled in a corner of the warehouse.

Feather dusters are made from the feathers on chicken necks and tails, and there isn't much of them, so even after accumulating them for more than a year, there are only about twenty of them.

In this era, almost every family has a feather duster. Most of them make it themselves by accumulating feathers when killing chickens. Li Xiyue is not sure whether the feather duster will sell well.

Go and give it a try. If it doesn’t sell well, sell something else. She also packed some grain, fruits, chicken, duck, fish, and eggs.

Wang Jiaxing borrowed a cart from the village and moved all the wine in the backyard away, except for Li Xiyue's.

This time, Wang Jiaxing and Zhou Yunze went together again. On the cart were tied small wine jars and several sacks. The sacks were still moving, and they were alive.

After Zhou Yunxia became a timekeeper, her life became much more relaxed. She discovered that her special abilities had become even more powerful. Not only did her attack power increase, but she could also sense nearby prey and even summon them to her presence.

This discovery made her happy for a long time. In this way, she no longer had to look for prey herself. She could just summon the prey nearby and catch it, saving time and effort.

So now she only needs to take a little time every day to go up the mountain and she can get a lot of prey.

Hearing the footsteps leaving in the yard, Li Xiyue also set off.

She changed her appearance, found an empty spot in the black market, took out her goods from her backpack and placed them one by one.

As expected, the feather duster was not easy to sell and no one even asked about it. Li Xiyue gave up and decided to sell it in the space mall.

Fruits and vegetables are not as easy to sell as meat because there is too little meat and you need a ticket. The meat at the meat processing plant is in short supply every day, so many people come to the black market to buy it.

Black market prices are high, but no tickets are required.

Although fruits and vegetables are not as easy to sell as meat and grains, Li Xiyue's fruits and vegetables look fresh and delicious, so she still sold a lot of them.

Li Xiyue had already sold a round of goods when Wang Jiaxing and Zhou Yunze finally arrived.

They pushed the cart straight in and placed it on the empty seat next to Li Xiyue.

The two men were sweating profusely and didn't even bother to wipe the sweat off before they started shouting out their wares.

The two of them have quite a few regular customers. When they call out, many people come over, and the stall is very lively.

Because there was a lot of stock, Wang Jiaxing sold it at a slightly cheaper price than before, so more people bought it.

The important thing is that the wine is good and most of the customers are repeat customers.

After about an hour, all the wine and prey were sold out. The two men wiped the sweat from their faces and pushed the cart away.

Just as we were leaving the black market, a whistle sounded.

The two looked at each other in horror and shouted in unison: "Run!"

He pushed the cart and ran out as if he was risking his life.

Shortly after they left, a group of police rushed into the black market, causing chaos inside.

Although they left the black market, the two men still did not dare to stop and kept running while pushing the cart. There seemed to be a sound of footsteps behind them. Their hearts were pounding and their steps were brisk.

But the footsteps kept chasing them, and there was a dead end ahead, and despair appeared in the eyes of both of them.

What made them even more desperate was that someone climbed over the wall of the dead end, and they could hear the shouts of the police from behind the wall.

"Go this way!" The person behind them rushed over and shouted at the two of them.

When the two men saw that they were traveling together, they felt relieved and without saying a word, they pushed the cart and followed him.

So, on this moonless night, the commune staged a thrilling game of chase and escape, where you chased and I escaped again.

Fortunately, it didn't get to the point where it was impossible to escape.

"Okay, no need to run anymore." Xujia Village was just ahead, and Zhou Yunze stopped panting.

Wang Jiaxing's heart, which had been hanging in the air all night, fell back into his stomach. He sat down on the ground, took off the cloth covering his face, and gasped for breath.

After a long while, Zhou Yunze looked at the young man who was also sitting on the ground and panting awkwardly, "Thanks, brother."

If he hadn't led them out just now, they would have been caught by now.

If you get caught, nine times out of ten you'll be sent to a farm and that's the end of it.

It was the first time they encountered the police arresting people in all the time they had been going to the black market, and they were both very scared.

Li Xiyue, transformed into a young man, waved his hand tiredly.

Zhou Yunze thought he meant you're welcome, but he heard him say, "Words are too pale. How about something more practical?"

As he spoke, he also made a gesture of counting money, trying not to make his meaning too obvious.

Zhou Yunze: “…”

Wang Jiaxing: “…”

After all, the other party had helped them a lot, so the two of them were not stingy and each gave her a dollar as a thank you gift.

Li Xiyue accepted it without hesitation. She had been sweating all over to save them, and she couldn't let all that sweat go to waste, right?

Besides, tonight, Zhou Yunze sold his prey for at least fifty yuan, and Wang Jiaxing sold a cart of wine for about thirty yuan.

Giving her one piece per person is nothing.

"Are you also from the Red Sun Production Brigade?" Wang Jiaxing asked.

Li Xiyue shook her head. "No, I'm from the Red Flag Production Brigade."

"Then you ran across the aisle." Wang Jiaxing wiped his sweat and pointed in a direction. "The Red Flag Production Brigade is over there."

"It's okay, I can just go back along the river." Li Xiyue said as he got up, put on the backpack and left.

Zhou Yunze asked: "Brother, I still don't know your name?"

"We are both wanderers in this world, so why should we know each other when we meet?" Li Xiyue disappeared into the night after pretending to be cool.

Zhou Yunze's mouth twitched, and he didn't stay any longer. He pushed the cart back to the village with Wang Jiaxing.

After everyone left, Li Xiyue entered the space and returned to the health room.

It was not until she came out of the space after washing up that the sound of a cart was heard outside the yard. She smiled, crawled into bed and went to sleep.
