Chapter 17 Fishing Enforcement
Yang Shulan was stunned. Although she didn't know why her sister-in-law suddenly said that, she still nodded and said, "Yes..."
"Why do you suddenly want to go into town?"
Jiang Dazhuang was a little confused.
My daughter-in-law has never liked running around, let alone going to the city. Apart from working in the fields every day, she is basically unwilling to leave home.
He was curious today as to why they had to come out to collect firewood. This would have been impossible before.
"I……"
Yang Shulan opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Sister-in-law has never been to the city. I told you it's quite interesting, so you want to go take a look."
Jiang Anan said this without blushing or beating her heart.
After hearing this, Jiang Dazhuang had no doubts.
"Okay, since we have nothing to do today, let's go into town for a walk and then come back to pick up some firewood."
With that, the three of them went into the city.
When they arrived in the city, Jiang Anan was already familiar with the place. After asking Yang Shulan to help lure Jiang Dazhuang away, she went around to an alley and took out ten more pairs of socks from the space.
"Where did this come from?"
After Jiang Anan went back to meet the two of them, Jiang Dazhuang was a little confused.
What's more, these socks look similar to the ones their sister gave them yesterday.
"This belongs to my friend. He wanted me to help him exchange some things with someone."
"Change things?"
Jiang Dazhuang was puzzled.
But Yang Shulan reacted quickly and understood immediately that her sister-in-law came to the city to engage in reselling.
No wonder I was able to bring back six kilograms of rice yesterday!
"An An, give a few pairs to me and Da Zhuang, and we'll help you sell them...in exchange for something?"
"No, the two of us?!"
Jiang Dazhuang was stunned.
But Yang Shulan ignored him and just looked at Jiang Anan.
"Okay, sister-in-law, I'll trouble you and brother. Two kilograms of rice can be exchanged for a pair of socks."
Jiang Anan couldn't ask for more.
However, she did not tell them about the sale. If she was caught exchanging things, she could still explain it away, but if she was selling it for money, it would be hard to say what would happen if she was caught.
So Yang Shulan was assigned four pairs, while Jiang Anan took six pairs herself. They agreed to meet here before three o'clock, and then they split into two groups.
Jiang Anan was still frightened after meeting the man in the Zhongshan suit last time. She decided not to go there to sell and instead changed direction.
But she did change the place, but Jiang Dazhuang and his wife happened to go to that place.
"You socks..."
The old lady recognized at a glance that these socks were the same style that the girl sold yesterday.
"Isn't the style nice? We don't have anything like this in Hecheng!"
Yang Shulan quickly introduced.
Jiang Dazhuang, who was standing by, was dumbfounded.
This... is this his introverted daughter-in-law?
"Are you with that little girl from yesterday?"
The old lady asked curiously.
After Yang Shulan finished listening, she was not sure whether the old lady was good or bad, so she asked curiously, "Which little girl?"
"She's a pretty girl with a brush-like hairstyle. I exchanged a few pairs of socks from her yesterday."
After the old lady said this, Jiang Dazhuang and Yang Shulan were both sure that this person was Jiang Anan.
"yes……"
Jiang Dazhuang was about to respond, but Yang Shulan spoke first: "You want socks today too?"
Avoid talking about this topic.
She had no idea what the old lady wanted to know and was worried about causing trouble for An An.
"Oh, yes, yes!" The old lady suddenly remembered the important matter, "But it's not me who wants it, it's..."
——
Jiang Anan sneezed.
Who is talking about her?
She had already exchanged the socks she had for several kilograms of rice. She was a little worried about Yang Shulan. After all, neither of them had ever done business, and doing business in this era was very dangerous.
After much thought, she decided to go to the agreed meeting place first, in case they got into trouble and couldn't find her.
Coincidentally, Yang Shulan and the other two were already there.
“Sold out?”
Jiang Anan was stunned.
"Yeah, An An, someone has bought all our socks, look!"
After Yang Shulan finished speaking, she pointed to the bags of rice in Jiang Dazhuang's hands.
All inclusive?
Jiang Anan frowned.
This pair of socks is worth two kilograms of rice. Could it be...
"What does that person look like?"
Yang Shulan then gave a description.
After hearing the first sentence, Jiang Anan knew who it was.
That old lady again?
"But the one who gave the rice was not this old lady, but..."
Before Yang Shulan finished her words, Jiang Anan saw the figure in the Zhongshan suit!
Oops, this isn't the one from yesterday...
Just as he was about to take Yang Shulan and the other person and run away, the other party came over quickly.
"I heard from my mom that these socks were made by your relatives?"
The man in the Zhongshan suit asked.
Jiang Anan remained silent.
It’s not right to run now, and it’s not right not to run either.
It turns out that the old lady was trying to lure people into the law!
Without saying a word.
A hint of doubt flashed across the eyes of the man in the Zhongshan suit, but he reacted the next moment.
"Don't worry, little girl. I have no ill intentions. The truth is, you have a lot of sock styles, and I want to buy a batch."
“Acquisition?!”
Jiang Anan was stunned.
Is she dreaming?
Yesterday she was still thinking that she might be caught one day for reselling things in secret, and it would be great if someone could come down from the sky and buy all her stuff.
It was just talk at first, but now someone actually wants to buy her socks? !
"Can I ask which unit you are from?"
While surprised, Jiang Anan did not forget to confirm.
In modern times, there is no problem with individual purchases, but this was 1979, and reform policies in all aspects had not yet been popularized. If individuals bought and sold things in large quantities, they would have to go to jail if someone really cracked down on it.
"I'm from the supply and marketing cooperative!"
As the middle-aged man spoke, he took out his work ID and handed it to her.
Jiang Anan took it and took a look, and found that it was indeed a buyer from the supply and marketing cooperative!
On the other side, Sihe Village.
The sun was at its highest point, and Zhao Chunmei found a shady spot to sit and drink some water to cool off, her eyes moving among the villagers who were working.
"Sister Chunmei."
Accountant Li came over.
"What's wrong?"
Zhao Chunmei didn't look at him.
"The village chief and the brigade secretary should have assigned tasks to the Jiang family, right?"
Accountant Li squatted down and asked in a low voice.
Zhao Chunmei turned around and stared at him when she heard this. "Accountant Li, what do you mean by this? Are you deliberately not assigning tasks to the Jiang family?"
"No..." Accountant Li was stunned. "Sister Chunmei, why are you blaming me? This notebook passed through your hands this morning. I saw the Jiang family's name on it, but when you returned it, a page was missing..."
"Accountant Li!" Zhao Chunmei shouted through gritted teeth, "You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want! If it weren't for my man, would you be able to become the village accountant? People should learn to be grateful!"
After listening to this, Accountant Li opened his mouth, but finally fell silent.
Oh!
How did the Jiang family offend Zhao Chunmei? Originally, the Jiang family was the poorest family in the village. Now it is still like this. How much food can they get by the end of the year?
Won’t you starve to death next year?
Poor thing!
Zhao Chunmei glanced at Accountant Li's sighing face and sneered.
Jiang Anan, how long can you be so proud? No one can help you!
