Xu Xiaoyu didn't hide it either. There were fewer people looking at the store, so she whispered her purpose.

"Sister Yang, my family has sent me something again. It's a piece of good-quality fabric. You see, I don't lack any clothes. I just want to make some money by selling this piece of fabric. Look at this thing. Can you take it to the black market and sell it?”

As he said that, he pretended to take out the piece of Ruozhu beast cloth from the bag and placed it flatly on the table for her to inspect.

From the moment she took out the fabric, Sister Yang didn't dare to look away. No matter how many good things she had seen, she had never seen such radiant fabric. This natural color...the tight stitching, completely Not a single flaw.

The weight and drape...

Good guy, the things offered as offerings in ancient times were nothing more than this. This thing is too beautiful... This girl is so ignorant that she just sells it out casually. The adults in the family know what they think...

But she also knew that it was definitely not simple for a family to be able to provide these things. Sister Yang only knew that this girl had a little money before. How could she expect to be able to sell such things casually?That must be at least someone from the upper compound.

Thinking of this, her expression became more serious. She wiped her hands and looked at the piece of fabric carefully. After measuring it with a soft ruler, she gave an accurate reply.

"This piece of material is very good and the size is right. If I can sell it, it will cost at least 600 yuan. I will tell you the truth. This thing is not suitable for selling on the black market. Most of the black market transactions are based on daily needs. Most of them are grains, oils, rice and noodles, and those who know the goods might be targeted..."

"If you don't worry about Sister Yang, just leave this thing here. The wife of Secretary Tianwang came here a few days ago. She made a special trip to ask me if I had any good materials and wanted to make some clothes for traveling... I just said I’ve been worrying about this, but now I have the best of both worlds.”

600 yuan is enough in this era. You must know that even front-line workers in the county only earn more than 300 yuan a year. There are even lower wages of 10 yuan or 15 yuan a month. It can be seen that 600 yuan is prohibitive for ordinary people. The sky-high price.

The price given by Sister Yang was indeed fair. Xu Xiaoyu had nothing to say, and by leaving the things with her, she saved herself the trouble.

"Then thank you sister! I have nothing to worry about. I have to thank Sister Yang for helping me..."

After thinking about it, she added with a smile.

"This piece of cloth is equivalent to what I left in Sister Yang's place to sell. I'm very satisfied with the price of 600. If the final price goes up a little bit, it will all be regarded as the intermediate fee for Sister Yang, no matter how much it is sold. For money, I only need 600..."

As soon as these words came out, Sister Yang opened her mouth in shock, and her eyebrows showed a happy expression unconsciously.

600 was originally her conservative estimate. When the secretary's wife came, she gave her a similar price. But judging from the quality of this piece of cloth, it could definitely go higher. It would cost another 30 to [-] yuan. possible.

This little girl is so generous. She is so good at being a good person at such a young age. Sister Yang is very pleased with her. Her attitude is better than before, but she almost didn't force her to admit her as a sister.

"Okay, you are a generous girl. Sister Yang also remembers you. Your name is Xiaoyu, right? If you have anything to do in the future, you can come to me. As long as Sister Yang can do it, she will definitely help you..."

Xu Xiaoyu didn't think so long-term, she just wanted to make a good relationship casually, and there would be many ways to do it in the future. Anyway, this piece of cloth was no different to her than getting it for free. Selling it for 600 yuan was enough to make a profit.

"Now I have one thing to trouble Sister Yang. In addition to this piece of cloth, I also have some pork in my hand that I want to sell. I still have to go to the black market. Sister Yang, can you tell me where the black market is in this county? I It’s also my first time going back, so I’m afraid I won’t be able to find the right place.”

"Why bother with such a trivial matter? The black market is not far from here. When you go out and turn left, enter the second alley and keep walking forward. You will see it... Remember to cover your face when you enter that place. Don’t let others forget your appearance, when doing business, look for some corners to do business, don’t look back when you hear any noise, run out quickly.”

Xu Xiaoyu did not expect that black market transactions in this era were so thrilling.

But if you think about it, you can understand that in the 70s, materials were scarce, economic development was slow, and open transactions were not allowed. Those who were hungry and had no choice but to choose this path. The consequence was that they were on tenterhooks, fearing that one day a group of people would break out. Caught yourself.

There is no doubt that this is very dangerous, but this is a relatively stable trading channel that Xu Xiaoyu has access to. For the sake of future long-term transactions, she still plans to go and have a look.

Following the directions given by Sister Yang, Xu Xiaoyu put on a disguise, borrowed a piece of coarse cloth from Sister Yang and wrapped it around her head. She then smeared some ash on her face and made sure that even her mother could not recognize her before turning the second alley. , came to the so-called black market.

It's surprisingly simple here. There are several dark sheds set up on a narrow alley. The few people here are elderly village women. They squat in front of their stalls, with only a few boxes placed on them. Small vegetables.

The stall owners did not shout to solicit customers, and all talked quietly in low voices. When they saw Xu Xiaoyu, a stranger, they all stopped and looked up at her. Their eyes were full of vigilance and fear, as if they were ready to run away from the stall at any time. On the way.

Xu Xiaoyu originally wanted to step forward and ask a few words, but seeing the defensive looks of several people, she had no choice but to look around, and finally found an aunt who looked younger.

After organizing his words, he stepped forward and hugged him with a smile.

"Auntie, are the vegetables on your stall the green vegetables? They look so fresh. Our little one loves vegetables. He begged me to come here, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to touch them... You... What’s the price of vegetables? Why don’t you give them all to me?”

Several stall owners looked at each other after hearing this, and it was the young aunt who replied.

"What can't be grown? These are the vegetables we grow ourselves and just dry them in the sun. I don't understand what you are talking about... You girl doesn't look like you are married and have a baby. ? I’m afraid you’re not bluffing us.”

After all, I still have to be wary...

Xu Xiaoyu changed her thoughts but her tone remained unchanged.

"What's so deceptive about this? I got married early, and my baby is three or four years old... You don't need to be on guard against me. I'm just here to exchange for some things to use back home, and I'm passing on the remaining pork in my hand. Now, what's going on?" It’s hot, and things will break easily if you drop them in your hands..."

Her voice was very low, but everyone could hear the word 'pork' clearly.

The young aunt's eyes suddenly lit up. Although she was still a little wary of this strangely dressed girl, her desire for meat was still greater than anything else. She was afraid that the other stall owners would get it first, so she quickly stood up and pulled Xu Xiaoyu over.

"Are you telling the truth? How much meat do you still have in your hand?"
