Now let’s talk about Lucy Liu again.

She walked to the entrance of the alley of the black market. There was a burly man at the entrance of the alley, with a strong back and broad waist, who seemed to be guarding the entrance of the black market like a door god.

When he saw Lucy Liu for the first time, he stared at her. He was just like that, stupid and dumb, and instantly turned into a fool. When Lucy Liu was about to walk into the black market, he seemed to realize something and ran over to block her way.

"Well, do you want to buy or sell?" the burly man asked, with a hint of tenderness in his tone.

"I want to buy something." Lucy Liu replied.

"Oh, you want to buy something? Then go in, and be careful."

The burly man scratched his head as he spoke.

Liu Yuling looked at the burly man in confusion. She felt that his behavior was very strange.

At this time, the burly man also realized that his behavior was a bit strange. He took a few steps back unconsciously and wanted to turn around and walk back to where he was standing originally. He only heard a "bang".

The burly man's head hit the electric pole next to the alley entrance. Suddenly, a big bump appeared on his forehead.

He looked at Lucy Liu again. He felt very embarrassed that Lucy Liu saw his action.

"Hahaha, hahaha."

Seeing how adorable this big, burly man looked, Lucy Liu couldn't help but burst out laughing.

She thought to herself: Tsk, tsk, tsk, I know it hurts from the sound. This big man should look fierce, but he behaves so cutely. Why is this contrast so funny?

Is my charm so great? Is my rate of returning so high? Oh, there is no way, even I like my image so much!

After Lucy Liu finished laughing, she turned around and walked into the black market, leaving the burly man still recalling Lucy Liu's smile, silently watching her disappear before his eyes.

The black market is not as noisy as the markets of the 21st century. Every corner of the black market is very quiet. Some people sit in the corner and expose part of the goods so that people can see what they are selling.

If someone wants to buy this thing, they will discuss it quietly in private, for they are afraid that if they speak louder, they will get into trouble.

Lucy Liu thought to herself: Damn, this isn't selling, this is buying! This is like stealing.

She walked up to an old lady selling grain and asked in a low voice: "Auntie, how much are you selling your grain for?"

“大米不要票1毛6一斤。白面不要票1毛3一斤。小米不要票1毛一斤。

Girl, the price I'm giving you is the lowest price on the black market. My child is sick, and if I wasn't in urgent need of money, I wouldn't be able to sell my grain for even a penny less than them." The old lady replied.

Alas! In this era, one cent can buy a lot of things. In the 21st century, if you drop a dime on the street, no one will necessarily bend down to pick it up.

"Okay, Auntie, I want whatever food you have." Liu Yuling said.

When the old lady heard this, a joyful smile appeared on her wrinkled face.

"Auntie, I have 50 kilograms of rice, 50 kilograms of flour and 30 kilograms of millet. I have already calculated at home. If I can sell them all, I can get 17.5 yuan." The old lady said happily.

"Auntie, I came here to buy food, but I forgot to bring the bag. Look at this cloth bag that holds the food, please sell it to me. I'll give you 1 yuan, and it will be 18 yuan. How about that?" Liu Yuling asked.

"Oh, that's great, but my cloth bag is not worth a dollar. Aren't you feeling a bit disadvantaged?" the old lady said honestly.

"It's not a loss. Besides, you need cloth coupons to buy cloth. You've reduced my price by one cent per pound of grain. I can't let you suffer too much, can I?"

As Liu Yuling spoke, she took out 19 yuan from her pocket, actually from the space, and handed it to the lady.

"My dear, I know from the first sight that you are not only beautiful, but also kind. Good people will be rewarded. My dear, you will definitely find a good family in the future."

The old lady said as she happily took the money. She spat on her old hand and counted the bills one by one.

"One dollar, two dollars, 19 dollars exactly. Wait a minute, I'll give you fifty cents."

The old lady took out a small cloth bag from her pocket. She opened the bag and found a lot of one-cent, two-cent, and five-cent coins in it. At the bottom were three ten-cent coins. They were neatly stacked in the bag.

The old lady counted out fifty cents from her bag and handed it to Lucy Liu, and then put Lucy Liu's 19 yuan back into her bag.

"Auntie, look at how much food there is. I can't carry it by myself. Please help me take it out of the black market and put it in an alley next to the black market. Someone will come to pick me up." Liu Yuling asked with embarrassment.

"Okay, it's no trouble. We country people don't have so many requirements." The old lady agreed readily.

The old lady tied 50 catties of rice and 30 catties of millet together with a rope and put them on her left shoulder. She held the 30 catties of millet in front with one hand and picked up the 50 catties of flour with the other hand. She walked out of the black market without blushing or panting.

At this moment, Lucy Liu was thinking in her heart: There is a saying that goes, your uncle is still your uncle.

But now I feel that it should be changed. Your aunt is still your aunt.
