Chapter 17: Transactions (1)
Su Yi put the newly bought vest and pants in the temporary space, carrying dirty clothes in one hand and a knife in the other, and it was inconvenient to move. She spent two cents and temporarily stored the knife and dirty clothes in the bathhouse, and took the whip with herself, waiting to come back to get it when she went to the black market.
Well, after the transaction is over, I have to go to the county public security bureau to see if I can inquire about the progress of the case, and by the way, see if Xiao Gong'an is not there. If you are there, you have to ask him to help you find a place to live, so that you don't have to worry about the two masters. I owe him a favor, and I will find a chance to pay it back later.
When Xiao asked about knives and whips, she said she had bought them. In the future, she wants to carry the whip with her and use it for self-protection. She now has a physique, she doesn't have much strength, she can use dexterity to throw whips, she also knows some important acupuncture points in the human body, even if it is a vicious man like Luo Da, as long as she draws it correctly, she can put people down with at most two whips.
Su Yi used to do live broadcast tasks, and met a woman who played a particularly good whip, and specially learned how to whip people with whips, and she was half an expert in this regard. Moreover, the whip can be decorated when tied to the waist, and the clothes are now wide and wide, and the whip is tied to show the waist.
As for kitchen knives, they can be used to cut vegetables, kill chickens, slaughter fish, etc., and are very useful.
Before going to the black market, Su Yi went to the supply and marketing cooperatives to buy two large nylon pockets, spent four cents, and folded them in his pockets. She plans to go to the black market of the textile factory to ask about the prices today to see if there is any change. Inquire about the market, find a place where no one is around, put the things in the temporary space into a nylon pocket, and trade with people.
Su Yi asked the salesman in department stores and supply and marketing cooperatives what kind of bicycles, iron pots, electric fans, watches, etc., now require industrial coupons. If you don't need industrial vouchers, the price will be ridiculously expensive. Like the Phoenix brand bicycle, the original price was 180 yuan plus 50 industrial coupons. If there are no industrial vouchers, they will be sold for three or four hundred yuan.
Su Yi thought that he would have to go to work sooner or later, and it would be more convenient to have a bicycle when he went out. But the bicycle is too expensive, and she needs so many industrial vouchers, she can't afford it now. When I work in the future, I will slowly save money for industrial vouchers and strive to buy a ride at the end of the year.
Pots and pans, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, cotton cloth, cotton ...... Daily life is inseparable from these things, but Su Yi is in short supply of many things, and she only hopes that she can exchange them for what she needs on the black market.
Su Yi went around the black market, pretending to be a buyer, asked many people and the prices of many things, and basically knew the prices of various items. Only then did he avoid people, hid in the corner of the uninhabited workshop of the textile factory, and first got twenty catties of white rice from the temporary space and put it into a nylon bag.
She tied the whip to her waist, rolled up the bag again, pinched the mouth of the bag, carried the bag on her shoulder, bent down and slipped out of the workshop, squatted under a big tree on the side of the road, put the bag behind the wild grass, leaned against the tree, hugged her chest with both hands, and waited for the "fat sheep". She was standing on a slope where she could see buyers and sellers of makeshift transactions in the open space below.
In the past few days, the black dealers have also heard that the public security in the city and county have been dispatched collectively to crack a large-scale human trafficking case, and that no public security has come to the black market to arrest people.
In the past two days, the public security arrested Luo Da and interrogated him overnight, and began to search for and arrest Luo Da's accomplices everywhere in the county.
Now people in Songjiang County and even nearby towns who often enter the county basically know the news that "the traffickers have been arrested, and the rest of the accomplices are still being pursued."
Most of the people who often go to the black market to trade ask their relatives and friends to pay close attention to the actions of the Public Security Bureau, and they are naturally very well informed.
Su Yi came for about half an hour when he heard that there had been a recent surge in black market transactions.
In March, there was a shortage of grain, and many families in the city had many children, and they could not have enough to eat with just a little commercial grain supply, so they were in urgent need of grain.
However, the rural people only distributed the grain during the Chinese New Year, and those who had surplus grain in their hands lacked tickets and industrial vouchers, so they needed to trade with the people in the city to exchange some money, tickets, and coupons to buy cloth, farm tools, cauldrons, and other necessities. Some families have a large number of young and strong laborers, earn more centimeters, and naturally have more money and grain at the end of the year, and such rich households only exchange grain for industrial vouchers to buy bicycles.
Su Yi even overheard two middle-aged farmers chatting in private, knowing that they were trading on behalf of the production team. The two had already exchanged dozens of industrial vouchers on the black market before, and another thirty would be enough to buy a tractor. With a tractor, you can save a lot of effort during the autumn harvest. In the future, when you come to the county seat to catch the market, you can also take a tractor without walking. This is completely for the benefit of the entire production team. Or is their captain brainy, well-informed, and knows how to do business here.
Between the words, Su Yi could hear the respect and love of the two peasant brothers for their captain, and she also heard that the village was called Liu Ping Production Team, and the captain was named Liu Jianjun.
Although the Liu Ping production team is also in the mountains, it is at the foot of the mountains, and the village is on a plain, where the water and soil are fertile, the sunshine and rain are abundant, the crops are easy to feed, and the harvest is good every year. The village is backed by a mountain, and the team organizes young and middle-aged people to go hunting in the mountains every year, and half of the prey hunted is handed over to the state and half is distributed to the villagers.
This time they came to the black market to trade, and the two farmer brothers brought a lot of prey.
Su Yi had good eyesight, and saw that the two eldest brothers' back baskets were full of pheasants, hares, and even several wild boar! No wonder they said that half of the people in Liu Ping's production team had a good life, and it was no problem to eat and dress warmly. There are also a few two or three families who even bought bicycles.
What a village to look forward to!
If she could live in that village, wouldn't she be able to sneak into the mountains every day to hunt and eat meat every day? Thinking of this, Su Yi swallowed. Reason quickly sobered her up, she provoked Luo Da and the others, or don't go to the mountain village, otherwise she will not only affect the innocent but also harm herself. Following Xiao Gong'an, she has a greater sense of security.
Besides, most of her audience likes Xiao Gong'an. Some viewers edited out the videos and pictures of Xiao Gong'an separately, made a series of emojis and a collection of cool and handsome tough guy videos, advertised directly in her live broadcast room, posted the URL, and sold them on the star network, and actually sold a lot!
Many people who bought Xiao Gongan's emojis and video collection on Xingwang also specially entered her live broadcast room so that they could watch the real people licking the screen nearby.
Now in Su Yi's live broadcast room, more than half of the audience is swiping the screen with Xiao Gong'an's emojis, what: [Xiao Gong'an smiled gently at you], [Xiao Gong'an didn't want to pay attention to you], [Xiao Gong'an told you to shut up], [Xiao Gong'an looked at you coldly and didn't speak, are you afraid], [Xiao Gong'an doted and smiled and pulled your face, so handsome that it exploded], [Xiao Gong'an mocked face, it depends on how you make it up], [Xiao Gong'an stood quietly and didn't speak, and his uniform was so handsome that your legs were weak]......
