Chapter 339, Stamps
The night was already deep.
It had only been half past twelve when there was a soft knock on his windowsill.
Hearing this voice, Jiang Yan quickly got dressed and pushed them away very lightly.
In the courtyard, the sixth son and Xu Damao were standing quietly at Jiang Yan's door, and when they saw Jiang Yan coming out, they hurriedly stepped forward.
However, when Jiang Yan saw the clothes of the two people through the moonlight, he couldn't help laughing.
Not only were the two men fully armed, but they also wore something similar to a hood on their heads, with only their mouths and eyes leaking out.
However, Jiang Yan is also dressed like this, so they don't laugh at the second brother.
"It's all set!" Jiang Yan asked lightly.
Hearing Jiang Yan's question, Xu Damao hurriedly opened his mouth.
"The boss is ready, a total of 100 catties of stick noodles and white flour rice, 5 catties of a small bag, and 20 catties of bacon, all of which are placed at the gate, and the bicycle is also ready."
"Then let's go!" After Jiang Yan said something, he walked towards the gate.
Jiang Yan thought that what they did was very mysterious, but they didn't know that all this was seen by the old lady in the house through the window, and then the moonlight.
The old man was originally sleeping shallowly, and he would wake up as soon as there was movement, and he also heard the sound of Jiang Yan's door frame.
Seeing the three of them dressed in the courtyard, the old lady knew that the three of them were going to the black market, and she couldn't help but worry about Jiang Yan in her heart.
Thinking that although Jiang Yan was going for the first time, Xu Damao and Liuzi had not gone less, and they were familiar with the road, the old lady's heart was relieved.
The black market in Sijiu City is also called the ghost market, the reason why it is so called is estimated to have something to do with the time it opened, the black market is generally one o'clock in the morning before someone comes out, and when it is dawn, it leaves directly, there is no fixed location, and those who know where they sell are the old people inside, and there are no familiar people to bring, you may not be able to find a place.
In fact, the black market was passed down from the time of the old society. In ancient times, there would be two types of people who would secretly sell some rare things. One is the second ancestor who is so poor that his family is poor, but there are also some ancestral treasures that can be exchanged for this kind of thing, but this kind of person is a loser, and the children of rich families all want to save face.
In order not to let others see that they are so poor, they will set up stalls in dark corners early; There is also a group of people, the tomb robbers, who do not sell stolen goods during the day, but take advantage of the darkness to sell them. Everyone knows that there are such gathering places in certain areas, and gradually it becomes a black market.
Although the black market is lively, because of the things, people who come here must follow the rule of "three don't ask": don't ask whether it's true or false, don't ask about the origin, don't ask about quality.
Galloping all the way, the three of them soon came to a place.
"Boss, wait a minute, I'll go to the front and have a look, if you don't come back in two minutes, you can put down your things and leave." After stopping the bicycle, Liuzi instructed Jiang Yan and them, and he removed the bicycle and walked forward.
After less than a minute, Rokuko brought someone back.
When I walked into Jiang Yan, I found that the person brought over by Liuzi was the dog baby who had eaten with Jiang Yan before.
Because of Jiang Yan's good disguise, he hadn't seen him for so many years, and this dog baby obviously didn't recognize Jiang Yan.
"Brother Liuzi, is he?" The dog baby pointed at Jiang Yan and asked.
"A friend, come and see him, leave him alone."
Liuzi said lightly.
Jiang Yan was not recognized, and Liuzi breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
To be honest, he already regretted bringing Jiang Yan to this black market today.
Their boss is not the same as their identity, and it is a big deal to be punished if they are recognized, and the boss cannot be recognized, to be precise, their boss cannot have shortcomings.
How did they know that after they came out, there was a tail behind them, and the people who came over were the ones who came to protect Jiang Yan, and when they saw Jiang Yan enter the black market, he also entered it through his relationship.
As for whether Jiang Yan came to the black market or not, it didn't matter to them, Jiang Yan didn't betray the country, there was no danger, and other things were not out of his mind, and there was no need to report this trivial matter of coming to the black market.
"I've got everything." Jiang Yan accompanied the six sons to a room, and the six sons asked first.
"I brought it, I've seen it all, it's all top-notch goods, these old and young, there are still a lot of good things in their hands."
"That's it, the grain is here, you take a look, and then we will trade, they will be gone, you can just bring the things, I will take my friends out for a walk."
"That's it, Brother Liuzi, you take your friends around, I'm here, and I can take it whenever I turn around."
After they had laid down the food, they went out of the house under the leadership of the six sons.
"Boss, don't make a noise when you see something you want, just touch me." After going out, Liuzi lowered his voice and said to Jiang Yan.
Jiang Yan knew that the sixth son was for his good, and he was afraid that someone here would hear his voice and recognize him.
So Jiang Yan nodded, indicating that he understood.
The black market is in a small alley, and there are two people guarding the entrance of the alley, and after paying a dime for one person for two days, they also enter this so-called black market.
It may be that Jiang Yan and they came earlier, and there are not many people buying in this black market, because it is a black market, there is only one bean-sized lamp in front of each stall.
Jiang Yan counted with his heart, and there were only twenty or thirty of them, only a few stalls where people were squatting and looking at things.
Liuzi took Jiang Yan to look at one stall after another, and after seeing so many stalls, there is nothing that Jiang Yan can look at, this is not a bad thing, the key is that Jiang Yan and the three of them don't know anything about antiques!
Somewhere in a stall, Jiang Yan saw some philatelic albums, as well as some snuff bottles, gourds and other small things, which made Jiang Yan interested, so he squatted down and flipped through the philatelic albums.
Seeing the stamps in the booklet, Jiang Yan's eyes widened involuntarily.
In the last era, a friend of Jiang Yan liked stamp collecting, and Jiang Yan also knew a lot under the whispering of his eyes.
There is not only a complete set of dragon stamps, but also some stamps of the Qing Dynasty and the national government, there are five blue army stamps, more than a dozen yellow army stamps and green army stamps, and even three sets
Stamps commemorating the 35th anniversary of the October Revolution in the Soviet Union and stamps of the 5th World Student Congress.
There are so many stamps in this little album that I would be sorry if I didn't take them down.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yan lightly touched Liuzi with his hand and gestured to this stamp album with his eyes.
Liuzi, who was looking at the snuffbox, quickly put down the snuffbox and picked up the stamp album from Jiang Yan's hand.
However, these six sons didn't see it for a long time and knew why they came, but since their boss likes it, they just sell it.
But they don't understand the hobbies of these intellectuals, and they don't understand that coming to the black market is not to buy antiques, and to see what the boss is buying.
