After leaving the supply and marketing cooperative, Qin Xiaoxiao stood on the street looking at the passers-by, wondering if he should go to the black market?
She doesn't want to go.
The black market is too dangerous. If you don't do it well, you will be caught.
After finally being reborn, she just wanted to live a good life and didn't want to do anything risky.
She was not short of money or things, she just regretted that there was no reasonable reason for her to use them.
“This black market is a must-visit!”
Qin Xiaoxiao squatted on the ground listlessly, rubbing his hands on his face to wake himself up.
Without tickets, she couldn't buy cotton, so she couldn't make cotton-padded clothes. As a result, she had no replacement of cotton-padded clothes, which she had to wear all winter long.
There was no need to think about what it would be like to wear a cotton coat all winter, Qin Xiaoxiao was already feeling sick.
No matter how miserable the apocalypse was, she had no clothes to wear for several months. Unexpectedly, in peaceful times, her life would be worse than the apocalypse.
Qin Xiaoxiao sighed, stood up, checked the direction, and walked south along the road.
She remembered that Sun Zhirou had said to her that there were three black markets in Hong County, one of which was in Huzhen, which was also the closest to Qinjiagou. However, this black market did not sell many types, and scarce products like cotton were even rarer, so Qin Tiny was the first to rule it out.
One of the other two was the one she went to when she followed Miao Feifei. There was no need to think about that one. It was too dark, and it was common for those who had good things in their hands to sell them there.
The remaining one is also the largest black market in Hong County. It has a strong background and is rarely checked. It is safe enough. Moreover, the boss of this black market seems to be pretty good. The prices are fair and the black market management is strict. No one is allowed to cause trouble, and there are no gangsters. Phenomenon.
Qin Xiaoxiao felt that if she had to go to the black market, this black market in the south would be her best choice.
As written, Qin Xiaoxiao first found a dead end, put on old-age makeup on himself while no one was around, then wrapped his whole face with a scarf, and put on a patched-up tattered t-shirt. The flowered jacket came out of the space carrying a vegetable basket.
According to the place Sun Zhirou said, Qin Xiaoxiao went over and found the old locust tree in an alley extending in all directions. He walked three houses further and knocked on the door of one house.
"For what?"
Qin Xiaoxiao lowered his voice and whispered: "The old Hu family asked me to deliver some things."
The uncle who opened the door squinted and looked at Qin Xiaoxiao carefully, opened the door and let Qin Xiaoxiao in.
After entering the door, the uncle stretched out his hand and said, "Two cents."
Qin Xiaoxiao didn't waste any words, took out two cents and stuffed it into the uncle's hand.
The uncle stepped aside and Qin Xiaoxiao walked inside.
When he walked into the backyard, Qin Xiaoxiao discovered that this family had connected the two houses on both sides and behind, forming a huge courtyard in the backyard. There were nearly a hundred people in the yard, but all these people said nothing. No matter whether you are buying or selling, the transaction is carried out silently.
Qin Xiaoxiao found it very novel and walked around the yard twice, learning to buy things while squatting on the ground to look at the goods.
The seller didn't say anything. When someone came to look at the goods, he stretched out his hand and gestured and gave a number. If the buyer felt it was inappropriate and wanted to counter-offer, he just gestured with his hand to counter-offer. The price was negotiated. Once both parties are satisfied, the transaction can be completed.
This is not the same as what is written in the book, but Qin Xiaoxiao thinks it is very good. It is so quiet. As long as no one makes trouble or reports, it is safe here.
Qin Xiaoxiao didn't dare to waste time and walked towards the stall he had just spotted, which was the only one selling cotton in the black market.
Qin Xiaoxiao squatted on the ground to look at the quality of the cotton. The seller compared the numbers. Qin Xiaoxiao thought for a while and then compared the numbers. The seller hesitated at first, then nodded in agreement.
Qin Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up, and he happily bought all the cotton.
The seller was delighted when he saw Qin Xiaoxiao being so straightforward, and quickly helped Qin Xiaoxiao wrap up all the cotton.
After the transaction was completed, the seller packed up his stall and quickly left the black market.
Qin Xiaoxiao walked around again and bought twenty eggs and some rice before sneaking out of the black market.
After leaving the black market, Qin Xiaoxiao didn't dare to stop for a moment and went straight to the dead end.
The moment he turned into a dead end, Qin Xiaoxiao disappeared into the alley while there was no one around.
After taking off his makeup, changing his clothes, and adding ten pounds of rice and ten eggs from the space, Qin Xiaoxiao carefully left the space again, hid in the alley and waited for a while, but found no one following him, and then walked back.
After arriving home smoothly, Qin Xiaoxiao put the eggs and rice in the kitchen cabinet, bundled the ten pounds of cotton he bought with a piece of red floral cotton and a piece of black cotton, and carried it to Qin's house.
When he arrived at Qin's house, Qin Xiaoxiao went straight to Ma Dahua's house.
"Auntie, I bought some cotton and want to make another cotton jacket and cotton trousers. Please help me."
Ma Dahua was sewing clothes for Qin Feng in the room. When she heard the noise, she quickly put down her sewing and looked up at the door.
"Come in, it's cold outside."
Qin Xiaoxiao closed the door, put the cotton and cloth on the kang, took off his shoes and got on the kang.
The kang was burning hot, and Qin Xiaoxiao's feet were so cold that he could just cover them.
Ma Dahua took out another cotton quilt from the Kangqin and covered Qin Xiaoxiao's legs, then looked at the cotton on the Kang.
"Where did you buy cotton? Do you have cotton coupons?"
Qin Xiaoxiao smiled thoughtfully and said softly: "Where do I have cotton coupons? I got them from the black market. Auntie, my grandma won't let me go to the black market. Don't tell my grandma about this." , my grandma asked, I just said I got the ticket from the second aunt, don’t let it slip.”
Ma Dahua raised her head and looked at Qin Xiaoxiao, "How dare you go to that place if you are going to die?"
After glaring at Qin Xiaoxiao, Ma Dahua opened the window and looked outside. Seeing that there was no one in the yard, she closed the window again.
"You're so brave, can you go to that black market place? Wait until your uncle comes back and see if I don't complain to him."
Qin Xiaoxiao hugged Ma Dahua's arm and said coquettishly: "No, aunt, I won't dare next time, just this time.
If I hadn't been wearing cotton clothes, I wouldn't have risked going to the black market.
But don't worry, I covered my whole head when I went in. I'm sure no one will know me and I won't cause trouble to the family. "
Ma Dahua became even more angry, "Am I afraid of trouble? I'm worried about you."
Qin Xiaoxiao nodded quickly, "I know, I know, I'm not afraid of injuring my family.
Auntie, I promise I won’t go there again, so don’t tell me. "
She is not afraid that her uncle will know, she is afraid that it is her uncle who tells her uncle everything. Telling him is equivalent to telling her uncle, and she cannot bear his stick.
Ma Dahua dotes on Qin Xiaoxiao, but she is unambiguous about major issues.
"There's no need to discuss it. I can hide other things from you, but not this matter."
Qin Xiaoxiao was unwilling to give in and begged for a long time, but Ma Dahua accepted death and felt that it was too dangerous for Qin Xiaoxiao to do this, and she must be taught a lesson to prevent her from daring to go next time.
