Chapter 68

These days, there is a shortage of materials, private transactions are prohibited, and the mobility of materials is very poor. The people in the countryside grow their own food, while the people in the city have the food distributed by the state. If you want to buy it yourself, you need food stamps.

Many people don't have enough food, and if they want to survive, they can only go to the black market to buy high-priced food.

Food at this time is especially valuable.

There are several black markets in the county seat, Gu Qingyao knows.

She came to a black market with a basket on her back. This is a relatively open place, mainly because... it is easier to escape, and the vision is broad, clear at a glance.

Gu Qingyao walked into the crowd with a basket on his back, and started looking for a target.

Most of the people here want to buy food. Otherwise, who will go to the black market? As soon as Gu Qingyao appeared with a basket on his back, someone looked over.

There is a heavy bag in her back, and there is something at first glance.

Gu Qingyao looked at it for a while, and saw an old lady who was slightly more decent, and there was a young man standing beside her, who looked like her son.

Gu Qingyao's eyes moved, and slowly came to her, pressing her throat, trying to learn from her older voice, "Sister, do you want food?"

The old lady was a little nervous, "Are there any fine grains?"

Gu Qingyao said: "Yes, there are some meat and eggs."

The eyes of the old lady and her son suddenly lit up, "I want what I want, and I want as much as you have. The eldest girl, you must not sell it to others. We find a separate place, and I want it, my daughter-in-law. In confinement, these are urgently needed."

Gu Qingyao nodded, "Go to those alleys ahead! There is no one in all directions, you go first, I'll be there later."

The old lady nodded quickly, "Good, good! Don't sell it to others, big girl! I want it!"

"Okay, don't worry, sister!"

Called a big sister by an old lady, Gu Qingyao couldn't do it, but she didn't show it and still called her big sister.

The two left. Gu Qingyao went around in the black market and saw a young man in his 30s. Gu Qingyao had seen this man in his previous life. He often appeared on the black market and did the same job as Chen Jin.

Gu Qingyao walked up to him and whispered: "Do you want fine grains? Do you want bacon?"

The man had come to see Gu Qingyao's eyesight and was a little precautionary, but when he heard this, his eyes suddenly brightened.

This is a good thing. What he needs most is the scarce items such as fine grains and meat, especially towards the end of the year.

"Yes, let's change place."

Gu Qingyao followed him to a big tree, and the man said enthusiastically, "Sister, how many do you have?"

Gu Qingyao looked around and replied, "Ten catties of white flour, six catties of rice, three catties of bacon, and... there are more than 20 eggs and a few apples, do you want?"

The man was so excited, he didn't expect it! Encountered someone so capable.

"If you want it, I want it all!"

Gu Qingyao said: "Then according to the rules, all are fine grain prices, five yuan a catty, I only need money, no tickets."

The man is very happy and doesn't even need a ticket. This is easy to handle.

"can."

So Gu Qingyao took out the things, and the man carried a small scale with him. After weighing it, the eggs and apples totaled 6 catties, plus the grain and bacon, for a total of 25 catties, for a total of 125 yuan.

After receiving the money, Gu Qingyao handed the things to him. The man took the things happily, and said to Gu Qingyao with a smile: "Sister, remember me if you have something good in the future! I'm here often."

Gu Qingyao nodded and turned to leave.
