In this era, there was a shortage of resources. Private transactions were prohibited, and the flow of resources was very poor. The villagers grew their own food, but the people in the city had to buy their own food from the government. They needed food stamps.
Many people did not have enough food to eat. If they wanted to survive, they could only go to the black market to buy high-priced food.
At this time, food was especially valuable.
Gu Qingyao knew that there were a few black markets in the county town.
She carried the basket to one of the black markets. It was a more open area. Mainly … it was easier to escape. The view was wide and clear.
Gu Qingyao carried the basket and walked into the crowd to look for her target.
Most of the people here wanted to buy food. Otherwise, who would go to the black market? When Gu Qingyao appeared with a basket on her back, some people looked over.
Her basket was heavy. It was obvious that there was something in it.
Gu Qingyao looked for a while and saw an old lady who was dressed decently. There was a young man standing beside her. From the looks of it, he should be her son.
Gu Qingyao's eyes moved. She slowly walked up to the old lady. She lowered her voice and tried to sound like an old lady. "Big Sister, do you want food?"
The old lady was a little nervous. "Do you have fine grain?"
Gu Qingyao said, "Yes, and some meat and eggs."
The old lady and her son's eyes lit up. "I want it, I want it. I want as much as you have. Big Sister, please don't sell it to others. Let's find another place. I want it all. My daughter-in-law is in confinement and needs it urgently."
Gu Qingyao nodded. "Let's go to the alleys in front! It's convenient and there's no one there. You go first. I'll be there in a while. "
The old lady quickly nodded. "Okay, okay, okay! Big Sister, please don't sell it to others! I want it all! "
"Okay, Big Sister, don't worry!"
Gu Qingyao was embarrassed to be called Big Sister by an old lady. However, she did not show it and continued to call her Big Sister.
After they left, Gu Qingyao walked around the black market and saw a young man in his thirties. Gu Qingyao had seen him before in her previous life. He often appeared in the black market and did the same job as Chen Jin.
Gu Qingyao walked in front of him and whispered, "Do you want fine grain? Do you want some bacon? "
The man didn't recognize Gu Qingyao at first, but his eyes lit up when he heard that.
This was good stuff. What he needed the most were rare items like fine grains and meat, especially when it was almost the end of the year.
"Yes, let's go somewhere else."
Gu Qingyao followed him to a big tree. The man asked enthusiastically, "How many do you have, Big Sister?"
Gu Qingyao looked around and replied, "Ten kilograms of fine white flour, six kilograms of rice, three kilograms of bacon, and … there are also twenty eggs and a few apples. Do you want them?"
The man was extremely excited. He hadn't expected this! To think that he would meet such a capable person.
"Yes, yes, yes. I want all of them!"
Gu Qingyao said, "Then we'll follow the rules. All of them are fine grain. Five yuan per kilogram. I only want money, not a ticket."
The man was very happy. She didn't even want a ticket. This was easy.
"Okay."
Thus, Gu Qingyao took out the items. The man carried a small scale with him. After weighing, the eggs and apples totaled six kilograms. Together with the grain and bacon, it totaled twenty-five kilograms. The total was a hundred and twenty-five yuan.
After receiving the money, Gu Qingyao handed the items to him. The man happily took the items and smiled at Gu Qingyao. "Big Sister, remember me if you have good things in the future! I'll be here often. "
