With Pinxixi in hand, I have a supermarket in the Changzheng!

Chapter 396 It’s been a long time since I went to the market!

As he said that, he quickly picked up the bowl beside him, took a big sip of soup, and then managed to wash down the piece of meat.

Zhou Yue couldn't help laughing as she watched her brother in such a miserable state.

She also curiously picked up a small piece of red dog meat with a chopstick, put it in her mouth and took a bite.

As he bit it, his brows furrowed.

To be honest, it tastes pretty much the same as the leopard meat I bought from the market last time.

The meat is firm and tough, chewing it takes a lot of effort, and it doesn't have that particularly tempting meaty aroma. The taste is really just average.

Uncle Dong looked at their reactions, put down his bowl and chopsticks, and spoke to them with a smile.

"This red dog meat is like this, much worse than other game! But don't underestimate it, this meat is good for you, it can replenish your body's deficiencies and increase your strength!"

After hearing this, Zhou Xing looked at Uncle Dong with some suspicion and asked.

"Is it really that magical? How can this meat, which tastes so bad, nourish the body?"

Uncle Dong smiled and nodded, saying.

"You don't know this, but this red dog meat is actually a kind of Chinese medicinal material. Although it tastes ordinary, it can replenish the body's deficiencies!"

When they were about to leave the table after finishing their meal, Zhou Yue put down her bowl and chopsticks and asked Uncle Dong.

"Uncle Dong, when will you go to town to sell wild boar meat tomorrow?"

When Uncle Dong heard the question, he raised his head slightly and thought about it.

"If we want to catch the early market, we have to set out before dawn tomorrow!"

When Zhou Yue heard the word "early market", the bustling scene of the market emerged in her mind, which immediately made her feel itchy.

She pursed her lips and smiled, asking with anticipation on her face.

"Uncle Dong, can I go with you? I haven't been to the market for a long time."

Uncle Dong looked at Zhou Yue's expectant expression and a kind smile appeared on his face.

"Of course, let's go together tomorrow morning!"

Zhou Xing, who was standing by, couldn't sit still when he heard that his sister was going to the market.

He ran to Uncle Dong and asked eagerly.

"Uncle Dong, can I go with you?"

Uncle Dong looked at Zhou Xing, touched his head with a smile, and nodded in agreement.

"Okay! Let's all go!"

The next day, Zhou Yue woke up at dawn.

She rubbed her eyes, estimated that it should be four or five in the morning, and jumped up.

After a simple wash, she came to the yard and saw Uncle Dong had borrowed an ox cart and was lifting the big fat pig onto the cart with Dong Sheng.

"Girl Yue is up, let's get ready to go!"

Uncle Dong greeted them while wiping his sweat.

In addition to the ox cart carrying the wild boar, another ox cart was specially borrowed.

Zhou Yue, Zhou Xing and Sister Chunyan all got on the ox cart, while Sister Chunxia stayed at home to take care of the wounded.

The ox cart started slowly. Zhou Yue sat on the cart, holding the edge of the cart with both hands. Her body swayed slightly with the shaking of the ox cart.

Despite the bumpy ride, she was in a particularly good mood and kept looking at the scenery along the way.

After more than an hour, the ox cart finally arrived at the largest market in the town.

At this time, the sky was slightly bright, and the faint light of morning light sprinkled on every corner of the market.

The market is already bustling with people. The vendors are busy manipulating their goods. The sounds of shouting and chatting are intertwined, making it very lively.

"We're here, get off."

Uncle Dong shouted and stopped the ox cart.

Uncle Dong and Dong Sheng walked around the market, their eyes constantly searching for a suitable open space.

Finally, they found a vacant stall in a place with a lot of people.

"Come on, Xiaosheng, give me a hand and carry this wild boar down."

Uncle Dong and his son lifted the fat wild boar from the cart and placed it steadily in the middle of the stall.

Then, Uncle Dong turned around and picked up a few bamboo baskets from the car, which contained some game that had not been eaten yesterday.

They were placed one by one on the stall, and their positions were adjusted from time to time to make the game look more tempting.

Zhou Yue, Zhou Xing and Sister Chunyan also helped Uncle Dong to run the stall.

After finishing, Uncle Dong greeted them with a kind smile on his face.

"Xiaosheng and I will be here at the stall, you guys can go shopping in this market, it's not easy to come here!"

A big smile broke out on Zhou Yue's face. Uncle Dong was really thoughtful and thought of everything for them.

"Okay, let's go for a walk first and come find you later!"

Sister Chunyan held Zhou Yue's arm and strolled slowly in the market.

Sister Chunyan walked while looking around, her eyes full of emotion.

"When the enemy was here half a year ago, this market was so deserted! I didn't expect it to be so lively again. It's great!"

Zhou Yue was already dazzled by the various stalls in the market.

She looked around curiously, with a gleam of novelty in her eyes.

Although in this difficult era, materials were far less abundant and diverse than in later generations.

But in this small market, there are really many kinds of things sold.

There are quite a few stalls selling game, but most of them are smaller prey such as pheasants and rabbits.

She took a quick look and found that there were only three or four stalls in the market selling wild boars as big as these.

Going further, there are stalls selling their own fruits and vegetables, as well as wild vegetables dug from the mountains.

Since it rained a few times before, the weather is not so dry anymore. The vegetables we planted can survive successfully, and there is hope for everyone's life.

As she walked, Zhou Yue's eyes were suddenly attracted and fell on an inconspicuous stall.

The stall was squeezed into a corner, and the owner was an aunt with a simple face and wearing coarse cloth clothes.

Her stall was not as rich and varied as the others, only one kind of thing was on display.

Zhou Yue walked closer involuntarily and slowly squatted in front of the stall.

His eyes were fixed on the things in the bamboo basket, his mind full of doubts.

After Zhou Yue approached, she squatted in front of the stall, her mind full of doubts.

If you see this thing in a modern market, it is very normal.

But this was in the 30s, how could such a thing exist?

There are two large bamboo baskets on this stall, filled with small blue fruits.

The fruit is round and about the size of a fingernail.

Zhou Yue only took a glance and recognized it with absolute certainty. This thing was clearly blueberry!

Her brows furrowed unconsciously, and she kept thinking in her mind.

She clearly remembered that blueberry was introduced to China quite late.

It seems that it was introduced from abroad for cultivation in the 80s.

"What is going on?" Zhou Yue couldn't help but mutter to herself.

It's the 30s, how come there are blueberries on the market?

Is it possible that time and space are disordered?

Zhou Yue raised her head and looked at the stall owner, with a look of confusion and curiosity on her face.

"Auntie, what kind of fruit are you selling?"

My aunt raised her head, with a simple smile on her face, and spoke in a thick local accent.

"Girl, this is the wild fruit we picked in the back mountain. It's called Dushi. We just picked it in the mountain yesterday afternoon. It's so fresh!"

As he said this, he grabbed a few and handed them to Zhou Yue.

"Girl, how about you try this?"

Zhou Yue put the fruit into her mouth and bit it lightly. The sweet and sour juice instantly spread in her mouth. The familiar taste made her eyes light up.
