In the 1960s, a woman dressed as a man and a general came to give birth to a baby

In mid-August, Zhang Yu decided to go to the black market again, because the grain situation in the supply and marketing cooperative has not been optimistic. Apart from the 8 kilograms of wheat he purchased last time, there was also the grain allocated by the state, but the amount was getting smaller and smaller.

This time, Zhang Yu sent a telegram directly to Zhang Xiaoli at the black market state-owned hotel: 819 arrived, as usual.

After setting the date, arranging things at home, and bidding farewell to Ma Luoying, Zhang Yu boarded a train directly to the black market.

During this trip, Zhang Yu sat with a young man who had a worried look on his face. During the conversation, Zhang Yu discovered that he was Han Yang, a purchaser from Qing City. This time he also went to the black market to purchase food.

This person is very similar to Liu Wei. He has not purchased any food for several months. He is a temporary worker. He told Zhang Yu that if he fails to purchase food this time, he will be fired. So when he knew that Zhang Yu was the director of the purchasing department and was also going to the black market to purchase food, he asked Zhang Yu for help.

Considering that he would go to Qing City later, it would be much more convenient if he had someone like this to show him the way, so Zhang Yu did not directly reject his request for help. He only said that he would wait and see the situation after he got there, and asked him to wait for his news.

Two days later, they arrived at the black market. Although they took the same bus, Han Yang did not stay in the same hotel as Zhang Yu, because he stayed at a friend's house in the black market to save money.

Zhang Yu was still living in the state-owned hotel where Zhang Xiaoli worked. As soon as Zhang Yu showed up, Zhang Xiaoli enthusiastically talked to him about food, and asked with a pleading look on her face if she could buy more this time, because the food in several villages near Wangjia Village was not enough, and they all wanted to exchange the fine grains they had stored for coarse grains.

When Zhang Yu heard this, he thought it was no problem, as he had plenty of sweet potatoes and sweet potato vines in his space anyway.

But for the sake of future transactions, he thought for a moment before saying to Zhang Xiaoli, "Okay, can you please notify Captain Zhang and the others to come to the state-owned hotel to discuss the details of the exchange?" After responding, Zhang Xiaoli quickly notified Captain Zhang and the others.

Not long after Zhang Yu finished speaking, Zhang Xiaoli's father and second uncle rushed to the state-owned hotel with five or six people.

Zhang Yu became unhappy when he saw this. Although he didn't care about the food, he really didn't like being forced to abdicate like this.

Upon seeing this, Uncle Zhang hurriedly explained that it was not them who brought the others here. These people had been waiting at the entrance of the state-owned hotel, and they followed the two brothers in after seeing them come in.

Although Uncle Zhang tried his best to cover it up, Zhang Yu still saw it. If no one informed them, how did these people know about it? But Zhang Yu also knew that these people were not all for him, but for the village, so Zhang Yu decided to play dumb this time.

Finally, they agreed on the amount of grain to be exchanged this time, and the exchange would still be carried out according to the old rules, but the fine grain he wanted would be shipped in two batches this time, because part of it was for Gao Yang.

After he had made an agreement with Captain Zhang and others on the grain to be purchased, he contacted Han Yang and asked, "Han Yang, how much grain do you need to purchase this time?

Han Yang was very happy to hear that Zhang Yu wanted to help him, but he still asked carefully: "Brother Zhang, at least 1000 kilograms, okay?" Is this the minimum number that can keep his job?

Zhang Yu pondered for a while and said, "Okay, then I will give you 1000 kilograms of food from the food that Captain Zhang and I agreed on."

Hearing that Zhang Yu was going to give him 1000 kilograms, Han Yang said that Zhang Yu would be his reincarnated parents from now on, and when Zhang Yu arrived in Qing City, he could just look for him.

In response to this, Zhang Yu directly stated that after purchasing in the black market, he would go to Qing City to purchase another batch of supplies, so there was no need to wait until later, just leave a guide for himself this time.

After returning to Qing City, Han Yang suggested that Zhang Yu live in his house, but Zhang Yu knew that housing was tight nowadays, and living in someone else's house meant sharing a bed with others, which he didn't want to do. So Zhang Yu refused and lived in the state-owned hotel closest to the train station.

At this time, the roads in Qing City were different from what Zhang Yu had imagined. Even with a compass and a map, Zhang Yu still had a hard time finding the way. At this time, Zhang Yu couldn't help but sigh at his foresight.

On the second day after arriving in Qing City, Han Yang knew that Zhang Yu was going to a small fishing village to purchase seafood. In order to express his gratitude to Zhang Yu, he took a day off and took Zhang Yu to the village where his grandmother lived - Xiaohetan Village.

Xiaohetan Village is right on the sea. People cannot grow crops there and can only make a living by fishing. So as soon as you enter the village, you will see fishing nets drying in every household, as well as various seafood and seaweed, including kelp, seaweed, swimming crabs, dried shrimps, dried scallops, salted fish and so on.

Zhang Yu looked at these rare seafood in Gongshan Town and felt his mouth water. For the first time, Zhang Yu complained about the speed of his space flow. If this was a static space, wouldn't he be able to put all these things in and eat them slowly?

But there was no other way. With the reality being what it was, he could only stock up on some dried goods and preserved foods. So Zhang Yu asked Han Yang to take him to see the village leader.

The team leader of this village is surnamed Yang. It can be said that 90% of the people in this village have the surname Yang. When he heard that Zhang Yu wanted to purchase seafood, the team leader's expression was a little strange.

Seeing this, Zhang Yu asked in confusion: "Captain, what's wrong? Is there any problem with my purchasing these things?"

At this time, the captain spoke up and said, "The things you want to purchase are actually the food rations for our village. If you want to purchase them, you must exchange them for food. If it's industrial products or something like that, we won't exchange them."

Zhang Yu heard that he just had a lot of food, so he said: "Captain Yang, I am exchanging food. But I want a lot, I hope Captain Yang can help me when the time comes. Also, the more work I want, the better."

When Captain Yang heard that he wanted a large quantity and wanted to trade it all in grain, he was very happy. He told Zhang Yu that he would go and tell every household about this matter and ask them to bring samples to Zhang Yu for selection tomorrow morning.

Realizing that he would have to stay here for the night, Zhang Yu asked, "Captain Yang, is there a state-owned hotel nearby?"

Zhang Yu's idea of ​​staying in a state-owned hotel made Captain Yang feel troubled, as there was no state-owned hotel near their small fishing village.

Han Yang, who was traveling with him, knew that Zhang Yu was going to make a fool of himself when he heard what he said, so he quickly said, "Comrade Zhang Yu, you can live at my grandmother's house. Several of my uncles and cousins ​​have gone out to sea, and there are more spacious rooms at home. You can have one for yourself."

When he heard that he could live in his own room, Zhang Yu stopped hesitating and happily agreed.

That afternoon, because their unit only had one day off a month, Han Yang had to return to Qing City today. Before leaving, he asked his grandparents to take care of Zhang Yu.

For dinner, we had stewed fish. It was the first time for us to have it. It was fresh and not salty. It was very delicious. Zhang Yu ate so much that his belly was full.

Eating too much caused Zhang Yu to go to bed very late. Just when Zhang Yu was about to fall asleep, he heard a cry for help from next door.
