Quickly wear and change the fate of the little cannon fodder
Chapter 54: Miss Cannon Fodder in the Period Literature 23
For this purpose, Yu Xiaoxiao even used her mental power to find the black market and learned about the current food prices. The price increase was really horrible. When she was stockpiling goods before, rice and flour were only 1.5 cents, and later even if the price increased, it was only 2.2 cents. Sweet potatoes were 3 cents a pound, and later increased to 5 cents.
But now the price of rice and flour has risen to two yuan, cornmeal has risen to one yuan, and even sweet potatoes have risen to sixty cents, and there is no stock to sell. In this era when the average worker only earns 21 yuan a month, it is really unaffordable. Even the price of food in the st century is not much more expensive than this.
Immediately, Yu Xiaoxiao entered the space and disguised herself as a dark-skinned rural woman. She found the black market boss and sold a batch of sweet potatoes, potatoes, and pumpkins at a price of one cent, and asked the black market boss to promise not to sell them for more than three cents.
A few days later, Yu Muzhuang came to Yu Xiaoxiao's house very happily and whispered to her that he had heard a piece of inside information that there were cheap coarse grains for sale on the black market, and he wanted to take Yu Xiaoxiao to buy some!
It was unknown how long this famine would last, so she felt more at ease if she had more food. Yu Xiaoxiao understood and went with her.
When we found the black market, we found that unlike before, there were many people there, and they were all in a hurry. But it was a strange phenomenon that there were so many people but it was surprisingly quiet, as if it was a silent movie.
Yu Muzhuang pulled her to the back of the line, as if he knew the rules here. Yu Xiaoxiao observed secretly and found something wrong. There were several people here who didn't seem to be here to buy food, but to observe the people who were buying food.
Yu Xiaoxiao was very familiar with this kind of gaze. She had encountered a similar situation two years ago. That time, they came to arrest her. Who was they here to arrest this time?
She secretly released her spiritual power, but could not find the reason. She thought about going out for another walk at night? It was a famine era, were those spies still so rampant?
She really hated these people, these spies, and was more interested in quietly destroying their actions. Now that her mental power was at the maximum level, she would be more adept at doing these things!
At night, she dressed up as a gangster and went to the alleys she used to walk through. But before she entered an alley, someone covered her mouth from behind and led her out of the alley!
Yu Xiaoxiao was shocked. She was too careless. She was about to raise her hand to fight back against the person who attacked her from behind! She only heard the person whisper in her ear, "Don't move, don't talk, follow me."
Yu Xiaoxiao's body stiffened. She knew this voice. The owner of this voice had caused her to be caught and almost died. Although it had been two years, she still remembered it vividly.
After Yu Xiaoxiao realized that this man was not a bad person, she stopped struggling and followed his force, moving away from this place. When she reached a place where they could talk normally, the man let her go.
"It's you, little girl!" Xing Jianjun stared at her.
Yu Xiaoxiao looked up in surprise. Was her outfit such a failure? She looked in the mirror for a long time without finding any flaws. Even if he knew she wasn't a real gangster, she didn't say anything. How did he recognize her as the little girl that night?
It was pitch black that night and her face was dirty. She had changed a lot in the past two years. She had grown taller and her voice was no longer childish!
"I feel like there's nothing wrong with your outfit. It's just my intuition that it's you!" Xing Jianjun seemed to see through her confusion.
"Let's not talk about anything else for now. Let's talk about what happened tonight. Were those people here to arrest you?" Since she had already been recognized, there was no need to pretend anymore, and Yu Xiaoxiao no longer worried about it.
"This is not a place to talk. Do you want to go to my place or yours? I have something to ask you." Xing Jianjun felt that it was time to know the answers to some questions!
"I don't want to know who they caught. Let's say goodbye now and never see each other again." Yu Xiaoxiao felt something was wrong and turned around and left. She had to escape quickly or something bad would happen.
"Do you know that you are in danger now? Patriot!" Xing Jianjun said slowly behind her!
"I don't know what you are talking about." Yu Xiaoxiao stopped and turned to look at him!
"No, you know." Xing Jianjun said with certainty. "Let's go to my place." Xing Jianjun didn't give her a chance to refuse, he just left and motioned for her to follow.
Xing Jianjun took her to a separate yard, which was much larger than hers, but the layout was very simple.
Xing Jianjun took her into a room that looked like a living room, and lit two lamps skillfully. He also poured her a cup of tea!
"Please sit down. We are friends who have been through thick and thin together, and you are also my savior. There's no need to be so nervous! After all, I still owe you a thank you." Xing Jianjun tried to break the dull atmosphere and spoke in a relaxed tone to let her let down her guard.
"How do you know I'm a patriot? Don't tell me about intuition!" Yu Xiaoxiao wanted to know how she was exposed.
"It's not difficult to check. Everything you do is not insignificant, and there are traces to follow. You don't really think that what you do is perfect, do you? You don't naively think that the people above can't find you, do you?"
Yu Xiaoxiao widened her eyes.
"The people above just don't want to investigate you. They may even clean up some mess for you. Because you haven't done anything harmful to the country and have done a lot of good things, they didn't investigate you. Do you want to know why?"
Yu Xiaoxiao shook her head.
"On the one hand, it is also to protect you, because they don't know whether the people around them are human or ghost. The more people know your identity, the more dangerous you are. After all, there are too many people who want you dead, because you have affected the interests of many people and blocked the enemy's path."
Yu Xiaoxiao suddenly looked up. "Is it because of the list you handed in?"
"Yes and no. The things you did before caused a lot of losses. They tried to catch you on a large scale before. But they stopped after seeing you and because they couldn't catch you because they didn't have enough information about you, they didn't continue until you handed in the list. Only then did they decide to kill you!"
"So those people came to arrest me today?" Did she have such great ability? She had some self-doubt.
"In fact, they have several people who have studied your behavior and some of your little tricks based on your actions. They have set up a trap for you for a while and are waiting to lure you into it."
"We also know all this. We know that you are very curious and will definitely show up. So we have been guarding here for a few days. We just want to intercept you before you are caught by them." Xing Jianjun said this and stopped talking, leaving her some time to digest it herself.
Yu Xiaoxiao was immediately shocked and broke out in a cold sweat. She was indeed too young. She relied on some means to do whatever she wanted, arrogant and self-righteous, thinking that no one could catch her or find her, and she was secretly proud of herself!
Unexpectedly, everything she did and every move were flaws in the eyes of others, and they had already found a trap to deal with her!
