After my stepmother was shot, I took my brothers to the countryside

Shen Nian heard that Heizi wanted her goods, so she was secretly on guard and looked at him vigilantly. Heizi saw Shen Nian's expression and understood what she was thinking.

"Big sister! I don't mean anything else. I just thought if you still have this kind of stuff, you could sell it to me. I won't let you suffer a loss, so let's stick to today's price!"

Shen Nian's heart moved. She didn't expect that this man actually wanted to cooperate with her for a long time. This was undoubtedly good news for her.

She no longer needs to take risks in the black market and can even make extra money. However, she cannot trust this man easily.

"Brother, I won't hide it from you. I do have some of this stuff, but not much. Besides, I can't guarantee that I can get such good stuff every time."

Shen Nian deliberately spoke vaguely, she wanted to see the man's reaction.

Heizi was delighted when he heard Shen Nian's words. No matter how much it was, she still had goods of this quality!

"Big sister, I want as much as you have! You can sell me anything you have!"

"Sister, what else do you have besides food?" Heizi continued to ask.

Shen Nian quickly calculated in his mind that it was not suitable to take out seafood. Liao Province was close to the sea and had no shortage of it.

The same goes for vegetables. They are light and don't take up much weight. The most important thing is that vegetables are cheap now, so it's not cost-effective to sell the vegetables in her space.

"Occasionally there will be some chickens and ducks." Shen Nian quickly calculated and gave Heizi a definite answer, "But not necessarily."

"Okay, then where do you decide to deliver the goods?" Heizi nodded and let Shen Nian decide the delivery address.

"Is there a forest to the east of our town? I'll wait for you there at seven in the morning three days later."

Shen Nian had observed this when he was strolling around before. Coming to the town from Shuangxi Brigade was in the south, and he could see a forest in the east. Shen Nian decided to observe it again when he returned.

As soon as Shen Nian said this, Heizi was secretly stunned. He became more certain that there was someone behind the woman in front of him, and this person was already familiar with this business.

"Okay, I'll be there on time at seven in three days."

Heizi asked someone to come in and weigh the things in Shen Nian's basket. In the end, Shen Nian gave him a discount of 30 cents, and got 84 yuan in total, plus two tickets.

Heizi said that the two tickets were to express his sincerity in cooperation, and Shen Nian did not refuse. After the cooperation intention was reached, Shen Nian prepared to withdraw from the black market.

"Brother Hei, should we follow this woman?" As soon as Shen Nian left, the person next to Heizi asked him.

Heizi waved his hand, indicating that it was not necessary: "Aqiang, we have just taken over the business here, and it is not stable yet. We need these things, so don't worry about it. She takes the things and we take the money. Why do you care where other people's things come from?"

Shen Nian didn't expect that she would encounter such a good thing when she came to the black market this time. It just so happened that she had goods, so she would sell them for a hundred times the price. It would be a shame not to make money when it came to her. She would just have to be extra careful when the time comes.

As soon as she came out of the black market, she saw the old man she had followed just now still wandering on the side of the road. Did he go in but didn’t find what he wanted to buy?

When the old man saw Shen Nian coming out with the basket on his back, he hurried forward and said, "My dear, do you have any food? I want to exchange some for you."

Exchange food?

"Old man, what do you want to exchange for food?"

Shen Nian looked at the old man curiously. This old man probably didn't want to exchange money. He could exchange the money for food inside, so there was no need to stop her here.

The old man took out a cloth bag from his pocket and carefully opened it to show Shen Nian.

Shen Nian took a look and his eyes lit up. Is this a three-piece set of glass-type imperial green jadeite?

"Old man, let's talk somewhere else."

The old man took the cloth package back and followed Shen Nian to an empty alley nearby before stopping.

"Old man, these three things of yours are so beautiful. How did you get them?" Shen Nian asked, pointing at the three wrapped jade ornaments.

"This was handed down from my mother," the old man said with a nostalgic look on his face. "I wouldn't trade it for anything else unless I had to."

At the end of his speech, the old man looked lost again, because his wife and grandson at home were still waiting for food.

"My dear, can I exchange this for some food for you?"

"Then how much food do you want to exchange these things for?" Shen Nian saw that the old man looked reluctant.

"I don't know about that, but I know that although this thing is not valuable now, it will definitely be very valuable in the future."

The old man continued, "My dear daughter, just give me some food as you see fit."

At the end of his speech, the old man began to choke up.

Shen Nian looked at the old man in front of her and couldn't help but feel a trace of sympathy. She could sense the old man's helplessness and anxiety. The family was short of food, so he had no choice but to exchange the family heirloom jade for food.

She had just carefully examined the jadeite wrapped in cloth. The texture of the jadeite was glassy imperial green, and even in the dim alley it emitted a bright green light. It was obvious at a glance that it was of great value.

Shen Nian knew that such jadeite would appreciate a lot in value in the future: "Old man, I really like this thing of yours, but it is not valuable now."

Shen Nian continued, "Besides, I don't have any food on me right now. How about this? Give me an address and I'll send it to you later!"

"Really? My dear girl, please don't lie to me, an old man!"

It turned out that the old woman who had a look of loss on her face when she heard the first half of the sentence, turned out to be surprised when she heard the second half. She really needed food.

Shen Nian nodded repeatedly and comforted the old man, saying, "Don't worry, old man, I will definitely send it to you."

The old man hesitated for a moment before carefully giving his address. Shen Nian memorized it and confirmed it with the old man before saying goodbye and leaving.

Shen Nian had never thought that he would receive such a thing in this era. People in this era are just poor, not stupid.

Everyone more or less knows that this kind of thing can be taken out again sooner or later, and it will be more valuable, so the accident at this moment made Shen Nian feel very surprised.

Finding an empty corner, Shen Nian entered the space. She filled her backpack with things and then walked towards the address the old man had given her.

This is a dilapidated house with few houses around, and Shen Nian's arrival did not attract anyone's attention.

After returning home, the old woman kept waiting outside the yard. She was afraid of being cheated and that the eldest daughter would not come.

When the old man saw Shen Nian appear in his sight, he was very surprised: "My dear, you are here!"

Shen Nian nodded and smiled: "Old man, since I promised you, I will definitely come."

As she spoke, she followed the old man into the yard. There was only one good room in the yard. The rest of the rooms looked like they had been smashed and damaged and were uninhabitable.

"Grandma, you're back?" A faint voice came from the house.

The old man brought Shen Nian into the house, "Hey, Tianci, grandma is back."

Shen Nian entered the room and saw two people lying on the kang. They should be a grandfather and grandson. The next second, the old man's words confirmed her guess.

"This is my wife and grandson." The old man said to Shen Nian, "They are not feeling well."

Shen Nian nodded towards the two people on the kang. The little boy looked at her and shrank back with some curiosity and fear.

Shen Nian smiled at him, and when the little boy saw her smiling at him, he stared at her with his big eyes.

Shen Nian took out the food from the basket on his back and placed it on the table: "This is 50 kilograms of rice, some millet, some white flour, some remaining vegetables and some meat."

After hesitating for a moment, Shen Nian took out a bottle of canned fruit he made himself from the basket: "Give them this can. I made it myself. Eating it will make you feel sweet. If you feel sweet, you may get better soon."

The old man had tears in his eyes: "My dear, you are a good person, thank you."

Although the thing in her hand might be valuable in the future, it was not worth much now. She went to the black market and asked around, but no one was willing to exchange food with her. Everyone only wanted money, but she had no money.

Shen Nian waved his hand: "Old man, please don't be polite. I hope they can get better soon."
