Black Market Boss: His Beloved Wife's Lazy Life
Chapter 27 Black Market
She hasn't seen that man at work these past few days.
The man, Gao Jianguo, was in a courtyard in the commune.
Gao Jianguo was there. Four men were sitting in the main room: Gao Jianguo, Wang Dali, and two other unfamiliar men.
"Old Gao, why have you been working so hard lately to get inventory and make money?"
Xiao Daxiong, one of his subordinates, asked his boss.
"To earn money to build a house and get married," Gao Jianguo said, expressing what most people hope for.
"Boss, do you have someone you like?"
Another subordinate, Li Ergou, subconsciously asked his boss.
"Knock knock knock, knock knock knock." An anxious knocking sound came from outside the door.
"What's the matter?" Wang Dali asked the person outside the door as he walked to the door.
"Ergou, there's an old lady at the door. She says she has a lot of grain." Li Gouzi called anxiously from outside the door.
"Alright, I'm here." Li Ergou said, opening the door.
As soon as the door opened, Li Gouzi ignored Li Ergou, who opened it for him, and rushed straight into the main room.
"Boss, look, this is the grain that old lady brought."
As Li Gouzi spoke, he handed the grain in his hand to Gao Jianguo.
Gao Jianguo picked up the grain in front of him and examined it closely. He saw that the rice and flour were both very white and had a faint aroma of grain.
"Yes, as many as you can get."
Gao Jianguo said firmly.
“That old lady said she wants to see you.” Li Ergou looked at Gao Jianguo cautiously.
As the boss of the black market, Gao Jianguo generally doesn't meet with outsiders.
"Bring her over." After thinking for a moment, Gao Jianguo decided to meet her.
After receiving the order, Li Ergou ran off eagerly.
Two hours ago.
Shang Yanfang thought of her messed-up life in her previous life.
I didn't go to university, I didn't earn much money, and I've never traveled.
In this era where anyone with hands can earn money, and with her spatial ability, wouldn't it be even easier for her to make money?
Remembering how novels always featured people going south to buy goods, she thought, "Why don't I just bring a spatial dimension with me, and then put all the goods into it when I get back?"
But she lacks capital. The few hundred yuan her family gave her is far from enough. She needs to save at least a thousand.
Thinking of the food in my own space.
He then carefully examined his own space using his divine sense.
She decided to sell some of the food she didn't need at the moment.
Sure enough, she appeared at the commune today, and she followed an old woman furtively to the entrance of an alley.
Then I heard the old woman ask, "Have you eaten today?"
"I haven't eaten yet. What food did you have?"
"Tonight's dinner is broad bean noodles."
The two whispered a secret signal, and then the old woman handed a penny to the young man guarding the gate before entering the legendary black market.
After watching the whole thing, Shang Yanfang found a deserted dead-end alley and saw her take out cosmetics, a set of middle-aged clothes, and a wig from her spatial storage.
When she came out of the alley again, she had transformed from an eighteen-year-old young woman into a middle-aged woman.
She had a large mole on her face, a hunched back, and a basket slung over her arm.
They walked unsteadily toward the black market.
She asked the same question she had asked the older woman before, "Have you eaten today?"
"No, what kind of food?"
"Tonight's dinner is broad bean noodles."
After passing the test of the code, she walked slowly, looking at the people on both sides as she went.
Several people were squatting on both sides of the alley, and people were coming and going in a hurry.
She saw a stall with only one little boy squatting there.
Curious, she walked up to the little boy and asked, "What are you selling?"
The little boy slowly took out a jade pendant from his pocket.
"Ah, ah, ah," I've heard that in the past, national treasures like gold and jade were found everywhere, and it turns out it's true.
She was incredibly excited.
She calmly accepted the jade pendant from the boy's hand.
The jade pendant I received was crystal clear, warm and lustrous. Its lines were smooth and natural, the carving was exquisite and delicate, and it emitted a faint glow.
Although she had never seen it before, her sixth sense told her that this thing was indeed a treasure.
"How do we change this?" Shang Yanfang asked the little boy.
"Two yuan, two yuan," the little boy stammered.
Shang Yanfang looked at the jade pendant in her hand with some disbelief.
Although she had never handled this jade pendant before, she knew it was a valuable item.
"One dollar, one dollar and fifty cents."
Seeing her in a daze, the little boy thought he had asked for too much. He carefully lowered the price.
"Ah." Shang Yanfang came to her senses and subconsciously took out two yuan from her inner pocket and handed it to the little boy.
The little boy looked at the two yuan in front of him and hesitated whether to take it or not.
"Take it."
Shang Yanfang stuffed two yuan into the little boy's hand and then walked inside with her basket.
Holding the jade pendant in her hand was inconvenient, so she casually tossed it into her personal space.
"Sister, how do I exchange this grain?"
Shang Yanfang saw a middle-aged woman with some grain in front of her and asked her a question.
"With a ticket, it's one cent per pound; without a ticket, it's two cents per pound."
The middle-aged woman rolled her eyes at her as she spoke.
Seeing the old woman's look, Shang Yanfang scratched her head in confusion.
When she touched her own head, she realized that she seemed to be older than the older woman.
Calling her "big sister" is really impolite.
If a stranger older than her called her "big sister," she would probably yell back.
She didn't dare stay at the stall any longer.
I quietly walked a little further inside.
The black market wasn't large, but it had everything you'd expect.
Some of the goods are mountain produce grown by the villagers themselves, and some are fish caught in the river. There are also some defective products from the factory, but they are defective and still usable.
There are also some fabrics with uneven dyeing.
Shang Yanfang grabbed a piece of fabric from the huge pile.
She couldn't help but marvel at how formidable the older women were; she, a "pseudo-older woman," had almost been swallowed up by the crowd.
After finally squeezing out of the crowd, he put the stolen cloth into his basket.
As I continued walking, I saw an old man with two baskets of eggs in front of him.
Within minutes, it was all snatched up by a group of people.
After browsing around, Shang Yanfang came to a conclusion: there was a severe shortage of food in this black market. Only one "big sister" had food, and it was all sold out by the time she returned.
He walked to the door with the basket in his arms, opened the cloth on the basket, and showed it to the black market gatekeeper, Li Gouzi.
"I still have a lot."
Upon hearing the words of the newcomer, Li Gouzi immediately sprang to attention and prepared to go find his boss.
Seeing that the person had run away, Shang Yanfang called out anxiously.
"I want to talk to your boss."
"Okay," the dog said, running along.
Shang Yanfang waited for the dog on the side, watching people come and go.
Some people even handed Shang Yanfang a dime when they went in.
Next, it was Li Gouzi knocking on the door.
"Auntie, Auntie, come on. I'll take you to see my boss." Gouzi probably got permission first.
"Da Wu, you stay here and keep watch. I'm going to see the boss."
The dog called out to Da Wu, asked someone to watch the door, and then led Shang Yanfang to see Gao Jianguo.
