Chapter 65 County Town (3)
Lu Xiaoxiao found a back basket in the space, and put a catty of noodles, a catty of flour and a catty of rice in it. These were mainly for showing samples to others. If anyone wanted her, she would use the back basket as a cover to get them from the space.
After leaving the space, Lu Xiaoxiao walked towards the black market. The black market here is different from the black market in Beijing. To enter the black market here, you have to pay a fee of 50 cents before you can enter.
Lu Xiaoxiao reckoned that these people were probably underground forces in the county. They had their own channels to know if anyone was coming to crack down on the black market, and if so, they could notify the people in the black market in advance to leave, so it was only natural for them to charge some money.
When she arrived at the black market, Lu Xiaoxiao found a seat and sat down. She took out the flour in the basket and put it on the ground. After a while, a well-dressed old lady came to her booth and asked, "How do you sell this flour? "
"No ticket for two yuan per catty."
The old lady hesitated after hearing the price, then she squatted down and asked Lu Xiaoxiao in a low voice, "Can I exchange it with something?"
Lu Xiaoxiao was overjoyed when she heard the old lady's words, but she didn't show it at all.
"What do you want to exchange?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked the old lady.
"A pair of jade bracelets and two jade pendants."
"Yes, but there are too many people here, let's discuss how to trade under the big tree where no one is there."
Lu Xiaoxiao came under the big tree and told the old lady that she had flour, noodles, and rice, and showed her the samples in the basket, and asked her what she wanted.
The old lady's eyes lit up with excitement when she saw the things in the back basket, and she said she wanted all three, then she reached into her sleeve and took out a pair of bracelets and two jade pendants.
Since the bracelet and jade pendant are both imperial green, the old lady said that these three items were made from a single piece of jade. If they were priceless in the past, but now they are not as good as a catty of grain, so she asked Lu Xiaoxiao How much food can Xiao Xiao exchange for these few things.
Lu Xiaoxiao didn't know how much food these things should be exchanged for now, but she would know how much they should exchange for in future generations, so she pushed the question back and asked the old lady how much food she wanted to exchange for those things.
The old lady hesitated for a while before saying hesitantly: "I want to exchange five catties of rice, five catties of flour and five catties of noodles. If you think it's too much, you can do a little bit."
Hearing the old lady's words, Lu Xiaoxiao said in her heart: not much, not much at all, it is more expensive than the price of cabbage, as if you don't want money, although it is very immoral to change this way, but this is the way of the world, if You only put yourself in mortal danger by breaking the rules.
Lu Xiaoxiao used the cover of the back basket to replace all the samples in the back basket with five catties, and also took out a bottle of peanut oil that was in a glass jar that was one catty in the space.
She was afraid that it would be too eye-catching for the old lady to carry so many things back home, so she gave the basket directly to the old lady.
When the old lady checked the contents of the back basket, she found that there was an extra bottle of oil. When she was about to take out the oil, Lu Xiaoxiao stopped her.
"This bottle of oil is given to you by buying so many things from me." Lu Xiaoxiao said to the old lady.
After hearing Lu Xiaoxiao's words, the old lady said thank you happily.
Seeing the happy look of the old lady, Lu Xiaoxiao thought that although she can't do too much now, it's not a big problem for her to send a small bottle of oil.
Lu Xiaoxiao left the black market after taking what the old lady handed over, and then she found a place where no one was around and entered the space to change the outfit back to the original one.
Today, she was too excited to make a big deal, fearing that her emotions would affect her thinking ability and thus her judgment. This would make it difficult to detect danger when it came, so she didnt plan to enter the black market again today.
