Chapter 73 Trading
"Okay, thank you then." In order to prevent Xia Minglei from suspecting anything, Lin Yiwan smiled with curved eyebrows, looking as innocent and cute as a sixteen-year-old girl.
This way, Xia Minglei won't be on guard and won't want to hide anything, and Lin Yiwan will know more.
When Lin Jing saw that Lin Yiwan agreed to let Xia Minglei send her back, he looked at Xia Minglei angrily. This Xia Minglei was so annoying. He had to snatch Yiwan from him even though he and Yiwan grew up together.
When she got back to the door of her house, Lin Yiwan reached out and touched her hair that was messed up by the wind, smiling shyly, "Comrade Xia, thank you, I will go home now, you should go back and rest early too!"
Xia Minglei looked at Lin Yiwan with a smile until Lin Yiwan turned and went into the yard. He stood there reluctantly, watching Lin Yiwan go into the house before Xia Minglei left reluctantly.
Lin Jing snorted coldly, pushed open the door of his own yard and went in.
Lin Lan shrugged helplessly, entered the yard, turned around and closed the door.
Lin Yiwan returned to her room, sat down at the desk, and pounded the table hard with her fist. If she had known that Xia Minglei was such a person, she would never have been ambiguous with Xia Minglei.
She had originally planned to take the college entrance examination and go to the city where Xia Minglei's family lived after it was resumed in the future, so that it would be convenient for them to be together. But now it seems that there is no need for this.
She would rather raise a little puppy that belongs to her alone than have a man like Xia Minglei who plays around so much.
Wen Xi arrived at the door of her house and saw Lin Chuyang standing outside the gate with something in his hand. She was a little confused and asked, "Comrade Lin, why are you here?"
"Comrade Wen, I came here to see you." Lin Chuyang limped over to Wen Xi, "Comrade Wen, thank you for your help. If it weren't for you, I would have had to soak in the water for a long time."
Wen Xi smiled faintly, "Comrade Lin, this is just a very small matter, you don't have to take it to heart. I believe that no matter who encounters this situation, they will lend a helping hand."
People of this era are simple and enthusiastic. When encountering such things, few people will stand idly by, so Wen Xi was not wrong.
"Anyway, Comrade Wen helped me a lot. If it weren't for Comrade Wen, I might have gotten sick from soaking in the water, so thank you, Comrade Wen." Lin Chuyang put the cloth bag in his hand on Wen Xi's backpack, turned around and walked away quickly, limping like a big white duck.
When he fell into the ditch, his leg must have been hit by the bicycle, causing a slight fracture, so now he walks with a limp. Even in this state, he is still not behaving himself and even ran out to thank her and give her something. I really don't know what to say to him.
Wen Xi looked at the cloth bag in the backpack and smiled helplessly. After closing the gate, he carried the backpack in, put it beside the well, and then carried the cloth bag back to his room.
After that, Wen Xi began to check the things in the backpack. Unexpectedly, there was a can of malted milk, a bottle of canned yellow peaches, and a box of biscuits. Wen Xi also didn't expect that Lin Chuyang would be so generous to give her so many thank-you gifts. However, Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue also helped to pull Lin Chuyang's bicycle up, so Wen Xi would not keep these things for herself.
Wen Xi put these three things in the cupboard and told Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue to eat what they should eat and drink what they should drink, and not to waste them.
The next morning, Wen Xi had breakfast early, and at daybreak, she went out with a backpack on her back. During dinner, she had already told Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue that they would visit Aunt Yan's house today. This was her first time there, and she was not familiar with Aunt Yan's family, so it would be inappropriate to bring Shen Jiaojiao and Jiang Yue with her.
Because others can easily mistake them for poor relatives from the countryside who come to ask for money.
Before going to bed at night, Wen Xi packed up all the things he wanted to sell and went directly to the black market to trade.
Lin Yiwan goes to trade every Friday night because many companies have Saturday and Sunday off and everyone is in desperate need of supplies. That is to say, if Lin Yiwan gets the supplies on the black market, they will probably be divided up before dawn.
Therefore, as long as she avoided Friday, she would not run into Lin Yiwan on any other day. And today happened to be Thursday, and the supplies that everyone had stockpiled before should have been almost used up.
Wen Xi had read the original text, so she naturally knew where the black market that Lin Yiwan went to every Friday was, so she went directly to the black market that Lin Yiwan went to.
It was still dark at this moment, but people were already coming and going in the alley because everyone was rushing to buy things before their families went to work.
Wen Xi took out a 'Rejuvenating Pill' and swallowed it, then she turned into a strange man. This 'Rejuvenating Pill' can change one's appearance, but one pill can only be used for two hours, so she must complete the transaction within two hours, otherwise she will have to take the second pill.
There were only a few pills of 'Rejuvenating Pills' in the small glass bottle, and she was reluctant to waste them.
Wen Xi took out a mirror and took a look. The image of a middle-aged man appeared before her eyes. She estimated that even if her parents and second brother stood in front of her, they would not recognize that this middle-aged man was her.
At the entrance of the black market, two young men were standing on both sides watching.
Wen Xi walked over, but was stopped before he could speak. "What are you doing?"
Wen Xi took out two cans of rapeseed oil from his backpack and said, "Comrade, I want to see your boss. I have some business to discuss with him. Can you please help inform him?"
Then he stuffed one of the bottles of rapeseed oil into the man's hand. Rapeseed oil was very rare at that time, so when the man saw the rapeseed oil, he understood everything.
The man glanced at Wen Xi and whispered, "Follow me."
Then he led Wenxi inside, turning left and right in the long, dark alley. After a long while, they finally arrived at a door. The man asked Wenxi to wait outside while he went in to report.
Soon the man came out and asked Wen Xi to go in. Wen Xi did not hesitate, but walked in directly. She saw a man who looked ten years older than her husband sitting in the main seat, looking at her seriously.
Wen Xi thought about her image as a middle-aged man at the moment, and believed that the other party would not do anything to her easily, so she walked over with gritted teeth.
The black market boss spoke up, "You have business to discuss with me?"
Wen Xi nodded, then placed rapeseed oil and more than half a pound of large fish on the table in front of the black market boss, and said, "I don't have much rapeseed oil, only ten pounds, and several hundred pounds of fish. I want to exchange it for money and tickets. I wonder if you are willing to do so."
The black market boss picked up the rapeseed oil, opened the lid, put it close to his nose and sniffed it. It smelled so good that he almost drooled.
