Chapter 6 City
The road to the health center and the county town are in the same direction, so even if someone sees me walking towards the county town, they won't suspect anything.
The sister-in-law who asked this question is the village chief’s wife.
Seeing me coming, the other sister-in-law walked away.
The sister-in-law who walked away was none other than Ye Qian's relative.
Ye Qian looked at the basin in her hand. The bowls in it had not been washed yet. She was so afraid of herself.
You are afraid that I will pester you, and I am also afraid that you will pester me.
It's better this way, and it will be irrelevant in the future.
When the village chief's wife saw this, she didn't say anything, washed her own bowl and left.
I don't have anything wrong with me. I have no intention of getting close to everyone. I will have to leave sooner or later.
…
There is no one at the well now, which Ye Qian thinks is just right.
Although I have memories now, I have never drawn water. What if the secret is exposed?
Ye Qian saw a bucket next to the well with a rope on it. It was a public bucket specially used to fetch water for everyone.
Stand by the well, take the rope, slowly put the bucket into the well, and then shake the rope left and right according to your memory, and there should be water in the bucket.
The bucket brought up for the first time had only a little water. Ye Qian poured it into her own bucket and lowered the rope again.
After one experience, it was much better the second time and I also drank half a bucket.
It's not enough to draw too much water. I'm not strong enough to lift it up at all.
The two buckets I brought were only half filled, so I carried them back with a pole.
I ran back and forth like this all morning, and I filled up the water tank.
Exhausted, I lay down and sighed, I really couldn't do it.
Look at those thin arms and legs, they can’t get up, so just have some lunch.
Using the boiling water in the space, I made a bowl of instant noodles and added a piece of ham sausage.
There is nothing more comfortable than taking a nap after eating.
I slept until almost midnight and did nothing during the day.
If that's the case, then just don't get up at all.
Ye Qian thought about what to eat for dinner. Although her body did not move, her mind kept moving. After thinking for a while, she took out a bowl of beef noodles, a fried chicken leg, a palm-sized strawberry cake and a bottle of zero.
Fatty oolong tea.
Um.
Perfect.
It's getting dark now that I'm full, and I can't sleep. I'd better go to the space to sort out some supplies that I can sell, and eat some food on the way. Since I plan to go to the city, there's a lot of people there, so I might be able to make a profit.
After sorting out the supplies, people in the city are richer than in the county, and fine grains should be easy to sell, so I prepared a lot of fine grains.
Rice and white noodles are packed in the same 20 bags per pound as before. There are some noodles without logos, and some noodles with logos are also unpacked and repackaged. Brown sugar and white sugar are packed in 2 pounds per bag, as are chickens and ducks.
Sold whole.
After sorting it out in this way, put these materials aside, and then you can take them out and sell them directly.
Stop and take a breath.
Although this body had done farm work, it was still quite weak. It didn't do much and it broke out in sweat. I boiled water to wash it off and quickly fell asleep.
…
When I got up in the morning, I ate the leftover sweet porridge from yesterday morning and ate 2 large meat buns.
I put my small backpack on my back, locked the door, and left.
We can't come back tonight. It's a long way to go to the city. We have to walk from the village to the county station first. Moreover, this train only leaves twice a day. They run on time, at 10 am and 4 pm. If you miss it at night,
I'm going to spend the night here.
You'll have to stay in a hotel for the night, and you'll need money, not to mention a letter of introduction.
I hurriedly hurriedly and slowly, and finally arrived at the station before the train started to speed up, and successfully boarded the train.
The car is not big, but it is full of luggage. It is inconvenient to go shopping now. Everything requires a ticket. If you can prepare it, you will prepare it yourself.
Ye Qian glanced at it and saw that there was an empty seat in the last row. She squeezed past and sat down quickly.
Before I could catch my breath, the car started to drive.
The city is not close to the county seat. The car bumped and swayed all the way, and finally arrived at the city after 2 hours.
Fortunately, she didn't get motion sickness, but she still felt uncomfortable. After getting off the car, Ye Qian found a place and sat down to relax.
I started to leave after my health got better. This city is different from the county. The houses look very new. Most of them are brick and tile houses, some of which are brick and wood, and the floors are basically two floors.
When I was on the bus, I had already asked the conductor to find out what was around the station.
After exiting the car door and walking straight to the right for 15 minutes, there is a state-run hotel. If you want to stay, go there.
I just asked around, and I didn’t have a letter of introduction. How could I live there?
There is a supply and marketing cooperative on the street opposite the state-owned hotel. When I walked into the supply and marketing cooperative, I found that the supplies were much more complete than those in the county town.
Although every item is not full, at least there is nothing empty, and the snacks at the door are fresher than those in the county.
But I walked around on the first floor and came out. Now is not the time to go shopping, but to eat quickly.
I was staggering along the way and I was already hungry.
Ye Qian left the supply and marketing cooperative and walked for a long time before she saw a state-owned restaurant. It was lunch time.
There were a lot of people at the door, so I didn’t really want to queue up, so after thinking about it, I decided to forget it and eat next time.
Ye Qian found a deserted alley and entered the space. She ate a bowl of Malatang, a cup of milk tea, a portion of French fries and two chicken wings.
Ye Qian was eating her lunch and thought to herself, "If I had known there were so many people in the state-owned hotel, I would have gone directly to the space to eat, and I would have had to walk so much."
After lunch, Ye Qian set up the tent she bought before in the space and slept in it.
After calculating the time, I didn't forget to put on makeup and change my clothes when I went out at night.
Ye Qian left the space and walked out of the alley. The road at night was quite scary. She walked for a long time without seeing the black market. She finally met someone and ran over to ask, which shocked the other person.
In fact, the black market is not far away, just behind the supply and marketing cooperative. The entrance is very hidden. If you don't ask, you may not be able to find it.
Ye Qian put some noodles into her small basket, and the brown sugar went into the black market.
I walked to the side and sat down. After observing for a while, I saw a woman with a sallow complexion and thin skin, but she was well-dressed. She must have a good family background.
He walked over and said, "Sister, would you like noodles and brown sugar?"
Ye Qian was afraid that others would hear her, so she deliberately lowered her voice after walking in.
When the eldest sister heard that they were all scarce supplies, her eyes lit up, and she followed her to the deserted alley next to her.
After the transaction between the two, Ye Qian sold several rounds of supplies in the same way, and then hurriedly left the place.
I walked into a deserted alley, waited for a while and then returned to the space after I didn't hear any footsteps or see anyone.
After counting today's results, I sold more than 600 yuan and several tickets in just over an hour.
squeak...
