Simmering, hoping and hoping, when this semester is over, we can finally have winter vacation.
The local students in the school immediately ran home. It was a hard day.
This winter was particularly cold. I slept in the middle of the night and was hungry and cold. People in a dormitory often hugged each other to keep warm. Even in the middle of the night, they didn't dare to urinate casually.
It may be worse for most of the students when they go home. Every family may not be better off than at school, but the people, depressed for a long time, always flee with hope.
Originally this semester, a class of students had to follow the professor to visit the unit during the winter vacation. The teacher didn't even mention this, and everyone broke up in a rush. Zhang Guoqing was so happy to pretend to be stupid and told the students that his husband and wife would return to their hometown in Northeast China.
Really have a mission, have the ability, you teachers go to the Northeast to find him.
Carrying luggage, Zhang Guoqing dragged Zhou Jiao and Yi Jiefang's buddies to shout happily and ran all the way to the small station. It's not easy, his wife is about to become a piece of paper.
Zhou Jiao stomped her feet in a hurry. These fools! You are so energetic that you are not afraid to wear help. Didn't you see all the students in the nearby schools are soft and helpless?
Inside the station, Zhou Jiao panted her legs with her hands, "Brothers, can we be more reserved?"
After hearing this, everyone burst into laughter, but found something wrong, winking each other's eyes and calming down.
"You really go back to your hometown?"
"We protect you back."
Zhang Guoqing smiled and shook his head, "Nothing happened, and I basically won't go back."
Yi Jiefang heard how many people were crying, what about their meat? There are many people in their family, but unlike the Zhou family, Zhou Xiaozheng can guarantee that the whole family can taste it.
"The car is here, let's go back." Zhang Guoqing helped Zhou Jiao to leave first. At the end of the year, he had to look for the black market in the capital to see the situation. He really didn't plan to return to his hometown.
When he arrived near the compound, Yi Jiefang didn't even go home, so he resolutely took his luggage and went to Zhou's house first. Everyone is also going to discuss how to spend the winter, and who knows when they can gather together.
A group of people entered the compound and rushed to the west wing of Zhou's house with their luggage. The elders of this society did not get off work, all of them softened on the kang without image.
Not surprising, Zhou Jiao went to the bedroom alone, packed her luggage, and took the change of clothes to the bathroom. At first glance, it was still early and Ping An had not finished school.
She came to the living room slowly and saw that Aunt Chen had already ordered two bowls of noodles.
"There are too many people, I didn't prepare them, you can eat it first and come here for Xiaowu."
Zhou Jiao smiled and shook her head, "Auntie puts some pimple soup on their stomachs. They gave a lot of biscuits some time ago, don't lose them."
"Okay. Xiao Fei seems to have something to do with Xiao Wu, leave a message to let Xiao Wu hurry up and contact him. The chief asks you to come back and take care of yourself and don't run out."
Zhou Jiao nodded after listening.
Speaking of Fang Fei, she thought of his wedding this November. It's really simple enough. Just in the cafeteria, the young couple in military uniforms swear a few words, and they are married.
The couple paid two yuan for their parents-in-law, and they also included a two-yuan red envelope, and her father paid five yuan each to the Yi family and the Fang family. Thinking of the New Year's Eve money Fang Fei had given to Ping An before, well, it was a big loss.
Thinking of this, Zhou Jiao laughed silly. If this thought is known to people, you can't say that your son will follow him.
Zhang Guoqing was nestling in the West Wing, listening to them talking about which black market is most suitable. Come on, these buddies are all knowingly committing crimes.
"I've said this, and the next thing is the meat problem. I have asked acquaintances to help with the seafood. The price is twice as expensive as usual. Who of you wants to say, if there are more, ten catties per person."
"It's only ten catties, not enough to stuff your teeth. Think of a way to get the other party to do more." Wan Dayong curled his mouth in disgust towards Yi Jiefang.
"My buddy, there's no way. Yellow croaker is usually 40 cents per catty, but now it is not available on the black market for a dollar. We are not good at embarrassing others."
Zhang Guoqing smiled and watched them arguing over ten catties of seafood. In my mind, I recalled that one sack and one sack didn't even cost five dollars.
It's really the treatment of heaven and hell.
Wan Dayong patted himself on the forehead, "Did we hurriedly come back and forgot to say hello to Mu?"
Ding Datou smiled and said, "Da Yi had a good talk with him long ago, and I was there yesterday. But he has to go back to his hometown to get the news."
"Yes, the young man has a future."
Yi Jiefang patted Wan Dayong's arm on his shoulder, and said with a smile: "Don't be too happy. It's just a drizzle. What's worth it."
Aunt Chen came in with a wooden tray and shouted: "Put your stomach first, don't just chat."
"Auntie, your deep love."
"I'm hungry, and I have forgotten my empty stomach after a long time."
Zhang Guoqing got up and went out, leaving a few of them in the house. When I arrived in the living room, I saw a bowl of noodles. But why are you so happy to eat alone?
"I'll go out with them in a while, just to pick up my son. You go to the room to lie down."
Zhou Jiao lowered her voice, "Did they talk about the result?"
"A few people get together and talk about the same, no matter how much it is."
When Zhou Jiao saw this, she didn't ask any more, and asked him to eat noodles quickly.
In the early morning of the next day, Zhang Guoqing led Zhou Jiao to the black market in the southern suburbs after some disguise. I heard people mention this piece of land, he hasn't been here yet, and I don't know if it is the largest in the city as the other party said.
When they arrived at the place, the black lamp was blinded by the faintly exposed gas lamp, and the couple didn't really plan to buy anything. After reading it again, they found that there was everything. In order not to look weird, they bought two river fish.
After asking a few prices, Zhang Guoqing and Zhou Jiao looked at ~EbookFREE.me~ and could feel each other's shock.
It's really a day in the mountains, a hundred years in the world. They didn't expect the price to rise so ridiculously, it is really "Luoyang paper expensive". No wonder so many people are reluctant to eat and trade.
I heard that a large bread costs fifteen yuan, and a catty of biscuits cost ten yuan per catty by food stamp. Zhou Jiao's eyes flashed, she lowered her eyes and pulled Zhang Guoqing.
In a blink of an eye, a catty of food coupons has risen to five yuan and can't be bought.
I have to say that Zhou Jiao was tempted.
She sold the biscuits and could be exchanged for food stamps plus ten yuan per catty, which was too cost-effective.
Seeing that she was about to move, Zhang Guoqing pulled her down in the corner, spread a black bag on the ground, and put two packets of biscuits on it. So the couple started business.
Don't look at Zhou Jiao's living from a part-time job since she was a child. She really didn't set up a street stall. This will allow Zhang Guoqing to return to his old business and is quite skilled in business.
After a while, a middle-aged man stepped forward and asked for five packs of cookies.
Zhang Guoqing took out five packs from the black bag behind him and handed them to the other party. Zhou Jiao immediately took the money. The couple cooperated tacitly and won the first battle!
After selling 20 packets of biscuits, Zhang Guoqing saw that they were all local food stamps valid for one month, and it was very troublesome to change the national food stamps. He immediately exchanged goods and replaced them with chaff.
He is not very demanding and does not need three yuan for a catty of grain chaff.
As for why the price was exactly three yuan, it was also smooth. Can he tell everyone that he likes the collection value of three yuan banknotes?
Given the high prices around, this should be considered the lowest price, and it should be a real shortage of food for everyone. In a short while, he took out a hundred catties of grain chaff for decoration and sold them all.
Zhou Jiao kept taking the money, sighing secretly that it was a huge profit.
If it weren't for fear that the goal was too big, all the chaff in the space would be sold, and the family would not have to go to work for ten years and would just eat together and die.
