1970s: A hot-tempered wife who accompanied a soldier to the military compound and made a fortune.

Chapter 583 Black Market
Although it was her first time here, she possessed spiritual power.

To save time and get back as soon as possible, I unleashed my mental energy as soon as I entered.

When she came in, the people at the entrance told her that the exit was at the other end. Upon closer inspection, she discovered that the black market was quite large.

After turning the corner, she saw a stall set up every so often on both sides of the alley. If she hadn't used her spiritual power, she would never have known that the alley was actually full of twists and turns. What surprised her most was that the police station was not far from the exit.

Whether this is a case of playing dirty tricks or prioritizing profit, everyone is keeping quiet. It seems the organizer of this black market is quite capable.

Previously in Beijing, she hadn't had time to look for the black market, but now it's like a mouse entering a rice bin.

Fortunately, when she came, in addition to disguising herself, she also carried a large basket on her back.

Not long after entering, she saw a stall selling defective fabric. The price was similar to that of the genuine fabric sold at the supply and marketing cooperative, but no coupons were required. It was clear that the stall had connections with a textile factory. Most of the fabric was fine cotton, so she couldn't miss it. She bought quite a lot of floral, blue, and black fabrics. She also bought about ten meters of white fabric with red dots. She put them in her basket, but actually, she stored them all in her spatial storage.

Further on, I saw a stall selling chicks and ducklings: "How much?"

Autumn is the season for replenishing poultry stocks, so it's not uncommon to see young chickens and ducks here. Moreover, although poultry farming in Northeast China is mainly traditional family farming at this time, it is quite common. Even in urban areas, many families raise poultry.

The man looked up at her and said, "Three cents for five or fewer, two cents for more than five."

Chu Xue glanced inside and saw twelve chicks and five ducklings: "If I take them all, can you give me a discount?"

The stall owner was surprised by her response and, after a moment's thought, said, "Okay, I'll charge you 18 cents."

Chu Xue didn't hesitate: "Then I'll take them all, and I'll take this basket too."

Upon hearing this, the stall owner said, "Consider the basket a free gift." Since everyone was trying to make a living, Chu Xue simply handed over three yuan and fifty cents, saying, "Consider the rest as payment for the basket."

After saying that, he picked up the basket and walked forward. There was a bend in the road ahead, and he soon disappeared from sight.

As soon as she turned the corner, Chu Xue put the basket into her backpack, and instantly the chicks and ducklings entered the space and went to their designated area.

Further on, I saw people selling rice seeds with the husks still on.

Although it wasn't much, it was enough for her, and she bought it all without hesitation. In her previous life, she mostly bought rice from Northeast China. She had tried rice from the South a few times, but she felt that Northeast rice was more to her liking.

Just as I was about to leave, I noticed a few small paper packets on the side and casually asked, "What's inside these?"

The stall owner took out a bag and opened it: "Sunflower seeds and pumpkin seeds."

Chu Xue glanced at them; each one was plump and clearly carefully selected. "Give me a pack of each," she said.

After paying, we continued walking.

She also bought some dried goods such as wood ear fungus and hazel mushrooms, as well as Guoguang apples and Nanguo pears. She also saw that they were selling persimmons, but she didn't like persimmons and didn't buy any.

After walking a little further, at a bend in the road, I saw a bearded man with some unfamiliar dishes in front of him: "What are these?"

The man looked up at her and said, "Bracken fern."

Chu Xue repeated, "Bracken fern? There's still bracken fern this season?"
