Chapter 140: Chapter 140 Transaction Chapter 140: Chapter 140 Transaction Today’s trip to the county town was quite the ordeal.
I hope I can make so money today.
“No need.”
In this era, at this ti, whether they are courting couples or married couples, everyone in public maintains a stance of refusal.
“Xiaoxiao, we’ve arrived.”
Zhao Tianlei thought that Yun Xiaoxiao would vomit as soon as she got off the bus, since others had already rushed off to vomit at the side.
This was accompanied by the ticket seller’s swearing and cursing.
“I’m fine.” However, the sll of the vomit from those people was unpleasant.
“Let’s hurry up and go.”
Seeing the look of disgust on his wife’s face, Zhao Tianlei quickly pulled her away from there.
“Wife, I need to go to the black market later to sell the ginseng I dug up yesterday.”
“Won’t soone co to arrest us?”
Zhao Tianlei said with a smile, “Not anymore.”
“Wife, I’ll take you to the departnt store while I deal with this. Go take a look around inside, and I’ll co find you once I’ve sold it.”
Going alone?
He doesn’t plan to take her along?
For her, this was also a good thing.
“Then you go ahead, I’ll wait for you.”
This was her first visit to the county town, but she could start by checking the watch prices at the departnt store, otherwise she wouldn’t know how to price the watch she had.
Zhao Tianlei had been to the county town before and knew where the black market was. Though the black market wasn’t strictly regulated nowadays and other places had markets, their area was not fully open yet.
He headed straight there, planning to sell the ginseng quickly and then go back to find his wife.
After Yun Xiaoxiao entered the departnt store, she went to the watch counter and looked at each watch. She had to admit, the watch in her possession was much nicer than the ones on display.
Having a good idea about the pricing, Yun Xiaoxiao turned to leave the departnt store when she heard soone say,
“My son is getting married soon, and his bride’s family wants ‘three turns and a sound’, just lacking the tickets.”
“It’s the sa with my nephew. I’ve heard that people can do business elsewhere now, so why do we still need tickets to buy things here?”
Yun Xiaoxiao’s eyes lit up, and she swiftly approached them, saying with a smile, “Aunts, aunts, I finally found you.”
She whispered, “I have sothing.”
What is it?
The two middle-aged won’s eyes lit up.
“Nier, how co you’re in the county town? Co on, let’s go outside to talk.”
The three of them then left the departnt store and headed towards an alley.
“Aunts, I just heard that soone in your family is getting married and needs ‘three turns and a sound.’ Do you need a watch? No tickets needed.”
The last sentence was the key.
Nowadays, buying such big items still required tickets.
But these tickets were hard to co by.
Just these tickets alone could sell for quite a bit of money on the black market.
“Young lady, do you have watches in hand?”
If she did, the woman considered buying one for her own daughter.
“Aunts, you’re in luck. My cousin sent a few watches from Shenzhen for my family, but since my family wants to buy other things for the New Year, my parents asked to sell so to raise money. I thought of you, aunts, because you seem like honest people, and decided to offer them to you.”
Upon hearing this, smiles broke out on both aunts’ faces.
“Young lady, take them out and let’s have a look.”
“One is leather, and the other looks a bit like the ones in the departnt store.”
Yun Xiaoxiao pulled up her sleeve, revealing two watches on her arm.
The two aunts were montarily stunned.
Such a stylish design.
Better looking than the i Hua brand watches in the departnt store.
The leather strap model was exquisite.
