Chapter 63 Looks like a female star
Mawang Temple was burned down by war decades ago, but from the ruins left behind, it can be seen that its scale was not small back then.
Moreover, the Mawang Temple is surrounded by woods. If someone comes to chase and block it, there will be no way for thousands of people to surround it. It is indeed a geomantic treasure.
Sure enough, the people who organized the black market couldn't take advantage of the fire even if they didn't have two brushes.
Lin Sanqi spent 1 dime and bought two tickets to enter the black market.
It was still dark at this time, and the road was unfamiliar and there were steps and broken bricks everywhere, so Lin Sanqi took Pan Ye's hand with care and walked forward together in the dark.
Pan Ye didn't hold hands at first, but she accidentally fell twice while walking, and then she became honest.
Of course, it may be that Lin Sanqi is a bit handsome. If it were a greasy man, Pan Ye would probably break his leg rather than have his hand held.
The rules of the black market are that you cannot turn on the flashlight for a long time, and you are not allowed to shine it on people's faces.
Only when they are interested in something, both parties are allowed to turn on the flashlight to look at the goods, and then turn off the flashlight to discuss the price. The transaction is successful and the buyer and seller do not know who the other party is.
Pan Ye saw Lin Sanqi minding his own business and asked:
"You, what do you want to sell?"
"Oh, there are tea leaves and brown sugar in my backpack."
"Wow, you are so powerful. These things are more precious than food. No wonder you would rather fight back than be robbed. You are selling food in this direction. To sell tea, we have to go to Sanguan Palace."
Obviously Pan Ye has been here several times and is more experienced.
Lin Sanqi nodded, thinking that this black market also has functional subdivisions, making it easier for buyers to find places. It is indeed well organized by someone.
So Pan Ye walked in front, and Lin Sanqi followed behind, still holding her little hand.
The two walked for 10 minutes, going around and around, and arrived at a small open square. There were already many people setting up on the beach. The flashlights and fire sticks that lit up from time to time looked like fireflies.
Lin Sanqi estimated that it was already two or three o'clock in the middle of the night, so he had to move faster.
So I found a place, spread out a piece of oilcloth, and placed a pack of Longjing, a pack of jasmine, and a pack of brown sugar on it. The fragrance of tea immediately wafted from the place.
Pan Ye sat obediently on the bricks in the back, still holding her broken baby bell in her arms.
As soon as the business opened, two men with glasses came over smelling the fragrance.
"Little brother, are you selling tea? What kind?"
Lin Sanqi quickly greeted her warmly: "Good jasmine tea, Longjing tea, and brown sugar are also available. You two can take a look."
As soon as he finished speaking, the two flashlights on the opposite side were turned on at the same time, looking a little impatient. Then they both squatted down, picked up a bag of tea, and looked at and smelled it.
"Good tea, I haven't seen such good tea for a long time."
"Yeah, it's a pity that I can't even drink high break now. Little brother, how much does it cost?"
"Jasmine is 50 per catty, Longjing tea is 100 per catty, and brown sugar is 20 per catty. No bargaining. You two are experts and know that it is not easy to get tea now."
"Hey, you only want money, not tickets?"
"No tickets, I just want cash."
One of the middle-aged men hesitated for a moment and then gave the answer:
"Okay, give me 2 kilograms of jasmine tea and 1 kilogram of Longjing tea." Lin Sanqi was happy. Although the other party was not as generous as Fu Zuo, he was still a big customer after buying 3 kilograms of tea in one go.
Before Lin Sanqi could turn around, she saw three paper bags and handed them over. It was obviously Pan Ye who took the initiative to help.
Lin Sanqi smiled slightly, took the tea and handed it to one of the middle-aged men.
Another middle-aged man was also anxious: "I want it too, I want it too. Give me 2 pounds of jasmine tea, 2 pounds of Longjing tea, and 2 pounds of brown sugar."
Pan Ye moved quickly and handed over 6 more paper packets.
In the blink of an eye, I got 540 yuan.
Obviously both parties were satisfied with the deal. After checking the contents of the paper bag, the two middle-aged men quickly disappeared into the night.
The trade opened here, and more people gathered over there. Tea and brown sugar are strategic materials and are rarely put on the market during natural disasters. They are all exported to earn foreign exchange.
So as long as the goods are available, they will be sold at sky-high prices.
Two hours later, the 20 kilograms of jasmine tea, 10 kilograms of Longjing tea, and 10 kilograms of brown sugar that Lin Sanqi carried were all sold out, and she received 2,200 yuan.
After selling the goods, Lin Sanqi saw that the fish belly was starting to turn white in the east, so he quickly pulled Pan Ye and left the horse temple, a place of right and wrong.
The two of them did not return to the city immediately, but returned to Yuyuantan Park. At this time, there were already old men and ladies who had gotten up early to exercise, so it was safe.
After finding a stone stool and sitting down, Pan Ye couldn't help but asked:
"Lin Sanqi, why don't you exchange food stamps, oil stamps or something? Even if you exchange them for bicycle tickets or watch tickets, what's the use of having so much money now?"
Lin Sanqi glanced at the dark-faced girl and burst out laughing:
"Hurry up and wash yourself in the pond over there. If someone sees your black face, you will be taken away as a lunatic."
"Ah, I almost forgot!!!"
In the past, when Pan Ye came to the black market, he would only sell one thing at a time, so he always came and left while it was dark.
Today, I first met Lin Sanqi, then met a gangster, and then helped sell tea. This was delayed one after another, and it was almost dawn.
After a while, Pan Ye had washed his face and came back coquettishly. It was already dark and he could see people's faces clearly.
When Lin Sanqi saw Pan Ye for the first time, she took a deep breath and was shocked. She thought to herself that this girl was really beautiful. She had a kind of pure beauty that didn't care about people's life and death, which was very similar to her decades ago. A female star later.
So he asked excitedly: "You, are your surname Mao?"
Pan Ye felt baffled, but he still confessed honestly:
"My surname is not Mao, my surname is really Pan, but it's not Pan Hua, it's Pan Ye, Rihua Ye. I'm sorry I lied to you..."
The voice became smaller and smaller as he spoke.
At this time, Lin Sanqi, who looked like a pig, was as excited as if he had met a female star. How could he be surprised?
"What the hell, you're so good-looking, it's dangerous to go out. No wonder you use the ashes from the pot to make yourself look ugly, haha~~~"
One is handsome, the other is pretty, and they are the same age. The two of them have quickly become closer, and there is not much sense of unfamiliarity.
The reason why Pan Ye hasn't left yet is because he is waiting for Lin Sanqi's food, so he can only shamelessly remind:
"Do you still want this self-ringing bell?"
Lin Sanqi slapped her forehead: "If you don't tell me, I almost forgot. If you want what you want, give me the self-ringing bell, and I will give you food when you return to the city. But you have been a guest waiter for me for one night. Come on, I'll treat you to breakfast." Go ahead.”
Pan Ye lowered his head and nodded slightly: "Well..."
