You can also resell fish. The price of fish is very high in this era, especially live fish, which can be sold for several cents.

Parturients need it to produce milk.

Originally, there were no fish in her manor. When she was in the countryside, she had nothing to do every day, so she tried to catch small fish and put them in the small pond in the manor. What she didn't expect was that the small fish in the pond grew very fast and had strong reproductive ability.

It was also an unexpected surprise for her.

Now the smallest fish in the pond weighs more than one kilogram.

It was already late after harvesting the grain.

The next day, after having breakfast in the manor, Ling Chuchu went downstairs and turned into the alley.

She was not familiar with this place, so she walked around and took a look.

From time to time, we encountered patrolmen wearing red armbands and holding wooden sticks.

They looked around diligently to see if there were any suspicious persons. If they saw people carrying a lot of personal belongings, they would classify them as suspicious persons and would immediately stop and inspect them.

People are very afraid of people wearing red armbands. When they see them, they will subconsciously make way for them and avoid them. Some people will even take the opportunity to run away. However, in the eyes of the red armband personnel, such behavior is a guilty conscience.

Once caught, they will check their ID cards, and then interrogate them and check the personal belongings they carry.

If the personal belongings they carry are just daily necessities, the red armband personnel will at most ask a few questions and then let them go.

If he carried more than ten kilograms of food, and money and receipts that did not match his income were found, he could be convicted after careful investigation and verification.

Ling Chuchu was now extremely grateful that she had a manor, so she did not need to carry anything with her, let alone worry about being stopped and checked.

If she walked on the street without anything, people would think she was just a local who was out for a stroll.

Ling Chuchu did not know where the black market was, and she could not ask passers-by.

In fact, she did not have to go to the black market. She could go to the hospital or factory nearby, but those places were easy to be reported, and the transaction amount was small.

Unlike the black market, there was no need to take the initiative to find target customers. Everyone went to the black market for one purpose, to buy or sell food.

As long as you have goods in your bag wherever you are, everyone will know what you do.

Business will naturally come to you.

In the black market, food can not only be exchanged for money, but also for bicycle tickets, sewing machine tickets and so on.

There are also vendors who specialize in selling tickets.

The profit is not small.

At least one business can make ten yuan.

This time she just wanted to exchange bicycle tickets and sewing machine tickets.

To be honest, she has bicycle sewing machines in her manor, but they are all modern things and cannot be used openly, especially the bicycle, which is the small yellow car she rode to the manor and forgot to return.

It's still early now, and Ling Chuchu is not in a hurry to go to the black market.

The black market also has more people at noon and in the afternoon rush hour.

Actually, she just wants to stroll around.

Ling Chuchu found that supply and marketing cooperatives and state-owned hotels were everywhere in the country at this time.

When she passed by a supply and marketing cooperative, she would go in and take a look.

Supply and marketing cooperatives sell everything, from food to daily necessities to clothes and shoes.

At this time, the counters were almost all made in China, and there were imported items, but very few.

Things were also sold by kilograms and taels.

There were no calculators at this time, and the salespersons still used abacus to calculate.

Although she was a modern person, Ling Chuchu was full of fairy curiosity about the things of this era.

If she saw something she hadn't used before, she couldn't help but buy it.

For example, Seagull shampoo, vanishing cream, etc.

Even if she didn't use it, she would buy it and put it out to show off, so that she looked like someone from the 1970s.

She also bought cigarettes and wine.

She had tea on her estate, which she made herself. It was better than the one sold in the supply and marketing cooperative, so she didn't plan to buy it.

At this time, supply vouchers were needed for cigarettes, wine, and tea.

She happened to have a supply voucher that would expire soon. When she first entered the supply and marketing cooperative, the salesperson thought she was from that unit to purchase.

He happily got the goods for her. If there was not enough wine, he would go to other supply and marketing cooperatives to transfer the goods to her.

Anyway, as long as you have the corresponding voucher, you can buy what you want.

A pack of cigarettes only costs a few cents. If you take it to the black market, the price can at least double.

She has bought everything she needs to buy. She has also asked about the prices of grain, vegetables, fruits, eggs, and fish. It is time to get down to business.

However, as a traitor, she can't do without a wooden beam scale from the 1970s. Every time she does business, she weighs the goods on the manor's kilogram scale before taking them out. People don't want to do business with her because they don't see the goods being weighed.

Sometimes she has to pay more for food to sell the goods.

In this era of coupons, you also need to get a certificate to buy a scale, clearly stating why you need it.

What are you going to do with it after you buy it back?

It's so troublesome.

Where can she get a wooden beam scale?

Ling Chuchu suddenly thought of the scrapyard.

Maybe she could find what she needed at the scrapyard.

Ling Chuchu asked passersby how to get to the scrapyard, and finally found it after many twists and turns.

She couldn't ask directly, so she had to lie and say that she was looking for some books for her younger brother and sister to learn to read.

While talking, she also stuffed a pack of cigarettes into the boss of the scrapyard. It turned out that in this era, cigarettes made things easier.

The boss of the scrapyard agreed immediately, but told her that some things could not be touched.

He let her go in and find them herself, while he was busy sorting the scraps outside.

Ling Chuchu originally came for the wooden scale, but when she saw the high school books, she took the books into the manor while the master was busy with other things.

Before she traveled through time, Ling Chuchu heard that people of this era looked for books at the scrap station.

Now she finally understood why people would choose to look for books at the scrap station. The books at the scrap station, except for some of them being old, were complete and enough to open a bookstore.

The books she took away privately were the books that the master of the scrap station had specifically told her not to touch.

Fearing that she would arouse the suspicion of the master of the scrap station, Ling Chuchu did not dare to stay here for too long. She found the wooden scale, but she didn't know whether it was accurate. Anyway, she put it away because it looked 80% new.

When she left, she held a stack of newspapers and a few books in her hands.

The old man at the scrap station checked them and returned them to her if there was no problem.

Before Ling Chuchu left, she took out ten yuan from her pocket and a few food coupons that would expire next month and handed them to the old man at the scrap station.

The old man at the scrap station was stunned. He never thought that she just found a few books from him. It was not enough to give him cigarettes. She also wanted to give him money and tickets before leaving.

"Little comrade, you have already given me a pack of cigarettes. I absolutely cannot accept this money and tickets." He was about to return them to her.

"Grandpa, take it. This is the reward I give you for the things I got from you."

Ling Chuchu would not accept it. She did not need to buy food, so of course she did not need food coupons. The food coupons that were about to expire were equivalent to waste coupons in her hands. The ten yuan was the money for her to buy books and scales.

The old man could not refuse it, so he took it.

Watching her back gradually going away, the old man opened the food coupons with trembling hands. Among them were three five-jin fine food coupons and one two-jin meat coupon, which would expire next month.

These money and coupons were a timely rain to save his life.

With these food coupons and ten yuan, they don't have to worry about their grandson going hungry with them.

Ling Chuchu took the opportunity to go to the toilet and put the things she bought into the manor.

This time she didn't want to take risks near the hospital and the factory. She just took a walk and found that red armbands would pass by the factories and hospitals from time to time.

Going there would be like giving away your life.

Ling Chuchu followed a middle-aged woman who was carrying a basket of vegetables in one hand and a four or five-year-old child in the other hand. When they arrived at a place, she was sure at a glance that this was the so-called black market.

She found an opportunity to take out a wooden scale from the manor.

And more than 30 fish.

However, she couldn't lift the more than 30 fish, the barrel and the water.

Ling Chuchu didn't even see the face of the passing young man, and grabbed him.

"Comrade, help me move this to there, I'll pay you fifty cents."

The young man immediately agreed when he heard that there was such a good thing.

Ling Chuchu took out a stack of money, took out fifty cents and handed it to him.

The young man took the money but didn't mean to leave.

Ling Chuchu then saw the young man's face clearly, dark and childish, it turned out that she had summoned an underage boy.

Seeing that he didn't mean to leave, Ling Chuchu asked: "What's wrong, is there anything else?"

The young man didn't say anything, just stared at the fish with his eyes.

Ling Chuchu suddenly realized. "Oh, so you want fish?"

The young man still didn't speak.

He didn't have fish rolls, but he wanted to buy fish, which was simply a daydream.

But when he thought about it, his mother had just given birth to a sister and needed nutrition, even if the other party was angry, he had to try to speak.

"Can you sell me your fish?" Before the other party replied, he continued: "I don't have fish rolls."

Ling Chuchu smiled.

"Buy fish from me without fish rolls. Considering that you just helped me a lot, I'll give you one."

The young man was stunned for a while, and he couldn't believe his ears.

"Is this true?"

"Of course."

Ling Chuchu took a fish out of the barrel and asked him, "Do you want to take it back alive or dead?"

"Live fish jumping around can easily cause unnecessary trouble."

Ling Chuchu: "..."

If she had known, she wouldn't have asked. Now she has to knock the fish unconscious.

She picked up the stone, but didn't know how to start. That's right, she hasn't eaten fish until now because she can't bring herself to kill it.

When cooking fish in modern times, she also bought live fish in the market, and the boss knocked it unconscious and removed the dirt.

What should I do? It seems that she can't do this.

The young man seemed to see her timidity.

"Are you scared?"

Ling Chuchu: "..."

The young man said again: "How can you sell fish if you are scared?"

"Smash it yourself." Ling Chuchu handed the stone to him.

The young man took the stone decisively and smashed the fish.

Ling Chuchu swallowed his saliva.

Boys are born with a fierceness that women don't have.

"Wait a minute!" Seeing that the young man took the fish and was about to leave, Ling Chuchu hurriedly stopped him.

"Are you going to regret it?" The young man subconsciously hid the fish behind his back.
