Bu Xiang Dong and Wang Pang Zi each carried him on one shoulder and walked forward.
“Aw, what are you doing, don’t do this.”
“Quiet, we are sworn enemies of the gambling poison.”
“Then what about Huang, Huang won’t do either.”
“Kid, what are you yelling about, don’t worry, we’re not good people.”
The small bucktooth guy was completely flustered.
Over the past few years, the Bu Xiang Dong trio had frequently frequented the black market.
But they only ran errands and acted as lookouts, barely making ends meet.
Now... Bu Xiang Dong also wanted to try his hand at reselling goods.
With the system, he wouldn't lack resources in the future.
Moreover, bulk sales required a channel.
For example, those potatoes and sweet potatoes, he didn't intend to sell them by the pound.
“You two are really short of money, I have a few yuan in my pocket that I can lend you.”
The small bucktooth guy nervously spoke.
“We’re not robbing you.”
“You want to rob me of my chastity? I knew it, I’m young and tender… ”
The fat man almost slapped him, “East brother doesn’t even look at the glamorous widows on Wai Da Jie.”
Bu Xiang Dong had a black line across his face, “Don’t worry, I told you we’re just going to have a good talk.”
The small bucktooth guy almost cursed.
Is this how you talk business?
Bu Xiang Dong said mysteriously, “I have a batch of life-saving supplies.”
“You’re saying you can get life-saving supplies? You two better not be fooling me.”
The small bucktooth guy’s eyes lit up.
Clearly, he had dealt with this before.
“What the hell are you talking about, I, Fat Man, was hanging out in the pigeon market when I was three years old, how could I fool you?”
“Fat Brother, no matter how much you say, if I don’t see it, it’s all meaningless.”
This small bucktooth kid was actually quite slick with his words.
But in the black market, being slick was the key to survival.
Moreover, collaborating with an insider meant no worries about being stabbed in the back or reported.
The ones he knew before, either lacked strength or were too familiar.
Being too familiar in the black market wasn’t a good thing, you could easily be marked.
...................
“You wait!”
The fat man leaned over and whispered, “East brother, we’re about to be exposed!”
“You watch him, I’ll be right back.”
The fat man was full of question marks, did East brother really get life-saving supplies?
The next moment.
The fat man and the small bucktooth guy saw Bu Xiang Dong carrying a sack over.
“A sack of potatoes?”
“Yes! One hundred jin!”
The system opened a lucky bag and got these daily necessities -
Except for food, Bu Xiang Dong planned to sell everything else.
The small bucktooth guy rummaged through the sack and even took one out and took a bite.
“Spit, spit! It’s really potatoes.”
“What else?”
“I thought it was something else.”
The fat man teased, “Haha, do you think raw potatoes taste good?”
The small bucktooth guy’s teeth were a little sore, “Is this the life-saving supplies you mentioned?”
“For people who are starving, isn’t it life-saving supplies?”
“Damn… you’re right!”
“You two, for just some potatoes, why would you go through the trouble of robbing me?”
Potatoes were only a few cents per jin.
What profit could there be?
“What rob you, we’re just testing the waters, Fat Man, this is your job, can you carry it?”
The small bucktooth guy volunteered, “Don’t, I can get a handcart! You two won’t make things difficult for me, right?”
The small bucktooth guy’s father didn’t just resell old stuff.
He would trade anything, from ration coupons, cloth coupons, industrial coupons, food, and eggs.
Bu Xiang Dong whispered to the fat man, “If something’s wrong, we run, don’t take the stuff!”
“Got it, I know all the alleys of Si Jiu Cheng, I’ve been running around since I was three.”
“Stop bragging, be careful!”
In fact, the fat man was full of questions, dragging the sack with him to investigate.
If this deal went through, the fat man would be the main trader, letting him get familiar with it beforehand.
Bu Xiang Dong would have to go to work later, he wouldn’t have the time.
..................
Bu Xiang Dong returned to the courtyard by himself.
He saw a man standing by the side of the road, bent over and leaning against a telephone pole, his figure trembling in the cold wind.
He looked closer and saw that it was the courtyard’s Third Grandpa, Yan Bu Gui.
“Third Grandpa, don’t panic, I’m here.”
Water and electricity are ruthless.
In this era, people were terrified of electricity, most families hadn’t even hooked up electricity yet.
But thinking about doing a good deed, saving a life, this couldn’t be ignored.
So Bu Xiang Dong looked at his Liberation Shoes… they might be insulated, right?
He stood up, rushed forward, and raised his 42-sized shoe sole!
He kicked hard, kicking Yan Bu Gui off balance.
A big footprint was clearly visible on Yan Bu Gui’s butt.
A basket of vegetable leaves beside him spilled all over the ground.
Huh.
Saving a life, Third Grandpa’s reaction was wrong!
Bu Xiang Dong felt a bad omen.
Did Hu Ba say it right, today was a bad day for everything!
Sure enough, the next second, he heard a roar.
Yan Bu Gui turned his head and looked over, his face was dark.
“Bu Xiang Dong!”
“Third Grandpa, it’s me, you’re welcome!”
Yan Bu Gui clenched his fist and gritted his teeth, “Welcome your grandma!”
Bu Xiang Dong chuckled.
But based on the principle that saving a life is better than building seven pagodas, he reminded:
“Even on snowy days, stay away from telephone poles, snow water can conduct electricity.”
“I was shaking my shoes just now, a pebble got inside.”
“You weren’t electrocuted! The weather is nice today. I’m going home now.”
“…”
