Sheng Yujin touched her cheek with the tip of her tongue and laughed dumbly: "This is really the first time. But I have an acquaintance working in the black market."
Xu Yin was heartbroken: Let's just say, there is no guide, and you can't even find the door to the black market, how can you take action when you want to?
Now that he had a way, Xu Yin no longer planned to sell cheap agricultural and sideline products, and directly produced a pair of plum blossom-shaped pure gold earrings.
A pair of two, a total of 3.5 grams.
The current price of gold is only 20 yuan per gram, and it is even less than 20 yuan on the black market. But no matter how hard you keep the price down, you should be able to sell a pair of earrings for 50 or 60 yuan.
"My grandma left it to me. She loves me the most." Xu Yin rubbed the pair of deliberately distressed gold earrings in her hands and explained without changing her expression, "I am the only one who has four brothers and sisters, so the rest of my family
I don’t even know, but now my family is in urgent need of money, and I won’t be able to find a way to raise money for a while, so I have to sell it. Grandma knows better, so she won’t blame me.”
This is pure nonsense.
The original grandmother passed away due to illness at the beginning of last year. The treatment she received during her lifetime could not be said to be bad, but it could not be said to be good either. The older generation tended to favor boys over girls. The original grandmother was no exception.
If Grandma Xu really had a pair of gold earrings, it would be too late to give them to her two grandsons. How could she give them to her granddaughter?
But since everyone is gone, who should I confront? Of course, she has the final say.
"Do you have anything else to do?" Xu Yin wrapped the earrings in an embroidered handkerchief and handed them to him. "It's wasting your time. If you can, just do it. If no one wants it, forget it. I know what's going on right now.
In the new year, many people don’t have enough to eat, so there is little market for jewelry.”
In fact, the best market is for her to disguise herself and go to the black market to sell high-quality, oily, rice and noodles at low prices. There is definitely a market for this.
But firstly, he refused to tell her where the black market was, and secondly, she had to go back to the breeding farm to work, and it was really inconvenient to go to and from the city to ship goods. She could only try to see if there was a market for gold earrings first.
Sheng Yujin took the handkerchief and glanced at her with a half-smile: "You can trust me so much? You can give me such a valuable thing as long as you say it?"
Xu Yin met his teasing smile: "..."
This is indeed a bug.
She was sure that he would not bully her, lie to her, or harm her. However, to him, she was just a stranger who took a ride with her once.
What to do now?
Headache!
Sheng Yujin chuckled and took off the brand new watch on her wrist: "My family gave it to me. I just put it on this morning. I'll keep it with you first."
Without waiting for Xu Yin to refuse, he stuffed it into her hand, then straddled his long legs, got into the car handsomely, and said to her: "Come up."
"Eh?"
Only then did Xu Yin realize that the two of them were walking and talking, and they were already far away from the tram stop just now.
"I'll take you to the next platform."
Sheng Yujin did have something else to do, otherwise she wouldn't have gone out so early.
He drove Xu Yin to the next stop of the No. 9 tram, waited for her to get on the bus, and then rode away.
When we arrived at our second hometown, it was more than half an hour later than expected.
Mr. Sheng looked at him with a smile and said, "I heard that your brother came back from a business trip yesterday and gave you a watch. What? You went to bed late because you were so excited? So you got up late?"
"Grandpa." Sheng Yujin let the old man tease her, parked the car without changing her expression, and stepped forward to help the old man back to the house, "Something delayed me on the way."
"Where's the watch? Did you bring it? Let me take a look. I heard your brother boasting that only one or two hundred pieces were produced in the country. He asked several people to get one. Let me take a look.
How strange..."
Sheng Yujin's body was slightly stiff, her watch? She had just been escorted out.
But does he dare to tell the truth?
"I was in a hurry to go out and forgot to wear it."
Mr. Sheng looked at him suspiciously several times, why was he so unbelieving?
"Last year, when you first joined the driving team, Yu Xi gave you the bicycle outside your door. You were so excited that you rode it up early in the morning to show me. This watch is newer than the bicycle. How could you forget to wear it? No
Could it be that you lost it as soon as you got it?"
"How is it possible? I really forgot. I'll bring it to you next time." Sheng Yujin helped the old man sit down and made tea for him. "But you, why did you insist on me coming here so early in the morning? Where is grandma?
?”
"She went to the exchange meeting with other old ladies in the courtyard. She said she wanted to see if there were any red festive quilt covers and prepare them in advance to save them for your wedding."
Sheng Yujin raised her head: "Grandpa..."
"Hahaha! These are your grandma's exact words. I didn't mean to make fun of you. But it's time to think about your life-long events. Your parents are busy with work and are in Yanjing all year round. They can't see each other more than once a year.
By the time they worry about it, the day lilies will be cold. It was your aunt who helped arrange your brother's marriage."
"I'm in no hurry."
"You are not in a hurry, I am! I still want to wait to hold my great-grandson."
"It's not my turn. My brother has been married for two years and has no children. You should find him."
"Your brother is your brother, and you are you." Mr. Sheng glared.
Neither of my two grandchildren makes me worry.
The eldest grandson is getting married, but there has been no news for a long time. They are grandparents, and they are separated by a generation, so they can't be reminded every day.
Little grandson...
Mr. Sheng thought of the purpose of looking for his grandson today and got back to the topic:
"Do you remember my old subordinate Wang Youkang? His brother-in-law's daughter has just turned eighteen and is currently working in the factory office of your second factory. There are several brothers in the family, but she is the only girl. She has been favored since she was a child, but
I heard from your Uncle Wang that you have a pretty good temperament, you are not crooked at all, and you are quite good-looking..."
When Sheng Yujin heard the word "aura", for some reason, Xu Yin's beautiful face and willow-like waist flashed in her mind, and she couldn't help but be distracted.
It wasn't until the old man called him several times that he finally realized: "Grandpa, what did you say?"
Mr. Sheng narrowed his eyes and glanced at him several times: "I've been talking for a long time, but you didn't listen to anything? Are you distracted?"
"Ahem, I suddenly remembered something I forgot to do. I have to drive out of town tomorrow. Grandpa, if I have nothing else to do, I'll leave first." After Sheng Yujin finished speaking, she wanted to run away.
"Why do we have to go back and deal with it now?" Sheng Lao grabbed him.
Want to get away with it? No way! Don't even think about what he did before retiring - he specialized in doing ideological work for people, and even the slightest expression on his face could not escape his sharp eyes.
"Sit down! Your grandma will be back soon. She has met the girl. Ask her to tell you more about the girl..."
Sheng Yujin looked helpless: "Grandpa!"
Mr. Sheng snorted proudly: "You guys still want to try to hide the truth from me? You can tell by your face, don't hide it, tell the truth."
"What are you telling me? Xiaojin has a partner?" Grandma Sheng came back from outside, "Which family is the girl from? How old is she this year? Where does she live?"
