Chapter 37 Selling Coal

Hao Jianhong felt very unhappy when he saw her laughing at him like this, but thinking about her words carefully, it was indeed a bit embarrassing.

"What should we do?"

Cadre Liu curled his lips and said, "This matter was originally your idea. You can think of a solution yourself. I can't help you anyway."

Hao Jianhong's eyes darkened, and he sneered in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face.

"I heard that she will be promoted to a full-time job at the end of the month. Oops, she will become a secretary." Cadre Liu looked at her with a half-smile.

"What?" Hao Jianhong looked at Cadre Liu with wide eyes, full of disbelief.

Just that stinky girl? How could she? How could it be possible?

"Keep your voice down!" Officer Liu slapped Hao Jianhong on the back and looked outside, fearing that there would be people passing by.

Hao Jianhong also knew that he had lost his temper, but he could not recover for a while.

"She is just a temporary worker, and she comes from the countryside. How can she be a secretary? What should Secretary Wang do?"

Cadre Liu nodded and sighed: "Who says it's not the case? Secretary Wang is also a college student after all. How come he was pushed over by a girl who graduated from junior high school?"

She looked back at Hao Jianhong, who looked jealous, and said mysteriously: "Tell me, is there someone behind her?"

Hao Jianhong didn't know Li Siyu, but with her academic qualifications and status, it was impossible to be a secretary if she really didn't know anyone.

Officer Liu glanced at the watch on his wrist, patted Hao Jianhong on the shoulder and said: "It's getting late, I have to go back, you can figure it out yourself. If I really take action, I will solve it for you."

Hao Jianhong nodded in confusion, and it took him a while to calm down.

She sighed and said a few words silently.

"I'm leaving anyway, and my niece can come to work. Let's see."

Li Siyu listened to Hao Jianhong's footsteps getting further and further away, and finally understood what was going on.

It turns out that Hao Jianhong wanted his niece to take Li Siyu's place, so he came up with the idea to ruin her reputation.

In this era, a woman's reputation is more important than her life, yet she is so vicious!

Li Siyu bit her lip, she couldn't move now, but Hao Jianhong, she must pay the price!

Although nothing happened to Li Siyu, who can guarantee that she will be fine in the future?

Back in the office, Li Siyu greeted them as usual.

Hao Jianhong was not energetic and ignored her at all.

Li Siyu is not in a hurry. She will work in a mining factory anyway, and there will always be opportunities to deal with her.

After returning to his residence after get off work, Li Siyu boiled hot water and went to take a shower in the space.

It's hard not to take a shower for so many days, but this month's electricity bill will certainly not be reduced.

Sighing, Li Siyu thought about how to get coal. No amount of money would be enough to boil water with electricity.

After her hair was dry, she changed into black clothes, put on new cloth shoes, and put a dark blue scarf on her head.

It's necessary to go out for a walk. This place is so big, there will definitely be a black market.

After locking the door, Li Siyu walked on the path with a basket on her back.

It was already dark by this time, and from time to time I would meet one or two people in a hurry on the road.

After walking for more than an hour, she still couldn't find the so-called black market, which made her want to give up.

At this time, two people not far away were whispering something secretly. One person carrying a big baggage walked into the alley, and the other person continued to stand outside.

Li Siyu looked at it for a while, a little unsure whether this was a black market.

She took a deep breath and walked towards where she was standing guard, carrying the frame on her back.

The man on guard had already noticed her when she walked this way and looked at Li Siyu nervously.

"What are you doing?" the man suddenly said when she was about to approach.

Li Siyu lowered her voice and moved next to him, "Change something."

When the man heard this and saw that she was carrying a frame and covering it with a cloth, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Go in."

Li Siyu was excited, it was indeed a black market!

She nodded and walked slowly into the alley.

When I reached a fork in the road, I saw a lot of people inside.

Li Siyu walked over with the basket on his back and saw several people placing the bags or baskets on the ground and covering them with cloth or sacks.

Li Siyu walked around casually, neither buying nor selling. He just looked at how other people traded and what the price was.

"Comrade, do you have any eggs?"

Li Siyu's clothes were suddenly grabbed by someone, which startled her, but when she heard someone asking her, she didn't dare to say anything.

The man who caught her was also startled when he saw her, and was a little embarrassed.

"I'm sorry for scaring you."

Li Siyu looked back at a man who was taller than her. Because it was dark, she couldn't see the man's face clearly.

"No, I have eggs. Where are we going?" Li Siyu pointed to the entrance of the alley. There were too many people here and she was afraid of being stared at.

When the man heard that Li Siyu's voice was that of a young woman, he was stunned for a moment, then looked in the direction she pointed and nodded.

The two walked to the entrance of the alley in silence. Li Siyu put the basket on the ground and looked up at him.

"How many eggs do you want?"

When the man heard that she had a lot, he said, "Twenty, is there any?"

Li Siyu nodded, "Five cents each."

Just now she saw other people selling eggs, they were only 50 cents, and they were not as big as hers.

The man nodded, "Okay." He took out a cloth bag and ten dollars and handed it to Li Siyu.

Li Siyu checked twenty eggs and handed them to him.

"Comrade, do you know where there is a coal seller?" She suddenly called out to the man.

From the way he was generous, you could tell that his family was in good condition, and the gift he gave her was a big solidarity note, while most people only got change.

Therefore, she was sure that this man must have news or something.

The man heard her words and looked around, thought for a moment and said, "No one sells coal here, but I do."

When Li Siyu heard that there was coal, his eyes lit up, "How to sell it?"

The man took advantage of the moonlight and saw her shining eyes, and couldn't help but froze for a moment.

These eyes are so big...

"Um...in exchange for food."

Li Siyu thought that she just didn't have much money, so it would be good to exchange it with something.

"What's the alternative?"

The two murmured and discussed for a while, and finally exchanged one hundred kilograms of rice for one thousand kilograms of coal.

Li Siyu left the address and asked the person to deliver it tomorrow night. Only one person was allowed to come.

The man looked at Li Siyu's leaving figure with doubts in his heart.

He just wanted to embarrass himself and asked for rice in hope, but he didn't expect that she actually had it.

Thinking of the address reported by the lesbian just now, he didn't understand it, so he could only carry the bag and go home first.

Li Siyu was in a good mood when she returned home. Although it was dangerous to leave her address, there was no other way.
