Chapter 16 Han City

The train roared all night and arrived at Hanshi Station just before dawn.

Ye Qian arranged her clothes and followed the crowd out of the train station.

There was a state-run hotel not far from the station. Ye Qian walked in, took out a letter of introduction and asked for a single room. She paid a dollar for the room and followed the front desk clerk upstairs.

After closing the door, Ye Qian lay down directly and exhaled softly, finally able to rest.

Ye Qian didn't sleep all night last night. She went out alone, surrounded by strangers. How could she dare to sleep? Now she finally had a decent place where she could have a good sleep.

After lying down, Ye Qian fell asleep soon after. She slept until about 4 o'clock in the afternoon. She got up and washed up before entering the space.

Ye Qian came to Han City this time to get familiar with the environment here first, and also wanted to buy some things, which required money and tickets. She still had three thousand yuan in cash, but she didn't have a lot of tickets, so

You need to go to the black market and exchange some money and tickets.

After entering the space, Ye Qian began to organize supplies. The living conditions here are good and everyone has money. Forget about coarse grains, prepare some fine grains and scarce supplies.

First soak the canned food in the space, including canned meat, canned fish, and canned fruit.

Then he started to pack rice, millet, white noodles, dried noodles, red beans, mung beans and wrapped some brown sugar, white sugar, rock sugar and honey.

After hesitating for a while, I took out some milk powder and some fat meat from the pork (I don’t like fat meat).

After these are prepared, clean the cans that were soaked before. The logos on the outside of the cans are paper stickers and can be wiped off after soaking in water. However, there are many of them, and it is already past 6pm when I finish them.

Ye Qian went downstairs and checked out of the room. She was going to stay here for a few days and stayed in the state-owned hotel next to the station. It was too troublesome to run back and forth. Then she could just find another place to stay.

After leaving the state-owned hotel, Ye Qian found a deserted place and took out the bicycle she had put in the space. She had ridden the bicycle 2-3 times and it was still as good as new.

Ye Qian did not forget to tie a scarf, put on a pair of gloves, and button up her military coat. In this way, she was fully equipped and she was not cold at all after riding the bicycle.



In the 1960s, the architecture of Han City was more prosperous than that of Xiao City.

The road surface was also newly paved and very smooth, so you didn’t feel any bumps when riding the bike.

There is a state-owned hotel not far ahead. It is a three-story building. The first and second floors are the lobby with many people, and the third floor is all private rooms.

The restaurant was very lively, almost everywhere as far as the naked eye could see was full of people, and there were a wide variety of dishes.

Ye Qian approached the waiter and ordered a portion of rock sugar elbow, stir-fried shredded radish, and a portion of rice as a staple food. After paying the money and ticket, she found a place to sit down.

Ye Qian was worried before that the prices in Han City would be higher, but after ordering, she realized that the prices were the same.

The food here is served very quickly, and because the place is large, a waiter will bring the food after you order it.

The fragrant pork elbow, sauce-colored skin, and thick soup are all mouth-watering.

Before using chopsticks, the waiter brought shredded radish and rice.

Ye Qian, who had been hungry all day, took a spoonful of the elbow soup and mixed it into the rice without caring about her image.

After just one bite, I can't stop eating it.

Although Ye Qian could eat, she couldn't compete with the portions in today's state-owned restaurants. She took out the lunch box in her small satchel, packed the remaining dishes, and walked out of the state-owned hotel.



Ye Qian was from Han City in her previous life, so naturally she heard her grandparents mention things about their youth, including the black market.

The black market was not far from where I used to live, so whenever I walked with my grandparents after dinner and passed by this place, I would talk about it.

When I rode my bicycle to the black market, it was already very late.

Ye Qian walked to a deserted place and put her bicycle into the space. She also went into the space and put on a wig, put on makeup, changed clothes, and then took out her small backpack, and of course all the supplies.

It's packed inside.

The black market here is a little different from what I saw before.

Everyone gathered together, took out their supplies, and sold them like street vendors at a night market.

He also walked over, found a corner and sat down, picked up a corner of the basket, and took out the noodles and rice placed inside.

As soon as I took it out, it attracted other people's attention.

There is no way, even though life here is better, we still can't afford to be out of stock.

This is a fine grain, and it’s really hard to come across it now.

Before the things were laid out, someone asked, "How can I sell these noodles?"

"Two yuan and a half a catty, take 5 taels of food stamps." The price is indeed more expensive than what is sold in Xiaoshi, but isn't there less people in Xiaoshi? There are so many people here, if you don't buy it, there will always be someone who does, so don't take advantage of it now

If the price starts from the ground up, how long will it take?

After the price was discussed, some people did leave, but more people stayed to buy.

Ye Qian's backpack is small, and she can't keep taking things out. After her backpack is empty, she runs out, finds a place where no one is around, puts things into the backpack, and takes a breather, and then gets something else.

Come in and sell.

I ran back and forth 5-6 times like this. After all the supplies I had prepared in the space were sold out, I quickly left the black market.

Not far away, Ye Qian found someone following her. Ye Qian guessed that this person was jealous that she had made so much money and wanted to rob him. After all, it was obvious to everyone that her business was good. Everyone watched her collect money, and then

You can't hide it.

I hurriedly hid in a space around a corner. The man would leave soon after he couldn't find me.

Ye Qian was not in a hurry. It was getting very late and she had no intention of going out again. It was not easy to explain a woman looking for a hotel so late at night.

Ye Qian first took off her makeup and changed her clothes in the space, and then started counting money. She earned more than 1,700 and several tickets during this trip.

These are enough for shopping by yourself.

I just slept in my own space, and the tent was still the same one I had set up before.

Ye Qian felt hungry as soon as she lay down. She had run several times and had already digested her dinner. After thinking about it, she decided to eat when she was hungry, so she ate another midnight snack.

A bowl of beef offal, a whole chicken, a bag of French fries, and a cup of milk tea.

Ye Qian, who went to bed after eating, felt extremely happy.



Ye Qian remembered that she found a random corner and hid in the space yesterday. She was afraid that someone would see her when she came out of the space, so she got up early on purpose.

Breakfast was still at the state-owned restaurant, and I ordered soy milk, fried dough sticks, and steamed buns.
