Chapter 98 Encounter verification(1/2)

 In cities of this era, residents usually slept very early.

Since everyone has no TV or radio at home, there is no entertainment for everyone except to work hard to create people.

In this era where there are no cars, motorcycles, bicycles, and only community speakers broadcast, and they will be broadcast regularly for an hour and a half, it is really quiet at night.

Apart from the children playing under the street lights, the streets are empty and there is no such noise and prosperity as later generations.

After Luo Xuan washed his feet, he went to bed early.

I don’t know how long I slept, but I heard the door of the room “Tu tuk, tuk…Tu tuk, tuk” and a very rhythmic knock sounded again.

Luo Xuan was awakened by the sound in his sleep, lifted the quilt and shouted impatiently, "There is no business here, stop making noise! ​​I'm asleep!"

The knock on the door stopped immediately.

Hearing the footsteps outside the door walking away, Luo Xuan pulled out the light and got up to go to the door to check the situation carefully.

The latch on the door was still intact, but a note was stuffed into the crack of the door under the door.

Picking up the note, Luo Xuan carefully identified the words on the note in the dim light.

I saw it read: [If you have the goods and want to take them off, wait for me at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning in Radish Lane, under the fifth street light.]

There is no signature under this note, which makes people feel a little puzzled.

But based on the analysis of the situation of Quan Mouse from the hotel owner today, Luo Xuan guessed that this note was most likely sent by Quan Mouse!

After carefully checking the doors and windows again, Luo Xuan turned back to the bed and continued to sleep soundly.

Wait until the early morning of the next day.

Before dawn, Luo Xuan got up and took out the anglerfish from the space, put them in a bamboo basket.

Then he carried two bamboo tubes and walked towards the Qingxi River Bridge.

Just walked out of the hotel alley.

Luo Xuan saw two people wearing blue clothes and red armbands standing under the street lights, smoking and chatting without doing anything.

Since the other party had seen him, Luo Xuan did not dodge, but carried the load calmly and walked towards him.

"stop."

One of the patrol team members reached out to Luo Xuan and shouted, "I went out so early? What are you doing?"

Luo Xuan patted the burden on his shoulder: "Go to the river to release fish fry."

"Release fish fry?"

The two patrol team members were stunned!

Then he stepped forward and untied the straw rope, pulled off the banana leaves from the nanmu bamboo tube, and looked into the bamboo tube with his head.

The street lights at this time are a little more voltage, so they are brighter than at night, but the light is still very weak.

These two patrol team members did not have flashlights either.

So they could only vaguely see that there were indeed some small fish swimming inside the bamboo tube.

But I can't see clearly.

A patrol team member even caught an anglerfish and observed it carefully.

Looking left and right, he couldn't see any name.

But when he saw that the fish was indeed very small, he turned his head to his companion beside him and said, "Is this kid really going to release fish fry?"

Luo Xuan took the little fish out early in the morning. According to the general guess of the two patrol team members: Luo Xuan is planning to go to the market by the river to sell fish!

As for what Luo Xuan said about "release animals", there are actually such things.

After all, some Buddhist families will sneak to the river to release animals to pray for their families.

When they saw that the little fish in the bamboo tube did not look like they could sell money, the two of them believed Luo Xuan's words.

Since there is no problem with the goods.

So one of the patrol team members raised their heads and said to Luo Xuan: "Which street are you a resident?"

Luo Xuan replied: "I came from Hongxing Township."

The patrol team asked again: "Do you have travel certificate?"

Luo Xuan reached out and took out the certificate from his pocket and handed it over.

The patrol team took the street light and carefully looked at the contents on the certificate, then handed the certificate back to Luo Xuan, "It's okay, you go."

Luo Xuan smiled at the two patrol team members, then took up the burden and left.

The trading market in the county is different from the frog market in Hongxing Township. It is relatively fixed and opens every morning.

Carrying the load, Luo rolled up the embankment of Qingxi River.

In the shelterbelts by the river, there are many locust trees, pine trees and other trees, and there are also many green plants such as evergreen, peaches, and gardenias.

With these small bushes that are one person tall, it is very convenient for buyers and sellers to come to the market to hide their bodies.

If you encounter a patrol team and come to arrest people, these bushes will make it easier for everyone to escape.

only,

The patrol team generally won't do this unless the market is too overdoing.

Otherwise, the patrol team would not have come to smash everyone's convenience door.

The county has tens of thousands of people, and the market size here is not comparable to that of Hongxing Township.

In this market with many channels, there are many places that are remote and basically no one passes by.

Luo Xuan deliberately picked up a remote place, then next to a small bush, and then put down the burden on his shoulders.

While there was no one on the left and right, Luo Xuan flashed into the space and used the sacks he had placed in the space to put two sacks of sweet potatoes out.

Anyway, in the county's trading market, there are people from more than 20 towns. Everyone has a complicated source and no one knows anyone.

If this is placed on the frog market in Hongxing Township, I will never dare to sell the sweet potatoes...

There are many units in the county town and many industrial and mining enterprises.

There are also many people who come to purchase various materials.

There are various materials on the market and the sources are quite diverse, so Luo Xuan dared to take out the sweet potatoes and try it out.

Although it is not the season for digging sweet potatoes, it is not clear which mountain they have good storage of sweet potatoes, or they excavated early?

So Luo Xuan wanted to try it out and see if he could sell some sweet potatoes.

Put the sweet potatoes two or three meters away from him, then Luo Xuan guarded the two bamboo tubes and focused on waiting for customers to come and buy his antler fish.

The reason why I put the sweet potatoes farther was to prevent Liu Fugui from suddenly coming out to find him.

In case such a situation occurs, Luo Xuan can pretend that the sweet potatoes are not his own goods.

After just squatting beside the bamboo tube for a while, a figure walked to Luo Xuan and whispered: "Torch, two hairs."

turn out to be,

The woods were pitch black, and everyone who came to sell things needed to buy a torch from the "alternative managers" in the market.

If not.

Those who sell things will be expelled from the market by these "managers" and will not be allowed to come in and trade.

Luo Xuan took out two cents and handed them to the other party.

After the other party collected the money, he pulled out a bamboo pole from a large pocket and lit it with a match.

It turned out that this was a bamboo pole soaked in diesel.

This is much better than the bamboo torch I used when I caught eels before.

With the faint lighting of bamboo torches, those who came to buy things knew that there were people selling goods here and could see clearly what was being sold here.

Luo Xuan first inserted the torch next to the sack containing sweet potatoes, and hid next to the Nanzhu tube several meters away.

This way.

If Liu Fugui suddenly came to find him, Luo Xuan would have made excuses that he didn't understand the rules here and did not buy a torch.

At that time, Liu Fugui would naturally go to find someone to buy a torch so that the two of them could sell anglersfish.

Luo Xuan just inserted the torch to the side of the sweet potato.

After a while.

A man and a woman walked up and looked at the sweet potatoes in the sack with the help of the faint light of the torch.

Only when I heard the woman among them, she let out a low scream: "Huh? Section Chief Zhao, come and see! Why are there sweet potatoes now? And why is this sweet potato so big?"

The man named Section Chief Zhao stepped forward and picked up a sweet potato that was 5 or 6 kilograms in size and took a closer look.

Then he asked, "Whose is this?"

Luo Xuan looked around carefully and did not see Liu Fugui.
