I have a fiancée in Siheyuan

Chapter 172 Pigeon Market



Chapter 172 Pigeon Market

"You can't enter here." Bai Baoshan, who was about to enter, was stopped outside the door.

Bai Baoshan glanced at the sturdy man and said, "I want to buy something."

"Go to the street to buy things. We don't have what you want here."

"I bought a lot." Bai Baoshan showed the cloth bag in his arms and opened a hole. There were several thick stacks of ten-yuan bills inside, which amounted to at least three to five thousand yuan.

"You wait." The sturdy man answered, walked into the door, and whispered a few words to a middle-aged man inside.

The middle-aged man nodded.

"Come in and behave yourself." The sturdy man said, and stood next to Bai Baoshan.

"Would you like some tea, little brother?"

"Sir, please come in. I won't drink the tea. Your eyes are really sharp. Even though I'm in this state, you can still tell that I'm a young man. I admire you." Bai Baoshan bowed.

"Haha, I make a living from this. My eyesight is not good, so I might have died a long time ago.

We are all straightforward people, so let's not beat around the bush, what do you want to buy, little brother?"

"Gold."

"Oh? Haha, are you... leaving?" The middle-aged man looked Bai Baoshan up and down and immediately understood.

"Almost. There is not much food at home and we are hungry every day. I heard there is a way in the south, so I plan to go there with my family to try it out."

The middle-aged man looked at Bai Baoshan for a few times, nodded, and seemed to think about it, "Recently, there are a lot of people who are like you.

Since the young man found this place directly, it was obvious that someone had directed him here.

Let’s not play games, how much do you want?”

"Excuse me, sir, what is the price now?"

“The government charges 240 for one ounce of gold. This is a clearly marked price. You can go and ask.

But they only go in and not out.

I charge 280 yuan per tael, no cheating, no matter who comes."

Bai Baoshan thought about it and nodded. "It makes sense."

“Haha…I wonder how much you want, little brother?

Don't worry, they are all from the Central Bank of the Republic of China. I have 10 taels, 5 taels, and 1 tael. Don't worry, there are no fakes here. I have as many as you want. If you have too many, I can find someone to buy them for you. If anything I sell is fake, I will compensate you."

"Okay, I believe this gentleman.

我要3条10两,3条5两,还有5条一两。

A total of 50 taels. "

"Great, Seventeen, bring the goods."

A young man appeared at the back door at some point. After hearing what the middle-aged man said, he nodded, lifted the door curtain and walked towards the backyard.

After a while, the things were brought over.

Bai Baoshan took a look, scanned it with his mental power, and nodded. Yes, it was the real thing.

He picked up the bag in front of him and took out money from it.

A total of 100 were taken out. "Sir, please check it."

"Haha...you are so straightforward, little brother. But please forgive me for being frank. Your stuff won't be of much use over there. It's too little."

"My family has been thinking about selling the house recently. We still have three to five million. I'll have to trouble you when the time comes."

"Okay, okay. If you need me, just come over."

50 taels was not that heavy, so Bai Baoshan simply wrapped it up in his original bag.

The work was done and it seemed to have gone extremely smoothly, but Bai Baoshan was still a little uncomfortable with it.

He bowed to the middle-aged man.

Turned around and walked out the door.

"Mr. Dong, do you want to check it out?" the young man leaned over and asked.

"No, if he needs it, he will come back to us. He is a small family. Even if you find him, what can you do? If someone finds out, it will affect our reputation."

"Mr. Dong is right." The sturdy man stood outside the door again.

Bai Baoshan came out from the north gate, crossed the moat and entered the city, and randomly entered an alley.

I found a deserted yard and went in to change my clothes.

After waiting for a long time, no one came. It was obvious that this person was trustworthy.

I have very little money left.

Yi Zhonghai's money, plus the spoils from more than 30 families, totaled more than 15,000 yuan.

There are a few hundred dollars left in the space as pocket money.

And this time, Yi Zhonghai's money was mixed with those money and then re-bundled.

Unless they check them one by one.

Fifty taels of gold may be dispensable to Bai Baoshan, but it is at least an income.

It looks like 50 taels, but this weight is the weight in the Republic of China. One catty is 16 taels, and one tael is 31.25 grams.

50 taels is a total of 1562.5 grams, just over three pounds.

I took out my bike, got on it and rode away, found a main road, and when I got out of the intersection, I realized where I was.

Turn onto the main street and arrive at the Dongdan Vegetable Market.

The vegetable market was even more depressed. Bai Baoshan had not issued any meat coupons since the Chinese New Year. The workers said that they only issued meat coupons once, during the Chinese New Year.

Ok.

Just be low-key when eating meat recently.

If you want to buy meat, there must be a market.

The butcher's stall is covered in dust. I guess he hasn't been here for a while.

There were people at the stall selling chickens, ducks and fish, but there were only a few bald roosters and hens huddled together.

Hey.

I bought some fish here, including a few palm-sized carps and crucian carps.

Bai Baoshan was not going to go shopping anymore. When he arrived at the seed store, Brother Hou was not there. He asked the clerk and found out that he had been transferred.

Ok.

There is no tofu here, and no bean sprouts either.

After a round of shopping, Bai Baoshan didn't buy anything.

When I got home, Qiao Yun was not at home.

He must have gone to a classmate's house and didn't come back.

I looked at the watch. It was 2:35.

There was some covered rice on the table, probably because they had finished their meal and left.

Not hungry at all.

I don't have anything to do at home.

Do you want to go for a stroll?

But I saw the fishing rod behind the door that I had used once before.

Hey, let's go fishing.

Maybe I can meet a big boss, sell the fish to him, and then become rich and powerful, hehe...

Just do it.

Enter the space and stir up a small group of earthworms.

Put it in a small box.

I took the bucket and checked the fishing rod, it was fine.

Still very resilient.

walking.

Push the cart out again.

The bucket is placed in the basket.

A single basket is like this, and a double basket has a bamboo basket on both sides.

This is a double basket.

There is no one in the yard at this time.

Either he stays at home or he runs out to find food.

It only takes 10 minutes by bike to reach Beihai.

Qianhai is full.

After walking around for a while, I found a similar position in a corner.

Fortunately, there is no one here.

Bai Baoshan locked the car.

He carried the bucket and went down the river bank.

This place is about ten meters away from where other people are fishing.

Others may despise him, but Bai Baoshan doesn’t.

I mixed some corn flour with water and found a good place to throw it over.

Two meters ahead, Bai Baoshan can control it.

Same as everyone else.

He dug out two bricks from the bushes, stacked them up, and sat down on them.

Hang a worm on the fishhook and cast it loose with ease.

Wait for the fish to come.

But after waiting for a long time, only fish fry the size of a little finger came over to eat the cornmeal thrown down, and there were no fish at all.

As far as I could see, no one was making a pinky promise.

Is it too high-profile to pull it up right after the hook is set?

Bai Baoshan waited for another 20 minutes, pulled it up, and found that the earthworms had turned white. He changed a new piece of earthworm, threw the hook out, and continued to wait.

Waited for more than 10 minutes, damn it.

Are there any fish on the ground?

However, I saw that someone did catch a fish, but the fish was probably only as long as a hand.

Bai Baoshan thought about it and decided that there wasn’t anything that big, so he just used 1 jin to light the fire.

In fact, apart from the fish head and tail, there is almost no meat left.

But I don't mind.

With a loud noise, Bai Baoshan hung it on the hook and pulled it out.

Bai Baoshan suddenly felt countless eyes staring towards him.

I ignored them, replaced the earthworm and continued waiting. After waiting for another ten minutes, I caught another one of similar size.

Bai Baoshan estimated that half of the people living near the river saw the heavy feeling and the sound of water coming out when he pulled hard.

At this time, several old men ran over here.

When they saw the two firefish being caught, they couldn't stop clicking their tongues.

Seeing that Bai Baoshan used earthworms, I didn't say anything.

The thing that Huotou loves to eat the most is meat.

No wonder it can be fished out.

It takes a lot of effort to get earthworms out in this weather.

Some wanted to ask for two earthworms, but they couldn't open their mouths.

The main thing is that there are only 3 left in the Baibaoshan box.

At first Bai Baoshan was careless. When he got here he saw that no one was using earthworms, or if they did, there were only a few. So he collected all the earthworms in the box and left only a few.

I hung it up, but no one took the bait for a long time.

Finally, the float shook and then sank suddenly.

Bai Baoshan immediately pulled the hook, but it was too late. He sighed with great regret, quickly put the hook on, and threw it back to the original place. Within two minutes, the float shook again and sank to the bottom. Bai Baoshan immediately pulled the hook.

It was empty again.

The earthworms are gone again.

There was only one string left. After thinking about it, I didn't cut it off and just hung it up. Everyone else felt a toothache when they saw it.

These two hooks also attracted the attention of a group of people.

As expected, the fish hook disappeared again this time, and when it was pulled up, there was nothing on the hook.

I looked at the box helplessly, and found that there were no earthworms left. I walked away with the bucket. Not bad, I "caught" two fish.

Bai Baoshan felt that he could get 108 points for showing off this time.

Because he thinks he is more handsome than Bond.

Bai Baoshan wanted to leave, and of course no one stopped him. Several people pushed away those who didn't want to move away, so that Bai Baoshan could leave quickly.

When Bai Baoshan got ashore and looked back, he saw that there were no less than five fish hooks in that area.

He shook his head, got on his bike and left.
