Chapter 471 A few people died, a convenient thing

As soon as Yan Wanbin left, Bai Jie followed him into the classroom, and everyone immediately came back to their senses and started class.

Time flies and it's time to end the get out of class again.

Everyone went home.

"I almost forgot. It's been almost half a month since the last time I sold grain. It's time to go over there."

After saying goodbye to Jin Jianxian and Yu Xingmei, Li Kailang changed his clothes and went to the black market again to find Lao Hei.

This is why Li Kailang doesn't want to come here regularly. Coming at a fixed time would be like going to work, and there would be no freedom at all.

This method is still the best. You can come here whenever you remember it. No need to come here specially.

After all, I can come three times a week.

Tuesday, Friday, Saturday, come whenever you are free.

"That's great, I finally got you here. I don't have much stock left." Lao Hei warmly welcomed the familiar figure as soon as he saw him.

"Little brother, can you sell me a little more this time? The price is negotiable, a little higher is fine, just give me more, okay?"

"How much do you want?"

"Not much, not much, just give me 1 kilograms?"

Li Kailang refused outright: "No, I don't have that much, just 500 kilograms, no more."

Wow, he asked to double the price right away. Fortunately, he has planting space, so he can take out as many kilograms as he wants at once.

If the grain station wanted to resell the grain, they would not dare to release so much grain at once as it would be easy to be discovered.

"Don't worry, little brother, can we discuss something? Price is not a problem, you can add a little more."

"I don't have that much food. Even if I did, I wouldn't sell it to you. This quantity is really too much. If I gave it to you, what would I do?"

Speak the truth to real people and lies to ghosts. You cannot deny the truth even if it exists.

"Don't worry, we are already so familiar with each other." Lao Hei insisted, he really wanted it.

On the one hand, they really had no surplus food, and on the other hand, Li Kailang's price was cheap. Last time they thought about it, they decided to just buy more and store them up, as they could make the most of the rare goods.

Li Kailang said honestly: "To be honest, Lao Hei, I don't really need this little money. I just want to find a way to make money steadily and long-term."

"If you don't do it, there are plenty of people who will. There are only 500 kilograms of grain. If you don't do it, I'll find someone else to do it. It's about making money. It doesn't matter who you make money from."

Upon hearing this, Lao Hei became anxious and quickly responded, "No, no, no, 500 is 500, it's better than nothing."

In ten days or half a month, only 500 kilograms of grain flow into the market, just like a stone falling into the lake, it will not cause much ripples.

But if it is 1 kilograms, that would be a lot. Li Kailang just wants to make money steadily and quietly, not a one-time deal.

500 kilograms of food can be said to be gathered together in a day by scraping together bits and pieces from here and there, but 1 kilograms is not something that can be gathered together easily. There must be a big part.

"It's still the same old rules." Li Kailang nodded. He didn't want to lose Lao Hei as a buyer. After all, this store was the most low-key one.

Lao Hei nodded: "Old rules, I understand."

After the transaction, Li Kailang got 2 more small yellow croakers and 600 yuan. It was a lot less than the last time when he got 5 small yellow croakers, but this was normal.

Gold is still rare, and Lao Hei and his friends don't want to trade too much gold.

Li Kailang took the money and left, but on the way he thought: "Old Black and the others still want food. It seems that there is still demand in the market. I will go to other black markets to open up new channels tomorrow."

"It's a good opportunity to share some of the pressure here."

Thinking of this, Li Kailang decided to go to another black market to open up a new market tomorrow night.

the next day.

Early in the morning, Li Kailang was called away by Director Yang.

"Xiao Li, it's the end of the month, I'll have to trouble you to go again and bring some more food."

"Whether it's troublesome or not, it's all for the service of everyone. I'll go now."

Hearing this, Director Yang smiled slightly. Li Kailang was still a perceptive person.

"Okay, leave early and come back early."

Li Kailang said, "By the way, Director Yang, we agreed last time that the price of grain will not be cheap this time, and they will increase the price."

"I know that. I've already informed the finance department. Just go get it."

"Okay, then I'll go." Li Kailang nodded, turned and left.

Because the last time we urgently needed food, the price of food increased, and this time the price of food will also increase, so we have to discuss it in advance so as not to forget.

Speaking of this, the rewards for this month have not been announced yet. There are no rare tickets, only ordinary tickets.

The rewards for exchanging food have not been announced yet, but these have nothing to do with Li Kailang.

"I'm so happy. I made some free money." After taking 5 yuan from the finance department, Li Kailang drove away.

It was still the same as usual, wandering around everywhere, then sleeping and resting to get enough rest, ready to go to the black market at night.

Then I made the car dirty, and after a series of operations, I started to get down to business.

Loading food, covering the curtain, plastering, and finally pulling it back to the grove, the series of operations were completed in one go at 1pm.

After the grain was moved into the canteen, Li Kailang drove the car back to the transport team and cleaned it.

Looking at the big handful of money in his hand, Li Kailang muttered to himself: "Why not buy food and exchange it for something next time? Money is always useless."

"Or maybe we can trade it with some gold or something like that on the black market, or maybe we can trade it with things from the factory?"

Money alone is of no use to Li Kailang. It would be better to exchange the money for physical objects, but he has to think carefully about what to exchange it for.

The steel rolling mill is not a small factory and it is not something that can be easily bullied. If one is not careful and asks for too much, it is very likely to alert the Security Department.

When the security department takes action, it will be a real fight. Most of them are retired soldiers and are not easy to deal with.

"We need to think it over carefully, and do it bit by bit."

Having made up his mind, Li Kailang put it out of his mind and waited for dark to go to the new black market.

Time flies.

late at night.

The streets were silent as Li Kailang arrived at a new black market - Deshengmen Beixiao Market.

This place is close to many royal palaces and mansions near Shichahai. From the late Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China, there are many legends of people getting rich by picking up bargains, which attracts many antique lovers.

Just waiting for the day when I can get rich.

Some impoverished nobles in the late Qing Dynasty had no choice but to sell off the little private property left by their ancestors in order to survive.

Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, there were fewer people selling collectibles, calligraphy and paintings in Deshengmen Beixiao Market, but more people selling foreign goods.

There were relief supplies from the United States and also smuggled goods, and the types were varied.

There are biscuits, butter, canned meat, as well as leather shoes, coats, and telescopes. Taking a stroll here is like "tasting foreign food".

It was not until after the founding of the People's Republic of China that foreign goods became less common, and cultural relics, calligraphy and paintings once again occupied the high ground.

"I'm here today to broaden my horizons." Li Kailang came to Beixiao City in Deshengmen for the first time to see what the situation was like.

I have to say that there are indeed quite a few people selling antiques, cultural relics, calligraphy and paintings here. Looking around, basically they are all selling these, and there are very few people selling other things.

Food is sold here, and there are many people queuing up to buy food, but they are squeezed into the corner.

The rules had already been formed earlier. Even if grain merchants could move to a better place to sell grain, they would stay there for fear of offending the nobles.

"It's true that there are quite a lot of antiques in Beixiao City, and there are also many strange and weird things."

Li Kailang was like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden, full of curiosity, looking at the dazzling array of things.

Fortunately, my clothes were blocking my expression, otherwise people would really think I was a country bumpkin.

"It's a rare opportunity to come here, so I have to buy a few real ones to take back."

Li Kailang focused on selling damaged antiques, and could tell whether they were real or fake by looking at the repair panels.

"Hey, 5 yuan is a bargain for a piece of jade."

Li Kailang bought an emerald jade for 5 yuan. If it wasn't badly damaged, the seller would not have sold it.

"It's a bargain for me. When I have time, I will sell it back. The price will increase dozens of times."

With a good start, Li Kailang continued to shop on Taobao and found several good treasures one after another.

While shopping on Taobao, Li Kailang did not forget his business and was observing the grain merchants in the black market.

I walked back and forth twice and visited most of the places.

“I didn’t expect that there are so few grain merchants in this black market, only three, and the grain is much less than that in Dongxiao City.”

"No wonder. This place mainly sells antiques, calligraphy and paintings. It's natural that there are few things. But fortunately, these three grain merchants are all very low-key, which makes it much more convenient."

Li Kailang also observed that the people who bought food here usually went around the ghost market and bought it on the way. The number of people was not large, but it was also half, less than that of Dongxiao City, but this number was enough, and it would not take long to buy all the food.

The people who buy grain in the two black markets are similar, and the market prices are similar, so you can make money by selling it here.

In addition to this, Li Kailang also observed that he did not find anyone selling guns and ammunition in this black market.

"This is really weird. Other black markets have it, but not here. Could it be that I came at the wrong time?"

"It's better not to come. It's best not to come. I don't have to worry about safety."

Without the threat of guns, Li Kailang chose a cheaper and more remote grain merchant among the three.

It was similar to Lao Hei's situation at the beginning. As soon as they heard that Li Kailang had food, they wanted it immediately, and they wanted more at once.

But Li Kailang only sold 500 kilograms of grain, no more, and he still came once every ten days or half a month.

The black market in Beixiao City is far from Li Kailang's home and also far from the night school, so he has to make a special trip here.

No matter what they said, it was impossible for Li Kailang to come here at a fixed time.

"Okay, that's all I ask. If you can't accept it, I'll change to another company to avoid causing trouble for you and me. I'm here to make money, not to cause trouble."

"Hey, no, no, no, I'm all listening to you." Lao Bai said hurriedly.

Li Kailang didn't expect that the person he was looking for was so coincidental, and his surname was Bai.

Compared with Lao Hei in Dongxiao City, it is relatively easy to remember.

One black and one white.

"Comrade, when will the food be delivered?"

"It's right outside. If you want, just follow me. Remember to bring money with you."

"Row."

Seeing that there was no fraud in the 500 kilograms of coarse grains, Lao Bai generously gave Li Kailang 5 small yellow croakers and a 5-gram piece of gold.

"Wow, that's a lot."

"Oh, not much, not much. I'll trouble you to come next time." Lao Bai said with a cheerful smile.

"Of course." Li Kailang agreed with a smile.

It is said that this place is close to dignitaries, and you can easily give them a small piece of gold. It seems that I have to come to this place often in the future.

"Okay, take the food with you."

Not long after, Lao Bai brought his men and took away all the food.

After they left, Li Kailang's expression changed, and he looked into the depths of the dark alley: "Okay, stop hiding, come out and meet me."

There was silence.

"We've already been discovered. What's the point of hiding? Brothers, if you don't come out, I'll leave first."

"Pap-ta-ta-ta-"

A series of footsteps were heard, and five strong men walked out of the darkness, each of them wearing a mask.

"They come with bad intentions." Li Kailang raised his eyebrows and looked at them holding machetes.

"Hey, little brother, be smart and leave the money here." The boss walked in front and said angrily.

Li Kailang didn't understand what was going on and asked, "Did you see that just now?"

A younger brother was puzzled by Li Kailang's words: "What did you see? Boy, if you know what's best for you, hurry up and call out all the money."

"Did you really not see it? That's 500 kilograms of food."

"I saw it. If you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten it. Tell me where you hid the food. If you don't, we will make you pay."

Hearing this, Li Kailang let out a sigh of relief, "It's good that you didn't see it."

When Lao Bai and the others were halfway there, he heard the noises of this group of people, although he was sure that they did not see how he took out the food.

But just in case, ask a question.

The boss immediately responded: "Boy, be smart and tell us where the money and food are hidden. We will make it easier for you to collect them. Otherwise, don't blame us for being ruthless."

"Are you so greedy? You want both food and money, but not just one?"

"Hahaha--"

"Boss, this guy's words are so funny. He's about to die and still wants money. He doesn't even care about his life."

"Hahaha--"

Several people burst into laughter, and the eldest brother raised his hand viciously and shook it hard.

"Not greedy? You're not greedy to make so much money! If you know what's best for you, take out all your stuff quickly, or you'll suffer, or you'll be blamed for being rude!"

The younger brother immediately responded: "That's right, no one will come here even if you scream your throat out!"

"I'm going to kill you and leave you here. No one will find you. If you don't want to die, scream out now!"

"Oh, it seems you have done this a lot." Li Kailang raised his eyebrows.

"Nonsense, in our line of work, there is no one who doesn't kill people. If we don't kill people, what will we eat, drink and play with?"

"That's right." Li Kailang nodded, "Then I wonder where you're going to dump the body after you kill someone?"

"Where else could it be? This place is so close to Shichahai, where else could it be thrown?"

"So that's how it is." Li Kailang said.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense." The boss waved his hand, signaling his younger brothers to rush forward.

Looking at them, Li Kailang didn't know whether he should be afraid.

"You dare to come out and kill people with just a few broken knives. I don't know what you are thinking. You have money but don't buy guns. You still carry a few broken knives. What era is this? You still have old ideas."

In their eyes, Li Kailang's palm suddenly flickered, and something appeared out of thin air as if by magic.

In the moonlight, a black shadow emerged. It was a pistol.

"Gun! Gun, gun."

"not good!"

"The idea is prickly!"

"withdraw!"

Several people instantly realized that something was wrong and hurriedly stopped and turned around to run.

"Bang bang bang~"

Several people fell one after another like dominoes.

"Don't, don't kill me." The boss fell to his knees with a bang, raising his hands high.

"If I don't kill you, how will I explain to the people you killed?"

"Bang." There was a soft sound, and the boss followed closely.

Looking at the four bodies lying on the ground, Li Kailang felt a headache.

"It's time to collect the bodies again. Luckily you found a place to bury them, otherwise it would be hard for me to find them."

Li Kailang put the corpse into the planting space and later went to Shichahai.

"It just so happens that now is spring and the flowers are blooming. It would be interesting if the four of you could die together."

"I can keep you company when we get down there, how about that? I'm a nice person, right?" Li Kailang told a joke, but no one around laughed with him.

"thump!!"

"thump!!"

The body was thrown into Shichahai Lake and gradually sank to the bottom.

“Clap!” They clapped their hands. “Done.”

"Look, after you die, your bodies can be used as nutrients to replenish the fish and shrimp in the river. Dying is finally a good thing."

Li Kailang smiled, and after disposing of the body, he turned around and went home.

Li Kailang didn't care about their appearance at all.

Today I went to the ghost market in Beixiao City. Selling food to make money was one thing, but the most important thing was to familiarize myself with the environment and find real buyers.

For those wealthy old folks, when there is a shortage of food, it is time to reap their property.

Selling the grain to them at that time would be the most profitable.

It is not impossible to exchange a small yellow croaker for a few kilograms of food.
