Chapter 563: An Encounter With Bai Youran (2)

Gu Qingyao waited in her own room where she hid in the interspace to prepare the resources.
She divided each into smaller portions just like how she did in preparation for bartering. Previously, she and Mo Beihan visited so many places and not many resources were left in her interspace. Moreover, the capital had a very high demand, so she would prepare the items when she had time.
The next morning, Gu Qingyao went out and dressed normally. But when she was near the black market, she found an empty alley where she hid in her interspace to change her disguise.
When she was out, her outfit had already changed.
There were plenty of empty, old streets like these in the alley, and Gu Qingyao could find one anytime.
The weather in the capital was transitioning to winter, and they were not far from the end of the year. During year ends, people visited their families and friends and even had to give gifts to some people, so many had already begun preparing for it.
Thus, the black market was rather livelier during this period.
Gu Qingyao had many resources in her hand, including rare items and ordinary food supplies, so she sold her items very quickly.
There were many big shots in the capital, and although many people wore nothing out of the ordinary, they might have some remarkable background. Even though they appeared down and out now, they might actually be living very comfortably behind this appearance.
The rare items in Gu Qingyao’s hands were sold very quickly. It was the same for fine grains such as rice, flour and noodles, brown sugar and eggs since the demand was high.
As for the candied fruits, canned food, meats, fruits, many people wanted these too, and it was comparable to Nancheng’s demand.
After making a round in the black market, Gu Qingyao was satisfied.
When she came out, she did not go to other black markets. As the department store was not far away, she decided to take a look there to send some items to her eldest brother.
The department store in the capital was very large. Gu Qingyao especially looked for wedding necessities the moment she went in. She was not short of living necessities and had delivered many to her eldest brother previously. However, weddings had to use more festive items, so Gu Qingyao came to take a look.
Marriage during this timing involved only blankets, clothes, and shoes. Gu Qingyao gave it a thought and realized she had not prepared a wedding blanket for her eldest brother’s wedding.
The letter that came previously stated that their wedding would be held in the next month. She should be able to make it in time if she sent it now, right?
Forget it. Send first, think later.
Gu Qingyao directly went to pick a very festive blanket.
“Comrade, do you have any blankets used for weddings? The very festive kinds.”
The salesperson saw that although the lady before her was not wearing anything outstanding, her skin was tender and clear and her hands were delicate. At one glance, she could tell that the lady had not suffered any hardships.
In this era, many people dressed in a very low-key manner, but looks would not lie. This girl’s family must be pretty good.
Wedding necessities. These people were most willing to spend money. Thus, the salesperson was extremely friendly.
“Yes! Yes!” She hurriedly took a few varieties for Gu Qingyao to see.
“Look, these are very festive and are best for weddings.”
Gu Qingyao looked and felt: How dated!
There were pink, rose red and bright red colors. The colors were quite festive, but the designs were a little old-fashioned!
But these were so according to Gu Qingyao’s judgment. In this era, these items are considered relatively gorgeous!
Gu Qingyao smiled. Only by using these items would it be in accordance with the current times. Presently, brightly coloured items were extremely few and only items used for weddings were relatively more festive.
She picked a bright red blanket with the best material and which was the most expensive selection out of all and bought the complete set with the pillow covers as well.
