    "Forget it, I'd better not think about it so much for the time being. Let's solve the problem of food and clothing first."

    Since the real problem is so complicated.

    It cannot be solved in a short time.

    Qiao Mudang put aside the big problems neatly and prepared to solve the small problems first to solve his own food and clothing problem.

    However, out of consideration that I don¡¯t have a penny left, I now live in a low-rent apartment for the elderly. If the government hadn¡¯t waived ten years of rent due to the collapse of the welfare system, I would have even paid next month¡¯s rent.  Not coming out.

    Therefore, Qiao Mu could only get up first and turn off the monitoring system in the house. Then he took out the cornucopia and some food from the penguin farm warehouse, and started eating while thinking about what to sell and exchange for money.

    Today¡¯s era is different from the past.

    It¡¯s different from hundreds of years ago.

    In the past, if you wanted to sell something, as long as it was not too precious or in large quantities, generally no one would investigate the source and whereabouts of the thing. There were countless places to recycle gold and silver. However, after hundreds of years of development, this world has developed into almost  Everything can be traced back to its origin, as small as a needle or a piece of cardboard, as large as gold, silver and electrical appliances.

    It is also convenient for returns and complaints.

    It can also effectively reduce the crime rate, because items that cannot be traced successfully are not allowed to be bought or sold.

    Everything that the original body could sell has been sold out.

    The current clothes, beds, etc. are all worthless things. If they are all sold, they will probably not be able to exchange for a meal. Therefore, if Qiao Mu wants to make money now, he can only go out to work or find something from his own inventory.  Come out and sell.

    However, now that the unemployment rate has increased significantly, young people have to lower their wages to find a job, or even find a job. It is even more impossible for an elderly retiree like her to find a job.

    At the same time, she keeps her own inventory.

    No one can successfully trace the origin.

    This is the core of her dilemma:

    "Antiques are definitely not good. They don't match up with the history and civilization. They are difficult to sell, and the source cannot be explained. For gold and silver, selling gold and silver requires not only checking the source of the gold and silver, but also the person who purchased the gold and silver.  There are too many systems that need to be invaded regarding the source of funds, and it is very troublesome to figure it out.

    And a person living in a low-rent apartment for the elderly suddenly took out a large amount of gold and silver.

    It should be illegal.

    It seems to be a crime of defrauding public resources.

    ¡°Alas, this technologically advanced world is troublesome. It¡¯s hard to sell anything.

    "If there is a black market, yes, a black market"

    After muttering in a low voice and struggling for a while, Qiao Mu really thought of a place where items could be traded without traceability, and that was the black market.

    Although she doesn¡¯t know if there is one here.

    But according to experience, when supplies are scarce and controlled by the authorities, it is impossible for everyone to behave properly. There will definitely be people doing business and exchange in private. This kind of thing has happened in the past, and it will definitely happen again now.  occur.

    So the black market definitely exists.

    I just don¡¯t know where it is.

    Think about it, although on the surface the state controls all materials, in reality the most the state controls are those large farms, livestock farms and breeding farms, and some micro-small personal harvests, even if the higher-ups try to purchase them, it is impossible  It is truly a comprehensive and complete acquisition, plus some people may have items that are inconvenient to trade directly, or that cannot be traced.

    ? Then naturally the transaction can only be conducted privately.

    This kind of transaction is not necessarily called a black market.

    But the essence should still be the same.

    Thinking of this, Qiao Mu immediately opened the holographic network login terminal bound to his original body again, and began to carefully and secretly avoid the comprehensive supervision of the main brain system on the Internet to search for private transaction contents.

    And it was quickly found.

    After all, times have changed and technology has advanced.

    This black market no longer exists in reality, but a hidden black market has appeared directly.

    And it was discovered after the trees were connected.

    This hidden network black market is another network independent of the Photon Holographic Network. Although it uses relatively ancient quantum network technology, it does avoid the control of the Photon Mastermind. There is no need to worry about the exposure of one's own information and the danger.

    But after Qiao Mu looked through various purchase information and acquisition information,I discovered a very embarrassing thing, that is, almost no one sells gold and silver, and no one comes to buy gold and silver. Most of what they buy and sell are various pharmaceutical equipment, as well as relatively rare and large quantities of materials.

    In the end, Qiao Mu had no choice but to simply give up all his previous plans, and instead chose to take a thousand kilograms of mushrooms from his Penguin Farm warehouse, dry them, and sell them on the black market.

    Then, it was snapped up in less than a second.

    The next step is the transaction.

    Since the transaction was conducted in the hidden network black market, the transaction method was naturally different from usual. Soon, Qiao Mu packed the thousand kilograms of dried mushrooms and handed them over to the collector sent by the black market middleman.  On the other hand, the specific payment is also sent to the middleman. The middleman will review it and draw a 10% commission after it is confirmed to be correct. Then the two things will be delivered separately.

    Because the middleman has its own space transmission equipment, the delivery process is quite fast.

    It is also quite safe.

    Half an hour later, Qiao Mu successfully received the payment, a whole box of banknotes.

    That¡¯s right, it¡¯s paper money.

    Here, all electronic transactions will be monitored by the mastermind, and sudden and unexplained income will be reviewed. Therefore, if electronic transactions are passed, the black market will have no meaning, because it will be detected no matter what.

    Only paper money transactions can avoid surveillance.

    There is no problem during normal use.

    After getting the money, Qiao Mu immediately started going shopping to buy some indoor planting equipment.

    For example, soilless cultivation equipment.

    Mushroom culture medium raw materials and so on.

    The next step was to decorate the interior. It took Qiao Mu three full days to make use of all the free space in the low-rent house where she now lives. She planted mushrooms, potatoes, and potatoes.  Green vegetables are grown, bean sprouts are grown, and all the seeds are smuggled out by Qiao Mu from the Penguin Farm warehouse. There is no way, the price of seeds here is too high, after Qiao Mu buys all kinds of equipment, the remaining money  Not enough to buy seeds.

    She is too lazy to go to the black market to sell things.

    So I just took it from the penguin farm.

    If she hadn¡¯t been worried that it would be too abrupt to take everything from the Penguin Farm, she wouldn¡¯t have wanted to do the business of selling mushrooms.

    When all these things were done and the first batch of bean sprouts were produced, Qiao Mu hurriedly carried a few kilograms of bean sprouts and some potatoes from the Penguin Farm warehouse, and prepared to go out and visit his son and daughter's house.  Look, let¡¯s see what¡¯s going on with them and whether they need funding.

    However, Qiao Mu didn¡¯t have time to go out yet.

    Her holographic lander suddenly popped up a message and announcement.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
