The few people walked along the road, and from a distance, they saw many stalls set up on both sides, with hawking voices rising one after another.
"Take a look, take a look, old books and newspapers, buy them for fun, and after reading, you can still use them as toilet paper, truly a good deal."
"Anyone need a mirror? Combs, toothbrushes, towels, all selling cheap."
"Skincare products, anyone need skincare products? Also have soaps, shampoos."
"Anyone buying Go sets, chess sets? How about pocket knives?"
In front of most stalls, there were very few people. Occasionally, someone would inquire about the price and then leave shaking their head.
These little knick-knacks, the lowest price was at least one yuan.
One yuan could buy a pound of regular rice, enough to feed a family of three for two days, if rationed.
By comparison, the stalls at the entrance were surrounded by crowds. As Chen Fan got closer, he realized these people were all there to buy meat.
