After bidding farewell to the tiger and He, Yi Roujing and her group went down the mountain. They walked for over an hour and caught a bus to Daigong County. It's rare to come, so they intended to visit the county town and the city.
Daigong County itself doesn't have much worth visiting. It's a small county town, and the Department Store seemed about the same size as the supply and marketing cooperatives back in Tongxian Commune, according to Yi Roujing.
But they were lucky to come at the right time. It happened to be market day, and many people brought their homemade pickles, cured meats, and even handmade baskets and wooden buckets to sell.
Yi Roujing took a liking to a stall that sold pickled spicy vegetables. She tried the taste, bought two jars, and since Ni Yanqing knew someone in the county where they could store everything, they decided to come back for it after visiting the city. So everyone bought freely to their heart's content.
