Chapter 42 Pays Big
Mo Beihan had already estimated these things, and he also knew the strength of Chen Jin, and knew how much benefit he could get back when these things were in his hands.
So he said: "Ten catties of black noodles, five catties of white flour, five catties of rice, ten catties of cornmeal, three hundred yuan, plus a few old things." ”
Chen Jin thought about it, he has a lot of skills, and when these things come to him, he can find all kinds of people who want to exchange them, so he still has a lot of money to earn from this request.
Chen Jin suddenly smiled and said, "Brother, you are so refreshing, okay, I'll get it for you!" ”
Soon he packed the grain, put it in a cloth bag, took three hundred yuan to Mo Beihan, and then went to get the old things.
Gu Qingyao watched from the side, thinking about the situation in this era.
At this time it was the year of the 70s, and the hunger situation was slightly better than in the previous days of the Great Famine, and their city was poorer, and the supplies were even more scarce.
Therefore, the high price of grain on the black market is quite high, because money cannot buy it.
During the three-year difficult period, the coarse grain in the black market was about five yuan a catty, the fine grain was a little more expensive, the meat was even more expensive, and the pork was twenty yuan a pound at the most expensive time, which was simply sky-high!
But that was the price of three years of hard times, and it was limited to the black market.
Now in the seventies, the environment is a little better, but the prices of the black market are still frighteningly high, and food is still the most precious thing.
The current price of pork should be twelve or thirteen yuan a catty, and these things in Mobeihan, if calculated according to the price of the black market, should be about five hundred to six hundred yuan.
Prices definitely fluctuate around the country, but here they are, that's it.
So these things that Mo Beihan wanted, Chen Jin still earned.
After a while, Chen Jin brought two wooden boxes, and after the boxes were opened, they were full of brilliance.
It is estimated that he saw Gu Qingyao here, so Chen Jin took all the jewelry.
Inside the box is a matching diamond jewelry, a diamond ring, a diamond necklace, and a pair of diamond bracelets, which is a set.
The diamond ring, Gu Qingyao took a look, this thing, in the jewelry stores of later generations, is estimated to cost tens of thousands, but now, it can only be exchanged for a few catties of grain, and it can't even be exchanged.
In addition, there are four gold bracelets, two of which are inlaid with emeralds, and the treasure is shiny and watery, and it is very beautiful.
In addition, there are four pairs of jade bracelets, all of which are of good material, but Gu Qingyao has taken a fancy to the best pair of them, the jade bracelet of the Laokeng glass species, which is full of green color, clear texture, full of water, and looks very beautiful.
Gu Qingyao liked it very much.
Seeing her eyes shining, Mo Beihan smiled and said, "You pick a few things you like." ”
Gu Qingyao thought about it, didn't refuse, and took the set of diamond jewelry, a gold bracelet inlaid with emeralds, and then, it was this pair of jade bracelets.
In this era, the National Bank of Jewelry and Jade does not accept them, which is almost equivalent to waste, and if you are not a person who likes it, you will not want these things at all, so what Gu Qingyao took was not distressing to Chen Jin at all.
She only took a gold bracelet, and gold is the hard currency of today.
Mo Beihan saw that Gu Qingyao directly took the pair of best jade bracelets, and his eyes moved.
After Gu Qingyao finished picking, Mo Beihan was ready to get up and leave.
Chen Jin sent the two out with a smile, "Brother, if you have something good, remember to come to me again!" I'll go find you. ”
Mo Beihan glanced at him, "I still have a lot of meat in my hands!" ”
Chen Jin suddenly smiled and narrowed his eyes!
