Chapter 30: Silly Sister

Then Wheat pointed to five more eggs. "Five more for the little brother, if it wasn't for the little brother who saved me that day, I would have died."

Liu Lan nodded. "Wheat understands the truth of gratitude and retribution, and is a good boy."

"It's just that I don't know where my little brother's house is, where to find him." Wheat raised her little face and squinted her eyes in the sun, which looked even more confused.

Liu Lan said. "Little brother He Beichen has been chopping wood in logistics, I will lead you to him in a while, and you can thank him in person."

"Hmm."

Gu Mai nodded vigorously and laughed happily, as if he had eaten a candy ball.

After that, she checked the fine grains again, the amount of these fine grains is too small, and it is not enough to eat for a few days, and now she is not very close to rice and white noodles, she is really tired of eating in her previous life, and she still likes to eat coarse grains. "Godmother, I want to replace fine grains with coarse grains, and then give Da Ganniang a pound of coarse grains, and the rest is my rations, I will join in Daganniang's house, is it okay?"

Liu Lan thinks this method is good. "Well, let's take out all the fine grains now, I'm afraid Feng Juan will be very angry, and want her to cook and deliver food to you, it is estimated that it is impossible, even if it is delivered, it cannot be delivered in such a timely manner. Besides, I don't know if she'll mix something disgusting into her food. As for Sister-in-law Chen, who was originally doing housework and cooking at home, it won't be troublesome to bring you an extra bite every day, I think Sister-in-law Chen can agree. And Sister-in-law Chen is sincere, she will not be greedy for your food, I think your idea is good. ”

Because she has just worn to this era, everyone's concepts and ideas may not be the same as those of the future, before making this request, Gu Mai was still a little worried, afraid that she would bring trouble to others, or all kinds of inconvenience, with Liu Lan's affirmation, she was much more relieved. "Mmmm, I also think that my stepmother can't give me food, she can't wait for me to die. The godmother can give me her own rations, and she will definitely not be greedy for my food. "She's relieved about that." Then let's go find a place first and replace fine grains with coarse grains, godmother, do you know the place? ”

"There is a supply and marketing cooperatives in front, let's go there and ask." Liu Lan pointed to the one not far in front of her and said.

Looking for the public, Gu Mai has a little understanding of the economic environment at this time, and she is resolutely cracking down on speculation. "Godmother, will we be arrested if we do this? Will it delay your work? ”

Liu Lan's eyes were quite surprised when she looked at the wheat. "I didn't expect that you are young, but you know a lot, and you even understand that you can't exchange food privately."

Gu Mai was stunned, did she show that she knew too much? A 9-year-old should know a lot, right?

She rubbed her little hair and said nothing. "I also heard from my father, he said that you are not allowed to buy and sell privately, and to do business without permission is speculation."

"Yes, if you make money by changing something, then it's speculation for a long time, but if you don't make money, it doesn't count. For example, four catties of coarse grain can be exchanged for one catty of fine grain, which is required by the government, and the real price is clear. We didn't take advantage of people, and we didn't let people take advantage of us. ”

Gu Mai has a little in-depth understanding of the economic framework of this period.

As long as you don't break the law, then it's easy to do. "Well, as long as it doesn't affect my godmother's work, that's fine."

"Let's go, let's go and change, otherwise the supply and marketing cooperatives will soon get off work."
