Chapter 208: Cents

It's past morning market time, but it doesn't mean that you can't sell something, so you walked a little further into the city and entered a residential area, and the group was surrounded.

"Fellow, what are you selling?" An aunt knew that she was a rural person by looking at the outfits of several people, and then looked at the pots and buckets of this car, and she had a guess in her heart. His eyes were shining on the tub in the car.

Old man Yu lifted a sack on the car, which contained well-dressed fish. The living need water to feed, and it is too heavy for an ox cart to pull, so it can only be killed and put into a sack.

Fortunately, people nowadays don't care about the dead or alive, as long as they are not broken.

"Oops~" When the aunt saw that such a big fish was still a whole sack, she immediately exclaimed. This voice shouted at the people passing by, and they were very excited to see this scene.

"How did you sell it?"

"5 yuan a pound." Old man Yu said.

"No, no, it's too expensive! The non-staple food station only sells for 5 cents a pound! Aunt said.

"Then you can go to the grocery store and buy it." Old man Yu said.

"It's almost there." A young woman next to her said to the aunt who was talking, "Who else can you fool now?" Uncle, give me two! But you'll have to give me a cheaper price. ”

"Okay!" The old man quickly took out two fish, weighing one and a half, 6 and a half catties.

"30 yuan, give you half a catty for nothing." Old man Yu said.

The woman nodded happily and hurried home to get the money. She is on her way to the morning shift now, how can she carry so much money with her.

Seeing this, the people next to them also began to choose their favorite fish. Everyone's expressions were very satisfied, although these fish were pierced through the mouths, but some of them were still alive, and they were still fluttering and fresh when they touched them.

"Uncle, what's in the bucket?" Someone asked.

"Live fish."

"Then I'm going to live!" When the man had finished speaking, he went home and got the basin, and called his neighbor by the way.

In this way, within 10 minutes, Old Man Yu's ox cart was surrounded by the crowd. More than 200 fish were sold in an instant, with an average of two or three per person.

And in this family area, there are definitely more than 100 families, and many people who come late have not bought them. The ox cart surrounding the old man did not let him go, and they asked him when he would come next.

"Tomorrow! Tomorrow morning! Old man Yu assured.

When they heard that he would come tomorrow, they let him go.

In less than half an hour, a cartload of fish was sold.

It doesn't mean that the people in the city are rich, they are all ordinary workers, with a salary of about 30 a month, and they have to feed the family, and half of the fixed grain and vegetables have to be removed every month.

However, they are in a state of having money and no land to spend, everything needs tickets, tickets are still in limited supply, and on average, the cloth tickets saved by a person in a year are only enough to make a new dress.

In multi-worker families, when parents and brothers have jobs and few children, the money saved every month is more, dozens, hundreds, it is possible, but it still can't be spent.

For this, the state even issued high-priced candies and high-priced pastries without tickets on New Year's Day in 61, just to recycle private currency......

5-20 yuan a pound of candy, 3-10 yuan a pound of pastries, selling quite well. This is the information that Feng Hua read later. (The author has specially checked the historical data.) )

So now I am willing to take out 30 yuan to buy two big fish at once, especially when I can't eat meat for a year.

Besides, 5 yuan a catty, it's really not expensive, how much is the grain a catty? How much is a pound of meat? The point is that money can't buy it! Now I can see something to eat, and the price is reasonable, so how can I let it go.

Old man Yu led everyone to rush back, only he and Accountant Sun were sitting in the car, and the others were walking on the ground. Several big men, no matter how thin they are, they are hundreds of pounds, but don't tire the cow~

At this time, it is really hard to say whether cattle are worth or people are worth money~

Accountant Sun was almost lying on his stomach and nestled in the car, holding the bag of money he had just received tightly in his arms.

That's about 3,000 yuan! 3000! He'd never seen that much money in his entire life!

He felt like he was having trouble breathing right now.

Old man Yu pulled him from behind and made him sit up straight.

Accountant Sun was frightened, and shouted without looking back: "Grab the money!" Grab the money! ”

The old man was startled, and even a few young people around the car who had been in a state of confusion also startled him, and quickly looked around, all of them were cornfields, and there was no one.

Yu Lao got up and slapped him on the back: "Shut up!" Bring the wolf again. ”

Accountant Sun also reacted and made a big red face.

Everyone made him make a fuss, and the atmosphere was a little lighter. Not to mention Accountant Sun, except for Old Man Yu, the other people who came with him had never seen 3,000 yuan, and some of them had never even seen what 30 yuan was like together.

"I know what 10 dollars looks like today!" The three stunned people said suddenly. The face value of ten yuan is the largest face value now, and it is really uncommon in rural areas because it is not needed.

"Then you're better than me, I just learned what 5 yuan looks like today." Another said. He had only seen cents and dimes before, that is, two pieces in pieces, which were not common.

"Out of breath." Old man Yu said a word to everyone, and then turned to Accountant Sun and said, "One person gives them one, let them take a good look." ”

Accountant Sun didn't dare to refute the old man's words now, so he found 4 pieces of 10 yuan and handed them one to each of them.

The three stunned people took the money as if they had received a holy decree, and they were reluctant to let go.

"Originally, I said that I would catch a fish today, and each of you would be given the largest one." Old man Yu said to everyone: "But in the scene just now, the fish didn't stay, so I'll count it as money for you, can it?" ”

Old man Yu originally planned to leave a few fish in the end, after all, this was what Liang Qingshan had promised before, and he couldn't break his promise. But those who sold the fish refused to let them go, and if they didn't sell them, they wouldn't let them go, and in the end they had to sell them.

"It's done!" Several people nodded busily, so done!

They have eaten fish from snacks to big fish, big fish and small fish, but they have never seen ten yuan in their lives, and now they have it all at once, where is there anyone who is unwilling.

"One person divides them for 25 dollars." Old man Yu said to Accountant Sun.

When a few people heard that it was not ten yuan but 25, they were even more happy.

Accountant Sun was very envious in his heart, this morning, it was 25 yuan.

"You have a share, too." Old man Yu said to Accountant Sun.

Accountant Sun was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed, and he smiled without even being polite. He is the same age as Liang Qingshan, and Old Man Yu is also an elder, so he has no psychological burden at all when he accepts it.

Accountant Sun bowed his head and was about to turn over the money in his bag.

"Give it to them when they get home, give it to them now, they don't think they will be able to walk." Old man Yu said.

"Hey, hey, it's really not." The three stunned smirked. Even now with 10 yuan in his hand, he feels that he is a little smooth.
