Seeing that the little girl in front of him didn't speak, the middle-aged man was a little anxious, he was late in the car to the county seat today, and there were not many people in this black market, his things were good, but the price was too expensive, few people cared, until now, he hasn't opened yet!

If it weren't for the fact that it wasn't time for the departure of the train, he would have packed up his things and left, this little girl might be his only customer today, and he couldn't just miss her.

"If it's too expensive, it's okay to have less, three pieces of bacon for two, and seven pieces of preserved fish, how about it?"

"This price is definitely not expensive, I have all good things, pork is the New Year's pig killed in my village, and the fish is also fresh and fatty grass carp, which is very delicious."

He had already spent five cents on the car this morning, and he would have to pay five cents back, plus the booth fee in this place, which was a lot of total, and if he got nothing and went back with all his things, wouldn't this mean that he didn't earn his work today, not to mention, and he would have to pay a dime and a half to go in, which would be a big loss.

Now the village is busy with spring ploughing, and the captain can let him ask for leave, it is already due to the difficult situation of his family, and he will go back today, and the next time he comes to the county seat, I don't know when it will be.

The key is that he can wait, but his mother's illness can't wait!

"No matter less, although the pork on the black market is also expensive, it is only one piece and five pounds, you are directly three yuan and two, it is too expensive, and the preserved fish is too, this fish is not worth any meat! I usually buy catties of grass carp, and five cents and one catty will reach the top. ”

Although Qin Xi has been in the countryside for more than a month, this does not mean that she does not know anything about the prices in the city.

As for fish, the price is not comparable to meat at all, a grass carp is only four or five cents a catty, even if it is a black market, it is only six or seven cents a catty, and a piece of grass carp of seven or one catty is too expensive.

"And how much do you say is appropriate?" As long as it's not too exaggerated, he can accept it.

And he was a young girl, thin-skinned, and from what she said before, he knew that this person was not stingy, nor was he careful, and such a buyer was the most comfortable.

He is not a peddler who specializes in buying and selling bacon and bacon, and bargaining with others is not his specialty, and when he encounters that nonsense, he can only give up this business, otherwise, he will not have opened until now, after all, fish and meat are scarce goods, and when you see it, someone will always come to ask the price.

"How about three pieces of bacon and one pound of bacon and four pounds of preserved fish?"

She has calculated this price, and she thinks it is more appropriate.

Not to mention anything else, it takes a lot of time to smoke the bacon alone, and she thinks the manual fee is worth the price.

"Yes, how much do you want?" The middle-aged man was holding an old-fashioned weighing rod in his hand, and his nervous palms were about to sweat.

This price for him, is already a very pleasant surprise, in the morning there is an old man to him this bargain, bacon said is two pieces, preserved fish said is eight cents, see he disagrees, just a little bit up grinding, and finally bite to death bacon two pieces of two pounds, preserved fish a pound a pound, at this price, he is not making any money, if it is this price, he can sell it in his hometown casually, why bother to come to the black market in Yongxing County!

"Load it all up for me!" Qin Xi couldn't help but be glad that he had brought more than 20 yuan when he went out in the morning, otherwise he might not be able to take down all the things in this stall.

When she thought of the deliciousness of bacon stuffed rice, she felt that she was already hungry, by the way, she had to buy some soy sauce to go back, and bacon stewed rice without soy sauce was soulless.

Although she didn't bring a soy sauce bottle, she brought a bamboo tube for water to drink, and when the time came to drink the water, she used the bamboo tube to hold soy sauce, be careful, she wouldn't spill it.

Buy soy sauce at the supply and marketing cooperatives to ask for soy sauce tickets, I don't know if there is soy sauce to buy in the black market, there should be! This place has so many things, just like a department store and supermarket, soy sauce should be a small meaning to them!

"Big brother, where are you?"

"I'm from Honghe County next door, I came here on purpose, this place is famous for being safe and reliable, and I'm not cheap here, so it's best to find a safe place to shoot." Maybe it was all sold, and he relieved himself of the pressure and opened the conversation.

Who doesn't know that this black market controller in Yongxin County is a cow! There are people above, since the implementation of the planned economy on the top, after buying things with tickets, this black market has existed, it has been more than ten years, there is nothing at all, there is a good reputation, hello I am hello everyone, the wind has not blown here, it is very safe.

"Three catties and two taels of bacon, look at it."

Although Qin Xi couldn't understand the old-fashioned weighing rod, he still pretended to be very knowledgeable, and after reading it, he nodded.

"The preserved fish is five catties and three taels, you see, I don't have any pressure at all, and the tail rod is high."

"This bacon is three catties and two taels, one catty and three pieces, and three catties."

"Nine." Qin Xi saw that he was holding his fingers, and he was slow to count, and directly opened his mouth to help him.

"Yes, yes, it's nine pieces, and those two taels are"

"Two taels are six cents, three pieces are a catty, one two is three cents, and two taels are six cents."

"Yes, yes, yes." Although he is the only one in the family who knows how to count, he has never gone to school, and his mother at home taught him these numbers with his fingers and hands.

When I first looked at the scale, how good it was, and how stumbling it is now, I can only say that each has its own strengths.

"I'll give you nine dollars and six cents for this bacon first, so that you don't get the two things mixed together, and you can't figure it out." Qin Xi's hand reached under his clothes into his inner pocket and took out the small purse he had sewn.

"Give, count."

"Okay." The middle-aged man nervously wiped his sweaty palms on his clothes, took the money, and lit them one by one in front of Qin Xi.

At this time, they are all face-to-face transactions, money and goods, and when people leave, even if they find something wrong, it is useless, because it is not clear, so both parties to the transaction are in front of each other to order the money, so as not to have disputes later.

The next preserved fish is concocted in the same way, a pound of preserved fish is a piece of four, five catties and three taels is seven pieces of four cents two, this time due to the complexity of the numbers, Qin Xi accompanied him to count several times, and after confirming that it was correct, he was finally able to go.

This time she came to the county seat, she spent seventeen yuan and two cents just to buy meat, and the rest of the money, after Qin Xi bought two steamed buns, she bought all the grain, ten catties of rice, ten catties of corn, sixteen catties of sweet potatoes, and one pound of soy sauce.
