Chapter 312: Buying Food on the Black Market

Hearing the price of grain, Tang Ying hesitated a little, her and He Yuan's family backgrounds were much thinner than Qin Xi, after all, she was the first person to eat crabs.

If the price of coarse grains is seven or eight cents, although there is an increase, but it is not big, and it is still within the acceptable range, she will not have any ideas, and it is not a problem to buy fifty catties back.

But at least a dime and a pound of coarse grains are really challenging her limits, which is too expensive, and she is a little reluctant.

Tang Ying quietly pulled Qin Xi's sleeve and gave her a look.

Qin Xi received the information given by Tang Ying, followed her, and walked to the corner.

"What's wrong?"

Tang Ying first sighed heavily, and then said: "Xiaoxi, the grain in the black market is too expensive, I thought it had only risen a little before, but now that I look at it, I still underestimate them." ”

"Now that the price of this grain is so expensive, is it still worth us to buy?"

"It's too expensive, I don't think it's a good deal."

Tang Ying, who had already learned to be careful in her calculations, had already silently calculated in her heart how much money she and He Yuan could save if they ate mainly coarse grains and wild vegetables every day.

She used to be very generous, but now she learns from the big ladies around her, she likes to worry about everything, no way, in the countryside, everything has to rely on themselves, she and He Yuan's family will not send them packages, not counting, just the little money in your hand, in the blink of an eye, it will slip away.

"I don't interfere with how much you buy, but I'm going to buy a hundred catties of grain first."

"If the price of food in the black market hadn't risen so much, I really wouldn't have bought so much, but the black market is moving too fast, as if they deliberately raised the price of food so that people wouldn't buy it, which gives me a sense of ominousness." Qin Xi told his true feelings.

No matter whether Tang Ying buys food or not, or how much she buys, Qin Xi has no intention of interfering, she just expresses her tendency, after all, she has not been reborn, who knows what will happen this year.

Now she is afraid that the weather will be abnormal and she will starve herself, so she just makes some preparations in advance, whether Tang Ying follows or not, she has no opinion, this is Tang Ying's own decision, and choice, she will not interfere.

"Then I. I'll think about it again" Tang Ying was a little hesitant when she heard Qin Xi's words.

Speaking of which, she is still poor, if she had just gone to the countryside, she would definitely choose to prepare for both, without him, because she has money.

Of course, at that time, her relationship with Qin Xi was not good, without Qin Xi's reminder, she would not think much about it, she should have stayed in the village without knowing anything, it was okay if nothing happened, and if something happened, she would guarantee that there would be no good fruit to eat.

"Mmmm, this kind of thing, think slowly, don't worry." After speaking, Qin Xi took Tang Ying's hand and pulled the person back.

She is different from the three old men, she knows that there is no room for bargaining in the stalls of the black market, even if her mouth is dry, it may not be useful, and the three old men in front of her now don't just prove this?

"Boss, do you have peanuts here?"

Peanuts are a good thing, it has always been Qin Xi's favorite, it can be eaten raw or cooked, and it is very delicious, the most important thing is that the peanuts are in the shell, and the peanuts bought back are dried for a day or two when the weather is good, and there is no problem with storing them for a long time.

If the tide returns, when the weather is good, take it out to dry, and the preserved peanuts are no problem for three years, and they can still be eaten.

Peanuts have shells, a pound of peanuts, peel off the shell, only weigh peanuts, about seven taels, this is not very cost-effective, but it is too convenient to eat peanuts, usually have nothing to grab a handful, take it as a snack to eat, it is really good, she plans to buy a thirty pounds of peanuts back, eat slowly.

As soon as he heard Qin Xi call him, the middle-aged man standing in front of the stall only felt comfortable, listen, this is the normal name and normal attitude towards him when buying things.

Those old men and old ladies just pointed at his nose and scolded, if it weren't for their age, he would have given them two big blue eyes, he really thought that this black market was their home, and they could go wild anywhere.

"Yes, there are peanuts, a dime and a catty, how much do you want to buy?"

Hearing this price, Qin Xi was not surprised at all, since peanuts are at this price, then soybeans must be higher than peanuts, even if it is a penny a pound more.

She used to buy peanuts and soybeans on the black market, because she knew that the price of soybeans has always been higher than that of peanuts.

"I want 30 catties of peanuts, 20 catties of soybeans, 30 catties of dried sweet potatoes, 20 catties of rice, and 10 catties of flour."

The food in Qin Xi and Qin Jiang's back basket cost her a total of twenty-eight yuan, maybe it was the word boss, the grain seller liked to hear it, and the odds were erased by him.

After Qin Xi made a move, Tang Ying gritted her teeth after a fierce ideological struggle, and still bought twenty catties of dried sweet potatoes and ten catties of rice, just these things, save to eat, she and He Yuan can eat for a month, let's buy these for the time being!

Just buy these things, she can't feel distressed, and if she buys more, she is afraid that she won't be able to stand it.

At this time, she still had a fluke mentality in her heart, even if Qin Xi told her that the weather was wrong, she still held a fluke mentality, thinking, what if it rains tomorrow?

As for the thirty catties of food, it was a comfort that she spent money to buy for herself, she told herself in her heart that even if something really happened, she was already prepared, thirty catties of food, for them, it was not a little, she who bought the food, compared to other people who knew the youth, was not a little bit or two, and that's it.

The uncle and aunt who watched their transaction next to him angrily scolded the four of them for being losers and buying such expensive food to eat.

When they came over again, they saw that the middle-aged man who sold grain was as strong as ever towards them, and even scolded Qin Xi and them, because they felt that it was these four people who had ruined their business, and they had already discussed it with the man who sold things, but this person was about to loosen his mouth, but they were inserted into the bar, and in the end, they fell short, and they didn't scold them!

As for the middle-aged man, he has no pressure at all, he has spoken above, and they are not in a hurry to sell the food here, no pressure, no indicators, all of them.

If these three old things continue to spill on him, then he will never sell them a grain of grain, he must not have this right before, but now he has.

The slower the grain in his hand, the better, in this case, why should he get used to these old immortals?
