Chapter 14: Go to the Black Market Again
After listening to Shen Ruoqing's words, all the aunts were speechless, they didn't expect it to be so difficult in the city now. There was a lot of discussion for a while, and no one cared about what was in Shen Ruoqing's bamboo basket.
Successfully arrived at the county seat, Shen Ruoqing thought about another bowl of Yangchun noodles that tasted good last time, but there were no food stamps in his hand, and the last time he went to the black market to sell food, all of them were exchanged for money, and he didn't ask for tickets at all, so he gave up, bought a few big meat buns from the system mall and came to the house of the fourth brother Shen Xiangbei.
"Fourth brother, open the door!"
This time it was Su Jieru who opened the door.
"Fourth sister-in-law, this is what my mother asked me to bring to you, I won't go in, I still have something!"
Shen Ruoqing stuffed the fat rabbit into Su Jieru's arms, turned around and left. She didn't want to be misunderstood by Su Jieru, she wanted to eat here.
"Eh, Ruoqingβ"
When Su Jieru reacted, Shen Ruoqing was already gone.
"Daughter-in-law, who is it?"
"Your little sister, send a fat rabbit and leave!"
Shen Xiangbei weighed the rabbit, this is quite heavy, it must be five or six catties, right?
"Little sister sent a rabbit and left? Why don't you stay for dinner? β
"Yes, she ran so fast, as if she was afraid that I would call her." Su Jieru was a little embarrassed, it must have been the last practice that made Shen Ruoqing embarrassed to stay!
"Jieru, you see that you say every day that my house is full of blood-sucking grasshoppers, don't you also send meat? Think about how difficult it is to eat meat these days. My mom still thinks about the two of us. β
"Gotta get it, your mother doesn't know how many things she came to our house to take, and now it's just a rare rabbit to be returned, isn't it the last time I saw that you posted so much money and food? Look at the five catties of white noodles you posted last time? Although Su Jieru was also happy to have meat to eat, she felt even more distressed about the five catties of white noodles.
"Daughter-in-law, let me tell you, in fact, I didn't spend that much on the white noodles last time, I only spent this number." Shen Xiangbei mysteriously compared to his daughter-in-law.
"Isn't that a dollar and a pound? So cheap? I also saw that the white flour has reached the standard of rich and strong powder, so cheap, why don't you buy more? You're thinking about your own mother! Su Jieru hit Shen Xiangbei twice.
"Eh, daughter-in-law, isn't that only five catties? I've told you all, this thing is in short supply. What's more, my little sister follows me, I can't secretly hide two catties of white noodles for myself. "That's right, Shen Xiangbei really wanted to keep two or three catties for himself, but wasn't Shen Ruoqing there at the time, and when he got home, Mrs. Ji was still waiting there, and he didn't buy any other bags.
"It's okay, I'll go there again today and see if there's any cheap white noodles. If you have one, I will buy some supplements for you, your children, and our mom and dad. β
Qian Shen Xiangbei is still a little, that is, the ten yuan left over from the last time I bought white noodles. Su Jieru is an only daughter, Su's father and Su's mother In addition to Su Jieru's daughter, Su's father and mother also have a son, that is, Su Jieru's younger brother Su Qiang, and now they all live with Su's father and Su's mother. Su's father and Su mother are both dual-income workers, and now Su's mother's job has retired and given it to Su Jieru, and she has also found a temporary job for Shen Xiangbei. There are many workers in the family, and the Su family is doing well.
Shen Ruoqing crutched to the public toilet after delivering the rabbit, bought the black coat and black mask again in the public beta, bought a hat, wrapped all his hair, showed only a pair of eyes, and smeared some ash on his face, which was done.
In fact, there are character masks in the system mall, which can change people's appearance, but she only costs a few hundred yuan, and the cheapest human skin mask costs 500 yuan, and Shen Ruoqing's money still has to be kept to buy space.
Familiar with the way to find the entrance of the black market, Shen Ruoqing paid two cents as usual, and went in.
Or just like last time, as soon as Shen Ruoqing sat down, someone stepped forward and asked, "Comrade, what are you selling?" β
"Fine grains, white flour and rice, everything, what do you want?" Shen Ruoqing still said in a thick voice like last time.
"Everything? Is there soybeans then? β
Shen Ruoqing was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Yes, how much do you want?" β
Anyway, she can buy it in the system mall! However, soybeans should belong to coarse grains, I don't know how much they cost.
"Really? Do you really have soybeans? The man was pleasantly surprised, originally he just asked casually, but he didn't expect it to be true, and asked himself how much, does this mean a lot?
"How many do you have, I want them all, by the way, how much do you sell for a pound?"
Shen Ruoqing thought about it, and first bought ten catties of soybeans from the system mall, soybeans are cheaper than white noodles, in the system mall, five cents a catty, and these ten catties of soybeans cost Shen Ruoqing five cents.
Under the cover of the bamboo basket, Shen Ruoqing took out ten catties of soybeans.
"This is this year's new beans, comrade, how much are these? I want them all. β
Shen Ruoqing pondered, she didn't know the price of soybeans.
"You can watch it."
The other party also pondered for a while, he really wanted to quote a low price, but the person who can still take out ten catties of soybeans this year should not be underestimated, after thinking for a long time, the man said: "This soybean is a special commodity, the supply and marketing cooperatives have nothing to sell, the price in the black market has been fried to the range of five to six yuan, comrade, I don't frame you, your soybeans are in good condition, and it is this year's new beans, I will give you six yuan." β
What, the price of soybeans is so high!
Shen Ruoqing's eyes widened, aren't soybeans coarse grains, how did they become special commodities?
In fact, in the 60s, when everyone could not eat enough and had no nutrition, soybeans had high-quality protein and so on can be said to be a good nutritional product.
The man thought that Shen Ruoqing was dissatisfied with the price, and said: "I know that soybeans are rare, but I really didn't lie to you, soybeans are only sold for a few cents a pound in the mall, and this black market has increased more than ten times." β
"I'll sell you five yuan a pound, but I also want industrial coupons and food stamps."
"I still have a few industrial stamps here, but the food stamps are gone, so they are only made of industrial rolls?"
"Yes."
In this way, Shen Ruoqing entered the account with fifty yuan and four industrial coupons.
After buying the soybeans, the man saw that the rice and flour were good, and bought some rice and flour and left.
Before the man left, Shen Ruoqing also asked what was the best-selling thing now.
Now in addition to the staple food, soybeans and peanuts are the most popular! And pork, oil, and all that are hard currency!
The prices of those coarse grains are too low, Shen Ruoqing doesn't sell them, so he sells some fine grains and soybeans and peanuts, which are worth a lot of money!
"Comrade, it's you again, is there still the white face from last time?"
Although Shen Ruoqing wore a hat today, he was still wearing the black coat from last time, this black coat is not cheap, and when he looked closely, there were dark lines, and Shen Xiangbei recognized it immediately. The most important thing is that the entire black market is Shen Ruoqing who wears a black mask.
