Chapter 29: Pigeon Market Trading
"Stop! ~What are you doing! ”
The sudden shouting made Guan Ping and Zhang Bao stunned in place, and after a while, they reacted, Lao Tzu was moving things and was not in the pigeon market, what are you afraid of!
As soon as he turned around, he was about to go crazy, "You are a king...... Wang ......"
"King what?" Su Xiaoqiang asked with a smile.
"Brother Su, why are you here? What a coincidence. The two of them were relieved when they saw that it was Su Xiaoqiang, although they were not afraid, it was not safe to be found so many old things.
"You two are doing a great job, these things are antiques, where did they come from?"
Su Xiaoqiang didn't answer them, but approached an altar and looked at it, of course Su Xiaoqiang didn't understand these things, but now there are very few fake things, and after 66 years, it is estimated that they will not be able to keep them.
"Hehe, we're both doing a good thing." Guan Ping said that they originally admired Su Xiaoqiang's ability to fight, and after this period of getting along, the two had nothing to say to Su Xiaoqiang.
"A good thing?" Su Xiaoqiang asked with a frown.
"Now everyone is short of food, although we are not the boss of the pigeon city, but we have also mixed for many years, the reputation is leveraged, these are old customers stored in us, so that we have the opportunity to help exchange some food." Zhang Bao explained.
Su Xiaoqiang's eyes lit up, what a chance, and then asked with a smile: "I see, you guys will be so kind?" It's not a lot of money, right? ”
"Just a little fee, no more, no more."
"Do you have access to food?"
"In the past, there were ......," Guan Ping said, "since the second half of this year, there have been fewer of them, and now they can't even find sweet potatoes. ”
"What is the price of sweet potatoes now?" Su Xiaoqiang looked at these old things and felt that it would be good if he could collect a little.
"Rice and white flour are now 8 cents a catty, cornmeal is 4 cents a catty, and sweet potatoes are 1.2 cents a catty."
Su Xiaoqiang nodded, this price is about the same as he estimated, "It is estimated that the price will increase." ”
"Yes, this has risen several times, but the price has no intention of stopping, I estimate that it may rise to a few yuan a pound in two months." Zhang Bao took out the account book and checked it and said, "Does Brother Su also need food?" ”
Guan Ping also looked over, these days the leftovers in the state-run hotel are getting less and less, so there are fewer to bring back, and it is estimated that it will be difficult in two months.
"I don't lack food, but I want to sell it." Su Xiaoqiang has a hunch that he won the skill of a poison doctor in the lottery today, and in the next few months, all the food may be sucked out, and the food in the warehouse cannot be eaten now.
The two were shocked, they didn't expect Su Xiaoqiang to sell grain, and now the people who can get food are people with big backgrounds.
"Hehe, Brother Su, I'll pinch it for you, what do you think of the two of us......" Guan Ping will come to something, and immediately came up with a flattering face.
"It's the wrong person to please the wrong person, I don't know the grain merchant, I also use money to do things, he has 5,000 catties of sweet potatoes over there, can he eat it?" Su Xiaoqiang didn't take it all out, anyway, the trickle is long, and there will be time to come out slowly in the future, and it is easy to have an accident if there is too much.
"But I can eat it too much, I can eat ten times more!" Zhang Bao thought that there were only a few hundred catties, but he didn't expect so much, and immediately said that there was no problem.
As soon as Guan Ping heard Zhang Bao say that there was no problem, it was no problem, and it was estimated that the people who booked it were not enough.
"Okay, I'll tell him to send it, but if you want to give me the money, it's up to you to believe me or not." Su Xiaoqiang deliberately mentioned money.
"Brother Su, do you see if you can exchange it for antiques? Come in and take a look, pick whatever you like......" Guan Ping pulled Su Xiaoqiang to the inner room, only to see that the room was full of old things, how many things did these two guys receive.
"It's not impossible, it's just that how to calculate the price, you also know that food is precious now, antiques can't be eaten, and it must not be too expensive." Su Xiaoqiang also saw rosewood tables and chairs in it, which were not too beautiful.
"These things are all market-priced, but now they are all in a hurry to ask for food, all of them are discounted by 5%, and they can't survive, what's the use of asking for antiques."
Guan Ping pointed to a blue and white porcelain and said, "For example, this thing usually costs 50 yuan, but now it only costs 20, and this copper lock costs 10 yuan, and this table is cheaper, and the host almost took it to split the fire, and I collected 5 yuan for ......."
Guan Ping introduced the past one by one, and Su Xiaoqiang, who listened, drooled.
"And these things have been depreciating, if it weren't for the different prices, I would have wanted to sell them by the pound."
Zhang Bao also had a headache when he looked at a room of things, all the things he had collected recently were antiques, and he still used money to collect them at first, but then he didn't have any money to collect them, so he simply didn't want money and put them here to see if he could exchange them for some food.
"I can see that the reputation of the two of you is really good!" Su Xiaoqiang admired these two boys a little.
"Hehe, although the pigeon market is also called the black market, it is not black, it is the place where everyone lives." Guan Ping said with a smile.
Next, Su Xiaoqiang picked up antiques for 600 yuan, and in the end, Guan Ping and Zhang Bao gave three more pieces, according to their meaning, these two more pieces can also make people share some sweet potatoes to eat.
It was agreed that it would be shipped here at 12 o'clock in the evening, and someone would inform you where it would be shipped at that time, and then the two sides would meet again to trade.
After finishing the matter, Su Xiaoqiang returned to the courtyard, and it was already around five o'clock in the evening.
When I passed by the courtyard opposite, I saw that the stupid pillar inside was pressing Xu Damao.
This Xu Damao is also interesting, he can't beat the stupid pillar every time, and he doesn't admit defeat every time, but he ...... The stupid pillar was still angry after the fight, and he kicked Xu Damao's lower body.
Ruthless enough, but it's none of his business, and Yan Bugui nodded and signaled, Su Xiaoqiang went back to the house without pausing.
"Uncle, look at my little schoolbag~ Mom made it!" When the eldest girl saw Su Xiaoqiang coming back, she immediately walked around in front of Su Xiaoqiang with a cloth bag on her back, and she could see that she was very happy.
"Sister-in-law's skills are good, why don't we buy a sewing machine?" Looking at this simple stitched bag, it looks so good, if there is a sewing machine, it will not be heavenly.
"No, no, why spend that money, it's better to save it." Lu Baolian has discussed with Su Daqiang, and in the future, they will pay for Su Xiaoqiang's marriage, and they will not save money for the scenery they want to do.
Yao Erniang also came over and said, "You bought a sewing machine, and I really have nothing to do at home, so I can't have an accident." ”
"Mom, you can go and fight with Jia Zhang, I think she wants to fight you again." These days, Jia Zhang's family began to gradually move outside, and the most was the door of this courtyard, which was really unconvinced.
"I don't have the same knowledge as her, as long as I don't do anything disgusting, I don't bother to pay attention to her." Yao Erniang also smiled knowingly, she gradually got used to life in the city, in fact, it was similar to the countryside, when she first came, most of them looked down on their own country people, so this was not convinced.
"I'm afraid now that the big girl will be looked down upon and bullied by her classmates at school."
Bullying ...... There are in every era, and there will be one in any school you go to, and if you can't bully, you will be isolated, which is also the reason why Su Xiaoqiang is so flattering to Yan Bugui, at least he can always grasp what the situation of the eldest girl is in school.
