Chapter 17

“Sister, I have ten kilograms of rice and ten kilograms of flour here.” Lu Wan said.

The woman was very happy when she heard it.

Twenty kilograms of fine grain is not a small amount.

“Okay, I want both.”

As she spoke, the woman took out the money and ticket.

A lot of cloth coupons were given, including one worth nine feet, an industrial coupon worth fifteen yuan, and a pastry ticket.

“Big sister, look, are these tickets okay?”

“become!”

Lu Wan took count and was very satisfied.

Seeing the woman so straightforward, Lu Wan said, “Sister, I originally had a chicken, three pounds of meat, and twenty eggs that I didn’t plan to sell.

You are such a straightforward person, I can sell it to you, do you want it?”

When the woman heard this, she almost died of excitement.

These things are not common on the black market.

She wanted to buy meat on the black market, but she might not be able to buy one even if she went ten times. You can imagine how scarce the meat is.

It turns out Lu Wan has it too.

I was so lucky today. Not only did I buy fine grains, but I also came across these good things.

The woman hurriedly asked, “Sister, what is the price…”

“Chicken costs two dollars and a half per pound, and a chicken weighs three pounds, which costs seven dollars and a half.

Meat is two yuan per pound, and eggs are thirty cents each.

Just like with grain, you need to give me some coupons, any coupons will do. Cloth coupons and industrial coupons are best.

Look, how much do you want?”

The woman replied without thinking, “I want both!”

It’s so rare to come across them, wouldn’t it be stupid not to buy them all?

It will not be easy to buy such good things next time.

The weather is not hot now, so the meat will not go bad even if kept for two or three days.

Not to mention eggs, they can be eaten for half a month or a month without going bad.

Three pounds of meat from a chicken is a lot, but there are so many mouths to feed at home!

Moreover, her sister-in-law from her mother’s side had just given birth to a child, and was in need of good things to replenish her body and produce milk for the child.

I’ll buy more this time and give some to my parents.

“Okay, big sister, I’ll give it all to you! The total is nineteen dollars and fifty cents. I’ll give you a zero and count it as nineteen dollars.”

When the woman heard this, she said, “Sister, please don’t give me a discount. I know the price you gave me is already cheap enough. If you give me a discount, you will suffer a loss.

Nineteen dollars and a half is fine, if I buy it at this price, I’ve already made a profit!”

As she spoke, the woman readily took out an extra nineteen dollars and fifty cents from her pocket and handed it to Lu Wan.

As for tickets, they were given twenty feet of cloth, thirty yuan of industrial coupons, ten kilograms of cotton tickets, a coal stove ticket, and two kilograms of sugar tickets.

“Big sister, look, are these tickets enough?

If it’s not enough, I’ll go back and get you some more.”

Lu Wan felt that it was not enough, so she responded, “That’s enough, that’s enough.”

The woman smiled and said, “That’s fine.”

The woman took the things she bought and quickly put them in a basket and covered them with a black cloth, for fear that others would see them.

“Big sister, I’ll go back first!” The woman waved at Lu Wan.

“Sister, wait a minute.

Please leave me your address, and if I have more goods, I will send them to you later.”

It’s rare to meet a reliable customer, so Lu Wan wants to take the initiative to keep him.

When the woman heard this, she responded happily and then gave her name and address.

Lu Wan took out a small notebook and wrote it down.

The woman’s name was Huang Yan. She left after leaving her address.

Lu Wan made two more shipments on the black market.

The other two trips earned a total of thirty-six yuan. As for tickets, I exchanged some 20-jin cotton tickets, 15-foot cloth tickets, and 3-jin sugar tickets.

Together with the remaining money and tickets her parents sent her, it was enough for her to buy a few sets of clothes for herself and Su Zhenhua and prepare a dowry.

Cloth coupons can be used to buy clothes, as well as bed sheets and quilt covers.

Thirty kilograms of cotton coupons can buy four thick quilts. Two mattress quilts and two cover quilts are just right.

The industrial coupons were enough to buy things like enameled pots and thermoses.

Sugar tickets are also useful. When two people get married, they can buy some candies.

In this era, only people in the city could afford candy for weddings. People in the countryside rarely prepared candy for weddings.

Because it is not easy to get candy coupons, and a pound of candy is not cheap. ..

She will be getting married to Su Zhenhua, and she will be able to get some candy, so her wedding will definitely be more grand.

In this life, she not only wants to marry Su Zhenhua, but also wants to marry him gloriously.

The coal stove ticket that Huang Yan gave me can be used to buy a coal stove.

Most of the time in the countryside, people burn firewood and use earthen stoves, but if there is a coal stove, it is also very convenient to use it.

It never hurts to have one at home.

Seeing that the time was almost right, Lu Wan went to the address Zhao Yuguang left.

Zhao Yuguang was already waiting for Lu Wan at home. Seeing that she hadn’t come yet, he felt uneasy and was afraid that Lu Wan had sold the things to someone else.

Now seeing Lu Wan coming over, I can finally feel relieved.

“Big sister, you are finally here.

I have changed the bicycle ticket for you, but can you keep the things for me?”

Lu Wan nodded, “Yes, they are all here!”

“Okay then, you…you hurry into the house and talk.”

Zhao Yuguang invited Lu Wan into the yard.

Lu Wan was not afraid of what Zhao Yuguang would do to her.

She took out a stun gun and anti-wolf spray from the shopping mall and prepared them.

If anyone dares to attack her, she will electrocute him or spray him to death!

While waiting for Lu Wan to come in, Zhao Yuguang quickly closed the gate.

After all, speculation is prohibited in this era, so you have to be careful when buying and selling, otherwise you will be finished if you are discovered and reported.

“Big sister, how much is this per pound? I’ll pay you!”

Zhao Yugang hadn’t asked about the price before, thinking that the fine grains sold by Lu Wan were cheap, and that other things shouldn’t be priced so high either.

Lu Wan said, “Pork is two yuan per catty, chicken is two yuan and a half per catty, and the chicken I gave you is three catties and two ounces, so I’ll charge you three catties.

An egg costs thirty cents each, and bacon costs two dollars and fifty cents each.

I have two pounds of meat, a chicken, thirty eggs, and five pounds of bacon, which costs thirty-three yuan in total. “

When Zhao Yuguang saw that Lu Wan had reported the price and quantity in detail, he also calculated it himself and found the numbers were correct, so he readily paid out thirty-three yuan and a borrowed bicycle ticket.

Lu Wan took the money and ticket and left.

I made a total of ninety-four dollars and fifty cents from several shipments on the black market today, which is almost one hundred dollars. If I add a few dollars of my own, I can buy a bicycle.

She counted the money her parents sent her and found that there was still more than 120 yuan left.

This amount of money is enough for me to buy a lot of things, at least enough to buy what I need to marry Su Zhenhua.

After Lu Wan left Zhao Yuguang’s house, she went to the portable mall first.

It was already past twelve o’clock, and the little food she had eaten in the morning had long been digested. In addition, after being busy all morning, Lu Wan was already hungry.

Lu Wan went to the shopping mall, found a noodle shop, and ordered a bowl of delicious beef noodles and two pieces of braised dried tofu. After eating, she felt so full.
