In the next two months, except for moving Erya's family once, Li Wen basically did nothing.

Go to the black market every few days, join the Youth Writing Association every weekend, or stay at home and write peacefully.

Now the style of Li Wen's works has tended to focus on the themes of this era, mostly with the themes of industry, agriculture, and the country.

The famine has just ended this year, and the country and society have exploded with tremendous strength, focusing on production and promoting people's livelihood everywhere.

Li Wen also clearly felt that in the past two months, there were more smiles and less sadness on people's faces on the street. Of course, it was because they had enough to eat.

I learned from the newspaper that the country was debt-free and had purchased large quantities of grain to stabilize people's livelihood.

In the Youth Daily's reply, Li Wen knew that the manuscripts he mailed had been reviewed. Once these manuscripts are published, they will start to sort them out and publish them into a book.

I have also collected a lot of royalties in the past two months. Basically, I have an income of more than 200 yuan every month.

However, Li Wen has begun to write less these days, and has decided to just publish one or two articles every month from now on.

Li Wen was not short of money. If the cultural center had not repeatedly asked for it, he might have stopped writing directly.

Now Li Wen no longer grows pumpkins, and the pumpkins in Li Wen’s warehouse are basically empty. Without them, they are worthless!

I am going to trade with Brother Jun again tonight. In the past two months, Li Wen has traded with Brother Jun four times, each month at the beginning and middle of the month.

In the past two months, Li Wen also went to the provincial capital and made a deal with Brother Yong in the black market in the city.

In that transaction, Li Wen got a TV ticket. Unfortunately, this thing is currently out of stock. Even in department stores in provincial capitals, it is often out of stock. Li Wen went there twice and failed to buy it.

Li Wen looked at the expiration date of the ticket for two years, and simply threw it in the warehouse. Now that domestic TV has just emerged, there are not many channels, and you can only watch one channel after buying it.

Li Wen is going to sell all the big sheep he has tonight. Li Wen has raised more than 30 piglets in the past two months, and the pig pen is already full.

As the piglets grow older, there will be no room for them in the pig pen. Although the sheep are more valuable, they are much inferior to the fat pigs. Li Wen plans to sell all the lambs when they grow up, and will not raise sheep in the future.

.

In recent times, Li Wen has exchanged a lot of gold from the black market and Jun Ge and others. He also got a lot through the man in the Chinese tunic suit.

Now there are more than 20 kilograms of gold in the space lounge. There are more silver coins, so I just collected half a box.

At night, when the eldest brother and the two fell asleep, Li Wen quietly slipped out of the yard.

Even if Li Wen had space, he was very careful. He remembered the words of later generations, never underestimate the strength and determination of the country.

So every time Li Wen, Brother Jun and others finished trading, they would change places for the second time. They would also explore the terrain in advance to prevent anyone from squatting on him.

Li Wen also knew about Brother Jun’s background. It turned out that Brother Jun had official support behind him.

It has indeed been difficult for ordinary people in recent years, and the officials understand that, so they have not cracked down too much on the black market and the morning pigeon market.

Brother Jun took root in the black market because the government wanted to have some control over the black market so as not to let the black market get out of control.

Li Wen was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat when he found out Brother Jun's identity. Fortunately, he was careful and did not reveal his identity. Otherwise, he would be dead as soon as he found out his details.

Brother Jun also abides by the rules and never asks about the source of materials when trading with Li Wen. He just makes transactions with Li Wen with peace of mind.

Li Wen walked quickly in the dark night. There were constant sounds of insects in the fields. The wheat had begun to turn yellow. Li Wen was planning to return to the village to help with the farming in a few days.

During the busy farming season these days, in addition to regular workers, the production team requires temporary workers and odd-job workers to return to the village to work on the farm.

Of course, at this time, various units in communes and county towns will also take holidays and organize workers to go to the countryside to help farmers work.

Arriving at a collapsed house in the eastern suburbs, Li Wen began to use his mental energy to check. After confirming that no one was there, Li Wen walked in.

Regarding livestock, Li Wen released all four goats in cages, and took out two geese weighing more than ten kilograms, several hundred kilograms of eggs, and dozens of rabbits.

In terms of food, there were one thousand kilograms of potatoes and two hundred kilograms of unhulled rice; they also took out twenty one-kilogram bottles of honey and five cans of milk powder, and unpacked thirty kilograms of biscuits packed in bags from the warehouse.

Recently, the price of coarse grains on the black market has dropped sharply. The price of corn has dropped from 90 cents to 50 cents. Li Wen no longer sells corn and keeps all of it to feed pigs.

The price of meat and non-staple food has been very strong. Li Wen knows the history. Even in the 1980s, pork was a hard currency.

Brother Jun arrived as scheduled at ten past twelve o'clock in the morning. From a distance, Li Wen saw Brother Jun coming with five or six people and an ox cart.

When they got closer, Li Wenxue let out a bird call, and Brother Jun and Lao Tie walked into the yard.

"Brother Jun, we meet again!" Li Wen greeted with a smile and nodded.

"Haha! Brother Xiaomin, what good stuff do you have to offer this time? It won't just be coarse grains this time, right?" Brother Jun asked with a smile.

"The two thousand kilograms of pumpkins from last time are the last ones in stock. We can't keep them when the weather gets hot. We won't be selling them anymore. I think this summer's harvest will be a bumper harvest, but pumpkins will be worthless in the future." Li Wenxiao

He said.

"I have prepared good things this time, including grain, meat, and non-staple food. Brother Jun and Brother Tieniu, let's go into the house and have a look." Li Wen made way and led the two of them to the abandoned house.

"Four goats, little brother is so generous this time! I haven't eaten mutton steamed buns for a long time, and my mouth almost watered when I saw the goats." Lao Tie looked at the goats lying quietly in the corner, his eyes widened, and he said in surprise.

.

"There are almost 200 kilograms of rabbits, more than 400 kilograms of eggs, and two large geese here. Let's make a goose stew in an iron pot to feed more than a dozen people." Li Wen opened the lid on the cage.

black cloth.

"Here are one thousand kilograms of potatoes, two hundred kilograms of unshelled rice, and these non-staple foods. Brother Jun, are you satisfied with them?" Li Wen pointed to the semi-collapsed non-staple foods on the kang.

and food from the earth.

"Is this rice without shells? This stuff is only produced in Qinnan in our province! Brother Xiaomin, your organization is really powerful." Brother Jun grabbed a handful of rice and kneaded it to taste.

Taste it.

"It's not just for one mouthful of food and two extra bucks. These are all the brothers who carried them back over the mountains and ridges with their legs day and night. Brother Jun, you must understand the hardships involved.

Let's go." Li Wen said in a low voice.

"Yes! Nothing is easy. You must have worked hard to get these." Brother Jun threw the rice in his bag into the bag and sighed.

"Okay, don't sigh. Let's take a look at the non-staple food. These are definitely scarce items." Li Wen opened the cardboard box on the kang.

"Pure wild honey, top-quality baby milk powder, and no snowflake biscuits. Brother Jun, let's see if the goods are hard this time." Li Wen opened the box and said with a smile.

"My dear, they are all rare things! I have never seen this milk powder before. I have only received malted milk a few times." The old man on the side opened his mouth wide and exclaimed.

"Come on, let's all try this biscuit. It tastes better, and there's also a sandwich." Li Wen took out a few biscuits and tasted them himself, and handed the rest to Brother Jun and Brother Jun.

"This biscuit actually contains chocolate and sugar?" Brother Jun took a bite of the sandwich biscuit and was shocked by the taste.

"Haha, if the gourmet biscuits from the 21st century can't conquer you, then your development is not in vain." Li Wen secretly laughed in his heart.

"Brother Jun, these biscuits must be good, but they are high-end goods from Tianhai. But this milk powder is even better, they are all imported!" Li Wen picked up a can of milk powder and said with a smile.

"It's still a stainless steel can. This can is only worth a few dollars!" Brother Jun took the milk powder and looked at the can that Li Wen had torn off the packaging and said in surprise.

"These five buckets of milk powder are for children under one year old. If the child's physical fitness is poor, drinking this milk powder for a month can replenish nutrients." Li Wen explained.
