Made a lot of money
The middle-aged woman asked: "Where are you from?"
Liu Ye: "Maplewood Town. Yesterday, I met two wild wolves, we fought, and ended up beating them to death."
The reason why he made it so clear was that Liu Ye was afraid that if he accidentally violated any wildlife protection law, he would be arrested as a lawbreaker.
The middle-aged woman was a little suspicious. Her brain seemed to be working rapidly. She was stunned for a while and asked: "How about you? Kill two wild wolves?"
Liu Ye explained sincerely: "Comrade, what I said is true. There are scars on my back and hands."
After that, he opened his shirt, revealing a large and gruesome wound on his back.
The middle-aged woman clicked her tongue twice and said, "You really saved your life. There is a temporary stall over there. You can just pull the flatbed truck to the temporary stall and pay a temporary management fee."
Liu Ye was excited for a while and asked: "How much is it?"
"Two cents."
Li Cuiyu immediately gave the middle-aged woman two cents, and the middle-aged woman issued a temporary receipt.
The flow of people in the vegetable market gradually increased.
Many people hurriedly bought vegetables before rushing to work. The temporary stalls were located at the far end of the vegetable market, and almost no one visited them.
Li Cuiyu, Huahua and Linlin squatted in front of the stall, selling game together with Liu Ye.
Not long after, Huahua and Linlin complained that they were hungry.
Liu Ye: "Cuiyu, take your two children around and buy them some delicious food. Steamed buns, steamed buns, fried dough sticks, tea eggs, bread, etc. are all the children like to eat."
After saying that, Liu Ye took out a two-dollar note from his pocket.
Li Cuiyu glanced at him sideways and asked, "So you hid some private money?"
Liu Ye scratched the back of his head and smiled sheepishly.
That is the last bit of "capital" used for playing cards, and it is now officially handed over to the public.
Watching his wife and daughter disappear happily into the crowd, Liu Ye's eyes became a little moist.
Today was their death anniversary in their previous life.
In this life, they came to the county town from the small mountain village of Yanzi'ao. This was a prosperous world that they had never seen before.
"Hey, how do you sell this game?"
A voice sounded.
Liu Ye looked up and saw two grown men holding vegetable baskets in their hands.
Seeing them, a term immediately came to Liu Ye's mind: buyer!
There are several state-owned enterprises in Raozhou County. These state-owned enterprises have canteens. The buyers in the canteens are responsible for buying vegetables and have great power.
Liu Ye was secretly delighted and asked: "Do you want to buy a wild wolf or a hare?"
One of the buyers laughed and said: "If I buy them all, will it be cheaper?"
"certainly!"
Liu Ye picked up the steelyard and the weights and said, "Wild wolf meat costs two yuan per catty, and hare meat costs two yuan and eighty per catty."
In this day and age, a pound of pork only costs 60 to 70 cents!
The buyer did not bargain with him, but asked: "Where did this game come from?"
Liu Ye: "I did it."
"Did you hit him?"
A trace of distrust flashed across the man's face, and he asked again: "With you?"
Liu Ye took off his shirt, revealing the scars on his back. The shocking look frightened the two buyers.
Next, Liu Ye explained what happened again in detail. His vivid manner seemed to make the buyer feel the crisis at the scene.
One of the buyers said: "With your bravery, you deserve my respect. We have bought all these game meats, and the price will be as you say."
"Xiao Fan, please help me weigh it to see how much it weighs."
The price Liu Ye mentioned was the net weight, which is the weight of the game meat. The buyer didn't seem to care, but asked Xiao Fan to help Liu Ye weigh the gross weight.
"Two wild wolves, one weighing 59 kilograms and the other 62 kilograms. The total is 121 kilograms, two yuan per kilogram, a total of two hundred four hundred and two yuan. The hare weighs 12 kilograms, and each kilogram costs two yuan and eighty yuan, a total of thirty-three six yuan.
The pen totals two hundred and seven, five and six cents. If you discard the change of five and six cents, I'll give you a round number, two hundred and seven and ten cents, how about that?"
The buyer was calculating with a pen on a piece of paper. Before his results came out, Liu Ye had already given the exact number.
A satisfied smile appeared on the buyer's face, and he laughed at himself: Young man, although you are a weakling, your verbal arithmetic ability is better than that of a technical secondary school student like me. Okay, I will do as you say. Xiao Fan, you pay.
"
The buyer continued to explain: "Young man, my surname is Jiang, you can just call me Lao Jiang. Xiao Fan and I are both buyers in the canteen of Pioneer Machinery Factory. Due to business needs, our canteen often entertains business from out of town.
Member, of course we need things like game. But we are not lucky with such a heavy thing. Can you help me pull it on a cart? "
Liu Ye has received 270 yuan, and his heart is not ordinary ecstasy.
He quickly said: "Wait for me for a few minutes. My wife and children are nearby. I can't leave them alone. If we find them, we will help you pull them over."
Soon, Liu Ye found Li Cuiyu and his two daughters in front of a bun shop.
Liu Ye shouted excitedly: "Cuiyu, hurry up, our game is sold."
Huahua and Linlin each held a large meat bun in their hands. Li Cuiyu held four steamed buns in her hand.
She asked in confusion: "So fast? How much did it cost?"
"270 yuan."
Liu Ye explained as he walked.
This number almost frightened Li Cuiyu.
She kept asking: "You didn't lie to me, did you? I haven't been cheated to death by you in the past few years!"
Liu Ye simply stuffed a lot of money into Li Cuiyu's bag and hugged Huahua and Linlin.
Li Cuiyu counted the money as she walked, almost crying.
She married from Lijiacun to Yanzi'ao and lived with Liu Ye, a libertine, for five years. This was the first huge sum of money she had seen!
When we arrived at the temporary stall, Xiao Fan was the only one waiting there.
Xiao Fan smiled and said: "Master Jiang has left first. He has to buy other vegetables. I will take you back to the factory. Thank you for your hard work."
When Liu Ye was about to pull the cart, Xiao Fan added: "Sister-in-law is so beautiful!"
Liu Ye smiled proudly and said: "She is the village beauty of our Yanzi'ao. She is the number one in the whole village!"
Li Cuiyu blushed for a while and cursed: "Can you be more serious? You know how to talk!"
Liu Ye asked his two daughters to sit on the flatbed truck together. The two daughters' mouths were bulging and they were still eating big meat buns. Seeing their enjoyment and happiness, Liu Ye felt sweet in his heart.
In any era, money is king. The days without money are really painful.
After crossing about two streets, they saw a large factory building ahead.
When they arrived at the door, Liu Ye asked his mother and daughter to wait on the roadside near the security room, and he pulled the cart and followed Xiao Fan into the factory.
The guard in the security room saw Xiao Fan leading the way and let him go without saying a word.
