Chapter 41 Want to Save a Phoenix
Chapter 41 Want to save a Phoenix
After coming out of the supply and marketing cooperative, Mrs. Song held her food stamps and entered the state-owned hotel again.
State-owned restaurants have certain dosage and quality standards. One pound of flour and one tael of meat make ten meat buns.
5 cents for a meat bun and one tael of food stamps.
She gritted her teeth and bought ten of them. The hot buns were a bit hot to the touch in the cloth bag.
The two of them walked through half the town and stopped at the entrance of the middle school. Song Ersao, who was familiar with the situation, walked to the guard and told the guard about Song Yidou's class and asked the guard to call him out.
Not long after, Song Yidou ran out covered in sweat, stopped in front of the two of them and panted slightly, with a handsome face full of energy.
"Mom, Sister Yuzhu, are you here to catch the fair?"
"Why are you running in such a hurry?" Sister-in-law Song raised her hand and wiped a handful of sweat from his forehead, "There are no classes today? I brought you some food and will take it to the dormitory and lock it up later."
"If you don't go to school, you'll have to work behind the school." He took the bag and opened it, "Ouch"
The six meat buns and three cakes inside already made his eyes wide open, and then a familiar box was handed over to him.
He quickly pulled Sister-in-law Song's sleeves and walked to the corner under the eaves, "Mom, you dare to buy something as expensive as a hero pen! Go and return it!"
"You can refund whatever you want. I bought everything I bought, including ink." Sister-in-law Song straightened her back and her face was full of pride. "You will be in high school in the second half of the year. It would be more respectable to leave a pen in your pocket."
Song Yidou took the box and touched it again and again, frowning, "Mom, you and Sister Yuzhu are not just selling mountain ginger seeds, right? What should I do if something goes wrong?"
A load of mountain ginger seeds sells for more than 4 yuan, and they buy both food and pens. Most people can't do this.
"Ahem" Sister-in-law Song cleared her throat awkwardly, "Don't worry about adults' affairs!"
In this matter, Er Dou is much cuter than him.
Never say anything depressing.
Song Yidou was so confused that his eyebrows were almost knotted, "Mom, you said you really took advantage of the water tank and brought Sister Yuzhu with you. My uncle will fall out."
"I took it. Where did I take her? It was she who took me."
Song Yidou turned around and glanced at Lin Yuzhu, who was still admiring the inscription on the school gate like a normal person. His mood was quite complicated.
Okay, two water tanks, I'm afraid the village can no longer hold them.
"Does grandpa know?"
"Should...don't know?"
Song Yidou reluctantly touched the pen box in his hand, "How about you take this to see grandpa."
Sister-in-law Song burst into laughter, "Silly boy, just because you like it doesn't mean your grandpa also likes it. Okay, you go back to study. I'll go to the veterinary station to see your grandpa."
Song Yidou turned around and walked away step by step. Song Ersao breathed a long sigh of relief, picked up the burden, called Lin Yuzhu, turned back and jumped through the door.
"I won't go in." Lin Yuzhu rejected Song Ersao's idea of inviting her to go in with her, and pointed to the street across the street, "I'll wait for you over there, and I'll help you sell snakes by the way."
When the father and daughter talk about themselves, it would be so embarrassing for her, an outsider, to stand aside. She might as well feel comfortable outside.
"Okay, then I'll come out to find you later." Sister-in-law Song shook the basket, her brows and eyes filled with happiness.
After making money, she bought soju at the supply and marketing cooperative.
This is what dad likes.
Lin Yuzhu found an empty seat, put a pole on it to sit on, and put the bag with the snake in front of her.
There was nothing else to set up a stall, and the linen bag looked particularly shabby compared to other stalls.
The stalls are very low-key and there are no hawkers.
Occasionally, people pass by and ask curiously, but they are not very interested when they hear it is a snake.
Xiao Dongming had just finished his business and passed by Lin Yuzhu's stall with a relaxed expression. He walked past and then returned.
"Huh? Why are you here?"
At first he didn't pay attention to the woman who had her face buried in her arms. Because the shabby clothes looked familiar, he took a second look.
Lin Yuzhu, who was dozing off due to severe lack of sleep, raised her head, stretched out her foot and kicked the bag gently, "There is still a green bamboo snake that is not for sale."
Xiao Dongming squatted down, picked up the bag and weighed it, "Two or three taels or so, one dollar, I'll take it back and make some wine."
As he took out the money, he said, "Is there any more cake?"
Lin Yuzhu raised her eyebrows, this question was a bit interesting.
The cake was sold and the response was good?
Seeing that Lin Yuzhu didn't reply, he thought for a moment after giving the money, "Come here, I have something to tell you."
There are many people setting up stalls here, and some people always like to look at others and listen to what others are talking about when they have nothing to do. It is inconvenient to talk.
The two walked to a banyan tree far away from the residents. Xiao Dongming casually found a place with not many stones and sat down, with a smile on his heroic face.
"I thought it would be hard to sell, but after people tasted it, they asked me if I had any more, and wanted to buy two more pounds to take to visit relatives."
At first, he was too embarrassed to ask anyone to buy it directly. He cut the remaining half of his meal into pieces with a knife and bought brown paper to wrap them.
I'm going to go to a restaurant and give someone a piece of it to try.
As a result, the first store I went to sold all six cakes, which was not enough.
He sells it for 14 cents a piece and gets one tael of food stamps, so he earns two cents a piece, which is seven or eight cents per kilogram.
He plans to visit a few more stores if he wants more goods. Once he gets a good reputation, he can make money just by delivering them to his doorstep.
"How much do you want?"
"Give me five kilograms first. Will you come to Shanpaiwei tomorrow?"
"I'm going. You can sell me twenty more catties of food stamps and five more catties of candy stamps."
"Okay, then I'll wait for you at the lower dam section."
Lin Yuzhu bought the ticket and thought for a while, "Is there any way you can get me a bicycle coupon?"
The most expensive flying pigeons and eternal pigeons cannot be imagined, but the phoenix can still be saved up.
Walking on two legs every time will waste a lot of time on the road.
In backward places, bicycles are a very important means of transportation.
The corners of Xiao Dongming's mouth twitched. This woman really dared to think about it.
The brigade didn't have many bicycles, and she, a woman, wanted to buy a bicycle.
"The city's employees are allocated one bicycle quota for every 100 employees. Do you think I can get the coupon? Do you think I can ride a bicycle?"
He tugged at the corner of his clothes bitterly and suddenly raised his eyebrows, "Huh? When you mentioned bicycles, I remembered that my relative mentioned it, and it seemed that Nanchang was going to open our own bicycle factory this year."
After listening to this, Lin Yuzhu felt no fluctuation in her heart.
The provincial capital is so far away
What does it have to do with her even if she gives birth?
There are also targets for trial marketing. With so many people in one province, she is not a nationalist, so she probably will have to open it later when it is her turn.
The bicycle matter was put on hold for the time being, since she couldn't afford seventy or eighty yuan to buy black market scalper tickets.
I can only save money and wait.
When Lin Yuzhu returned to the street, Sister-in-law Song had not come out yet, so she went to the grain station to buy some standard flour and rice.
There was no rice at home, and she originally wanted to buy rice to go back to, but she gave up the idea when she thought of human labor to pound the rice.
I decisively spent one yuan and thirty-eight cents to buy ten kilograms of rice.
I bought fifteen kilograms of flour for two yuan and fifty-five cents.
Walking to a place where no one was paying attention, he reached into the basket and put the two bags of grain into the space.
Suddenly she remembered that the small bowls at home were not enough, so she hurried back to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy bowls.
