Chapter 88 Buying Wild Boar Cubs

The rising sun, like duck egg yolk, is hidden behind the mountains and peeks at the earth.

Perhaps it was frightened by the greedy people in this land. It was hesitant and timid, but refused to show its head.

A few faint rays of rays of light were brave enough to sneak into the woods.

The light was torn into pieces by the branches on the trees, and the mottled golden fragments were scattered on everyone in the forest, just like the leopards lurking in the dense forest.

The dozen or so mushrooms in Luo Xuan's hand had already been sold out.

It was sold for exactly 18 yuan.

As for the hornet's nest, they got rid of it earlier.

In fact, to sell a honeycomb, you have to split it in half and show the bee pupae inside to others, so that it can be sold easily.

This kind of selling method is called "bright eye".

But because Luo Xuan came too early.

There is insufficient light in the woods, so even if you open the wasp's nest, others cannot see clearly the color of the bee pupae inside.

So that hornet's nest, Luo Xuan finally had to sell the whole thing.

Whether there are more or less bee pupae inside, good or bad, everyone can only rely on luck.

This kind of selling method is called "estimation heap heap".

People who buy honeycombs, pick up the honeycomb and smell it, will know that it is not an abandoned honeycomb.

Then shake it again and weigh the honeycomb, and you can make a rough estimate in your mind.

In the end, the honeycomb was sold for 5 yuan and 50 cents.

Now that you have money in your pocket, you have to spend it before it can be called money.

Otherwise, it's just a pile of colored paper.

Luo Xuan took the money, looked around in the woods, and compared repeatedly. Finally, he bought a two-liang-five candy ticket for 4 yuan and 20 cents per catty.

I bought 50 kilograms of fine grain stamps at 1.8 cents per kilogram.

I also bought 50 kilograms of coarse grain coupons for 6 cents per kilogram.

Now you can also exchange money for food.

Luo Xuan planned to eat as much refined grains as possible from outside. As for the feed for the chickens and rabbits, he would also buy as much as possible from outside.

When putting food stamps into the space, Luo Xuan only took a look at what Chen Xiaoduan had stuffed for him earlier.

It turned out to be two 10-pound [General Food Stamps in Bashu Province]!

The current food stamps are divided into county food stamps, xx provincial food stamps, and national food stamps.

The most valuable among them is undoubtedly the national food stamps, which can be used all over the country.

Next.

Food stamps in the province are hard to come by. Only those in the unit who need to go on a business trip can go to the food stamp station and redeem the appropriate amount of food stamps with the [business trip certificate from xx unit].

Among all food stamps, the gold content of food stamps in the county is slightly lower.

For example, the 50 kilograms of fine grain stamps I just bought cost 1.8 cents per kilogram.

But the two provincial general food stamps that Chen Xiaoduan gave him, according to the market prices that Luo Xuan just found after wandering around the market, would cost at least 20.1 cents per catty.

Hide food stamps in the space.

Luo Xuan then casually used the pen he borrowed from production team leader Peng Zhikun earlier to write out a [Travel Certificate] for himself, and stepped out of the space.

While Luo Xuan was wandering in the market, he was waiting for Liu Fugui to finish his work so that he could set off to the county town with him.

The frog market closes very early.

By the time Taiyang fearfully climbed to the top of the mountain and lay down to watch, the people in the market had mostly dispersed.

But although there are not many people in the market, those responsible for maintaining order and taking charge of the scales are the first to come and the last to leave every time.

So as long as there are still some customers lingering in the market, Liu Fugui and the others will not be able to get away for the time being.

Nothing to do, Luo Xuan is bored...

But I saw a young woman carrying a basket on her back to the market with difficulty.

From time to time, there could be heard the faint chirping sounds of piglets in the backpack.

No need to ask, this is the person who is going to sell the piglets.

It's just that during this period, private households were no longer allowed to raise pigs. But this woman carried piglets to the frog market to sell?

This strange behavior of the young woman couldn't help but make everyone feel curious. Some people gathered around and started asking questions.

The woman explained: These were some wild boar cubs that her man took out from a wild boar nest in the mountains.

While this woman's man was catching wild boar cubs, he encountered a large wild boar that had returned from foraging for food.

The wild boar and the woman's man, who were eager to protect their children, experienced a life-and-death struggle, and eventually both lost their footing and fell down the cliff.

Among the rocks, both a person and a pig were seriously injured.

By the time the members of the production team found the woman's man at the foot of the cliff, the female wild boar had already struggled to escape.

Now her husband is in urgent need of medical expenses.

That's why this woman sold all the food at home and went to the market with a few wild boar cubs on her back to try her luck.

The young woman also knew that no one would buy her wild boar cubs at the government-run livestock market.

So she went to the frog market to see if anyone would buy wild boar cubs to kill for meat.

No one will raise pigs, and many people will never raise pigs in their lives.

Most people can only eat meat if they get a little bit of pork from the production team at the end of the year.

in this way.

During this period, no one would raise domestic pigs, let alone wild boar cubs.

So everyone looked at the 6 little wild boar cubs in their backpacks to see if they could get a bargain and buy them back to kill for meat.

The little wild boar piglets are too small, weighing only 4 or 5 pounds each, and they look like they haven't been weaned yet.

Since the piglets had not eaten for several days, these wild boar piglets were starved to death and lay motionless.

Someone asked: "How much are you going to sell it for?"

The woman obviously rarely goes out and has little contact with outsiders. She timidly said: "I, I don't know how much I should sell it for. Just do your best and give me a price. My man is here

The township hospital is waiting for this life-saving money."

After arguing for a long time, someone finally made a bid: "2 yuan each?"

As soon as the man finished speaking, someone immediately laughed at him: "What a loss for the 2 yuan you paid! That's foreign money, is it more valuable?"

When the man heard this, he was immediately unconvinced: "Open your eyes and take a look! Is there any fat on this skinny piglet? Kill it out and shave off the intestines, bones, and bristles. It can weigh 2 pounds."

Isn’t it half meat?”

Piglets are more expensive than fat pigs, and pork is more expensive than live pigs. This is a truth that everyone knows.

But the piglets mentioned here are piglets born from domestic pigs. Others buy them for breeding, rather than killing them for meat.

When the people watching heard this, many of them nodded in agreement: "That's right, there is no oily smell in the belly of this little pig, and there is really no meat when it is killed."

Someone also tried to persuade the woman: "Two yuan is a lot. In my opinion, just sell it!"

You also know the current market situation. How much does a kilogram of deboned meat in the food station cost?

Even the best fat meat is only a little over 5 cents. If you buy a pound of meat stamps and spend another 5 cents, it adds up to only 1 yuan and 1 cents.

Calculating that your little piglets cost 2 yuan each, they are much more expensive than the meat sold at the food station."

The woman looked like she had really not had much interaction with people from the outside world.

She saw so many people all of a sudden, talking around her.

She had nowhere to place her cramped hands, and her eyes looked around blankly.

When her eyes rested on Luo Xuan, she paused slightly.

He lowered his eyes and looked at the piggy in his basket with a sad face, feeling at a loss for a moment.

"Do you want to sell them for 2 yuan and 5 each? I want them all."

Luo Xuan stepped forward and said, "If you sell it, then give me this basket as well, because I have nothing to do and carry the piglet back."

When the onlookers saw someone paying a high price, they couldn't say anything more.

It’s just that everyone secretly cursed in their hearts: I don’t know where this young man came from!

Why did you suddenly add 50 cents per piece?

Others counter-offer 2 yuan. If the woman doesn't sell, the price will be 2 yuan and 10 cents, 2 yuan and 15 cents, 2 yuan and 18 cents, and so on.

It is estimated that in the end, it will only cost 2 yuan and 2 cents each, so you can buy these piglets.

How could this guy be so cool and add 50 cents to his salary all of a sudden?!

Luo Xuan ignored everyone and took out 15 yuan to buy all the piglets and their baskets.

Buy wild boar cubs.

Luo Xuan put the basket on his back and walked to a small forest far away from "Nanhua Palace".

After resting for a while and repeatedly confirming that no one was paying attention, Luo Xuan stepped into the space and took the piglet out of the basket.

Feed them some spring water, and the piglets will feel much better after a while.

The piglets on the side were drinking spring water, while Luo Xuan cooked some rice porridge in a casserole.

Luo Xuan was going to feed the piglets with rice soup to see if they could be revived.

It's best to save him.

If that doesn't work, then you'll have to eat roasted suckling pig.
