Wearing books about young educated youth in the 70s

"About eighty or ninety pounds..."

Seeing her suspicious look, Xu Xiaoyu explained lightly.

"I don't have the stuff on me. I just came to look at the road. If the buyer is confirmed, I will drag the stuff over right away..."

The aunt hesitated for a moment. Even though she knew that this girl might be a liar, she still could not resist the temptation.

"Okay... you tell me a price. As long as it's suitable, I'll give you 10 pounds."

This is meat. It is a rare commodity in the black market. Whenever it comes out, people rush to grab it. They can't get the meat at the supply and sales counter, and they don't have so many meat tickets. They can only try their luck here...

If I can really buy ten kilograms of meat today, I can go back and make a delicious dumpling meal for the two boys, and give some of the rest to my parents-in-law and sister-in-law, and then give some to my parents' siblings, so that the whole family can eat meat.

Xu Xiaoyu thought about the current meat price and set a price that was similar to the black market meat price.

"One dollar and fifty cents per pound, no ticket required... But before I sell you something, can you tell me the real location of the black market?"

There are only three or two stalls here, and they are displayed carelessly on the outside. It doesn’t take much thinking to know that this is definitely not the place she is looking for. These stalls are probably specially set up here to spread information. I’m afraid the real black market is much more Be more hidden.

My aunt is also very satisfied with this price. The black market has a serious premium. Usually, the price of meat soars to two yuan and someone will buy it. This price is quite satisfactory.

She didn't hide it, looked around, quietly pulled Xu Xiaoyu to a remote corner, pushed open a wooden door that looked like a pile of rags, and greeted her to come in.

"..."

Xu Xiaoyu really didn't expect that the legendary black market was in a place like this. If you didn't look carefully, who would have thought that it was a door. Some people believed it when they said it was a garbage dump.

But it’s just so that it doesn’t attract attention.

Along a narrow dark path, the two of them walked for more than a minute before arriving at the real black market. This place was more like an indoor place. There was only a window on the shed for ventilation, and the rest of the place was tightly covered, so It doesn't smell good.

Compared with the place just now, there are obviously more people here. Both men and women have their heads covered, and few of them show their faces. They gather in groups of twos and threes in front of the stalls and whisper about prices.

There are many stalls here, and they are all kinds of, selling everything. If there are many people around any stall, it is designated as something related to food.

Xu Xiaoyu said hello to her aunt, borrowed a cart, turned to a corner and took out the meat. After thinking about it, she smeared some mud on her face before pushing the thing out.

The people who came to the black market were all sharp-edged and thieves, and the small stall that Xu Xiaoyu was pushing was not blocked. Almost as soon as it was pushed out, a large number of people surrounded it.

Everyone was like hungry wolves when they saw the meat. They were all surprised and rushed forward, took out the money in their pockets, and handed it forward as hard as they could.

"My mother, so much meat..."

"What kind of meat are you selling? I've been waiting here all day, and finally I've found a meat seller. The children at home want to eat meat every day, and I'm worried..."

"Stop talking nonsense... Do you want to buy it? If you don't want to buy it, get out of the way and let us buy it! Girl, what's your price? I want 5 pounds!"

"Buy! I also want 5 pounds! Don't push me..."

"Give me a step, I want 10 pounds! Cut me some more fat meat... I can also go home and practice cooking with lard... Don't push me!"

"..."

Xu Xiaoyu was shocked. She thought that meat would be very popular, but she didn't expect that these people would fight over each other. Judging from the appearance of these people, their family conditions should be pretty good, otherwise they would not have the money to buy so much meat.

She took a cursory look at the number of people and quickly lowered her voice and shouted.

"Each person is limited to buying five kilograms! You can only buy five kilograms! If you want it, hurry up and line up, first come, first served! If you keep arguing, I won't sell it!"

As soon as the words fell, the eldest brothers and sisters lined up neatly in an instant. Although there were still some minor disputes, it was much better than before.

"Girl, five pounds is really not enough! Our family of seven is just waiting for this little bit of meat. I'm also thinking of giving some more to my sisters. What's this purchase restriction? This little bit of meat isn't enough for us. Sewn…”

"Yes... the girls and boys at home have been waiting for this meal. They have been looking forward to it for a long time. I also want to make celery and pork dumplings. Just sell more of them!"

Xu Xiaoyu refused.

"I only brought this meat with me on this trip. I originally wanted everyone to taste the meat. If you buy too much, the people behind you will be gone..."

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, the woman who had called her the happiest just lost her temper. With all the eyes staring at her behind her, she could only buy five kilograms honestly.

Thinking of the different taste of Huanyan beast meat from pork, she specifically emphasized that it is a new variety of pork, with more lean meat and less fat. It tastes delicious no matter how you cook it. If you put it in a pot and stir-fry it, it will be fragrant on your tongue. It will offend your tongue. Everyone was drooling all over the floor.

Not to mention children in this era, adults are also greedy for meat. They have no meat taste in their mouths all year round. Either they have money and no tickets to buy it, or they can’t get meat from the supply company. The meat distributed by the work unit every year is simply not enough. Gap between teeth.

Everyone felt a little regretful when they heard that there was little fat.

Why is this pig so ignorant?It's a little leaner, and it won't produce any oil when cooking. However, lean meat is also meat, and no one dares to complain about it. This little bit of meat was sold out in less than 10 minutes.

There was a limit of five kilograms per person, but many people didn't buy it. Xu Xiaoyu could only promise to bring more next time to get out.

After finally sending these people away, she turned around and secretly took out another ten kilograms of meat, found a piece of cloth to cover it, and found her aunt who had brought her in not far away.

"Sorry, Auntie, there were too many people just now, so I couldn't take care of you. Look, these 10 kilograms of meat are all here. If you are worried, we can borrow a name to make sure we are right."

The aunt was stunned, then smiled and waved her hand.

"No need, I can tell at a glance that the weight is correct... You girl, you are so sincere. I thought you had sold out all the people in the circle just now. Why did you remember to leave ten pounds for your aunt?"

"That's right, we can't be a person without credibility. We must do what we promise."

The two of them paid with one hand and delivered the goods with the other.

Today, eight or ninety kilograms of meat were sold during this trip. Xu Xiaoyu also made about 100 yuan, and there was still a few dozen kilograms of meat left for her own consumption.

She didn't expect much money from selling the meat this time. After all, the money she received just now was not even half as much as the Ruo Bamboo Beast cloth.

But to be honest, the audience for that piece of fabric is still too high-end. It was just a coincidence that the right person took over this time. I’m afraid it won’t sell out so quickly next time.

Generally speaking, it is faster to make money by selling things on the black market.

Xu Xiaoyu decided to bring more meat in exchange for more meat after returning, and find an opportunity to come to the county again. Then she could change her image so as not to attract attention.
