The Orphan's Counterattack in the 1970s

Chapter 42 Selling goods in family homes

Wang Juan saw that Chen Xiaolin really couldn't get up, so she could only help her pick up the backpack. Then she accidentally saw the eggs in Chen Xiaolin's basket, and was pleasantly surprised. Her daughter-in-law gave birth to a grandson for her yesterday. She originally planned to go to the black market to buy some eggs for her daughter-in-law today. Wasn't she going to give her a pillow because she was sleepy? She quickly pulled Chen Xiaolin into a corner.

"Young man, how do you sell your eggs?"

"It's a dime each. I have fifty here. If you want them all, I'll give you four and eight dollars." If Chen Xiaolin didn't have too many eggs, she wouldn't be willing to sell them. Many of her eggs have double yolks.

"Okay, I want them all. What else do you have besides eggs? Can you get pig's trotters?"

"I have meat, pig's trotters, and brown sugar. I also have rice and flour, but not much. If you want, wait here for ten minutes, and I will go to my friend's place to get the things." These rice and flour are specially used by Chen Xiaolin. The machines in the village made it, and she didn't dare to sell the rice and flour she had hoarded.

Wang Juan thought for a moment and thought it was okay. This was the family home of the machinery factory anyway, so she wasn't afraid of any tricks he might play.

Chen Xiaolin picked out all the eggs and put them in Wang Juan's vegetable basket, then picked up the basket and left.

Walking along the machinery factory, she came to the courtyard of the textile factory.

Chen Xiaolin put another ten pounds of pork belly and fifty eggs in the basket.

Chen Xiaolin saw an old woman wearing a dark blue top and black pants who was smiling all the way.

This time she didn't dare to pretend to bump into him, for fear of accidentally knocking the old man down

Chen Xiaolin quietly walked up to her and asked her in a voice that only two people could hear: "Auntie, do you want pork?"

After hearing what Chen Xiaolin said, Mrs. Liu quickly took Chen Xiaolin to find a corner where no one could see her.

"Young man, how much meat do you have? Show me."

Chen Xiaolin opened the cloth on the backpack and let the other party take a look at the contents of the backpack.

"How about it, do you want it?"

"Young man, I want all these things, can you make it cheaper?" Mrs. Liu's eldest son is the director of a textile factory. Her family is not short of money, but now she can't buy anything even if she has money, so when she saw Chen Xiaolin She was going to buy all the meat in the basket and make it into bacon and save it for later eating.

"Auntie, my meat is all high-quality pork belly. It can be sold for one and a half kilograms on the black market. I have ten kilograms here. Just give me twelve yuan. Or eggs, which are ten cents each. I have them here. Fifty, if you take everything in my backpack, just give me sixteen dollars."

"Okay, then sell it all to me! But can you lend me your backpack? I will take it out to you later." Mrs. Liu saw that the price offered by Chen Xiaolin was quite reasonable, so she brought him the things Buy them all.

"Okay, then I'll wait for you here. By the way, aunt, do you want to buy a watch? I also have an electronic watch here." Chen Xiaolin took the money from Mrs. Liu's hand and suddenly thought that she had not sold any of her watches. .

"Show me? How much does one cost?" Mrs. Liu thought that her eldest grandson had always wanted a watch, but had never had a ticket. If the price was right, she planned to buy him one.

Chen Xiaolin took out the watch from her pocket and gave it to Mrs. Liu. "Eighty-eight yuan a piece without tickets, and then I will give you two small batteries."

Mrs. Liu looked at the black watch in front of her, and she felt that her eldest grandson would definitely like it. "Then wait for me, I'll go back and get the money."

Not long after, Chen Xiaolin saw Mrs. Liu walking over with a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old.

"Young man, please quickly take out your watch and show it to my eldest grandson."

Chen Xiaolin could only put the watch back into her pocket and take it out again.

Mrs. Liu and her eldest grandson took the watch and looked at it. She thought it was really good, so she nodded and asked her grandma to give the money to Chen Xiaolin.

Mrs. Liu saw that her eldest grandson liked this watch so much, so she readily gave the money to him.

"Young man, remember to come and find me next time you have meat! I live on the first floor of the last building in the textile factory's courtyard. If you tell the security guard to ask for Aunt Liu, he will let you in." Mrs. Liu saw Chen Xiaolin taking Coming here with so much meat and eggs to sell, you knew there was someone behind him.

"Auntie, don't worry! I won't forget you if there are good things." This transaction with Mrs. Liu went very smoothly for Chen Xiaolin. Next time Chen Xiaolin comes to the county, she might consider coming over and selling some things to her. Hers.

Chen Xiaolin left the courtyard of the textile factory and took out two pig's trotters, two old hens that couldn't lay eggs, two pounds of brown sugar, and ten pounds of pork belly and put them in a basket on her back.

She was always vigilant, especially when she returned to the machinery factory. She waited and watched for a long time and found that Wang Juan was the only one at the door, so she quietly walked over.

"Auntie, I'm here."

"Young man, you are finally here. I thought you lied to me!" Wang Juan has been waiting at the door for a long time, just waiting for Chen Xiaolin to bring pig trotters. Her daughter-in-law still needs pig trotters for milk!

"It's a long way to go! Sorry to keep you waiting."

"How do you sell these pig's trotters and meat?" Wang Juan saw that in addition to two pig's trotters, there was also a large piece of good pork belly in Chen Xiaolin's backpack.

"The two pig's trotters total ten kilograms, and the pork belly is also ten kilograms. The pig's trotters are fifteen yuan, and the pork belly is twelve yuan. I also have two kilograms of brown sugar here. If you want it, I'll give you three yuan."

Wang Juan thought for a while and felt that she could just take them all. When the time comes, several relatives will share one share, and each family will not be able to share much. "Okay, I'll take it all, it's thirty yuan in total, right?"

"Well, that's right." Chen Xiaolin saw someone coming out of the family courtyard and left in a hurry.

It was almost noon when she left the machinery factory's courtyard. Chen Xiaolin first went to find an unoccupied house, secretly took off her makeup and changed her clothes. Then he went to a state-owned restaurant to eat alone with a backpack on his back.

Chen Xiaolin saw that white-flour steamed buns were available on the blackboard, so she ordered twenty of them. Although she can also make steamed buns, her cooking skills really need to be improved.

Chen Xiaolin came early today, and there were still braised pork and pot-roasted pork. Chen Xiaolin ordered one portion of each, planning to pack it up and eat it later.

The taste of pork from this era is really unforgettable.

This also makes Chen Xiaolin look forward to the two pigs at home even more. She plans to go back and feed them more food, and strive to achieve pork freedom before the year
