Fast Travel: A Record of Unusual Creatures

Fifty kilograms of rice, ten eggs, and the bamboo basket were really heavy when put together, but Mrs. Huang was not strenuous at all. She could even be said to be brisk. She just carried the things on her back and walked away. At the same time, she was almost happy to death. .

It was really hard not to laugh.

Because this deal is so profitable.

That extra pound of salt was exchanged by Mrs. Huang for more than two eggs. Even if rounded up, it would be equivalent to three eggs at most. But now, she has exchanged this extra pound of salt for five things. Ten pounds of rice and ten eggs. These eggs alone can be exchanged for five pounds of salt. It is really a crazy profit.

And of course those fifty pounds of rice are more expensive.

Not to mention selling it on the black market, but selling it to supply and marketing cooperatives on the market, which requires food stamps.

They can all be sold for ten yuan.

With her two children, her daily work points add up to about [-] cents. If they could just save their work points to exchange for this money, they would have to save for three months.

It's really exciting to think about it.

You can earn so much by flipping a pound of salt like this.

It's simply a money grab.

Old Mrs. Huang, who was walking a little unsteadily, did not ask her granddaughter to activate the space door to go back until she was far away from the village where she exchanged rice. Then she put down the bamboo basket, hugged the bamboo basket and the basket of rice, and laughed until tears came to her eyes. .

I was so emotional that I couldn't control myself.

Although Huang Xiaoxiao and Huang Ping'an beside them could not fully understand Mrs. Huang's excitement at this time, they were equally happy because having so much more rice at home would undoubtedly mean that the porridge they would drink in the future would be slightly thicker.

Maybe I can have rice porridge if I have a chance. It's just rice, no wild vegetables, sweet potatoes or other rice porridge.

Just thinking about it makes me feel happy and looking forward to it.

At this time, Qu Jie also appeared, and when she saw Huang Xiaoxiao and Huang Ping'an swallowing saliva and touching their stomachs, she couldn't help but suggested:

"Grandma Huang, why don't you cook some rice.

The first transaction was so successful, which shows that the future is promising. There should be no shortage of food in the future. Xiaoxiao, Ping An, and you have just walked a lot.

Consumption can be much greater than usual. "

As Qu Jie finished speaking, Huang Xiaoxiao and Huang Ping'an nodded hurriedly with expectant faces.

Energy is conserved. They walked a lot today and were naturally hungrier than usual. If there was no food at home, they might still be able to endure it, but there was clearly an extra fifty kilograms of rice and ten eggs at home. Two How could the child hold back? Of course he wanted to eat more.

"No, there's no one cooking here.

Even if you just cook some gruel, the rice smell is probably not small, and people nearby can smell it. There are three or four strong working people in the family, and they only eat two meals a day.

Our family can never eat three meals a day. "

After firmly rejecting the proposal, Mrs. Huang couldn't bear the two children to be so hungry, so she immediately took out two eggs and said with a chuckle:

"But boiled eggs will be fine. Boiled eggs have no taste. Not only are they nutritious, they are enough to fill your stomach. Don't worry, I'll cook them now."

"Grandma can just cook one for Xiaoxiao to eat."

"Grandma, why don't we just stop eating? Two eggs can be exchanged for a pound of salt. It's a waste for us to eat."

"Okay, okay, you can be so humble with a few eggs. When the business gets bigger, you can eat the eggs as food. Grandma Huang, I think you should cook a few more, two for each person, and you can Get two to eat.

After all, it’s up to you to do business in the ancient world. If your body collapses, the business will not be able to continue. After all, we can’t let Xiaoxiao and Ping An exchange rice and eggs with others, so you You have to make up for it, remember, the good days are still to come! "

Although Qu Jie persuaded her, Mrs. Huang obviously did not listen to her suggestion. In the end, she only cooked four hard-boiled eggs. Huang Xiaoxiao ate one and took two and a half to take away. Huang Ping'an ate one and Huang The old lady was forced by the two children to eat the remaining two and a half.

Obviously, Huang Xiaoxiao and Huang Pingan each gave half an egg to Mrs. Huang, and Huang Pingan gave an extra half to Huang Xiaoxiao. What if they could not find a wife?

After eating the eggs, I thought about it for a while.

Then they rinsed their mouths and went to sleep.

Then when I woke up the next morning, it was still pretty much the same as before. The only difference was that when I cooked the porridge in the morning, I put half a bowl of more rice and did not put the sweet potato cubes. I cooked a bowl of very thick white porridge and only had pickles.

The three people who ate were very satisfied.

I was more energetic than usual at work in the morning.

……

In the evening, when Mrs. Huang returned home, she dug out all the deposit coupons at home, divided ten kilograms of rice out of the fifty kilograms, put them into a small cloth bag, put them together with the deposit coupons, and sewed them in. In my own clothes, prepare to take them to the county town tomorrow to sell or spend money.

Then wash up and go to bed.

But this time before going to bed, Mrs. Huang drank a few glasses of water to ensure that she would wake up in time to urinate before dawn tomorrow, so that she could be in time to open the black market in the county seat and return to work in time.

Since there is no alarm clock at home, she can only rely on this stupid method to use her own physiological functions to make an alarm clock.

Then of course it’s time to go to bed.

After sleeping until about three o'clock in the morning the next day, Mrs. Huang was woken up smoothly. After getting up and going to the toilet, she quickly packed her things and rushed to the county seat.

And I was quite familiar with it, so I exchanged ten kilograms of rice for seven silver dollars in the black market. The current price of rice on the black market is about one yuan per kilogram. No food stamps are needed. The price of silver dollar exchange in the bank is one silver dollar for one yuan.

Calculating it this way, it seems that Mrs. Huang is at a greater loss, but the exchange price of silver dollars among the private sector has always been higher than the exchange price at banks. In addition, compared to banknotes, Mrs. Huang really wants silver dollars now, so No one loses in this transaction.

It can only be said that each takes what he needs.

A silver dollar is about seven cents and two cents. If you round it up to seven cents, it will be seven cents and 49. The total is a little more than five taels of silver. Moreover, the silver content of the silver dollar is slightly higher than that of ordinary silver in ancient times. Therefore, these seven coins total More than five taels of silver dollars were quite valuable in the ancient world, and they should be able to buy a lot of good things.

But Mrs. Huang doesn’t know the specific one.

Anyway, she changed it after confirming that the silver dollar was genuine.

After the rice was exchanged and the silver dollars were obtained, Mrs. Huang immediately left the black market and went to the supply and marketing cooperative, which was not yet open, to wait for it to open. After it opened, she rushed in and spent most of the money and tickets in her hand.

Replace it with something you need at home.

And bought a trousseau mirror and a box of glass beads.

Then she took these things and hurried back. Although it would be okay to be late, she didn't want others to know that she came to the county town to buy things before dawn in the early morning, so naturally she had to rush back quickly.
