Chapter 76: Small Business, Don't Say Anything
This lady's family is well off, so they don't have to eat meat every day, but two meals a week is no problem. Last month, my daughter-in-law got pregnant. She felt sick at the smell of anything and couldn't eat. She was getting thinner and thinner, and her spirits were not good. The whole family was worried about this, fearing that they would lose the baby.
A few days ago, my daughter-in-law suddenly said that she wanted to eat red dates millet porridge, which made the whole family very happy. Wanting to eat is a good thing, so we have to prepare everything. But when we were about to prepare to cook, we remembered that there were no red dates in this season.
It would take more than two months for the jujubes to be available in the market. Where could they get them? Even my daughter-in-law couldn't eat the millet porridge she cooked, and the family was worried again.
The old lady then thought of trying her luck at the black market, and unexpectedly she actually found it. The jujubes were really good, and the price was reasonable, but she habitually wanted to bargain.
The old lady walked around and didn't see any shop selling dates, so she came back.
Song Shuangshuang looked impatient and said, "Auntie, we won't sell it. The purchase price is not enough."
"How about 6 cents? I'll buy more and you can give me a discount." The old lady thought that the cheaper the better and continued to bargain. Seeing that Song Shuangshuang looked unhappy, she quickly said, "5 cents, 7 cents a pound, okay? I want more."
Song Shuangshuang turned her head and said, "The lowest price is 8 cents, buy it if you want or not!" After that, she ignored the old lady.
The old lady wanted to say something, but Song Shuangshuang didn't even look at her. She could only look at Song Youlin and said, "Young man, I want more. Can you give me a discount?"
Song Youlin pretended to be embarrassed and looked at the old lady. "Auntie, to be honest, my sister and I bought these dates for 6 cents, and there are only 5 kilograms in total. We won't make any money even if we sell them to you at 7 cents. It costs money to come here, so you should let us make some money. We also need to eat."
These words made the old lady feel very embarrassed.
"Well, then, I'll take all these dates for 8 cents. Don't give me the rotten ones."
The aunt thought that since she had finally found them, she should buy them all back and let her daughter-in-law eat her fill.
"Don't worry, Auntie. There must be nothing bad. I won't weigh it and will just give you 5 jin. If you are worried, you can ask someone to weigh it for you. It will be guaranteed to be just the right amount." Song Youlin helped the old lady put the dates into her own basket.
When packing the dates, she didn't notice that a piece of preserved fruit that hadn't been packed yet had fallen apart, and two pieces were put into the aunt's basket. Song Youlin couldn't take it out, so he said it was a gift to the aunt.
The old lady was quite happy to hear that. It was not easy to get the preserved fruit, so she took one out of the basket, blew on it and ate it directly. It was sour and sweet and quite delicious. The old lady thought her daughter-in-law would like it, so she asked the price.
Song Shuangshuang took out a package of "2 yuan."
The lady saw that the bag was not big, probably only half a pound at most, and subconsciously wanted to bargain.
Before he could even open his mouth, Song Shuangshuang put it away, saying sternly, "It's just a small business, so don't say anything."
aunt"……"
I thought, how can this girl be so stingy! Before she could say anything, I blocked her back. "...Give me a pack." I handed her another two dollars.
Song Shuangshuang took the money, smiled and put the preserved fruits into the old lady's basket, and did not forget to cover the basket with cloth. Before leaving, she smiled and said, "Come back if it's delicious!"
This made the old lady lose all her temper.
[Ding~ Mission completed, rewarding the host with 20 points, current points are 55 points. ]
After completing the mission and getting the points, the brother and sister packed up and prepared to leave. They couldn't let Uncle Wu wait for them like last time.
When leaving the black market, Song Shuangshuang did not forget to ask Song Youlin to give two pieces of dried fruit to the guard. He was told to come often in the future to build a good relationship first.
The man looked at the preserved fruits in his hand and thought that the two people were quite interesting. It was rare to see someone give him something after paying money. He was impressed by the Song Shuangshuang siblings.
Fearing that they didn't have enough time, the brother and sister didn't even go to the state-owned restaurant, but went straight back to Old Wu's place. When they got there, they saw that there were already several aunts sitting in the car. When the brother and sister got in the car, they held the things that had just been put in their arms, so that if there were more people coming to take the car, Uncle Wu could take one more person back.
When the aunts on the bus came back, they saw a bunch of things on the bus, all of which were daily necessities, so they guessed that Song Shuangshuang and her brother had bought them. But when they really saw the two of them taking the things away, they couldn't help but be shocked. How much money did it cost? Not to mention the money, they also needed a lot of tickets.
Some aunts were interested. One of the bravest aunts moved over from her seat and patted Song Shuangshuang on the shoulder. "Song Zhiqing, do you have any extra cloth coupons?"
After hearing this, the other aunts also turned their eyes to Song Shuangshuang, as if they would come and ask if Song Shuangshuang said anything.
Song Shuangshuang felt a chill on her back and said honestly, "Aunt, I don't have any cloth coupons. I'm sorry."
The aunt was a little disappointed, but she also knew that cloth coupons were limited in quantity and difficult to get. "It's okay, it's nothing to be embarrassed about. I just want to ask if you have any extra. I want to exchange two with you." This made her feel embarrassed.
After hearing this, the other aunts didn't come over to ask. Even if these two children had tickets, they had probably used them up. Look at the things they bought, each of them requires a ticket.
Song Shuangshuang said that if she had extra tickets in the future, she could exchange them with her aunts.
She still has to deal with these aunts in the village. As long as the supermarket is unlocked, she will have no shortage of things. The tickets are date-limited, so she can exchange them with the aunts.
After hearing what Song Shuangshuang said, the aunts were overjoyed. It was difficult for rural people to get tickets. If they wanted to buy anything in the city, they had to find someone to exchange it, or go to the black market. If Song Zhiqing could exchange tickets for them, it would be much more convenient for them. No matter how much or how little, it was always the same.
The aunties in the car said a lot of nice things to her, and even though Song Shuangshuang felt that she was thick-skinned, she couldn't resist.
I wish Uncle Wu would drive his donkey cart back to the village immediately so that I can quickly return to the educated youth site.
Song Shuangshuang came back from the city early today, and asked Song Youlin to help put her things in the girls' dormitory.
After that day, He Feiyang found an opportunity to tell the siblings that Cao Qi, Feng Aiguo and Ji Hongcai also wanted to sneak out at noon that day.
When Song Youlin thought about not seeing these three people that day, he knew that He Feiyang had stopped them.
Understanding his good intentions, Song Youlin no longer put valuables in the dormitory. He put everything that could be put in the space there, and left all other things that could not be seen with Song Shuangshuang.
Although Bai Lingling is still with the female educated youth, it is safer than Cao Qi in the male dormitory. Who knows if Cao Qi will do something bad while they are away? Oh, yes, there are also Feng Aiguo and Ji Hongcai, two stupid people.
After putting the things away, while the educated youth had not returned yet, the brother and sister went into the Space Supermarket and actually dismantled a shelf and took it out. They threw it on the ground with the white paint side facing down, rubbed it back and forth with their feet, and picked it up only after the white paint was basically rubbed off. They then found a stone to rub off the remaining part before they were done.
Song Shuangshuang looked at her masterpiece with satisfaction, brushed the dirt off her hands, and put the iron sheet away.
