Chapter 210: Selling Meat
"Grandma, I will stay here tonight. I will have to go to the post office to make a phone call tomorrow. I don't have to cook for both of us at night. We just had lunch before two o'clock, so we won't eat dinner." Lu Nanyi took Lu Zihao out with him after the instructions.
As the end of the year approaches, he wants to go to the black market to look for something good for his grandparents.
Chu Molin followed Qiao Zhiyan to the city. The railway station was still very lively. Maybe because the New Year is approaching and many people have to go home, so the railway station is not as deserted as usual.
However, there are basically no one who used to sell things near the train station now. Everyone carries big bags and small bags and is in a hurry.
Qiao Zhiyan's mood became much calmer as he walked over. Chu Molin felt relieved when he saw that he was like this. After he got on the train, he went to the post office and called the eldest brother of the Qiao family. He talked about the arrival time of the train. He stayed in the guesthouse near the post office for the whole night that night.
When the genius was so bright that some small sounds came from the street, he woke up and looked around and found that although some small sounds were made, there were not many people on the street.
Chu Molin originally wanted to take a look and see if there was anything to buy? Or exchange the meat in its backpack for something else. But after leaving the post office, he found that the entire street was deserted, and the shops were only state-owned hotels and supply and marketing cooperatives.
There was no choice but Chu Molin had to find the black market he had been to before. Chu Molin did not go in directly, but observed it for a long time and found that there were not many things but many people.
Chu Molin changed himself to a dog-skin hat, and then brought a pair of big black glasses. He changed the brand new jacket he had worn on his body into a large cotton jacket that was worn in a cloth bag. He walked into the black market and walked around and found that there was nothing. Apart from some, rice, white flour and some pork, there was nothing else.
In his opinion, it was really nothing, but these were the things that the people needed most during the New Year. During the short time he was shopping, the things on the small stalls had basically been sold out.
Because of the hasty leave, Chu Molin only brought a basket and a cloth that was not covered. The bag contained a worn cotton jacket. The basket was indeed the one they wanted to bring back to Kyoto and had not yet brought the bacon chicken and rabbit.
They usually eat these things, so they don’t care about storing them. They want to bring them out when they eat them. If they can be sold, they can earn more. Just now, he also wanted to change some rice and flour, but seeing that the quality of the rice and flour is not very good, forget it.
Chu Molin didn't find a place to set up a stall, so he placed his back basket on the ground, took off the cloth on the back basket, and sat next to the back basket with the cloth.
As soon as he sat down, someone had already seen the things in his backpack. A woman with short hair and short hair cut in her ears, her eyes lit up again when she saw the braised chicken and rabbit in his backpack.
"Comrade, I want all the many things you have in it, so I'll pretend it's all for me."
When Chu Molin heard the man's words, he raised his eyebrows. He was rich and generous, and he just filled the whole thing without asking about the price.
Seeing that the man was dressed like he couldn't afford to pay, Chu Molin didn't say anything, and directly pulled out a cloth bag from the backpack and put the four pheasants and two hares in the backpack into the cloth bag.
"A braised chicken is three or five yuan, a hare is four yuan, and a grain coupon or meat coupon is two pounds, and everything else is fine." Chu Molin didn't know how many tickets he should ask for, so he just asked for two pounds. After all, no one can get many tickets now.
The woman didn't bargain, so she directly pulled out a stack of money and tickets from her pocket, and collected 22 yuan, two kilograms of meat tickets, and two kilograms of candy tickets. She handed it to Chu Molin, and reached out to take the cloth bag in his hand. It was a little heavy, and almost threw her away.
It was Chu Molin who ordered a song and helped her to lift it up, which made her feel aggrieved. This kind of person seemed to have never done a job, and he weighed less than 20 kilograms and could almost fall. No one else.
"Do you need to deliver goods for you?" Chu Molin looked at her chicken claw-like hands and felt that holding a lot of things was a little lingering.
"Then help me get it outside, I put my bicycle there, thank you comrade." As soon as the woman heard that he was going to help deliver it, she immediately led the way with a smile.
Chu Molin held the bag of meat in his left hand and his backpack in his right hand, and walked out with big strides.
The woman was able to keep up with him as she trotted. The two of them quickly left the black market. Chu Molin helped her tie things to the back seat of the bicycle and left, carrying a basket, swaying with her backpack. She didn't know what to buy. The car back to the county from the city had already set off, and it took two hours to arrive for passing trains.
This place is only a dozen minutes away from the train station, so he thought about taking a walk for the rest of the time to see if he could buy some things that were not in the county.
As a result, I walked around for a long time and didn't buy anything. From time to time, I saw those people wearing regular sleeves wandering on the road. Chu Molin was a little scared when he saw their perverted behavior. He thought about it and just ran to the train station to buy tickets and waited at the station.
Chu Molin waited in the train station for a while, and suddenly heard his stomach roaring, and then he remembered that he had not had breakfast after getting up in the morning. He looked at his watch and there was still some time before the train arrived.
Chu Molin put the train ticket into his pocket and walked out. The basket on his back was empty. He had just walked around and didn't buy anything. He walked out of the waiting room of the train station. There was a special place to sell cakes on both sides. These foods that were easier to take away were a guesthouse. The guesthouse did not sell cars, so he could only buy them in this place where the cakes were sold.
Chu Molin had never bought anything in this place, so he only bought one copy for each one and tried it. He found that the osmanthus cake and chestnut cake on his side were both good. The big meat buns had too thick skin and not much meat, so he didn't want it.
The scallion oil pancake is not as delicious as Lu Nanyi’s own, so I don’t want it.
After he ate all the pastries and pancakes he bought, it was full, but he poured them back and bought a few osmanthus cakes and chestnut cakes. He thought these two were still edible, and it was OK to buy them as gifts.
As soon as I walked out of the pastry shop, a fellow villager walked past, carrying a basket of flowers on his back. He didn't know anything. After hitting him, the cloth on the basket was lifted a little.
Chu Molin saw the red dates inside the basket with sharp eyes, and carefully followed the man for a short period of time. The man turned around and was startled to see him.
