Zhang Shuguang, a struggling author from the 21st century, spent years staying up late writing. He finally died from overwork and became a member of the transmigration army.
However, Zhang Sh...
It was only when he arrived in the county town that Gu Qiang realized that the city was not much better than the countryside.
Whether it is the supply and marketing cooperative or the grain and oil store, the price of grain has not increased. The price of grain within the quota is 1.8 cents per catty, and the price of commercial grain outside the quota is 3.6 cents per catty. However, the shelves are empty and there is no grain for sale at all.
After he went home and explained the situation, his father took him to the black market that night. Fine grains cost two yuan per pound, and coarse grains cost one yuan and eighty yuan per pound, which was several times more expensive than the grain and oil store.
While the food was still in short supply and the father and son were still hesitating, it was sold out.
Having missed this opportunity, the father and son waited in the black market for three nights but didn't encounter anyone selling food.
Now my cousin said that one pound of mountain products can be exchanged for two pounds of fine grains, which means the price on the black market is four yuan per pound. This makes Gu Qiang a little unbelievable.
"Brother, why would I lie to you? None of our villagers went to work today. We all went to the mountains to look for mountain products.
But don’t make this public. I collected quite a bit yesterday, and the factory isn’t short of supplies anymore.”
Zhang Shuguang asked in a low voice.
The purpose of collecting mountain products from the village was to reverse the unfavorable situation at home, and telling my aunt's family was to reassure them, turning the gift into an exchange.
This matter cannot be made public. If it gets out of hand, Zhang Shuguang will not be able to explain the source of the grain.
"I understand, we all understand. Dad, don't we still have a few pounds of dried mountain products at home? Then give them to my cousin. I didn't expect mountain products to be so valuable now.
Second brother, don't go to work tomorrow. Take third sister to the mountains to look for mountain products."
There was a burning look in Gu Qiang's eyes.
I didn’t look for mountain products before because I thought it was more cost-effective to earn work points. Now that there are sales channels and the prices are so good, even a fool would know what to choose.
