"Don't grab it, don't grab it, I'll get it for you."
Yun Huaying was afraid that they would snatch the chicken and duck eggs and break them, and to prevent someone from stealing them during the chaos, she personally selected the goods for them according to quantity.
This was her first time running a business independently. It was a bit chaotic at the beginning, but it stabilized later. The basket of chickens and ducks she brought was not large in number, and they were sold out first. By the time this group of people left, she had sold a whole basket of eggs.
Just as she put the remaining eggs into a basket, she saw the young boy coming with a basket in his hand. The basket was filled with about ten pounds of meat. It was obvious that he came to bring her some meat.
"Hey, here."
When the other person came over, Yun Huaying waved at him.
The young boy looked at her in confusion. Just when he was about to call her crazy, he heard her call him in a familiar voice: "It's me. I changed my clothes."
The voice was the same, and when I got closer, I saw those familiar eyes.
The young boy was sure it was her. Seeing her selling eggs at the stall, he raised his eyebrows and squatted in front of her with an exaggerated expression: "I just heard that Yao Dachun and the others were beaten badly. They all fell to the ground and couldn't get up. The companions outside came back and took them to the hospital. Did you do it?"
"They invited us there just to get beaten, didn't they?" Yun Huaying said seriously.
Young boy: "...It seems that even though I didn't remind you before, you guys noticed it."
Yun Huaying curled her lips slightly, "I still want to thank you, thank you for your kind reminder."
The young master twitched his lips, looked around, and found that she was the only one here, so he asked, "Where is your companion?"
"He left early because of something."
The young boy didn't ask much. Seeing that she still had quite a few chicken and duck eggs, all clean and uniform in size, he asked, "How much are they? My sister just gave birth and is having a full-moon banquet soon. We need a lot of eggs to make red eggs. How many do you have?"
"There are only about sixty left here."
"Can we still get more goods?" The young boy did not look down on any stall owner who set up a stall here. She could sell so many eggs at a time, so she must have her own supply channels.
"Yes, how much do you want?"
"Besides these, give me another seventy or eighty." The young boy handed her the meat in the basket while speaking. "It's exactly fifteen pounds. Weigh it yourself."
"No need to weigh it." Yun Huaying believed him.
Trusted by her, the young boy curled his lips and picked up the eggs from her basket into his own basket. He counted them and said, "Next time you bring me eggs, bring me two old hens."
"Okay." Yun Huaying's space had plenty of them; this matter could be done today. "Let's not come here to trade later. Let's meet outside the bicycle shed at 10:30, okay?"
"Sure." The young boy nodded in agreement and asked, "What else can you get?"
"We have some chickens and ducks. We won't sell the hens; we'll keep them for eggs. We have about thirty roosters and ducks in total. We can collect eggs here and there, so three to five hundred shouldn't be a problem. The rest is fruit. We have about ten baskets of grapes, oranges, and wax gourds. Some apples should be delivered soon."
The young boy stopped picking up the eggs. Wow, this is a big supplier, so he grabbed the opportunity without saying anything: "Can you give me all these goods?"
"Are you buying them and reselling them?" Yun Huaying asked back.
"Yes, in addition to selling meat, I also have other brothers helping me sell goods. As long as the goods are good, I will take anything."
Don't underestimate him because he has a wide range of business opportunities and connections. In addition, he has family connections to support him. No one in Yang County dares to harm him. Even gangs from other places like Yao Dachun don't dare to make any moves on him.
Yun Huaying needed a reliable long-term partner. Based on what the young boy had reminded her of earlier, his character was enough. She didn't treat him like an ordinary boy and readily agreed, "Okay, I'll go back and pack my things and send them to you in a couple of days. But there's a lot of stuff, so where should we arrange for them to be contacted?"
"Have you just come here to do business?" the young boy asked.
Yun Huaying: "...Yes, this is my first time doing business here, so I don't know much about this place yet."
The young boy wisely stopped asking questions. Everyone had their own private affairs, and as long as it didn't affect their cooperative efforts to make money, it was fine. As an experienced senior, he also gave her some advice: "Turn left at the north exit of the Hegang Black Market. There's a sign at the first intersection. Follow Huangsha Road. After two intersections, you'll see an alley paved with bluestone slabs."
"This alley is lined with dilapidated wooden houses on both sides. These houses are uninhabited and were created by the black market as a temporary place for merchants from other places to unload their inventory."
"You can temporarily unload your goods there without paying any fees, but your goods cannot occupy the space for more than three days. If you exceed three days, you will have to pay for the rental, one dollar a day."
Yun Huaying remembered it and was very grateful for his information. "Little brother, thank you."
"I often hang out in the black market. When your goods arrive, you can come find me here. If I'm not here, go find Lao Yan, the grain seller at the third stall by the south exit, and have him send someone to call me."
"Okay." Yun Huaying knew she had found the right person, so she asked him, "I can also receive some food, unhusked rice, and a lot of sweet potatoes. Do you accept them?"
"Of course I will. I'll take as much as I can."
Grain is the easiest to sell and there is no need to worry about selling it. Many of his brothers collect grain in the countryside and resell it, and they have ways to process rice.
The young man was a straightforward businessman. He roughly quoted the purchase price of various goods on the spot. Yun Huaying memorized all of it. As they parted ways, he asked for help: "Little brother, help me get a dozen sacks. I'll go back and fill them with grain. I'll deliver them to you around nine o'clock the day after tomorrow. Bring some sacks when you come to pick up the goods."
"Okay, see you at the bike shed at half past ten."
The young boy agreed, settled the bill with her, and left with a basket of chicken and duck eggs.
Yun Huaying also closed her stall. She sold two baskets of chicken and duck eggs and six chickens and ducks for a total of more than 50 yuan, which was equivalent to more than a month's salary for a regular worker in a state-owned factory. No wonder the other vendors nearby were so jealous.
Maybe the young boy had just whispered a lot of things to her, which had a deterrent effect on others, so when she left, no one followed her.
Yun Huaying left from the north exit carrying a diabolo basket. She wanted to go to the alley that the young boy mentioned first to check it out. Although others had given her advice, it would be safer to go there in person.
Perhaps it was due to her personality and her professional habits as a doctor, but she was very cautious and careful in everything she did, especially in important matters. She would personally confirm them again and again, and would always make sure that everything was foolproof before arranging the next action plan.
Just after leaving the north exit and turning to the first intersection, I was about to look at the road sign indicating to Huangsha Road, but I saw a familiar figure getting closer and closer.
