Chapter 107 One Person, One Penny: The Fate of Min Hongping and Hao Hongyan (2/2)



If it weren't for Gu Yunyang's kind heart, he wouldn't have lent everyone 20 before.

Where would they get any money?

This person's character is really bad; I should avoid them in the future.

Min Hongping was unaware that, due to his actions, all the people who had gone to the countryside with him were now planning to distance themselves from him.

At this moment, after much effort, he and Hao Hongyan encountered a fellow villager on the way.

After some initial contact, they were helped to move their luggage to the villager's home.

Then I spent 50 cents to have a meal.

Looking at the bowl of rice in front of him, which was barely visible, Min Hongping frowned and said, "This is it? Five cents?"

The fellow villager grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth, and Hao Hongyan immediately showed a look of disgust.

But the villager nodded without any hesitation and said, "Yes, that's how we usually eat at home. Isn't this rice? There's rice in it, isn't there?"

This scene caused Min Hongping to erupt from her previous anger over losing three cents.

Why should I?!

he……

Then, amidst the fellow villager's clenched fist gesture, Min Hongping fell silent.

Hao Hongyan gave Min Hongping a reproachful look, feeling it was all his fault. If it weren't for Min Hongping, she would have gone to eat with Han Xue and the others.

Maybe Han Xue will even treat me to a meal.

Why spend 50 cents only to get a few grains of rice cooked into rice porridge?

What's left is this incredibly ugly mustard tuber in front of me.

There was only a tiny bit of mustard tuber, and it smelled quite unpleasant.

After Gu Yunyang and his group finished their meal, Gu Yunyang personally led them to the homes of nearby villagers to find out which family owned an oxcart.

Fortunately, they had taken a bus here before, and the place where they got off was not in the center of the county, but in a relatively remote area.

They hadn't gone far when they found a place with an oxcart.

Of course, it is also public property organized by brigade.

Strictly speaking, this place isn't really in the county; it's a village near the county seat.

They weren't too far apart, but later they were connected because of building houses.

Gu Yunyang went up to bargain and finally agreed on a price of one cent per person, totaling six cents, for one trip by oxcart.

Gu Yunyang didn't care. It was just a small amount of money; he didn't want to give people the impression of being a sucker.

He himself was fine.

Although the others thought one cent was a lot, they couldn't handle carrying so much luggage themselves.

I had no choice but to spend that penny.

"It's all Yang Hongmei's fault. If it weren't for her, we wouldn't be so stingy with every penny."

They all came from big cities, clutching their rural subsidies.

Some cost over a hundred, while others cost at least several tens of yuan.

In some places, he not only gave money, but also provided things like enamel cups.

The procurement of these items depends on the situation in each region.

But it's definitely much more expensive than what the supply and marketing cooperative sells.

But these things can be obtained from the educated youth office without any coupons.

This is a joint supply, so the price will naturally be higher.

The specific principles and procedures of procurement are understood by everyone.

Yang Shengnan collected the money, giving each person one cent, and then immediately prepared to set off.

Guo Tiejun asked again, "Are we just going to ignore Min Hongping and Hao Hongyan?"

Gu Yunyang didn't answer him. He had already taken his bag upstairs and stood aside, waiting for everyone to put their luggage away and get ready to leave.

Those two, let whoever wants to manage them manage them, he's not going to care anyway.
