Being able to sell it here is already a good choice, as different parts of pork have different prices.
There's a piece of 2.2 yuan, which is the fattest part, and it can render a lot of lard. There are also pieces for 8 mao (0.8 yuan) and 6 mao (0.6 yuan).
Zhou Mingli and his men hunt wild boar, buying them all for one yuan per kilogram. Even if Xiao Qu went out to hunt more, he could still earn a lot.
Zhou Mingli pushed his bicycle and carried a fish basket towards the stone quarry, while Zhou Gou and Jiang Ci waited outside.
