Chapter 12 Black Market Trading (1/2)



Chapter 12 Black Trade

She took out another pound of eggs.

She stockpiled a lot of rice, several bags.

One bag weighs ten kilograms.

A bag of flour weighs ten kilograms, and I stockpiled ten bags.

There are also some dry goods, frozen dumplings, cured meats and the like.

However, Song Anan only planned to sell eggs, rice and noodles, and these were enough.

After putting the things in the backpack, Song Anan found a stall and sat down.

Soon a middle-aged woman came up and asked, "Sister, what do you have for sale?"

Song Anan said in a somewhat rough voice, "We have meat, eggs, rice, and noodles. It depends on what you want."

Hearing Song Anan's words, this man's eyes almost lit up.

"What? You have these good things? Big sister, how much are they for?"

Although Song Anan didn't know much about the prices in the 1970s, she saw an introduction to the prices in the original novel when she read it.

Rice noodles are generally more than one kilogram per pound, and black beans can cost twice as much.

The price of pork is about 80 yuan to 1.2 yuan per catty, and the price of black pork is also higher.

The weight of an egg is probably between 100 and 80 grams.

Although prices are low at this time, wages are also low.

The average monthly salary of a normal city worker is around 30 to 40 yuan.

When buying things online, you not only look at the money, but also the ticket.

You need grain coupons to buy grain, and you need meat coupons to buy meat.

Having money without tickets is not enough.

Everything else is easy to deal with. In this day and age, the main issue is filling your stomach.

If you can't even fill your stomach, then there's no need to worry about other problems.

Therefore, food coupons, meat coupons and the like are the most valuable.

Song Anan quoted the price, "Meat is one yuan per pound, eggs are six ounces per pound, and rice and noodles are both one ounce and a half per pound.

I don't want meat coupons, grain coupons, or egg coupons, but you have to give me some cloth coupons and industrial coupons.

For one pound of meat, you have to give me two industrial coupons, six feet of cloth coupons, or two pounds of cotton coupons. For one pound of eggs, you have to give me one industrial coupon, three feet of cloth coupons, and one pound of cotton coupons. For grain, if you have industrial coupons, you can give me industrial coupons. If you don’t have industrial coupons, you can give me cloth coupons or cotton coupons.”

After hearing Song Anan's offer, the middle-aged woman thought it was quite cheap.

This price is not more expensive than the normal supply.

As for the ticket, she had it at home, but she just didn't bring it with her when she went out.

After all, she came out to buy food, so she wouldn't think of bringing other tickets.

"Hey, big sister, I want it, but I don't have it with me. Can you wait for me? I'll get it at my house. My house is not far away, I'll be there in a while."

Song Anan nodded, "No problem, I'll keep as much as you want."

The middle-aged woman asked, "How many things do you have here? If there are more, I would like to buy more."

"Just tell me how much you want. I brought a lot of stuff today, so it's definitely enough for you to buy."

The middle-aged woman was very happy when she heard Song Anan say this.

"Then give me two pounds, no... three pounds of meat.

Leave me one pound of eggs, and ten pounds of rice and noodles each."

Song Anan nodded, "Okay!"

The middle-aged woman hurried home, fearing that she would be too late and Song Anan had sold the things to someone else.

After the middle-aged woman left, someone else came to ask questions.

When I heard that Song Anan also had meat, fine grains, and eggs at a low price, I hurried to buy them.

Before waiting for the middle-aged woman to come, Song Anan had made three business deals.

A total of 150 kilograms of meat were sold.

I sold four pounds of eggs.
