Chapter 857 I'm Not Afraid of You
"One catty and eight ounces can't be any less."
The old man gritted his teeth, as if he had made a very difficult decision.
Two taels less per catty is an unexpected surprise.
"Okay, but the weight must be sufficient, otherwise I won't sell it."
"Don't worry, I will definitely give you enough."
The old man's face was wrinkled with smile. He quickly packed all the shrimps on the stall and weighed them for Gu Luan.
"It's 48 jin in total. You give me 85.4 jin of food. I'll give you 4 liang, so you give me 85 jin of food."
"Thank you very much. The food is at home. Can you be responsible for delivering it?"
Gu Luan remembered that he had nothing in his hands and it was impossible for him to produce so much food for the old man immediately.
"We can deliver. Where do you live?"
The old man didn't think Gu Luan was a liar. After all, the two men didn't look alike at first glance.
Gu Luan told the old man where she lived and asked him to deliver the goods to her in half an hour.
After another round of walking, Gu Luan saw a lot of sea salt on a stall, all packed in plastic bags.
It should be homemade sea salt, each bag weighs about one pound.
"Guest, would you like to buy some sea salt? The impurities have been filtered out and you can eat it with confidence."
The stall owner was a young man, who immediately introduced himself when he saw Gu Luan looking at him.
"How much?"
Gu Luan walked over, picked up a bag of sea salt and checked it to make sure it was safe and edible.
She had a lot of salt in her space, including what she bought and what was sold in containers, plus what she bought for free, enough for tens of thousands of people to eat for a lifetime.
It does look like a lot, but Gu Luan feels that she could stockpile some more because she is afraid that the sea water will be polluted in the future and she will never have the chance to stockpile again.
In case the country needs it in the future, or if she suddenly has the brains to build a base, there will be extra salt.
She has enough space to produce food, but the edible salt is used up bag by bag.
I don’t know when the ocean in space will appear?
Maybe it will never show up in your lifetime!
No matter what, stock up while you can!
"One bag of salt and one pound of grain, coarse grain is also fine."
Table salt may be expensive in other places, but here is the seaside, and the things we have the most are seafood and table salt.
That's why dried goods and sea salt are so cheap.
"How many pounds do you have here?"
"Five hundred kilograms in total."
The young man told Gu Luan that he was from a private base and that the edible salt was taken from the base to be sold.
"Delivery?"
"deliver!"
After confirming that Gu Luan and Jiang Xian wanted to buy it, the young man smiled widely.
Like Li Mu, he could get a lot of benefits by selling these.
"Please help me deliver it here."
Gu Luan told the young man the address, and after he wrote it down, he agreed to deliver the goods in half an hour.
Gu Luan and Jiang Xian didn't shop any further and left the trading market.
The two drove back and forth again.
When half an hour was up, the old woman came first to deliver the dried shrimps, followed by a large family.
With so much food, the old man didn't dare to come alone, for fear that it would be robbed if he went back halfway.
Jiang Xian took out 85 kilograms of rice from the trunk. The old man’s son happily took it and handed the dried shrimp to Gu Luan.
Gu Luan took it and checked it, making sure it was not adulterated, and let them leave.
Ten minutes later, the young man drove here.
He took the sea salt out of the car and asked Gu Luan and Jiang Xian to check it.
After checking that everything was correct, Gu Luan and Jiang Xian carried out five large bags of potatoes and sweet potatoes.
The potatoes and sweet potatoes traded were all bought by Gu Luan before the end of the world, and there are still a lot of them now.
After the young man left, Gu Luan and Jiang Xian drove out.
When there was no one around, Gu Luan put the dried shrimp and sea salt into the space.
Sitting in the passenger seat, Gu Luan took out some dried shrimps to taste.
"It tastes really good, you should have some."
Gu Luan took out the largest shrimp and stuffed it into Jiang Xian's mouth, and asked him how it tasted.
"tasty."
Jiang Xian nodded, "It might taste better if it was a little spicy."
“You have a very unique taste.”
Gu Luan smiled and glared at Jiang Xian. She just liked the taste of dried shrimp, so why would she add chili peppers?
"If you like, how about I make some spicy dried shrimp for you when we get home?"
"good!"
"You wish. This is enough to last for a long time. I'll make it for you."
Although Gu Luan said so, he really tried to make spicy dried shrimps when he returned.
Fortunately, she loves seafood and has seen videos of this type, otherwise she would not be able to make it at all.
Take out ten pounds of large shrimps and try how to prepare them first. If it goes well, make more.
First pick out the shrimp thread, then cut off the shrimp claws.
Prepare the onion, ginger, cooking wine, salt and dried chili peppers.
When the shrimps are put into the pot, add the seasonings together.
Take out the winnowing basket woven by the old village chief and others from the space, scoop out the shrimps from the pot, and then spread the shrimps evenly on the winnowing basket.
With the weather outside being so hot, drying it for a day should be enough.
Not long after Gu Luan entered, he heard slight noises outside.
She went out and took a look.
There was actually a woman in her thirties who was trying to steal the dried shrimps she was drying.
Jiang Xian stood behind Gu Luan and looked coldly at the woman who stole things.
"What are you doing?"
A cold voice came out of Jiang Xian's mouth, and the woman who was stealing was so scared that she quickly retracted her hand.
She looked up in horror, "You...you guys..."
When did these two come out?
She was so careful, how could she be discovered?
Since she was discovered, the woman simply grabbed a handful of dried shrimps and ran to the other side.
Jiang Xian took a step forward and chased after her. In less than a minute, he grabbed the fleeing woman by the collar.
"Let me go, this is indecent, this grown man is bullying a woman."
The woman was unreasonable and started to blame others.
Gu Luan walked forward and asked Jiang Xian to let the woman go.
Jiang Xian threw the woman away and went back to his room in disgust to wash his hands.
Seeing Jiang Xian let go of her obediently, the woman thought they were scared, "Are you scared? Why don't you let me go quickly?"
"Afraid? I'm not afraid of you!"
Seeing his hard work being destroyed by this woman, Gu Luan was so angry that he walked up to her and slapped her.
The woman was hit on the face and looked at Gu Luan in disbelief, "You hit me?"
"Not only will you be beaten, but you will also have to compensate me."
Gu Luan was not polite and slapped the woman again.
The woman's face was hit symmetrically. Two slaps made her drop the shrimp in her hand and pounce on Gu Luan.
"Ah, you bitch, you dare to hit me."
The woman roared and bared her teeth and claws as if she wanted to bite someone.
Gu Luan hadn't seen such a weird and disgusting woman for a long time.
Even if there are one or two such people, they are no match for this woman.
"court death!"
Jiang Xian, who had just come out, turned cold and kicked the woman who was about to attack Gu Luan.
There is no rule against beating women here. Anyone who dares to bully Gu Luan deserves to die.
The woman was kicked to the ground and was in so much pain that she couldn't get up.
"It's a beating. This man not only molested me, but also beat me."
People gathered around and the woman just started crying and making a fuss.
