Chapter 166 A Transaction Between Us
Yu Duoduo untied the knot of the bag, opened a small hole and took a look. It was a gold brick with a very good and pure color.
Then, Yu Duoduo took out a small electronic scale from his bag and placed the gold brick on it. It was 2005 grams, no more, no less!
As his thoughts flowed, the gold brick had entered the space and disappeared in an instant. The thing in the black bag was replaced by a piece of compacted mud of the same shape and size as the gold brick.
"How is it, is the weight enough?"
Seeing that the space had swallowed the gold bricks, Yu Duoduo put away the electronic scale with confidence and tied the bag again. "Of course, doing business with Brother Wang is refreshing!"
Of course Yu Duoduo could figure out that the extra 5 grams were a favor that Brother Wang was selling to Moutai. It was normal to exchange gifts in business.
She stood up and asked Xie Yun to open the pocket of his backpack and put the mud into the bag in front of everyone.
Then he watched the two people behind Brother Wang order the meat sauce they brought.
“…98, 99, 100, Brother Wang, no problem!”
Once the money and goods are settled, the deal is done!
"Brother Wang, if you have business like this in the future, you can come to me. It's not limited to meat sauce!" Yu Duoduo approached Brother Wang and said with a smile.
Brother Wang squinted his eyes and looked at the woman in front of him.
Look at what she is wearing - a full set of expensive polar cold-proof clothing. The skin under the mask is so smooth and white that it glows. She doesn't look like she has been beaten or tortured by natural disasters at all. It doesn't seem like she is bragging.
Brother Wang chuckled and said, "So you have a lot of resources?"
Yu Duoduo waved his hands and said mysteriously: "Oh~ Brother Wang, you are joking. I don't have any resources. It's the people behind me who can get the resources. The two of us are just running errands!"
Brother Wang understood that what the girl meant was that there was someone behind her, and judging from the tone of her voice, it was very likely that the person was an official.
"Then~can the person behind you get food?" Brother Wang asked bluntly.
Yu Duoduo stared into his eyes, "Now even the government is not rich, food~ is indeed a bit difficult, but it is not completely impossible, it mainly depends on whether Brother Wang can afford the price!"
"Still want gold?" Brother Wang asked.
Yu Duoduo blinked and nodded.
"What's the price?"
Yu Duoduo thought for a moment and said, "Fresh rice is 30 grams per pound. Can Brother Wang accept that?"
Brother Wang narrowed his eyes. 30 grams of gold for a pound of rice, this sounds like robbing money, but now there is no way to get a large amount of food.
Almost all the food is in the hands of the government and the rich people on the top of the mountain. If the people at the top leak a little bit down, then there is a little bit. When they stop giving, it is like strangling the throats of the people below.
It has been nearly half a year since the natural disaster began. The official relief food in Hui City has shrunk visibly, from 3 jin of uncooked rice (about 1,500 grams) per person per week at the beginning to 6 liang of cooked rice (about 840 grams of uncooked rice) per person per day now.
It is unknown how long the natural disaster will last. There is no telling when even the official food supply will stop being distributed. He has to prepare in advance.
If he just saves food one pound at a time like he is doing now, not only is it too slow, but how much food will the people have in their hands?
"Is there any room for negotiation on the price?" asked Brother Wang.
"Brother Wang, the price of this food is set by my boss, and I have no right to change it. But if Brother Wang wants more food, I can privately give Brother Wang two kilograms of frozen pork to satisfy his craving!"
When Wang Ge heard Yu Duoduo say this, he knew there was no room for bargaining, so he said:
"Well, Xiaoyu, let's first decide on the food exchange, but I need to discuss the amount of food with my brothers before I can give you a reply.
We'll discuss it later, and I'll come to your stall to meet you in person, is that okay?"
"Of course!" Yu Duoduo stretched out his leather-gloved hand, "I wish us a pleasant cooperation!"
Afterwards, Yu Duoduo and Xie Yun left Brother Wang's stall and walked towards their own stall.
As expected, when Xie Yun arrived at the stall and was about to take the waterproof pad out of his bag, he found that his backpack was broken!
I don’t know when, but someone cut it horizontally and the black plastic bag inside was long gone.
It was truly an ingenious move, and neither of them noticed anything unusual.
But Yu Duoduo deliberately put the black plastic bag into Xie Yun's empty backpack. How could no one be jealous of such an open transaction?
She put it there on purpose for people to steal it, so that when the thief found out it was just a bag of dirt, he would be so angry that he would die!
No one wanted the waterproof mat, so Xie Yun spread it out on the ground. Yu Duoduo took out the bag of meat sauce from his bag and placed it on the mat. Before they even opened the shop, three or five people gathered around.
"Oh, you're finally here. I've brought all this gold with me. I've been waiting for you for two days. Come on, give me two pieces first!"
An obese middle-aged woman squeezed to the front, took out two commemorative gold coins, and threw them on the mat in front of Yu Duoduo with two clatters.
He reached into the bag and took the meat sauce cubes himself.
Suddenly, a sharp Tang Dynasty short knife was placed across the mouth of the bag. The woman was so frightened that she retracted her hand and cursed.
Yu Duoduo slowly picked up the dagger in his hand, blew away the non-existent dust on the blade, and then looked at the middle-aged woman.
"Auntie, this is a barter business, it's a matter of mutual consent. I haven't even opened yet, why are you in such a hurry?"
The middle-aged woman blushed at Yu Duoduo's words, "Then, then you should hurry up!"
Yu Duoduo placed the cardboard with the words "Mushroom and Fresh Meat Sauce, 20 grams of gold per pack" in the most conspicuous position in front, and then took out the electronic scale and placed it in front of himself.
Then he looked at the middle-aged woman and picked up the two gold coins from his feet.
Yu Duoduo frowned slightly. She put the gold coins on the electronic scale to weigh them. The total was exactly 40 grams.
"It's all weighed. Now you can give me the meat sauce!" The middle-aged woman stretched out her hand, seeming very anxious.
"This is just the first step. Why are you in such a hurry?" Yu Duoduo glanced at her and took out a gas welding gun from his bag. "Are you sure you want to use these two gold coins as an exchange? We need to do a fire appraisal!"
"Of course!"
"Okay, please bear witness to my business, but I have to state in advance that this stall only accepts real gold. If fake gold is burned, we will not help restore it!"
Yu Duoduo stared into the middle-aged woman's eyes and said with a smile.
"How could this be fake? This is a commemorative gold coin my husband bought for a lot of money. If it wasn't for a piece of meat, I would never exchange it!" The middle-aged woman looked disdainful.
"OK."
