Chapter 19 Business Talk



Su Le didn't leave the space yesterday. He just slept, did SAP, and took a hot spring bath in it.

I'm planning a trip to the black market today, and I'll have to get up early and take a bullock cart. I'd better take advantage of this opportunity to get a bicycle. It'll be very convenient later.

He took his big backpack and walked to the village entrance, thinking that he would come back in the afternoon to collect grass for the pigs.

Yao Cuifang was also on the oxcart, "Su Zhiqing, come over here and do it."

Su Le walked over and sat next to her. Yao Cuifang took out a white flour bun and said, "Su Zhiqing, thank you for helping me take care of my grandchildren in the mountains yesterday."

Su Le was too embarrassed to take the steamed bun, "It's the kids who took care of me." He pushed it back to her, saying that white flour steamed buns were made of fine grains.

Yao Cuifang forced it into her mouth and said, "Su Zhiqing, take it quickly and eat it while it's hot."

"Yao Cuifang, why are you so generous today?" Li Lai Di asked.

"Yes! Yao Cuifang, is the food so good for you? You are really willing to spend it." Wu Xiang continued.

Yao Cuifang glared at them and asked, "Who cares?"

Li Lai Di pursed her lips, thinking of her daughter who hadn't married yet. "Sister Yao, how long will your youngest be home this time?"

Yao Cuifang looked at her suspiciously, "Why are you asking this?"

Li Lai Di said, "The youngest in your family is not young anymore. Isn't it time for him to get married? He has to leave behind an heir."

Yao Cuifang pouted, "Bah! If you dare to curse my youngest, I'll rip your mouth apart!"

Li Lai Di was a little scared of her and said with a smile, "Look at what you said, Sister Yao. I said something wrong. My Xiaomei..."

Yao Cuifang interrupted directly, "Shut up! You should keep your lazy daughter for yourself! Don't bother my youngest child. He has a sweetheart!" She glanced at Su Le beside her.

Su Le frowned.

Wu Xiang asked, "Who is it? Which girl?"

Li Lai Di sneered, "Yao Cuifang, what are you talking about? How can my daughter be lazy and eat too much? She only earns 10 work points a month! What kind of girl is there? What kind of girl would want to be a widow? My daughter is willing to marry into your family, so you should be grateful!"

Yao Cuifang grabbed her hair and started beating her. "You old bitch, you're a widow! My youngest son's sweetheart is a hundred times prettier than your stupid daughter! She's much smarter! Stop thinking about my youngest son. If you dare to slander my youngest son again, I'll kill you!"

Su Le listened to it in his heart. Could it be Xia Wan? How blind!

Yao Cuifang noticed Su Le's expression from time to time, which was as calm as water. Could it be that he didn't like the youngest one?

Uncle Niu shouted, "That's enough! Stop making trouble! Sit down quickly!"

Yao Cuifang returned to Su Le's side.

The ox cart bumped along to the county. Su Le whispered to Uncle Niu, "Uncle Niu, I'll go back by myself in a while. Don't wait for me."

Uncle Niu nodded.

Su Le walked to an empty alley, changed her clothes, and put on some makeup.

After the two of them turned around and around, Su Le saw the two big men again, "Oh, the old lady is here again."

"Yes, we have extra food at home." Su Le gave fifty cents to the two big men, and they let her in.

Su Le looked around and saw a skinny man at the edge who was staring at the black market.

Su Le put half of the rice into the backpack, took a watch in his hand, and walked towards the man.

"What are you doing? Find a place to sell the goods yourself!" the man said coldly!

Su Le showed him his watch and the rice in the basket. "I want to discuss business with your boss!"

The skinny monkey reached into the rice, felt a handful, and looked at it carefully. "Wait here! I'll go ask!"

The skinny monkey took a handful of rice and went in to find the leader of the black market, "Brother Hu! There is an old lady outside who wants to talk business with us. This is her rice. She also has a watch in her hand." The skinny monkey handed the rice in his hand to Brother Hu.

Brother Hu took it in his hand and looked at it carefully, "Please come in. This is good stuff!"

The skinny monkey quickly took the two of them into the yard.

"Hello, my name is Xu Hu. I wonder how the old lady wants to talk about business?" Xu Hu sat on the high seat and looked at Su Le.

Su Le put the watch on the table and asked, "What goods do you need?"

Xu Hu walked to the seat opposite Su Le and glanced at his watch. "I wonder what kind of goods Auntie has?"

Su Le smiled and said, "As long as you need it, I can get it. Just tell me. I have someone behind me. Otherwise, I wouldn't dare to come up and talk business with you."

Xu Hu understood this. For an old lady to come alone, she must have connections. Or perhaps she was just delivering a message. "Ten bicycles, 20 watches, 10 sewing machines, 30 radios, 5,000 kilograms of rice, 5,000 kilograms of flour. When can you deliver them?"

Su Le smiled professionally and asked, "How much is the price?"

Xu Hu pondered for a moment. "The prices on the black market are naturally higher without tickets. A bicycle is 120 yuan, a watch is 110 yuan, a sewing machine is 100 yuan, a radio is 50 yuan, and white flour is 0.2 yuan per pound, and rice is 0.3 yuan per pound."

Su Le pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, we'll do the transaction in that dilapidated temple in the county town. We'll exchange the money and the goods."

Xu Hu nodded, and Su Le was about to leave. Su Le turned around and said, "Don't even think about having someone follow me. I can give you such a large shipment, so the person behind it must be quite powerful!"

Xu Hu was thinking the same thing, but now he had to give it up. "We do business with integrity."

Su Le went out to stock up with satisfaction. He twisted and turned in the alley, clearing his mind and making sure no one was following him, which made him feel relieved.

We can cooperate for a long time in the future.
