Gu Huaijue had just seen that there really wasn't much furniture, so he didn't insist. "Okay, then come find me if you need any help in the future."
After saying goodbye to Gu Huaijue, Jiang Mengxue thought about what Guan Hongqi said yesterday and also wanted to make some money.
I first went to the abandoned yard where I had put my things before, and lay on the wall to see if there was anyone hiding around.
It seems that Guan Hongqi is quite sensible and didn't let anyone watch this place.
I changed my clothes and put on makeup, and I plan to do more things today.
50 catties of pork, 40 catties of soybean oil, 100 catties of rice, 100 catties of flour,
Ten bags of 1000 grams of baby formula, which were purchased abroad at the time. There were no labels on them, so there was no need to worry about anyone noticing anything.
One pound and a handful of noodles, a total of twenty pounds, six cans of malted milk, and twenty pounds of bacon.
These quantities have exceeded the limit, and Jiang Mengxue plans not to come to the black market for a month after today.
After putting the things away, I went to the black market and knocked on the door. Sure enough, it was the Red Army who opened the door again.
Jiang Mengxue didn't say anything more and said directly: "The old place, ask your brother to bring the money over, I'm in a hurry."
After saying that, he turned around and left without waiting for Guan Hongjun to react.
Guan Hongjun was stunned for a moment before he reacted. He asked his companions to check the door and went to the other side of the yard.
After waiting for less than ten minutes, Guan Hongqi arrived with Guan Hongjun and two younger brothers.
"Let's take a look at the goods first. If there's no problem, we'll pay and receive the goods."
Guan Hongqi was not polite either. At this time, time is money. Now is the time to hurry up and sell the goods. While the price is high, you can make more money.
After looking at today's items, Guan Hongqi thought for a moment and said, "We all know the prices on the black market. The prices over the past two days have increased compared to the previous period, so naturally the prices of our items today will also increase.
So, pork is 1.5 yuan per pound, soybean oil is 1.8 yuan, rice and flour are 1 yuan, milk powder is 8 yuan a bag, noodles are 2.5 yuan a handful, malted milk is 8 yuan, and bacon is 2.5 yuan per pound."
Jiang Mengxue frowned when she heard the price. This price was much higher than yesterday. The price of rice and flour had increased by several cents overnight.
Even if grain production has decreased this year, the autumn harvest hasn't ended yet, so prices shouldn't rise so quickly.
Seeing Jiang Mengxue frown, Guan Hongqi thought she was dissatisfied with the price, and hurriedly explained: "The price increase is only temporary now. Maybe after the autumn harvest, when the grain comes in, the price will go back down.
I heard that the harvest in the south this year has dropped a lot compared with previous years. The weather in our north is also a bit abnormal this year. Many experienced farmers say that grain production will decrease this year.
So now the black market prices for grain have started to rise slightly, but it's not that extreme yet. It should be fine once the public grain is delivered."
Jiang Mengxue nodded. The autumn harvest time in the south is earlier than here, and many places have less rain this year. If the national grain production does decrease this year, then the people's lives will become difficult next year.
She just didn't expect it to happen so soon. According to the information, it was from 1959 to 1961.
But it's normal. Drought doesn't mean there is no water suddenly in one day. It's always a process.
Jiang Mengxue counted the money in her hand, five hundred and seventy-five yuan.
It would be great if I could have some extra money when the house is finished.
After packing the money, she was about to leave, but she saw Guan Hongqi and Guan Hongjun staring at her eagerly.
"Why? I didn't charge you any extra money."
Guan Hongqi was embarrassed. If he didn't have a dark face, his face would definitely be red. "I just want to ask, do you still have the watch?"
Jiang Mengxue was surprised: "Ten watches were sold out so quickly yesterday?"
"Not really, but I'm sure the watches will sell well. If there are any left, I'll buy them."
"I do have a few watches left, but I want to exchange them for a bicycle ticket. Do you have any?" I can't stand walking these days and I urgently need a bicycle.
Guan Hongqi shook his head regretfully: "Bicycles are in such short supply. People have to queue up in department stores to buy them. It takes months to get one. Even if you come across a store that's struggling and wants to sell one, it's a rare opportunity."
Jiang Mengxue had no regrets. She had already thought of this and was just asking.
"If I have a bicycle, do you have a way to get a license plate and stamp it?"
Guan Hongjun's eyes bulged out, "You can even get this?"
Jiang Mengxue didn't say anything.
Guan Hongqi calmed down a bit and thought for a moment: "Registering the car isn't that difficult. I have a classmate who works at the Public Security Bureau. I can ask him for help, or I can go to a scrap yard or a trust store and ask someone to issue a certificate."
Jiang Mengxue was speechless. Your classmate is a police officer. Are you working in the black market to help him boost his sales?
"I see. I'll contact you if I need any help later. I have six watches left. I'll give them all to you."
In the end, Guan Hongqi rounded up the amount and gave her 1,100 yuan. Jiang Mengxue did not refuse, as he must have earned a lot of money in the past two days.
Jiang Mengxue came out of the black market, took off her makeup, changed back into her usual clothes, and walked towards school. Halfway there, she remembered something, found a secluded place, got some things, carried them in her hands, and walked for about half an hour before she arrived at the school gate.
