"Oh? What do you want to buy?"
"I need to buy two things. First, I want some cloth bags to carry the grain. As you can see, I use a lot of bags every time I send you grain. Now we don't have many cloth bags at home anymore, so there's nothing to carry the grain anymore. Also, I want to ask if you have any white wine?"
"Cloth bags and liquor? Yes, what kind of liquor do you want? How many cloth bags do you want?"
"I'll take as many cloth bags as you can get, and I'll also take as much good liquor as you can get. If you have any now, we can trade now."
"Yes! I still have two boxes of Moutai, and there are so many cloth bags, I haven't even counted them. If you want them, I'll have someone bring them over to you right now!"
"What's the price?"
"Moutai sells at the supply and marketing cooperative for 6.5 yuan, I'll give you 13 yuan. Two boxes of 12 bottles, a total of 156 yuan. The cloth bags hold 50 kilograms, and each one is 1 cent."
Xu Jianguo took out 156 yuan and handed it to Mr. Jin, saying, "Mr. Jin, please send a brother to move the wine and cloth bags to the yard where the poultry are kept. This is the money for the wine. I will pay for the cloth bags after I count them. I'll go over and wait now."
Mr. Jin took the money, nodded, and arranged for someone to go back and get the things, while he prepared to take out the various tickets in the wooden box and give them to Xu Jianguo.
At this moment, a familiar system prompt sound came from Xu Jianguo's mind.
[Ding, the system senses the energy fluctuations of the two world stones. The system senses the energy fluctuations of the two world stones.]
"Two Worlds Stone?" Xu Jianguo's pupils shrank slightly.
"System, give me a hint. Where are the two boundary stones? Can't you just merge them directly?"
[The system senses that the energy of the Two Realm Stone is in the wooden box on your right hand side. There is an unknown substance blocking it, so the system cannot integrate it.]
"Mr. Jin, can you give me this wooden box? It's hard to put so many tickets in it, and it's just the right size to put the little goldfish in!" Xu Jianguo's voice came, interrupting Mr. Jin's actions.
Mr. Jin thought about it and realized that there were indeed quite a lot of tickets. He didn't take it seriously and said, "Okay, you can take them with you. It will save me from having to go out and buy them."
Xu Jianguo nodded and said with a smile, "Thank you, Mr. Jin!"
"It's just a broken box, don't be polite!"
"Xiao Wu, lead the way for my little brother. Remember to bring the money back later. I won't be going over here. We have to hurry and move the things here."
"Yes, Mr. Jin!" Xiaowu agreed.
"Mr. Jin, I'll be leaving first. See you later!" Xu Jianguo said with a fist salute.
"See you later!" Mr. Jin returned the greeting.
Xu Jianguo carried the wooden box and left the yard with Xiao Wu. Not far away, they arrived at another empty yard. They pushed the door open and entered the yard. A young man came out of the house. Seeing that it was Xiao Wu, he quickly said happily, "Fifth Brother!"
"Shunzi, this little brother is here to pick up the goods, you can go back now!"
"Really? That's great! I've been stuck in the yard all day, and I feel like I'm going to stink up!"
"Okay, let's go back!"
"Okay, I'm leaving now!"
The young man named Shunzi quickly left the yard. Xu Jianguo entered the inner yard and began to check the poultry and livestock.
There are 20 chickens, ducks, geese, 20 pigs, 10 cows and sheep, 30% male and 70% female. The number is correct, and they all look in good condition, proving that they are well fed.
It seems that Mr. Jin is reliable in doing things.
When Xu Jianguo came out of the inner courtyard, he found that the things he wanted had been moved in. Two boxes of Moutai liquor and a pile of cloth bags were piled on the ground.
Xu Jianguo made a rough estimate and found that there were at least five or six hundred of them.
He pulled a large black ten-yuan note from his pocket and handed it to Xiaowu, saying, "There are only about 600 of these bags. I'll give you 10 yuan, and the extra is for the brothers to drink."
Xiao Wu was overjoyed and quickly said, "Little brother, you are so righteous!"
After taking the money and putting it in his pocket, Xiaowu left.
Xu Jianguo listened to the footsteps going away outside the yard, put the white wine and cloth bag on the ground into the space, then put away the wooden box and backpack containing the tickets, and finally put away all the living things in the inner yard.
After identifying the direction, Xu Jianguo took a step forward, twisted his waist, and climbed over the courtyard wall.
After turning several corners in the alley, Xu Jianguo left Wuyi Lane, found a deserted place and entered the space. He washed the ink off his face, changed into work clothes, then slipped out of the space and walked towards the Red Star Machinery Factory.
When he returned to the dormitory, Xu Jianguo found that Funiu was not there. He looked at the time and guessed that Wen Sitian must have taken her to the cafeteria for dinner.
When he arrived at the cafeteria, it was the peak time for workers to get their meals. On the way, many people who knew Xu Jianguo greeted him, and he responded with a smile.
After looking around, I soon found Wen Sitian and Funiu among the people queuing.
Xu Jianguo smiled and walked towards the two of them. Just when he was about to reach them, a figure ran past him and stood next to Wen Sitian.
"Sitian, are you here to get some food? Whose child is this? She's so cute!" The speaker was a young man in his 20s who wore glasses and looked very gentle. He wanted to reach out and rub Funiu's hair, but Wen Sitian hugged him and he dodged.
Xu Jianguo thought that this person was Wen Sitian's suitor, so he stood not far away and did not go over.
"Gu Mingqi, I don't know you well, please call me by my full name!"
"What's the big deal? Won't you get familiar with it after a few more interactions?"
"I don't want to have any contact with you. Please go to the back and queue up. Don't delay me from getting my meal!"
"That's right, you're a grown-up, why are you still trying to cut in line?"
