Li Jinfeng glanced around cautiously before responding to the man's words, "Yes! Fine grain."
When he heard about the fine grain, the man's eyes lit up immediately and he looked at Li Jinfeng excitedly, "Fine...fine grain?"
"We have both white rice and flour. Which one do you want?" Li Jinfeng asked in a low voice.
"I want...all of them! We...we shouldn't trade here, right?" The man was probably too excited and his speech was stuttering.
"Let's find a place where there is no one!" said Li Jinfeng.
One after the other, Li Jinfeng and the man in work clothes left the night market and found a place outside the night market where no one would notice them.
"How much do you sell your fine grains for? How much do you have?" the man asked.
Li Jinfeng did not waste any time, but because she had not inquired about the prices of transactions at the provincial capital's night market, she could only trade at a price similar to that in Anwu County.
Anyway, after this transaction, she will have enough money to give to her uncle.
"Four dollars and a half a pound, without coupons! If you have food coupons or industrial coupons, three dollars a pound will be enough! I have a total of twenty pounds of fine grains, ten pounds of rice, and ten pounds of flour!"
After hearing the price and quantity of fine grains mentioned by Li Jinfeng, the man's originally bright eyes became even brighter.
He was a worker in a state-owned factory in the provincial capital. His monthly salary, all in all, was thirty yuan. As for the industrial coupons, he had been saving them and had never spent them.
Without saying a word, the man took out sixty yuan from his pocket, plus a sixty yuan industrial coupon, and gave it to Li Jinfeng.
Li Jinfeng also gave all the fine grains in her backpack to the man.
After taking the fine grains, the man opened the cloth bag and took a look at the plump white rice and white flour inside. His expression became more and more excited.
With these fine grains, my family doesn’t have to eat coarse grains all the time.
If you eat too much coarse grains, your body won’t be able to digest them, and every time you go to the toilet, it’s a torture.
"Thank you, girl! Do you have any food left? I can exchange it for you. Even if... even if the price is a little higher, it's okay!"
Every month, the man would come to the night market here to exchange food with others, sometimes coarse grains, sometimes fine grains.
But no one's food was as good as the food brought by this inconspicuous and even ugly girl in front of him.
Li Jinfeng narrowed her eyes, thought for a moment, and agreed. "This time the day after tomorrow, still here, I'll bring another 15 kilograms of fine grain! But there's only 15 kilograms left. We can't afford any more!"
Li Jinfeng also didn't want to be bothered by anyone.
But the person in front of me seems to be relatively reliable.
Since it is still a business, there is no need for Li Jinfeng to take the risk of looking for someone she is not familiar with.
Whether it is a county town or a provincial capital, every underground transaction carries potential dangers for Li Jinfeng.
When trading with strangers, I am afraid of being tricked.
When doing business with acquaintances, I am afraid that people will remember my appearance over time.
Fortunately, Li Jinfeng from the provincial capital doesn’t come here often, so this half-time transaction won’t have any impact on her.
"Okay...Okay! I'll wait for you here the day after tomorrow!"
Taking the food he exchanged for, the man left quickly. His steps were completely different from his previous weak look when he had nothing in his hands.
Li Jinfeng waited until the man walked away before she carried the basket and walked out.
Before she had gone far, she was stopped by an extremely low voice, "Girl, do you... do you have any food to exchange?"
