Speaking of fermented bean curd, the woman smelled it carefully again, and then an expression of sudden enlightenment appeared on her face.
That’s right, it smells like fermented bean curd, not shit.
"Girl, how did you get fermented bean curd on yourself?" the woman asked.
"I brought some cooking oil with me today and was afraid someone would smell it, so I used this method," Li Jinfeng explained.
After she said this, the woman immediately understood.
Then, a look of ecstasy appeared on her face. "Girl...Girl, do you have vegetable oil? Sell it?"
These days, food is hard to come by, and oil is even harder to come by.
Not to mention these city people, even those people who grow oil in the countryside can only eat cottonseed oil, but that stuff tastes dull and bitter in the mouth. If they can eat a meal of delicious dishes fried with vegetable oil, they will die happily these days.
"Sell! But it's not cheap. Two pounds of vegetable oil, three dollars and a half a pound. And you need food coupons, one pound of oil and half a pound of food coupons!"
Li Jinfeng didn't know about other things, but oil was definitely a precious item. Even if you went to the supply and marketing cooperative, you might not be able to buy it.
"A pound of oil and half a pound of food coupons?" The woman opened her lips, with a painful expression on her face.
Oil at three dollars and fifty cents per pound is definitely not expensive, but if you have to pay for a pound of food coupons, that's a bit painful.
After all, there were no food coupons among the other tickets she prepared. They were all cloth coupons, salt coupons, coal coupons and industrial coupons, with industrial coupons accounting for the majority.
"Well, there's no hard and fast rule that grain requires food coupons, nor is there a fixed amount, but oil does require food coupons, and the amount is fixed."
Li Jinfeng knew that these formal employees in the city had a lot of different kinds of tickets on hand, some of which they could not use at all.
Moreover, at the night market, no one can beat her price. Fine flour costs at least four or five yuan per pound, and you need food coupons. Her prices start at two yuan and end at three yuan. You can give the coupons as you like, and she won't say if it's more or less.
It’s not difficult for them at all, after all, it’s not easy for everyone.
The woman finally compromised. One pound of food coupons was one pound of food coupons. At worst, she could go to her brothers' homes to ask for some and give each of them two or three taels of cooking oil.
"Okay, girl, I'll do as you say!"
Li Jinfeng placed 15 kilograms of rice and 10 kilograms of flour on the ground in the woman's house.
There was an electronic scale in Li Jinfeng's space, and the number was actually accurate, but the woman still weighed it in front of Li Jinfeng.
He even brought a container of oil from home and measured it again, confirming that there were two kilograms of oil before he started to calculate the bill.
"Fifteen pounds of rice, ten pounds of flour, two pounds of oil... My dear, look at how much we bought. Can you please make it cheaper? Sell the rice to me at two dollars and fifty cents a pound so I can settle the bill."
Li Jinfeng thought it was just a second business deal, so she agreed without saying anything.
But she didn't expect that her concession was the beginning of the woman's further demands.
"It's sixty-nine dollars and a half! My girl, my family doesn't have that much money. How about...how about you give me a lower price? I'll give you sixty dollars, five dollars worth of industrial coupons, and three ounces of sugar tickets!"
The woman has always been stingy, and her man never told her this before he went out.
He asked the woman to see how much stuff she had. If it was a lot, he would prepare 30 yuan of industrial coupons, 300 grams of salt coupons, 1 pound of sugar coupons, and some cloth coupons.
Nothing else matters. What matters is keeping people stable. It would be even better if we can make a long-term business.
But the woman forgot everything.
Just thinking about saving money and tickets.
In particular, she suddenly said, "Actually, I think this is too expensive. On the market, a pound of rice is only ten cents!"
