Chapter 18: Black Market Selling



Those people were very alert, and when they saw Lin Chaoyang coming, they stared at him intently.

"Brothers, I want to ask, is there anyone collecting food here?"

The voice of 놛 was deliberately raised, and 놆 sounded quite smart.

This kind of voice is more in line with my outfit today. I look like a smart young man.

One of the bearded men looked down and seemed not to believe it.

After all, today's outfit doesn't look very reliable.

"My uncle is a cart driver. He has some connections and can get food from outside. It's fine if you don't want to take it."

After Lin Chaoyang finished speaking, he turned around and left, but the men were a little hesitant.

"Hey, wait a minute, don't leave in a hurry, let's chat for a while."

Lin Chaoyang turned around and said, "No time to chat, my uncle asked me to help find someone to help."

The men looked at each other, and someone stepped forward to pull Lin Chaoyang back.

"Do you really have food? You can't fool us, right?"

Lin Chaoyang pretended to leave again, "Do you think I'm just teasing you guys when I have nothing better to do? If I really want to give you food, you can just leave if you don't want it."

The bearded man quickly stopped them, "No, no, no, we're afraid something might happen, it's safer to ask a few more questions."

Lin Chaoyang nodded. "Yes, but you have been asking me for a long time. If you still don't believe me, forget it. Find someone else."

The bearded man smiled and said, "I don't believe it. The main thing is that I don't know how much food you can take out, brother?"

Lin Chaoyang thought for a while, "There are about 200 to 300 kilograms now, and we can transport some more later."

The men were obviously in high spirits. Although two or three hundred pounds was not much, they could still continue later, and that was the key point.

"How much can be transported at a time? How often?"

Lin Chaoyang didn't dare to report more. After all, even if he was a truck driver, he didn't dare to transport food every day openly.

"My uncle's route is long, and he travels back and forth once every ten days. When he comes back, he can bring back two or three sacks."

This substitute sack is relatively large, and one sack can hold about 100 kilograms.

According to the figures reported by Lin Chaoyang, he sold about 200 to 300 kilograms of grain every ten days, and less than 1,000 kilograms in a month.

I've calculated before that with all the food stored in the Chao warehouse, there are more than 10,000 kilograms of rice alone, which can be sold for a lot of money.

There are also flour, noodles and other kinds of food, etc., which can make a lot of money during this period.

It doesn't matter if you keep the share you prepared for yourself and sell all the rest.

After this difficult period, it will not be difficult to buy food, and we can buy more food to fill the supermarket for backup.

The men were obviously tempted. They looked around and took Lin Chaoyang to a brothel next to the house.

"Brother, I won't beat around the bush. We'll collect the grain, and this is the amount per kilogram."

The bearded man pointed two fingers and Lin Chaoyang just shook his head when he saw it.

"Two cents and eighty cents, no less. It's not worth it for you to take such a big risk and earn so little."

Lin Chaoyang went to sell grain himself at 40 cents a pound, which was reduced by half in an instant. It was a huge loss.

If the purchase price is only two cents, it would be better to go to the county town more often during your rest time and sell more yourself.

The bearded man shook his head. "Two cents and eighty cents is too high. We don't have money to earn."

Lin Chaoyang smiled and said, "Everyone is scrambling for food now. The price of black grain has skyrocketed. You can earn some money at 2.8 yuan."

The bearded man wanted to say something, but Lin Chaoyang interrupted him, "My base price is 28 cents, not a cent less."

Seeing that the men were hesitant, Lin Chaoyang added, "The harvest in the countryside is difficult this season, and you will definitely make a lot of money in the future."

The bearded man thought about it, and finally nodded, "Okay, let's do as you said, brother. 28 cents a pound."

Lin Chaoyang then showed a sincere smile and stretched out his hand, "Dear Zhao Xiaolin, please take good care of me in the future."

The bearded man held his hand and said, "Just follow Ma Erge, we all follow this."

Lin Chaoyang nodded and said, "Brother Ma, I will deliver the food tomorrow."

Ma Erge was very satisfied, and said a few more polite words to Lin Chaoyang before sending him out.

Lin Chaoyang was discharged from the hospital in a good mood, and went back to the coal mine dormitory happily.

The next morning, Lin Chaoyang borrowed a unicycle on the street for 1 cent.

Only after pushing the cart to the vicinity of the courtyard did Lin Chaoyang put the prepared food there.

Ma Erge was waiting in the yard early in the morning. When he saw Wang coming, he immediately helped Wang push the cart in.

"There are three hundred kilograms in total. Brother Ma, please weigh them."

It was the first time for the cooperation, and Brother Ma did not refuse and directly let the person weigh it.

Three hundred pounds is not a small amount. Lin Chaoyang had already measured it accurately with an electronic scale in the supermarket yesterday.

Brother Ma readily took out a wad of money and stuffed it into Lin Chaoyang's hand.

According to the price agreed upon yesterday, 300 kilograms of grain would cost 84 yuan.

Lin Chaoyang counted them clearly in front of him before putting them in his pocket.

Seeing that he had accepted the money, Ma Erge tried to speak again.

"Brother Zhao, I want to ask, your uncle went out to drive the car, can he bring back something else?"

Lin Chaoyang thought for a while and asked, "Brother Ma, what do you want to order? Ask your uncle later."

Ma Erge rubbed his hands together and said, "Maltese, canned food, milk powder and other nutritional products are easy to sell. It would be best if we can get them."

Lin Chaoyang thought about it and decided that canned food and milk powder were easy to deal with, but malted milk was a bit outdated and was not available in the supermarket.

"You can ask your uncle later. If there is any, I will tell you next time I send food over."

Ma Erge nodded quickly and politely escorted 놛 out.

As Lin Chaoyang walked back, he was thinking about what kind of news he should bring to Brother Ma next time.

Malted milk is indeed hard to come by, so it's better to prepare some milk powder and canned food in the next few days.

He did what he said. When he returned to the dormitory, Lin Chaoxing was still in the kindergarten, so Lin Chaoyang went straight into the dormitory.

The milk powder in the supermarket is all in modern packaging, so you definitely can’t take it out. It would be a shame if someone saw it.

Lin Chaoyang sat on the ground, thinking about how to change the packaging of the milk powder.

As I was thinking about it, I saw a can of milk powder. The outer packaging shell was a piece of paper wrapped around the can. If you tore it off, you couldn't see anything.

Lin Chaoyang quickly took a can, looked at it, and felt that this method was quite feasible.

Seeing that it was almost lunch time, she was very hungry, so she went out of the supermarket and took away some milk powder, just in time for Lin Chaoxing to drink some to supplement her nutrition.

When I came back from lunch and was about to start tearing off the wrapping paper, I suddenly discovered that there was not a single can of milk powder missing from the shelf.

녦놛 I just took a can, there should be a gap, right?

Lin Chaoyang felt something was wrong, so he took another can of milk powder, counted how many were left, and then left the space.

When I came in again, I found that the milk powder on the shelf had been replenished.

Lin Chaoyang counted them carefully several times and found that there was actually one extra can!
