Chapter 1545 Buying groceries
"Boss, what's the matter that you called me out for?" Monkey asked Zhang Xu.
"Give me the keys to the car."
"ah?"
"There's no food at home, give me the car keys."
Monkey now understood why Zhang Xu asked him for the car keys, so he immediately took out the car keys from his pocket and handed them to Zhang Xu. When he heard Zhang Xu asking him for the car keys, he thought they were going back to Beijing.
"Let's go." Zhang Xu said to the little girl after getting the car keys.
"good."
When Lu Xiaoxiao and Zhang Xu arrived in the county town, they did not go to the black market immediately, but walked towards the supply and marketing cooperative. Because the weather was hot, they could not buy too much meat. If the supply and marketing cooperative had meat, they would not have to go to the black market.
"Comrade, do you have any meat for sale?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked the salesperson.
"There's no meat left. There are only three pig's feet left. If you want them, they're fifty cents each. No ticket required."
After hearing what the salesperson said, Lu Xiaoxiao did not immediately ask for pig's trotters. Instead, she asked the salesperson to take out the pig's trotters for her to see. If the pig's trotters were fresh, she would buy all three.
If it was yesterday, the salesperson would definitely ignore Lu Xiaoxiao, but just this morning the director held a meeting and gave each of them a task, and her task was to sell all the pork.
If you only sell pork, that's very simple, because pork is a scarce commodity now. As long as the supply and marketing cooperative puts the pork out, it will definitely be sold out in a short time.
However, few people would buy meatless pig feet and bones, so most of the time they are left over and digested internally.
However, since pig's feet and bones have no meat, internal staff would feel dissatisfied if they had to digest them for a long time, so the director gave her this task.
"Okay, I'll get the pig's trotter now." The salesperson said this and turned around to get the pig's trotter.
After Lu Xiaoxiao waited at the door of the supply and marketing cooperative for a few minutes, she saw the salesperson walking towards her carrying three pig's trotters.
"These three pig feet were all delivered together with the pork in the morning. They are absolutely fresh. If there were not so little meat, they would definitely sell better than meat."
After listening to the salesperson's words, Lu Xiaoxiao took the pig's trotter from the salesperson, then she moved closer to the pig's trotter and smelled it. When she didn't smell any strange smell, she said to the salesperson: "Comrade, I want all three pig's trotters."
When the salesperson heard what Lu Xiaoxiao said, she immediately laughed happily, and then she immediately went back to the counter to issue a bill for Lu Xiaoxiao.
After buying the pig's trotters, Lu Xiaoxiao didn't buy anything else. There were a lot of vegetables in her backyard at this time of year, so there was no need to buy any. As for the snacks, she didn't want to eat them because the weather was hot, so after buying the pig's trotters, she went home with Zhang Xu.
"Lu Xiaoxiao, Boss, you're back." When Monkey saw Lu Xiaoxiao and Zhang Xu walking into the yard, he immediately stood up and said.
"Why don't you go lie down on the kang?"
"My wound has almost healed after two applications of medicine, so I don't need to lie in bed anymore."
"Oh, then you go and light the fire."
"good."
After Monkey went to make a fire, Lu Xiaoxiao planned to take the pig's foot from Zhang Xu to process it, but just as her hand touched the straw rope tied to the pig's foot, she saw Zhang Xu move the pig's foot away.
"Zhang Xu, please prepare the pig's trotters for me, otherwise we won't be able to eat at noon." Lu Xiaoxiao said to Zhang Xu.
