Chapter 1733: Digging a hole for Chen Guang
More than half an hour later, the oxcart stopped at the entrance of the county town. After Lu Xiaoxiao got off the oxcart, she asked Liu Jianguo, "Uncle Liu, has the time to come to the county town in the morning been changed? Has the time to return to the village been changed?
“There are changes. To be more precise, it’s not a change, but you won’t have a bullock cart to ride on when you go back, because I’m going back to the village now and I won’t come to pick you up in the afternoon.
If you want to take the bullock cart back to the village, you must stay in the county town for one night, and then take the bullock cart back to the village the next morning when I send people to the county town."
After listening to Liu Jianguo's words, Lu Xiaoxiao nodded and said to Liu Jianguo: "Thank you, Uncle Liu."
"You're welcome. I'm going back to the village. Please be careful when you go around the county town."
"good."
After Liu Jianguo left, Lu Xiaoxiao looked at Wan Xuemei and said, "Sister Xuemei, I have something to do. Can you wait for me at the station?"
"Can."
"Then I'll go do my work. I'll be at the station before nine."
"good."
After Lu Xiaoxiao entered the county town, she immediately walked towards the black market. She arrived at the black market so early and didn't know whether Chen Guang was there. If Chen Guang was not there, it would be a bit troublesome.
More than ten minutes later, Lu Xiaoxiao arrived at the black market. She saw Chen Guang squatting in front of a stall looking at vases, so she walked up to Chen Guang and said, "Chen Guang, I have something urgent to talk to you about."
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, Chen Guang immediately put down the bottle in his hand, and walked towards the back hall with Lu Xiaoxiao.
"Mr. Xiao, can you please tell me what urgent matter you want to talk to me about?" Chen Guang asked Lu Xiaoxiao after he came to his room.
"Try the maltose in this bottle first, and then I'll tell you why I need you so urgently." Lu Xiaoxiao said as she took out the maltose she had prepared yesterday from her bag.
Although Chen Guang didn't understand why Lu Xiaoxiao did this, he still took a piece of maltose from the bottle and ate it as Lu Xiaoxiao said.
After he finished eating a maltose, he immediately asked Lu Xiaoxiao: "Master Xiao, where did you buy this maltose?"
"Don't worry about where I bought the maltose. I just want to ask you how it tastes."
"It's delicious, better than any maltose on the market."
After hearing what Chen Guang said, Lu Xiaoxiao felt relieved, so she looked at Chen Guang with a smile on her face and said, "Since you think this maltose is better than the maltose on the market, how much do you think it's worth per kilogram?"
"Eight yuan. It can be sold at least eight yuan per pound on the black market." Chen Guang said without thinking.
"Okay, I'll sell you the maltose at the lowest price of eight yuan per pound. I'm loyal, right?" Lu Xiaoxiao slammed the table after hearing Chen Guang's price.
Chen Guang only realized that he had fallen into the trap that Lu Xiaoxiao had dug when he heard the sound of Lu Xiaoxiao slamming the table. It turned out that Lu Xiaoxiao had been digging the trap for him since she asked him to eat maltose, but he didn't realize it at all and just jumped into the trap that Lu Xiaoxiao had dug for him. He was so stupid.
"Mr. Xiao, you can't let me work for nothing. I'm talking about the price on the black market. You have to let me earn some money for my hard work." Chen Guang looked at Lu Xiaoxiao with pitiful eyes.
"Chen Guang, I'm not selling this batch of maltose to you so that you can sell it on the black market, but so that you can give it to others during the New Year. I don't think I need to say more about what's going on."
