Chapter 1503 Lu Family Great-grandson 3

Ma Cuixia nodded and said, "Sister-in-law, I will be home soon. When I send them letters and things, I will tell her about this matter. Isn't Xiaoman going to get married soon? Her father and I are thinking of asking this friend to buy her a Shanghai watch! By the way, please pack up all the wild game and mountain products that you can't finish and send them to me. I will pay you according to the market price. It's not easy for people in the city to eat meat. The capital only supplies four ounces of meat per person per month, which is not enough to fill the gaps between our teeth."

"What money? It's so polite to ask for money." As long as she could help them buy the wool blankets that they needed to compensate them, the wild game and mountain products would be the thank-you gift. After saying this, Ma Dasao went to pack up and packed up most of the sack.

Boss Ma also took out a roll of Great Unity.

Ma Cuixia asked, "What does the wool blanket look like? Bring it to Qingxue and I'll send it to her. Please ask her to buy one according to the model."

Mrs. Ma immediately took out a wool blanket with several large holes in it. The blanket was folded at the time, and the flames fell on it and burned a large piece of it, creating four holes. The largest hole was as big as a bowl.

Ma Cuixia touched it and muttered, "This blanket feels worse than the material Qingxue gave to Xiaoman to make a coat."

"What?" A hint of confusion flashed across Ma Dasao's eyes.

Ma Cuixia smiled and said, "It was this friend we asked, the wife of Comrade Hu Ping, who gave us a piece of woolen cloth, bright red, imported, and not cheap at first glance. She said that Xiaoman was getting married, and if they saw it on sale, they bought it in advance to make a wedding coat for Xiaoman, and asked her to go to the city to find a tailor to make it herself, using ox horn buttons, so that we wouldn't damage the cloth. She was so generous, so of course we couldn't be stingy, after all, we still need help, so we came to ask you to send us wild game and mountain products."

After hearing this, Ma Dasao said hurriedly, "From what you said, it must be the best material. Xiaoman will definitely be the most beautiful new daughter-in-law when she gets married. We are waiting to see Xiaoman's new coat!"

Boss Ma said, "Your friend wants wild game and mountain products?"

"Yes, big brother. Both food and non-staple food are in limited supply in the city. Comrade Hu Ping's family is not short of money. They are of high rank and have many relatives and friends. Don't think that the things that sister-in-law has packed up are many. They may not be enough to share when they get home."

"Our family has lived here for hundreds of years. We all know which family has stocks. Your nephew goes up the mountain to hunt in groups, and they all know how much each gets. You can ask his uncle to ask his comrades if they need any. If they do, we will collect some privately and send it to them." said Mr. Ma.

Although there is a black market in the city, how dangerous is it? If you are caught, you will be sent to a labor camp, and your whole family will be disgraced. Therefore, many villagers dare not sell their goods in the black market when they are extremely short of money, let alone sell them to the supply and marketing cooperatives, because they are collectively owned and can only sell vegetables, eggs, etc. from their own garden.

Ma Cuixia has experience in this matter. After all, the Lu family has asked them to buy old mountain ginseng. Besides, her parents' family has more abundant supplies than her husband's family. "Okay, big brother, they will definitely want it. Don't worry about the money. They will give higher than the market price."

Boss Ma went out for a while, and after half a day, the uncles and aunts who were on good terms with him and in need of money came back with baskets.

Ma Cuixia had learned to read and count from Hu Ping and the children, so she listed all the money on a list and told them, "I didn't bring any money today, so I'll give it to you tomorrow. You won't lose a penny. Don't say you sold it. If anyone asks, just say we needed it. We wanted to send some New Year's goods to Hu Ping's comrade-in-arms, so we didn't give you any money."
