After hearing this, Shen Feihong couldn't help scratching his head.
"Big sister, I'm telling you the truth. This thing didn't come from a legitimate source. At the beginning, whoever saw it got a share. I exchanged my share of the bracelet with you for ten kilograms of flour yesterday. I can't be sure whether my brother has sold his in the past two days."
Feng Qingxue thought that the origin he mentioned was just someone who took advantage of the situation when the house was confiscated, so she said seriously, "Brother, please ask him how much food he is willing to give me in exchange for the bracelet if it is still there. If it is not there, I can only say that I am not destined to have that bracelet."
If there is no fate, there is really nothing that can be done.
"Okay, I'll ask for you." Shen Feihong didn't refuse, "But you have to be mentally prepared."
"What preparations?"
Shen Feihong smiled and said, "The bank's gold price is five yuan per gram. That bracelet is not light. Even if the gemstones are worthless, the gold alone can be sold for more than a hundred yuan. The government is particularly willing to buy it. I'm exchanging the bracelet for ten kilograms of flour because it's too rare. Others don't have it, and I need it urgently. Otherwise, I wouldn't give it to you so cheaply, sister."
"Money is not a problem." Anything that can be solved with money is not a big deal.
Moreover, except for the money that Lu Jiang sent to Lu's father before they met, which was in Lu's father's hands, all the wages sent later were in his hands. Before going to the battlefield, Lu Jiang sent him 5,000 yuan in one go. He had the money Lu Jiang had given him before and the money from selling grain. There were not many places to spend money at home, and the total of several sums of money must be at least 8,000 or 9,000 yuan.
After listening to this, Shen Feihong nodded and said, "That's right. I don't think you are short of money or food, otherwise you wouldn't be so happy. I'll ask my brother first if he wants money or food. If he wants money, you give him money, if he wants food, you give him food."
"Sorry for the trouble, brother."
Shen Feihong asked Feng Qingxue to find a place to wait for him while he went to find the brother who had the bracelet.
Feng Qingxue sat on the side of the road to rest, with her backpack at her feet. She had been waiting for Shen Feihong for a long time but he didn't show up. Just as she was getting anxious, she suddenly saw Wang Dachun coming out of the department store, "Cousin, are you here to buy something?"
"Xiaoxue? Why haven't you gone home yet?" Wang Dachun was still carrying the shoulder pole, but the things in the bamboo basket were obviously lighter.
The biggest evidence is that the carrying pole did not bend.
Feng Qingxue whispered, "I want to exchange something with someone. I'm waiting here."
"I'll wait with you! I'm worried about you being alone!" Wang Dachun immediately put the burden next to Feng Qingxue, squatted down, and wiped the sweat from his forehead. His bronze face, thick eyebrows, big eyes, and muscles gained from farming quickly dispelled Feng Qingxue's concerns about his safety.
By the way, my three uncles and my aunt are all very nice, young and old. I guess the saying "family education is passed down through words" is true.
The two siblings squatted and sat, chatting to relieve their boredom.
"Isn't Jiaojiao getting married soon? I'm here to buy her some things as a dowry." This was also the biggest reason why Wang Dachun appeared in the black market carrying grain. He would have money by selling some grain. Together with the tickets that Zhang Yuejin had saved for him and the money that his parents had received this year, he could prepare a very expensive dowry for Wang Jiao.
Feng Qingxue asked hurriedly: "Has the date been set?"
Wang Dachun touched his crew cut and said, "It has not been decided yet. We will decide the specific date when the Zhang family proposes. I don't know what Jiaojiao said to Yuejin, but the Zhang family will propose a few days before the wedding. Our family does not require them to prepare any three turns and one ring. It all depends on their wishes. When Jiaojiao gets married, she will take it back as a dowry."
