Chapter 430: Hearing the News 4
In this world, it’s strange that the good things grandma talks about are worthless.
After Shen Feihong stated his request, he looked at Feng Qingxue nervously, afraid that she would think he was asking for too much. But he had no choice, he had to get food to feed those cadres who had private dealings with him.
Not expensive, Feng Qingxue thought.
She nodded to Shen Feihong, "Brother Feihong, we have an agreement. The money and goods have been paid, and you are not allowed to regret it!"
Shen Feihong grinned, "No regrets, no regrets. If you regret, you'd be a bastard! Compared with food, these jewels are nothing. In this world, food is the most important thing. In 1961, I exchanged 200 kilograms of sweet potatoes for a big yard. Now the rent alone is enough for me to support my grandmother." He couldn't help but show off his great achievements.
Feng Qingxue's eyes widened. Two hundred kilograms of sweet potatoes, not dried sweet potatoes, in exchange for a large yard? What a good deal!
So, according to the market situation, I thought I got a bargain by exchanging the coarse and fine grains for the jewelry, but in fact it was the other party who got a bargain, right? Right?
Shen Feihong didn't know what Feng Qingxue was thinking, but he gave her another stab in the back, "On the black market, except for gold and Yuan Datou coins that can be sold for some money, everything else is very cheap. If you can exchange them for a few pounds of coarse grains, the other party will be very lucky. Sister, if you like, I'll get you some next time. Just prepare the food for the exchange." He didn't want any money either.
"Brother, you are not honest. You just said that you spent a lot of money and food, but now you say it is not worth much. If it is not worth much, why do you accept it?" Feng Qingxue was very curious. According to common sense, it is normal for ordinary people to accept gold and silver jewelry, and few people want jewelry.
Shen Feihong did not hide it from her and replied, "My grandma said that those are all good things. They were very valuable in the past, but the world is not right now. But it will do no harm to keep them in your hands. I listened to my grandma. When I had extra food and money, I went to various black markets and dealt with those who participated in the confiscation of property. I got a lot of things from them. Sister, we are in the same boat. We should share what we have in the future. Don't forget me when you become rich."
"Same here, same here."
Feng Qingxue put away the things, returned to the bedroom and put them directly into the space, then came out to call Lu Jiang to serve food and invited Shen Feihong to eat together.
Anyway, it's just ordinary simple food and drink, not eye-catching.
After the meal, Lu Jiang packed 20 kilograms of white flour and 50 kilograms of corn flour for Shen Feihong. Shen Feihong took the flour bag and bamboo basket. According to Feng Qingxue's suggestion, Lu Jiang handed him a dozen eggs sent by Cheng Baoguo.
Shen Feihong blinked to get rid of the bitterness in his eyes.
Lu Jiang sent him out of Wanglou Brigade, and when he came back he saw that the branch secretary's office was full of people. It was not from their own production brigade, and there was a lot of noise. There was also a mule cart and several single-wheeled carts that did not belong to their production brigade.
"What happened?" Lu Jiang called out to Wang Dachun who was rushing over.
Wang Dachun stamped his feet and said, "What's the matter? It's the end of the year, life is hard, come and borrow the reserve grain!"
The reputation of Wanglou Brigade has spread. Some time ago, Wang Zhengguo attended a meeting in the commune, and the cadres of the commune praised him in public. He felt something was wrong at the time. Don’t think this is a good thing. It’s not easy to be a model. Now, the extremely poor Huoguang Production Brigade came to the door and asked to borrow food, reserve grain!
