Time passed by in a busy manner, and in the blink of an eye it was time for Wen Nuan to trade wild ginseng with Ye Lao San.
Wen Nuan still set out from the educated youth point before dawn and didn't reach the grove outside the town until 8:30 in the morning.
Wen Nuan planned to make a quick decision this time and go back before lunch.
Fortunately, when we got there, Ye Laosan and his companions had already arrived.
"Why did you come here alone, sister? You can't carry so much food back by yourself!" Ye Lao San still smiled.
"How can I be alone?" Wen Nuan looked at Ye Lao San with a joking look, "My husband and a few young men in the village are waiting not far away. You know, if this is discovered, we will be in big trouble. How can I let them show up!"
"Sister, you are so righteous!" Ye Lao San gave a thumbs up in admiration. "The food is all here. Sister, can you check the goods first?"
"No need, I trust Third Brother!" Wen Nuan waved her hand, took out a cloth bag from the basket behind her, opened it and showed it to Ye Lao San, "Here are the two wild ginsengs!"
Ye Laosan looked at the two high-quality ginsengs in Wen Nuan's hand with excitement. He reached back and Haozi immediately handed him a cloth bag.
"Sister, this is just the money for the wild ginseng, a total of fifteen thousand. After deducting 800 for food, there are still yuan left. Take a look!" As he said that, Ye Laosan handed the cloth bag to Wen Nuan.
Wen Nuan also handed the wild ginseng directly to Ye Laosan, and the two of them exchanged the money and the goods.
Wen Nuan opened the cloth bag, which was filled with bundles of unity notes, 14 bundles in total and 20 individual notes.
In this era, there was no so-called counterfeit money as in later generations, so Wen Nuan took it out and checked to see that there was no white in the middle, then nodded to indicate that the transaction was successful.
"Okay then, sister, our deal is done!" Ye Lao San looked at Wen Nuan with a smile.
"It's done. Thank you very much, Third Brother!" She hugged her hands warmly.
"You're too polite, brother. I'm also grateful to you," Ye Lao San clenched his fists and returned the greeting. "To be honest, I will leave this town in a few days. I don't think I will have the chance to meet you again. All my forces will be withdrawn. I don't know who will take over this black market, whether it is a black or white one. So, I hope you will be very careful next time you come to the black market!"
Wen Nuan knew that Ye Lao San's words were a sincere gesture, and although she didn't plan to come to the black market in the future, she still accepted his favor.
"Thank you, Third Brother!" Wen Nuan clasped her fists.
"Goodbye!" Ye Laosan turned around and asked everyone to leave.
Watching Ye Laosan leave without any hesitation, Wen Nuan felt grateful for her good luck at meeting a loyal person. She probably would never see him again.
After Feifei made sure that Ye Laosan and the others had all left and there was no one nearby, Wen Nuan happily put all the food and cloth bags containing money directly into the space. Now she didn't have to worry about anything for the short term!
I had originally planned to finish the transaction and go back before noon, but the transaction went so smoothly, and with the impact of the great unity in the cloth bag, I couldn't suppress the joy that warmed my heart, so I decided to go shopping at the supply and marketing cooperative and then go to the state-owned restaurant to pack up some meat dishes!
When they arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative, they happened to see some defective cloth. Wen Nuan quickly squeezed in to take a look. It was a blue-black work cloth, which was very strong, but the color was bad and there were some spots on it. However, it was still very good to wear for farm work, so Wen Nuan directly bought 15 feet.
I went to the pastry counter and bought 2 kilograms each of biscuits, rice sticks, egg cakes, and peach cakes.
After finally squeezing out, Wen Nuan stood aside and tidied up her messed up hair and clothes. Suddenly, she found that there was an extra shelf next to the counter selling ready-made clothes. There were several white packages on it, but she couldn't tell what they were.
Wen Nuan walked over curiously, "Comrade, the working people are the most glorious. May I ask what's in those packages?"
The usually arrogant salesperson blushed for a rare moment. He let Wen Nuan lean against the counter and whispered something in her ear.
After saying this, the salesperson's face turned even redder, but her warm eyes lit up. This was exactly what she needed!
"Want a ticket?"
"It's a new product, so I don't need a ticket for now. But it's quite expensive."
"How much?"
"There are 20 in a pack, each one is 0.3 yuan, so a pack costs 6 yuan."
"Can I see it?"
"this……"
"Let me see. If this is what I want, I'll order 5 packs!"
"So many?" The salesperson looked at Wen Nuan in surprise. This thing is disposable and costs 30 cents each time. When it first arrived, she didn't believe that anyone would buy it. So when the director assigned her a sales task, she cried and made a fuss but the product was not sold. Unexpectedly, Wen Nuan actually wanted so much. Now all the tasks for the next three months have been completed!
The salesperson quietly called Wen Nuan to the side of the counter where there was a curtain, and quietly opened a package for her to see. It was the earliest version of sanitary napkins that Wen Nuan wanted. Although it was very thick, it brought her much more sense of security than toilet paper!
"Yes, this is what I want, 5 packs, no, 10 packs!" Wen Nuan was not sure if there would be more in the future, so she just bought more. Anyway, she had a lot of money now.
"I...we don't have so much stock..." The salesperson was a little stunned.
"Ah, how many are there?" Wen Nuan was a little disappointed.
"There are only 8 packs now..."
"Okay then, I'll take them all! Will there be more goods coming later?"
"I'm not sure about this, but I can ask the manager. If you want it, I'll keep it for you!" The salesperson finally reacted and her face turned red with excitement. She could get 4 yuan for these 8 bags!
“Okay, sister, I want a lot of this. If there is more in the future, you can keep it for me and I will come directly to you to get it!”
"Okay, fine! My last name is Liu, you can just call me Sister Liu from now on!"
"Okay, Sister Liu!" After handing the money to Sister Liu and putting all the packages into the backpack, Wen Nuan smuggled a handful of fruit candies out of the space, "I'll trouble Sister Liu to take care of this matter. Sister Liu, keep these candies for your sweet mouth!"
"Oh, I'm so sorry..." Sister Liu said as she quickly put the candy into her pocket, "I must have saved it for you, don't worry!"
"Okay, sister, I'll go first!" Wen Nuan waved her hand and squeezed out of the supply and marketing cooperative with a backpack on her back.
Today's unexpected gift brought Wen Nuan's joy to its peak. She happily trotted all the way to the state-owned restaurant. There were big meat buns today, so Wen Nuan bought 20 of them and prepared to pack them up to take back.
Then I ordered a chicken stewed with mushrooms and a sesame curlin and had a delicious meal.
This chicken stewed with mushrooms is so delicious!
Take a bite of the warm chicken, a sip of soup, and then take a bite of the curlers. It's so delicious!
When I leave, I pack two servings, one to send to Uncle Guo, and one to eat at the educated youth point tonight!
"Hello, 10 meat buns to take away!"
Suddenly, a clear and cheerful voice sounded. Wen Nuan looked curiously and saw a soldier in a green military uniform standing at the window ordering food.
