[How much does grain cost per pound in that later era?]
[One yuan is one jin, which is equivalent to one liang of silver and one jin of grain.]
After confirming the price with the president, Mengyue felt like she had been screwed.
She remembered the grain in the town's grain store. The miscellaneous grains were only three kilograms per pound, and the good grains were five kilograms.
Here, one tael of silver can buy more than 300 kilograms of miscellaneous grains and 100 kilograms of good grains.
But you can exchange it for gold, silver and jewelry in the mall. One tael of silver is only one catty, which has increased hundreds of times. The price is sky-high.
Mengyue looked at the only two boxes of jewelry left in the space again and asked without giving up.
[Tuanzi, please talk to the customer service and see if you can get a lower price.]
【Okay, Suku.】
After a moment, he looked at Mengyue dejectedly.
[No, we have to go by this price. They're so stubborn, they'll sell it if they want to, and they'll just ignore us if they don't.]
Mengyue, who had never worried about money, frowned.
【Ah~Ah~Ah~Suku, Suku, there is good news, good news.】
Seeing that Tong jumped for joy, Mengyue's brows relaxed.
What good news?
[Suku, the customer service lady said that the price of food can't be changed. It can only be one yuan per catty. Here it's only one or two taels. But...]
【But what? 】
[Suki, I'm sure you'll be happy with the news I'm about to share. Can you give me a durian as a reward?]
Mengyue didn't want to indulge this bad habit of her husband, so she said it nonchalantly.
[If you want to say it, say it. If you don't want to say it, forget it. After all, it's not just my job to collect gratitude points.]
"Hey, Suku, let me tell you. The customer service lady said that the jewelry we have is very valuable in the post-era. A jade hairpin made of fine mutton fat could sell for millions."
【Oh, that's true.】
[Of course, when have I ever lied to Suku?]
Mengyue saw the serious look on his face and knew that he was not lying.
She looked at the jewelry in the box. Although the quality was not top-notch, it was not too bad. It was no problem to sell a jade bracelet for hundreds of thousands.
In this way, we can exchange it for hundreds of thousands of kilograms of grain.
As long as you spend a few pieces of jewelry, you can probably get tens of millions of kilograms of grain.
It seems that we don’t have to worry about food in the future, nor do we have to worry about too many refugees and no food aid.
The food problem has only been solved, and she still needs to think carefully about how to use the food she has exchanged for.
After all, the story of the farmer and the snake will be played out in any era.
She also didn't want the person she rescued to experience the feeling of being indebted for a small favor and then resented for a large one.
What's more, one of the important reasons why she was willing to help refugees was to gain gratitude from them so that she and Tuanzi could survive in this world.
Although Tuanzi learned from the God that the task of collecting 100 million gratitude points is no longer a one-time deadline and can be extended.
But for some reason, even though she felt uneasy, she still felt it was better to finish it first and get a chance to survive.
Otherwise, if an accident happens and she and Tuanzi are forced to disappear, wouldn't that be too unfair to the lives they have.
She has not yet avenged her father, built the retirement village she had in mind, or experienced the ups and downs of life for ordinary people.
More importantly, she was pregnant with more than one baby.
When I was a killer, I lived on the edge of a knife every day. I never knew when I would be killed secretly. I never thought that one day I would be able to have a baby and become a happy parent.
