"Can we exchange it for grain?" Liu Xiaojun thought that he still had five pounds of flour in his backpack, and exchanging two or three pounds should be enough.
"Okay, the food is better!" The hunter showed surprise in his eyes.
"The price of flour on the market is 18 cents, so three pounds is 54 cents. Your bamboo rat is meat after all, so selling it for 50 cents is a loss. You don't have to give me the extra 3 cents. Let's just be friends, okay?"
"That's great!" The hunter became even more excited when he heard that it was an exchange for flour.
"Young man, I'm Li Gousheng from Zhangjia Village. My home is the first one at the entrance of the village. If you need anything next time, just come directly to me." The hunter looked to be in his early three years old. He had been hunting all year round. He was sturdy and strong, about 1.8 meters tall, and was two heads taller than Liu Xiaojun when standing.
Liu Xiaojun looked up at him, almost unable to suppress the smile on his lips.
The 1.80-meter-tall guy is called Goushenger???
Hahaha!!!
However, rural people do like to give children some vulgar names, as vulgar names are easier to raise.
Names like Gousheng'er and Goudan are all top choices.
Liu Xiaojun spent three cents to make a hunter friend, which was not a loss at all.
If I want to go up the mountain to hunt wild boars in the future and am worried that I can’t do it alone, I will definitely find him.
Moreover, Li Gousheng often hunts and knows which mountains have prey, so he can ask him for advice.
"Okay, my name is Liu Xiaojun and I live at No. 95 Nanluoguxiang. You can come and see me directly next time you come to the city."
The two quickly exchanged goods, exchanged a few words, and then Liu Xiaojun took his fish to another place.
Liu Xiaojun randomly found a stall, put the big catfish in his hand on the ground, and waited for other people to come up and ask.
The fish is very fresh and still alive, with its mouth opening and closing.
In Pigeon Market, fish is still very popular. Someone asked about it as soon as I put it down.
"How much do you want to sell this fish, kid?"
Liu Xiaojun was fiddling with the fish in his hand with his head down, and the voice of the question sounded somewhat familiar to him.
When he looked up, he was startled.
"Wang..." As soon as he shouted the word "Wang", the rest of it was swallowed up in his stomach.
The person who came was actually Director Wang from the Subdistrict Office. Didn't their Subdistrict Office manage the Pigeon Market? Why did they come to the Pigeon Market to buy things?
"Since you want it, I'll give it to you." Liu Xiaojun took a catfish and handed it to Director Wang.
Director Wang immediately pulled Liu Xiaojun to a secluded place and asked, "Xiaojun, why are you selling fish here?"
"It's not that I can't eat at home, I caught a few fish in the river by chance, so I thought I'd give it a try."
This fish is a good thing, and Director Wang and his street office are in short supply of it.
"If you have anything in the future, just send it to the street office and I'll buy it from you at the original price. I want all the fish." Director Wang said in a low voice.
"Are you buying this fish for yourself or for the street office?" Liu Xiaojun asked casually.
"Buy one for yourself and give the rest to the street office."
"Then I won't take your money. You always take care of my family. If my mother knew I took your money, she would definitely scold me when she got home."
Director Wang had no choice but to accept it.
"You kid, don't do this again next time."
"Okay, I won't do this next time." Liu Xiaojun said with a smile.
"Let me tell you, every family is having a hard time these days. With only rationed food, no one can get enough to eat. Plus, with all the speculation going on, no one dares to buy or sell privately. That's why the pigeon market is here. The subdistrict office is in charge of this pigeon market, but they can't push people too far."
"So that's how it is. Director Wang really understands the people." Liu Xiaojun nodded in agreement.
"Xiaojun, please don't call me Director Wang. It seems so distant. Call me Aunt Wang from now on."
"Okay, Aunt Wang." Liu Xiaojun raised his eyelids and immediately got the message.
Director Wang bought the fish and left. Liu Xiaojun waited until she was far away before checking the money in his hand.
I had three fish, gave one away and sold two, earning a total of one dollar.
Liu Xiaojun had sold out everything he wanted to sell, so he turned around and ran to Yong'an Hall to buy some pagoda candy.
