Chapter 82 Huili Net Shoes
But since this was the case, Shen Ruoqing turned around and left.
She first turned into an empty alley, changed her clothes, put on a human skin mask, took a voice-changing pill, and then let Dalong out. Then she swaggered towards the black market.
As soon as the black market gatekeeper saw Shen Ruoqing and Dalong, he hurried to find their boss, Brother Biao.
Shen Ruoqing was invited into a courtyard.
"Brother Xiaoliu, you are finally here. Do you have goods in hand? You don't know that the price of grain has been rising recently. The price of rice has risen to this level!" Brother Biao made a six with the number "Only a few people are selling grain, and the price is getting higher and higher! As long as you have goods in hand, brother Xiaoliu, we will definitely make a fortune during this period!"
Shen Ruoqing frowned. The price of grain, which was only two or three yuan before, has increased tenfold. Who can afford such a high price?
"Brother Biao, I have a batch of these goods, but the price is a bit problematic."
Brother Biao was stunned. Could it be that Brother Xiaoliu was still not satisfied with the price? He wanted to sell it at a higher price?
"Brother Xiaoliu is indeed far-sighted. I have also received news that when the summer harvest comes, food will be even more scarce. The food we have can indeed be sold at a new high price!"
"No, Brother Biao, you misunderstood what I meant. What I meant was that the price is too high. We have to sell it lower. It would be better to sell it the same as before, with rice selling at three yuan per catty and coarse grains selling at a few cents per catty. And I want to sell a batch of low-priced grain to the government." Shen Ruoqing said.
Brother Biao looked at Shen Ruoqing like a fool: "Brother Xiaoliu, are you destroying the market price to do good? Tell me, you have money but don't make it for charity? Do you know how much we can make now? And you still sell low-priced grain to the government? Are you going to give up your head and mine?"
"Brother Biao, listen to me first. I believe you also know about the scam of X country's improved seeds, right? Although the matter has not yet fermented fully, the top leaders must have received the news and are trying to solve it. If we really sell large quantities of high-priced grain, we will be the first target to be killed to scare the monkeys. Think about it, do you dare to make money from the national disaster? Do you think the people behind you can protect you?"
Shen Ruoqing's words made Brother Biao shudder. If he could do black market, Brother Biao must have someone behind him. He was almost blinded by the benefits. Now most of the country is short of food. If he dared to blatantly sell large amounts of high-priced food, wouldn't he be the one being sacrificed?
"Then what do you say we should do? Can we still make this money?"
"Brother Biao, can you tell me who is the backer behind you?"
Brother Biao hesitated: "Actually, I have saved a high-ranking official in our county before."
Shen Ruoqing looked at Brother Biao in surprise. He originally thought that Brother Biao only had a small backer, but he didn't expect that Brother Biao's backer was actually a county official. But in her opinion, the position of the county official was a bit small, and she didn't know if he could get overseas connections.
"Go back and contact your backer, and tell him that you have a way to get a large amount of low-priced grain to sell to the country, and ask him to find a way to solve the problem. You can make an excuse that the grain was obtained by overseas Chinese from abroad, and then you can take care of customs and other things. I will only be responsible for providing you with the grain. The official price I give is ten cents per pound for rice and five cents per pound for coarse grains." Shen Ruoqing didn't want to make any money from this country, so she would take whatever price the system mall gave her.
She remembered that she had learned in history class that the country had made many concessions to Country X in that year, so that it could purchase a large amount of grain at a high price to survive the crisis. With her here, her motherland would no longer be constrained. In fact, Shen Ruoqing had not made up her mind before, but after digging kudzu roots and seeing the attitude of the villagers towards grain, she finally made this decision.
"What? Rice is ten cents per pound? Isn't this cheaper than what the grain station sells it at?" Brother Biao looked at Shen Ruoqing in shock. The grain station's rice is twenty-three cents per pound, and you need a grain coupon. Brother Xiaoliu actually said he would sell it to the country for ten cents per pound? He already knew that Brother Xiaoliu was very capable, but he didn't expect him to be so capable. There are actually a lot of free grains! Yes, this price is already free in Brother Biao's eyes! "Brother Xiaoliu, I didn't expect that I still underestimated you." Brother Biao cupped his hands. He never suspected that Xiaoliu was lying, because this matter was so serious, there was no need for Xiaoliu to joke with him.
"Oh, I have another request."
"What do you want?"
"Can you help me find an identity for Dalong? This time, the credit for selling grain at a low price will be given to Dalong."
"Okay, I will tell my superiors about this request." Brother Biao personally sent Shen Ruoqing out. After Shen Ruoqing left, he went straight to the home of a senior county official.
After solving this problem, Shen Ruoqing changed back into his clothes in a good mood and went shopping in the department store.
While walking around, I saw two acquaintances - Lin Chen and Wei Shuangshuang.
"Comrade, can you show me this pair of white mesh shoes? Do you have size 36?" Wei Shuangshuang, who had two braids and a hair flower given by Shen Ruoqing on her braids, said to the salesperson.
The salesperson took a look at Wei Shuangshuang and saw that she was well dressed, so he took down the Huili white mesh shoes without hesitation.
"This pair of shoes is very beautiful." Wei Shuangshuang liked them as soon as she took them.
"Comrade, how much is this pair of shoes?" Lin Chen asked.
"8.86 yuan plus a shoe ticket." Nowadays, the smaller the shoe size, the cheaper it is.
Lin Chen was about to pay when Shen Ruoqing's voice came over: "Sister Shuangshuang, what a coincidence, are you shopping for shoes too?"
When Lin Chen saw Shen Ruoqing, he had a bad feeling.
"Ruoqing! What a coincidence! Are you here shopping too? Look, this is the latest model of Huili mesh shoes. Isn’t it nice-looking? Oh, by the way, as I introduced to you, this is my classmate Lin Chen." Huili is a big brand now. If you own a pair of Huili shoes, everyone will envy you.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"Sister Shuangshuang, there's no need for you to introduce Lin Chen. He is a top student in our village! We know each other." Shen Ruoqing said with a smile.
"Ah? You are from the same village? This is such a coincidence! Then we are all friends!" Wei Shuangshuang was very happy.
"Yes, and Lin Chen's fiancée and I are also good friends!" Ignoring Lin Chen's warning look, Shen Ruoqing's words made Wei Shuangshuang's expression change: "Lin Chen, do you have a fiancée?"
Shen Ruoqing seemed to realize that he had said something wrong at this moment, and looked at him apologetically: "Shuangshuang, don't you know? No wonder, we country people usually get engaged earlier."
The people around them, including the salesperson, who heard their conversation, all looked at Lin Chen and Wei Shuangshuang with disdain. Originally, they thought that these two were a couple, but they didn't expect that this handsome gay man had a fiancée.
"Shuangshuang, listen to my explanation..."
Before Lin Chen could finish his words, Wei Shuangshuang slapped him in the face.
"What do you have to explain? You have a fiancée, but you still want to date me? You're such a liar!" Wei Shuangshuang ran away in anger, not even wanting the white mesh shoes anymore.
"Shen Ruoqing! Are you satisfied now?" Lin Chen looked at Shen Ruoqing resentfully and hurried to chase Wei Shuangshuang.
