Chapter 68 Secret Deal



Zhou Huaian felt relieved when he heard Su Qingxue agreed.

Su Zhiqing didn't bring any mutton back yesterday, but we had mutton in the evening. This shows that he has some ability.

He also wanted to add more meat to feed his grandfather and Grandpa Sun Rui. He had no time for hunting, nor did he have tools like bows and arrows.

But a family like theirs has everything, including money. It would be even better if they could exchange it with banknotes.

"Su Zhiqing, can I trade some mutton with you? Grandpa and the others seem to like it very much."

Su Qingxue did not object. After all, the prey was caught in the mountains. If she couldn't finish eating it, she could exchange it for some money.

Anyway, she never complained about having too much money, and she was hoping to buy a street in Beijing in a dozen years.

In order to realize this dream, the pace of saving money cannot stop.

"Of course you can, but it would be a bit embarrassing if someone saw us. Why don't you come to the back door of my yard when no one is paying attention? Tell me how much meat you want in advance, and I'll wait for you there."

"I want to buy more. How much does Su Zhiqing have?"

It's a rare opportunity to buy meat, so I definitely want to buy more.

In addition, the autumn harvest is coming soon. Not only will I be extremely tired, but my grandfather's work will also be very heavy. If he doesn't eat well, my grandfather and his family will definitely not be able to bear it at their old age.

Su Qingxue thought about the sheep from yesterday. After dissecting it, it weighed only about 30 kilograms.

Adding what I ate last night, I should weigh about 20 pounds including the bones.

But there are still rabbits and pheasants in his own space, so it doesn't matter even if he gives him ten kilograms of mutton.

"I can give you ten kilograms, but no more!"

Zhou Huaian showed a big smile on his face. Ten kilograms of mutton was already a lot.

If we eat sparingly, we will definitely be able to get through this autumn harvest.

"Okay, thank you Su Zhiqing. I'll knock on your back door at one o'clock. Please pay attention to the time."

"OK!"

The two people walked slowly behind, talking in low voices, worried that they would be heard by others.

After saying this, we quickly separated to avoid being misunderstood by others.

The aunties in the village only need to say one word, but after it gets spread several times, it might spread that two people have slept together.

They must not be allowed to spread rumors about things that have not happened yet, so most of the people in the educated youth sites will pay special attention to this aspect.

If Zhou Huaian hadn't come over to talk to her, Su Qingxue might not have talked to the gay men in advance.

Yes, she is that introverted.

After returning to the educated youth center, I quickly took out the prepared meals in the space. I was busy all morning and was almost starving.

After eating, he went to the backyard and fed the little rabbits some grass. Then he took out some firewood from the space. Except for a little space for raising rabbits, the rest of the space was filled up.

I looked at the watch on my hand and it was not far from one point.

I went straight back to the house and took out the mutton in the space. I cut ten pounds of mutton with even fat and lean meat. I felt that the rest was a bit disappointing.

But when I think about eating it myself, I seem to be less picky.

I'm going to go to the river this afternoon to clean up the mutton offal. The mutton offal soup seems to be delicious.

It has to be done right, otherwise it will taste terrible.

Suddenly I heard a knock on the back door. I looked at the time and it was already one o'clock. I quickly put the meat in a basket and covered it with some grass.

He went straight to the backyard and said, "Here, ten pounds of mutton. When the basket is used up, don't forget to return it to me."

There are only two or three baskets in total, and I can't lose them before I learn how to weave baskets.

Zhou Huaian took a look at the meat inside and considerately covered it with grass. Su Zhiqing was thoughtful.

He quickly took out 20 yuan from the bag and handed it to Su Qingxue. "Normal mutton should cost a little more than one yuan, but it requires a meat ticket. I don't have a meat ticket, so I'll give you a little more money. Is that okay?"

Su Qingxue took the 20 yuan directly with a big smile on her face, "Sure, of course! I'll come find you next time if I have a way!"

He just waved at him, closed and locked the door, counted the money to make sure it was indeed 20 yuan, and quickly put it away.

Maybe Su Qingxue was too fast, Zhou Huaian was stunned for a moment.

After a long while, he chuckled. He didn't expect that Su Zhiqing looked so cold, but he didn't expect that he was actually a little obsessed with money.

After laughing, he picked up the basket, went around the back of the main house and went straight into his own backyard.

Everyone was resting at the moment, so no one saw them except Sun Rui, who had known about the noise for a long time and heard it. He went out to check it out, and came back after making sure that nothing was wrong.

Except for Sun Rui, without anyone else knowing, the two of them secretly traded ten kilograms of meat.

Originally, Su Qingxue was planning to go to the river to clean up the sheep's internal organs in the afternoon, but when she saw the money that had just entered her pocket, she felt that the internal organs were not worth cleaning up, so she decided to go to the mountains first.

He changed into black clothes, put on Liberation shoes, poured a pot of boiled water, added some sugar, put on his backpack and walked towards the back mountain.

After going up the mountain, they went to more secluded places. There would definitely be no prey in places that people often go to.

Even if there were, they would have been scared away long ago.

After walking for more than half an hour, I finally heard the call of pheasants. I quietly walked over and saw two male pheasants fighting each other like cross-eyed cocks, with a female pheasant watching the fun nearby.

I feel like there can't be two tigers in one mountain, unless they are one male and one female.

He directly activated his wood-related abilities, tied up all three pheasants, broke their necks, and put them directly into the space.

I looked around to see if I could find their nest.

Maybe the hen hasn't laid eggs yet. I only saw a place that looked like a chicken coop, but there was no egg in it.

I could only keep moving forward, and not let go of any running rabbits or flying pheasants.

Maybe the route we took was different from the day before. After walking for about two hours, we found ourselves at the edge of the reservoir.

This reservoir was built in a valley inside the mountains. It is very large, covering approximately several hundred acres.

The water feels bottomless and I don’t know how deep it is.

I didn’t expect to come here. After all, there are dozens of big fish in the space.

But thinking about the fact that there is so much water here, if the wild animals in the mountains are thirsty, they will probably come here to drink water, so we can try our luck.
