One ten-yuan note isn't a lot, but it's not a small amount either. It's enough for about half a month's living expenses at home.
He casually slipped it into his pocket, glanced at the approval slip, and became even more enthusiastic.
"So you were introduced by Old Li."
In this era of scarcity, being a butcher was a pretty good profession.
At least it's convenient to buy meat.
Due to limited supply, even if many people had money coupons, they might not be able to buy meat.
