The autumn harvest had just ended, and everyone had food in their hands. They also had the energy and conditions to prepare some delicious food. Those with better conditions found ways to find chickens, ducks, and pork to nourish their families.
Eggs and live chickens were selling particularly well during this period. Shen Ruofei and the others worked hard to make money. The three of them had been busy with speculation recently and had not cared about firewood at all. They were also unaware of the lawsuits that had occurred among the male educated youth over collecting firewood.
Shen Ruofei went to the county, so let's not talk about it. The people in the county have much better consumption than those in the villages below. One hundred chickens and one hundred eggs don't cost a lot of money at all. She went there twice, and the number of chickens increased from one hundred to one hundred, and the eggs were all ordered at one hundred and seventy steps.
Seeing that more and more chicken orders were coming in, Yi Xiaoqiu became a little restless.
"Ruo Fei, we have a good relationship. I asked my uncle to leave these hundred chickens for you. No one else has them. Don't tell Song Ying and Su Mianmian about it. If they find out, it will offend them. If they ask, just say you're selling corn grits. That's what she always sells."
The chickens and eggs were so easy to sell that Yi Xiaoqiu was unwilling to just sell one batch. In order not to destroy her uncle's character, she racked her brains to come up with this idea. As for next time, she also had an explanation. Her uncle exchanged chickens with people from the same village in order to make more money.
Shen Ruofei was touched. "Okay, don't worry, I won't make it difficult for you. I won't let anything slip. I just sell corn grits."
After Shen Ruofei left, Luo Wanlin came to place an order. Yi Xiaoqiu still used the same excuse, but Luo Wanlin just looked at her calmly.
That look was somewhat meaningful. Yi Xiaoqiu instinctively didn't want to think too much about it and continued to play dumb.
"Okay, I'll sell corn grits."
Song Ying also ordered a hundred chickens and a thousand eggs. Although she went to several nearby cooperatives, the autumn harvest had just ended and the farmers had grain in their hands. In addition, they had been tired from the autumn harvest for so long, so they had to replenish their grain. Therefore, consumption during this period was much higher than usual.
Seeing that these chickens and eggs were selling so well, Su Mianmian wanted to raise more to sell, but she overestimated her ability.
She had never raised chickens before, and the chicks died after a few days, so she had to give up the idea of raising chickens to make money.
Although she could enter and exit her farm at any time, it was no different from other ordinary farms and she had to do everything herself. It took a lot of effort for her to manage such a large farm by herself.
Her abilities were limited, and many parts of the village were left in disrepair.
However, her bamboo forest was still green, and she had been taking care of it herself. She harvested a lot of bamboo shoots in the fall, and every time she went to the black market, she sold a lot of dried bamboo shoots and fresh bamboo shoots.
But none of these can compare to the demand for grain and meat, which is why she went to Yi Xiaoqiu to get the goods.
She did not order as many chickens as Shen Ruofei and the others, two hundred chickens and a hundred eggs.
"Su Zhiqing, we have a good relationship. I asked my uncle to leave these chickens for you to sell. No one else can sell them. If they find out about this, it will be very offensive. If they ask, just say you are selling corn grits."
Su Mianmian was a little touched. She didn't expect that Yi Zhiqing always treated her as his best friend and only left the opportunity to make money to her. Yi Zhiqing was such a nice person!
The three of them were fooled by Yi Xiaoqiu for a while, but as for the future...
Yi Xiaoqiu didn't dare to think about it.
The male educated youth in the front yard went up the mountain to chop firewood every day, leaving early and returning late. The three speculators in the backyard were even busier than them and were basically nowhere to be seen.
Although Yi Xiaoqiu doesn't have to chop wood, she still has to go to the farm every day to prepare the things that Shen Ruofei and others will sell every day. Although there are no robots, she is not free to do anything. She still has to use a magnifying glass to deliver the goods early in the morning.
In order to store cotton, Yi Xiaoqiu spent a lot of gold coins to build a warehouse.
During this period, Yi Xiaoqiu had some free time and once again set his sights on Shu Shu, but unfortunately there was not even a mosquito around him.
When Su Mianmian took a leave to sell goods, Chi Shupei followed her to protect her. When Su Mianmian went up to peel corn, Chi Shupei followed her, not giving anyone else any chance.
Yi Xiaoqiu actually couldn't find any opportunity to cause any damage, and the mission was stuck for a while.
As for the other two girls, there was no sign of love at all, they were only focused on making money.
Yi Xiaoqiu was also helpless.
Time passed quickly and it was October. The weather had turned cold. When Xie Zhiqing and Lu Zhiqing saw Yi Xiaoqiu, they stared at her eagerly. People who didn't know the situation would think that Xie Zhiqing liked Yi Xiaoqiu!
Yi Xiaoqiu rolled his eyes at the two of them and said, "Alright, stop looking at me like that. I'll give you the cotton-padded jackets in two days. I won't let you two get cold."
Last time she forgot about the supply and marketing cooperative and only remembered to buy things for herself. She even forgot about the cloth for making cotton clothes for the two of them and went to Java.
It seems that I have to go to the company one of these two days and buy myself some thick cloth to make two sets of cotton-padded clothes.
As for selling goods from door to door, Yi Xiaoqiu decided to quit. She couldn't make much money just by running from door to door, and it was too much trouble. It was still easier for women to make money every time they bought goods.
During this period, she earned more than 10,000 yuan just by purchasing goods.
Not counting the gold, she is already a millionaire, a 73% millionaire. Yi Xiaoqiu is feeling proud.
As for the tickets he would use on a daily basis, Yi Xiaoqiu decided that at worst he could just exchange them with Shen Ruofei and the others later.
"That's great! All I need for winter is cotton clothes." Xie Xingzhi chuckled.
As a poor fellow, he lacked not only cotton-padded clothes, but almost everything. However, cotton-padded clothes were the most important winter equipment, so he was quite nervous about it.
"Don't worry, I'll keep my word and I won't let you go through the winter without cotton clothes."
That evening, Chi Shu came to the educated youth site in the dark, carrying a silly roe deer.
When Song Ying saw the roe deer that Chi Shu was carrying, her eyes flashed and she felt a little tempted.
The roe deer Chi Zhiqing brought weighed about ten kilograms and was specially brought for the purpose of treating guests.
He wants to treat everyone to meat.
That’s right, the kind that eats meat and brings its own food.
Chi Zhiqing had been in the countryside for less than half a year, and his food supply was very limited. If he also asked for food, he didn't know how many days his food supply would last.
Just treating us to meat is pretty good too.
By the time it was almost dark, the meat was ready.
Everyone gathered in the backyard with their bowls in hand.
Yi Xiaoqiu also came out with a bowl of rice.
As soon as she came out, everyone's eyes turned to the rice in her bowl.
That's pure rice, not mixed grain rice with sweet potatoes and beans.
Many people were secretly swallowing their saliva.
Xie Xingzhi and the other two saw eagerness in Yi Xiaoqiu's eyes.
Yi Xiaoqiu did not fail to notice it. She glanced at the food in other people's bowls calmly.
Potato rice, sweet potato rice, two corn tortillas and black-faced steamed buns, all kinds of food.
In short, the economic conditions of the educated youth can be seen from this bowl of food.
Ever since Yi Xiaoqiu had a housekeeper to help her with cooking, she had been hiding in her room to eat alone every day. She really didn't pay attention to what other people ate.
"No wonder Yi Zhiqing hides in the house to eat every day. The food is really good, even rice." Zhao Shuhong said sourly.
She didn't have much food, so she could only eat a mixture of fine grains and coarse grains. Thinking that there would be meat today, she specially used sweet potatoes to cook rice, the kind with more sweet potatoes and less rice.
After seeing Yi Xiaoqiu's bowl of steamed rice, I felt sad.
"I have a lot of food, isn't it normal for me to have a good meal?" Yi Xiaoqiu immediately retorted.
She didn't want others to doubt her source of income just because of her living standard.
All signs of trouble must be nipped in the bud.
It’s no wonder that Yi Xiaoqiu is cautious. She is not like Ku Jiao, who is protected by Ku Jiao’s halo. For her own safety, she must be cautious.
