Chapter 14: Most of the Net Worth is Spent (1/2)



Seeing that the old man wanted to take her to a secluded place, Lin Jianxue immediately became alert.

There are all kinds of criminals in this place, who knows what this old man is up to? If he gets greedy and lured me into a deserted place and robbed me, I would be in dire straits.

She took a step back calmly, putting some distance between herself and the old man, stiffening her neck and speaking a little colder.

"Nowhere else but here! Don't try to be cunning!"

As Lin Jianxue spoke, she secretly observed the surrounding environment.

Although this alley is narrow, there are always bad guys coming and going. If something really happens, she can always get help by shouting.

"Oh, sister, you've wronged me! I'm an old man and I'm really doing business with you!"

Seeing Lin Jianxue's attitude of "If you dare to touch me, I will fight you to the death", the old man quickly waved his hands with a helpless look on his face.

As he spoke, he could see Lin Jianxue's caution, so he simply opened his army green coat, revealing a cowhide bag slung across his body.

The old man looked around vigilantly, then opened the briefcase and showed the contents to Lin Jianxue.

"Big sister, look, I have the real stuff here! When I went out today, I brought fifty kilograms of grain coupons, all in ten-kilogram pieces, five for one kilogram. I also brought twenty one-kilogram meat coupons. I also brought five half-kilogram sugar coupons! I also brought ten industrial coupons! In addition to these, there are also cloth coupons, soap coupons, match coupons... There are also quite a few miscellaneous things. Big sister, just tell me what you want!"

Lin Jianxue looked at the pile of colorful bills in his briefcase and couldn't help but be surprised.

This guy has quite a lot of stuff!

These days, supplies are in short supply, and these tickets are hard currency, more valuable than money.

This old man can produce so many tickets, it seems that he is really rich.

However, she remained expressionless and asked calmly, "How much are you selling the food and meat coupons for?"

Seeing that Lin Jianxue was interested in buying, the old man immediately perked up and moved closer, saying, "As for the price, let's negotiate! Any price is fine. Just name your price, sister. As long as the price is right, I'll sell it to you!"

How could Lin Jianxue know the market price of these tickets?

This old man is obviously a sly old man. He wants her to name a price, but he wants to test her background and take the opportunity to make a killing from her.

She didn't want to be led by the nose by this old man.

She snorted coldly and said deliberately: "If you don't tell me, then I won't buy it from you. I'll ask others how much they sell it for!"

After she finished speaking, she made a gesture to leave.

"Oh, sister, no, no, no! Don't go!" The old man was immediately anxious when he saw this. He quickly reached out and grabbed her arm, fearing that the deal would be lost. "Let's discuss it! I was just joking with you!"

He knew that the girl was not one to fool around, so he stopped beating around the bush and quickly quoted the price honestly.

"These food coupons are divided into national food coupons and local food coupons. National food coupons are more expensive, 10 catties cost four yuan. Local food coupons are cheaper, 10 catties cost two yuan. Which one do you want?"

Lin Jianxue wanted national food coupons.

Fu Zhawei's family is from Northeast China, and the local food coupons are useless.

However, she still kept a cautious eye on the old man and said, "I'll ask someone else first. If your price is right, I'll buy from you. How about that?"

This old man had been playing tricks on her just now, so there was no guarantee he wouldn't continue to trick her.

She would have to ask elsewhere to find out if he was asking for an exorbitant price.

"You big sister, you really are..."

The old man smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"Don't worry, I definitely won't let you suffer any loss! If you want to ask, just ask. I don't believe there is anyone in this dark place who can be cheaper than me, an old man!"
