Chapter 22: Black Market Part 3

Most importantly, Zhao Xiulan’s hands are full of exquisite and expensive fine grains, but the prices are also so low.

 

So, if he buys them now and then resells them, he can make a lot of money in the middle!

Seeing that the man didn’t speak, Zhao Xiulan thought that her prices were higher, so he didn’t want to buy! After all, she didn’t know the exact prices of grains on the black market and just calculated it according to her own estimation.

While Zhao Xiulan was thinking about lowering the prices a little bit, she heard Guo Aidang said with full excitement, “Girl, then I will give you money and tickets, so you can sell them all to me!”

Although it costs a lot of money to buy them all at once, it is better to put these foodstuffs in his hands than anything else!

Especially these fine grains! Even if they are given away, it is also worthy of face!

“Okay!” Zhao Xiulan nodded in agreement. Selling to one person is a sale, and selling to two people is also a sale! If she sells them all at once, she can take one less risk!

“All right then… Girl, shall we look for a hidden place to trade?” Guo Aidang suggested.

You have to be cautious when trading, otherwise if you get caught, you will have to go to jail.

In the end, the two of them found a secluded place and there was no one around, so Guo Aidang took out the money from his pockets. Ten catties of rice cost 25 yuan, 10 catties of white flour cost 25 yuan as well, and 10 catties of dried noodles cost 30 yuan, for a total of 80 yuan.

Guo Aidang took out eight pieces of 10-yuan banknotes and handed them to Zhao Xiulan, and then took out some tickets from his pocket, “Girl, I only have these tickets, do you think they are enough? If not, I’ll find a way to collect some more for you. I might have to borrow from my colleagues…”

Zhao Xiulan looked at them and there were 5-catties food tickets, half-catty meat tickets, half-catty oil tickets, 1-catty sugar tickets, 2-feet cloth tickets, and 10-yuan industrial tickets!

Zhao Xiulan just let it be, since it’s almost enough!

Zhao Xiulan nodded, “Okay, this much is not bad!”

As Zhao Xiulan said that, she took out the goods from the basket and handed them to the man. Guo Aidang checked the foodstuffs and saw that there was no problem, so he quickly received the goods into his basket.

When the two of them had finished the transaction and were about to leave, Guo Aidang asked again, “Girl, do you have anything else there? If you have other good things, you can exchange them with me. If you have foodstuffs, you can also save me some. I will collect some money and tickets for you! Of course, a little higher than today’s price is no problem!”

As long as he can get fine grains, Guo Aidang is willing to spend more money. Guo Aidang knows in his heart that he had already taken advantage of Zhao Xiulan when he bought these fine grains today, and he is afraid that Zhao Xiulan will not be happy to sell fine grains to him again.

Although Zhao Xiulan still has foodstuffs, she thinks that she has already taken out so many things this time. If she takes some more, she is afraid that Guo Aidang will become suspicious. She has to be more careful and not reveal too much.

So, Zhao Xiulan said, “I don’t have anything left, but if you want, I can go back and make it up for you. There are foodstuffs like rice and dried noodles, also eggs and rapeseed oil, let me know what do you want!”

When Guo Aidang heard Zhao Xiulan say that in addition to fine grains, there are eggs and rapeseed oil, he was very excited.

Although it is not easy to get fine grains, you can still get them on the black market, but eggs and rapeseed oil are different.

These things are very scarce, even on the black market, they are rarely available.

Fortunately, he asked this question casually, otherwise he would have missed them!

Guo Aidang hurriedly said, “Girl, get me some, as much as you can!”

“Then I’ll come back tomorrow, shall we meet here again?” Zhao Xiulan said.
