Chapter 96 Making Money
The chickens at home are generally free-range, and they usually eat earthworms and worms.

Chickens are not fat, and they don’t lay eggs frequently. If you throw them away at home and eat one occasionally, it is considered a rarity to save ten eggs in half a month.

There were four women who entered the supply and marketing cooperative, and they brought a total of 35 eggs. Si Ningning saw it clearly from the side. The supply and marketing cooperative charged four cents each, and the total of 35 eggs was one yuan and forty cents.

Among the four, the one who got the most was [-] cents, and the one who got the least was [-] cents. Before the money was warmed up in their hands, they communicated with the salesperson at the counter, bought matches, cotton thread and other things, and then left one after another.

Si Ningning secretly sighed, the price of goods in this era is indeed low, one yuan and forty cents can buy 35 eggs, and in conversion, two yuan in her hand can buy 50 eggs.

"Comrade, what do you want?"

The girl at the counter interrupted Si Ningning's thoughts.

"Well, how do you sell the eggs?" Si Ningning came back to his senses and asked.

The salesperson was stunned for a moment, and asked with a smile, "Aren't you a local? I heard that a group of educated youths came from us a while ago. You are an educated youth."

Her tone was very firm.

Si Ningning was not embarrassed either, and nodded calmly.

Putting the eggs into the partition specially used to hold eggs, the salesperson said with a smile: "The supply and marketing cooperative only accepts eggs and does not buy eggs. If you want to buy eggs, you can also go to the vegetable market. The price remains the same."

The eggs collected by the supply and marketing agency will be sent to the market by people before closing every day at dark, and will be sold on the next day.

Because the quantity is small and the supply date is not fixed, there is no way to stay for a while. It is rare to supply once, and it is often swept away as soon as the stall opens early in the morning.

Si Ningning could probably infer some, so he didn't get entangled in the egg issue.

Holding the counter, he pointed to a few products on the shelf and asked about them. After learning the prices, Si Ningning pretended to think about them, and finally pretended that he could do nothing about the prices and didn't buy them.

After chatting with the salesperson for a few more words, Si Ningning weighed some glutinous rice sticks and crispy candies for [-] cents, then turned around and left the supply and marketing cooperative.

The supply and marketing cooperative collects the eggs and sells them without taking a commission. Some people may say that this operation is superfluous, but in the current environment, individuals are not allowed to buy and sell things. If they are caught, they are speculators and will be dragged out to parade.

As the saying goes, feed the bold to death, and starve the timid to death.

Timid people abide by the rules, and bold people take risks. If someone has a demand, there will be a market, and gradually the existence of a "black market" has emerged.

The purpose of Si Ningning's visit today is the black market.

The money she had on her was only two yuan and two, and after spending sixty cents, she had one and six cents left, two or three food stamps, and nothing else. Even if she wanted to buy something, she couldn't let go.

The first priority is to make money.

Looking for a place to put down the back basket, using the back basket to cover up and put the things he just bought into the space, Si Ningning picked up the basket again, walked along the road, glanced at both sides of the street, saw a corner alley, and didn't even think about it. I wanted to turn around and walked in.

There are not many brick and tile houses in rural towns. There are adobe tile houses on both sides of the alley, and 1 spider webs are condensed under the eaves. Some spiders hang upside down, and some come out at night.

Si Ningning walked along the alley for a while, and finally stopped at a corner.

The corner space is much wider than the alleyway. Two bundles of dry bamboo poles are leaning against the edge, and there are several broken baskets placed under the bamboo poles.

Si Ningning looked around, there was no one around, and there were no side windows in the alleyway, she was relieved a bit, she burrowed sideways into the small space between the bamboo and the wall, and turned around to enter the space with the help of two bundles of bamboo as cover.
