The reborn peasant girl has space for farming

Chapter 519: Lack of meat at the end of the year
At eight o'clock in the morning, Bai Meixi passed through the second door in the space and arrived near the Tongxian Reservoir. The temperature here was much warmer than Agu Mountain. Bai Meixi took off her big cotton-padded clothes and only wore a thick cotton-padded jacket. It looks much fresher than usual.

The vegetables at the herdsmen's market are as expensive as gold, but there are still many vegetables on the market here, and it is not difficult to buy them.

Bai Meixi gave herself a new name, Fourth Sister Bai, and her position was a buyer in a canteen.This identity is very popular in the vegetable market, and many vendors surround her to sell their vegetables.

"Sister, you should buy a few hundred kilograms. We have a lot of vegetables here, including cabbage, radishes and potatoes."

There is a big difference between private vendors and state-owned vendors in farmers' markets. Those who sell their own products are particularly enthusiastic, and the prices are much cheaper than state-owned vendors.

Bai Meixi feels that these state-owned stalls everywhere look like one family, and sooner or later they will be laid off and re-employed.

Bai Meixi remembers that the first batch of laid-off people started in 1982, which was only more than ten years ago. Before being laid off, these people had to go through the dilemma of not being paid for several months. With good luck, Those who are lucky may still be able to survive until retirement, but those who are unlucky can only hope for their own blessings.

"Sister, look at my vegetables. They are grown in our village. If you buy my vegetables, you are helping those blind dates, otherwise we will have no money to spend the New Year."

A teenage boy grabbed Bai Meixi's clothes and deliberately pretended to be an adult, trying to gain her trust.

But his young face betrayed his age. Bai Meixi judged that he could not be more than 13 years old at most, but the food in front of him weighed several hundred kilograms.It's really strange that a village would let such a young child come out to sell things.

"How old are you?" Bai Meixi took out a candy from her pocket. It was prepared for the children in the herdsmen's market, and it came in handy now.

The little boy hadn't eaten candy for many years. He swallowed when he saw the fruit candy in front of him. He looked at Bai Meixi to make sure she wouldn't hurt him, then put the candy in his mouth.

"I'm 12 years old." The little boy answered honestly. He was reluctant to finish the candy at once. After holding it for a while, he spit it out and put it on the candy wrapper, then stuffed it back into his pocket.

Bai Meixi noticed that the little boy's clothes were very shabby. They had been patched several times and were stained with mud. He looked like he was not having a good life.

"Why didn't the adults in your family come, but let you come out instead." Bai Meixi knew that not many people went out to work in this era. There were many strong laborers in the countryside, and they would not easily trouble a child to walk such a long way.

These hundreds of kilograms of vegetables are heavier than this child. I really don’t know how he transported these vegetables here.

"My father is dead and my mother is also sick. It was very difficult for me to ask the village chief for this job. Sister, the village chief said that these vegetables have been sold out and he will give me two yuan. I can use it to buy a few kilograms. Food to spend the winter with my mother.”

The child said it was very pitiful. Bai Meixi looked at the vegetables in his basket. These vegetables were very fresh and could be bought.

"I want all these dishes. In addition, I will give you 5 yuan more. You can buy a few more kilograms of grain to eat with your mother."

Bai Meixi felt very sorry for this child. The vegetables in front of him were 20 kilograms. Bai Meixi gave him 5 yuan for vegetables, plus 7 yuan for hard work. Taking into account the commission given by the village chief, he earned a total of [-] yuan today. , you can buy a lot of rice.

This amount of money is a huge amount of money for this child, and it can ensure that mother and child do not have to worry about food for a month.

"Thank you sister, my mother will be very happy to see all this food." The little boy excitedly took the money to buy food. Bai Meixi noticed that he only bought a small part of rice, and the rest were potatoes and sweet potatoes. , this kind of whole grain is cheap and satiating, and can be eaten for a longer period of time.Bai Meixi gave him all the candy in her pocket, which weighed half a catty. The little boy was very excited, even happier than when he saw the 5 yuan.

Bai Meixi continued her shopping and spent 2 yuan to find a villager to help cut 100 kilograms of fodder for the sheep, horses and camels. She also spent 10 yuan to buy 100 kilograms of soybeans to feed the horses.

This fodder was enough for the animals in the space to eat for a long time, at least until she left Agu Mountain, there was no need to buy more.

By the way, Bai Meixi paid 200 yuan for next year's warehouse rent. As a result, Bai Meixi's private money was only 759 yuan, which was back to less than 800 yuan.

This is a psychological warning line for Bai Meixi. Once her private money falls below this amount, she will feel very uneasy and must make more money to make up for the loss.

She transported these things back to space and took out the sheep.The mutton here is much more expensive than Agu Mountain, not to mention that Bai Meixi spent [-] to [-] kilograms of vegetables in exchange for this lamb, and the cost was only [-] to [-] yuan.

But according to the market price of mutton here, this sheep can be sold for at least 50 yuan, and the price difference cannot be underestimated.

Bai Meixi only brought a solitary lamb there, which was not as advantageous as the stalls in the market. She was worried that the whole sheep would not be sold at a good price, so she could only look around there, looking for suitable opportunities.

"Xiao Bai, why are you here? I haven't seen you for a long time." As soon as Bai Meixi took the sheep out, she saw Robin's father, Director Luo. This old man was not as energetic as before, but instead Somewhat sad.

"I'm here to sell a sheep. Director Luo, how are you doing lately?"

Bai Meixi exchanged casual greetings, but Director Luo's eyes widened. He heard that Bai Meixi wanted to sell mutton, and this person seemed particularly excited.He slapped his thigh suddenly and looked at the sheep as if he had found a treasure.

"Xiao Bai, please sell this sheep to us. I'll give you the same price as the market outside. If you want the whole sheep, there will be no meat coupons. It will be charged 9 cents per catty."

Director Luo is very generous. The price he gives is the black market price, 9 cents per catty, which means Baimeixi’s profit per sheep is close to 1 yuan. This business is more cost-effective than selling fast food.

"Director Luo, we are all friends. You don't need to be so polite. Even if you don't have a meat ticket, it will be calculated at 6 cents per catty. If you want to eat mutton, just take it home directly. I trust you, and the money can be used next time." Come and collect it again.”

Bai Meixi was able to receive so many agricultural and sideline products, thanks to Robin's help. A sheep was nothing to her, even if it was given to Factory Manager Luo.

"Xiaobai, you don't understand what I mean. It's not my family who wants it, but our factory. It's almost Chinese New Year, and the factory wants to give some benefits to its employees, but I can't buy mutton anywhere. I'm almost dying of anxiety. You have just enough mutton here, I want as many as you have."

Director Luo held Bai Meixi's hand and told her to help him. There were so many people in the winery, all hoping to stew a few kilograms of meat during the New Year and have a good New Year. If the factory could only distribute some vegetables in the end Carrot, let alone the employees’ opinions, even he, the factory director, can’t get over his own situation.

"No problem, Director Luo, I sold you this sheep. As for the other mutton, I will help you find a way."

Bai Meixi assured Factory Director Luo that the most indispensable thing in the herdsmen's market was mutton, and she would have as much as Factory Director Luo wanted.
