Chapter 648 Supplementary sources of supply

Chapter 648 Supplementary sources of supply
After Bai Meixi got the money, she wandered around the town. She hadn't gone shopping for a long time. The meat and vegetable storage in the space was running low and had to be replenished as soon as possible.

She found a vegetable market and found that there were a lot of Chinese cabbages, radishes and potatoes piled on the stalls, and a lot of corn harvested in autumn. The variety was richer than she had imagined.

She had a lot of money in her pocket and bought a lot of various vegetables. The door near the Tongxian warehouse had been moved by her. She bought some of these vegetables and put them back in the space without any effort.

Before she knew it, she had already bought hundreds of kilograms of vegetables, enough to feed the people in the space for a month. As long as she bought a few dozen kilograms more meat, she would be able to raise her baby in the space with peace of mind in the next month, without any more food. Went out on a bike.

The pork and beef were all still in stock and looked relatively fresh, but each type of meat required a meat stamp, which put Bai Meixi in a dilemma.

Since she stopped running the fast food business, she has used up all the food stamps and meat stamps in her hand. Every time Cheng Haiyi sent back the meat stamps, they were given to Bai Meixi's husband's family. Now she has nothing but money and can only use the black market. price to buy meat.

"No meat tickets? How can you buy meat without meat tickets!" The salesperson at the vegetable market gave Bai Meixi a blank look, thinking that she was here to cause trouble. They threw the pork on the chopping board back into the room and asked Bai Meixi to quickly bring it to the back. Make room for people in line.

The Spring Festival has passed, and there are not many people buying meat. There is only an aunt in her 60s or [-]s standing behind Bai Meixi. Bai Meixi obediently makes way for her, but the aunt does not go towards the meat stall. Instead, she tugged on Bai Meixi's sleeve.

Bai Meixi knew that she must have something good in her hand, so she followed her to a small alley. Sure enough, the aunt had a large stack of meat tickets in her arms, which could buy at least fifty kilograms of meat.

"Where did you get so many meat tickets? They can't be fake, right?" Bai Meixi was shocked when she saw those meat tickets. Ordinary people can't even get a pound of meat tickets in a month. The meat tickets in this aunt's hand are at least Saved for several years.

"How could it be fake? I gave birth to nine sons, and all nine of my daughters-in-law have jobs. Calculate how many meat coupons you get in a month. These are all saved in daily life, and I just want to make some money during the Chinese New Year. "

When the aunt talked about her nine sons, she looked proud. Now all nine children live in the same yard with her, and all the food is arranged by her. In less than half a year, she has saved so much, all of them are It is the result of her diligence and thrift in managing her family.

"Aunt, why do you have so many houses in your family? With nine sons married, one yard may not be enough for living." Bai Meixi wanted to verify the authenticity of these meat tickets and deliberately talked to the aunt.

Unexpectedly, the aunt snorted lightly and felt that living in the family was not a problem. Her family originally only had three main rooms, but later she built two more in the yard. After her nine sons got married, she added a house in the middle of each room. A wall was built, and now they all live in it. There is still an extra room, and they can even marry another daughter-in-law.

After hearing what she said, Bai Meixi secretly felt aggrieved for her son and daughter-in-law. Being able to save so many meat tickets meant that their family had always been vegetarian. They were probably like He Shaoying, who mixed some tree leaves with salt and it was considered a meal. meal.

And the living conditions are even more worrying. According to the aunt's approach, each house is only five or six square meters at most. After putting down a bed, there is not much room. If a family of three is to live in such conditions, it will definitely be full of contradictions.

"Auntie, I'll give you two cents per kilogram of meat coupons. Sell them all to me." Bai Meixi was inconvenient and didn't want to spend time looking for the black market anymore. It was just right to buy the meat coupons in the hands of this aunt, so she directly The price was not too low and I didn’t want to waste any more words.

"Two cents is not enough, at least [-] cents per pound. It is not easy for me to save so much." When the aunt saw that Bai Meixi was a big customer, she actually started to raise the price. The price increase was even worse than the black market in Puhai. She wanted to use these You can make a lot of money with meat tickets.Bai Meixi was too lazy to argue with her and simply gave up the option of pork. It would be better to buy a few kilograms of pork at such an expensive price than to raise a few pigs. Then the pigs would give birth to pigs and the sheep would give birth to sheep. They would not be short of them in their lives. You can eat meat and make a lot of money from animal husbandry.

She shook her head, turned around and left, leaving the aunt there alone.

"Sister, don't leave. The price is negotiable. Just three cents per pound."

When the aunt saw Bai Meixi planning to leave, she suddenly became anxious. She usually could only sell a pound of meat for [-] cents, and she had to stand in the market for a long time. She just raised the price because she saw Bai Meixi's wealth. She didn't expect to ask for a higher price. It was so cruel that it actually scared people away.

"I don't want to buy it. I still have some relatives in town. I can just go to their house and borrow some. If it doesn't work, I can wait until next month. There's no rush now."

After Bai Meixi saw the aunt taking the initiative to lower the price, she also resorted to playing hard to get. The more she refused, the more sincere the aunt's tone became, and the price dropped again and again.

The aunt pulled Bai Meixi's sleeve and stuffed the meat coupons in her hand into Bai Meixi's arms, "Just as you said, it's two cents a pound. The weather is too cold. I'm old and don't want to be here." Stand outside.”

Aunt Can looked at Bai Meixi with a smile. She had already calculated it. The meat stamps in her hand totaled 53 kilograms. According to Bai Meixi's bid, she could repay 10.6 yuan. This money is enough to buy dozens of kilograms of stick noodles for the whole family. Eat for more than half a month.

"Then it's two cents per catty. This is 10.6 yuan. You can take it." Bai Meixi didn't bid any more. With such an old lady who was stingier than He Shaoying, she didn't want to stay for more than a minute.

After she got the meat ticket, she went to the meat stall. The salesperson looked at her suspiciously, but still took the meat ticket and the money. For them, they looked at the ticket and not the person. As long as they could come up with the meat ticket and money, they would have as much meat as they wanted. All can be sold.

Bai Meixi put the fifty kilograms of meat in the basket and covered it with a piece of black cloth. She transported the meat in the basket back to space like a magic trick, and at the same time, she could hide the several hundred kilograms of vegetables just now. It was just transported away without anyone noticing.

Bai Meixi walked out of the vegetable market and planned to rush back to the Fourth Sister Temple as soon as possible while the sky was bright to connect the wires in the space.

As soon as I walked out of the market, I saw the aunt dragging a bamboo basket out. The basket contained dozens of kilograms of stick noodles and most of the basket of wild vegetables. It was sold by an old woman. A large basket of vegetables only cost one yuan.

After Bai Meixi saw the aunt's food, her whole body trembled. She just hoped that her mother could leave some living expenses for the family and not let her sister-in-law's family and Bai Wenjun fall into this situation.
