Chapter 28 Trading
"What dried fruit?"

The old grandma was a little moved, and she quietly lowered her voice and walked towards Gu Sheng. She couldn't find the fruit candy her grandson wanted, and she planned to look for it elsewhere.

The so-called other places are dark markets that are held privately.

"Comrade, try it first. It tastes good. If it wasn't for the lack of food at home, I wouldn't exchange it for food."

As Gu Sheng spoke, he took out a piece of dried bayberry, which was coated with white sugar, and it looked like a good thing.

The old grandma's eyes lit up, and the next second she looked at Gu Sheng vigilantly.

"We don't have this thing here, do we?"

She was a little worried that someone else was setting her up. If she got caught, she would be arrested and have her head shaved.

Gu Sheng lowered his voice and explained to her in a low voice, "It was sent to me by my aunt who married far away.

It's a pity that our family is poor and can't afford this precious thing, so we wanted to exchange it for some money. "

Well, this excuse is actually not very good, but the old lady in front of me believed it.

She took the dried red bayberry from Gu Sheng's hand and put it in her mouth, ouch, it tastes better than fruit candy, my grandson must like it.

She suppressed the joy in her heart, and asked calmly, "How do you plan to exchange food?"

"Comrade, my dried red bayberry tastes better than the fruit candy from the supply and marketing cooperative. One piece costs two to one catty. You can compare it with grain and just exchange it for me."

If the fruit candy of the supply and marketing cooperative is sold by the catty, it will cost more than one catty. Most people are reluctant to buy it, so they sell it by the candy.

The old lady's family should be good, she patted her thigh, "Success, wait for me, I'll go back to carry food now, don't wander around."

She ran back to her home, not too far away, but she didn't see the woman when she came back.

Still wondering if she was taken away, the old lady sighed in place, and then Gu Sheng quietly walked out from another alley.

"I'm sorry, comrade, I just went to a relative's house to have a rest."

It's no wonder that Gu Sheng was careful, if he was caught these days, the consequences would be very serious.

The old lady obviously knew it too, so she didn't blame Gu Sheng, but handed a cloth bag to Gu Sheng instead.

"Check it out. There are two catties of flour and nine catties of coarse grains in it, which should be about the same."

These days, sugar is a precious thing, if it weren't for the good condition of the grandmother's family, she would not be willing to buy it.

After checking it, Gu Sheng put the cloth bag into the basket, and then weighed a catty of dried red bayberry for the grandmother.

By the way, let the old lady taste the bamboo shoots that she fried, "Comrade, these are the bamboo shoots I fried, you should try it first."

She took one with chopsticks and fed it. The old lady frowned slightly, rejecting it in her heart, but she didn't take Gu Sheng's face off.

Unexpectedly, his eyes lit up in the next second, "Your craftsmanship is good, this thing is very good for dinner."

"Comrade, I'll give you a bowl, can you help me ask if any neighbors in your family want dried bayberry and bamboo shoots.

I still have two catties of dried bayberry and five catties of bamboo shoots left here. If they want it, they can exchange it for food as you did just now. I will wait for you here. Bamboo shoots are worthless, five cents a bowl. "

Gu Sheng didn't want to find buyers one by one, it would be too risky, the old grandma just bought something here, she can trust her.

"Success, wait a minute."

Food is expensive these days, no matter how rich the grandma is, she will be happy to get a bowl of food.

She wobbled back with dried bayberries and a bowl of bamboo shoots.

Gu Sheng had already ran to a corner and waited, and after a while, he saw the old lady walking over with five or six aunts.

They should all be trusted by the grandmother, and the family conditions seem to be good.
