The wheat bran was coarse grain, while the black flour and flour were fine grains.
The old lady touched the flour with her hands and found that it was of good quality. She was unable to conceal the smile on her face.
She weighed the three ingredients on her scale, and the wheat bran had already turned from the four jin of food that Zhao Xiangyun had previously left her house to the eight jin.
The same goes for the black face and the flour.
"Feel free to hand over the eggs!" Zhao Xiangyun said.
She wouldn't be able to keep the hard-boiled eggs for more than a few days. There was no need to scam others.
Although she said that, the old granny still gave Zhao Xiangyun a price of four dollars and five kilograms of grain. Twenty two eggs, two kilograms of seven silvers, twelve dollars and one catty.
There were a total of thirty-six grains, seventy-two grains and a total of one hundred and twenty grains.
When the old lady paid, she took out a cloth bag and opened it layer after layer, counting out 120 RMB for each bag.
This amount of money was equivalent to a normal person's salary for several months.
However, there was no other way. People had to eat. They couldn't just stay hungry, right?
Especially right now, even the rural people could not get food.
Some eat, some are thick and some are thin, what else is there to pick and choose?
"Girl, thank you! If … If you still have more food, you can come find me next time. "
the old lady said.
"You still need more food?" Zhao Xiangyun asked.
"That's right, I still have a few children who are not around. They might have money and tickets, but everything in front of me is supplied. Even if they have money and tickets, they have to get up early or else …" The old lady sighed, realizing that she had talked too much with Zhao Xiangyun, she quickly kept quiet.
But he couldn't bear to part with Zhao Xiangyun, who could do long-term business.
She had always felt that people who could raise such a fat child shouldn't be lacking in food.
Especially the child in front of him, a girl.
Everyone was worried about their son, so they let him eat his fill first. This girl could eat so much, so she definitely had some extra food.
Zhao Xiangyun still didn't know what the old lady was thinking, but she felt that the current situation was really serious.
But when she thought about how Chen Wuyue's cupboard only contained enough food for her to eat, she felt uncomfortable.
"Old granny, what are you talking about, I …" I'll come see you in two days! "
Two days was more than enough time to grow more food.
"Good, good!" The old lady said two good words in a row and then said a relatively secluded area. She then took the food she bought and left quickly.
Zhao Xiangyun waited for a while before coming out.
With more than 100 dollars in her pocket, Zhao Xiangyun suddenly had some confidence.
Those who had wanted to buy locks to lock their cabinets were now looking for a place with confidence.
She searched for most of the day before finally finding the county's supply and marketing agency.
Carrying a basket on his back, he entered the supply and marketing agency.
There were not many people in the supply shop, other than Zhao Xiangyun, no one else came in to buy things.
Logically speaking, in this sort of place, if a customer came in, the sales clerk would be very enthusiastic about introducing them.
But that was not the case. When Zhao Xiangyun entered, he discovered that there were several sales clerks at the counter who had ignored him ever since she entered.
One of them was even more arrogant.
A handful of melon seeds clattered on the floor. It seemed that the customers weren't worried at all.
Zhao Xiangyun searched for a long time until she found the location of the daily necessities. After searching for a long time, she finally found two locks.
He happily took it to the counter and asked, "How much is it?"
The sales clerk did not even look at Zhao Xiangyun and extended her hand, "Ticket!"
"What ticket?" Zhao Xiangyun was a little surprised.
"Industrial Voucher, this lock, two cents, and a set of Industrial Voucher!" The sales clerk said impatiently.
"Industrial Voucher?" Zhao Xiangyun thought about the food ticket book that Chen Wuyue had given her.
However, there didn't seem to be any Industrial Voucher inside.
Food tickets, cloth tickets, meat tickets, everything else was gone.
"You dare to take these things without a Industrial Voucher? "You country bumpkin?" The sales clerk's incomparably shrill voice sounded.
After Zhao Xiangyun heard this, she became extremely angry.
What about the country people? The country people didn't eat your family's rice.
"I didn't know that, right? Besides, what can you do if you speak properly? " Zhao Xiangyun said angrily.
The salesperson's attitude worsened, "If you don't buy it, then hurry up and get lost. Is this a place a country bumpkin like you can come to?"
As he scolded her, he pointed to the door and told Zhao Xiangyun to get lost.
The surrounding sales staff all seemed to have heard what the sales clerk said. All of them looked at Zhao Xiangyun with extreme contempt.
They all seemed to be ridiculing Zhao Xiangyun.
Coming out of the county's supply shop, Zhao Xiangyun's face was red from anger.
However, there was nothing she could do.
In this era, the ticket was far more important than she had imagined.
Even a lock would be required a Industrial Voucher.
He estimated that he would need a ticket for other things as well.
However, these things were not easy to obtain.
Just as she was about to leave, Zhao Xiangyun was called out to.
It was a man about forty years old. He was wearing a set of old blue clothes, and his clothes were full of patches.
"Girl, what are you buying? You didn't buy anything, yet you were chased out?"
"I …"
"Don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person!" the man said.
Zhao Xiangyun knew that in this year and year, there were very few crimes.
The main reason was that the punishment was severe, and if he dared to commit any crimes, he would be locked up for at least a few minutes.
In the worst case scenario, he might even be pulled to act as an example. Not only would he lose face, his family would lose face as well.
"Uncle, I want to buy a lock, but I don't have a Industrial Voucher!" Zhao Xiangyun answered truthfully.
"Industrial Voucher? This was something only the employees could do, I heard that every twenty dollars the salary was only given out one Industrial Voucher, the value of the Industrial Voucher could be imagined. But you don't have to buy a supply store for locks. You can go to the junk market, and you don't need a ticket there. "
"The junk market? Uncle, do you know where is the junk market? "
He probably thought that Zhao Xiangyun was pitiful and told the location to Zhao Xiangyun.
Zhao Xiangyun thanked the man gratefully, thought for a while, then reached his hand into the basket as he touched it.
When she came out, she ate one of the two tortillas.
There was only one egg left. After her business with the old lady, she had thrown the tortillas and eggs into the broken bowl, and by now the number of tortillas and eggs had probably increased.
As expected, there were two tortillas and three eggs.
He took out a tortilla and handed it to the man.
Without waiting for the man to react, he quickly left.
The cake made from the mixture of corn and flour gave off an alluring fragrance, causing the man to almost drool.
Ye Zichen didn't have time to look around, so he quickly put the tortilla in his pocket and rushed back home.
This was fine grain, and even if they bought it from outside, they might not be able to get it.
If he brought it back, he would be able to have a full meal with a large family.
Zhao Xiangyun turned around and watched the man leave. She also carried her basket and went to the so-called trash market.
