Zhao Xiangyun looked at the old lady in front of him.

This old lady was the same age as her children and grandchildren from her previous life.

But now, someone had come to the black market to stutter. It would be a lie to say that he was not pitiful.

Zhao Xiangyun brought the old lady to a place where there were not many people.

He heard the old lady say, "Originally, I had enough money and food to live on.

However, the children were all out of the country. They all said that there wasn't enough food, so we saved up a few months in succession, took out more than half of it, and sent it out.

He had been hoping that he would receive a full supply of food this month, but who knew that after being told that the supply was short, the 19 kilograms of coarse grain and 1 kilogram of fine grain that he had promised would all turn into coarse grain in an instant.

Even so, due to the shortage of resources, they still had to wait for a few days before being able to supply it! If we wait for a few more days, Old Man and I will starve to death! "

Zhao Xiangyun knew that the people of the city had a country to provide them with food.

It wasn't much. Every month, each person would receive a monthly allowance of 20 jin. The coarse grain was the main ingredient while the fine grain was basically non-existent.

There was indeed a little less, and it was more frugal. He could manage for a month with some rotten vegetables and leaves.

However, if he saved his food and gave it to someone else, not only would he starve to death, he would also starve to death.

"Old granny, I'm willing to make a deal with you!" Zhao Xiangyun said.

Her current food supply was entirely supplied by the precious pots. Furthermore, her family had an extremely good mother who loved her, so her days wouldn't be too difficult.

If he met someone who could help him, he would help him within his capabilities. It would be more like doing good deeds with virtue.

"My daughter, how much food do you have?" the old lady asked.

"15 Jin of coarse grain and 15 Jin of fine grain. If you want them, I'll give them all to you!" Zhao Xiangyun said.

The old lady's eyes immediately went wide.

Thirty catties of grain, more than a month.

The main point was that the fine grains supplied, as well as the ones with shells, did not amount to much after the shells were removed.

"My daughter, can you show me your grain?" the old lady asked in a shaky voice.

"Of course!"

Zhao Xiangyun casually lifted the cloth that was placed on the basket.

The food in there was exactly 15 kilograms.

Just now, when the old lady was speaking, she took advantage of the time to reach into the basket and put in some food to make up for 30 jin of food.

The old lady stared with her eyes wide open.

Fine grain has flour, big white rice.

The coarse grain contains wheat bran and black flour.

However, at this time, the black-faced man had already been placed into the grain.

"How much are you selling these grains for?" the old lady asked excitedly.

"Five yuan for fine grains. If it's coarse grain, you can give three yuan for it!"

It was slightly different from the black market's price, and it was also slightly lower.

However, there was nothing that could be done about it. Zhao Xiangyun rather liked the old lady in front of him.

Besides, she wasn't dressed well, not like a rich person.

"A total of 120 pieces!" the old lady said.

"My daughter, I don't have that much money. I only have 90 yuan. As for the remaining 30 yuan, do you want me to exchange it with something else?"

Zhao Xiangyun didn't take it to heart and immediately nodded, "Alright, as long as it's convenient for you!"

Just as she finished speaking, the old lady took out a cloth bag and handed it over to Zhao Xiangyun. "Count it, here's 90 yuan!"

"As for those that are worth thirty yuan, do you think this is enough?"

The old lady took out another cloth bag. This time, she opened it herself.

Within the cloth bag was a pair of gold bracelets.

The bracelet was inlaid with a ruby. The texture of the ruby was very moist and there was not a single impurity on it. It was obvious that this was not an ordinary object.

"Old granny, you …"

"My daughter, I know, this thing doesn't seem like much now, but after all, I've been wearing it for so many years. If I hadn't lost my appetite, I wouldn't have taken it out!" The old lady said.

Zhao Xiangyun agreed with her words.

This was real gold. No matter how long it took, it would always be valuable items.

Zhao Xiangyun recalled something. In this era, people generally did not treat antiques as antiques.

Good things are destroyed and discarded at will.

Some of the more expensive calligraphy, paintings, and ceramics were treated like trash and wished to shatter into pieces, disappearing from this world without a trace.

In that moment, Zhao Xiangyun suddenly knew what she should do.

Perhaps, she should spend some time to collect these treasures.

In a few decades, the prices of these things will soar and their value will become immeasurable.

"Old granny, how about …" Why don't you save some money and give it to me when you have thirty dollars? "

After Zhao Xiangyun heard the old lady's words, she knew that she really liked this pair of bracelets.

Even though she did want it.

After all, they were two bracelets with gems. Anyone would be tempted by them.

But a gentleman does not take away people's love, this is common sense!

"No need! Even though I was reluctant to part with it, I knew that if I were to place it in my hands, it would turn into a disaster sooner or later. Little girl, I can see that you have quite a good physique. Your family's condition should be good, right? "

In this era where everyone was so thin and yellow in hunger, the little girl in front of him looked so sturdy. Life must have been easy for her.

Life was easy, but some bad things definitely wouldn't happen to them.

When it came to her figure, other than feeling helpless, Zhao Xiangyun could only feel helpless.

She didn't want to be so fat either. Who told the original owner to be so gluttonous?

All the good stuff had gone into her stomach, how could she not be a fatty?

"Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore!" This pair of bracelets is for you! " the old lady said.

As he said that, he passed the bracelet along with the cloth to Zhao Xiangyun.

Zhao Xiangyun finally accepted it.

"My daughter, do you still have any food left?" the old lady asked.

There weren't many grains everywhere.

She and the old man were getting on in years. If they had those things, they could be exchanged for some grains.

It was enough to eat some and send some to the children.

In any case, those were just worldly possessions. They would never be brought back, nor would they ever be brought back.

"Old granny …"

"If there is, I will use something to exchange with you!" the old lady said.

"Alright, see if you have time. We'll meet here!" Zhao Xiangyun said.

"Is it done the day after tomorrow? I will come back the day after tomorrow! "

She kept the food for herself and the old man, and kept the rest.

If he could get more food next time, he could send it to the children together.

"Sure!"

It didn't matter if Zhao Xiangyun did the work of Production Team anymore.

And now that she had a goal, she wanted to collect antiques that others didn't treasure and see if there was anything of value.

In any case, she had the space now. If she put something into the space, no one would know.
