Chapter 639 What a familiar number (2)

One pound of bacon is exchanged for six pounds of fine grains. If you don’t have fine grains, you will be given money. A national food stamp can be sold for four yuan on the black market. You have to take the food stamps to the grain store to exchange for grains. Seeing that it is not easy for people to travel across mountains and rivers, they Just give it a discount and sell it for three yuan a pound, and so on.

Shuyue looked at the sky speechlessly.

“Then how much did you buy?”

Bai Hengyu smiled, “It’s all spent.”

Earlier, Bai Hengyu was going to buy grain, and Shu Yue gave him all she earned today.

Bai Hengyu lowered his voice, "One pound of millet, five pounds of white rice, three pounds of white flour, four pounds of cornmeal, and half a pound each of red beans, mung beans, peanuts, and soybeans. A total of fifteen pounds of these are considered fine grains, and they cost forty-five yuan."

In addition, there were eight kilograms of sweet potatoes and three kilograms of chestnuts, which cost six yuan.

With nine yuan left, I exchanged some potatoes, cabbage, radish, vermicelli noodles, eggs with salted duck eggs and other items. "

Bai Hengyu paused here and his face turned ugly for a moment, "I originally wanted to change to some bacon. How do you think the bacon is sold?"

Shu Yue: “…”

! !

You have asked this, what can she say?

"eighteen?"

Bai Hengyu nodded with a straight face.

It was so exciting when they slaughtered the grandsons of the Feng family. One pound of bacon was exchanged for six pounds of grain. If you didn’t bring any grain, just use money to exchange it. It doesn’t matter if you don’t have meat coupons. Let’s go for the black market price!

In the end, a pound of bacon was sold for 18 yuan. Their family was so happy when they received the money.

But now...

This is retribution coming!

 Shu Yue Bai Hengyu expressed deep sadness, but there is nothing that can be done about sadness. It is the uncle who makes the rules. Whoever has the goods decides the rules. Now someone else is the uncle. Who made you want to buy it?

Shu Yue thought for a while and comforted, "It's okay, the money is not ours. If you don't feel bad about spending it, the food will be considered free money."

Bai Hengyu nodded with a sullen face.

Shu Yueba counted with her fingers. They now have a total of twenty-one kilograms of fine grains, eight kilograms of sweet potatoes, three kilograms of chestnuts, one kilogram of vermicelli, and various vegetables that can be stored for a long time.

According to the food intake and eating habits of Shu Yue and Bai Hengyu…

In fact, they generally eat fine grains as their staple food, and the other items are either vegetables or snacks. In this case, you can roughly estimate how long they can eat just by looking at the staple food, which is barely twenty days.

If they hunt and catch fish, they will be able to eat well in these twenty days.

Then there are ten days left…

“Yuyu, I’m afraid we’ll have to come out and do it again tomorrow.”

Shu Yue’s eyes were shining.

staple food, that is, fine grains, how can I stock up on enough for thirty days?

There is still ten pounds left.

Bai Hengyu nodded in agreement. When he thought of something, he took Shu Yue into the forest, "Let's go check out the traps to see if any of them have caught pheasants and rabbits. Maybe we can get a bargain."

Shu Yue: “…”

Shu Yue was stunned.

This is what I just remembered.

That’s right, there are so many traps everywhere in the valley, and there are also animal traps in them. It’s not just people who are unlucky if they fall. If a little cute one falls, it will still be a meal.

However, the ideal is very full and the reality is very skinny.

Shu Yue followed Bai Hengyu and walked through the traps they walked through during the day. In several traps, chicken feathers were found but no chickens were found.

The two of them looked at each other and walked back silently for a long time without saying anything about finding a trap.

What are you looking for?

What should I not understand when I see so many chicken feathers? It is true that there are chickens, but it is also true that the chickens have been picked up by others.
