There are still more than a hundred Japanese melons, and Su Yuanyuan plans to sell them all. The fifty stored in the cellar are enough.
It’s almost time to arrive at City J. “Yuanyuan, do we still want to get off the bus here?”
"Of course. Get off here."
Su Yuanyuan is still very confident. She feels that she will definitely gain a lot in J City.
So the two began to pack up. There were not many supplies outside.
After getting off the bus, it was too cold in the middle of the night. The two of them still did not go to the hotel. It was also for safety.
Su Yuanyuan still held the hot water bottle and had hot pads on her feet, so it wasn't too uncomfortable.
At this time, there were only a few people in the waiting hall.
Waiting until dawn, the two of them went outside and saw a shop selling breakfast. There were even fried dough sticks here, so life here must be pretty good.
I spent half a catty of food stamps and one yuan to buy ten fried dough sticks. One bowl of tofu bun per person, and it still tasted really good.
After finishing the meal warmly, the two of them listened and chatted.
They didn't dare to ask, and then the two of them wandered around the city.
Let alone talk about it, life here is pretty good.
Perhaps because it was early, the two of them did not discover that there was any private transaction.
But I know a few factories in the city. There is also an enamel factory, an aluminum lunch box factory, and a steel factory in the city. Otherwise, we wouldn’t be so wealthy.
"If it's nice here, let's stay here a few more days and change some enamel."
"Okay, it's all up to you."
The two of them wandered to the steel factory, and there was really a lot of dust nearby. Su Yuanyuan approached the doorman and found out that the place only got off work as early as six o'clock in the evening. She thought about selling fish here.
"Our fish haven't been frozen yet, right? We'd better come over tomorrow night."
Then the two of them arrived at the enamel factory, where they were preparing to sell meat.
On the train, the two pigs had been cut into strips, which would make it easier to sell. Each pig weighed two pounds, so I thought it would only cost five yuan a piece. It would be faster and save trouble.
We also get off work at 6pm here.
Now that the two of them had time, they went to the building to walk around. They didn't buy anything, mainly because they didn't have the receipts here.
Su Yuanyuan knew that their products were expensive and the reason why some people bought them was because they didn't require tickets.
We had rice at the restaurant at noon. This was quite surprising.
But the two of them just ordered three flatbreads and a bowl of radish vermicelli soup each.
The taste is really good. It once again proves that life here is good.
In the afternoon, the two went to the countryside, found a very remote place, and fished out all the big fish.
If this is frozen, the fish can be sold in front of the steel factory tomorrow night.
The two of them stayed nearby, lit a fire, and sat by the fire. This was more comfortable than being in the waiting hall.
"Shall we two have barbecue? I still have a lot of beef here."
Su Yuanyuan did whatever she thought of. She took out a pan from the space and put butter and chopped beef on it.
The aroma wafted out immediately. Pepper, chili powder, cumin powder, and salt were all sprinkled on top.
Tan Shaoting watched from the side. The tangy fragrance made him greedy.
The two of them had a great time. They were very full.
"Eating this way is really better than other meals."
Su Yuanyuan nodded. In fact, pork can also be eaten this way.
It was not until five o'clock that the fish was frozen. It was more than 40 degrees below zero and could be frozen in an hour.
We put them all away and went back to the city. It was already dark now.
The two of them discussed along the way that they should go to the enamel factory first, mainly because Su Yuanyuan was too obsessed with enamel products.
The two of them arrived at the enamel factory, each carrying a frame. It was full of meat. It was safer this way.
Waiting at the door, the bell rang for get off work, and the door opened ten minutes later.
Su Yuanyuan directly used a wooden stick to hold up a piece of meat. "It costs five yuan and two pounds."
Although it was dark and no one could see clearly what was hanging on the stick, the words "five yuan and two pounds" still attracted many people.
When I got closer, I saw that it was pork.
"This one costs two pounds, five yuan a piece, and there are only a hundred."
The first person who came over directly handed over twenty yuan and said, "Give me four."
Su Yuanyuan smiled and picked up four items and handed them to this person.
The first one buys it, and then many people pay for it.
Su Yuanyuan handed people meat while chatting with them.
"Comrade, I want to buy some enamel, whether it's a tea plate, an enamel basin, a tea jar or whatever. You work in an enamel factory, so you can definitely buy it, right? Can anyone help me buy some?"
"Young girl, you are discerning. In fact, the enamel factory is the safest.
We returned a batch of over 100 enamel basins with lids years ago. If you want them, I can ask you."
"Comrade, is this returned because of quality issues?"
"That's right, except there's a typo in the word "baked."
Su Yuanyuan was relieved now. What kind of quality problem was this?
"Comrade, can you wait for me for a while?"
At this time Tan Shaoting came over and he was responsible for collecting money for the meat.
Su Yuanyuan and the comrade went to the side.
"Comrade, I wonder how much each of these enamel basins costs?"
"They are all 16-inch yellow enamel basins. We ship them for 2.3 yuan. But because they are slightly defective, they cost at least 2 yuan."
Su Yuanyuan nodded. She had bought an enamel basin in her building. The 12-year-old ones cost two and a half dollars each. The 16-year-old ones were much larger than the 12-year-old ones.
"But if you want this batch, my help won't be in vain."
Su Yuanyuan nodded immediately, "Understood, let's do this, I will pay you two yuan and three yuan. As for how much you can get, I have no opinion. Even if you don't spend a penny, that's your ability, I will still give you every penny."
Two yuan and three yuan each.
But I still want tea trays and tea jars. You can get me as many tea trays and tea jars as you can afford. I want no more than a hundred of each."
"I don't have the ability to make one hundred, but it's no problem to get you thirty of each.
The tea tray is one dollar and six, and the teapot is just eight cents."
Su Yuanyuan thought about it and realized it was still cheaper than the one in the building. So she nodded.
"Comrade, when can we get it? We are in a hurry."
"You can just come to me during the day tomorrow. I'm Huang Mingjie from the Supply and Marketing Department."
"Okay, we'll be here at nine o'clock tomorrow morning."
Now Su Yuanyuan was satisfied. She had obtained the enamel she liked, which she could use for herself and sell.
At this time, all the meat in Tan Shaoting's hand was sold out. Those who didn't buy any were very dissatisfied, mainly because they didn't buy one meat per person. The one who bought the most bought ten meats.
The two of them left in a hurry with the baskets on their backs. They stayed at the train station for the night. This time Tan Shaoting took out his own gift and asked Su Yuanyuan to lie down, so that she would not feel too uncomfortable.
