"Why should they give you the meat stamps in their hands? They don't know how to go to the supply and marketing cooperative with the meat stamps to buy meat?
Also, I’m not stupid. If I give you meat tickets, why do I need to give you cloth?
Do you really think it’s easy to get cloth from textile mills these days?”
Only then did Chu Xiangqian realize that in this era, everyone is in short supply of everything "food, clothing, and clothing." Even cloth is sometimes more rare than meat.
Seeing that Chu Qianqian had come to his senses, Chen Huaili waved his hand like a fly, "Ganggungu, I'm annoyed when I see you."
Chu Qianqian nodded with a smile, remembering that there were 96 pheasants in the warehouse.
"Section Chief, before entering the city, I set more than thirty small traps in the mountains. I was lucky and caught a dozen pheasants. I will give you one as a New Year's gift to you tonight.
If you have a friend who also wants to have some chicken soup, do you think it’s suitable for me to give you 3 yuan for a three-pound meal?”
Chen Huaili was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself that old hens used to cost 1 to 2 yuan each.
When converted, it’s about 4.5 cents per pound.
But now, if you go to several large vegetable markets, let alone go early in the morning, even those who queue up in the early morning may not be able to buy anything.
I heard that the wet market only provides a hundred or so vegetables every day, which is a drop in the bucket for the entire Jiaodaokou street.
Chu Xiangqian asked for 1 yuan per catty. Although it was a bit expensive, it was still easy to sell at the pigeon market.
Thinking of the pigeon market, Chen Huaili hurriedly said, "Go forward, you must never go to the pigeon market. In fact, our street and police station have been secretly watching the two large pigeon markets, Drum Tower and Yonghegong Lama Temple.
The little pigeon market in the area is also within our sight.
Ordinary people can exchange some grain and buy some meat.
Those who ship large quantities of goods have always been the targets of surveillance and crackdowns by the streets, police stations and superiors."
Chu Xiangqian was shocked, and secretly thought that he was lucky enough to be cautious and didn't go to the city to visit the pigeon market.
Not to mention that pheasants and wild boar are not sold in large quantities in the pigeon market.
Chen Huaili saw that he knew how powerful he was, so he felt relieved and whispered, "If you are really short of food, or if your relatives really can't survive, use your brain more, do you understand?"
I understand, what else is there to understand?
If you don’t go to Pigeon Market yourself, just find someone you trust to buy the urgently needed things and come back.
As for wanting to make a fortune from the pigeon market, it is better to wash up and go to bed early.
There is everything in dreams.
After Chu nodded forward, Chen Huaili said with a smile, "If you want to visit the pigeon market, then I will ask Chen Daliang and Fang Xiaosheng to find an opportunity to take you there."
Chu Xiangqian didn't refuse. He went to Pigeon Market on a secret surveillance mission. As long as he didn't buy anything and just went to look at the antiques and touch them, he would be fine.
Even Chu Xiangqian believed that Chen Daliang must be connected with people from Pigeon City.
After leaving the section chief's office, I remembered the purchaser at the textile factory.
It seems that I can get to know a few more buyers in the future.
Every unit with a large number of personnel has a buyer who specializes in buying unplanned materials.
These people not only have tasks and procurement targets, but also have unit leadership guarantees.
Even if you are caught, you will probably throw the things away, or go to the countryside to adjust. Everyone understands what is going on, but no one will hold on to it.
To put it bluntly, the police station may have such buyers.
Although you don’t have to be a full-time buyer, and you don’t have to focus on grain and meat, no one will dislike the chestnuts, mushrooms, fungus and other non-staple foods in the mountains.
Therefore, those buyers are not afraid of inspections in the city. They will send the goods directly to the unit or factory, and no one will ask about the source.
But I'm afraid of encountering someone who is trying to rob me outside the city.
Not only are your things not safe, but your life may be lost.
If you can buy game in the city, I believe that the purchaser will be willing to maintain this relationship.
At noon, I hid on the rooftop of the second-floor office and ate a whole roast chicken that was still hot when I took it out. I then used the fountain water from Novice Village to wash my hands and lips to make sure there was no smell.
Then he casually said hello to Chen Daliang, and took Da Zhuang and Hong Niu out for patrol.
I wanted to go find Xue Jianguo, but when I arrived at the police station, this guy was not there.
Then you can only patrol by yourself.
It took me two and a half hours to walk along several main roads.
When he arrived at Dongbu Yaqiao Alley, he saw many people breaking the ice and fishing on the water of the Yuhe ruins. Chu Xiangqian immediately became interested.
However, those uncles and aunts who are fishing or planning to buy a fish to take home will see him leading two hunting dogs and wearing a khaki army coat.
They dispersed immediately.
Some people even don’t even want fishing tools and the fish they’ve caught.
Only about half of the fishing guys were left on the ice, but their attention was basically all on him.
There were also many people on the shore, pointing at him, and even faintly hearing curses.
Chu Qianqian slapped his forehead, knowing that his sudden appearance had frightened those selling fish or those who wanted to buy fish.
After leading Da Zhuang and Hong Niu away, he suddenly heard someone calling him.
Following the sound, I looked over and saw Liu Guangtian straddling the cloth bag and running over quickly.
"Brother Chu, are you looking for someone? Or are you here to arrest someone?"
Chu Qianqian glanced at Liu Guangtian, and then looked at four or five half-year-old children who were also teenagers not far away.
It was quickly apparent that these boys must have come here to play after school, or drill holes in the ice to fish.
In order to avoid a bigger misunderstanding, Chu Xiangqian simply took Liu Guangtian and walked to several old men.
He saluted and said, "Sir, my name is Chu Xiangqian, a patrolman of the Street Security Department. From now on, starting from 9 am to 1 pm every day, I will patrol along the main road.
Focus on patrolling against petty theft, fights and other illegal activities and violations of policies."
The old men were a little nervous just now, but after hearing what Chu Xiangqian said just now, smiles suddenly appeared on their faces.
An old man who looked like he had been a leader from the look of his clothes smiled and stretched out his hand to shake hands with Chu Qianqian.
"Comrade Chu, thank you for your hard work. We will definitely cooperate with your work in the future."
Chu Qianqian chatted with these people for a few words, and took Liu Guangtian a few steps away.
I heard the mutterings of several old men coming from behind.
"I just said it's okay. You can fish on the other side of the Forbidden City moat, so there will definitely be no problem on our side."
Chu Qianqian pouted, no one really cares about fishing, but selling fish is a problem.
Otherwise, nothing really happened. Why did those people run away when they saw me just now?
Seeing this, the people around them hurriedly gathered around the old men and asked questions.
After hearing that Chu Xiangqian was ignoring him, many people immediately ran back to the ice.
However, many people still packed up their fishing rods and barrels and went home with them.
Chu Xiangqian didn’t explain it either. Anyway, after a long time, everyone knew it.
At worst, I'll bring a fishing rod over tomorrow. Of course, you can't wear a military coat when fishing.
Thinking of this, he looked at Liu Guangtian, who had been following him, and asked, "Do you have any extra fishing rods, lines, or hooks?"
