Chapter 78 Jiang Wan buys a pig head
·
Jiu Yang Zhu Zhu
From Jiang Wan's point of view, the manuscripts were submitted together. Since one has received a reply, the rest will probably be soon.
However, there was no news after that.
When there were still ten days left before the appointment with Tan Long, Jiang Wan received three rejection letters.
It was from the newspaper office. Without saying a word, he put a blue stamp on the letter paper saying that he would not be hired.
Jiang Wan sighed softly, it seemed that the rest were not very optimistic.
If you want to pay back the royalties, you will probably be in trouble.
At this moment, she only has 20 yuan in her hand.
Jiang Wan hesitated for a day, and finally decided to stick to the original plan. She could buy a pig's head and an elbow for 20 yuan.
When Qiao Liancheng came back that night, Jiang Wan proposed to go into the city.
"What are you doing in the city?" Qiao Liancheng was puzzled.
Jiang Wan said: "I need some medicinal materials, which are not available here."
Qiao Liancheng was silent: "Tell me what you need and I'll get it for you."
Jiang Wan hesitated, mainly because she wanted to go to the city to see what else could be sold, in case there was any way to make money!
Qiao Liancheng saw that she seemed reluctant, so he didn't force it:
"You have to get up early when you go into the city. You can catch the bus at the door. The fare is [-] cents and the journey takes about two hours."
"The last bus back from the city is at five o'clock in the evening. Remember to take the time, otherwise you won't be able to come back."
Jiang Wan bit her lip and asked, "You said you could get it for me, how?"
Qiao Liancheng said: "The army cooks have to go to the city once a week to purchase. Whatever you need, I will ask them to help bring it back. I am familiar with the person in charge of purchasing."
Jiang Wan breathed a sigh of relief and turned to write the names of the medicinal materials.
She was not familiar with the city and didn't know where to buy it, so she had better calm down and make money first for the time being.
Qiao Liancheng took the list away politely.
The next day happened to be the day for shopping. When Qiao Liancheng came back in the evening, he had bought everything.
"It cost a total of one yuan and two, and I paid it to you. It will be deducted from your salary!"
Qiao Liancheng didn't know what Jiang Wan was doing. He had never heard of these medicines, such as cinnamon, star anise, cardamom, and cumin!
Is it possible that Jiang Wan still sees a doctor?
Jiang Wan did not explain and went to the town the next day.
First, he took out his royalties, and then went to find a butcher.
What she didn't expect was that the pigs' heads and intestines required reservations.
"This thing is worthless, and everyone in the village is leaving." said the butcher.
Jiang Wan asked in surprise: "Don't you want to spend money?"
The butcher shook his head: "It costs money. The pig head can be sold for two or three yuan, and the remaining lungs, intestines and other things can be sold for a few cents."
Jiang Wan's eyes lit up: "Give these to me. I can pay more. Whoever you sell to is not selling!"
The butcher thought it made sense, and the two agreed to trade again the next day.
The next day, Jiang Wan finally bought a pig head, pig intestines, a pig knuckle, and a pair of pig livers.
The others were still not caught and were taken away by others.
Jiang Wan carried these back alone. Everything else was easy to say, but the pig's head was too big.
The pigs at this time had been raised for several months, and a pig head weighed dozens of kilograms.
Jiang Wan simply put the sack on her shoulders and carried it back to the compound.
When Qiao Liancheng went home at night, he went with Jiang Cheng.
Before arriving at the family compound, I smelled a strong aroma of meat.
"Who is stewing meat? It smells pretty good!" Jiang Cheng sniffed and said.
However, there was no news after that.
