Chapter 86 Small Profits

Hearing the cotton, the black market boss immediately sat up and said in a surprised voice, "Is this serious?"

If we thought we could cooperate just now, now we must cooperate.

In winter, cotton is in short supply no matter where it is, especially in the Northeast and the Black Province.

Everyone can get cotton coupons. If you want to make clothes for your family, you have to save for a long time, and you may not be able to save enough.

On the black market, cotton can be sold in seconds.

Zhao Wanqing nodded calmly, "Seriously."

Wen Xin was a little surprised. She didn't expect that these words would be said in front of her, but she was in someone else's territory, so she suppressed her inner curiosity.

Zhao Wanqing also thought carefully about this decision.

The cotton she had planted in the space is now in full bloom. Because the space is very suitable for crop growth and there is spiritual spring water, the cotton yield is very high.

In addition to the amount of cotton left for his parents, Grandpa Huo and Grandma Huo, for himself, for Wen Xin, and for Yingying and Sister Yumei to sell to them if they need it, there is still a lot left.

I happened to come to the black market today. If people can cooperate, this problem will be solved.

Zhao Wanqing believed that since Wen Xin brought her here, her safety would be guaranteed. Moreover, Wen Xin also proposed to trade grain, so she would not worry anymore.

The black market boss, who knew nothing about the two men's thoughts, could not care about anything else and was only filled with joy.

"No problem. We accept all these wild products, grain, meat, and cotton. The price will definitely not make you suffer."

The two nodded at the same time and agreed to the transaction.

"Okay. Then we will trade in the grove in the west of the city at three o'clock tomorrow morning. Pay with one hand and deliver with the other."

"Okay, no problem." The black market boss readily agreed.

Because both parties are willing to cooperate, it is easier to negotiate on price.

After the negotiation was concluded, the black market boss happily sent the two of them out.

Back in the house, a younger brother asked, "Boss, do you want to follow?"

The black market boss shook his head, picked up his tea cup and took a sip of water, "No need to follow. People who can get food and cotton must have a lot of power behind them. We are just doing business with them, there is no need to get to the bottom of it."

The younger brother nodded and said no more.

The black market boss was thinking, where did this person come from? He was so wealthy when he sold such good goods. But he doesn't want to get involved in too many things. He just wants to focus on making money to support his family.

Thinking of his frail and sick sister at home, he lowered his eyes, hiding the heartache and struggle behind them.

Wen Xin, who was walking out over there, pulled Zhao Wanqing along as she walked out of the alley. As she walked, she paid attention to whether there was anyone following her. After walking far away, she stopped and rested for a while.

Zhao Wanqing stood there, panting, "Xinxin, what's wrong?"

Wen Xin was still looking around cautiously, "I'm afraid that person will let others follow us."

Zhao Wanqing was a little confused and looked around, "Ah? What should we do?"

Wen Xin stretched out her index finger and poked Zhao Wanqing's forehead, "Don't worry, no one is following you. Are you really big-hearted? Do you trust me so much?"

Zhao Wanqing smiled naively, "Of course I believe you. Xinxin, don't worry, I will contract your winter cotton."

As he spoke, he patted his chest and promised.

Wen Xin was a little speechless and funny, but also felt very heartwarming.

"Okay, thank you very much for our Wanqing. Remember to protect yourself."

Hearing Wen Xin's reminder, Zhao Wanqing smiled even bigger and kept nodding.

In fact, Zhao Wanqing understood that if Wen Xin got to the bottom of it, she would not be able to explain the matter. But Wen Xin respected her secret very much. She didn't ask anything and just asked her to protect herself.

Wen Xin usually leaves a portion of whatever delicious food she has for Zhao Wanqing.

Zhao Wanqing cherishes this affection very much.

Although both of them have secrets, they have the same good intentions for each other. Zhao Wanqing is not afraid of exposing herself in front of Wen Xin, because Wen Xin will definitely keep her secret.

This was the confidence Wen Xin gave her.

After returning to the post office to meet up, the two told Zhang Yingying and Wang Yumei the good news.

They are also very happy.

I found a lot of them this time, and I can get a lot of money from selling them.

Because they were happy, the four of them planned to go to a state-owned restaurant to eat something delicious.

After I went there, there were not many people.

They looked at the menu and ordered a spicy fish, a local three delicacies, a pickled cabbage powder, and rice.

After the food was ready, no one bothered to talk, they were all busy eating.

After eating and drinking, they had time to chat.

"Thank you both for this. Otherwise we would have to go to the purchasing station, and the difference would be huge." Wang Yumei picked up the water glass and said solemnly.

Zhang Yingying also followed suit, "Yes. It's thanks to you that I can find so many. Don't worry, if you tell me anything in the future, I will never refuse."

Wen Xin and Zhao Wanqing both picked up the water glasses, "We are all educated youths and we came here together. We should help each other and we are all friends."

The four of them looked at each other, smiled, and clinked glasses.

After returning home, they decided to pack everything now because they had to deliver the goods in the early morning.

Remember the portion sizes for each person and put each type together for easy delivery.

Wang Yumei was a little worried, "How about I go with you. Can you move it?"

Looking at the piles of goods in front of her, Wen Xin was also a little dumbfounded.

If she were herself, she could put the things in the space and take them there, but she wasn't the only one!

"Okay. We agreed at three o'clock, so let's go there earlier." Wen Xin said.

The other three people also nodded.

Two pallets were borrowed in advance, and a few people moved things at a snail's pace, dragging them there.

After arriving at the place, I was really exhausted.

Zhang Yingying sat down on the ground, "I can't do it anymore, I'm so tired."

Wang Yumei was also so tired that she could hardly lift her arms.

Wen Xin and Zhao Wanqing also sat on the ground to rest, gasping for air.

"Yingying, Sister Yumei, we will guard here. You go back and guard the backyard first. I don't worry if there is no one there." Wen Xin calmed down and discussed.

Zhang Yingying and Wang Yumei nodded in agreement.

Although there is a high probability that it will end soon, the fact that there is no one in the backyard of the educated youth is really worrying, for fear that the previous incident will come back again.

After the others left, Wen Xin said to Zhao Wanqing, "Wanqing, please stay here and see if you know how to do it. I'll see if the food is there."

Zhao Wanqing was still confused, "What kind of food?"

"Didn't I say there would be a grain trade when we were talking before? In fact, I have a relative who works as a driver and travels long distances to other places, so he brought me to make money together." Wen Xin explained patiently.

Wen Xin found this explanation as to why she had a supply of goods.
