Chapter 21 This breakfast is really not cheap
Jiang Bo rolled his eyes at him. What could he possibly try on the street?
Just talking useless bullshit.
However, he still played with it in his hands for a while.
The heavy feel is quite good.
General Jiang Bo put his sword back into the sheath and asked:
"How to sell it?"
When he heard Jiang Bo ask this, the tall and thin man knew there was a chance and his eyes lit up.
After thinking for a while, he said:
"That depends on whether you are exchanging or buying."
"If you buy it, it's ten yuan. If you exchange it, it's five kilograms of rice or ten kilograms of corn flour."
Jiang Bo understood that the other party was testing him to see if he could do it.
This is obviously an unreasonable price.
"Man, this is good stuff."
"We spent a lot of effort to get this. It's high-quality stuff."
Jiang Bo opened his sack and showed the contents to the tall and thin man.
"Take this in exchange."
The tall and thin man came forward to take a look.
His eyes lit up, unable to hide the surprise in his heart.
Seeing that there was constant movement in Jiang Bo's sack, he knew there must be a living thing inside, but he thought it was probably a chicken or a duck at most.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a big rabbit weighing four or five kilograms.
Rabbits not only have a high meat yield, but their fur is also a treasure that can be exchanged for other things.
The tall and thin man swallowed and was about to ask Jiang Bo to add another dollar, or two pounds of corn flour.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Bo said.
"You have to find me some vegetables and rice and wheat seeds, then I can trade with you."
In this day and age, it is not easy to get some crop seeds.
You can ask Xu Damao for help.
However, if he could get it done on the black market, he didn't want to ask for a favor.
The tall and thin man originally wanted to bargain.
However, when he saw what Jiang Bo was holding, he hesitated again.
On this street, his family is not the only one to own self-defense equipment like bayonets.
There are several shops at night, and they have similar things.
It’s just that other stalls closed early, so they were able to catch up.
Weapons are good, but food is the hard currency in the current market.
The tall and thin guy has been doing reselling for many years and has many connections.
After getting the big wild rabbit, they could easily sell it for more than ten kilograms of corn flour or flour.
Very profitable!
As for the seeds that Jiang Bogang mentioned, they are also easy to deal with.
The tall and thin man and the people behind him whispered for a while, then came back and said to Jiang Bo:
"Hold on."
After saying that, the tall and thin man walked straight to another stall at the corner.
The stall owner was an old man, curled up against the wall with a cloth bag on his back.
The tall and thin man chatted with the old man for a while, and no one knew what they talked about. Then the old man followed him back.
Walking closer, the tall and thin man said to the old man:
"Take out your goods and show them to this brother."
The old man lowered his head, looked at Jiang Bo timidly, and then looked at the tall and thin man.
He timidly took out a few cloth bags from the bag.
The old man opened them one by one:
"This is rice, this is wheat, and this is corn."
“There’s also sorghum here.”
"This bag contains tomatoes and peppers, this one contains cucumbers, and this one contains squash..."
The old man unfolded the cloth bags one by one.
Jiang Bo was delighted. He didn't expect that the old man had quite a complete set of items in his hands.
With these seeds.
If you plant it in your own portable space, you won’t have to worry about anything.
Jiang Bo nodded.
Seeing Jiang Bo's approval, the tall and thin man immediately said to the old man.
"You're lucky."
"Your goods are wanted."
"Just the price I told you."
The old man looked at Jiang Bo, then at the tall and thin man, and mustered up his courage and said:
"Can you...give me more?"
"It's not easy for me to come to the city. I took advantage of my relative's funeral to secretly bring some seeds out."
"These days, seeds can save lives."
The tall and thin man interrupted him impatiently.
"That thing of yours is a treasure in your commune, but what use can it have in the city?"
"Look, you've been squatting there all night. Did anyone take a look?"
"Either you do what I say, or you pack up and go back home."
……
The old man hesitated with the tall and thin man for a while.
Jiang Bo didn't say anything.
He only traded with the tall and thin man. As for the price the tall and thin man paid for the old man's goods, that was a matter between the two of them.
Jiang Bo wouldn't ask, nor would he care.
"Alright, alright, stop wasting time."
"I'll give you another dime at most."
"Come out if you want to, otherwise get out!"
The old man gritted his teeth, finally nodded, took the money, and gave the seeds and the cloth bag to the tall and thin man.
Jiang Bo handed the hare to the tall and thin man, took the bayonet and seeds, and walked around the "ghost market" again.
By this time, the sky was already bright and the people setting up stalls were gradually preparing to pack up and go back.
Jiang Bo saw that there was nothing else to see, so he prepared to leave.
Jiang Bo walked for a while and felt a little hungry.
"I've been busy all morning, and I don't even know what time it is now."
Since coming to this era, the thing he is most uncomfortable with is being away from his mobile phone.
Apart from anything else, Jiang Bo has become accustomed to checking the time on his mobile phone.
For people here, even watches are rare, let alone mobile phones.
As he traveled through time from the modern times.
Not knowing the time was something he was very uncomfortable with and it felt very inconvenient.
while walking.
Jiang Bo smelled a familiar fragrance.
He looked up and saw a store of neither big nor small with the words "Convenience Canteen" written on it.
There are all kinds of tables, chairs and benches inside. Through the glass window, you can vaguely see freshly steamed buns in the steamer, emitting hot white steam.
Next to it is another store. The door is not open. There is a black plaque on the lintel that reads "Front Door Tavern".
"Why does it feel familiar?"
I was hungry, so I decided to have breakfast here.
Jiang Bo walked in.
At this time, there were already quite a few people sitting in the store eating.
There were two or three people queuing at the window.
Jiang Bo leaned over and glanced out the window.
Wow, there are quite a lot of things.
In addition to steamed buns, there are also fried dough sticks, shredded pickles, and tea eggs.
On the other side, there were two large pots, one of which was filled with tofu pudding, and the other...
“There’s fried liver?!”
However, the pot for stir-fried liver was smaller and not full, only about half full.
Probably because not many people bought it.
“Is it because of the taste?”
Jiang Bo was a little hesitant.
"Never mind, give me a bowl and try it."
Who made him like this?
Soon it was Jiang Bo's turn.
"Two fried dough sticks, one tea egg, and some pickles."
opposite.
She was a middle-aged woman with her hair tied up in a bun, and she was not tall.
She quickly put all these things in place, handed them to Jiang Bo without even looking up, and said:
"Two fried dough sticks cost 1.2 cents, an egg costs 2 cents, and pickles are free."
Oops.
It’s really not cheap.
Considering people's income at that time, this was really not something that ordinary people could afford.
After all, how much does a worker earn a month?
This is all because of the famine.
The original owner's memory told Jiang Bo that these things were less than half the price in the first two years.
But Jiang Bo didn't care too much.
Said:
"Give me another bowl of fried liver."
After hearing this, the middle-aged woman who was carrying breakfast looked up at Jiang Bo.
It didn't matter that she took a look, Jiang Bo suddenly remembered why he felt this store was so familiar just now.
