Chapter 12

The receiver watched Wang An place the fur rolled into barrels on the counter.

He said with a smile: "Is the little brother planning to sell the fur to marry a wife?"

The "performance" of Wang An and Mu Xueqing just now was seen by everyone in the supply and marketing cooperative.

Wang An wasn't embarrassed when he heard this, and replied with a smile: "Yeah, big brother has good eyes. Then big brother, since I'm marrying a wife, you have to help me and give these skins a good grade."

The receiver opened the thin hemp rope on the fur roll while stacking them together one by one.

Then he laughed loudly: "Easy to say, easy to say, that's not a problem."

The receiver picked up a pen, picked up a ruler, measured the lynx skin and said: "The base price of this skin is 600, the length is one inch larger than the base size, count it as superior, I'll give you 630, how about it?"

"Okay, big brother, the younger brother trusts you, you just handle it, no need to say so detailed, just say how much money."

In this era, counting too much is useless, love to buy or not, also love to sell or not.

In the Northeast, although it is rare to see slogans like "No beating customers without reason" on the wall, the receiver is not used to customers either.

A price list was posted on the counter facing the customer, and Wang An had basically memorized it after reading it several times.

"That works, little brother is a straightforward person. Hahaha."

Then the process accelerated a lot.

"Large skin (sable) 370," the base price on the price list was 350 yuan.

"Fox skin 60, fox skin 60, fire fox skin 80," price list 60 yuan.

"Four complete weasel skins total 32, two damaged ones total 9 yuan," price list 8 yuan.

"Nine complete gray squirrel skins 18, four damaged ones 4 yuan," price list 2 yuan.

After waiting for a while, the receiver calculated the account with an abacus and handed Wang An a slip of paper: "Little brother, total 1263 yuan, you take the slip to the financial area in the middle to get the money."

Wang An took the slip and smiled: "Alright, thank you big brother." The receiver didn't speak, waved his hand.

Wang An led Mu Xueqing to the medicinal material counter and placed the two bear gallbladders on the counter. The receiver was very silent, looking at the quality of the two bear gallbladders separately.

He picked up the scale (a special scale for precious items like gold, silver, and ginseng in the early days, equivalent to a balance scale) and weighed them separately.

He reported the price directly: "Grass gall 210, iron gall 315, total 525."

Wang An replied directly: "That works, open the slip."

The receiver handed Wang An a slip of paper very quickly.

Arriving at the hardware area, in this era, the supply and marketing cooperative sells guns and also collects guns, but only collects long guns, because the country encourages hunting.

Wang An placed the three guns of the three animals on the counter. The salesperson looked a bit surprised, but didn't say anything, but carefully checked the parts and accessories of each gun one by one.

At this time, Wang An carefully read the sales price list posted in front of the counter, had a rough understanding of the prices of various guns, and remembered the prices of these guns he had.

A brand new Type 56 is 1150 yuan, an old one is 950.

A brand new double-barrel shotgun is 550, an old one is 400.

A brand new single-barrel shotgun is 280, an old one is 180.

An old Mosin-Nagant is 650.

He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, guns are never cheap at any time.

After a long while, the salesperson finished checking and said: "Single-barrel shotgun 120, double-barrel shotgun 270, Mosin-Nagant 300."

Wang An nodded when he heard the first two, but when he heard 300 for the Mosin-Nagant, Wang An couldn't help but say: "Comrade, why is this Mosin-Nagant so different?"

The salesperson said expressionlessly: "This gun is this acquisition price."

Wang An was conflicted. Selling it would be too much of a loss, and keeping it would be useless.

Wang An was conflicted when he felt someone pull his clothes. Looking back,

He saw Mu Xueqing say to him: "How about not selling this gun first, keep it for backup."

Wang An immediately agreed and said to the salesperson: "This Mosin-Nagant is not for sale, open the slip for the other two."

Taking the slip, leading Mu Xueqing to the financial area, taking 2178 yuan, two full stacks of "big unity" and scattered "big unity," a huge sum of money,

Wang An felt that a happy life had begun, more than two thousand yuan, it really sold for a lot.

He whispered to Mu Xueqing: "Xueqing, why don't you seem surprised at all?"

Mu Xueqing asked back without thinking: "Didn't you say you were following an old hunter to hunt in the mountains? Didn't you say you were also very fierce?"

"Did I say that?" Wang An couldn't help but ask himself.

Mainly because it had been too long, he had no impression of the words he said and the bragging he did when he was young in his past life.

He could only respond vaguely, and then asked: "What's going on with your mother? Why did she agree to our business all of a sudden?"

Mu Xueqing blinked her beautiful big eyes: "I told my mother about you long ago. If you hadn't kept not coming, none of these things would have happened. By the way, if we hadn't met today, when were you planning to go to my house?"

Wang An's brain ran wildly. He couldn't say that I had already been reborn, and the bragging and heroic words I said in my past life were all forgotten, and I didn't intend to go to your house to propose in my past or present life.

Oh my god, this is going to kill me.

His heart was panicked, but there was no change in his expression on his face: "I planned to sell some things and save some money, then go to your house. It would be tomorrow or the day after."

"Humph, the matchmaker said that Zheng Fei has been urging, either pay back the money or get married, I was about to die of anxiety, why didn't you beat Zheng Fei to death at the beginning, so annoying." Mu Xueqing frowned and seemed very unhappy.

Wang An said awkwardly: "Uh...... beating him up is fine, but if you really want to beat him to death, isn't it a bit not worth it."

Actually, Wang An was embarrassed because, in his past life, Mu Xueqing was forced to marry Zheng Fei like this, but the reason was his own inaction.

Hey, thinking of himself in his past life, still "heartbroken," still "helpless," still "listless," he really wanted to vomit from disgust at himself!

"Hehehe... why are you so serious? Can I let you kill someone? Are you done? Shall we go?" Mu Xueqing became happy again.

"Wait, with money, is it my character not to spend some? Let's go, let's buy something delicious." Wang An led Mu Xueqing to the non-staple food area happily.

Wang An whispered to Mu Xueqing: "After solving your matter, we will get married, and we will build a new house next spring."

Mu Xueqing blushed and just gave a light "humph."

Because many things require coupons, there isn't much that can be bought.

Canned food doesn't require coupons, 1.45 yuan a bottle, an absolute luxury in this era, get a box, 12 bottles 17.4 yuan.

Malted milk extract doesn't require coupons, 2.85 yuan a can, the aristocrat among luxury goods, get a box, 12 cans 34.2 yuan.

Soda doesn't require coupons, 2 mao a bottle, bottle deposit 5 cents, get two bundles (tied with thin hemp rope, specifically checked) 24 bottles 6 yuan.

Biscuits require coupons, 6 mao a jin with coupons, 9 mao a jin without coupons, fine grain coupons can be used instead of biscuit coupons. Wang An naturally couldn't bear it, get 10 jin for 9 yuan.

All sugars require coupons, they won't sell to you without coupons.

"Gotta find a place to buy some coupons, otherwise it's too damn difficult to want to eat something." Wang An pondered silently.

15 jin of fine grain, get 10 jin of refined white flour, 5 jin of rice, white flour 1 mao 8 a jin, rice 2 mao 2 a jin, not bad, buying rice and flour will give a small flour bag, and spent another 1 mao to buy two flour bags, otherwise they couldn't be separated later.

Done, the rest of the things, can only look.

Thinking about it, let's go, greeted Mu Xueqing, and the two walked out of the supply and marketing cooperative.
