Chapter 9
There is absolutely no way to do it; things that are useless or temporarily unused are idle in your hands, and things you want or need are idle in others' hands!
Isn't this damn uncomfortable? Who wouldn't be uncomfortable?
People have to live!
People have to have various needs to live; now the materials are so scarce and the management is too strict, the result is that the crime rate is rising linearly!
When Wang An arrived at the market, it was already nearly 10 o'clock; after tying up the mule, he didn't unload the roe deer and started shouting.
"Live roe deer, live roe deer!... Anyone want a live roe deer!"
Although there were many people in the whole market, there was really no one shouting to sell things; they were all trading with normal voices; Wang An shouted like this, directly attracting the eyes of most people.
"How much is roe deer meat per jin?" a woman asked; everyone lacks meat in this era, no matter what meat it is.
Just now when passing by other stalls, Wang An roughly understood; wild boar meat and bear meat are basically 3 to 3.5 cents per jin, pheasants over four jin are 2 yuan each, about 3 jin are 1.5 yuan each, silly half-jin (silly half-chicken) is 5 cents each, jumping cat is 4 cents per jin. There are also those selling flying dragons (hazel grouse), one at most about half a jin can be worth 5 yuan! Good things are valuable no matter when!
Wang An didn't have a scale either; borrowed the scale from the old man selling tobacco leaves next to him, weighed a few pieces of roe deer meat, basically all about two jin and one or two liang!
"Three cents a jin, a piece of meat is two jin and one or two liang, count it as six cents!" Wang An said quickly.
After finishing, continued to shout: "Live roe deer, roe deer meat, pheasants are all sold, give money and I'll sell!"
That woman picked a big piece after looking for a long time, handed Wang An 6 cents, Wang An shouted loudly: "Big sister, take the meat, the meat is good, the quantity is sufficient, and it's cheap! Everyone buy quickly! Once sold, it's gone!"
Wang An's mouth kept shouting, other stall owners were looking at him and laughing, like looking at a joke!
Wang An didn't care how they looked at him, whatever!
At this time, a young man wearing glasses came, wearing black leather shoes, woolen gloves on his hands, a Zhongshan suit, a military green coat outside, a military green cotton hat on his head, and a gray scarf around his neck; he seemed to be working in some unit, riding a Phoenix big 28, feeling quite stylish! And quite rich!
"Hmm, the live roe deer has a market!" Wang An thought secretly.
"Old fellow, how do you sell this live roe deer?" As he spoke, he pointed to the roe deer on the cart.
Roughly calculated in his heart, asking for a bit more is definitely no problem! It's not like you can't bargain!
"Sell for 30 yuan, cheap, this thing is hard to hit when dead and not expensive, but it's really hard to catch when alive!" Put on a face that you picked up a big bargain.
Didn't expect this young man not to bargain at all, directly took out 3 big group photos (10-yuan notes) and handed them to Wang An.
Wang An was stunned, the old man selling tobacco leaves was stunned, the stall owners next to him and the onlookers were all stunned!
In this era, the wages of ordinary government employees and formal forest farm workers are 37.5 yuan per month, and temporary workers are 17.5 yuan, so 30 yuan is quite a lot for ordinary people!
Roe deer meat is 3 cents per jin, a 60-plus jin roe deer can produce 30 jin of meat, which is very powerful! Plus the roe deer skin, roe deer skin is not valuable, only worth 1 yuan, roe deer whip can be worth two or three yuan. A roe deer added together is at most 13 yuan!!
30 yuan actually closed the deal! Wow!
Wang An was stunned for a moment and immediately reacted; there are many people who don't lack money in any era!
Took the three big group photos handed over and put them into his pocket, Wang An immediately smiled: "Should I send it to your house, or kill it now and divide it for you to take?"
"You just help me tie it to the back seat!" This young man also seemed very happy!
"Alright," Wang An said casually.
Then behind the stall, don't know whose branch pile it was, pulled out three tree sticks about four fingers thick, left about 1 meter long, broke them directly, and threw the unwanted ones back into the branch pile!
Took three sticks and tied them horizontally on the back seat of the bicycle with thin hemp rope, then put the roe deer on it! Then simple binding, the 30-yuan transaction was done!
The young man didn't even turn his head, rode the bicycle and left.
Actually, you can put the roe deer on the back seat of the bicycle without sticks; Wang An was just worried that this roe deer would die, after all, he sold it for 30 yuan!
"Pheasants, pheasants, only 1 left, deal for two yuan," hearing this, and seeing the pheasant that hadn't been sold until now, the old man selling tobacco leaves next to him shook his head.
Shouted for a long time, the roe deer still had 9 pieces of meat left unsold! And the pheasant wasn't sold either! The consumption ability of ordinary people in this era is really average.
An hour later, an old lady spent one yuan and nine cents to buy the pheasant from Wang An; when he came, there were 13 pieces of meat in total, and 7 pieces were left unsold! Looked at the sack on the cart, there was still a pile of things!
Gritted his teeth, Wang An shouted: "5 cents! 2 jin 2 liang of meat for 5 cents, hurry up, hurry up! Once sold, I'm going home, 5 cents!"
This shout was not in vain; many who were watching before took out money one after another, and sold four more pieces. Then the last three pieces were left unattended!
"Go to hell! Not selling!" Wang An's thought directly turned into action, and there was nothing to clean up; untied the reins and intended to leave, suddenly thought of something.
Turned around and asked the old man selling tobacco leaves: "Old man, I just heard that your tobacco leaves are 2 cents a jin?"
"Yeah, this is roasted tobacco leaves, better to smoke than others, come man, smoke one and taste it!" Saying that, he handed Wang An a torn piece of smoking paper.
Wang An didn't understand this stuff at all; his own old man planted his own tobacco leaves! Wang An now smokes cigarettes, and one box is enough to smoke for half a month!
Wang An said: "Old man, look at my roe deer meat, isn't it quite good, how about we exchange some?"
The old man was obviously very moved; it's not easy to eat some meat in this era!
"How much is your meat and 6 cents?" the old man asked.
"What six cents, didn't you see I was selling for 5 cents!"
"That works." Saying that, the old man readily weighed 25 jin of tobacco leaves!
Wang An handed the biggest piece of the three pieces of meat to the old man, took the old man's tobacco leaves, good guy, 25 jin of tobacco leaves is really not a small amount, quite a big bundle!
Wang An looked left and right, took the sack that held the pheasants, rolled the tobacco leaves, and threw them on the cart.
Day after day, the big money hasn't arrived yet, and it's been tripped by these small money!
Calculated the account just now, a total of 37.5 and a big bundle of tobacco leaves, and two pieces of meat left! This income is on par with the monthly wages of those formal employees! Although the live roe deer was a bit opportunistic, he caught someone who wanted it! But saying anything else is useless, anyway, the money is in hand! Besides, he only hunted for 2 days! This harvest, satisfied!!
The things of those three animals belong to windfall, not labor income.
Drove the cart straight to the supply and marketing cooperative; not long after leaving the market, Wang An was still calculating the things to sell! At the moment of looking up, he was directly stunned!!
Wang An saw a person! Saw the woman who made him dream about her in his past and present life—Mu Xueqing!
