No? I wish I did. My daughter-in-law is postpartum, and I can’t even get a pig’s trotter.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Comrade, how much is pork per pound now? I mean lard or fat?\" There’s still several thousand pounds of lard in the space. If I could, I’d sell some and clear the inventory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lard? There’s no lean meat, either. If there were, I’d be willing to pay two yuan.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Heh. Comrade, I have a thousand pounds of fat. If you want it, I’ll transfer it to you for two-fifty per pound.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Really?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuanyuan nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Comrade, let’s talk over here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It could definitely sell for three yuan. So, with a thousand pounds, you could earn five hundred yuan. Jiang Hongqi was thrilled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuanyuan followed him, watching as he occasionally looked back to make sure she was still following, genuinely afraid she might not.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They reached a broad path where no one passed by.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Comrade, you’re not pulling my leg, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No. This isn’t something to joke about.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Comrade, I want it, all of it. Just don’t know when you can give it to me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Comrade, I don’t want money, just goldfish, just like exchanging at the bank. Also, if the quality isn’t good, I’m not swapping.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuanyuan simply preferred gold. She felt it was much better than money.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Goldfish for a trade?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, only goldfish. I don’t need anything else.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This left Jiang Hongqi troubled. Assuming it’s eight yuan per tael, it would still need over three hundred taels, which wasn’t anywhere near twenty pounds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were some goldfish at home, but not nearly enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Little comrade, can we negotiate? I really don’t have that much.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuanyuan shook her head. \"I’m just a messenger; they’re insisting on goldfish.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hongqi gritted his teeth. \"Fine, I’ll find a way. Where should we meet?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s meet here again at five in the afternoon. If you have enough goldfish by then, I’ll arrange everything for you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t worry, I’ve seen the fat, it’s snow-white, very good quality.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, no matter what, I’ll be here at five.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuanyuan watched him leave hastily, not returning to sell sweet potato chips, which weren’t the type steamed but the kind that could be ground into sweet potato flour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuanyuan wandered back into the alley. This time she observed those exchanging grain, rich folks by the look of their clothes and faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Little girl, I overheard you have fat to sell. Could you let me have some? I’m not selling; it’s just for home use.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Heh, you heard wrong.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, I didn’t hear wrong. Little comrade, sell me fifty pounds. Name your terms.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That much? How much fat does a pig have?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Little comrade, I know you have it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Exchange for goldfish, one tael for three pounds of fat. Do you want to swap?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Goldfish, right? Fine, I want sixty pounds of fat. I’ll give you twenty taels of goldfish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ll be back in half an hour.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuanyuan smiled and nodded. \"Alright, let’s not do it here, we’ll move to that alley. However, I don’t have scales, sort it yourself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, I’ll handle it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuanyuan continued strolling, seeing everyone trading for grains, wanting good food required money. For ordinary folks without money, filling the belly was still the most practical.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuanyuan also left, assuming she must prepare for the sixty pounds of fat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After half an hour, she saw someone waiting at the designated spot from a hidden place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuanyuan carried a basket over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a word, Yuanyuan set down the basket and accepted the goldfish he handed over. She’d already evaluated them, both the quality and quantity were satisfactory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The person seemed slick, lifting the basket and leaving immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, Yuanyuan had given an extra pound or so.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The transaction went very smoothly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was nearing nightfall, almost five. Yuanyuan stayed put, waiting for Jiang Hongqi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At five to five, Jiang Hongqi arrived. Yuanyuan knew he had a goldfish in his pocket.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hongqi didn’t make a fuss, meeting up directly, \"Comrade, check the quality, is it good?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuanyuan nodded, \"It’s good. How much fat do you want to trade?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"With this quality goldfish, I have thirty pounds, all to trade for fat.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuanyuan nodded. \"Alright, thirty pounds should get you fifteen hundred thirty-six pounds of fat, but I’ll round it to fifteen hundred forty pounds. Let’s meet here again at eight.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hongqi smiled and nodded. They parted ways.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuanyuan returned to the inn, not going out, planning to sneak out later, making communication easier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So by seven fifty, Yuanyuan wheeled the fat to the meeting place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Hongqi was already waiting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two exchanged goods, the fat moved from Yuanyuan’s wagon to Jiang Hongqi’s vehicle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Neither spoke, each pulling their wagon, going separate ways.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuanyuan felt this was a pleasant surprise. She hadn’t expected to trade for so many goldfish. It seemed the folks really had some good stuff, just they didn’t dare show it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back at the inn, chatting with two attendants, she brought out sweet potato chips and sunflower seeds, both grown herself in the courtyard with seeds given by Hu Chunhua.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xiao Su, weren’t you cold wandering outside all afternoon?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course it was cold. Being cooped up sitting or lying down felt unbearable. Besides, I’m stuck here, might as well use this chance to get familiar with the city.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xiao Su, you really have a good attitude. If I were stranded in an unfamiliar place, I’d be freaking out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three were snacking on sunflower seeds, chatting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xiao Su, how’s your farm doing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you mean by ’good’? I think it’s okay, just exhausting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But so long as the weather holds, work and rewards should balance out. You reap what you sow.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t think I could manage, even imagining it feels tiring.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuanyuan nodded, \"Yes, it’s extremely tiring. Back then, there wasn’t even time to eat.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two girls kept asking Yuanyuan, and the three began discussing autumn harvests.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The harvests are like this, the spring planting is also extremely tiring, needing to weed every day. I got lazy this year, didn’t weed. Actually, this time I’m seeing if I can buy some herbicide.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xiao Su, you’re really amazing, farming so much land on your own. You’re just fourteen, right? That’s incredible.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1066,"2026-06-06T00:15:23.043Z",1,"novelbin.me","56bba7b7846cac0cd7a37d2bdb27be2a3f59de4be2602ee2361ff1633c0c5dd4","reborn-with-a-space-building-a-fortune-amidst-fa-chapter-240","reborn-with-a-space-building-a-fortune-amidst-fa-chapter-238",1428,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Freborn-with-a-space-building-a-fortune-amidst-fa-cover.jpg"]
