Reborn in the 70s, emptied the enemy's warehouses and went to the countryside

Chapter 45 Exchange



Next to Huzi stood an old man in his fifties or sixties, with two large bundles of firewood at his feet.

Seeing Xu Lin coming out, both of them smiled ingratiatingly. Xu felt embarrassed, and the old man kept rubbing his hands.

"Sister Xu, this is my grandfather Wang Sanlai. I heard that you can buy malted milk and white rabbit here.

My grandma caught a big white goose and her own wild products for us to come first.

She wants to bring some sauerkraut and sweet potatoes to her. She'll be here soon. Do you think she can do that? "

Huzi put on a pitiful and flattering expression, and the old man nodded beside him and answered with a blushing face.

"Xu Zhiqing, I'm sorry. I also know that I am a little greedy. This is not. Oh, I'm so sorry.

Can you please give it to me evenly? We all remember this great kindness, but the child is really too young and was born prematurely. "

The old man's eyes turned red when he said this. In fact, his family had asked educated youths before, but the good things they had were limited.

This new educated youth is sought after. After all, he is a little guilty and short of breath, and he is trying to force others to do something difficult.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. This is an exchange of equal value. You don't have to feel sorry."

Xu Lin was a little embarrassed because she was not afraid of others being cruel to her, but she was afraid of others asking for her favor in a nice way.

"Then what, come in."

Xu Lin called the two of them to come in quickly, and even stepped forward to take the big white goose from Hu Zi's hand. The big goose was stewed in an iron pot, which is a famous Northeastern dish.

Just thinking about it made Xu Lin salivate in her mouth.

Don't say anything, this big goose must stay.

The old man is an honest man, not very good at talking, but he talks non-stop with a small mouth.

He told Xu Lin what delicious food there was in the mountains, and asked Xu Lin what she liked to eat. When she came back, he came back looking for it.

The little one is so adorable.

Xu Lin tied the big white goose to the woodshed and then said: "Malted milk is a rare commodity, and the supply and marketing cooperatives charge 25 for a jar.

If you go to those places to buy, you will have to pay 40 to [-] yuan to buy a jar. Of course, I buy the goods here from the supply and marketing cooperative.

So I don’t want any more from you. Let’s exchange it according to the supply and marketing cooperative’s price. Do you think that’s okay? "

"Okay, okay, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't be able to buy such expensive things. I want to thank you for my baby."

The old man said that he was about to salute, but Xu Lin was so frightened that she quickly turned around and stopped him.

"Uncle, you are shortening my life. Besides, if word of this spreads, how can I still be a member of the Wangzhuang Brigade?

If it reaches the ideological committee, I can't say. "

Xu Lin gave her a knowing look. The old man's face instantly turned pale with fright, and he quickly stood up straight. It was him who wanted to help.

You can't do anything wrong these days. If you harm your little comrade because of him, then his sin will be great.

The old man didn't know what to say when another shout came from outside the door.

"Xu Zhiqing, are you there?"

Huzi became happy when he heard the shouting and said excitedly: "My grandma is here, my grandma is here."

Xu Lin walked out quickly and saw an old woman with gray hair and wrinkles standing at the door of the courtyard.

"Auntie is here, come in quickly." Xu Lin greeted with a smile, and Huzi and the old man hurried forward to greet her.

The old man quickly took the basket from the old woman's back and held it in his hand.

Although he didn't say a word, his actions silently expressed his concern for the old lady.

Soon the four of them sat down outside. Looking at the clean room, the old woman nodded constantly.

"Hello Xu Zhiqing, I am Huzi's grandma. I am the eldest child. From now on, you can call me Mistress Wang."

"Yes, mistress Wang." Xu Lin shouted with a slight smile. Facing someone weaker than herself, Xu Lin really couldn't stab her.

Hey, Mistress Wang happily agreed and looked at Xu Lin with a gentler look. She just felt that this girl was really beautiful and kind-hearted.

"Xu Zhiqing, you are really a great benefactor to our family. If you have any work in the future, just ask my boss or two to do it."

If they dare to say no, I will slap them, old lady. "

Mistress Wang patted Xu Lin's little hand and said, "You can't do heavy work with your small body, it will affect your growth."

"I think so too." Xu Lin nodded in agreement. She had been abused by the Xu family for 16 years, and her physical development was also affected.

Xu Lin decided to replenish herself and save her, maybe she could grow taller.

But her frankness made Mistress Wang even more happy. She liked the frank little girl and pulled Xu Lin to talk about many things in the countryside.

Tell Xu Lin what jobs she can take and what jobs she can't do. If the jobs she can't take are assigned to her, she can find them for him.

They country people don't have much else, they just have a lot of strength, and they can grow back after using it.

He also told Xu Lin which people in the village had bad tempers, which people were not allowed to get involved, and which people were second-rate, so they should avoid them if they encountered them.

In short, Xu Lin was told many secrets that were not allowed to be told outside the village. In just a short while,

Xu Lin knew all the secrets that even the educated youth might not know.

After reminding her of the important points several times, Mistress Wang got down to business. In terms of social interaction, Mr. Wang couldn't even catch up with Mistress Wang in terms of flattery.

Looking at Huzi's little mouth, he seems to be following Mistress Wang, maybe that's what he said.

Mistress Wang was even more moved when she heard that Xu Lin's malted milk powder was only 25 yuan a jar. The price was really reasonable and she didn't have to pay a penny more.

The most important thing is that they can't even buy it with money. The supply and marketing cooperative either runs out of stock or the goods are sold out as soon as they are put on the shelves.

As soon as those with connections heard the news, they went to the supply and marketing cooperative to grab the goods. By the time the news reached their ears, they had already been robbed.

They have also bought on the black market. Not only is it expensive, but it is also difficult to buy. You have to try your luck. If you can buy it twice out of ten times, you are lucky.

The most important thing is that his family doesn't have much money, so they can't afford it if they rely on the black market.

It's okay if you buy it once or twice, but if you buy it more often, other people in the family will have opinions.

Alas, Mistress Wang sighed in her heart, this is really a waste of time.

Xu Lin did not take advantage of them. The big white goose was worth one dollar and a half kilogram. Xu Lin weighed it and knew that the big white goose weighed more than six kilograms.

Mistress Wang was given six pounds, so Xu Lin apparently took advantage, but compared with the malted milk, it was Mistress Wang's family who actually took advantage.

A big white goose was worth nine yuan, but the firewood he picked was actually worthless. Xu Lin calculated it as fifty cents, but Mistress Wang disagreed.

There is firewood on the mountain. You can pick up as much as you want. How can it be worth fifty cents?

Mistress Wang insists on calculating the [-] cents, but her old man will definitely not agree if it is more.

Their family has already taken advantage, how can they continue to take advantage?

Xu Lin didn't insist. Whether it was fifty cents or two cents, it was no difference to her, but she could see that Mistress Wang had a good character.

He would not bully outsiders because he was a local, nor would he take advantage of Xu Lin because she was young and ignorant.
