Chapter 70 Transaction 2
She didn't look for anyone else, she went to find the mother and son just now, and at the corner of the alley, she saw the anxiously waiting mother and son.
Gu Qingyao walked over, "Big sister, I have ten catties of fine white flour, five catties of rice, more than thirty eggs, and fifteen catties of cornmeal, how much do you want?"
"Five catties of pork, and a pair of pig's trotters."
The old lady and her son almost cried with joy, they needed these things too much now.
"We want them all, we want them all! My daughter-in-law is in confinement, and she didn't get any good food when she was pregnant. Now she has no milk, and the baby is crying with hunger, so we are waiting for these."
Fifteen catties of fine grains are 75 yuan, and Gu Qingyao collected five catties of eggs, 25 yuan. Cornmeal is considered a coarse grain at this time, four yuan per catty, 60 yuan, pork is the most expensive, 12 yuan per catty, and pig's trotters are counted together, a total of six and a half catties, 78 yuan, adding up to 238 yuan.
The old lady looked distressed at the amount of money, but she had to buy them because even if she had money next time, she might not be able to buy them.
The most precious thing these days is food.
However, the old lady still wanted to save some money for emergencies. Their family only had more than 200 yuan in total. If they spent all of it, what would they do if they needed money next time?
"Big... big sister, can I take something to pay for part of the money?"
Gu Qingyao's eyes moved, "If it's an old thing, it's OK."
The old lady's eyes lit up, and she quickly took out a small cloth bag from her arms and took out a pair of jade bracelets from it.
This bracelet is not bad, the color is clear, with a little green, it is not the top-grade stuff, at least, it is far worse than the one she and Mo Beihan took from Chen Jin before.
This pair, the price in the future is about 400,000.
It may be considered valuable in the future, but now, the top jade is just some broken stones, which can't be exchanged for anything.
The old lady was a little embarrassed, and looked at Gu Qingyao cautiously, afraid that Gu Qingyao would be angry and not want it.
Gu Qingyao glanced at her, "One hundred and eighty yuan, plus this."
The old lady was immediately surprised, and hurriedly handed the things to Gu Qingyao, thanked her repeatedly, and ran away with the things very quickly, as if she was afraid that Gu Qingyao would regret not wanting it.
In fact, it's not her fault, because in this world today, her bracelet is really worthless!
If it is placed on the black market, it can only be exchanged for a few kilograms of food.
Gu Qingyao put away the things, found a place where no one was, and changed her clothes. This time, she specifically went to find those old people with ragged clothes, haggard and old, but very elegant to exchange things.
Most of these people are scholars who have been reformed through labor, capitalists, landlord families, etc. These people are most in need of food, and the things in their hands are also top-notch.
She can not only save lives by exchanging with them, but also get good things.
Sure enough, after a while, she used five catties of rice, three catties of noodles, and ten catties of cornmeal to exchange for a complete set of high-quality jade jewelry with bright green color, including a pair of bracelets, earrings, rings, and a string of beads.
Absolutely good stuff, green and beautiful!
Another ten catties of flour and a piece of bacon were exchanged for a set of top-quality diamond jewelry, a complete set of pink diamond jewelry, necklaces, earrings, bracelets, rings, everything. Seeing that she had so much fine grain in her hand, the man wanted to exchange some more, so he took out a snuff bottle and a ruby ring and exchanged them for ten catties of cornmeal with her.
Gu Qingyao smiled and gave him two catties of noodles and two apples.
This is a rich man, and he probably likes to eat these good things more.
The man smiled and narrowed his eyes.
I have been reviewing Wenwen these two days, so I have updated less. I will update more in a few days! Muah!
