Sister Chunyan patted the purse in her pocket and said with a smile.

"Of course, we have money now anyway!"

Zhou Yue thought about buying the leopard meat mainly to taste it. She didn't know whether it tasted good or not, so she decided not to buy too much.

After a quick calculation in my mind, I decided to buy 40 kilograms.

There are about one or two hundred people in the base now. If we buy 40 kilograms of leopard meat, each person will get about two taels, which is enough to taste.

"Uncle Dong, give us 40 kilograms of leopard meat!"

"Okay! What do you want to exchange for? Salt and seafood?"

Sister Chunyan shook her head and took out a silver dollar from her trouser pocket.

"Uncle Dong, we won't exchange it this time. Let's buy it with silver dollars. How much is 40 kilograms of meat?"

Silver dollars are hard currency no matter where they are, and you can buy food anywhere with them.

The silver dollar of this era is not a coin, and its purchasing power is still very strong.

One silver dollar could buy nearly 20 kilograms of food, and if you saved some, it would be enough to eat for a long time.

Uncle Dong looked at the silver dollar, thought for a moment and said.

"It took some effort to hunt this leopard. Forty kilograms of leopard meat would cost two silver dollars, right?"

The price was not expensive, so Sister Chunyan handed over the silver dollar and started to skin and take out the meat.

Skinning is very meticulous. Uncle Dong holds a sharp knife in his hand and carefully removes the fur intact.

After peeling off the skin, the bright red meat inside was revealed. The leopard had a strong body, with more lean meat and less fat.

A leopard weighing one hundred kilograms would only have seventy to eighty kilograms of meat left after skinning and removing its internal organs.

I cut it in half for Sister Chunyan and put it in a sack.

Just buy a little leopard meat to taste, but you need to buy more wild boar meat.

This big wild boar looks fat and strong, and it should have a thick layer of fat.

The lard in my house is almost gone, so I use the fat to make a big can of lard. I add a little bit of it when cooking, and it tastes so delicious.

The big fair has just opened, and although there are many people around, not many have been sold yet.

The big wild boar has not been moved yet, and about one third of the smaller wild boars have been sold.

Sister Chunyan looked at the big fat pig on the stall and discussed with Zhou Yue beside her.

"Ayue, why don't we just buy a whole head? There are so many people in the base, and if we buy too little, there won't be enough to eat."

Hearing what Sister Chunyan said, Zhou Yue nodded vigorously, really agreeing with both hands.

"Hahaha, that's what I was thinking just now. If I'm going to buy one, I might as well buy a whole head!"

In the end, they bought the whole wild boar. They couldn't carry the three or four hundred kilograms of stuff back.

Fortunately, Brother Dong helped them and sent them directly to the base after the market was over.

After leaving Uncle Dong’s stall, the group continued walking and looking, and soon they were attracted to another stall.

There was an old lady at this stall, probably around 50 or 60 years old. Her stall was very simple, with only a cow tied to it.

There were a few people around, talking to the old lady.

"How can you sell meat if you don't kill it? Who can afford one?"

"That's right! You should slaughter the cow and bring it to the market! Who can afford to buy such a big cow?"

The old lady touched the cow's back with her hand and shook her head like a rattle.

"No, I won't kill this cow. Whoever wants to buy it can buy it all at once. I won't sell it piecemeal!"
