The third brother was sitting in the house drinking tea. When he heard the sixth brother come in and say someone was looking for him, he asked him to bring the person in.

As soon as Hua Rendong entered the room, he saw the third brother sitting behind an ordinary desk, holding an ordinary teapot in his hand, pouring tea into a small bowl used for eating. He looked very simple, and was totally unlike the pomp and circumstance of a black market boss like him.

The third brother raised his eyebrows and asked, "You're looking for me? What's the matter?"

Hua Honeysuckle said nothing, took out a bag of rice from her bag and put it on the desk in front of her third brother.

The third brother looked suspiciously at the half of her face that was exposed, but his hand had already untied the rope tied to the rice bag. He looked inside and his eyes widened in shock.

Compared to the common rice of this era, the rice produced by Honeysuckle looks like small light green pearls, and has a crystal-like feel.

The faint aroma of rice lingered in his nose. Without even cooking, the third brother was already sure that this was the best rice he had ever seen, and that it would definitely be better than the best tribute rice he had ever eaten if made into rice.

A smile appeared on his previously sloppy face. "Brother, how much rice do you have?"

Hua Rendong calculated that she could harvest three acres of rice every day in the space. Although the amount was not large, the rice blessed by the supernatural power and the space could yield three thousand kilograms per acre, and nine thousand kilograms per day. She had been planting for so many days, and except for a small amount sent to Xu Xixi, the remaining amount was at least more than 50,000 kilograms.

A sack weighs 200 kilograms, which means more than 250 bags. With Third Brother's ability, it will be no problem to finish them all. The question is how much he plans to pay per kilogram.

Hua Rendong did not answer directly, but asked: "That depends on what price Third Brother gives."

The third brother laughed and said, "From what you said, brother, you can have as much as I want?"

Hua Rendong shrugged. The third brother pondered for a moment and said, "Rice at the grain station is now 1.4 cents per pound. I don't need a ticket here, but 30 cents per pound. Good quality rice can reach 50 cents per pound. Your rice is obviously new rice, and its quality is better than the best rice I have. I don't plan to sell it in Xinshi, but send it to the upper reaches. It won't be a problem to sell it for one dollar per pound. But I have to take the risk and pay for the transportation and people to carry it along the way. How about I give you 80 cents per pound?"

Hua Honeysuckle's psychological price was 70 cents, but she didn't expect that the third brother would give her so much. She thought that he said he could sell it for one piece, and there was some water in it. She pretended to hesitate for a moment. The third brother was afraid that she would be dissatisfied, so he said, "You can ask for money, but I won't make any profit from the difference if you exchange it for tickets."

Honeysuckle said, "What if I want half money and half gold?"

"Haha, brother, you have foresight. Okay, then I'll take 10,000 kilograms to test the waters first. Do you have that much?"

Hua Rendong also laughed, "Actually, Third Brother can still dare to ask for some more."

Third brother's eyes were brighter than when he first saw the rice.

After negotiating a deal for 30,000 kilograms of rice and agreeing to trade at a factory in the suburbs of Xinshi at 8 o'clock in the evening, Hua Rendong left her third brother's place and went to the department store.

I got a bunch of tickets from Sui Yong, sorted them out after returning home, and found that some of them would expire at the end of the month. Hua Rendong planned to use up all the tickets today.

After going in and out several times, the space was filled with two boxes of Moutai, five kilograms of wool, a sewing machine, two washbasins, a thermos, a hot water bottle, milk candies, hard candies, biscuits, cloth, etc.

We had lunch at the state-owned restaurant in front of the station at noon. Following the waitress' enthusiastic introduction, I ordered the braised pork elbow she recommended, which tasted quite good.

Before leaving, I gave it another five-star rating and received a warm farewell from the waiter and chef.

I walked around the police station in front of the station several times, but didn't meet the bearded man. I was disappointed!

At five o'clock, Hua Honeysuckle rode his bike to the agreed transaction location.

This is a pig farm that has been abandoned for nearly twenty years. It has been abandoned since individuals were not allowed to raise pigs in large quantities. People have had difficulty getting food in recent years, and no government would want to reopen the pig farm.

There aren't many houses around, so it's a good place to do business.

Hua Rendong took out the rice that she had agreed to give to her third brother from the space, and also took out half of a big fat pig. She kept some of the other half and gave the rest to her best friend.

The third brother and his men came on time, obviously wanting to give Hua Rendong time to move the goods.

When he saw the sacks and half a pig piled in the corner, the thirty-something brother smiled with wrinkles on his face, "Brother, you are really a good brother of mine, Lai San. How did you raise this pig? It's too fat!"

After saying that, he stretched out his finger to measure the fat of the pig, "The fat is three fingers thick, it's really a good pig!"

Hua Honeysuckle doesn't like this kind of pork that is too fatty, but Xu Xixi likes it. The lean part is used for cooking, and the fatty part has other uses. In her words, she would rather eat lean pork that is fat than fat pork that is lean. The fatter the pig, the more delicious the meat.

"So how much do you plan to charge me?" He looked like he would decide whether to trade with you in the future based on how much you offered. Seeing that, the third brother didn't dare to make a random offer. After careful consideration, he said, "I sell pork for 1.2 yuan without a ticket. Brother, just look at this meat. I won't give you a ticket, but I'll still give you 1.2 yuan. How about that?"

"Okay, deal!"

He stretched out his hand and clapped hands with the third brother, who was also happy. "Brother, if you need good meat or rice in the future, please send it to me. I will not treat you unfairly."

Hua Rendong nodded vigorously. This third brother seemed to be a capable person and was obviously backed by someone. It was safe and worry-free to keep doing business with him. As long as he didn't have any other thoughts, she would be happy and relaxed.

With 30,000 kilograms of rice and more than 200 kilograms of pork, Hua Honeysuckle earned more than 24,000 yuan in one go.

Even before she traveled through time, she couldn't earn this much money by working hard for a month, let alone in this era of material scarcity and low wages. This is a huge sum of money that most people have never seen in their entire lives.

Regardless of the fact that Third Brother and his men were using carts to transport the rice and pork away, Hua Honeysuckle left alone first.

I went home and counted the money. There were more than 2,400 ten-yuan notes, but I didn't find a single legendary big black ten. Come to think of it, that money was recycled in 1964. It's already 1974, so it's impossible for it to still be in circulation.

Xu Xixi has been very busy these days. She occasionally left a message saying that she sent some of the jewelry Hua Rendong gave her to an auction house, and sold them for more than 200 million yuan. She then bought all the unsold shops in a newly built building in the city center.

There are five rooms in total, and she plans to use two for catering, one for high-end and one for the general public.

One room is used to sell fruits, vegetables, meat and eggs, one is a convenience store, and the last one is a flower shop. She hired some employees and only provided the supply.

It may seem far-fetched, but it is feasible if there is space to guarantee it.

Hua Honeysuckle just didn't understand why she and Xixi both had spaces, but she could grow vegetables and raise animals in her space, but Xixi's space seemed only for storage. She would bury a seed and dig it out after several days, and it would still be exactly the same as when she had just planted it.

Could it be related to the wood-related ability that Grandpa Tree gave her as compensation? Xixi didn't have the wood-related ability, so she couldn't grow anything in her space, nor could she raise any living things?
