Burning down my ex-husband's house! I won't raise these bastard children anymore

Chapter 27 Have you never eaten pork and seen a pig running?

Gu Mobai smiled and said, "I bought it from abroad..."

"Can we still buy things from abroad now?" Lin Feng was very surprised.

Lin Panpan's face was also full of curiosity. The country was now in the planned economy era, and foreign trade was subject to strict restrictions.

Economic exchanges with foreign countries are mainly concentrated in certain specific areas and channels, and are mostly coordinated and arranged at the national level.

For ordinary people, it is almost impossible to buy goods like leather jackets from abroad.

Gu Mobai smiled and said, "I have an uncle who has some business dealings abroad. He brought me two pieces."

"Dude, you're really awesome." Lin Feng couldn't help but admire.

Lin Panpan is still quite depressed. Those who suffer from drought will die of drought, and those who suffer from floods will die of floods. No matter what the national situation is like, rich people can live a good life.

Gu Mobai coughed and said:

"You guys carry your things, and put this ox cart in our yard first!

By the way, are you all from the same village?"

Lin Feng nodded and said, "Aren't we from the same village? This is my great aunt..."

"What? Aunt?" Gu Mobai was stunned.

Lin Feng continued, "Lin Panpan is older than me, so we all call her aunt. This wild boar..."

Lin Panpan pinched Lin Feng hard. This old man never kept quiet.

Lin Feng cried out, "Ouch! It hurts..."

"What wild boar?" Gu Mobai also reacted.

Lin Panpan sighed and said, "Actually, the ones in this basket are wild boars..."

Gu Mobai stopped immediately: "Selling wild boars? You are so brave..."

Lin Panpan covered his mouth with her hand and said, "This wild boar is domesticated. Where would we get the money to buy a piglet? We just brought the wild boar back..."

She also knew that it was not good to lie like this, but since she was already here, she couldn't take the wild boar back with her!

Gu Mobai thought for a moment and said, "Okay! Then you have to be careful. But you'll lose a lot if you sell it this way. Wild boars are more expensive."

Lin Panpan directly took out a few black masks from her pocket and said, "Put these on."

Gu Mobai looked at her and said, "You came here well prepared! You know quite a lot, don't you?"

Lin Panpan coughed and said:

“Even if you haven’t eaten pork, have you seen a pig run?

Isn't this common sense? It would be so embarrassing if you got caught."

Gu Mobai looked at her sly smile and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Lin Panpan glanced at Gu Mobai's height and sighed:

"You're too tall and stand out in the crowd. Why don't you just drop us off there and leave?

Let's meet at the pharmacy later. I have some herbs to sell, and I won't forget your share."

Gu Mobai curled his lips. Was he being disliked?

Gu Mobai led them for more than twenty minutes before saying, "It's right here. I've been here a few times. There are still quite a lot of local tyrants here. Be careful. I'll wait for you at the door."

This is an abandoned factory with potholes on the ground and weeds growing tenaciously from the cracks.

It is surrounded by dilapidated walls, some of which have collapsed, revealing uneven bricks and stones.

The small vendors were nervously guarding their stalls, with their goods placed in a messy manner.

There were cloths, old electrical appliances, food, and even some scarce food items that were obtained from nowhere.

Their eyes were full of vigilance, and they were always paying attention to the movements around them. Once there was any sign of trouble, they would be ready to pack up and escape quickly.

At the dim entrance to the black market, a burly man stared at Lin Panpan and her group with a wary gaze and asked, "Where are you from? You have to pay to enter the black market. It's 20 cents."

Lin Panpan was slightly stunned. She never expected that she would have to pay money to enter the black market.

He hesitated for a moment and took out a few nickels from his pocket.

The man stretched out his rough palm, caught the coins, weighed them, and said, "Go a little faster."

Lin Panpan took Lin Feng and Xiaopang directly into the black market, which was like a vegetable market.

Lin Panpan found a secluded corner and squatted down. She took out a backpack and people gathered around her: "Hey! Is this pork?"

"Yes! Do you want some pork?"

Some people swallowed their saliva and asked, "How much is this pork?"

Lin Panpan looked at them and said:

"A piece of pork weighs five catties, and soybeans weigh eighty catties.

Thirty kilograms of flour, and twenty kilograms of food coupons. If it's money, it's forty yuan."

Someone shouted, "What? You're being ridiculous! Whose pork is so expensive?"

An old lady sneered and said, "I don't even know if this pork is fresh! How dare they sell it at such a high price? They are so mean."

Lin Panpan didn't say anything. If she could sell it, she would sell it. If not, she planned to take it all back.

There was not a single piece of meat in the entire black market, and many people swallowed their saliva as they looked at the meat.

Someone whispered, "Girl, can't you sell this meat for a little less? I only want one pound."

Lin Panpan nodded and said, "That's fine too. We have one-jin, two-jin, and five-jin sizes. What do you want?"

The price is indeed expensive, but it’s wild boar meat after all!

There was a chef picking and choosing at the black market. A senior leader was coming tomorrow, so he asked him to come and buy vegetables.

But what vegetables can you find here? Either wild vegetables dug from the mountains or grown at home.

We only grow potatoes and eggplants at home. We can’t let the big boss eat these when he comes!

He was very worried. It was not that he didn't go to buy meat, but he had to buy it!

When he rushed to the supply and marketing cooperative, all the meat had been sold out. When he rushed to the meat stall, it was already closed.

His face was now filled with despair, and he had already imagined the scene of being criticized by his leader.

He saw a lot of people gathered in front of a small stall. He quickly squeezed over and saw that the basket was full of meat.

He wiped his eyes and said, "Is this pork? That's not right! Little girl, this can't be ordinary pork, right?"

Lin Panpan didn't expect that this person would recognize her right away. She nodded and said, "Yes, it's not ordinary pork. Do you need any?"

"Yes, I need it very much, little girl, what do you want?"

"This one weighs five kilograms, this one weighs two kilograms, and this one weighs one kilogram. How many kilograms do you need?"

"Give me fifty... No, no, no, give me 80 kilograms." The chef was very happy. With 80 kilograms of wild boar meat, the problem was solved.

Lin Panpan nodded and said, "Okay! 5 catties for 80 catties of soybeans.

Thirty kilograms of flour, twenty kilograms of food coupons, if it were money, forty yuan.

How are you going to pay for it?"

Lin Feng next to him was dumbfounded. It was sold at such a high price. 80 kilograms were sold at once. It was simply scary.

The man laughed and said, "This wild boar meat, can I choose whatever I want?"

"Of course, you are the first one to buy, so you can choose the pork first." Lin Panpan nodded.
