1959Siheyuan, a Turnaround

Chapter 25: Selling prey cleverly.

At this time, Zhao Daqiang hung the salted fish on the branch of a short tree nearby, turned on the flashlight, and checked the quality of the fish.

"Little brother, I've checked the stuff and it's all good. Two sets of three-turn and one-ring tickets and certificates are all here. Take a look!"

Li Weiguo used the light of a flashlight to look through all the bill proofs.

"Brother Qiang is naturally considerate, I will accept the things!"

At this time, the man who had been crying just now also presented the things in his arms with both hands.

"Thank you so much, little brother! You saved my whole family's lives!"

Li Weiguo took the item and sighed, "As it should be. If it weren't for being forced into desperation these days, no one would take out the heirloom from the bottom of the family box! Alas!"

He sighed and put the jade bracelet away: "From now on, you guys figure out how to move it! I'll leave first!"

"Little brother, don't forget your salted fish!"

OK! Zhao Daqiang has a really good memory. He is still thinking about his salted fish.

"Okay, I'll take it then!"

After getting the salted fish, Li Weiguo wandered into the black market again as usual.

The gatekeepers were not surprised to see him passing by, and today the ticket collector followed this man back and forth twice.

He could recognize the person at a glance by the thin figure.

What's more, the boss had just told him to take care of this little brother when he went in and out of the black market today, so he naturally followed the boss's instructions.

Li Weiguo returned to the black market, where he wandered around and exchanged a few pieces of cloth and two old porcelain pieces.

He exchanged them all with potatoes, because there were a lot of potatoes in his space. Potatoes can be eaten not only as vegetables but also as food.

When they were almost full, the other party got very excited when they heard that they could exchange potatoes for them.

Li Weiguo was not in a hurry. He wandered around the market with a salted fish in his hand. When he saw someone he was interested in, he would secretly trade with them.

Fortunately, this black market is large and crowded, so Li Weiguo is hidden in the crowd and inconspicuous.

If it weren't for his lazy guy, the effect might have been better.

Everyone who has done business with Li Weiguo remembers the smell of salted fish on him, and many people subconsciously think that Li Weiguo is a fisherman.

After shopping for a while, Li Weiguo came to his second uncle's stall.

He also deliberately hid in the dark and listened to how his second uncle Li Dahe negotiated deals with others.

"Brother, how much do you sell this wild rabbit for?" A woman with a bun on her head asked in a low voice in front of my second uncle's stall.

My second uncle just said, "I won't sell it, I'll just exchange it for food!" and then he stopped talking.

Maybe the woman really needed pheasants and rabbits, so she stood in front of her second uncle and refused to leave.

Not long after, she asked again: "Where's the pheasant?"

"I won't sell them in exchange for food!" Second Uncle's words were still the same as before, cold and unsympathetic.

The woman still insisted and whispered disdainfully: "Sell it! There are too many people exchanging food in the market. How can there be so much food to exchange? I see that your pheasants and rabbits must be alive before I am willing to buy them from you. This rabbit weighs five or six pounds, how about 80 cents per pound?"

"I've already said that I'm not selling it, I'm only exchanging it for food. Why are you still being so unreasonable?"

"Brother, this... my son is getting married, and the woman wants meat dishes on the wedding banquet. I have no other choice. Brother, please help me!"

"I'm sorry, big sister. I'm exchanging food for my family's livelihood. What's the use of money without food? I won't sell it!"

Look! Li Dahe was so stubborn that he only cared about food and not money. He missed such a good deal right in front of him.

Eighty cents per pound is not a low price!

The woman stood by the stall for a while, but seeing that the other party really had no room for negotiation, she could only walk away in disappointment.

Li Weiguo thought that his second uncle’s rabbit was not for sale, but he could!

Besides, there are many rabbits, pheasants, and wild birds in the invincible storage space, and he can trade them with the other party.

He followed the woman's footsteps and went up to her. He leaned over and whispered, "Lady, I have pheasants, rabbits, and two salted fish. Would you like to exchange them?"

When Li Weiguo approached, the other party took a step back. It was all because of those two lazy guys.

"Stop! Just stand there and don't come over here, little brother. You smell too much like salted fish!"

Although the woman's mouth and nose were wrapped in a cloth, she could not escape the fishy smell of the salted fish.

The woman finally calmed down and said, "Where's the stuff? I'll talk about the price after I take a look!"

"Okay, just wait!"

Li Weiguo disappeared into the darkness again, and soon he came over carrying a pheasant and a rabbit.

Li Weiguo had tied the legs of the hare and the pheasant with grass, and they were still fluttering in Li Weiguo's hands.

The woman saw that they were all fresh pheasants and rabbits, and she immediately became interested. She walked over excitedly and asked, "Little brother, how much are they for?"

"A pheasant, a wild rabbit, and two salted fish, ten dollars in total!"

Li Weiguo just wanted to ask the Invincible Processing and Manufacturing Factory to help bundle them up, and it showed that the two items weighed a little over ten kilograms in total.

However, the packaging cost of things stored outside the system is twice the weight of the goods. Li Weiguo was reluctant to spend experience points, so he did not let the system bind him.

However, he also learned from this time that the Invincible Processing and Manufacturing Plant also had a weighing function, which was an unexpected surprise given to him by the system.

The woman leaned over and took a closer look at what Li Weiguo was holding, and finally whispered, "Nine dollars! Although the two salted fish are big, they are not alive. I'll take them for nine dollars!"

"This lady, I'll give you one yuan for a salted fish. You're still bargaining, and I feel like I'm losing out! If you don't want these two salted fish, forget it! The other two are eight yuan!"

"Forehead······"

The woman did dislike the strong fishy smell of salted fish, but at one dollar per fish, it was really a good deal!

If this were her son's wedding banquet, and there was an extra dish of fish, she would be proud of it!

She decisively took out a small cloth bag from her pocket and counted out a small stack of one dollar and fifty cents.

"Here's ten dollars. I want all these things!"

"Okay! Deal!"

Li Weiguo handed over the thing in his hand and took the money from the woman.

It's really inconvenient without a flashlight. It seems he has to find a way to get a flashlight.

Zhao Daqiang did have one, but he couldn't give it to himself. After all, he needed a flashlight to illuminate the way when he was dealing with tickets on the black market.

Without the burden of two salted fish in his hands, Li Weiguo's mood when shopping in the black market improved.

He returned to his second uncle's stall and saw that his second uncle was still determined to exchange for food. He didn't want to waste any more time, so he thought of a way.

He randomly picked a man in the crowd and asked him to exchange a pound of potatoes for the ten pounds of cornmeal prepared by Li Weiguo in exchange for his second uncle's pheasants and rabbits.

When the other party heard about this good thing, he agreed without even thinking about it.

"Don't worry, little brother! I will definitely get the pheasants and rabbits back safely."
