Chapter 121 Two Extremes: Poor People Selling Things, Rich People Buying Things,

The one-eared dragon looked at Hu Zi as if he was an idiot, frowned and said seriously: "This is East City, it is not under our jurisdiction. Why worry so much? Just do your own job and maintain order over there."

beard:"……"

Did he say something heinous?

Why was he attacked so crazily?

It was not until the one-eared dragon's back disappeared from his sight that Hu Zi came back to his senses after He Yuzhu's light cough.

"Ouch! Look at me, I almost forgot the important thing." Hu Zi touched his beard in annoyance.

As the two walked, Hu Zi introduced them.

"Brother, anything can be sold here. As long as you have it, and of course as long as you can afford the price, you can get whatever you need."

There were many people in the black market, so Hu Zi concealed the matter for him based on He Yuzhu's explanation.

He didn't ask why he wanted to pretend to be Liu Haizhong.

We are all neighbors. We see each other every day. How can we not know the person behind Liu Hai’s back?

As for that official-obsessed guy in Liu Haizhong, he would always put on his official airs and preach to others.

As if he was really some great official.

He behaved like this before he became the boss of the courtyard house.

After becoming the boss of the courtyard house, he became even more arrogant.

However, He Yuzhu was also a troublesome person in the past.

But that's just hearsay.

After all, the person selling pork that day was quite knowledgeable about the ways of the world and could tell right from wrong.

That day, He Yuzhu gave his family several kilograms of pork offal, which the family ate for several days.

Today he saw He Yuzhu being bullied by the scarred man, and he happened to learn that Du'er Long needed a wild boar of excellent quality, so he ran to tell Du'er Long.

He told One-Eared Dragon that the opportunity to deal with Scar Man had come.

Hu Zi did not tell He Yuzhu that Du'er Ye's arrival was because of him.

"Hu Zi, take me to the grain store. The rice jar at home is almost empty."

He Yuzhu did not forget that the most important task tonight was to find food.

Hu Zi led He Yuzhu towards the grain warehouse. During the walk, He Yuzhu intentionally or unintentionally led the topic to Mr. Zeng.

However, Hu Zi talked about everything except Mr. Zeng.

After several attempts, He Yuzhu realized that he could not get any information about Mr. Zeng from Hu Zi.

However, it was not without gain, as he also learned about the grudge between the One-Eared Dragon and the Scar Man.

And the one-eared dragon urgently needs a wild boar of excellent quality.

In fact, it was given to a person whom even Mr. Zeng respected and feared.

Seeing that he could not dig out anything substantial, He Yuzhu began to browse the black market seriously.

It turns out that pork has the highest price on the black market.

Because pork contains fat, and what people of this era lack is oil.

If you eat a meal of fatty meat, you can keep yourself from being hungry for several days.

So compared to beef, mutton and other meats, pork is the most popular and the most expensive.

Whenever pork arrives in the market, it is sold out immediately.

Of course, those who can afford to eat such expensive pork must be either rich or noble.

Ordinary people cannot afford pork, so they choose beef and mutton, after all, they are at least half the price of pork.

In addition, the prices of chicken, duck and goose meat are not cheap.

Similarly, those who buy chicken, duck and goose meat are mostly from relatively wealthy families.

Ordinary people are the ones who sell things, while those who buy things are relatively wealthy.

The gap between the rich and the poor is obvious, and can be seen at a glance from their clothing and mental outlook.

After learning about the meat business, He Yuzhu went to the vegetable business.

The vegetables in the vegetable market are all wilted, and look bad and yellow to the naked eye.

Some of them have yellow leaves, some are not fresh, and some are frozen.

"It's too cold here, so there are no fresh vegetables. These vegetables were harvested from the fields before the snow fell and stored in the cellar."

"That's why these vegetables are so... hard to describe."

"If you want to find a fresh vegetable at this time, don't even think about it, there is none."

He Yuzhu nodded and picked up a large cabbage. "How much is this cabbage per pound?"

"5 cents."

Vegetables are more expensive than meat.

After removing the yellow outer part of the cabbage, only 2/3 will be left.

He Yuzhu asked around and found out that the cheapest vegetables cost 4 cents, while the most common vegetables cost 5 cents per pound.

The prices on the black market are outrageous.

In the market outside, green vegetables cost no more than 20 cents per pound, and that’s for the ones that look very fresh.

Otherwise, it's generally around 1 cent per pound.

Of course, you use vegetable coupons to buy vegetables outside.

The prices in dry goods stores, seafood stores, fruit stores, cloth stores, etc. are two to ten times more expensive than the normal market price.

Finally, He Yuzhu came to the grain store. The old rice was 5 cents per pound, and the price of fresh rice ranged from cents to one dollar.

Sweet potatoes, corn and potatoes are also as the leader said.

expensive!

It’s so expensive!

However, the prices in the West Market are slightly cheaper than those in the East Market.

The public security is better, the sanitary environment is quite clean, and the quality is better than that in the East City.

It can be seen that the one-eared dragon is a good manager.

It's a pity that he took a crooked path and was ultimately despised by the world.

Half an hour later, He Yuzhu had finished visiting the entire black market.

He Yuzhu clasped his fists and thanked Hu Zi, "Thank you for showing me the market, but unfortunately I'm short of money, my pockets are cleaner than my face, and I can't afford the things inside."

Hu Zi smiled and pointed to his pocket, "Isn't that a huge sum of money?"

"The prices here are ridiculously high, and this little money can only go a long way."

"Besides, I have urgent need for this money. My sister needs to go to school, and my wife's sister also needs to go to school. The whole family depends on this money to celebrate the New Year."

"How dare I squander it here?"

Hu Zi smiled and then stopped laughing. He agreed deeply, "If the prices outside are normal, you can eat a lot with this huge amount of money."

"Buy some bills and keep them at home. With the bills, you won't have to worry about not being able to buy daily necessities."

He Yuzhu nodded, "I think so too. The food here is more expensive than gold. I can't afford it."

"If the weather is suitable next time, I will go up the mountain and try my luck. If I can hunt a wild boar or other wild animals, at least I won't have to worry about the meat."

Hu Zi: "That's great. If you hunt wild animals and want to sell them, please let me know so I can buy some to eat during the New Year."

The two exchanged greetings for a while, and it was already 4 a.m., and He Yuzhu said goodbye to Hu Zi.

Before he left, Hu Zi whispered to him to be careful with the huge sum of money.

Even though Hu Zi repeatedly warned him, he still felt uneasy, so he suggested, "Brother, why don't you wait a moment? I'm almost done with work. For safety reasons, let's go back together!"

He Yuzhu smiled and rejected Hu Zi's kindness. "Thank you, Hu Zi. You saw me fighting more than 10 people alone. I am not undeservedly called the God of War."

"Besides, maybe I'm lucky and I didn't run into that annoying thing. You can just do your own thing and there will be no problem returning."

However, the slaps in the face always came fast and hard, and he was blocked in the alley...
