Chapter 137 The sled went out, not a blade of grass grew
"Sister, I'm going out for a while." After packing up, Li Jia said to his eldest sister Li Jiaqi.
"Brother, why are you going out in such a cold weather? Isn't it good to stay at home?"
"I can't stay. By the way, do you have what you want? I'll bring it back to you later."
Li Jiaqi shook her head and said, "No, I don't need anything."
"Okay! I'm leaving then."
"Wait!" Second sister Li Jialin stopped him.
"What's wrong, second sister?"
"I mean brother, why do you only ask the eldest sister and not me?" the second sister Li Jialin asked dissatisfied.
“What do I ask you for?”
"Ask me if I want anything!"
Li Jiayi curled his lips and said, "No need to ask, you must want everything."
"You...you know it but you still don't ask. ?" said the second sister with a pout.
Li Jia spread his hands and said, "I just know that I don't ask, otherwise I'm afraid I won't be able to get what you want."
"I...I, you...you …”
"Okay." The eldest sister Li Jiaqi pulled the second sister.
She was really afraid that the two of them would fight, but she didn't say anything about Li Jiayi.
Because everyone in the family knows very well what kind of person Li Jialin is, a typical person who tries to push her boundaries.
"Brother, aren't you going out? Let's go." The eldest sister said quickly.
"Well! I'm leaving, eldest sister."
"Okay, pay attention to safety and come back early." The eldest sister arranged.
"I know, oh, by the way, sister, I might not be back at noon, you can just make something to eat without waiting for me."
"Yeah!"
Li Jiayi did not leave through the main door, but took the back door. Anyway, there were fewer people here.
The main reason was that Li Jiayi didn’t want to see the people in the courtyard.
After coming out of home, Li Jiayi took Asheng and the three of them and ran towards Deshengmen. Halfway through, Li Jiayi turned around and entered an alley.
When he came out of the alley again, there was a sleigh sitting on his butt, with a particularly large box on the back.
Ah Sheng leads the way, Ah Cai and Ah Quan are a little behind Ah Sheng, and the four greyhounds are a little behind.
It's like pulling on both sides.
Although the sled made by Li Jiayi is very large, it looks very relaxed when pulled by seven wolfdogs as big as calves.
Now the usefulness of these seven wolf dogs has come out. At this time, it can be said that Li Jiayi is the safest no matter where he goes.
No one looks at these seven wolf dogs without being afraid.
The most important thing is that the seven of them are very smart. I don’t know if it is because of the spiritual spring water, but the IQ of the seven of them is definitely not lower than that of a ten-year-old child.
Of course, except Li Jiayi, although he is also ten years old, he has been born in two lives!
A gust of wind passed by, and Li Jiayi arrived at the pigeon market outside Deshengmen.
Pigeon City now is at least about two feet higher than before, because there is snow underneath.
The sled is very easy to walk on, and it doesn’t even require much effort from Asheng and the others.
Looking at Li Jiayi again, a hood is put on his head, exposing his two eyes, and he also wears a locomotive hat outside the hood.
The reason why I wear it like this is not only to prevent others from recognizing me, but also to keep warm.
It was fine when I was walking, but when I was sitting on the sled, when I ran, the wind blew on my face like a knife.
After putting on a hood, this problem is solved, and you can also cover your face to prevent others from recognizing you.
It can be said that it kills multiple birds with one stone.
There are not many people in the Pigeon Market, and they are basically all city dwellers.
This is normal. In the current situation, there is no way to come from the countryside.
But it doesn’t matter to Li Jiayi that there are many people but few people, because he is not here to buy things, he is here to sell things.
Having fewer people selling things would be beneficial to him.
Finding a random place for Asheng and the others to stop, Li Jiayi opened the big wooden box at the back.
“Don’t miss it when you are passing by, fresh pork costs one yuan a pound.”
Ordinarily at this time, even if Li Jiayi sells it for one yuan and a half, there will be people rushing to buy it, but he still sells it One dollar.
When he first came in, everyone stayed away from him for fear of being bitten by his dog.
But now that they heard that he was selling pork, everyone cheered and gathered around him. Of course, there was still no one around Asheng and the others.
“Comrade, give me five catties.”
“I also want five catties.”
“I’ll give you two catties.”
“ Everyone lines up and comes one by one, don’t worry, everyone can buy it.”
The big wooden box on Li Jiayi's sled is huge! It is 1.5 meters long, 1.2 meters wide and 1 meter high.
Of course, it was empty on the way here. Just now Asheng and the others stopped and he put the pork in when he opened the box.
Otherwise, with so much pork, even if Asheng and the others were strong, it would probably be very difficult.
Because there are few, or even none, people selling things, Li Jiayi’s business is very good.
Soon everyone lined up and came over to trade one by one.
“Everyone who has national food stamps, sugar stamps and non-staple food coupons can also exchange them for meat. One pound of sugar stamps can be exchanged for one pound of meat, four kilograms of national food stamps can be exchanged for one pound of meat, and three kilograms of non-staple food coupons can be exchanged for two kilograms of meat. "
"Do you want other tickets?" Someone asked.
"I also need other tickets, but I'm afraid you don't have them. I also want tobacco and alcohol tickets. Which of you has them?"
"Uh!" The person who just asked him stopped talking. Just kidding, where did they get the tobacco and alcohol tickets?
"Okay, starting now, how much do you want, comrade?"
"I want five kilograms, but I only have two kilograms of candy coupons."
"No problem, you can give me the other three kilograms." Just give me the money."
"Okay, I want five kilograms. Here are two kilograms of candy coupons and three yuan."
Li Jia took it and saw that it was okay. He held out a five-pound piece of pork and handed it over.
"The next one."
"I also want five pounds, but I don't have a ticket."
"If you don't have a ticket, you don't have a ticket, just use the money."
" Okay, I’ll give you five pounds.”
The pork in the box went down quickly. Fortunately, the box was relatively high, so he could secretly put some in it.
The box is one meter high, yes, but don’t forget, this box is on top of the sled.
And people who came to buy meat were all queuing up. Even if they could see inside the box, they could only see a very small part of it.
To be honest, these meat buyers did not originally come to Pigeon Market with the intention of buying meat.
Only when I got here did I realize that there was no one selling anything in this pigeon market.
Li Jiayi came over just at this time, and what he was selling was pork. No, everyone came over to buy meat.
Li Jiayi is also happy! More pork was sold in this moment than in the previous day.
And there is a long queue behind it. If all these people buy it, at least three or four thousand kilograms can be sold.
“Comrade, do you sell suet?” asked an aunt.
"Pork suet! Let me take a look."
Actually, he didn't take out the suet, but since someone wanted it, why didn't he sell it.
The main reason is that there is too much pork suet in his space. You must know that he has never sold it before.
As for what my family and Liao Kai want, it doesn’t count at all.
Soon Li Jiayi picked up a large piece of pork suet and said, "I have pork suet. This piece weighs ten kilograms. Can you take it all?"
"I can take it all, if you can." Finished."
"Okay, pork suet is one dollar and a pound, these are fifteen dollars."
"Here's the money." The aunt quickly took out two big black tens and handed them over.
As if he was afraid that Li Jiayi would not sell it to her.
Actually, it’s normal. Suet is a good thing! Nowadays, when vegetable oil is not popular, lard suet is definitely priceless.
And even if there is vegetable oil, everyone still prefers lard because it contains oil and water!
At this time, no one is worried about whether eating pork suet will make you fat or whether it will be bad for your health.
He took the twenty yuan and gave five yuan to his aunt.
"Comrade, is there any more pork suet? I want some too."
Hearing someone ask, Li Jia thought for a while and said: "There is still some pork suet, but not much, everyone. Everyone knows that there is not much suet in a pig. "
The bigger and fatter the pig, the more suet there is. A domestic pig weighing more than 100 kilograms really doesn't have much suet.
Fortunately, the pigs in Li Jiayi’s space are very big and fat, and there is a lot of suet in them.
But he still doesn’t want to sell so much. He wants pork suet. Who is he selling this pork to?
No matter how much pork suet there is, there will still be more pork.
"Then give me five kilograms."
"Okay, here are five kilograms, please take it."
The pork suet costs one dollar and five kilograms! But it can be sold for a lot more money.
"Here, next one."
"I want two kilograms of pork and five kilograms of suet."
"Uh!"
I knew it would be like this, there is suet. , who wants pork!
But it doesn’t matter, he just said that there is not much pork suet, and after a while he announced that it was gone.
You still have to buy pork then, otherwise there won’t even be any pork.
Besides, his pork is fatter! Even if you buy pork, you can still make oil.
It’s just that the oil produced is not as much as lard.
But don’t forget, lard is more expensive than pork, and it costs 50 cents per pound.
Nearly three hundred kilograms of pork suet was quickly sold, and Li Jiayi stopped.
"I'm sorry, the lard fat is sold out, and now only the pork is left."
Although everyone is disappointed, there is no other way.
Not to mention, Li Jiayi can only conjure it up, but it’s a pity that they can’t know it.
Before noon, Li Jiayi calculated that at least 4,000 kilograms of pork had been sold this morning, and there were more than 300 kilograms of pork suet.
At this time, no one was buying pork anymore, because there were no people in Pigeon Market.
The people in the business who bought pork and lard had already gone home.
Li Jiayi also covered the wooden box and asked Asheng and the others to pull the sled out.
Of course I'm not going home, but I'm going to buy something. You know, I exchanged a lot of tickets today.
National food stamps can be saved for later use, but sugar stamps and non-staple food coupons have a time limit.
It’s better to use this thing earlier. Even if you don’t eat it now, you can put it in the space and eat it later.
There was a sleigh anyway, so Li Jiayi went to a supply and marketing cooperative that was far away.
This supply and marketing cooperative is in Jiaodaokou Street, which is far away from Xinjiekou and Deshengmen.
PS: Brothers and sisters, please get some monthly passes! Thanks!
