Chapter 3 My name is Mo Beichen
"Okay." Mo Beichen picked up the box, turned and ran back to his room, put the box on the desk, and quickly wrote a letter.
He will go to his grandparents' house later. He wants to provide some water to his grandparents, but he has to discuss this with the other party to see if they are willing to help.
Yang Muxi came to the warehouse with a trash can, cut off the surveillance of the warehouse, and then began to move potatoes.
She used to live broadcast to help farmers, but many farmers didn't know how to do it. Once she helped, she had to help till the end. It was very tiring, and she had no income.
Later, she changed her way of helping. She purchased agricultural products from farmers, and then processed, packaged, and sold them herself. This way, the agricultural and sideline products from farmers would not be unsaleable, and she could also earn some money.
It can also provide some employment opportunities for young people in rural areas, allowing more people to stay in their hometowns and develop.
She recovered the potatoes in the warehouse at a price of 50 cents per catty. When she came back, she packed the potatoes into boxes of ten catties and sold them through live broadcast.
The man gave 800 yuan to buy 1,600 kilograms of potatoes, but now there are only 80 boxes in the warehouse, so he can only give him 80 boxes first.
So Yang Muxi moved eighty boxes of potatoes.
Yang Muxi wrote a sentence on the letter paper and put it in the trash can.
"I'm going to send you half of the potatoes, please be ready."
She received a reply soon, and there was an extra word "good" under the words she wrote.
So she threw the potatoes into the trash can one by one, and the eight hundred kilograms of potatoes disappeared from her eyes.
Mo Beichen watched the rectangular boxes fall out of the vegetable basket one after another. He was afraid of hitting himself and kept backing away. After a while, his room was filled with identical boxes.
He quickly opened a box and saw that there were really potatoes inside. He was very excited. He didn't expect that his eight hundred yuan would be exchanged for so many potatoes. It seemed that this thing from another time and space was cheaper than the black market here!
Mo Beichen tore off another piece of letter paper and wrote, "The potato has been received. Thank you comrade for your help."
Then put the letter paper into the vegetable basket.
Yang Muxi replied, "You're welcome, I'll be happy if I can help you."
Mo Beichen looked at Yang Muxi's reply and quickly replied, "I wonder if I can ask comrades to help me buy food next time?"
It's summer now. Even if it rains, there will be no time to plant crops this year. Food will be planted in the spring next year and harvested in the fall. It is estimated that it will take more than a year to wait for the food supply.
These potatoes simply won't last until that time.
As the chief of the security department, he couldn't just watch the people under him go hungry, nor did he want to watch his relatives and friends go hungry. Now that there was this channel to buy food, Mo Beichen wanted to take advantage of it. You still need help from the other party to buy food or other supplies.
But the prerequisite is to obtain the consent of the other party and establish a cooperative relationship. Otherwise, why would the other party help him buy so much food again and again?
Just moving and transporting it takes a lot of effort!
"I can help buy food." Yang Muxi replied.
It was easy for her to buy things. With just one phone call, the suppliers would deliver them to her. Moreover, the people across the street paid for them themselves, so she didn't need to pay for them.
Mo Beichen was very happy when he saw Yang Muxi's reply. He quickly opened the box that his grandma had just given him, took out a pair of green bracelets from it, and put them into the vegetable basket together with the reply.
Grandma gave him these things in exchange for food. Who should he trade with? Seeing the green jade bracelet that appeared with the reply, Yang Muxi's eyes widened in shock. If she admitted it correctly, the price of such a top-quality bracelet should be at least seven figures, right?
"There is a pair of bracelets here. One is given to comrades as hard work money, and the other one is for comrades to help exchange for food."
"Can you please comrade provide some more water later?"
Yang Muxi was so excited that she almost screamed. Just like that, she had a bracelet that she couldn't even imagine?
Now let alone provide a little water, she is also willing to provide a pond of water!
"Just let me know when you need water. It's already very late. I'll go wash up first."
Yang Muxi put the reply letter into the trash can, placed the trash can under the faucet, took a basin of water from the sink, put the bracelet in it to soak, and then went to the bathroom to wash up.
After Mo Beichen received the reply, he quickly packed it up. He hid the small box that his grandma gave him at the bottom of his closet, then unpacked ten boxes of potatoes and put them into sacks. After moving out, he tied the sacks to his bicycle. On the back seat, he carefully hung the vegetable basket on the handlebar and left on his bicycle carrying the potatoes.
Yang Muxi came out of the shower and carefully cleaned the jade bracelet. The color of the jade bracelet looked more vivid and pure. Yang Muxi liked it so much that she quickly put the bracelet on.
When I was about to take a photo of the bracelet and send it to a friend in the jade business, a letter fell out of the trash can.
"I'm ready."
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Mo Beichen came to his grandparents' house and gave them a box of dumplings. Then he carried potatoes and a vegetable basket to the kitchen, wrote a letter to Yang Muxi, and stood next to the large water tank with the vegetable basket in his arms.
"I will start delivering water to you now." Yang Muxi informed the other party in a reply, then turned on the faucet, set an alarm clock, took a few photos of the bracelet, and sent it to Sheng Mengyu, who was in the jade business.
Ten minutes later, Yang Muxi turned off the faucet, wrote a letter, and put it in the trash can.
"It's late, I need to rest."
"I will let you know when I find out how many kilograms of grain the jade bracelet can be exchanged for."
Yang Muxi yawned loudly, then carried the trash can back to her room like a baby. She didn't expect that this ordinary-looking trash can would bring such a big surprise to her.
*
Yang Muxi passed twenty boxes of dumplings to Mo Beichen. Mo Beichen got two boxes for his grandparents, two for his grandparents, and ate one for himself, leaving fifteen boxes left.
The weather was hot now, and there was no way to save the dumplings for eating tomorrow, so Mo Beichen took the remaining dumplings and a hundred pounds of potatoes and went to the black market to find Jin Changsheng.
Jin Changsheng was his childhood friend, and they had a good relationship, but it was hard for a good woman to make a meal without rice. Even if his childhood friend was on the black market, Mo Beichen couldn't buy food.
Jin Changsheng hadn't opened here for a long time. He had no money, so he brought Mo Beichen a box of old items that others had used in exchange for food.
Although old items are not valuable now, they may increase in value in the future, so Mo Beichen quietly returned home with a box of old items.
When Mo Beichen was about to lie down, he realized that he still didn't know the name of his benefactor, so he quickly wrote a letter and put it in the vegetable basket.
"Comrade, let me introduce myself first. My name is Mo Beichen. I am twenty-five years old. I worked in a car factory after changing my job. What do you call a comrade?"
