Chapter 316 Taken advantage of
How could Bai Hehua bear to see the rice being taken away? She knew she had talked too much, so she said embarrassedly: "I'm so sorry, I talked too much just now. How about we just give you the same price of 50 cents as others, five dollars a bag."
She didn't want to be taken advantage of. It was half as expensive as others. Although she had money, couldn't she use the extra money to buy other food?
“Buy it if you want. If you don’t want to buy, don’t make trouble here.” The vendor stared at Bai Hehua impatiently.
"Okay, I'll buy it, one dollar at a time." Bai Hehua took out ten dollars from her pocket and bought the ten kilograms of rice.
Thinking that the rice was delicious, I felt better.
Pay the money in one hand and deliver the goods in one hand.
She was holding rice and pushing her bicycle. It seemed that she was late and a lot of the good meat had been sold out.
She tied the rice to the back seat and left the black market.
She kept riding her bike towards home, completely unaware that there was a tail following her.

"The child said he wanted to eat stew at noon, so you should stew it for the child at noon." Qian Gailou looked at his wife and thought she must have gone out to buy so many things.
"Okay, okay, I'll do it for you at noon today to build a building. Look what I bought?" Bai Hehua looked at her man and wanted to show off. Good things were not something their Qian family could give, so she could also buy them. But she would never say that she bought this thing for one dollar per pound.
Otherwise it would be so embarrassing.
She held the rice in front of Qian Zailou with a smile on her face: "Zailou, it's not just your Qian family who can get good things."
Bai Hehua raised her chin proudly, waiting for the man to praise her personally.
Qian Gailou looked at the familiar packaging and his pupils shrank: "Hehua, where did you buy this?"
Their supply and marketing cooperative doesn’t have this thing.
"Where do you think I can buy it? We are so close to the black market in South City, so I went to buy it in the black market. There are no good things in the supply and marketing cooperative where you are. Look at this dried food, it's so good. I'll make stew for you later." Bai Hehua smiled proudly while packing up the things she bought.
"You said you bought it on the black market in South City?" Qian Gailou narrowed his eyes slightly, and no one knew what he was thinking.
"Yes, haven't you bought things there before? Why are you making such a fuss? I think the things on the black market are better than those in your supply and marketing cooperative." Bai Hehua smiled. The main reason was that it was closer, closer to home than their supply and marketing cooperative.
That is to say, the price is a bit more expensive, but overall, the price is fair.
Qian Gailou squatted down and used a knife to open the bag of rice.
When the rice bag was opened, a fragrance came out of the bag.
Qian Gailou sniffed hard.
The rich aroma of rice lingers at the tip of my nose, and it feels like my head is filled with this smell.
He looked at Bai Hehua: "Do they sell a lot of this stuff?"
Bai Hehua didn't pay any attention to whether it was a lot or not. She just saw someone selling rice and bought a bag. She wanted to buy some too, but the seller didn't sell it.
I no longer paid attention to places selling rice.
She just bought some things and went home.
"To be honest, I didn't pay attention, but they only sold one bag and didn't sell more than that. The man said there were not many things, and it seemed like there was a purchase limit. I could only buy one bag, so I just bought some things and came back." Bai Hehua narrated what the vendor said.
Purchase restrictions? Even their supply and marketing cooperatives did not say there was any purchase restriction. You had to buy things with coupons.
This rice is indeed a good thing. The person who can get this rice must be the supplier. They have very good conditions and can sell it to a regular place. Why not give it to him? He is unwilling to accept this.
He is the purchasing director of the Xicheng Supply and Marketing Cooperative and has good channels. Why would he choose to sell to the black market instead of them?
Is there something wrong with the source of goods? But the goods are good, he can clean them all.
Now that the targets have been issued, no matter where you go to purchase, the superiors just want to see the results.
He was unwilling, so he stood up, looked at Bai Hehua and said, "You cook for the children at noon, I'm going to visit my second uncle's house."
"It's almost noon, you want to go to your second uncle's house for a meal? You'd better eat first, so as not to make your second aunt unhappy." Even if their conditions are okay, no one has much food, and everyone has to rely on their children. He is a grown man and can only eat a little. It would be bad if he makes his second aunt unhappy.
"It's okay, you guys eat first." Qian Gailou got up, rode his bicycle, and walked towards his second uncle's house.

Qian Zhiyun's home
"Why are you here?" Qian Zhiyun knew that he hadn't come home recently since he ran out of good things to give to Qian to build a building.
"Second uncle, guess what I encountered?" Qian Gailou said, and walked into the main room.
This matter must be discussed at home. If we talk about it in the yard, we are worried that the neighbors will overhear it.
The old lady saw Qian Zhalou coming at this time. Although she was reluctant to give up her own food, she could only curse in her heart and cooked for him as usual.
"Why are you keeping your uncle in suspense? Just tell me directly," Qian Zhiyun said with a smile.
Your niece-in-law saw someone selling the rice you distributed years ago.
Qian Zhiyun stood up quickly and asked, "Is someone selling it? Where? I went to the black market recently, but didn't find it. Or is it sold in the supply and marketing cooperatives?"
"Uncle, it's the black market. It's being sold in the black market in South City next to my house, not the black market in West City near your house." Of course he wouldn't say the quantity was not large. For the specific matters, he still needed his uncle to check out the situation, so he couldn't say anything for sure.
His wife is a carefree person. It's a big deal that she discovered this matter. She is a woman of that age, and he doesn't want her to be involved in this matter.
"ran to the black market in South City?" Qian Zhiyun stood up from his chair.
"Well, your second uncle has to go and have a look at the details. It's not appropriate for me to go. If you get the chance and meet that person, you can tell her that you want to cooperate with her for her goods. You will definitely give her a good price. As long as it's hard currency, you'll accept it." This food is needed all year round.
Now is the time when there is a shortage of food, and it is a good time to sell this kind of rice. No matter what the price is, even if it is one dollar, people who want to eat rice will still spend money to buy it.
As long as he can get the goods and complete his target task, everyone will make money. It is a win-win situation.
Qian Zhiyun narrowed his eyes slightly. This man looked young, but he was indeed unfathomable. He disappeared for such a long time and actually went to cooperate with the black market.
However, this good stuff is in short supply both on the black market and in supply and marketing cooperatives.
He thought about it and decided to cooperate with this person again.
