After making the call, Su Mo thought about going to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some more meat. There was only one pound left of what she bought before.
In addition to what Geng Changqing gave him, Su Mo still has ten kilograms of meat coupons in his hand. First go and see how the meat is, and then decide how many kilograms to buy.
Not long after coming out of the post office, Su Mo met Sister Liu.
Sister Liu was chatting and laughing with a middle-aged woman pushing a bicycle. When she saw Su Mo, she quickly dismissed her and ran towards Su Mo.
"Sister Su, what are you doing?" Sister Liu was a little disappointed when she saw that there was only one basket hanging on Su Mo's bicycle, and it didn't look like it was carrying anything.
"I'm here to do something today." Su Mo said, "Sister Liu didn't go to work today? I was about to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to see if there was any meat for sale."
"I have a day off today. During this time, all the communes are sharing rations and the meat will not be cut off. Our supply and marketing cooperative has four pigs coming in every day." Sister Liu said.
Usually there is one pig a day, and occasionally two pigs on holidays. During the period when the public rations are paid, there is sufficient meat supply, so that four pigs can be eaten.
The purchasing station has collected so many pigs, but there is not enough food for them to eat. If they are not fed, they are afraid that the pigs will starve and lose weight, so they just kill them nearby to provide more meat to the supply and marketing cooperatives in the city and county.
Anyway, the weather is getting colder now, so people are taking advantage of this time to buy more and make it into cured meat or bacon, and save it for later eating.
"Sister Su, you bought so much meat last time and you just finished it?"
"How can we make bacon so quickly? This is not just taking advantage of the abundant meat supply to buy more."
Sister Liu's eyes flashed, and she approached Su Mo and said, "Sister, I have channels to get the meat, but the price will be a little more expensive. Do you want it?"
People like Su Meizi, not to mention eating meat every day, must eat one meal every two or three days, and the amount of meat they need will definitely not be small.
"How much?" Su Mo also lowered her voice and asked.
"Sister, now that we are both so familiar, you can send a few more baskets of fruit to the eldest sister. The eldest sister will give you a pound and a pound. I guarantee that they will all be fresh and good-quality meat." Sister Liu said.
She really didn't make much money at this price, and the meat was priced at one yuan a piece. This was because she was an acquaintance, so she gave her this price. Other second-rate dealers charged one dollar and three.
Su Mo thought for a moment and said, "I want fifty pounds of meat, can I have it?"
Sister Liu took a breath. She was afraid that she would not only make bacon, but also sausages.
"Okay." Sister Liu gritted her teeth, saying there was nothing she couldn't do for the fruit in Sister Su's hand.
"Can I get it today?" Su Mo asked. The weather was getting colder. There was no good excuse and it was not easy to go into the city all the time.
Sister Liu frowned. It was not particularly easy to get so much meat in broad daylight.
"Are there any more citrus? Can they be delivered today?"
"There are not many oranges left. I can only give you one more basket at most, but I can get you two baskets of yellow peaches." People here love canned yellow peaches, and they must also love fresh yellow peaches.
Sure enough, Sister Liu's eyes lit up when she heard about Huang Tao.
"Okay, just yellow peaches. How many baskets can you deliver today?"
"I can deliver up to four baskets to you today."
"Can't you have more?"
"No, eldest sister, it's cold now, and it's hard to get fruit." Things are rare and expensive. If you get too much at once, they won't be valuable in the future.
"Okay, then one basket of oranges, one basket of pears, and two baskets of yellow peaches." Sister Liu said.
"Okay, I'll take it directly to your home after I get it."
Sister Liu nodded, told Su Mo to go quickly, and went home herself. She quickly found her man and asked him to send meat.
So, Su Mo spent more than two hours delivering four baskets of fruits to Sister Liu, basically ensuring a frequency of more than an hour.
At other times, he spent time on uninhabited roads outside the city, absorbing energy in the bushes. She could feel that her ability was just shy of the mid-level first level.
Four baskets of fruit were sold for a total of 117.7 yuan.
The price of yellow peaches in supply and marketing cooperatives is similar to that of apples, and they are also sold at the same price as apples, 5 cents/jin.
When Su Mo delivered the fruits for the second time, the meat she asked for was also delivered. Su Mo checked it and found that the meat was indeed good and fresh. It should have been just killed today.
I paid 60 yuan for 50 kilograms of meat.
"Sister, if you get good things in the future, you have to think of me." Sister Liu said with a smile when sending Su Mo out.
She sells Su Meizi's meat at such a cheap price, firstly, it is a good idea to sell her, and secondly, she also shows her own strength. Su Meizi is not bad at getting good quality fresh fruits. She has a wide range of channels and can basically get some of everything.
"Okay, no problem." Su Mo said. Sister Liu is currently a very stable partner, and she has no plans to replace her for the time being.
In a deserted place on the way back, Su Mo put all the 50 kilograms of meat she bought into the space.
In this way, there is basically no need to worry about meat this winter. Occasionally, you can use your meat stamps to buy some from the commune supply and marketing cooperative to hide the source of the meat.
Returning to the brigade, Su Mo found that the village was quite lively. When he saw several aunts happily walking towards the brigade headquarters, he stopped and asked, "Auntie, what happened to the brigade? Why is it so lively?"
The aunt smiled and said: "Su Zhiqing, it's no big deal. People from the credit union are here to encourage everyone to save money. As long as you open an account, you will be given a one-foot cloth ticket."
Su Mo:......
It turns out that banks began to collect deposits from this era.
I guess I heard that the Lujiacun brigade had a lot of money, so I came down to help them do it without going to the bank.
The director of this credit union is really perceptive. We even opened an account and gave away cloth tickets.
These days, cloth tickets are very attractive to ordinary people.
In rural areas, each person is only given three-foot-four cloth coupons a year. To make a new suit, three or four people need to put together the cloth coupons. New clothes are made in rotation, this year for me, next year for you, and the year after that for him. Families with many children may not get it for several years.
Su Mo also wanted to see the excitement, so she also rode to the brigade headquarters.
Not to mention, there are quite a few people applying for passbooks.
These days, people’s thoughts are pure.
The director of the credit union put a high hat on everyone, saying that he would deposit the spare money in the bank and lend it to the country for construction, which greatly enhanced the atmosphere. In addition, there were cloth tickets being issued, and anyone in the brigade who was not the one who could not blame the blame was , all came to open an account and deposit money.
For rural people, it is a great thing to be able to save money in the bank.
So, the members of the brigade were happy, and the people in the credit union were also happy. Hello to you, me, and everyone.
Just when Su Mo was about to go back, the postman who had just arrived stopped her: "Comrade Su Mo, I have your letter."
Su Mo was surprised who wrote the letter to her. When she took it, she saw that it was Yang Suyun!
