When Chu Xiangqian saw his second uncle taking out the money tickets, he immediately reacted.
In the afternoon, he and his cousin Chu Jiang took the black bear to the commune, and they would definitely be able to exchange money and tickets.
Just listen to Chu He say, "The commune looked out for the fact that your father had just passed away. Not only did they not lower the price, they also gave them the highest price they could."
Chu Qianqian was stunned, and quickly thought from his memory that if you take the things in the mountains to a commune or a supply and marketing cooperative, you can not only exchange them for money and food, but you don't have to worry about anyone making trouble.
Every year, the commune has the task of collecting supplies from the mountains and handing them over to the villages below.
Considering that there is no arable land in Forest Farm Village, indicators such as chickens, ducks, pigs and grain are not given to Forest Farm Village.
But it needs to be replaced with mushrooms, fungus, and game.
As long as the tasks for the year are completed, the excess can be used to communes and supply and marketing cooperatives in exchange for rations, money and other daily necessities.
Just like a living sika deer, if sent to the commune, it can be exchanged for 100 kilograms of grain.
But this is definitely a loss, just like the price of later generations who went to the mountains to purchase mountain goods was often several times, or even ten times lower.
The best rice costs 2 cents per pound, and the second-rate rice costs 16 cents to 18 cents per pound.
One hundred kilograms of grain only costs about 20 yuan. Including the value of the food stamps, in monetary terms, it costs at most 30 to 40 yuan.
But if you take a sika deer weighing 70 to 100 kilograms to the pigeon market, judging from the situation in the current difficult period, it will definitely sell for 70 to 80 yuan, or even more than 100 yuan.
This price is definitely a loss, and a big loss. And after the Chinese New Year, the price of meat in the pigeon market may double.
If the black bear hadn't been carried back by Chu Xiangqian, Chu He and Chu Jiang would definitely have been sent to the pigeon market.
Just that bear skin, if it is well treated, can be sold for hundreds of dollars, and many people want it.
Including bear paws, bear bile, meat and bones, the total of three hundred will definitely be no problem.
Chu Xiangqian took the 150 kilograms of food stamps and 120 yuan, and heard Chu He sigh and say, "The commune has confiscated blind bears in the past, and the commune leaders couldn't give a clear explanation.
I simply exchanged the fat pig's net meat output for grain, and gave you another 120 yuan, which was considered the purchase price of the bear's paws and fur. "
The pigs of this year will not be able to achieve the meat yield rate of 72%-80% in the future.
It would be good to have 50%.
Chu Xiangqian didn't care too much about the fact that the blind bear weighed more than 320 kilograms. He took out the money slip and handed it to his second aunt, which was regarded as settling the expenses for his father's funeral.
Then he looked at Chu Yuan and asked, "Sister, how much did your family spend?"
Chu Yuan was stunned, and a surprised smile suddenly appeared on his face.
Although the second uncle is responsible for the uncle's funeral, his family actually has some expenses, but Chu Jiang won't let him talk about it, and Chu Yuan also regards it as a filial piety to the uncle.
Now that I heard my eldest brother asking, I naturally couldn't hide it.
In case people don’t know about the help, let alone since the eldest brother is not short of money or food, why shouldn’t he?
"It should be 3 yuan and 4 cents and seven or eight pounds of whole grains."
After saying that, for fear that Chu Xiangqian wouldn't believe it, he added, "Brother, I have a notebook to record it. I'll go get it now."
"Okay," Chu Xiangqian called Chu Yuan, took out 5 yuan and 5 pounds of food stamps and handed them to her, "The extra money will be used to buy you some headscarves and headbands."
Chu Yuan was not polite at all. He took the money and tickets and said, "Thank you, brother."
When the second uncle and the second aunt saw this, they couldn't help but smile.
Sometimes giving more does not necessarily mean that you are closer to someone, but it actually means being polite and open-minded.
After understanding the matter, Chu Aiqiu's smiling face was wrinkled, looking at Chu Qianqian with an expression of expectation and fear.
Chu Qianqian thought for a moment and guessed that this little girl also wanted to buy a hairband.
I wanted to give him thirty cents or fifty cents, but after thinking about it I decided against it.
The money given to Xiao Qiu'er won't have to wait until tomorrow, and the second aunt will collect it tonight.
After leaving his second uncle's house, Chu Xiangqian took out two pieces of one piece and gave them to Chu Yuan and Aimin respectively.
He asked Chu Yuan to buy some hairbands and other things for his little sister, and asked Aimin to share the patriotic 50 cents tomorrow, which was considered their pocket money.
Aimin almost jumped up with joy.
For him, a little guy who rarely has five cents in his pocket, 50 cents is a lot of money.
Chu Yuan was more sensible, and just asked her to return the money to Chu Xiangqian, which was impossible.
This is a bit like later generations. When uncles or eldest brothers come home during the Chinese New Year, even if they grit their teeth, they still have to give lucky money to their younger siblings, nephews and nieces.
And when a child gets money, how can he think about whether this money was saved by uncles or uncles from their pockets?
Chu Xiangqian didn't lack either of these, or two of them.
After returning home, Chu Qianqian fell asleep, while Da Zhuang and Hong Niu acted as guards and lay beside the fire pit.
After the second aunt watched Aiguo, Ai Lin and Ai Qiu fall asleep, she washed her second uncle's feet with foot-washing water and asked in a low voice, "Dad, has the eldest nephew changed a little differently after he recovered?" ?”
Chu He stared after hearing this, "I don't care if he changes or not, as long as he is from my old Chu family."
After saying that, he was worried that his wife would think too much, so he said in a kind tone, "It's not like you haven't seen the past few days, you really almost didn't make it through.
Besides, as the old saying goes, those who survive a disaster will be blessed later.
There are also stories in books about people who, like the eldest nephew, escaped from hell once, and when they woke up, they became smarter or had infinite powers. "
The second aunt thought for a while, then nodded and said with a smile, "It's indeed a good thing. In the past, the guy who went forward was not as smart and generous as he is now."
Chu He sighed, "If you want to be generous, you have to be confident. Although the bear was injured a long time ago, it was an advantage to be able to kill it forward.
But this afternoon he went into the mountains and caught a roe deer and two pheasants, and his skills have indeed improved. "
The nephew is now able to live a good life on his own, and he seems to be willing to help the family just like his uncle. The second aunt is naturally very happy.
As for Chu Xiangqian, his father's funeral and his own coma can be regarded as a lesson in adversity.
Naturally, I will become closer to my second uncle’s family.
The night passed quickly. When Chu Xiangqian woke up early in the morning, he immediately went to Novice Village.
This time, Da Zhuang and Hong Niu could easily handle the refreshed 15 pheasants without him having to do it himself.
Putting the pheasants into the storage compartment, looking at the number of 45 pheasants and two wild boars, Chu Xiangqian couldn't help but wonder if he should sell them on the black market.
As a funeral director, he has not really integrated into this era at this time. When he sees an opportunity, he naturally thinks about how to make more money.
In the past two days, he had already touched all the pots and pans in his second uncle's house.
Unfortunately, he only received 1 gold coupon, or the treasure inherent in the antique, which made him want to go to Gezi City more and more.
Even if you don't sell wild boars, you can get more treasures by looking for some antique calligraphy and paintings in Gezi City.
Of course, since I went to Gezi City, it would be no problem to sell a few pheasants.
I went to town and exchanged all my food stamps for food.
After all, some local food stamps have an expiration date.
If you don't replace it, you'll be at a huge loss.
At the same time, he also wanted to see what the capital was like in this era.
But when he actually entered the city, he suddenly became disappointed.
At this time, the third ring road in Beijing is all suburban. They are at most as big as third- and fourth-tier cities, but their prosperity is not as good as that of fifth- and sixth-tier cities.
