The sweet potatoes were washed, but the ground was still wet.
"Wait!"
Just as he was about to leave, the vendor noticed that the sweet potatoes had been "carefully washed" and there was no dirt at all.
He had a good impression of Chen Feng and cut another 2 or 3 taels of pork belly.
Of course, Chen Feng had not washed the sweet potatoes, but the space gave him absolute control, which allowed him to separate different substances, and removing the dirt was just a piece of cake.
"Thank you for this."
Sweet potatoes are about 2 or 3 cents per pound in the city, and even cheaper in the countryside. The price is not very expensive, but the quantity is limited.
The seven big sweet potatoes he took out, even though they were more than twice as big as those in the supply and marketing cooperative, were only 20 pounds at most, and the price doubled or tripled, less than two yuan.
The vendor gave him more meat, which was quite a courtesy.
"Comrade, do you have any sweet potatoes? I can exchange them with money or tickets."
Chen Feng was about to leave with the meat, and the masked man who was waiting in line behind him to exchange meat asked hurriedly.
In addition to him, the others were also waiting for his answer.
Sweet potatoes are good things. In the absence of refined grains, sweet potatoes containing starch are easier to eat, and they taste slightly sweet, much better than porridge, cornmeal, wild vegetables, etc.
However, taking out seven large sweet potatoes was already the maximum limit for Chen Feng.
More is not impossible, but it may attract the attention of some people.
Although the risk is about a few percent, it is still a risk!
He poured the fish bucket down, indicating that it was gone.
"What about your home? Do you have any more?"
"No, there are only a few, and I dug them on the mountain road back from the countryside."
Chen Feng just talked nonsense and never drafted.
But his nonsense was right for him.
In the northern region, sweet potatoes are usually planted in April in spring and in October in autumn. After about 3-4 months of maturity, they will be harvested.
The sweet potatoes he took out are twice as big as those harvested in 3-4 months. They really look like wild sweet potatoes.
(Because no one harvests wild sweet potatoes, the growth cycle is extended, and the size will be very large. It is normal for giant wild sweet potatoes weighing dozens of kilograms to grow like pumpkins)
"Alas."
A group of people sighed.
I heard that there is meat for sale here, and more and more people come here.
Chen Feng hurried back home.
When he arrived at the wall outside the door, he vacated the space and filled it with fish buckets.
He kicked his feet and climbed over the wall with great flexibility.
As a result, he found the light of candles in the kitchen.
When he opened the door, he saw his second uncle Chen Jianguo eating supper, and the old man and the old lady were sitting on the side waiting for him to finish eating.
He went out after dinner, and he didn't know what to do.
"What good things did you get in exchange?"
Chen Jianguo took a mouthful of dried salted fish and a mouthful of porridge with eight parts water and two parts rice.
Chen Feng took out half a catty of lean meat and a piece of pork belly, five catties of peanuts, a few corn cobs, a few big sweet potatoes, and the last six wild duck eggs from the "fish bucket".
The old man wiped his eyes, suspecting that he had seen it wrong.
The old lady stepped forward and looked at the fish bucket.
Fortunately, it was empty.
Chen Jianguo picked up a sweet potato and wanted to take a bite without washing it.
"Pah!"
The old man was not polite and slapped him hard.
"Hiss, Dad, I really didn't pick it up by you?"
Chen Jianguo shook his hand in pain. The old man was very strong. He was still hungry. If it was before, it might have become swollen.
"Well, it's not a dream!"
The old man nodded with satisfaction.
He turned around and looked at Chen Feng.
His eldest grandson is so smart. His two sons combined are not even one-tenth as good as his grandson.
"Xiao Feng, which big fool did you exchange it with?"
Chen Feng: "..."
I'm not stupid, not at all!
"Grandpa, don't worry, I promise I won't bring any trouble to the family."
Chen Jianguo rolled his eyes and said, "Are you stupid? We are not selling. Sellers have trouble. Buyers are capable. What are you afraid of? Whoever asks you, let him come to me."
Second Uncle Chen was bragging. Anyway, Chen Feng was the buyer, so if there was a problem, it would definitely not be his.
He could brag boldly and forcefully.
And those who can sell peanuts are definitely not simple.
Because this thing is a controlled commodity, ordinary residents can only receive a non-staple food purchase voucher once a year during the Spring Festival. You can't buy it whenever you want!
Seeing the old man put the peanuts into the small dustpan, he immediately became jealous.
"Dad, my dear dad, several kilograms of peanuts, please leave some for me.
" "When the old man heard this, he really left a handful.
In the end, he didn't forget his eldest son.
"Remember to share some with your eldest brother!"
Chen Jianguo looked at the peanuts that could be counted at a glance, and his fists hardened.
Dad is too cruel!
It's fine if he hides the delicious wine, but he can't bear to drink it. He will only open a bottle during the Spring Festival.
Even the peanuts have to be saved for the Spring Festival?
It's October 1st now, and there are still 118 days to the Spring Festival.
Don't ask him why he knows so much!
"Xiao Feng, if you have a chance, exchange some more peanuts with that big fool. This stuff goes well with wine. ”
Peanuts and sesame are both oil crops that can be pressed for oil, and the relevant departments have always kept a tight control on them.
Those who are able to get tickets all have connections.
At present, every household in the city of Sijiu is provided with half a catty of non-staple food vouchers during the Spring Festival every year, which is difficult to obtain at other times.
The Chen family was divided into three households, and they only had a maximum of one and a half catties a year.
After 1965, it was changed to each household with a certificate, and each person was provided with half a catty of peanuts (including peanut shells) and 2 taels of melon seeds every year.
In other words, Chen Feng took out the amount that his family had for several years.
But the person involved still felt puzzled.
It's just a plate of peanuts, there are plenty in the space.
"You two are almost seventy years old in total, and you are still so dishonest. "
The old lady carefully put away the big sweet potatoes, corn cobs, pork and wild duck eggs and placed them in the wooden cabinet in the kitchen.
This wooden cabinet is rat-proof.
There are a lot of rats in the old city, especially in old residential areas like Siheyuan.
However, since Chen Feng drank the serum, he would go around the house from time to time. Over the past few days, their home has inexplicably become a rat-free area, and even fleas have begun to move.
"Xiao Feng, don't change peanuts next time, it's useless, change more oil and sweet potatoes, corn cobs are also fine."
"But if there are duck eggs, don't change them, save them for you to eat. ”
Eggs have been in limited supply since January 1958. With a food purchase certificate, each household can be supplied with 2 jin tickets per month. Large households with more than ten people can be supplied with an additional 1 jin.
However, the price of eggs is expensive. In July and August, it was 84 cents per jin. Now that the autumn harvest is over, it has dropped to 76 cents.
It is much more expensive than pork. You should know that first-class fat meat is only more than 60 cents.
Now if you have a ticket, if you are lucky and have connections, you can still grab eggs.
In 1960, according to regulations, eggs were only supplied to "special needs personnel" and ordinary residents could not buy them at all.
"Okay, grandma."
Chen Feng agreed immediately.
Go back to the room and sleep peacefully.
