Era: Start as a buyer

It was past six o'clock, and Liu Xiaofei had been lying in bed all morning again. She wanted to kiss and hug her and lay on the bed for a long time before she got up from the bed.

Eighteen years old, she can only be considered a little girl in this era. She may have matured physically, but her character in some aspects is incomparable to Luo Cheng's era. But if he sells loaches and eels every morning, he might never want to see Liu Xiaofei looking so lazy again.

Today they were only selling at the gate of the community. Luo Cheng just brought one pot over first and left a large pot next to the rented house. Cicadas were also brought here because the quantity was relatively large, and I felt that the owner of the private kitchen would not want such a large amount of cicadas.

Tools for killing eels were also prepared. Because there were not many people, Luo Cheng found that even one person was busy here. That is to say, because the price is cheaper than the market, people who are willing to ask about the price generally want to buy it. After hearing the price, they will most likely buy something.

Because of the price, I also met a few people who I know very well came to buy some.

When Liu Xiaofei saw that she was not busy, she took photos nearby and posted them on WeChat Moments, and recorded her "miserable" day starting a business with her boyfriend. I bought some breakfast from a nearby steamed bun shop, steamed buns with soy milk, and stood there eating them while watching. It didn't look like an eel seller at all.

The sales continued until after nine o'clock. How to say the income? Anyway, according to Luo Cheng, the cost was more than ten yuan per catty, so Liu Xiaofei did the math. You can earn more than one thousand by selling it for more than two thousand, which is how much you can earn according to the cost calculation given by Luo Cheng. The wholesale price of real eel sellers in the market is sixteen, and it is still a good-sized one. It sells for twenty. If you only sell so much like Luo Cheng, excluding the losses caused by driving to buy goods and some occasional deaths, you might as well go to work part-time.

I know that Luo Cheng also sells them cheaply, only 50 cents each, and there are quite a few people who are curious about it and buy thirty or forty at a time to go back and get some to try.

Liu Xiaofei has never cooked stir-fried cicadas before, but she wants to try it. She is still interested in making food.

After closing the stall, Liu Xiaofei went home and lay down to look at the income on her mobile phone. Although it wasn't a lot today, in her eyes, it meant that the two of them got up at six o'clock and finished work at nine o'clock, earning another thousand dollars. Although it was not as good as the previous two days, she was very satisfied, and the eel could still be sent to a hotel for collection.

But now comes the problem. The eel cannot be sold and will not die after being left for a few days. The loaches must pay attention to the situation, because Luo Lan and Luo Yan caught a lot of loaches yesterday, and only half of the loaches were sold. If it were left to die for a day, it might be worthless to Luo Cheng, but in Liu Xiaofei's eyes, it would be a big loss.

In order to reduce the so-called losses, Luo Cheng went to the market and bought a few more air pumps. He put the remaining loaches in a big basin and used the air pumps. After setting everything up, Luo Cheng called Boss Zhou of Private Kitchen and asked if he wanted more eel. The answer was still that he wanted as much as he wanted.

Liu Xiaofei was blowing the air conditioner at home, dreaming about a better life in the future. Only Luo Cheng was busy outside. Even in the afternoon, Luo Cheng went out again and went to see the meat seller on the old street privately. Liu Xiaofei didn't know.

Luo Cheng didn't want her to know that he still thought that he was the hero outside and the woman was the hero inside. There were some things that Luo Cheng felt it was not necessary for Liu Xiaofei to know.

Although Liu Xiaofei, the hostess, is incomparable to Zhao Qian, Luo Cheng admits that he is a little bit annoyed by her being more lustful than him in that aspect, and he also enjoys her childlike coquettish way of making love.

To be honest, Luo Cheng would have lived to be eighteen in his own time. Before getting married, even though he had all kinds of fantasies about women, he never thought about the relatively common interaction between lovers in this era.

That is the concept of interfaces. There is really no such concept. Many people in his time did not have the concept of interfaces.

The first time Liu Xiaofei indulged her, Luo Cheng was stunned when Liu Xiaofei put her tongue into his mouth.

This kind of communication is not allowed, it's a bit like eating each other's saliva. In the past, let alone spitting, even if it was a woman, Luo Cheng would try spitting a mouthful of saliva. Luo Cheng would generally not hit a woman, but if a woman spit on him, he would definitely do it.

But now, let’s not mention it, it’s not just about eating food anymore.

After returning from the old street in the afternoon, Luo Cheng played games again under the guidance of Liu Xiaofei. The time naturally passed quickly. People who are new to games are particularly prone to addiction. Not to mention competitive games with sensitive controls, if Liu Xiaofei played Tetris for Luo Cheng, he could play all day long.

"Luo Cheng, come over tonight."

After dinner, Liu Xiaofei went to live broadcast again to sell goods. However, during the two days of live broadcast, not a single item was sold, and it felt like the audience was not all female. Many men came into the live broadcast room because of her appearance and said they wanted to buy clothes, but they only bought clothes that Liu Xiaofei had worn.

A piece of clothing cost tens of dollars and was worn by Liu Xiaofei. It's not like she didn't understand these people. She doesn't mind being a profiteer and deliberately deceiving those people by shipping unworn ones, so she can tell the truth, but now she earns thousands selling eels and loaches every day. She just wants to deceive people for a few dozen dollars. It's okay to deceive them, but it's just She doesn't want some wretched men to fantasize about her.

Therefore, although Liu Xiaofei has only been live broadcasting for two days, she has established a pure image. Those who wanted to wear clothes were ignored.

"I made an agreement with my friend today. He will deliver the goods at twelve o'clock in the evening. I can just go out at 11:30 and come back after unloading the goods."

"That night~~?"

"You come and call me after the live broadcast, and I will go to the room to watch the TV series."

Hearing that Luo Cheng wanted to watch a TV series, Liu Xiaofei knew what he was watching. It was actually an anti-Japanese drama. After taking a bite of the bun, the remaining half would turn into a bomb if thrown out, and Luo Cheng was excited when he saw the Japanese being blown up. He is really childish, and it is understandable if he has feelings of hatred, but these days, there are basically no young people with such strong hatred like him.

Seeing that Luo Cheng has such feelings, Liu Xiaofei actually has a bold idea, but after thinking about it, she forgets it. Women still need to be a little more reserved.

After tacitly agreeing to finish the live broadcast, Liu Xiaofei went to the live broadcast and Luo Cheng went to catch up on the drama.

At around ten o'clock, Liu Xiaofei ran to Luo Cheng's room excitedly and said that she had sold two pieces of clothing and was finally open. Then she still gets a little crazier than usual when she gets excited.

At half past eleven, Liu Xiaofei fell asleep, and Luo Cheng pulled his hand out of her arms. Just in case, he set the alarm on his cell phone to twelve fifty, then got dressed and left the room, exiting the door and disappearing into the night.

1958, mid-July. Early in the morning, there is a courtyard in the alley at the west entrance.

"Good morning, Wife of the Luo family, are you going to the vegetable market to buy vegetables?"

"No, Aunt Liu, I'm just one person. Buying vegetables once is enough for me to eat for a few days. I'm a picky eater."

"If you don't want to buy groceries, go for a walk. It's not good to stay at home all day long. In this way, let's go to the market with my daughter-in-law. How can young people stay at home like you every day? Green moth, green moth~~"

"Mom, what's going on?"

"My daughter-in-law from the Luo family moved to the city from the town below. She is usually alone at home with no company. We are all neighbors across the street, so we have to take care of her. You can go out with me for a walk, a few little ones. They are already so big, just let them play in the alley and I will take care of them and they will be fine."

"Mom, I didn't expect the girl from this town to be so pretty. Girl, what do you think, let's go outside together."

"Here~~, then you wait, I'll go back to the next room."

Zhao Qian was indeed moved when she heard the polite greeting from the neighbor across the street. She usually only dared to put a few cents on her body. I went back to the house, put an extra dollar on me, and brought a few tickets with me.

Little did he know that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law outside the house were winking. This was a good opportunity to get in touch first. We had even discussed it before. If we could take the Luo family's daughter-in-law out, she would bleed a little at noon and treat her to a bowl of noodles outside. By the way, I talked to her about the family's housing difficulties.

When we are familiar with each other later, if we bring up the matter again, we will ask Uncle Wu from the courtyard to come forward and make peace with it.
