Chapter 196 Goodbye Xiaomei
"I can't help it. Food is in short supply now. It would be nice to make a pot every day and sell it." This is the food that her family saved by frugality.

If it wasn't for making money and not affecting future business, she wouldn't want to do this rice tofu business anymore.

Because of this business, her man has to go to the black market every day before dawn, just to buy food. Not to mention the hard work, the money he earns is not as much as before.

"You're lucky today. If you come half an hour later, I'll have nothing here." Xiaomei spread her hands and said.

"Your business here is still as good as ever." Jian Qingling replied sincerely.

"What's so good, the price of food is getting more and more expensive now, and you may not be able to buy it." She used to earn one yuan and fifty cents for a pot of rice tofu, but now it has doubled, but the cost is high.

The people who came to her were all acquaintances, and she was too embarrassed to raise the price every few days, but what could she do, she would lose money if she didn't raise the price.

"Then hurry up and fill that pot up for me." Jian Qingling was afraid that she would be late, and when someone came over, what if she insisted on keeping some of it?
"Then you two wait here, I'll get it for you." After Xiaomei said, she picked up two pots and left.

"I'll go there with you, and I'll tell you something by the way." Jian Qingling followed behind Xiaomei.

"What do you want to tell me?" Xiaomei asked as she moved her hands.

"Xiaomei, I ask you to help me process [-] pots of rice tofu, the kind for which the processing fee is paid, can you finish it in one day?" Jian Qingling asked in a low voice.

"Yes, do you have food?" Xiaomei looked at Jian Qingling in surprise.

"Yes, how many catties of rice do you need for twenty pots?"

"About sixty catties, are you really willing to use so much rice to make rice tofu?" For now, sixty catties of grain is not a small amount.

"Of course, otherwise, why would I ask you? It's not like you don't know that I like to eat. It would be even better if you make cold noodles, why? You think I'm lying to you?"

Seeing her disbelief, Jian Qingling thought it was funny. However, someone else might not do such a thing, but who made her like to eat it?
"It's not impossible to make cold noodles, but it's time-consuming. At least it will take two days to make it. However, do you have flour?" Since Xiaoling is willing to take out all the rice, if there is flour, she should Will you take it out too?

"Underestimate me, I'll go out and ask my man to bring over sixty catties of rice and fifty catties of flour." Jian Qingling turned to look for Mu Ziteng without waiting for Xiaomei to reply.

"Hey, I still haven't finished asking." Xiaomei was thinking about whether to chase her out, but seeing that the work under her hand hadn't been finished, she could only give up, and it wouldn't be too late to talk about it later.

When Xiaomei came to the small room with a pot of rice tofu and a pot of condiments, Jian Qingling was the only one present here.

She asked curiously: "Is your man really going to get food?"

"Yes, don't worry, he will come over later." Jian Qingling pointed to the place beside her and said, "Let's sit here and wait for a while."

Xiaomei could only sit down according to her words.

"By the way, Xiaomei, you can make twenty pots of rice tofu today. I'll come and get them at around [-]:[-] tonight, is that okay?" Just after I got them, I went to sell grain.

"Okay, I can make it for you if I rush to work, but for cold noodles, I can't make it until the day after tomorrow."

"Don't worry about cold noodles, it's really hard work for you Xiaomei." Jian Qingling thanked her, stood up and gave her a hug.

Xiaomei was embraced by Jian Qingling who was overly enthusiastic, and her face suddenly became hazy.

Jian Qingling poked Xiaomei's face as if she was surprised, and jokingly said: "Isn't it just two women hugging? What's the matter, your face is as red as a red apple, haha."

People in this era are so pure that even a hug from a friend can make her blush.

Xiaomei didn't answer her words, she just hadn't been hugged by anyone other than her man, so she didn't know how to react for a while.

"By the way, how much are these?" Jian Qingling pointed to the things on the table and asked.

"Ten dollars."

Jian Qingling took out a big unity card and handed it to Xiaomei.

Xiaomei took the money and said, "Xiaolin, do you have a way to get food?"

I knew she would ask, so I smiled and asked, "Why? Do you want to buy food from me?"

Xiaomei nodded, and said without concealment: "If you can get food, I would like to ask you to help me get a batch of food. You have also seen that because there is no food here, I only make one rice tofu every day." Basins are simply not enough to sell."

"Okay, how much grain do you want to buy? I'll find a way to get it for you." The grain in her space is enough for their family to feed for many years, besides, isn't it still growing in the future?Don't be afraid that there will be no food to eat in the future.

"You agree?" Xiaomei was overjoyed, "Then can you get me five hundred catties of rice and five hundred catties of flour?" Xiaomei looked at Jian Qingling with some anxiety, fearing that she would buy so much at once, She can't buy it.

Now that there is a shortage of food, she is also afraid that she will not encounter such a good opportunity in the future, but if her family buys so much food at one time, their family will have to pay for it.

"Sure! When I come to pick up the rice tofu at night, I'll bring you some food by the way. But Xiaomei, you should know the current price of food, right? The quantity you want is quite large, and the price is not low." It would cost three to four thousand yuan. Can Xiaomei's family afford that much money?

"Don't worry, I won't pay on credit." Xiaomei smiled and patted Jian Qingling's shoulder, "The price of rice and flour is the same now, and it costs about [-] yuan on the black market. What do you think of this price?" It will become more and more expensive. If Xiaoling is not satisfied, she can accept a catty of food plus a couple of cents, but not more.

"Okay." It's a few cents more than selling it on the black market.

"Snack Buckle"

"It must be my man." Before Xiaomei stood up, Jian Qingling stood up and said.

When he opened the door, he saw Mu Ziteng holding a bag in one hand, and Jian Qingling quickly moved aside.

"Where is your family scale? Let's weigh it." Mu Ziteng put the grain on the ground and asked Xiaomei.

"Wait, I'll get it right away." Xiaomei got up, went to a corner of the back bedroom and took out a scale.

The three of them worked together to weigh the two bags of grain, and the amount was two catties more than what Jian Qingling had said before. This was because the two of them were afraid that it would not be enough, just in case.
