They could only starve to death if there was no highly-priced grain from the black market .
“Bring me there . I want to exchange for more goods,” Gu Qingyao said .
She still had about seven to eight years before the free generation . She must be prepared for it .
Mo Beihan took her to a relatively remote place in the city . There were many small alleys and the houses were very dilapidated . There were no people living around .
When it was about to arrive, Mo Beihan asked Gu Qingyao to take out the things . The two of them carried a basket each . Mo Beihan’s was much bigger, and all dumplings and wontons were placed inside .
The other sack was filled with various fine grains, with eggs placed on top .
There was also a sack with some coarse grains, then fruits, and some preserved fruits made by Gu Qingyao .
Mo Beihan carried a basket on his back and a sack in one hand . Gu Qingyao looked at him and suddenly wanted to laugh .
He looked like some extra rich guy .
Mo Beihan checked the surrounding area in advance and knew that there was no one nearby, so when he arrived at the small courtyard, he knocked on the door .
The one who opened the door was a very innocent young man . He looked honest as well from the way he smiled .
He opened the door and saw Mo Beihan was wearing thick clothes . He was even covered by a scarf for most of his face . He couldn’t see his face clearly, and he was still carrying two sacks in his hands . The boy’s eyes moved, showing a very simple smile that made him appear stupid!
“Comrade, who are you looking for?”
Looking at this young boy, Gu Qingyao felt that he looked very familiar to her .
‘Who is this?’
“We’re looking for your boss, Du Guobang!” Mo Beihan said .
The boy’s expression changed . It seemed like they knew his boss since they were able to call him by his name .
Mo Beihan said, “I have so many things in my hand, including fine grains, whole grains, meat and fruits, understand?”
The youth: “…”
They sold and purchased things here . There was nothing to hide since they knew the rules .
Mo Beihan and Gu Qingyao came in and the boy closed the door of the yard . He led the two of them into the hall where Du Guobang happened to be .
Mo Beihan put the two baskets on the ground and opened the cloth covering the baskets, revealing the frozen dumplings and wontons inside .
“These dumplings are homemade, all with white flour . There are ones with leek and egg stuffing, and cabbage and pork stuffing . They are very oily and tasty . You can cook a few and try it . This is the most suitable for… those who want to keep a low profile . They do not smell very meaty and the cooking time is short . ”
Not to mention the boy next to him, even Du Guobang was surprised by the number of dumplings . Not many people could get so many at once in this era .
Du Guobang looked at Mo Beihan and thought for a long time, but he could not figure out who he was .
Mo Beihan laughed, “Don’t worry . Since I can bring out so many things, it proves my background . You’re not able to find any trouble with me . Naturally, I know what business you have since I’m here to look for you . I won’t do anything to harm you as well . After all, those people behind you in your background are dealing with me!”
Du Guobang was stunned .
Then he laughed . The guy was a little rude but ambitious!
“You’re really straightforward . Since this is the case, let me just say it directly . The price I charge here is a bit cheaper than the black market . The price of fine grain is four yuan a catty . This dumpling and wonton are indeed good, but they all follow the price of fine grain . What do you think?”
Mo Beihan nodded and accepted the offer .
Du Guobang winked at the young man and asked him to get some dumplings and wontons to cook and inspect .
The boy took two dumplings and a small handful of wontons and left .
