After the first profit was made, a few more were sold.
Although most people in the city burned coal, there were still many people who knew the benefits of charcoal. Many people could tell at a glance that the quality of the charcoal was excellent.
Nowadays, the people in the city had some spare money in their pockets, especially the managers, leaders, or civil servants of some factories. They didn't need much money to eat, drink, and pee. After all, the prices of goods were low, so they all saved some money.
However, many things were supplied by tickets these days. Some things could not be bought with money or without tickets. There was no concept of saving money to buy a house or a car. With money and tickets in their pockets, they always thought about how to spend it.
Coincidentally, the weather was cold, so Qi Yang's charcoal became a necessity to solve the cold weather.
Even though it was indeed a little expensive, when Qi Yang claimed that he came from the countryside, the superiority of the city people immediately came.
Especially the men. Even though they felt that Qi Yang was selling it at a high price, they were unwilling to lower their heads and bargain with him. Those who came to ask about it bought some of it.
The next few portions were sold at a higher price than the first one. Basically, they were sold for 20 cents, 5 catties of food stamps, or half a catty of meat stamps for 10 catties of charcoal.
Fang Yu was extremely nervous at first. As she watched Qi Yang do business with the customers, she kept looking at people wearing red armbands.
However, after selling for a long time, he did not see anyone wearing a red armband.
Presumably, these people were mainly supervising the agricultural trade market or the supply and marketing cooperative. Although there was a lot of traffic at this street, it was not a critical place, so no one was watching and patrolling.
At the thought of this, she couldn't help but admire Qi Yang more.
This kid really had an idea.
If it were her, she would definitely run to the agricultural market or the supply and marketing cooperative. With this cart full of charcoal, she would probably be arrested before she could sell two sets!
Moreover, the first big sister who came to buy charcoal came back very quickly with a group of old ladies.
These people either didn't have enough coal to burn at home or couldn't stand the cold weather. They wanted to use their savings and tickets to exchange for some charcoal.
Although the sales of charcoal were very prosperous, Qi Yang did not dare to raise the price. After all, safety was the most important thing these days. It was more important to sell it quickly and eat meat with the money.
If they delayed for too long, it would be bad if they ran into the people patrolling the market.
With the addition of the fresh troops brought by Big Sister, the cart was quickly emptied, and the entire cart of charcoal was sold out!
There was also an old lady who came late and did not buy any at all. She stomped her feet with a regretful and helpless expression.
Qi Yang smiled.
"Auntie, if you really want to exchange for charcoal, I'll come back later!”
When the old lady and the eldest sister heard this, they immediately perked up.
"Young man, you still dare to come tomorrow?”
Qi Yang smiled.
"If you think this charcoal is good and still want it, I can send it directly to your house tomorrow!”
"That's great!"
The elder sister and auntie were overjoyed and quickly left their address for Qi Yang.
"Young man, if auntie wants thirty catties tomorrow, you can bring it!”
"Big Sister still has a few neighbors who want it. Unfortunately, you've already sold them out before they came. Tomorrow, send them over to this address. I don't dare to say that there are too many neighbors in my area.”
"Alright, then it's settled. I'll come again tomorrow!”
After saying that, Qi Yang and his eldest sister waved their hands and pushed the cart back.
Fang Yu turned around to look at the two aunties and whispered,"
"Do you still dare to come tomorrow?"
Qi Yang smiled lightly, his expression calm.
"Why don't you dare to come? You're a bastard who doesn't earn money!”
"Are you really going to send them home?"
"Why not! Wasn't it just a few more steps? Wasn't it much safer than trading on the streets? Besides, Big Sister patted her chest and guaranteed that she could eat two hundred catties of charcoal! 200 catties was half a cart. He didn't have to spend much effort to sell half of it!”
Hearing Qi Yang's words, Fang Yu could not help but nod repeatedly.
What this kid said was too reasonable.
Needless to say, he really had a business mind!
The two of them pushed the cart forward for a while. When Qi Yang saw that there was no one beside him, he stopped the cart and took out a handful of banknotes and various tickets from his pocket.
When the two of them counted, their hearts bloomed with joy.
In the morning, they sold a total of 3.55 yuan, two catties of meat coupons, two feet of cloth coupons, and ten catties of food coupons!
This was a bloody win!
The two of them happily pushed the handcart back. Seeing that they had reached the main road, Qi Yang turned the handcart around and headed straight east.
Fang Yu was stunned.
"Where are you going?"
Qi Yang grinned at her.
"Fulfill my promise!"
"Fulfill your promise?"
Fang Yu was stunned.
Soon, the two of them arrived near the eastern city.
There was a state-owned grocery store there, which sold raw pork, braised food, white flour buns, and so on.
Qi Yang took out two catties of meat and a few cents. He walked to the counter with his head held high and his chest puffed out. He smiled at the lady who was selling things.
"Big sister. Give me a pound of braised beef, ten steamed buns, and a pound of raw pork!”
The saleswoman was knitting a sweater with her head lowered when she heard Qi Yang's voice.
There weren't many people who could afford to buy so many things at once these days!
When she looked up, she saw a handsome young man in a black cotton-padded jacket standing in front of the counter with a warm smile on his face. His two black and bright eyes were looking at her.
This young man was really handsome!
She looked good when she smiled!
The saleswoman quickly got up and cut a pound of braised beef. Before wrapping it up, she even added two pieces.
Then, she gave Qi Yang ten big and white steamed buns and wrapped them in paper.
Nowadays, there were no shopping bags. Many people used baskets to store their things. If they asked the salesperson for a paper bag, they had to see if she was in a good mood.
However, the salesperson found Qi Yang especially pleasing to the eye today. She wrapped it up in paper and handed it to him without him saying a word.
In the end, the big sister raised her knife and cut a piece of pork for Qi Yang.
There was no need to weigh it. One jin was high!
"Thank you, Big Sister!"
Qi Yang smiled even more sincerely when he met someone who treated him well. He walked back with braised pork buns and raw pork.
He raised his hand and handed the braised beef and mantou to Fang Yu.
"Eat, it's still warm!"
Fang Yu took the steamed bun and beef. A fragrance assailed her nose, and she was instantly dumbfounded.
At this moment, the saleswoman at the back of the counter said with some envy,
"Silly girl, it's your blessing to have met such a good man. Eat quickly!”
Fang Yu raised her hand in a daze. She did not dare to eat the beef. She opened her mouth and carefully took a small bite of the steamed bun.
It was soft, fragrant, and tender. A sweet taste traveled along his tongue and taste buds all the way to his appetite.
It was filled with happiness!
In an instant, two streams of hot tears flowed down her eyes like a stream!
