Chen Zhengyu took it and replied," I can't move so many pumpkins by myself. I found a few brothers to carry them here. I felt that Hou Ge didn't want to see them, so I sent them away first."”
"Yes, it's good to have more people. We can take care of each other. There are a few old cannons who are not well-behaved these two days.”Hou San reminded with concern.
"Don't worry, what's the big deal about a few old cannons? I have a brother who crawled back from the battlefield with a pile of dead bodies. Such a long military thorn, directly putting it in, hehe.”
Chen Zhengyu gestured and replied indifferently.
"Then I'm relieved. After all, you're safe. Our deal will last long in the future, right?”Hou San said.
"Yes, I can't guarantee that there will be more pumpkins in the future, but it won't be a problem for me to get eight or ten at a time.”
Chen Zhengyu waved his hand heroically.
But in reality, he had already made up his mind that this would be the last deal with Hou San.
He didn't even plan to come to this black market.
In the future, if he wanted to exchange for something, he could go to another black market.
Unfortunately, he had just arrived in the city and had no one to use. Otherwise, it would be safest for him to hide behind the scenes.
To put it in words, a gentleman would not stand under a dangerous wall.
"366 pounds, I'll give you 370 pounds. I'll still give you six cents from last time, which is exactly 22.20 yuan. What do you think?”
After the other person weighed the pumpkin, Hou San entered the rhythm of discussing business.
"No problem, Hou Ge is generous."
What could Chen Zhengyu think?
Of course, he stood and watched.
"Do you still want the wheat you promised last time? Exactly ten catties." Hou San said.
"Of course. My big brother was so happy when he heard that I could get wheat to be made into hawthorn.”Chen Zhengyu immediately said.
"Alright, what about the rest? Change it all to flour?"
"Could it be that Hou Ge has other good things?”Chen Zhengyu's expression changed.
"Pork is two yuan per catty, so I can give you three to five catties at most. Canned fruit is one yuan each.”Hou San said directly.
Hearing that there was meat, Chen Zhengyu almost drooled.
Originally, he wanted to go somewhere else to see if he could meet a meat seller. He didn't expect Hou San to have one.
He could even get canned fruit. It was obvious that he had a lot of power.
Moreover, the price Hou San offered was not outrageous.
The meat on the market cost 60 to 70 cents, and it was still available every day.
As for buying five catties in one go, he could forget about it.
If Chen Zhengyu didn't mind the trouble and slowly collected some meat tickets on the black market, then the whole family would take turns to buy meat. It should be cheaper than this price.
But that was obviously impossible.
Therefore, even if Hou San's price was a little expensive, he didn't care.
"Yes, five catties of pork and seven cans of fruit.”Chen Zhengyu said without hesitation.
"Including the wheat, it's a total of twenty-two yuan.”Hou San calculated.
"Hou Ge, this is 5.40 yuan. Add that 20 cents and buy 7 catties of flour.”Chen Zhengyu took out a handful of change from his pocket and counted out 5.4 yuan. There was less than one yuan left, and he carefully put it back into his pocket.
"Sure."
Hou San didn't mind using money to trade.
With that, the deal for tonight was considered complete.
"Hou Ge, can you help me cut the meat into five portions? When the time comes, I'll get a few brothers to bring it home directly to save trouble.”Chen Zhengyu suddenly said.
"That's easy to say. I guarantee that I'll give you the same amount.”Hou San nodded.
A few minutes later, Chen Zhengyu left with the tightly wrapped meat, flour, wheat, and canned food.
However, when he exited the alley and saw that there was no one around, he directly put the things into the farm warehouse. Then, he pretended to have just finished peeing and tied his belt to blend into the crowd.
On the other side, Hou San closed the door and entered the house.
"Old Zhuang, what do you think of that kid?”? "What a cunning kid." Old Zhuang thought for a moment and said.
"He's not just cunning. This kid is smart. I tried to test him several times, but he stopped me without batting an eyelid. In the end, he seemed to want me to help him split the meat, but in fact, he was telling me that he had five people and that I shouldn't have any bad ideas.”Hou San chuckled.
"It could also be a bluff." Old Zhuang said.
"Not necessarily. This pumpkin weighs about 40 pounds. One or two people definitely can't carry it. If we were to use a tricycle, it would have been blocked by those old cannons long ago.
Therefore, the five people he said should not be a pretense. This kid was quite interesting.”Hou San looked impressed.
"What's wrong? You like it?"
"A little. There's no shortage of people who dare to fight and fight these days. There's also a lot of people who stab without saying a word. But look, how many of these people can die a good death? A truly intelligent person would always be cautious and would rather hide his stupidity than fight for a moment. As the old saying goes, a dog that bites doesn't bark.”
"So you specially took out meat and canned food at the end?”
"If you want to catch a big fish, how can you take the bait if you don't throw some bait? Let's wait a little longer."
Hou San's last words were meaningful, so Old Zhuang didn't say anything else.
How many people in their line of work were kind?
Chen Zhengyu strolled around the black market again. He did not find anything worth exchanging, so he chose to leave.
At this moment, there were still three old pumpkins lying in his game farm. He could take them home to eat.
However, as soon as he walked out of the black market, he sensed someone following him.
Fortunately, there were only two.
After walking for a while, Chen Zhengyu stopped when he saw that there was no one nearby.
"The two of you have found the wrong person, haven't you? I really don't have any money on me."
Chen Zhengyu vaguely recognized that these two people were from the group that wanted to snatch his eggs earlier.
However, for some reason, only two came.
"Who said we were going to rob them?" One of them, an old man in his thirties, sneered.
"Then what do you mean?"
"You're a little too arrogant. Why didn't you leave after sending the egg away? Why did you have to loiter in front of us? Are you looking down on us?
"How can I? I'm just strolling around.”
Chen Zhengyu was stalling for time. He had to see if the other party really only had two people.
"Why are you talking to him? Beat him up and strip him naked."
Another old man said as he took out a steel pipe about 30 centimeters long from his sleeve. The handle was wrapped with hemp rope.
Chen Zhengyu's eyes narrowed when he saw the other party making a move. His right hand subconsciously drooped down, trying his best to block the other party's gaze.
When he saw the other party charging towards him, he raised his hand and threw something.
"Pa!"
Just as the old cannon approached, the egg exploded on his face, directly blurring his eyes.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Chen Zhengyu rushed forward. His left hand grabbed the other party's wrist that was holding the steel pipe, and his right hand mercilessly smashed into the other party's left neck.
This punch was accurate and ruthless.
The old cannon did not even have the chance to react. His body went limp and he fell to the ground.
At the same time, Chen Zhengyu snatched his steel pipe and rushed towards another old cannon who had yet to react.
Only then did the other party whip his weapon anxiously.
