The reborn peasant girl has space for farming

Chapter 945 Cotton Business
"Your eyes light up when it comes to doing business. Cotton, do you have a supply?"

Luo Bing also wanted to ask Bai Meixi what he meant first. The supply of goods in her hands was often unexpected. Maybe she could really get a batch of first-class products back, allowing him to reach a higher level in his industry.

"How much do you want? If the quantity is not large, Pu Hai had a black market before and sold these things."

Bai Meixi did plant a cotton field in the space, but it was only two acres. Aunt Liu said that the eldest sister and the second sister had grown up and had to learn to pick cotton, spin yarn, weave and make clothes, so they set up a separate land. Such a place.

Now there are small cotton balls in the cotton, which can be picked in a few days. If Luo Bing doesn't want a lot, it can be given to him first.

"The price on the black market is too high, not to mention that I need 2000 kilograms. Even the black market can't get that much."

Luo Bing also knew about the black market. He also went there a few days ago to explore the situation. Now the black market is very strictly inspected. A lot of things on the black market have withered away. The only things that can be traded are tea, grain and oil. , all of which are benefits issued by good work units, and they end up in the black market in exchange for money.

But things like cotton, which are necessary for daily life, are not enough for them to use themselves, so it is impossible to sell them.

"How much does it cost to collect a pound of cotton over there? I don't have that much now, but if it lasts half a month, I can even out seven to eight hundred pounds."

Bai Meixi calculated the cotton yield in the space and found that the yield from two acres of land was about 1000 kilograms. In addition to the part for his own use, he could give some to Luo Bing.

"You can get so much cotton! Is it true!"

Luo Bing was very excited when he heard this amount. Nowadays, strict investigations are being carried out everywhere, people are panicked, and disasters have occurred. The output of cotton has been greatly reduced in the past two years, and it can no longer meet the supply on the market. The black market can at least It sells for 1.5 yuan per pound, and even if it is purchased in large quantities, it will not be lower than 1.2 yuan.

"With so much money, when I paid for my dowry before, a pound of cotton only cost seventy or eighty cents at most."

Bai Meixi rarely paid attention to the prices of cotton and fabrics during this period. Unexpectedly, in just two or three years, the prices had nearly doubled.

"You have to buy it with a ticket at that price, but now the supply of cloth tickets and cotton tickets has been reduced by at least half. Even if you have money, you can't buy it. How can the price on the black market not be high? It's still valuable without price. city."

Luo Bing asked Bai Meixi to give him all the cotton in his hand. He could buy it at a price of 1.2 yuan, and the more of this kind of cotton, the better. Even if it was four to five thousand kilograms, he could collect it.

"That's fine. Once I have all the supplies, I will send a message to your second aunt, and we will hand it over in Puhai then."

Bai Meixi doesn't want to walk too close to home, lest she run into acquaintances. Puhai is the safest place in her heart. Even if something happens, there are many ways to think of it.

"No problem, I'm waiting for your good news. In addition to cotton, fabrics and even silk are in short supply recently. If you can get them, you'd better get more of them. The prices of these things are pretty good now. Plus, we've been hit hard this year. If there is a disaster, the price of these things must be higher.”

Luo Bing has made a resurgence recently, and the little stars have quickly become a prairie fire. Most of the contacts that were originally scattered are gradually gathering together. Everyone is secretly trying to do some big business to get through this special period.What's more, demand is always greater than supply in the market. As long as they can get good things, there will always be people willing to pay a high price.

"I can't get silk or fabric. That's too difficult."

Bai Meixi felt that Luo Bing had imagined herself in a miraculous way. To produce fabrics and silk by yourself, you would need looms and spinning machines. Although these two things are not difficult to make, the production is extremely slow and the quality is low if they are all done by hand. , especially silk, there is no way to weave it yourself.

"If you don't have silk, you can also use silk. There are factories in Puhai that can make it. However, the quality of silk has dropped significantly in the past two years. Many of them have turned yellow and cannot be easily weaved. However, places where silk is needed have higher quality requirements. Extremely high, I’m having a headache now.”

Bai Meixi remembers every word Luo Bing said clearly. It can't be done in silk space, but it can be solved with silk, as long as it can get silkworms and mulberry trees.

After Bai Meixi returned to the space, she immediately found Aunt Liu and wanted to ask her if she knew how to extract silk. If she knew how, they could do it.

"I know how to raise silkworms, but extracting silk. This job requires a lot of skills, and I can't learn it. However, one of my sisters-in-law used to raise silkworms at home. I heard that every household in their village used to make a living by extracting silk. She will definitely do it, and my brother has been in poor health, and her family also needs money."

Aunt Liu thought about all the people in her family and finally found someone who could raise silkworms and extract silk. Moreover, her sister-in-law was a good character and was willing to work hard. I heard that their family made money, and she always wanted to Go her way.

If Bai Meixi could give her some work, it would be a great help to their family.

"I have to think about these things carefully. Let's take good care of the cotton in the fields first. After harvesting the cotton this time, we will make some new quilts for everyone and some new cotton-padded clothes for the children. When we go home during the New Year can wear."

Bai Meixi looked at the white cotton balls in the field, as if she had seen an income of thousands of dollars. Recently, she had very little private money left, and she was making money every day. She had to make a few big sums of money. .

After Bai Meixi made up her mind, she took the explosives and went to the border door. Now, several doors in the space lead to Puhai, her hometown, the Gobi Prison and the border area. Every one of them cannot be moved. Every door must be used to its full potential.

Bai Meixi had never used explosives before and now she could only estimate its weight. She first took a small bag and threw it into the gap between the rocks, then inserted a lead into it, closed the door of the space, and placed it on the door. There was a distance of more than one meter before igniting the fire.

"Bang! Boom!" There was a loud noise outside the door, and even the door in the space shook slightly. Bai Meixi only dared to open the door after confirming that the noise outside had stopped, and people rushed in from the space. There are a lot of small stones that can be used to build sheep pens.

Bai Meixi found that her method worked. Now there was a gap in the pile of rocks and she could see outside. The explosion just now did not attract anyone's attention, which was good news for Bai Meixi.

Unfortunately, the gunpowder she had just placed was too little, and the big stone blocking the door was not much smaller. Bai Meixi would not be able to get out for a while, and she would have to use the patience of a foolish old man to move mountains.
