Chapter 36 Wild Mandarin Duck

Good thing they are pretending.

But in conscience, there is no difference between them doing this disguise and not doing it.

You can only deceive strangers, not acquaintances.

There were a lot of people selling things in the woods, and there were also a lot of people buying things, but it was very quiet.

It's all a silent transaction.

Apart from the sound of footsteps, almost no voices could be heard.

"buy what?"

A young man in blue overalls stopped them, and Yi Chichi felt a thump in his heart. Is there anyone in the forest who cares about this?
Wang Nan was not surprised, and said softly, "Buy meat" as if he was prepared.

"A dime, over there."

He pointed to where they and the other man were, and then stretched out his hand towards Wang Nan.

Wang Nan took out a dime and handed it over.

Then, the young man stepped aside and continued to look in all directions and listen to all directions.

There were too many people there, Wang Nan said softly, "Where are we going?"

"The young man's side."

Yi Chichi raised his feet and walked towards the place where they were placed. The men were too fierce. There were several strong men, and their eyes were full of anger.

She is afraid.

The Anhao brothers and sisters gave her a relatively sufficient sense of security. The most important thing was that they were from the forestry farm and were far away from here.

The chance of being implicated after an accident is small.

As for the awkwardness of meeting acquaintances...

what is that?
As long as she can buy meat, she can pretend she doesn't know them.

Thinking of this, she calmly treated An Hao and the others as strangers.

An Hao didn't have such a good psychological quality. When she found out that the new customer was her, the little girl's face turned red with embarrassment and guilt, and she didn't dare to look at her at all.

An Li sighed inwardly when he saw this. It seemed that he couldn't bring Hao Hao next time because his mentality was too unstable.

Standing in front of Anhao, he held his bag in a low voice and came over, saying softly, "What do you want?"

That sounds like a lot of meat.

"Is there any pork?"

Yi Chichi started talking to him as if he was connecting with an underground party member.

"Have."

Anli told her that there were still about ten kilograms of pork, but it was all lean meat.

In addition, there are some smoked chicken and rabbit left, and there are also a few big bone sticks. If you want, you can take them with you.

Yi Chi finally realized that this was pointing at her Bao Yuan.

She didn't have any objection, but she was afraid that Wang Nan and the others would.

Turning their heads, she, Wang Nan and the others whispered to their ears.

"Do you want it?"

"want."

"Then can I buy three points for us?"

"Row!"

Then, Wang Nan and the others went to look out on their own initiative, while Yi Chichi followed Anli to see the goods and negotiate the price.

Nowadays, prices are low. A fried dough stick costs about 40 to 5 cents, a bowl of Yangchun noodles costs about 15 cents, and chowder noodles cost about 25 cents. These all require food stamps.

If you don’t use food stamps, the price will be higher.

The price of raw pork in the market is 7 cents per pound. It is still a big fat meat, and the price of lean meat is cheaper.

Because today's people are short of oil and water, fat meat is rich in oil and water, and lean meat such as pig heads and ears are not very popular with the public.

She rummaged through the remaining things, raised her eyes and said, "You name a price, and if it's suitable, I'll wrap it up for you."

Anli, "..."

This doesn't look like a rich person.

"I don't want tickets here, the price is relatively high."

"know."

"I'll give you 12 cents per catty for pork. Here it's almost jins and yuan. Smoked chicken costs a piece, three for ...you can count a few bones together at cents for a total of yuan. "

"Give."

Yi Chi Chi Ma Liu took out the money to pay the bill. An Li quickly took the money and put it in his pocket, "Where is your bag?"

"You won't give me the bag?"

Yi Chichi looked shocked. How could anyone buy something without giving him a bag? An Li was even more shocked than she was, "This is a cloth bag."

"???so?"

"I saved up my cloth stamps and paid for it to be done by someone else. You have to pay more."

"How many?"

He held out a hand and said, "Five dollars."

"Oh, then I don't want it."

It’s too expensive, smells bad, and is difficult to wash.

She turned around and commandeered a new wooden barrel that Wang Nan bought.

It's perfect for holding meat. The only drawback is that the target of this bucket is too big, so I'll have to be careful when I get out of the woods.

An Li was very sorry, why didn't he want it? He made a lot of money selling a cloth bag for five yuan.

Yi Chichi didn't know what he was thinking. After putting the meat in the bucket, she tried to lift it, but found that it was too heavy.

The wooden barrel is not light in nature, but once twenty pounds of meat is put in, the weight rises straight up.

When he was feeling worried, Wang Nan skillfully stuffed the mushrooms, chopsticks and other miscellaneous things he bought into it, and also pulled a few handfuls of grass to cover it.

"go!"

She turned around and left with the bucket. Yi Chichi quickly grabbed Ge Sujuan and followed her quickly.

After the goods were shipped, Anli and the others left in the opposite direction.

Soon, the two sides parted ways.

The business in the woods continues.

There are too many things, and I will definitely not go back to the market.

Besides, pigs have a strong smell, so to be on the safe side, after the three of them had a conversation, Wang Nan waited for them in the meadow next to the trail with their things.

Yi Chichi and Ge Sujuan went back to the market to pick up things from Aunt Ma and the others, and then came to join her.

Soon, the two settled Wang Nan.

"Don't say anything until we come."

Before leaving, Yi Chichi whispered.

"know."

Wang Nan nodded and waved his hands like he was shooing away flies, "Go back quickly."

"it is good."

After leaving the trail, Yi Chichi and Ge Sujuan turned their heads and looked around. They found no one nearby and quickly returned to the market.

Bai Chen and the others were not seen, and neither was Zhou Qiuyu.

When I arrived at Aunt Ma's stall and asked, I found out that Zhou Qiuyu had gone back with Liu Lan who had returned from the commune.

Also accompanying them were Bai Chen and the others.

Yi Chichi said "oh" and said to Aunt Ma, "Auntie, Juanzi and I will go back first."

"Go back."

Twenty minutes later, Yi Chichi and the others successfully reunited with Wang Nan.

It's just that her expression is a bit strange, similar to the feeling of being speechless and opening her eyes.

Yi Chichi was a little surprised when he saw this, "What's wrong?"

"Encountered a pair of wild mandarin ducks."

"A place like Caodianzi is wild..."

Before he could say the word "Yuanyang", Yi Chichi's eyes suddenly widened, "Is it the wild Yuanyang that I understand?"

Ge Sujuan laughed, "Otherwise, the meadow has no water and is not a wetland, so it is not suitable for mandarin ducks to live."

It's obvious that the wild mandarin duck in Wang Nan's mouth is a human.

Yi Chichi suddenly burst into gossip, "Have you not been discovered?"

"No."

She hid it well, but those two wild mandarin ducks were really bold, and she was afraid of them if they made any noise.

Afraid that they would be discovered.

"Do you recognize him?"

The expression on Wang Nan's face was a little tangled, as if there was something wrong.

"Really know each other?" Ge Sujuan looked shocked, and began to brainstorm who was so bold to go to the meadow to make wild mandarin ducks, or on a big market day with so many people coming and going.

"You also know each other. To be more precise, I should say that I have met him before."

As soon as Wang Nan said this, Yi Chichi had a bad feeling in her heart. She seemed to probably know who one of the wild mandarin ducks was.
