The courtyard house, without the script of Sha Zhu.

It's important to understand that we haven't reached the difficult period yet.

Even pork right now only costs a few thousand yuan per kilogram.

Therefore, even after being temporarily depleted, the Jia family, with Jia Dongxu's meager income of just over twenty yuan, could still afford to eat steamed buns made from two kinds of flour.

Seeing that Cao Wei was really about to leave, the hunter immediately called out to stop him.

"Hey, young man, wait a minute..."

Cao Wei then stopped and looked at the hunter with a slightly indifferent expression.

That expression seemed to say something.

Do you think I'm stupid?

The hunter could only scratch his head and sigh, expressing his helplessness.

"Those guys who came to buy things offered too low a price. I can tell you're a smart person since you can recognize this thing and know its value."

"And then? You've already taken almost all of the most valuable part. Cooking this stuff takes a lot of time and effort, and it's not something the average person can handle well."

"Sigh, I understand. Just name your price..."

As if resigned to his fate, the hunter's tone became much more subdued.

"Eighty thousand."

"Are you kidding me?"

Almost instantly, the hunter's tone rose considerably.

Cao Wei, however, remained silent, simply staring at the other man. The hunter, his voice tinged with displeasure, hastily began to defend himself.

"But you know how much this thing can fetch in the hands of someone who knows about it. I'll compromise and ask for less, how about 170,000?"

"..."

After some haggling, the final price was set at 100,000.

Cao Wei had no choice; he urgently needed this deer leg, and it was of good quality and weighed about ten pounds. He was already preparing the ingredients for his graduation banquet. Otherwise, he could have negotiated the price down further.

After the money and goods were settled, Cao Wei continued to browse the black market.

He quickly identified one who seemed to be selling wild boar meat.

This time, the price wasn't so outrageous. I bought two wild boar knuckles and spent a total of 60,000 yuan.

Afterwards, just as Cao Wei was about to leave, he couldn't help but stop in his tracks.

He almost forgot; to be precise, he noticed that there seemed to be other parts on the wild boar meat.

This should be a wild sow, so there is a very high probability that it may have piglets.

You should know that Cao Wei now possesses a spatial farm, but he hasn't thought about what to plant yet.

If you buy a wild boar and raise it in your space, it can not only become a source of income in the future, but also ensure that you can have meat even during times of disaster.

After all, meat supplies were extremely scarce back then.

So Cao Wei couldn't help but squat down next to the hunter and speak in a low voice.

Do you have any piglets?

Upon hearing this, the hunter paused for a moment, then couldn't help but nod.

"Yes, but the price will be a little higher, since we still keep them at home."

"Price is not a problem. I'll take all the piglets you have."

Cao Wei also knew that these were not difficult times. In this day and age, if someone got a piglet, they would naturally raise it themselves. However, it was definitely not as good as raising it themselves if someone else raised it. After all, he had observed his own space farm. He had casually thrown in a few grains of rice, and they had even grown into rice paddies.

And they are growing incredibly fast; if you threw pigs in too, their growth rate would probably be quite impressive.

Upon hearing this, the hunter didn't hesitate and nodded.

Afterwards, Cao Wei wandered around for a while.

While buying a carton of wild eggs, I also asked the seller to reserve some fertilized eggs.

After that, Cao Wei did some simple tidying up in the black market.

After buying most of the materials he needed, he left the black market and casually tossed them into his spatial storage.

He had even made some preparations, since buying so many things on the black market could attract unwanted attention.

In reality, Cao Wei would indeed be targeted under normal circumstances, but things are different now.

The group he killed was, to be precise, also connected to the black market, which was one of their territories. It was the sudden disappearance of those ten or so people that caused another conflict within the black market over territory.

Both groups were currently locked in a battle for control of the black market territory, and naturally, neither wanted their subordinates to cause any trouble, which is why Cao Wei, who was there for the first time, was not targeted.

After arriving near Zhang He's house, Cao Wei took the items out of his spatial storage.

After knocking on the door, Zhang He's wife was momentarily stunned when she saw Cao Wei carrying so many things.

I came to my senses and realized that the other party had bought it themselves, and it just so happened that tomorrow was the other party's graduation banquet.

This made her frown, and she couldn't help but speak up unhappily.

"Xiao Wei, didn't Lao Zhang tell you to practice your skills today? Will he take care of these things?"

Cao Wei scratched his head with a sheepish grin and said nonchalantly, "Don't worry, Master's wife. I've been preparing for the past few days. Today is just a day of rustiness, so consider it a break. When we actually go to the battlefield tomorrow, I'll be in better shape."

"Glib-tongued."

Although his tone wasn't very pleasant, he didn't continue. Instead, he took Cao Wei's belongings and put them inside the house.

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Cao Wei finally chose to leave.

Today, Cao Wei also returned home early.

After eating, I went to bed early and then quietly went out the next morning.

Upon arriving at the black market, he found that the people he had arranged to meet had already arrived. He then took the two piglets (one male and one female) and the fertilized eggs with him, carried them out of the black market, turned a corner, and disappeared into an alley, placing them all into his spatial storage.

Not long after, several voices could be heard.

"Oh my god, this is a ghost! We were definitely coming this way."

"Ding Jiu, where the hell is everyone?"

After hurling insults at Ding Jiu, who seemed to be in charge of keeping watch, the group eventually left.

After a while, Cao Wei still hadn't shown up.

They didn't leave until those people came back to look at it again.

Cao Wei then chose to show himself.

After all, he wasn't stupid. He might have been lucky to escape being watched the first time, but the second time, especially since he came in the early morning, it would be a miracle if he wasn't.

Immediately afterwards, Cao Wei arrived at the kitchen of Fengzeyuan.

As soon as he entered the kitchen, Zhang He gave him a sharp rap on the head.

"You brat, you're late, you know? You even went and bought all that stuff yourself. I told you I'd take care of it for you. You're good with your hands, but the people there probably all have those kinds of things. You think you can outrun a bullet?"

Although his tone wasn't very friendly, the concern in his words warmed Cao Wei's heart, and he could only chuckle like Sha Zhu.

This left Zhang He with no other options.

Soon, when he finally arrived at the kitchen, he was surprised to see a familiar figure.
