Chapter 105 Explanation
Chapter 105 Explanation
Seeing that Gu Wan went out of her way to explain it to her, Xu Wenyin no longer thought about whether Master Fang and Gu Wan knew each other.
There is not much meat on rabbit and pheasant, and they are not as delicious as pork!
But Gu Wan had already comforted her, so she couldn't hold back her anger. She put aside the unhappiness that the aunt had brought her just now, and instead echoed Gu Wan's words:
"That's right, let's go back and have a big meal."
The two of them planned to go to the black market now to pick up the things they had ordered from Monkey. Then they would go back early because it was too hot outside and they would easily get sunburned if they wandered around outside.
When Gu Wan and Xu Wenyin arrived at the black market, Monkey was biting a piece of dogtail grass and bragging to another vendor.
Although he was smiling, he kept glancing at the door out of the corner of his eyes.
His furrowed brows proved that he was not as relaxed as he appeared to be.
It was not until the voices of Gu Wan and Xu Wenyin appeared at the door that Monkey's eyes lit up, and his heart was relieved. He felt relaxed all over.
He said something to the person next to him and pulled the foxtail grass out of his mouth with one hand.
Then he trotted towards the two of them.
"Sisters, oh sisters, you are finally here."
This sweet-talker, if you don’t know, you might think that this is his sister, and the people around him all looked over here.
There is no other way. I have brought so many goods this time. If Gu Wan and the others really don’t want them today, it will be really troublesome to send them back.
The world is unsafe nowadays. Carrying so many things will attract attention. If they happen to meet someone who doesn't care about his life and comes to rob them, they dare not make a big fuss or call the police.
"Didn't we agree to come over after dinner? I shouldn't have kept you waiting for long, did I?" Gu Wan looked at Monkey in confusion, not understanding why a salesman like him was in such a hurry.
Isn’t it said that whoever has something in his hand is the boss?
But I don’t know that she wants a lot of things. No matter when, when it comes to big customers, there is no such thing as being reserved.
"Oh, I just wanted to show you what I brought. Are you satisfied? I'll go ask my friend. I'll get everything you want, girl."
His tone sounded like he was seeking credit.
Gu Wan raised one of her eyebrows. She didn't expect that everything would be gathered so quickly. Now she became a little anxious.
There was no other way. There were so many things in her space, but because there was no fire, she could only watch them. She had to eat boiled vegetables and shredded sweet potato rice every day. Wasn’t that worrying?
The monkey led Gu Wan and Xu Wenyin to the corner, where a person was already standing. Behind him was a small pile of things covered with a sack, so it was impossible to tell what they were.
The man first looked at Gu Wan and Xu Wenyin with his sharp tiger eyes, and then turned his gaze to the monkey.
"Girls, this is my brother. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't be able to get all my stuff together."
Neither side introduced their names. After Monkey finished speaking, both sides nodded lightly. They also knew that this was not the place to reminisce and exchange pleasantries.
After saying a few words, he started to check the things. Fortunately, Monkey had prepared an extra backpack, otherwise it would be difficult to take these things back.
Before leaving, Gu Wan thought that Xu Wenyin wanted to eat pork, so it would be best not to take out the meat in her space unless absolutely necessary.
Moreover, she always felt that she was not at ease holding things that did not belong to her.
So it’s better to buy it.
I thought that since Monkey was active in the black market, he might have some channels.
"By the way, I want to ask you, do you know where I can buy meat?"
Monkey was stunned when he heard Gu Wan ask this. He wanted to ask if he should go to the farmer's market or the meat processing plant to buy meat.
But when he saw Gu Wan's eyes, he swallowed the words back.
He slapped his forehead, looking stupid!
How could someone not know such a common sense question? If they are asking, it must be because it is not in those two places!
When Gu Wan saw him suddenly slap his forehead, she looked at him with wide eyes in suspicion. Is this guy stupid?
No way? No way?
"Hey, I just lost my mind."
So what did you think of? Gu Wan wanted to ask, but she didn't ask in the end. She just pursed her lips and waited for him to continue, but she was wondering in her heart whether this man was reliable.
"If you want to buy food, meat, and other things, you have to go to Brother Hua."
"Brother Hua?" Gu Wan looked at him puzzledly, waiting for him to continue.
Seeing that she didn’t even know Brother Hua, Monkey glanced at her with disdain and began to explain things to her.
"Brother Hua is Qian Wenhua, the boss of this street. In addition to managing this street, he also runs some small businesses. Some people who don't want to show up will sell their things directly to Brother Hua.
Brother Hua will sell it outside, and Brother Hua has a wide network of contacts, so he has a lot of rare things, even more than the supply and marketing cooperatives outside. "
As the monkey spoke, his face was full of longing and admiration.
Gu Wan didn't quite understand his feelings, so she just asked calmly:
"Then how can we contact that Brother Hua?"
If possible, she still wanted to buy some meat to take back. After all, it was not easy to come to the county. Although she didn't particularly want to eat meat, if she had a meat dish, it would be better than eating boiled beans, right?
Monkey nodded with his chin towards the two people who were talking against the wall at the door and said, "Well, if you want to buy something, just contact them and tell them what you want to buy."
His chin nodded in the direction of the door.
Generally speaking, unless the items are large or numerous and precious, it is not worth it for Qian Wenhua to receive them personally; the people around him can handle it.
Gu Wan nodded. Xu Wenyin had previously told her about the greatness of this street. With such powerful people around, this place should be safe, right?
"what happened?"
When Xu Wenyin saw Gu Wan talking to Monkey just now, she deliberately moved aside and didn't come over until Monkey left with another stranger.
"I just asked Monkey, and he said that Brother Hua, the manager of this street, also does business. Maybe he has some meat. I want to go ask him."
Xu Wenyin's eyes lit up. "How could I have forgotten that? Yes, Brother Hua also sells meat here, but I don't know if he still has any."
"Come on, let's go and ask."
Each of them carried a basket of things on their backs. At the bottom were some pots and other things that Gu Wan bought from the black market, and on top were canned food and cakes bought from the supply and marketing cooperative.
"Hello, I want to ask if there is any meat left today?"
Gu Wan was pulled by Xu Wenyin towards the two young men standing against the wall, and the people over there quickly noticed the two people.
When they came over, they had stopped talking and their posture was casual, but if you looked closely, you could still see the wariness in their eyes.
