Chapter 8: Fixed Price

"This sewing machine is also sold?" Mi Xiaoxiao stared at the sewing machine with bright eyes.

Her mother had long wanted to buy a sewing machine, but Old Lady Mi didn't give her money. Her mother asked her for more than ten years, but she couldn't buy a sewing machine until she died.

If this sewing machine is sold...

The old lady said helplessly, "The train is not allowed to bring a sewing machine, so she can only sell it."

Furniture sewing machines are heavy items. If you want to take them to Beijing, you have to hire a truck to transport them. The journey is long and the freight is more expensive than the money of buying a sewing machine. Her son said that he would not want anything at home and sell them at a price.

After seeing the house, the old lady took Mi Xiaoxiao to the backyard again.

The backyard is larger than the front yard, with more than a dozen vegetable fields. A toilet and a chicken shed were built with broken bricks in the corner of the wall... The old lady said, "When my mother-in-law was a clean person and had a vicious habit. The broken bricks in this vegetable garden were all for her. When it rained, she would pick vegetables and go to the toilet, and she would not walk around with mud."

"That chicken stocking was made by my old man after my mother-in-law passed away. My mother-in-law disliked the taste of raising chickens. She didn't allow them to raise them before, so she just bought eggs at home."

There were also two chickens in the chicken coop.

If you want to raise more, the street office will not allow you to raise more. A family can raise up to two at most.

This yard is clean and tidy, inside and out.

Mi Xiaoxiao took a look at it at a glance.

I like it very much.

But the house prices are too high.

The old lady asked for 1,600 kilograms of fine grain, furniture, sewing machines, iron pots, hot pots, etc., for 180 yuan.

The grain and money were all available, but after taking it, she only had about 100 kilograms of fine grain left, and the price was 100% higher than the market price.

Mi Xiaoxiao looked embarrassed, "Auntie, the price is a bit high. I can't take out so much fine grain at once. Look, can it be cheaper?"

"Comrade Mi, my yard is the best built in this alley. You can't see such neat yards in my house wherever you go. Just talk about the broken bricks on the ground. My father-in-law spent dozens of dollars to buy them, and there were iron boilers, sewing machines and hot pots... In the supply and marketing cooperative, it was difficult to buy tickets. I think you are cheap, don't want your tickets, and you will give them all these bowls, chopsticks, basins and firewood for free. Comrade Mi, think about it carefully."

The old lady is a bargain price, not much for one or two meters.

However, what she told the truth is that iron boilers and sewing machines are both in short supply, and they can’t buy them without tickets. This ticket is very difficult to get. The old lady counts her 20% discount and doesn’t want to have tickets. Mi Xiaoxiao takes a big advantage.

And these things are also items needed by Mi Xiaoxiao.

Mi Xiaoxiao said pitifully, "Auntie, I really can't take out more than a thousand kilograms of fine grains. Otherwise, look at this, I will give you half of the fine grains and the other half of the money?"

"this……"

Aunt Zhang hesitated.

The daughter-in-law was born three days ago. The son asked for leave and served at home for three days, and then went to work. The daughter-in-law and the young grandson were at home without anyone taking care of him. The son called twice and urged her to go over quickly.

But she wanted a lot of fine grains, and the house could not be sold for a while, and she could not leave.

At this time, Liu Mingyuan advised her, "Miss Zhang, 1,600 kilograms of fine grain, not a small amount, and no one can take it out in the entire S city. Besides, if you and the old man carry the train, you will inevitably be targeted. It is better to take half of the grain and half of the money, and it is safer on the road."

Aunt Zhang felt like she was struck by lightning. Yes, more than a thousand kilograms of fine grain, who wouldn’t be jealous when she saw it?

What if someone is targeted, kill someone and rob food?

Aunt Zhang's hair stood up all over her body.

She said decisively, "Okay, I want five hundred kilograms of fine grain, and another three hundred and sixty yuan."

The supply and marketing cooperative is only 16 cents per pound of fine grain, but if you want a grain coupon, you still have to buy grain books. Without a grain coupon or a grain coupon, the price will be doubled. Aunt Zhang costs 360 yuan, but she doesn't ask for much.

This yard is so well built, it is worth the price.
