Especially the stalls next to them selling rice, flour, beans, and eggs, slling the braised dishes Gu Jin had on the wooden barrel, they couldn’t stop swallowing.
Today, besides Gu Jin’s stall, there were two other stalls selling at on this street.
But the best business was still Gu Jin’s; after the first middle-aged woman bought at, they didn’t have a mont to spare for the next two hours.
When Gu Jiajie finally stopped, he plopped down on the ground, letting out a deep breath.
"So tired!"
Even as he said this, his eyes were incredibly bright.
Even Liu Pingyuan beside him was the sa, looking at the wild boar at spread out on the fertilizer bags on the ground, with about seven to eight pounds left.
Neither of them had expected that wild boar at would be so popular on the black market, even at the "sky-high" price of three yuan.
Three yuan was really a lot for them, yet people were still willing to spend money on it.
Gu Jiajie and Liu Pingyuan exchanged a glance, eyes filled with excitent only they understood.
They exchanged another glance before looking in sync at Gu Jin, who was serving the braised dishes to people.
All the braised pig head at was sold out, and there were so braised pig innards left. Those who said they’d return with bowls had either co back or hadn’t; she decided to wait a little longer.
Sensing the two gazes on her, she placed the money she had collected into the floral cloth bag beside her.
In just over two hours, the floral cloth bag was already bulging.
Gu Jin looked up at her cousin and Liu Pingyuan, then glanced at the wild boar at in front of them and smiled, "Business is good, looks like we can head ho in less than half an hour."
Gu Jiajie rubbed his hands and asked with a silly smile, "Heh heh... Xiao Jin, are we coming back tomorrow?"
"Yes! Of course, we’re coming; this is just the beginning. We still have enough wild boar at at ho to sell for several days. Let’s sell it all first."
Hearing this, Gu Jiajie and Liu Pingyuan both burst out laughing.
Sure enough, in less than half an hour, all the wild boar at and Gu Jin’s braised pork were sold out.
The three of them didn’t linger on the black market and left on their bicycles after selling everything.
When they got ho, it was still two or three hours before dawn.
At the entrance of the Gu Family’s ho, Liu Pingyuan stopped his bicycle and said to the Gu family siblings, "It’s so late. I’m going ho to sleep."
Gu Jin was already pushing the door open to walk into the courtyard. Hearing this, she turned back, "Co in first, let’s settle today’s money before you go ho."
Upon hearing this, Gu Jiajie and Liu Pingyuan pushed their bicycles into the courtyard.
Gu Jin carried the floral cloth bag into the kitchen, "Everyone at ho is asleep. Let’s go to the kitchen."
There was no electric light in the kitchen, but she skillfully found a candle and lit it.
The dining table inside hadn’t been cleared. Gu Jin walked to the table, and when Gu Jiajie and Liu Pingyuan ca in, she dumped all the money from the floral cloth bag onto it.
There was several tis more than what they had made from selling wild boar at before. The colorful bills filled the table, and two coins rolled to the floor.
They happened to roll to Liu Pingyuan’s feet. He picked up the coins and put them back on the table.
Seeing the table full of money, his eyes were a bit dazed.
Gu Jiajie even cursed under his breath, expressing his inner excitent.
"Don’t just stand there, co help count the money. I can’t do it all by myself."
Having the experience of counting the wild boar money before dinner, Gu Jiajie pulled Liu Pingyuan to sit at the table and taught him how to sort and stack the bills together.
