Chapter 40

to town.“Either tell the village head to drag the pig down and have it divided among the villagers, or find someone else.” Ning Yuan added.She and he, this 'couple in adversity', will still have to li.........

Unlike Rong Zhaonan, Ning Yuan was in an especially good mood today.

Because she's having a particularly smooth day!

First, she took some grain tickets and fifty cents to buy two steamed buns filled with meat and a bowl of meat congee. After eating, her stomach was full.

At that time, the steamed buns at the state-owned hotel were full of meaty aroma. They didn't have the flavor of farmed pigs like they did decades later.

Apart from being a bit fatty, there's nothing wrong.

The meat powder cooked with pickled bamboo shoots, fermented black beans, garlic and meat is delicious and appetizing. She ate up all her two ounces of noodles in a flash.

Then, while eating noodles at the state-run hotel, I heard the chef telling the cashier that the county committee's reception center is going to host a banquet soon.

Because a sudden inspection team arrived in the provincial city yesterday, the county has to make temporary arrangements for reception.

The county officials assigned the task of preparing local specialties for a reception, which came as a sudden surprise. This put the chefs and vegetable procurement team in a difficult situation, as many specialty ingredients needed to be ordered in advance.

Ning Yuan's eyes lit up instantly, wiped her mouth, and immediately leaned in to inquire about the signature dishes. "What are they like Does smoked wild boar count"

Since my aunt got hurt, she hasn't gone to see her once.

Her mother did write her a few letters, scolding her harshly, and she cut off her monthly allowance of two dollars and fifty cents. She didn't even bother to open the letters anymore.

From now on, she's got to earn her own living!

The cashier eyed her up and down, puzzled. "How come, young lady, your family can still get smoked wild boar meat"

These days, if a village manages to hunt a wild boar, it wouldn't be sold. Instead, the meat would be given to all members of the production team to improve their meals.

Ning Yuan smiled and opened her basket: “This isn’t poverty, I just took the wild boar meat that was divided out and smoked it to sell for some money to help supplement the family.”

"Wow, there's a whole lot of smoked meat! Maybe 20 to 30 pounds!"

She looked at Ning Yuan, thin and petite. With a fair complexion, big bright eyes, she seemed like a kind and honest girl.

She thought for a moment: "Okay, the county committee is responsible for purchasing. I'll ask my nephew for you."

Anyway, I can help my nephew solve this urgent problem.

Ning Yuan was overwhelmed with gratitude and sat honestly at the state-owned hotel, deciding not to go anywhere else.

She waited for Sister Zhang, who worked at the county committee, to get off work at four o'clock. Then, she carried a basket and followed her to the county committee guest house.

The county party committee guesthouse is already the best guesthouse in the whole county town. It's a white, four-story brick building that looks clean and tidy.

The first floor is for dining, and the second floor and above are for living.

Chapter Sister instructed Ning Yuan to wait at the back door, while she herself entered the guest house.

A man in his thirties, dressed in a blue work shirt, soon came out.

"Chapter Two, it's this girl right here, she brought some wild boar jerky, you see if you want any" Big Sister Zhang pointed at Ning Yuan.

The man known as Zhang'er sized Ning Yuan up and gestured for her to open the basket. "I need to take a look at the ingredients first. Smoked meat, if it's not done right, will either be overly strong-smelling or moldy."

Ning Yuan immediately opened her basket for him and said, "Look, these were all just smoked these days. They definitely won't go bad. I took very good care of them."

Chapter 2 took out a piece of smoked meat to look at. The white part was glistening with oil, firm and tough when pinched. The lean meat was dark red and emitted a smoky aroma.

He took out his small knife again and cut off a piece, putting it in his mouth. He nodded in satisfaction: "The meat tastes good."

He actually doesn't like smoked meats that are too dry or too oily, they don't taste good when fried.

"I'll take all the meat here, how much is it per pound" Zhang Er carried the weighing scale.

Ning Yuan pondered for a moment: "State-run fresh pork is currently 9.2 yuan per jin (0.5 kg) for the first grade, and 8.7 yuan per jin for the second grade. My wild boar meat is rare, so it should at least be considered first grade. With 45 jin of fresh meat, you can get around 30 jin of smoked meat."

"Even if we just consider the cost of the meat, it would come to forty-one yuan and four mao. I'll give you forty yuan plus thirty kilograms of national ration tickets, how about that" Ning Yuan asked.

State-owned meat required a voucher and ration coupons to purchase, only then could you get a good cut of meat at 92 cents per pound.

On the black market, if you don't have ration coupons to buy good meat, the price at least doubles to two pieces, and you may not even be able to buy it.

Besides, this is rare wild boar meat. Ning Yuan felt she was being quite conscientious.

Chapter Two was taken aback: "Well, you little girl are quite good at arithmetic, your calculations are excellent. But these national ration tickets are not easy to get. And why do you need so many You're not from the countryside, are you"

National ration tickets were only for workers on business trips. Besides, rural residents weren't from the city, so they wouldn't need ration tickets anyway. It's all about national ration tickets.Reading novel app.Download the Starry Reading app to read the latest chapters, ad-free and for free.The website will be closing soon.
