I Am That Little Fox [Quick Transmigration] Chapter 99: The Village Tyrant and the Little Educated Youth (13)

 

Bai Xiaoxi thought, she still had to find a way to get tickets.

 

It’s just that she has a dark eye on this kind of thing. Even if you inquire about something that is obviously a violation of discipline, not only will others not tell you, but they may even go to report it.

 

She thought about it and thought about Liang Sheng.

 

Liang Sheng obviously has a way, which can be seen from the fact that he took over the Tai Sui.

 

The value of Taisui, if sold to a purchase station, it would be a loss if the price was low. If the price was high, the money would be too eye-catching, and it would probably be confiscated, and neither of them would have a chance to spend it.

 

And Liang Sheng has other ways to sell it at a higher price without attracting others’ attention. From this point of view, it is very likely that he can get the tickets.

 

Determined to find an opportunity to ask Liang Sheng, Bai Xiaoxi temporarily left the matter behind and began to wander around.

 

The commune is not big, and apart from state-run institutions such as purchasing stations, supply and marketing cooperatives, and post offices, there is basically nothing to see.

 

With a “huge sum of money” in her arms, she walked from the street to the end of the street, but she couldn’t find a place to spend money. Finally, at the entrance of an alley, she saw a few people selling agricultural products in baskets.

Although the policy does not allow private operations, it is still allowed for farmers to use the output from their private land in exchange for some money in addition to supplying it to their own families.

 

Bai Xiaoxi saw a vegetable seller, an egg seller, and a teenage girl carrying a small basket of wild berries for sale.

 

This small berry looks like a raspberry, and its scientific name is Penguin. It grows in the weeds on the edge of the fields in the mountains. It has thorns on the stems. Everyone who wants to taste the delicious food must get a few bites from it.

 

The berries in the basket are plump and round, with bright red in color. They are full of sugar and very attractive at first sight.

 

Bai Xiaoxi squatted down and asked the girl, “How do you sell this?”

The girl’s clothes were washed white, her knees and elbows were patched, her dark skin was a little red, she was embarrassed and shy, “Ten for one penny…”

 

She hesitated to say, because one penny can buy a piece of candy, which can be eaten for a long time in the mouth, and ten wild berries are eaten all at once. But she also needs money to save for her tuition. As long as the wild berries are sold out today, the money will be enough.

 

Afraid that the beautiful sister in front of her might think it was expensive and leave after asking like the others, she quickly added: “Fifteen pieces are fine, but they should be smaller.”

 

Bai Xiaoxi thought for a while and asked, “Sell me the basket too and give you eighty cents, okay?”

 

The little girl was startled and waved her hands repeatedly, “Too many…”

This small basket has no more than two or three hundred, even if you add the basket, it is not worth that much.

 

“It’s okay, I like this basket.” Bai Xiaoxi took out the change and stuffed it into the girl’s hand. There were many small wounds on her hands, which should have been scratched when picking the fruit.

 

The little fox earns her own money quite easily. Seeing how hard it is for others, she feels that if only two or three cents are used to exchange the fruits of their hard work, she will feel sad, and the berries will not be sweet anymore . It is better to eat more. Spend some money and buy peace of mind.

 

The little girl couldn’t refuse, and kept thanking her with red eyes. Bai Xiaoxi waved her hand, left with the basket, and prepared to go back to Yangmeiling.

 

On the way back, someone saw the basket in her hand and asked,”Where did you pick so many wild berries?”

Bai Xiaoxi smiled, lifted the basket forward, and said, “I bought it from the commune, does my aunt want to eat it?”

 

“No way, you kids eat it, how much did you buy it for?”
