In the age of garbage cans, stock up to feed the famine boss

Chapter 3 My name is Mo Beichen

"Okay." Mo Beichen picked up the box, turned around and ran back to his room, put the box on the desk, and quickly wrote the letter.

He is going to his grandparents' house later, and he wants to provide some water to them, but he needs to discuss this with them to see if they are willing to help.

Yang Muxi came to the warehouse with a trash can, cut off the warehouse surveillance, and then started moving potatoes.

In the past, she did live broadcasts to help farmers, but many farmers did not know how to operate. Once she helped, she had to help until the end, which was very tiring, and she had no income at all.

Later, she changed her way of helping. She bought agricultural products from farmers, and then processed, packaged and sold them herself. This way, the farmers' agricultural and sideline products would not be unsalable, and she could also earn some money.

It can also provide some employment opportunities for young people in rural areas, allowing more people to stay in their hometowns to develop.

She bought the potatoes in the warehouse at the price of 50 cents per pound, packed them into boxes of ten pounds each, and then sold them through live broadcast.

The man gave 800 yuan, which could buy 1,600 kilograms of potatoes, but there were only 80 boxes in the warehouse, so he could only be given 80 boxes first.

So Yang Muxi moved eighty boxes of potatoes over.

Yang Muxi wrote a sentence on the letter paper and put it in the trash can.

"I'm going to send you half a potato, please be ready."

Soon she received a reply, with an extra "OK" under the words she wrote.

So she threw the potatoes into the trash can one box at a time, and eight hundred kilograms of potatoes disappeared from her sight.

Mo Beichen looked at the rectangular boxes falling out of the vegetable basket. He was afraid that they would hit him, so he stepped back repeatedly. After a while, his room was filled with identical boxes.

He quickly opened a box and saw that there were really potatoes inside. He was very excited. He didn't expect that his eight hundred yuan could be exchanged for so many potatoes. It seems that this thing from another time and space is cheaper than the black market here!

Mo Beichen tore off another piece of letter paper and wrote, "Potato has been received. Thank you comrade for your help."

Then put the letter paper into the vegetable basket.

Yang Muxi replied, "You're welcome. I'm glad I could help you."

Mo Beichen looked at Yang Muxi's reply and quickly replied, "I wonder if I can ask my comrades to help me buy food next time?"

It is summer now. Even if it rains, it is too late to plant crops this year. We have to wait until next spring to plant crops and harvest them in autumn. If we want to wait for food supply, we will probably have to wait more than a year.

These potatoes won't last until that time.

As the head of the security department, he couldn't bear to see his men go hungry, nor did he want to see his relatives and friends go hungry. Now that he had this channel to buy food, Mo Beichen wanted to grasp it well, as he would still need the other party's help to buy food or other supplies in the future.

But the prerequisite is to obtain the other party's consent and reach a cooperative relationship. Otherwise, why would the other party help him buy so much food again and again?
It would take a lot of effort just to move and transport it!
"I can help buy food." Yang Muxi replied.

It was not troublesome for her to buy things. She only needed to make a phone call and the suppliers would deliver the goods to her. Moreover, the suppliers would pay for the goods themselves, so she didn't need to pay for it.

Mo Beichen was very happy to see Yang Muxi's reply. He quickly opened the box that his grandmother had just handed him, took out a pair of green bracelets from it, and put them into the vegetable basket together with the reply.

Grandma gave him these things so that he could exchange them for food. It didn't matter who he exchanged them with. Seeing the full green jade bracelet that came with the reply, Yang Muxi widened her eyes in shock. If she was not mistaken, the price of such a top-quality bracelet should be at least seven figures, right?

"Here are a pair of bracelets. One is for you as a reward for your hard work. I'd like to ask you to exchange the other for food."

"Could you please provide some more water later?"

Yang Muxi was so excited that she almost screamed. She finally owned a bracelet that she had never dared to dream of?
Now, let alone providing a little water, she would be willing even if you provided a pond of water!

"Just let me know when you need water. It's getting late. I'm going to wash up first."

Yang Muxi put the reply letter into the trash can, put the trash can under the faucet, filled a basin with water from the kitchen sink, soaked the bracelet in it, and went to the bathroom to wash up.

After receiving the reply, Mo Beichen quickly packed up. He hid the small box his grandmother gave him at the bottom of his closet, then unpacked ten boxes of potatoes and put them into sacks. After moving out, he tied the sacks to the back seat of the bicycle, carefully hung the vegetable basket on the handlebars, and rode away on the bicycle carrying the potatoes.

After taking a shower, Yang Muxi washed the jade bracelet carefully. The color of the jade bracelet looked more rich and pure. Yang Muxi liked it so much that she put it on quickly.

When I was about to take a photo of the bracelet and send it to my friend who is in the jade business, a letter fell out of the trash can.

"I am ready."

Mo Beichen came to his grandparents' house and gave each of them a box of dumplings. Then he went to the kitchen with potatoes and a vegetable basket, wrote a letter to Yang Muxi, and stood by the big water tank holding the vegetable basket.

"I'll start delivering water to you now." Yang Muxi replied to inform the other party, then turned on the faucet. After setting an alarm, he took a few photos of the bracelet and sent them to Sheng Mengyu, who was in the jade business.

Ten minutes later, Yang Muxi turned off the faucet, wrote a letter and put it in the trash can.

"It's late, I need to rest."

"I'll let you know once I know how many kilograms of food the jade bracelet can be exchanged for."

Yang Muxi yawned loudly, then carried the trash can back to her room like a treasure. She didn't expect that this ordinary-looking trash can would bring her such a big surprise.

*
Yang Muxi passed twenty boxes of dumplings to Mo Beichen. Mo Beichen took two boxes for his grandparents, two boxes for his grandparents, and ate one box himself, leaving fifteen boxes.

The weather was hot now, and there was no way to save the dumplings for tomorrow, so Mo Beichen took the remaining dumplings and 100 kilograms of potatoes to the black market to find Jin Changsheng.

Jin Changsheng was his childhood friend, and the two had a very good relationship, but even a good cook could not cook without rice. Even if his childhood friend was in the black market, Mo Beichen would not be able to buy food.

Jin Changsheng's business had not been open for a long time and he had no money, so he gave Mo Beichen a box of old items that others had used to exchange for food.

Although the old items are not valuable now, they may appreciate in value in the future, so Mo Beichen took a box of old items and quietly returned home.

When Mo Beichen was about to lie down, he realized that he didn't know his benefactor's name, so he quickly wrote a letter and put it in the vegetable basket.

"Comrade, let me introduce myself first. My name is Mo Beichen, I'm 25 years old, and I work in a car factory after I was demobilized. What's your name, comrade?"
