1970s: A hot-tempered wife who accompanied a soldier to the military compound and made a fortune.

Chapter 1129 What Does She Want to Exchange?
The village chief recognized the man as Uncle Fu and said, "Uncle Fu, I'm afraid it won't work today. This is something I made with the purchasing station a few days ago. No matter how much we harvest today, we have to deliver it."

Upon hearing this, Chu Xue quickly stepped forward and grabbed Grandpa Afu: "Grandpa Afu, I can't leave today anyway. Just give me some fish when the fishing boats come back tomorrow. You can take me away directly, and the fish will still be fresh."

Grandpa Afu slapped his forehead: "Look at my brain, I didn't think things through."

Chu Xue laughed: "It's because you're so focused on me that you've neglected everything else."

When Ah Fu heard Chu Xue's ending for him, he burst into laughter: "What a beautiful and kind-hearted girl."

As they were talking, several young men from the village gathered around: "Uncle Afu, is this young woman a relative of yours?"

Grandpa Afu waved his hands repeatedly and said, "I dare not accept such praise. The girl is a relative of the Jiao family's daughter-in-law. The Jiao family went to pick up their daughter-in-law and grandson today, and the girl came along to visit."

Upon hearing that they were relatives of Jiao's daughter-in-law, those with malicious intentions backed down. After all, Jiao's son was a soldier in the army and a high-ranking officer with four pockets, someone they couldn't afford to offend.

Chu Xue naturally saw the villagers' behavior, which is why she not only asked Grandpa Afu for help, but also brought the Jiao family along.

While on the ship, I overheard their family's conversation. They could help me get the supplies I wanted as quickly as possible and leave safely. The price of two packs of cigarettes was simply too good to pass up.

Since they weren't buying fresh fish today, Uncle Fu and Uncle Jiao, who arrived quickly, discussed it and went to find the village head. After all, the young girl had said she wanted to exchange for a lot of dried goods, which was a good thing for their fishing village. However, this couldn't be done in a big way, so they had to tell the village officials about it.

When the captain heard that the little girl wanted to exchange for dried seafood, he looked at the bag at the girl's feet and asked, "What does she want to exchange?"

Uncle Jiao waved to the first snow.

Chu Xue picked up her handbag and walked over.

This bag was specially prepared before boarding the boat, and the contents were also prepared in advance. For fishermen, these things are more attractive than money. He introduced Chuxue, saying, "Chuxue, this is the head of our Jiaotang East Village. You can call him Uncle Dewang."

Chu Xue nodded to the person and greeted them with a slight smile: "Hello, Uncle Dewang."

The brigade leader wasn't inflexible. They had little land, and every household relied on the sea for a living. Plus, travel was inconvenient these days, so their families lacked everything except the dried goods they had saved up: "Girl, how would you like to exchange it?"

Chu Xue didn't beat around the bush: "Uncle Dewang, I brought some rare items with me. I trust you won't let me suffer any losses."

As he spoke, he opened the bag slightly, revealing the brown sugar inside: "Inside here are not only brown sugar, flashlights, batteries, soap, and cigarettes, but also a few pieces of cloth and a few pounds of flour and millet. Of course, if you don't need these things, I can pay you in cash."

Not only the brigade leader, but also Uncle Jiao and Grandpa Afu, who were about to get busy, were excited. These were all good things.

Uncle Jiao asked excitedly, "First Snow, do you have any millet or flour?"

Chu Xue nodded: "Yes, I brought some, but not many."

She didn't specify the exact number, so we can cheat a little bit when the time comes.

Uncle Jiao rubbed his hands together and said, "First Snow, I also have some dried seafood stored at home. Don't worry, I guarantee you'll be satisfied with the quality."

He had originally planned to wait for his son to come back so he could take the gift to the military base to do favors, but of course he couldn't say that out loud.
