Gu Qingyao's eyes widened as she stared at the money in front of her. Since when did The Fourth Brother become so rich?
In the past, her brothers had always given her pocket money, which was why she had been able to save so much money. However, even the wealthy The Fourth Brother had never given her so much in one go.
In the past, he had only given her twenty dollars at most.
In this era, the prices of goods were actually very low. It was just that some rare goods were too expensive, but those things were rarely needed.
Of course, the prices in the black market could not be lumped together. Otherwise, it would not be called a black market.
This time, The Fourth Brother had come back and bought her an imported watch and a present. This time, he was giving her so much pocket money. Did he strike it rich?
"The Fourth Brother, you struck it rich?"
Gu Jinfeng felt that his brother's status had suddenly become much higher. He said proudly, "This is nothing. The Fourth Brother's salary is high, and the supplies are sufficient. The things I buy are not expensive either. I don't spend much money, but I earn quite a lot. I can still afford this little bit of money. "
Gu Qingyao: "…"
The Fourth Brother was very business-minded. Otherwise, he would not have been so rich in her previous life.
Gu Qingyao immediately looked at him with sparkling eyes. "The Fourth Brother, do you … have other ways to earn money?"
Gu Jinfeng paused and looked at her. He did not hide anything.
"Of course I do. Otherwise, how do you think Mo Beihan, that guy, has so much money to support his two nephews and take care of his mother? If Mo Beihan can do it, then your brother can only do better. I won't lose to him. "
Gu Qingyao: "…"
Do you have to surpass Mo Beihan to establish your big brother's image?
Gu Qingyao immediately stood up excitedly. "Brother, do you go to the black market often? Aiya, the things outside are very cheap, but the things in the black market are very expensive. I still have a lot of things in my hands! I bought them from the grain store with the money and coupons you sent me before. Let's go and exchange them for something … "
"Sit down!" Gu Jinfeng interrupted her sternly and pulled her down.
He said with a straight face, "You're just a little girl, why are you worrying so much? If you need something to eat or use, just tell me. Do you think the five of us can't afford to feed you? The Fourth Brother can do it all by himself. "
"What if you, a girl, encounter danger in a place like the black market? Stay at home. If you want something good, I'll get it for you. Don't worry about it all day. "
Gu Qingyao: "…"
Gu Jinfeng glared at her and refused to let her go.
Of course, he knew that those things were profitable.
There were many people working in the Gu family. Their salaries were good, and they had all kinds of coupons.
Nowadays, the grain in the grain store was very cheap. Coarse grains like cornmeal were only eight cents per catty. Fine grains were slightly more expensive, but not by much.
The prices in different parts of the country were estimated to fluctuate a little according to the standard of living, but not by much.
Jiangchong City was relatively poor. The prices in the regular grain stores were set by the government and had to be purchased with coupons. However, it was different in the black market.
Gu Jinfeng had been away from home for many years and had been to many places. He knew that in some places with better living conditions, there was no such thing as high-priced grain in the black market. Fine grains could be sold for a few dollars per catty or a few cents per catty.
However, Jiangchong City was different, especially in their county town.
The most expensive fine grains in the black market were still five or four dollars. However, because the production was too low, many people were still hungry.
Rare grains were naturally very expensive in the black market.
