Chapter 399 Lu Miao's Special Visit(1/2)

Previously, when I was still in Xiaolaojun Mountain.
Luo Xuan came to the market with the idea that "if you just look around, you may not be able to buy big livestock."
difficult times,
Everyone is living a difficult life, so how is it possible that there are still many big livestock to be sold?
And even if a cow can be sold for a few hundred yuan, according to the current market prices in the frog market, it actually can't buy many kilograms of rice.
If you think about it this way, it is not cost-effective to sell large livestock now.
I never expected that!
The livestock trading market was still crowded with people, donkeys, mules, ponies, oxen, piglets...
All kinds of large livestock flooded the market.
There are all kinds of bargaining voices. The voices of scalpers who belittle the big buffalo and exalt others are endless.
At the livestock trading market, what is unexpected is that there are actually a lot of people bringing large livestock to sell today!
Since there are many people coming to sell it, the price is probably not too expensive.
Originally I didn’t know how to choose these things, I would only choose them based on money: If they are sold too cheap, there must be something wrong!
Or the teeth are very old.
Either it was overworked in the past, and there are hidden injuries in the body of such a big animal.
actually,
Buying big livestock is similar to buying a house for future generations: it has a general market price.
The buyer should not think about getting a big deal, and the seller should not try to deceive the other party too much.
It can definitely be regarded as a penny worth a penny.
and,
This kind of commodity involves large cash transactions, in order to prevent buyers and sellers from cheating each other and causing serious disputes.
So in this trading market, there is also a "trading fair officer".
After reaching a transaction intention for any large livestock, the buyer and seller will invite the transaction fairer.
Let him see if the quality of the big livestock he is going to sell is worth the money?
If the difference is 10 yuan or 20 yuan, the trading fair officer will not care.
But if the price gap is too big, he will terminate the deal...
This is mainly because both parties participating in the market now come from different production teams.
They represent their respective groups and participate in the transaction.
This is very different from the old society, where buyers and sellers were allowed to grow wildly, each relying on their own abilities, and allowed to be deceived and abducted.
The nature is completely different.
There is no such thing as a collective cheating a collective. After all, on the surface, everyone likes to say: We are a brother production team.
Since we are brothers, it is enough for each other to settle accounts wisely.
But you must not cheat or deceive.
Moreover, even if you deceive the other party.
Both parties involved in the transaction, in fact, personally do not get half a dime of benefit!
therefore,
The current large livestock trading market is actually relatively transparent, fair and fair.
Luo Xuan walked around the market twice and finally bought a two-year-old foal for 335 yuan.
This foal is a typical Yunnan horse: short and doesn't eat much.
The characteristic of Yunnan horses is that they cannot run very fast, but they are very hardworking and very suitable for transporting goods over long distances.
In the past, the caravans that carried tea bricks and salt on the Ancient Tea Horse Road used Yunnan horses as their favorite means of transport.
Luo Xuan planned to buy this horse and put it at the entrance of the reserve, with brothers Zhou Lao Er and Zhou Lao Er taking care of it.
If Zhou Laoer has something to do and needs to go to Xiaolaojun Mountain, he can also ride on it.
Traveling with a horse is always faster than walking, which can also improve efficiency.
More importantly, if you meet Chen Xiaoduan and need to go into the mountains to reunite with her mother.
This horse can also be used as a means of transportation for her.
After buying the horse, Luo Xuan planned to continue riding around.
"Luo Xuan, why are you here?"
take the foal,
Tied to the fence of the trading market, Luo Xuan continued to wander.
But the voice of the captain of the Wutong Brigade came from beside him, "I see from your appearance that you are planning to buy some big livestock, right?
Luo Xuan, why don't you come and take a look at my three mules? Can you see if I can see them?"
Luo Xuan turned around and saw that it was indeed his old acquaintance: the captain of the Wutong Brigade.
Generally speaking,
The person who leads the production team or the large livestock in the brigade to trade, at most, the team leader, and is accompanied by an accountant and breeder.
The captain can barely manage and can be regarded as half a public servant.
Cadres at his level would generally not get involved in such nonsense.
“Now is the time to continue drought relief and require large livestock to haul water to the fields.
Others are eager to have more big livestock in the production team, the better, so why do you take them out and sell them?"
Luo Xuan stepped forward and patted the maroon mule.
It feels good in hand!
This mule is quite strong.
The captain sighed, pulled Luo Xuan aside, and whispered, "To fight the drought, we really need big livestock to work hard. But the problem is, we don't have much grain in the warehouse to feed so many big livestock.
This guy can carry the food quota of 10 members on one head!
Should we protect people first or protect these big livestock first? This has to be a question of trade-off.
Actually, people who are willing to sell big livestock probably do so because of my thoughts. Otherwise, who would be willing to sell it?"
After listening to this, Luo Xuan finally understood: What the captain meant was to sell the livestock and save some food rations to save lives.
Or should we keep the big livestock so that the production team’s future harvests can be more secure?
Of course, the commune members are eager for the production team to have a higher crop harvest, so they need to keep large livestock to help with the work.
But if we keep such big animals, the food rations of the commune members will be even more tight.
during this difficult time.
For the members of the production team, their rations are only 3 taels a day.
to be honest,
This small amount of food is not even enough to squeeze through the teeth. But even with this small amount of food, many production teams are still unable to distribute it in full and in sufficient quantities.
By retaining large livestock, the production team's future harvests will be more secure.
And selling it can make the rations of the current members more abundant...
Is this a case of looking first at the present?
It’s time to consider the long-term dilemma.
Selling large livestock is equivalent to slow suicide, cutting the flesh with a dull knife.
Not selling it is equivalent to jumping off a cliff and dying immediately.
well.....
As things have developed now, Luo Xuan has completely understood the dilemma of Captain Wu Cong in front of him.
actually,
Even if he sells these large livestock, he won't be able to get much food back.
Moreover, the process of selling the livestock in the production team is quite difficult.
In this period,
The large livestock in the production team are registered in the commune. Every mule, cow, and pig is registered.
