Chapter 161: Changing Meat Chapter 161: Changing Meat
Oh, right! He still doesn’t know the comrade’s last name.

"Comrade, my name is Erdun, what's your last name?"

"I am Mr. Lee."

"Comrade Li, don't worry. I'll go make arrangements now. See you in an hour."

"Okay, see you in an hour."

Li Wan'er was actually worried about whether this man named Erdun had the ability to do the job. Anyway, she wanted to give him a try first, as she was not in a hurry.

Li Wan'er strolled in the alley not far away. An hour later, she returned to the place and found that the man named Erdun had arrived, and he was accompanied by a middle-aged man in his fifties.

"Hey, here it is, Comrade Li."

"Yeah." Li Wan'er saw him waving and waved back.

"Comrade Li, this is the chief of the nearest village. I told them that you have 10,000 kilograms of refined rice to exchange for their beef and mutton, and they agreed immediately." Erdun was very happy. Apart from the time spent going back and forth, he and the village chief only talked for less than a quarter of an hour and it was done.

The village chief promised to give him 50 kilograms of fruit for free as a reward for his introduction if the transaction was successful.

Of course, there was also a share of the profits between him and Comrade Li.

He will get 50 kilograms out of every 10,000 kilograms sold, so he can get 100 kilograms for free in this transaction, and he will also introduce it to other villages.

This is a very profitable business, and there is no investment or talk involved.

It seems that knowing one more language is very important!

Erdun acted as the middleman and was responsible for translation because neither Li Wan'er nor the village chief understood what the other was saying.

They quickly came up with a plan. To show her sincerity, Li Wan'er picked up about ten kilograms of food and gave it to the village chief. This was something she had thought of before she showed up.

The transaction took place at the entrance of the tribe. They first transported half of the meat, pulled 10,000 kilograms of grain back to the village, and then transported the remaining amount to the entrance.

Of course, Li Wan'er set the transaction time at night. It had to be at night, as it would attract attention in broad daylight. Besides, she didn't have a transport vehicle and needed cover.

Erdun and Li Wan'er followed the village chief to familiarize themselves with the route and went to see the cattle and sheep in the village.

People at that time could not even get enough to eat, let alone the livestock. They all looked very thin, but they were still of good size.

Li Wan'er doesn't have to be so picky, as long as they are healthy, it's fine.

Li Wan'er left after reading it. As for how their village arranged it, she was fine with it as long as it was meat. Mainly, her boyfriend and her brother were not very picky.

Maybe it was because they had never eaten fresh beef and mutton, so all she had in stock were pickled beef and mutton.

In this era, beef and mutton could not be slaughtered at will, unless they died of illness or old age. The only common animals were pork, chicken and duck.

So this is also the reason why Li Wan'er came here, because the staple food here is mutton.

The grasslands are home to cattle, sheep and horses, but pigs, chickens and ducks are very rare and basically hard to find.
