Lin Ranran squatted down curiously to see what treasures the child had brought.
The child looked proud, and opened the cloth bag by himself, revealing a lot of pine nuts inside. Those pine nuts are as long as knuckles, and they are smooth and dark brown. If you pick up a handful, they are full, and there is no one that is flat or bad.
Lin Ranran was surprised: "Where did you get so many pine nuts? I have never seen such a big pine nut."
"I picked it up myself." The child puffed out his chest, and his proud appearance reminded Lin Ranran of another little fat man.
She chuckled and said, "So you can talk?"
The child pursed his mouth, turned his attention back to the bag of pine nuts, and said, "Can I change it?"
Lin Ranran smiled: "Of course, what do you want to change?"
The child's finger pointed to the row of canned sugar water, showing an expression of wanting but embarrassed to speak.
Lin Ranran was almost crushed by him, and asked with a smile, "Which one do you want to change?"
"Is it enough?" The child twisted his hands together in embarrassment. He knows this kind of canned food is very expensive, and he has never seen this kind of fruit.
Lin Ranran thought for a while, she really hadn't traded pine nuts, and she didn't know the market price. Nuts are rich in nutrition and can also fill you up. The taste is good, and the price should be similar to refined grains?
These pine nuts weigh about five catties, which is not enough to buy a bottle of canned sugar water based on the black market price of fine grains.
But this child is cute, and she doesn't want to disappoint the child. Thinking of this, Lin Ranran smiled: "These pine nuts are not enough."
The child's expression immediately collapsed.
"If you can get me more, I'll change them for you." Lin Ranran continued with a smile.
Only then did the child cheer up. He stood in front of a row of sugar water cans and looked carefully for a long time, and finally pointed to a bottle of green grape cans.
Lin Ranran deliberately teased him: "Why did you choose this?"
"I haven't eaten it, give it to grandma." The child stared at the bottle of canned fruit brightly.
Lin Ranran picked up a bottle and handed it to him, and said with a smile, "Take it."
The child held the can in both hands and walked away with short legs.
Brother Kui just came over, looked at the pine nuts in Lin Ranran's hand, and said with a smile: "This business is losing money, you can take half a catty of food stamps for this kind of stuff, and you can exchange a big bag for it at any fellow villager's house. "
Lin Ranran smiled and said, "Are there a lot of pine nuts here?"
A villager looked at the pine nuts in Lin Ranran's hand, and interjected: "Such big grandsons can only be found in deep mountains and old forests, and only those mountain people living in the forests can pick them up."
"People in our village can also pick up some pine nuts and mountain products, but they are not so big. Do you want them? My family still has them. My youngest son may have collected 20 catties this year. Can he exchange a few bottles of canned sugar water? "
Brother Kui said: "Don't dream about it, people only give it because they think the child is cute."
Lin Ranran smiled and said, "I also accept pine nuts, but the price is not so high."
"Chengcheng, I also have it at home, I'll go home and get it now!" The villagers said one after another. Even if you can't sell it for as high a price as canned sugar water, it's still a profit if you sell it for a few cents.
These mountain goods were originally picked up by the villagers in the mountains in their spare time, and they are children's toys. A child who is diligent and agile can pick up dozens of catties in one winter vacation. Although these things are not as good as food, they can still be worth a small part of the ration as snacks.
After changing things for a while, Lin Ranran was also a little bored, walking around to look at the scenery.
The autumn in the north does not have the green mountains and green waters of Tianshui Village, but it is golden and the autumn is high and windy. There is also a dark virgin forest in the distance, and when the wind blows, there are bursts of pines.
"There!" A child's voice came, and the child just now pulled a dark-skinned and strangely dressed woman over. The woman's hair was braided in many small braids, and she was taller and stronger than ordinary women.
The child took the woman by the hand and walked in front of Lin Ranran. The woman showed her white teeth in a smile, and babbled a lot to Lin Ranran.
do not understand at all.
Seeing Lin Ranran's blank expression, the woman changed into Chinese with a somewhat unfamiliar accent: "My child will change this with you."
The woman took out the can of grapes.
Lin Ranran smiled: "Yes."
The woman said: "This is very expensive, I know. Return it to you."
The woman returned the can of grapes to Lin Ranran, and the child immediately pulled the woman's sleeve in aggrieved manner, but was stopped by her stern gaze.
Lin Ranran hurriedly said: "HeLin Ranran was full of good feelings.
The mountain people are very hospitable and invite guests to eat and drink with their own fruit wine and smoked meat.
The fruit wine tasted so strong that Lin Ranran blushed from choking after taking a sip, which made the mountain people burst into laughter. Brother Kui was very happy, and took a few sips. Seeing Brother Kui's boldness, those mountain people happily found a gourd, poured a gourd of fruit wine and gave it to Brother Kui.
Yan Qing took a piece of smoked meat, cut it into thin slices with the pocket knife, and handed it to Lin Ranran.
"Eat it raw?" Lin Ranran was stunned for a moment, and took it with a smile. She first put the meat on her nose and smelled it, which brought a slight smell of smoke and fruit wood, as well as a unique aroma of bacon.
Fortunately, the meat was shaved very thin, so thin that it rolled up.
Lin Ranran stuffed the meat into his mouth and chewed it carefully. It tasted a bit like Spanish raw ham, but the taste was not bad.
Lin Ranran took out a few dry flatbreads from his bag, which were baked with butter, flour and salt.
Lin Ranran cut open the bread with a knife, put it on the fire and baked it. After it is browned on both sides, the bacon is sliced ??into thin slices and sandwiched inside. In this way, the aroma of bacon and the impact of raw meat are neutralized by the baked bread, and it adds another taste to chewing.
After the mountain people tasted it, they all gave Lin Ranran a thumbs up.
Yan Qing seems to have a high status among the mountain people. She explained the purpose of Lin Ranran's visit to the mountain people in local dialect, and pointed to the things Lin Ranran brought.
Brother Kui hurriedly spread out a large bag of cloth that he brought, and there were some daily necessities in it, which Lin Ranran specially picked and brought.
There are aluminum lunch boxes, aluminum pots, thick cloth, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, needlework, and some gadgets. There are also a few cans of sugar water and the grains that have just been exchanged. Spread out on a large canvas, it seems to have opened a grocery store.
The mountain people were very happy when they saw this, and they went back to their tents and took out a lot of things.
The things these mountain people keep are really strange, including fungus, mountain fungus, dried bacon, skins, and the most are pine nuts, hazelnuts and walnuts. Another child took out a pack of fresh red berries and wanted to exchange for a wooden top, Lin Ranran also agreed with a smile.
Needless to say, those pine nuts and hazelnuts. One of them is the rarest kind of pocket fungus, which Lin Ranran has seen before in later generations. The fungus is as big as the cap of a little finger and grows on some thin branches and vines. It is hard to find and the price is comparable to gold.
There is also expensive mountain fungus such as chicken fir. It's a pity that there are very few fresh mountain mushrooms, and most of them have been dried.
Lin Ranran also took an old ginseng. It's a pity that wild ginseng is hard to find, and only professional ginseng pickers can get it. There are quite a lot of wild Ganoderma lucidum, which usually grow on tree roots and shaded places, and Lin Ranran also harvested a lot.
The skills of the mountain people to cook mountain delicacies and bacon have been passed down from generation to generation, and the quality of the mountain products is very good. The pine nuts and hazelnuts have also been picked one by one, and none of them are bad.
The mountain people are simple and honest, and they don't know how to ask a price. Lin Ranran didn't take advantage of them, and accepted it with a very generous price.
If the mountain people exchange these things with the villagers, they can only exchange half of them. After all, if the villagers want to change things, they have to go to the city or to the supply and marketing cooperatives, and the resources at hand are scarce.
This time, Lin Ranran collected hundreds of catties of mountain goods and more than fifty pieces of leather. She was a little worried about how these mountain people would spend the winter without their skins.
Yan Qing smiled and told Lin Ranran that their winter quilts and leather jackets had already been prepared. Besides, their men can hunt at any time, and there will be fresh prey and skins every day, so Lin Ranran doesn't have to worry.
After changing the things, Lin Ranran and Brother Kui couldn't carry them out, so the woman called some mountain people, brought some horses, hung all the things on the horses, and prepared to send Lin Ranran out.
At this time, a child ran over, chirped a lot, and danced.
"What?!" Yan Qing's face became serious, and he said something loudly to the mountain people.
Several men who were sitting on the side repairing tools immediately got up, went back to the tent to get the tools, and hurried away with the child.
