Chapter 544: Dangerous Situation
Xiaofeng watched the car drive away, no longer thinking of anything else, only listening to the cart-pushing lady who said, "Our vegetables here are cheap, and many big bosses come here to buy in bulk and sell them in the surrounding provinces."
"How much is eggplant per pound now?"
"It depends on the quality. The good-looking ones are sixty cents, and the less appealing ones, forty to fifty cents are possible."
In this era, such prices weren’t exactly low; they were at least related to the current national situation. In that era, everyone’s salary was only a few hundred yuan.
Uncle Yuan’s group happened to be heading back to the county town and helped the couple push the cart all the way back. Upon arrival, the couple thanked the three of them and gave them almost five or six pounds of eggplants they had grown, for them to take back and try.
Since it was gifted, Uncle Yuan naturally accepted it. The three of them then headed towards the place where they were staying for the night, where their car was still parked.
"Dad, look, isn’t there someone acting suspiciously near our car?" Before they got close to the car, they noticed several locals gathered around it.
The three looked over and indeed saw a few people surrounding their car, seeming as if they were trying to pry something open.
