Chapter 30: Eat as Much as You Want, There’s More!
“Isn’t one-twenty a little too pricey?” someone said with a frown.
“That’s right. You didn’t even pay for this wild boar but got it for free from the mountain. One-twenty is too expensive.”
“Sell it at a lower price, Gu Jin.”
Hearing their voices, Gu Jin maintained a smile on her face, but the expression in her eyes was turning frosty.
Chen Hong pulled a face and stepped forth with her arms akimbo when she heard what those people said. “What are you talking about? The girl risked her life to catch the wild boar. Are you all telling me that you want it for free?”
“How can you say that when you didn’t pay a cent for the wild boar meat but want to sell us at such a high price?” the woman who first complained muttered.
Gu Jin cast a glance at her, recognizing that she was Laizi, Liu Laoer’s wife.
Liu Dapeng, their son, had bullied An Mingji before.
Gu Jin put on a smile, but her eyes were frigid. “If I sell the wild boar meat in the province, I can sell it for a higher price. Yet, I am selling it for one-twenty in the spirit of communal interest. Not forgetting, you don’t need a meat coupon to buy this meat.
“Order it from my uncle if you want to buy it, but I won’t stop you from buying the expensive meat at the cooperative.”
After she said this, Gu Jin brought the child with her and entered the kitchen.
She did not care if those people wanted to buy the meat. Even if they did not, she could still sell the wild boar meat to others.
Not to mention, it would fetch a higher price outside.
At that time, people needed meat coupons to buy meat from the cooperative. Many profiteers had taken advantage of the situation, so pork was now the hottest-selling commodity.
Everyone heard Gu Jin and knew that Liu Laoer’s wife had angered her. Immediately, someone stepped out. “Give me two pounds of meat.”
“You got it!”
Gu Dechang quickly finished the meat in his bowl as he came over. Then he shoved the bowl and chopsticks into Chen Hong’s hands.
Following that, he picked up the cleaver and cut the portion of meat for the woman’s order.
Gu Jin arrived in the kitchen and saw two bowls of meat on the table. The braised meat in the bowls consisted of piled layers of lean meat and fat, but fatty meat formed the bulk of it.
People loved fatty meat because lean meat was less palatable. The flavor of fatty meat just exploded in their mouths when they took a bite. Braised meat tasted even better when it was served with buns.
An Mingji could not help but swallow big time when he saw the two bowls of braised meat.
Seeing his reaction, Gu Jin smiled and brought him to the table. “Eat as much as you want, there’s more!”
An Mingji did not make his move when he saw that Gu Jin had not done anything.
Gu Jin noticed this, so she sat down and placed a bowl filled with braised meat into An Mingji’s hand. “Here you go. Eat it while it’s hot.”
“Okay.”
An Mingji sat down, picked up his chopsticks, and dug in.
He had not eaten meat for many years and had almost forgotten how it tasted since his grandmother passed away.
Picking up a slice of braised meat with evenly distributed fat and lean meat, he could not wait to shove it into his mouth.
The meat was tender, aromatic, fatty, but not overly satiating. It was extremely savory, though not to the point of melting in his mouth.
An Mingji swallowed a whole chunk of it without chewing.
Seeing him eat so heartily, Gu Jin held up her bowl and chose to eat the leaner braised meat.
