A month later.
Qiao Qingqing successfully sold twenty bluefin tuna, bringing in twelve thousand yuan. She also sold nine large pigs, earning one thousand five hundred and thirty yuan. Live pigs are naturally much cheaper than processed pork, considering the weight loss from fur, blood, and waste, plus the buyer’s profit margin. Even so, the price Sun Zhong gave her was still higher than what she would have received from the meat processing station. With thirteen thousand five hundred and thirty yuan now in hand, Qiao Qingqing felt her confidence return.
Afterward, Qiao Qingqing bid farewell to Sun Zhong and his group and returned to the Hongsheng Production Brigade. She had one month of vacation left, but once she accounted for travel time and a period to settle in at home, she had less than twenty days of actual time to use.
