60s Grandma Storms the Wholesale Market

60s Grandma Storms the Wholesale Market Plot:

During the famine years, food prices soared and every family struggled. Wang Guilan, a 60s grandma looked down upon in her courtyard, learned from neighbors that cheap wholesale goods were available. Ignoring her kids’ objections and others’ criticism, she took her hale husband, used her private savings and rushed to the market. At first, stall owners found her too old and troublesome, merchants doubted her order capability. But with her arithmetic skills from the cooperative, she calculated price difference clearly, got low-cost goods and partnered with neighbors. Half a year later, her family was well-fed and she became an admired “wholesale wonder” in the courtyard.
