Chapter 138 Procurement, seven hundred and thirty-seven yuan and sixty-two cents
In less than twenty minutes, Asheng and the others arrived here pulling the sled.
Parking the sleigh directly at the door of the supply and marketing cooperative, he walked into the supply and marketing cooperative with a handful of tickets.
"Hello! I'm buying something."
The salesperson is a young girl who looks less than twenty years old. She must have just started working.
His face was not very good at first, but after seeing Li Jiayi, a smile immediately appeared on his face.
This is the advantage of children. Even if you are in a bad mood, your mood will immediately improve when you see this beautiful child.
"What do you want to buy?"
At this time, Li Jiayi had already taken off his hood, and he was still wearing a hood when he went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things. Those who didn't know it thought he was going to rob.
"Thirteen bottles of chrysanthemum white, fifteen bottles of lotus white, fourteen bottles of Maotai..."
"Twelve items of Greater China, twenty-three items of Daqianmen, Hongta Mountain..."
"Five cans of White Rabbit toffee, six barrels of Golden Rooster biscuits, and five pounds of peach cakes."
Li As Jiayi spoke, the salesperson's mouth opened wider and wider. There was nothing he could do because Li Jiayi wanted too many things.
Unfortunately, what she didn’t know was that Li Jiayi only took out part of it.
And it was all because of the deadline, but even so, the salesperson felt incredible.
There were so many that she couldn't sell them in a month.
"Are you sure you want to buy these?" the salesperson looked at him and asked.
"Yes, these are tickets. Calculate how much they cost and I will get the money for you."
"Oh! Wait a minute, I will calculate it for you right now." The salesperson said After that, I took the abacus and started counting.
In later generations, few people used abacus, or even knew how to use it.
But in this era, almost everyone can do it, especially those who work as salesmen. That’s all.
Soon the salesperson calculated the money. It was actually very simple, just follow the ticket Li Jiayi took out.
“The total is seven hundred and thirty-seven yuan and sixty-two cents.”
Hearing this number, Li Jiayi didn’t feel anything, and quickly took out a handful of money from his pocket and counted it. Seventy-four big black tens were handed over.
"Looking for your money."
After getting the change back, several salespersons began to help Li Jiayi get things.
“Can you carry all these things?” A salesperson came over and asked.
"Okay, you guys can just help me take it outside."
"Okay."
Wait for a few salespersons to help him take the things outside, and watch them When a sleigh stopped at the door, several salespeople felt incredible.
This incredible thing is of course not because of the sled. This thing can also be seen in the imperial capital.
What made them feel incredible was the seven big wolf dogs, these were seven!
Nowadays, when even people don’t have enough to eat, seven wolf dogs are raised at once. This is very confusing.
No wonder you can buy so many things at once. I guess only such people can afford to keep so many dogs!
“Just hand it over to me.” Li Jiayi said while standing on the sled.
"Oh! Okay."
There are a lot of things, but Li Jiayi's big wooden box is also big! There are so many things inside that they don’t show up at all.
After loading everything, Li Jiayi drove Asheng and the others towards Jianguomen.
I went to Deshengmen in the morning, but I couldn’t go there in the afternoon. This was not because I was worried about something happening, but because so much had been sold in the morning, and I basically had no purchasing power in the afternoon.
That’s why he was going to Jianguomen.
At this time, there is no one in Pigeon City at all, because it is noon.
Li Jiayi first found a place to stop and put the sled and Asheng into the space.
Then he also went in, he also wanted to eat! It just so happened that there was no one in Pigeon City right now, so he could eat first and even take a nap.
After entering the space, Li Jiayi took out a pig head from the still space.
Cut a plate of pig tongue, a plate of pig ears, and another plate of pig head meat.
Top with garlic moss, garlic sprouts, and onions.
Add chili oil and you have three plates of cold salad.
They are said to be cold dishes, but in fact they are all hot. They will look the same when you put them in a static space, and they will look the same when you take them out.
Then he took out two more white flour steamed buns and started eating them directly.
Ordinarily, he should have a pot of old wine at this time, but he was too young and did not plan to drink so early.
Even though he is young, he is very good at eating. With two steamed buns and so many vegetables, it didn't take long for him to eat them all.
After finishing the meal, I washed the plates and chopsticks, and made myself a large enamel jar of tea.
He started drinking in the space. After eating and drinking, Li Jiayi returned to the room.
When he woke up, it was already around two o'clock in the afternoon. By this time, there were already many people in Pigeon City.
After coming out of the space, release Asheng and the others, pull the sled and rush to Pigeon City.
As he expected, there were already a lot of people in the pigeon market, and it seemed that there were even more people than there were at Deshengmen in the morning.
In fact, it is normal, because many people like to go out to buy things in the afternoon.
Finding a place to park the sled, Li Jia started shouting.
“Don’t miss it when you’re passing by. Fresh pork only costs one yuan a pound. You can’t afford it and you won’t be fooled.”
“Comrade, I’ll give you two pounds of pork.”
"Get in line first."
With the morning's experience, he shouted to get in line before anyone gathered around him. He found that lining up to sell was much faster than selling in a chaotic manner, and there was less chaos.
“First of all, if anyone has sugar stamps, national food stamps or non-staple food coupons, they can exchange them for meat, and the price will be calculated according to the price in the pigeon market.”
“And this is a good thing.”
"Besides these types of tickets, do you want other tickets?" someone asked.
No choice, Li Jiayi said what he said in the morning again.
The next step is relatively simple, sell them one by one, and sell them to me one by one.
And he was not going to sell pork suet in the afternoon. He planned to sell all pork, even if someone asked.
No way, it’s too troublesome.
Time passed little by little, and when no one bought anymore and it was getting late, he planned to go back.
At this time, don’t say that no one is buying it, even if there are people buying it, he will not sell it.
Because if he delays for a while longer, it will get dark, and he has no intention of going home in the dark.
The sleigh ride is very fast. Even in spring and autumn, it takes half an hour to take the bus. I didn’t expect that it takes about 20 minutes to reach Xinjiekou by sleigh.
Before going home, Li Jiayi drove his sled into an alley.
When he came out again, the sled had been packed up, including the four greyhounds, and he took Asheng and the three of them home.
Of course, he was not empty-handed. He had two bottles of Lotus White, two bottles of Maotai, and about ten kilograms of pork ribs.
This is not the kind of ribs from this era, but the kind from later generations.
To be honest, Li Jiayi really cannot praise the spareribs of this era because there is basically no meat on them.
The ten kilograms of ribs that Li Jiayi brought back are not only rich in meat, but also fine ribs, all with crispy bones.
In addition to these, he also brought back a bucket of golden chicken biscuits, two pounds of peach cakes, and a can of White Rabbit toffee.
Although he said that he would not bring anything to the second sister, how could he not bring it? It is normal for the second sister to be greedy.
In this era, no one is greedy, even adults are, let alone a teenage girl.
"Sister, open the door."
Li Jiayi came back from the back door, and his sister inserted him from behind. He could also use the space to open it, but it was not necessary. It's not that there's no one.
Once or twice is okay, but you can't say that the two sisters forgot to open the door every time! Over time, you will definitely become suspicious.
“Here we come.” The eldest sister’s voice came from the courtyard.
At this time, the eldest sister should be preparing to cook, otherwise it would be impossible to hear her as soon as she shouted.
Soon the eldest sister opened the door, but she was still surprised when she saw him come back with so many things.
"Brother, what are you..."
"Sister, this is my harvest today, what do you think?"
"You went out for a day and you came back with so many things?" the eldest sister said in surprise.
Didn’t Li Jiayi say that! These are his gains today. Who wouldn’t be surprised to bring back so many things after a day out!
"Yes! This is nothing to me."
"Come in quickly." The eldest sister pulled him into the yard, as if she was afraid that others would see him.
"There's no one outside. Who would stay outside in such a cold weather?" Li Jiayi said, shaking his head.
“Here, let me hold it for you.”
“Yeah!”
Li Jia handed a handful of ribs to the eldest sister and said: “Sister, let’s stew it tonight. Let’s stew all these ribs.”
“Brother, you mean to stew all these ribs?”
"Yes! What's the problem."
The eldest sister Li Jiaqi smiled bitterly and shook her head and said, "No problem, just stew it if you want."
Ten pounds of ribs sounds like a lot. In fact, it's not much. Don't forget that there are five people in their family.
A family of five in later generations might not be able to eat all these ribs, but in this era, there may not be enough.
In later generations, many people would be full after just a few mouthfuls of food, but in this era, even the second sister Li Jialin would eat two bowls of dumplings in one meal.
And it’s not that kind of small bowl. It seems that there are no small bowls now, the bowls are quite big.
"Then you go back to the house and warm yourself up, and I'll cook."
"Yes!" Li Jia nodded and walked into the house.
As soon as he entered the room, he saw the second sister looking at him with shining eyes.
In fact, she had already seen the things Li Jiayi had brought back from the window. The reason why she did not go out was because it was hot in the room and she wore less clothes.
"Brother, are you bringing these things for me?"
Li Jiayi curled his lips and said, "What good things are you thinking about? This is for me to eat, and there is no share for you."
< br>"What? You eat so much by yourself?"
Li Jiayi looked at her and asked: "Is there a problem?"
"No...no problem, I don't know. Brother, can you share some with me?”
Li Jia put something on the Eight Immortals table, touched his chin and said, "I can give you some, but you have to help the elder sister cook the pot now."
"Okay."
" Then go ahead! If it satisfies me, or Maybe I’ll give you some more.”
Hearing what Li Jiayi said, the second sister quickly picked up the clothes and said, “I’ll go right away, don’t forget what you said.”
PS: Brothers and sisters, please get some monthly passes! Thanks!
