Chapter 371 Only children make choices
After that, he said: "You have also seen my car. It is big, but it mainly seats people and cannot hold much."
"Okay, I happen to have a small truck. If you want more, I will send it to you."
"Okay, give me ten of these five-hundred-ring ones, the same thing with three hundred and sixty-ring ones, and twenty of these one hundred-ring ones!"
Hearing what Li Le said, the boss opened his mouth in surprise, and then asked: "Are you sure you want so much?"
"Why, you don't have that many?"
"Of course there is, but the price is not cheap!"
"How much?"
"One thousand and one of five hundred bells, eight hundred of three hundred and sixty bells, two hundred of one hundred bells."
"No problem, pretend it for me! I'll give you the money now."
How much does this cost! Even if Nie Weiwei and her three siblings were to choose some more, it would only cost them twenty to thirty thousand yuan.
What does this mean to Li Le! It’s less than the price of a pack of cigarettes. If there weren’t so many here, he would have wanted to order more!
And Li Le is doing a good deed! Larger fireworks like this are probably not easy to sell here.
"There's no rush. It won't be too late to check out after the things are delivered." The Northeastern eldest brother is still very down-to-earth.
"It's okay. It doesn't matter if you pay early or late." Li Le didn't care.
Generally, those who do business in the town are people from nearby, and there will be no such thing as not delivering the goods after paying.
"I'd better load the car for you first!"
"Okay, it's up to you."
Li Le came outside, and Nie Weiwei and the others were choosing some flowers and cannons.
The person who led them was a middle-aged woman. Needless to say, she should be the boss's wife.
"Honey, what do you think of the flowers I bought?" Nie Weiwei brought a cardboard box over for Li Le to see.
Li Le took a look and saw that they were all small flowers, monkeys and so on. In fact, there were also some cannonballs.
"You can make up your own mind and buy whatever you like." Li Le rubbed Nie Weiwei's head and said.
In fact, Nie Weiwei also likes to play with these things. When she was a child, her family did not have the conditions to play with them.
Now that I have the conditions, I even said that it is okay for her to play every day. No, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, so I will buy some for fun.
"Yeah! I'll pick something else."
"Okay, let's go!"
"Brother-in-law, can I buy these?" Brother-in-law Nie Wei asked, carrying a cardboard box.
Li Le took a look and saw that it was also something for children to play with.
"You can choose more, or you can choose some big ones. Whatever you want today, my brother-in-law will buy it for you."
"Really?" Brother-in-law Nie Wei asked with eyes shining.
"Of course it's true."
"Thank you, brother-in-law. Then I'll choose some big ones to play with."
"Go!"
Soon my brother-in-law Nie Wei picked out a bunch of flash thunder, fireworks, firecrackers and so on.
Of course, it looked like a lot, but it wasn't worth much. What he chose were small gifts.
The kind that has dozens of rings. This kind of fireworks contains less explosives, so the price is cheaper. The price of one ring is between 70 cents and 1 yuan.
Yes, the price of this small one is much cheaper than the big one. The big one costs more than two yuan, while the small one is less than one yuan.
For example, the price of a forty-ring one is only about thirty yuan. Of course, this also depends on the amount of powder.
Some of the 20-ring rings cost forty or fifty! But there is none here. The small ones here are filled with small amounts of medicine, ranging from four to six grams per ring.
The amount of medicine is small, and the fireworks that explode are certainly not that big, nor are they so beautiful.
Under normal circumstances, the dosage of medicine should reach nine grams, and anything below nine grams is considered small. However, many people are looking for cheap and are unwilling to buy expensive medicines, so they can only buy medicines with small quantities.
My sister-in-law also carried a cardboard box and chose a lot. Like Nie Weiwei, she chose things that little girls like to play with.
Soon the boss came in and said to Li Le: "Everything you want is installed."
"Okay, wait a minute, I'll tell you the address after they've chosen."
"Can."
After another twenty minutes, the three Nie Weiwei siblings finally selected everything.
Except for brother-in-law Nie Wei, who chose more, neither Nie Weiwei nor sister-in-law chose many.
"Boss, you do the math first and I'll give you the money." Li Le said to the boss.
"OK."
The boss took the computer and started counting, mainly counting what Nie Weiwei and the three of them had bought.
Because the things Li Le bought have already been calculated, just add them at the end.
"The total is twenty-eight thousand, three hundred and twenty yuan, you can just give me twenty-eight thousand."
The things Li Le bought alone cost more than 25,000 yuan, almost 26,000 yuan, which means that the three siblings selected together only cost more than 2,000 yuan.
Don’t think that you can buy many fireworks with more than two thousand yuan. To be honest, you really can’t buy many.
There's no way, because fireworks are really expensive now, and that's not to say how much money this boss makes.
The main thing is that as you go down one level at a time, the price goes up.
These fireworks all come from other provinces, and it is even said that they basically come from Liuyang.
The province wholesales to the city, the city wholesales to the county, and the county wholesales to the town.
So when people get it, they don’t know how many times the price has been increased. This is also the reason why fireworks are expensive.
In fact, the main reason is that it has not been liberalized yet. If it is still the same as before, there will be fireworks factories everywhere, and the prices will naturally be cheaper.
But in that case, the quality of fireworks will vary, and there will even be many fake and shoddy products.
"How...how much?" Nie Weiwei asked.
"Twenty-eight thousand," the boss said.
"Why so many?"
Of course, Nie Weiwei didn't ask the boss, but looked at Li Le and asked.
"I bought some larger fireworks and planned to take them back to set off, so the price was a little higher."
Nie Weiwei didn't think it was because she spent a lot of money, but mainly because she felt like she spent so much money without buying much.
She is no longer the girl who was frugal and reluctant to spend money in the past.
Hearing Li Le say that he bought more, he said nothing more.
"Nie Wei, tell the boss your address." After paying the money, Li Le turned to his brother-in-law and said.
"Uh! Brother-in-law, why are you telling me the address?"
"The boss wants to send the fireworks back to us."
The brother-in-law looked at the car outside the store and thought: Why would my brother-in-law ask someone to deliver it to him? Just pull it back by yourself.
"Just say what you say, there is so much nonsense." Nie Weiwei glared at her brother-in-law and said.
"oh!"
Brother-in-law Nie Wei quickly told the boss the address of his home, which was in the same town. The boss knew the place as soon as he heard it.
"Okay, load these into the car and I'll deliver them to you right away."
After the boss finished speaking, he quickly asked: "Whose house should I send to?"
"Nie Wei, just send it to Nie Wei's house." Li Le said.
"OK."
After the boss went out, Nie Weiwei looked at Li Le and asked, "Hubby, aren't we going back?"
"It's a little early to go back now! Let's take a look around and buy something else."
"Uh-huh!"
Before Nie Weiwei could say anything, her sister-in-law and brother-in-law nodded in agreement.
This left Nie Weiwei speechless and she could only say: "Okay! Then go and see somewhere else." As mentioned before, this town is very small, and Li Le and the others drove around quickly. Again.
Nothing improved. When passing by a butcher shop, Nie Weiwei said: "Husband, wait a minute."
"What's the matter?"
"I see that my parents didn't buy much meat, and since we have to stay for a few more days, we will probably have enough to eat by then. Let's buy some more meat for the family, right?"
"Okay! That's nothing. Let's go, I need to buy more today." After speaking, Li Le stopped the car and prepared to get off.
"Wait." Nie Weiwei quickly pulled him.
"What's the matter?"
"Husband, don't buy too much, or you won't be able to finish it by then."
If others don't understand Li Le, how can she? It doesn’t matter how much you buy.
"Okay, I'll buy less."
"Um!"
After getting off the car, Li Le closed the car door and asked the butcher shop owner, "What kind of meat is there?"
"There's all kinds of meat, pork, beef and mutton."
In a town like this, except for halal butcher shops, other butcher shops sell a mix of meats. This is actually quite normal.
"Then bring me a sheep, a fan of pork, and fifty pounds of beef."
"Ah! Do you want so much?"
"Yes."
"OK."
Just when the boss was about to get the meat, Nie Weiwei came down and said to the boss quickly: "Wait a minute, boss."
Just now she was too cold and didn't want to get out, but she opened the car window a little and happened to hear what Li Le wanted, and she couldn't help it.
"What's wrong, wife?" Li Le asked.
"Why did you buy so much? How long will it take to eat so much meat?" Nie Weiwei said helplessly.
"Uh! This isn't much! I also plan to eat hotpot mutton tonight!"
"You can't eat anything without using so much! Adding these together, it weighs at least two hundred kilograms. How long will it take to eat!"
"It's okay. It won't be a bad day anyway. At worst, let Nie Wei eat more. Look how thin Nie Wei is."
After saying that, without waiting for Nie Weiwei to say anything else, Li Le quickly said: "Okay, that's it! Listen to me this time."
Li Ledu said this, what else could Nie Weiwei say, she could only nod helplessly and said: "Okay then."
Soon the boss moved a whole sheep, a fan of pork, and fifty pounds of beef to the car.
The meat alone cost more than five thousand yuan. To be honest, it was quite cheap. At least it was much cheaper than waiting.
In the imperial capital, if you want to buy these, you will have to spend an extra one or two thousand yuan.
After buying the meat, Li Le drove to the only supermarket in town.
The reason why it is the only one is mainly because although the others are also called supermarkets, they are all small shops.
There are not even fruits and vegetables, so it can be called a supermarket.
Before entering, Li Le said to his sister-in-law and brother-in-law: "You can take whatever you want to eat. My brother-in-law will buy it for you today."
"Thank you, brother-in-law."
"Thank you, brother-in-law."
After the two people finished speaking, they ran in.
Nie Weiwei shook her head and said, "Just spoil them!"
"What do you mean by spoiling them? It doesn't cost much."
Hearing what Li Le said, Nie Weiwei didn't know what to say.
For Li Le, it actually doesn’t cost much, but for others it costs a lot. If you develop a habit, who can afford it?
"Let's go in and buy some fruit. I haven't eaten any fruit since last night."
"Um!"
In the Imperial Capital, it has become a habit to serve a fruit plate after eating every day.
I didn’t buy any fruit at home, probably because fruits are more expensive here in winter.
The two of them entered the supermarket and went directly to the fruit section, but there were very few fruits here.
Basically, there are apples, oranges, and xiangjiang. There are very few other fruits, and they look like they have shriveled over time.
"Two, just buy some apples, oranges and bananas! Forget about anything else."
"Can."
Then the two people started picking apples and oranges. As for bananas, just take two handfuls.
The main thing is that there is nothing to choose from this thing, as long as it is not broken or blackened.
When Li Le and the others finished picking, their sister-in-law and brother-in-law were still in the snack area.
"Look!" Nie Weiwei gave Li Le a roll of her eyes.
Li Le touched his nose and said, "They are just spoiled for choice and don't know what to buy."
Nie Weiwei thought for a while and realized that it was really possible, so she didn't say anything more.
After waiting for another ten minutes, the two of them were still picking. Nie Weiwei glanced at her watch and said, "Hurry up, you two. It's going to be noon soon."
"Coming."
It was a good promise, but more than ten minutes passed, and the two people still hadn't come over, so Li Le had no choice but to go over and take a look.
When Li Le came to the two people, he found that there were not many things in the shopping cart.
He asked, "What's the matter with you? You picked these in a long time?"
"Brother-in-law, many of these are similar. I don't know which one to choose." Brother-in-law Nie Wei scratched his head and said.
Li Le hit him on the head and said, "Children only choose. You are all grown up, so of course you want them all."
"Ah! That's too much."
"What's the matter? It doesn't cost much. Just listen to me and take whatever you like. Don't choose."
"I know, brother-in-law."
It was much faster now. In just a few minutes, the shopping cart was full. In these few minutes, they could choose more things than they could in almost an hour.
It was already half past eleven when I came out of the supermarket after paying the bill.
At this time Nie Weiwei said: "Let's go, the food is probably ready at home."
"Um!"
Li Le started the car and hurried back.
By the time I got home, it was already more than forty minutes later.
"Oh! Why did you come back just now?" The mother-in-law asked quickly when she saw them coming back.
"Mom, have you cooked the food yet?" Nie Weiwei asked.
"Isn't this waiting for you! It's all ready, it's just time to put it in the pot and fry it."
Hearing what her mother-in-law said, Nie Weiwei breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then let me help you."
"Yeah! By the way, why did you buy so many fireworks? They almost filled the living room. How much do they cost?"
"without……"
Nie Weiwei wanted to say it didn't cost much, but she just said no, and her brother-in-law was quicker to talk.
He said directly: "It cost twenty-eight thousand."
"What! Twenty-eight thousand?" The mother-in-law was startled.
