The department store is like an iron triangle with doors and windows tiled on the northeast corner of Grand Cross Street. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

It is said that it is a department store, but in fact it is only open on the first floor, and it has nothing to do with the real Chinese department store under the Trade Bureau.

It can really be called a department store, and there are no more than ten in the country, and they are qualified to purchase from the first-level station in the era of overall marketing.

The county-level shopping malls and supply and marketing cooperatives need to purchase from secondary or tertiary wholesale stations.

The lower the level of the wholesale channel, the more limited the variety of goods that can be supplied, and the more expensive it is.

With the development of the private economy, this type of procurement mode basically disappeared in the coastal areas at the end of the 70s, and many supply and marketing units would take low-priced goods from privately run collective enterprises.

Only the central and western regions, where the private economy is underdeveloped, continued this procurement model until the early eighties.

The so-called second floor is only available in the eastern half, and the western half is a large bungalow. It should be where the leader works.

There is a shop window on the west side, which is a non-staple food department, selling tobacco, alcohol, sugar tea, and snacks.

The northernmost side is the back door that Li He just passed, and inside is a large courtyard, which is a necessary place for employees to commute to and from work, and goods from the warehouse of the department store are also transported in from here.

At the gate of the department store, there are many people holding cardboard boxes to rent and sell villain books, and there is a circle of children around.

In an era of extreme scarcity of material and spiritual life, picture books have become the best companion for children to acquire knowledge and entertainment.

Li He asked the fourth, "Buy it or not".

The fourth said, "It's not fun to coax children." ”

In department stores, there are shelves wherever they are against the wall, and the front of the shelves is naturally a counter.

From daily hardware tools such as pliers and nails, stationery items such as notebooks and pens, to furniture, bicycles, sewing machines, etc., there are basically them.

In order to collect money and find it convenient, iron wires are pulled up above each set of counters, and iron clips are strung on the wires, and the documents and money are sandwiched on the iron clips and fly around, which is quite spectacular.

Li He first checked the tickets in his hand, and went over to scan the goods at the counter one by one, without thinking about keeping the tickets in his hand at all.

Before in the capital, although there was no shortage of tickets in my hand, it was too troublesome to take the train to bring it back.

Now that I have money and tickets in my hand, I am close to home, and I can carry a few more woven bags home.

First of all, we started with the clothing cloth counter, where cloth cabinets were placed with fabrics of various colors, and the salesperson often held a wooden ruler in his hand.

Li He directly gave the ticket to the salesman, "Comrade, just buy these."

Li He asked the fourth brother to choose a bright color, and the fourth said, "Brother is too much, right?"

The salesman quoted the price of each fabric, and asked Li He uncertainly, "Comrade, even if you are given the cheapest coarse cloth, it will cost more than 200 yuan, do you have so much money? Don't have nothing to tease people."

Li and the local tyrant took out a handful of great unity, "Comrade, just measure."

The salesman looked at the big unity on the table, and was shocked, it's not that he hasn't seen the magnanimous, but he has never seen such a one-time money, and let a half-grown girl come out to choose fabrics, isn't it a joke?

But in the end, according to the cloth selected by the fourth child, measure the size, cut a small hole with scissors, and then tear it with both hands, and the sound is very good.

Then the abacus crackled, "Comrade, a total of 375 yuan and 3 cents."

Li He went to other counters to buy shoes, nail clippers, ashtrays, stationery, pencils, and wires and plugs, as long as he had a ticket in his hand.

Since Li He began to buy cloth, many people have secretly paid attention, and many people have slowly calculated in their hearts, from the time they entered the door to the present, they have bought at least 1,000 yuan of things, and they can't help but be speechless.

By the time Bian Mei came over, Li He had already received two large woven bags in his hands, which were full.

Bian Mei stopped Li He, who was eager to buy, and asked in a low voice, "Are you still buying?" I heard just now that there is a rich man in the mall, what to buy. I didn't think it was you."

Li He glanced at the eyes around him staring at him, felt a little too excited, and hurriedly took the fourth child out of the mall.

Li He said to Bian Mei, "I haven't bought it yet." ”

Bian Mei said in disbelief, "You still buy that ticket, I'm going to give it to you for a few years."

Li He nodded, and gave the money and tickets to the fourth child, "You go to the grocery store and order more candy, buy them all, and I'll buy tobacco and alcohol."

Li He turned around and bought all the tobacco and alcohol tickets for high-end Moutai and Zhonghua, and a bottle of Moutai alone cost three yuan and five, and he also bought four bottles and six cigarettes.

When Bian Mei saw that Li and his brother and sister were buying good things, her heart was not shocked to describe it, spending other people's wages for several years at a time was not something that ordinary people did, so she asked, "Aren't you going to school? Where did you get rich? I don't know about your family situation."

Li He sorted out the contents of the bag and said with a smile, "Don't we have a school living allowance? This is what I have saved for several years." But I still want to thank you, I can't spend any money without you."

Bian Mei said angrily, "But you can't spend it like this, no one can help but lose like this."

"It's okay, I'll be working in the next year, and this will be able to turn around again."

Bian Mei suddenly said enviously, "It's better for you college students, no matter what unit you come out, you can still divide the room, the salary is also high, and everything is better than us."

Li He said, "It's not about yet." It's almost noon, I'll invite you to dinner, is there any private restaurant here, let's go and have a meal."

Bian Mei said disdainfully, "What kind of private pipe, that kind of black-hearted private restaurant, don't look at it now, maybe it will be banned one day, and speculation can have good results." Let's go to the state-run restaurant, I like the boiled fish fillet the most, slippery, delicious very good, I have a ticket, I know the master inside. Let's go, come with me".

Li He couldn't answer the conversation, so he had to follow.

The state-run restaurant is just two blocks away from the department store, and there is a halal restaurant opposite.

In a very large place where a state-run hotel is quite large, it is very high-end to be able to hold a wedding banquet in such a place.

To the left of the entrance is the ticket office. Pay the money and invoice the aunt for everything you eat, and then go to the various outlets to change the food, and no one will serve you the food.

The restaurant was foggy, there were a lot of people sitting, and many of the tables were hot pots.

Finding a vacant seat, Li He said, "You give me the ticket, I'll pay the bill, what do you eat?"

Bian Mei said, "No, I'll call someone over." ”

Bian Mei beckoned, and a little girl wearing an apron ran over and said with a smile, "Sister Mei, you haven't been here for a long time, I'll give you what to eat today."

Bian Mei skillfully reported the names of a few dishes, and then turned her head and asked Li He, "What else do you want to eat?"

Li He said, "Add another braised pork, just three of us, enough to eat."

When the little girl turned around and left, Li He said, "Are you quite familiar, if you change me, people will not have noses, and eyes are not eyes."

Bian Mei said arrogantly, "That also depends on the unit, we are a department store." (To be continued.) )
