Chapter 145 The difficulty of buying brown sugar is unimaginable
The two of them got out of the taxi and went straight to the first store of the Old Brick Street Sugar and Liquor Company.
I heard the voices of people from afar, and when I got closer, it turned out that there was no one here to maintain order, and I was crowded into a pot of porridge.
The weaker woman just squeezed to the front and was about to pay for it, when she suddenly exerted force in the back, and was suddenly squeezed out of the center and scolded!
The strong young man squeezed in front of him and threw the money directly: "I'll have a hundred yuan!"
Although the temperature is much lower than usual today, the people who buy sugar and squeeze it out of the counter are all covered in water.
Qu Guangquan handed the bag to Zhang Qian, and was about to exert his strength, when he suddenly heard a shout:
"The price has risen, four yuan a catty!"
A staff member squeezed out of the sales department and pasted a piece of red paper on the wall, with four words on it: four pieces of one catty.
Before the paper was pasted, it was torn off by an uncle: "Why are you raising the price? I have to buy it for two yuan a pound!"
"Why, according to the leader's instructions, we are all small soldiers, it doesn't matter if you say it, you go to our leader!"
The uncle blushed and had a thick neck: "I don't look for your leader, I'll look for you! I buy you two catties of brown sugar, and you have violated the state policy by pressing two yuan a catty, and you are now selling four yuan a catty, are you still in the state's sales department! I am a model worker in our province, and I have shaken hands with the leaders of our province!"
"Since you have shaken hands with the provincial leaders, you go to the provincial leaders!" The staff member turned around and wanted to leave.
The old man picked up the crutch and beat him: "You people who hold the country and eat the country, are you worthy of the country by doing these things?"
"Don't rely on the old and sell the old!" the staff jumped and dodged.
The old man swung his crutch and hit the counter, and the candy buyer hurriedly dodged. The salesman looked at it and shouted: "Hurry up, hold him, we won't sell this candy even for four yuan." ”
Two young people suddenly appeared behind the old man, one on the left and one left, and the old man was erected, and the salesman snorted and closed the door from the inside, and said a sentence:
"Four yuan a pound is too expensive, and I don't think it's expensive to sell it for eight yuan tomorrow!"
Originally, many people were very sympathetic to the old man and supported the old man, but as soon as this sentence came out of it, they all pointed to the old man's nose and lost his temper:
"You are so old, what kind of temper do you have, you originally bought it well, four yuan a pound and bought it for four yuan a pound, now it's okay, eight yuan, if tomorrow is still a person who can't move, I think he dares to sell it for ten yuan a pound!"
"Old fool!"
"Old money fan!"
And then there's the banging knock on the door!
Something came from inside: "If you knock on the door again, it will be 100 yuan a pound tomorrow, and I won't sell it to you! The sugar and liquor company has already contacted the public security, and if anyone wants to make trouble, they will not tolerate it!"
Zhang Qian looked at Qu Guangquan's disappointed face and comforted: "Why don't you buy it again tomorrow?"
"I have to go back to Shuanggang tomorrow to have a treat, and I have to come back in the afternoon to take the night train to Yanjing!"
"Why don't I come by myself tomorrow?"
Qu Guangquan looked at the group of people at the door and shook his head, "If you buy one of ten catties and eight catties, I will rest assured that you will come, but it is a few dozen catties, and you can't buy it!
"Hey, I don't know who is happy with the rules, I have to buy brown sugar. Otherwise, if you can't buy it, you won't buy it. I told my mom. ”
"Qianqian, you quit your job for me, and you gave up the indicators of the big collective to Zhang Xiaofen, if I Qu Guangquan can't even buy dozens of catties of brown sugar, how can you let me go to see your parents and your parents, not to mention that when we are old in the future, it will be a lifetime regret to think about it. ”
Qu Guangquan thought for a while, "I'll call my dad." ”
"Brother Guangquan, your father is a pharmaceutical factory, not a sugar and liquor company, where do you ask him to get sugar for you?"
"Haven't you heard from others, the sugar and liquor company has a public security to maintain order, and the only way to do it is to find a way from the public security bureau. ”
found a post and telecommunications office, Qu Guangquan grabbed the phone and called the office of the pharmaceutical factory. It just so happened that Qu Changlong had just returned to the office, and as soon as the situation was said, Qu Changlong said, let's take Zhang Qian to the house that night.
Putting down the phone, Qu Guangquan thought for a while, "Qianqian won't go to the department store, or let's go to the sugar and wine company, at least we can buy another five catties, a little bit of it." I'm worried that my stepmother won't be able to get it if she doesn't get it. ”
Qu Guangquan was worried that Zhang Qian would be angry and wanted to persuade Zhang Qian, but along the way, Zhang Qian, who couldn't go to the department store, comforted Qu Guangquan a lot: "Brother Guangquan, can I not know your intentions? You also did your best." Don't regret it. ”
By the time they arrived at the sugar and liquor company, the line had almost doubled compared to when they left.
An hour later, Qu Guangquan, whose eyes were blackened from the sun outside, finally took the heavy five catties of brown sugar from the salesman.
Qu Guangquan smiled bitterly: "Who would have thought that this country would be the world's largest country in the world of diabetes in the future!"
In 2016, 100 million of China's 1.3 billion people were infected with diabetes, and the prevalence of diabetes was as high as 9.7%, compared with less than 2% in 1988.
- It's good when you still can't buy brown sugar!
At least healthy!
After comforting himself for a long time, Qu Guangquan changed his smile and took Zhang Qian to the department store.
Unexpectedly, the department store was also crowded, except for the counter selling labor protection supplies, the other counters were full of people. The queue for selling candy is the longest, followed by those selling laundry detergent and soap.
Zhang Qian looked at it for a long time, unhappy, and bought a soft ruler from the small commodity cabinet group.
Qu Guangquan pretended to compare: "My tussah is 25 centimeters, forehead, and the net length of the index finger is 13 centimeters." ”
Zhang Qian bit her lip: "If you dare to play hooligan, I will sue my godmother!"
"I want to buy clothes for my daughter-in-law, and my mother absolutely supports it!"
"You can't be a hooligan!"
"When I played a hooligan, my daughter-in-law trembled with happiness!"
"Ignore you—"
At seven o'clock in the evening, Qu Guangquan took the blonde-haired Barbie doll he bought from the department store and came to the family home of the Public Security Bureau.
Qu Ying saw that Barbie was about to rush over, and when she saw that it was in Qu Guangquan's hand, she immediately pouted.
Zhang Qian snatched it from Qu Guangquan's hand: "Xiaoying continues." ”
Qu Ying jumped on the ground, directly gave Zhang Qian a ghost upper body, and whispered in Zhang Qian's ear: "Sister Qianqian, why didn't you come yesterday? My mother bought you a good gift." ”
Zhang Qian smiled: "I don't want it, leave it to Xiaoying." ”
Qu Ying pointed at Qu Guangquan with her finger: "I bought it for you for the little rascal." ”
Zhang Qian turned her head and leaned in Qu Ying's ear: "He's not a little hooligan, he's a big hooligan!"
Qu Ying immediately jumped down and walked to Qu Guangquan's side: "Hmph, my sister said, you are a big hooligan!"
Qu Changlong couldn't help but choke on the water directly, Zhang Qian was so ashamed that her face was flushed, Zhang Xiuya smiled and said, "Silly Nizi, you can't say anything to Xiaoying in the future." She didn't say a word about it, and his brother Xiaoquan had a temper. ”
Qu Changlong coughed for a while, and finally held back his smile: "Xiaoquan, you and Zhang Qian are married, and you are the happiest as parents." Your Aunt Zhang went to Lucheng yesterday and bought a necklace, Qianqian, come and see if you like it?"
Zhang Xiuya took out a jewelry box from her bag and opened a sparkling gold necklace, "Come, Qianqian, let Xiaoquan bring it to you to try." ”
Zhang Qian waved her hand, "Auntie, I don't want it." ”
"Silly Nizi, you can't do without this! Bring a necklace, and you will be a member of our Qu family." It's also the mood of me and Xiaoquan's father. Zhang Xiuya handed the jewelry box to Qu Guangquan: "Bring it to Qianqian, do you look good?"
Zhang Qian squatted down beside Qu Guangquan, lifted the T-shirt back, and a pair of white pigeons half-leaked out, Qu Guangquan couldn't help but look down, and carefully put the necklace on Zhang Qian's neck.
The golden necklace outlines the pink curves, and a sparkling ruby shines in front of the crescent-shaped heart clasp.
"Qianqian, I wish you happiness. Zhang Xiuya hugged Qu Ying: "Are you Sister Qianqian beautiful?"
"It's so beautiful, prettier than Barbie!"
Zhang Xiuya took Zhang Qian's hand with her other hand: "Xiaoquan's mother is a hard-working woman, she has worked hard to cultivate such an excellent child as Xiaoquan, I hope you can treat him like your own mother." ”
Zhang Qian nodded seriously.
Zhang Xiuya pointed to a big bag on the sofa: "Hey, I really didn't expect it to be so difficult to buy a brown sugar, even when there were three years of natural disasters, I wanted to buy brown sugar, and I didn't make it so difficult." Unexpectedly, I bought these dozens of catties of brown sugar today and made a few phone calls, but no one dared to take this job. In the end, there was no way, so I went to find our director, and the director took me to find the director of the second light bureau in charge, and then gave you special approval. ”
Zhang Qian was so shocked that she looked at Qu Guangquan!
Qu Guangquan was also shocked and shrugged!
That's an exaggeration.
