Chapter 131: Nails Are Too Expensive
Wang Changsuo patted his head: "Today's events are so smooth, I am so happy and confused." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Ma Jingzi is a must-have for beating reed foil, and I forgot about it.
"Thanks to you, let's go, Lamei, let's go to the Chengguan Supply and Marketing Cooperative. This one is not heavy, and it is easy to carry. If you buy it, you can leave quickly, or you will have to make people wait. ”
Lamei: "It's too late, you see their old cow is broken, and they can't go fast." ”
The two of them came to the Chengguan Supply and Marketing Cooperatives and bought a few catties of hemp. Lamei asked the price of the nails again, between eight and three inches, which was more than a pound of money.
"This nail is expensive, isn't it?" said Lamei. I remember that the nails in the previous life were only more than a pound of money, and the price in this life has caught up with that of the previous life, and the money in the previous life is more than ten times more than that of this life.
"Expensive?" the salesman looked at her, who was not much higher than the counter, and said with a smile: "You kid still know how expensive and cheap? Let me tell you, this is the time to come, if you come ten days and a half early, you can't buy it for any amount of money - out of stock!"
"Could it be that this is also influenced by the great steelmaking?" asked Lamei.
"Of course, nails have been out of stock since the beginning of steelmaking. The salesman said, looked warily out of the counter, shook his head, and said nothing.
Lamei understood and knew that this was also affected, and the hardware products in this world were expensive, including bicycles. Otherwise, the scrapped bicycles from the previous life would not have been sold for this price.
Forty yuan a piece, it is more than four hundred yuan in the previous life, you can buy a brand new and good bicycle, and it is recycled with ten yuan in the previous life.
Then go to the previous life to buy nails, which is expensive for three cents and five cents, and the money in this life is more than a dime and a catty.
"Let's buy the nails and go, what if we run out of stock?"
Wang Changsuo also listened to the conversation between the two people in his heart, and said worriedly.
"We're not going to buy it today. Lamei shook her head: "We don't know which number should be used, you go back and ask the carpenter, how much do you need, make a list, and I'll buy it." ”
Wang Changsuo: "What if there is no more?"
Lamei: "No. Godfather, let's go!" said, pulling his father out of the supply and marketing cooperative.
"Lamei, last year's steel smelting, all the nails in the house were handed in. I'm really worried that the nails will be out of stock again. ”
Lamei: "Since the goods are here, how can they be sold out in a while! Godfather, you can give me this task, I will definitely buy you nails on time." ”
Wang Changsuo saw the sincerity of what Lamei said, so he had no choice but to "endure the pain and cut his love".
In his mind, nails are a precious thing. Last year, the steel was smelted, and all the iron tools of every household were taken away, and even the nails on the walls were raised, although they all became scrap iron lumps, but the things were gone.
Scarcity is expensive, and it is natural that nails are more expensive. If the steel refining is high and tidal again, maybe the new nails will not be sold. If you really can't buy it, won't you be blind when you build a house!
The father and daughter thought about their own thoughts and walked in the direction of home step by step.
Although Lamei often travels back and forth between Wangdian and the city, she always rides a bicycle and walks in the spatial passages.
Wang Changsuo's height of one meter seventy-five, Lamei is less than one meter one, the two people's steps and forks are very different, Wang Changsuo intends to slow down, and Lamei has to trot all the way to keep up.
Ever since she got her bike, Lamei has never walked a step down. And not yet, it's not outside. Thinking about his little short legs, it's really a little scary.
My bike is in the space passage, but I can't ride it out.
When I think of bicycles, I immediately recall the middle-aged man named Runcheng I met in the bicycle market. When he returned to the village, he immediately shouted about the sale of bicycles. If it reaches the ears of the captain Wang Guilan, will he ask questions? If he does, how will he say to him?
Since his rebirth, although his parents have been by his side, when it comes to taking care of himself, he is far less than Wang Guilando. Wang Guilan is her real protector, and this kindness is never forgotten.
Today, I gave my father two bicycles, and I also gave Wang Guilan one. Otherwise, people's public opinion will not let go, and their hearts will not be calm.
In his previous life, he still had two bicycles in his rented home, and he had to leave one for his brother Wang Guiqiang. In the next year, he will be out of Muramura to go to junior high school, and the bicycle is the best gift for him.
Then give the other one to Wang Guilan.
But what if my father didn't have enough money to build a house? For now, the bicycle was his only thing! If he gave it away, it would be difficult to get any more money!
What to do?
To give or not to give?
I suddenly remembered that there was a mortgage in Majiazhuang Ma Abacus, with a deposit of ten yuan. If you take it out and sell it, you can get more than ten or twenty yuan.
Yes!
In the past, I was going to forget it like this, but now I am in a hurry to wait for the money, why give such a big bargain to Ma Abacus. What's more, the eggs are exchanged for the small, and he has not made less money.
What about ransom?
In reality, the money is only more than two yuan, which is far from enough. There are still more than 20 yuan in the previous life, and in this life, you can't talk about it, and you have to prepare to buy pickles for Wang Da's belly. Five dollars a day can only last for four days.
Where to get the money?
Lamei thought about it for a long time, and felt that she could only ask for it from her father.
"Godfather, I don't think you're very happy, are you afraid that you won't be able to buy nails in the future?"
Seeing that her father had been walking with her head down, Lamei asked tentatively.
"It's not. I'm calculating what I should buy, how much I should buy, how much I need, and how much money I need.
"Oh, what are you calculating?"
"I can't calculate it after a long time. The main reason is that there is nowhere to buy food, and it can't be cooked when it is bought. When you are ramming and pulling out the frame, you have to take care of people's food. The little points on the team are not enough to stuff the teeth, and people don't have the strength to work. ”
"You don't have to worry about food, the white-haired grandmother has it, I'll ask for it. You just have to think about the supplies in the room. ”
"I bought the reeds, and two thousand bricks were forty pieces, which is the number that was set in stone. Then there are doors and windows and nails, doors and windows have to be customized, and I don't know the price yet.
"We asked the nail just now, and it costs more than ten yuan anyway. Excuse me, I want to borrow from people, and I can't worry about it. It's just, when will the white-haired grandmother give this blank?"
The white-haired grandmother said that she had to fight it now, and it would be dry in two months. ”
"Well, don't worry, talk now, you have to prepare for two months. First with reed foil, buy everything else. ”
Lamei: "If you're afraid that you won't be able to buy nails in the future, you give me ten yuan, and I'll buy them for you." I'm small, so I can give them a bargain and give them less. ”
Wang Changsuo: "The public can also bargain?"
"Why not, at least make them cheaper. I'm a little kid playing tricks on them, what can they do? ”
