ps: Thank you readers for "Tao Qingshui" and "wanglg" to vote for a monthly ticket to Heaven respectively, Heaven is very happy, thank you for your support ^_^
The target plane is Sufang Village, Fuping County, Shaanxi Province, in the Yanhuang Continent, where the rural modernization was just completed half a month ago, and the whole village is clean and tidy...... The village path is paved with black asphalt and surrounded by slender saplings, which are protected by wooden rigging around them.
Each family lived in a newly built brick house with a single courtyard with yellow and white courtyard walls and a traditional Chinese red courtyard gate. The courtyard gate is square and wide, allowing easy access to motorcycles and cars of later generations. Inside the courtyard gate are two side-by-side bungalows, three each, a total of six brick houses, as for the two corners are arranged with kitchens and toilets, and there are bathrooms built next to the toilets, and two sets of solar water heaters are neatly arranged on them.
"Wife, hurry up!" Liu Wenheng, who was in charge of the house, shouted loudly into the house.
"Coming, coming, dead old man, you know to urge me!" As the answer from the house came, a rural woman in her forties stepped out, wearing a dark yellow sè lapel blouse with a pair of velvet pants printed with a dark sè floral pattern, and a scarf on her head to isolate the windswept yellow sand and dust that existed everywhere in the northwest.
"Hey, old woman, how did you put on all the clothes you just made two days ago?" Liu Wenheng glanced at it and asked dissatisfiedly.
"What's wrong?"
"Isn't this what you plan to wear again during the New Year, and now that you wear it, what will you do then?"
"What's there! Now the cloth is so cheap, when the time comes, I will cut 2 zhang and make a new set, isn't it be~"
"Tsk, old lady, you know how to spend money indiscriminately!"
"What is the meaning of spending money indiscriminately, look at you, don't you also put on this new coat!" Liu Wenheng's wife, Zhao Lanhua, pointed to her husband's new clothes and asked dissatisfied.
"Aren't I afraid of going out and being embarrassed by my poor dress, and making the people in the city laugh?"
"Oh~~ It's okay to be embarrassed with me, yes, ah! As long as your face is important, I don't want this yellow woman's face, yes!"
"Okay, okay, I can't talk about you, don't talk about it! By the way, why hasn't Daquan been cleaned up yet? Daquan? Daquan! Husband Liu Wenheng spelled "sharp teeth" no matter how he couldn't argue with his wife who had lived together for more than 20 years, so he quickly diverted his attention according to his summed up life experience.
"Dad, I'm alright!" The voice of a young man came from the front yard Liu Daquan, Liu Wenheng's only son, and he was an old man, he was only going to go at the age of 32, and it was already very late in the countryside, and he had two older brothers in front of him, both of whom died unfortunately because of their poor family at that time. Before the Red Party's average land rights, Zhao Wenheng belonged to the Chi peasant class, with half a mud house and four walls. After the Red Party occupied Shaanxi, it was given a few acres of land, but it was limited by the level of productivity and the natural environment in the northwest at that time, and it was only mixed with food and clothing every year, but it was far better than before. In the past six months, he has witnessed the great changes in the mountain villages of Shaanxi, and his village has been carrying out large-scale construction for more than two months, building asphalt roads that he has never seen before, building brand-new tiled houses, and installing electric lights and water heaters that have never been used.
When I first moved in, the whole family was nervous for a while...... It seems that there is a voice in my heart that always says that living such a good life is a crime, and if you want to be retributed, you will lose your life! However, with the adaptation of 2 weeks to the new environment, the whole family has fallen in love with this new life, and once again firmly believes in their own thoughts, no matter who comes, as long as they are enemies with the border area, and with the Red Party who gives themselves such a good rì as enemies, they want to deprive themselves of their current good rìzi, and there is nothing else, Lao Tzu will have a life, fight with them, and other book friends are watching:!
Having said that, today Liu Wenheng planned to lead his family to the county seat to buy goods, and specially borrowed a motorcycle tricycle from the village chief's transportation brigade. Since living in a new house and using electricity, Liu Wenheng has found that his original furniture is too shabby, so he has been planning to change his belongings. But because there are so many villagers living in the new home, the two or three carpenters in the village are now full of work, and they will not have time to come to their own homes to make furniture for a while.
Coupled with his own carpentry skills, it was really difficult to convince the public, and finally the family decided to go to the county town to buy furniture and kitchen dishes and chopsticks. Of course, another reason to go to the county seat is to listen to the people in the village, there is a new store, specializing in selling furniture, pots and pans and other daily necessities, the three families discussed for a whole day, and finally gritted their teeth and stomped their feet, digging out more than 270 copper dollars buried in the wooden box in the backyard, which was originally saved for his son to marry his daughter-in-law, and this time he planned to take it out first for emergencies. Since the Red Party opened the system of purchasing labor services and settling wages, the son who works in the village transportation brigade and the old woman who helps the soles of his shoes have both had income, adding up to more than 30 copper yuan a month, and he will soon be able to save a new "daughter-in-law book" for his son.
"Get in the car, let's go!" The son who drove a motorcycle tricycle in the village transport team greeted his parents, and after the second old man climbed into the car, he turned the engine switch on the right-hand driving handle, accompanied by the sound of the "sudden" motor, drove out of the courtyard gate, and galloped towards the main road leading to the county seat.
Half an hour later, the county seat of Fuping.
"What is this?" Liu Wenheng put his hand on the pergola, looked at the slightly huge building in the distance, and said in amazement.
"Dad, it's not called a store, it's called 'Jiayi'!" The son, who had a good head, quickly read out the name of the shop that the villagers had said yesterday.
At this time, not far from the three of them, there is a square building covering a wide area, about 10 meters high, blue sè and yellow sè are distributed in each other, and at the bottom is a spacious parking lot, at this time there are many agricultural three-wheeled motorcycles. If the Yanhuang people of later generations can walk here, they will immediately exclaim, this is a copy of the later generations of 'IKEA', but the name of the store was changed to 'Jiayi' by a little comrade very unscrupulously.
"Let's go, go in and have a look, hey! By the way, Daquan, there are so many three-wheeled motorcycles, what should we do when we come out and can't find our own? Liu Wenheng, who was thick and fine, asked.
"Hehe, Dad, don't worry, don't you see a set of numbers in front of the front of the car?" Son Liu Daquan pointed to the blue and white license plate in front of him and said: "There is an iron plate on my set of keys, and the numbers on it are the same as those on the car. ”
"Yes, that's good!" Liu Wenheng nodded after hearing that his son had a way, and didn't ask more, but commented: "But this 'ghost drawing talisman' is too eye-consuming, I look at the comparison and the comparison is almost the same, and it will definitely be difficult to find it when the time comes!" ”
"Dad, that's called Arabic numerals, and the Hou University in the village said when he was teaching at night that ours is 'Shaanxi 3684291'......" corrected his son, who had been attending night school at night.
"Okay, okay, you know how to read in school, it's good to have a future~~" Liu Wenheng, who had never read a 520 novel in his life and had a headache, shook his head and hurriedly walked towards the entrance.
Due to the consideration of technical sensitivity and confidentiality, the entrance of the 'Jiayi' store does not use the sensor door of later generations. Instead, choose a mechanical swing door. After entering, it was the manual bag storage place, and under the guidance of the staff dressed in uniform blue and yellow clothing, Liu Wenheng deposited the basket he was carrying here, and took away a digital card strung with an elastic band.
"Old woman, take it, don't lose it, they don't recognize people!" Liu Wenheng commanded in a loud voice.
"Alright, alright, let's go, lose someone!" Feeling the strange gaze of the people around her, Zhao Lanhua felt a little embarrassed, and pushed her husband and walked forward quickly.
Walking 5 meters inside, the line of sight suddenly opened up, and the first thing that caught the eyes of several people was the transparent leap floor, and an escalator (electromechanical) in the middle went directly to the third floor of the "Jiayi" hypermarket.
"Dad, you see, this thing can go up on its own, good novel:." Liu Daquan carefully stepped on it, stomped on it, and said curiously.
"Well, it's a little strange, is this an ancient trick that is circulating in the old man's mouth?" Liu Wenheng touched the black sè handrail that also moved upwards, and said to himself.
"Brother, this is called an elevator." A middle-aged man in his forties or fifties wearing glasses in front of him turned around and explained with a smile.
"Elevators? Oh! Big brother, thank you, thank you! ”
"You're welcome, my brother is here for the first time?"
"Yes, we are all from Sufang Village, Fuping County, and we usually don't go out of the village, and we haven't seen anything in the world, so I'll make you laugh!" Liu Wenheng replied embarrassedly.
"Haha, my brother is so polite! I wasn't much better than you when I first came, and I'll tell you the truth, when I first opened, I was a day and didn't go out here, haha, now I'm familiar with it, it's much better~~" The middle-aged man with glasses in front laughed and comforted.
"Oh~~ Then what should I pay attention to when I go up in a while?"
"Actually, it's quite simple, brother, you pay more attention to the label of each product, the white sè part in front is the commodity code, record it with the pencil white paper issued by the salesman on the third floor, and the red sè in the back is the price, you can remember it or not, the salesperson will tell you the total price when you check out, but my habit is to write it down by yourself, and then calculate the account is not the same!"
"Oh~~~ Got it, got it, thank you!!" Liu Wenheng, who felt the other party's "cheats", said very gratefully.
Upon going upstairs, one group after another was quickly caught in the eye, with beautiful and beautiful house layouts, which blinded the eyes of three people like lightning (there was no TV cabinet, because there was no such thing on the target plane at this time). Referencing the layout of the later "IKEA", the entire third floor is a display area, and the second floor is a pick-up and checkout area. The customer only needs to copy down the number of the goods on the second floor, and hand it to the salesman on the second floor, who will lead the customer to the corresponding warehouse area to pick up the goods, although this is not the same as the "IKEA" practice in later generations, and inevitably increases a lot of manpower compared with later generations, but considering the education level of the people of Yanhuang in the target plane, the cost is relatively high, and after a period of time, the people of Yanhuang are accustomed to being familiar with this way of picking up goods and the rules of the storage location of the goods, and they can complete the pick-up link by themselves. However, there is no need to worry about the extra salesmen, the Red Party plans to gradually open the "Jiayi" chain stores across the country in the future, and there will be enough jobs for them.
At the same time, because of the large number of minerals and other resources in the target plane obtained by Wang Fan at zero cost, and sold to related enterprises in the main plane to obtain a large amount of funds, the actual cost of purchasing these copycat IKEA goods is close to zero. In the newly opened "Jiayi" hypermarket in the target plane, the pricing of many goods is extremely low, and the basic standard is to refer to the total annual income of the family, and the household goods of the whole family can be replaced. Of course, in order to avoid the ungentlemanly behavior of "taking and not saying a word", the 'Jiayi' hypermarket not only reminded the shopping mall regulations of one penalty of 10 for stealing from time to time on the radio, but also emphasized that once the stealer is caught, he will not only stand on a small wooden platform and hold a small white flag of "please do not steal" for half an hour, but also notify the village where he is located, so that the village chief can come directly to collect the person, that is, "break the fortune and lose people", and affect the welfare policies such as land division and money sharing that he will enjoy in the future.
Therefore, in the more than half a month since it opened, except for two cases of mischief caused by children being ignorant and hiding things, no real intentional thieves have been found for the time being. After all, valuable things such as sofas and beds are very large and cannot be hidden, and the price of gadgets such as glass bottles, plates, dishes and chopsticks is very cheap, basically 2 coppers each, which is only equivalent to a few cents in later generations. What's more, the people who shop in the store are all villagers, and they don't see each other when they look up, how can they gain a foothold in the village after they are really caught.
Two hours later, Liu Wenheng's family, who had been carefully turned around several times on the third floor of 'Jiayi', began to fill out their shopping list seriously, of course, this work had to be handed over to their son, after all, as long as he could understand those "ghost drawings". But it doesn't matter if no one knows each other, as long as you talk to the waiter standing next to the goods on the third floor, they will be very serious about helping customers fill out the shopping list after a month of intensive training.
"Dad, I want a couch and a big bed, and bookshelves!" Liu Daquan said first.
"Old man, you see those glass bottles and plates and saucers are very beautiful and cheap, let's buy more and go back, good novels:!" Zhao Lanhua, who usually cooks at home, saw those beautiful seasoning glass bottles and all kinds of plates, her eyes straightened and she couldn't move anymore, and she interjected excitedly.
"Don't worry, let me think about it, Daquan, you have a clear head, help me calculate, how much is the big sofa, how much is the big bed, and how much is the bookshelf? Do we have enough money with us? ”
"Dad, no problem, we brought 270 copper yuan, the sofa is only 20 copper yuan, the big bed is 27 copper yuan, the bookshelf is only 15 copper yuan, and the glass bottles, plates, dishes and chopsticks that my mother wants, also only need 2 copper (1 copper yuan is equal to 100 copper) one, very cheap, even if you buy half a car, it won't cost 20 copper yuan!"
"That's it, that's it, it's better to count it all!" After Zhao Lanhua heard her son's words, the wrinkles on her face bloomed happily.
"That's good, but we can't waste it too much, if we can leave some money over it, it's always good, in this way, let's buy two big beds, a sofa, a bookshelf, no more!" After calculating, Liu Wenheng, who found that he could save some copper yuan, was afraid of being poor and made the mistake of picking the door again, pondered for a long time, and finally reluctantly increased the shopping funds from 120 copper yuan to 150 copper yuan under the eager eyes and constant persuasion of his wife and only child.
Holding a shopping list full of lines and rows of items, Liu Wenheng's family lined up to the pick-up office on the second floor.
"Boss, trouble, this is our family's purchase list!" Liu Wenheng politely handed over the list as he spoke.
"Okay, please come with me!" The salesperson in the "Jiayi" overalls replied with a smile according to the hospitality essentials mentioned during the intensive training.
Five minutes later, Liu Wenheng's family and waiter, who were pushing a cart full of goods, returned to the location they had just met.
"Uncle, these are all on the list, you check them!" The salesman asked with a smile.
"Ah, thank you, I'll give you the money!" Liu Wenheng was embarrassed to look at the items carefully, so he quickly took out the money from his personal pocket.
"No, no, uncle, did you see the exit ahead? Go there to pay the money, and don't forget, after checking out, you can go to the elevator next to the elevator to get a free white Ji bun bacon with the shopping receipt! ”
"Receipts? Baiji steamed pork with bacon? Okay, okay! After listening to Liu Laohan, who didn't understand a little bit of understanding, he agreed with some mumu chirps.
Twenty minutes later, the 'Jiayi' parking lot.
"I'll just say it! How can I really send you something with a good heart! Liu Wenheng scolded and got into the car and said.
"Okay, isn't it just a matter of a few coppers!" The wife, who was eating the bacon in Baiji bun, replied dissatisfiedly. It turns out that the "Jiayi" hypermarket Baiji steamed pork is only given away for free, and if you want to buy it again, you need to spend your own money to buy it, the price is not expensive, one copper for one. Finally, a family of three came to shop, but it was not good for three people to only share a white Ji bun with bacon meat ^_^
"Dad, don't be depressed, No, give you one!" The son, who also eats with a mouth full of oil, is tempted by food while persuading.
"You bastard boy is still a little filial!" Although his mouth was unforgiving, his right hand still took the meat bun quickly, bit it hard, and commented while chewing: "Don't say it, the meat is really enough!" ”
"If you want me to say, Dad, this is really not expensive, a copper and a meat bun, why don't I go back and buy some and take it home for dinner?"
"Come on, come on, don't be at home and don't know that firewood and rice are expensive, talk about it next time, talk about it next time!" Liu Wenheng heard that his son wanted to spend money again, and his liver trembled in distress, so he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Drive quickly, there are still a lot of things to do when you go home!" ”
"Oh~~~ I know, then I'll drive, sit down, let's go~~~"
As the sound of the "sudden" three-wheeled motorcycle sounded again, Liu Wenheng's family, who had returned with a full load, thought of the hope and rush for a new life, and happily galloped towards their home.
