Chapter 139: The Village Flower in the Chronicle 4
"Ruoruo, you and Yumei are waiting in the bookstore, and you two will do something with your aunt."
Although Xu Fengqin didn't explain, Lin Ruoruo could probably guess what they were going to do, now there is a shortage of things in the supply and marketing cooperatives, sometimes you have to have money and tickets to buy things, and those who don't care can't stop buying things, so there is a black market.
Lin Ruoruo guessed that they should go to the black market.
"Uncle and aunt, go ahead, I will wait for you to come back with Yumei in the bookstore."
In this way, Lin Ruoruo and Lin Yumei were arranged in the bookstore.
After a while, Lin Ruoruo said to Lin Yumei: "I think there is something, you wait for me here for a while, and I will come in a while." ”
Although Lin Yumei felt strange in her heart, she didn't get to the bottom of it, and only said: "Then you come back quickly, otherwise you should be worried when my mother and your eldest aunt come back and you won't see you." ”
"Okay, I'll be quick."
After speaking, Lin Ruoruo left.
Then she went to a medicine store very purposefully.
There was not a single customer in the herb shop, only a young man who was very well dressed and was standing at the counter, holding a book and reading it intently.
Lin Ruoruo knocked on the counter, and the young man looked up at Lin Ruoruo, and then blushed a little.
"You...... What do you need. ”
Lin Ruoruo said directly: "Six coins for white nuts, five dollars for Angelica Angelica, and seven dollars for tribulus terrestris...... That's all, how much? ”
When the man heard this, he reported a number: "A total of two pieces and one dime." ”
Two dollars and a dime are actually not less, after all, an egg is only a few cents now.
Lin Ruoruo paid the money and then left.
She didn't know that after she left, the small door leading to the backyard of the medicinal herb store opened, and an old man with pale sideburns came out, and when he saw the little apprentice staring at the door, he couldn't help but say, "What's the daze, do you remember that the medicinal properties of the medicinal materials have been recorded?" ”
Han Yang immediately came back to his senses when he heard this, in fact, he had already written it down just now, but he was interrupted just now, and now his mind was full of the girl just now.
So it's more awkward.
Cui Shunian said sternly: "Keep remembering, if you can't remember it, don't eat this meal." ”
Most of the heavens and the earth are not as big as eating, although Lin Ruoruo's temperament is a little dusty and her appearance is a little outstanding, but it is not as important as the rice bowl for eating.
Han Yang immediately left Lin Ruoruo behind, but in the end he left traces in his heart, not much, but there is.
After Lin Ruoruo came back, Lin Yumei asked curiously, "What did you buy?" ”
Lin Ruoruo said: "I bought something, it's not expensive, I'll tell you when I make it, but you can't tell others that I went out to buy something just now." ”
Lin Yumei was still very righteous to her little friend, and promised: "No problem, I won't say anything to anyone." ”
At this time, Xu Fengqin and Lin Yumei's mother hadn't come back yet, Lin Ruoruo and they were standing at the door of the only bookstore in the town, the bookstore was not big, there were a few people in it, Lin Ruoruo said to Lin Yumei: "Otherwise, let's go in and have a look!" ”
Lin Yumei was a little frightened about the place where the reader wanted to enter, she had been in the first grade, and she didn't know many words, and the bookstore was a sacred place for her, but thinking that Lin Ruoruo had been reading, she might like it more, so she agreed.
"Alright! Let's go in and see. ”
Lin Ruoruo entered the bookstore and found that the situation inside was even worse than she imagined, but there was basically nothing in the book, and some of them were some celebrity quotations that would never go wrong to promote the characteristics of the times, and the only bright spot was that the bookstore would regularly subscribe to monthly magazines.
Lin Ruoruo looked through it and found that there were still some good prose and novels in it, although they were also more characteristic of the times, but they were not so official and upright.
She didn't read it for a while, but when she was about to close the book, she saw that the magazine was soliciting manuscripts, which made Lin Ruoruo interested, read it again, and wrote down the mailing address before closing the magazine.
The two came out of the bookstore, and not long after, Xu Fengqin and Lin Yumei's mothers each came over with half a bag of things.
Xu Fengqin and Lin Yumei's mother saw the two of them waiting obediently, smiled and said a few words, and then left together.
When I went back, I was still sitting in the ox cart when I came, and I returned home with a bump, Lin Ruoruo was pulled by Xu Fengqin to her house for a meal, and then she hurried back.
Today she took a day off and didn't have to go to work, and when she got home, she took out the medicinal herbs she bought today from her bag, and then began to boil the plaster according to the recipe of the whitening cream.
The process is a bit boring, but it's bearable in the days when there's no entertainment.
After boiling for a long time, Lin Ruoruo boiled about 500 grams of whitening cream.
After the boiling was completed, the system was used to test it, and it was found that the whitening cream was successful, and then she began to use it, and it was indeed effective.
She couldn't use up the 500 grams of whitening cream herself, so she planned to give some to her friends.
Lin Yumei: "Why did you call me to your house today, and you are still mysterious?" ”
Lin Ruoruo smiled and said, "I have good things for you." ”
"Show me something good."
"Don't you want to know why I'm so white? Tell you why today. ”
"Say why."
"Don't worry, I'll go for something like that."
About 500 grams of whitening cream is naturally impossible to take out at once, close to the sea, naturally there is no shortage of containers, she got some, put it in the shell after washing and disinfecting with boiling water, and then took it out to Lin Yumei.
"What is this?"
"Whitening cream, apply it to the face for a period of time, you can whiten it, even if it is blown by the sea breeze, it will not dry up and molt the face, it is especially easy to use."
Lin Yumei felt a little magical, and she couldn't believe it, how could there be such a good thing, even the alabaster bought by the supply and marketing cooperatives couldn't do it.
"Is it really as good as you say?"
"This is natural, I've been using it myself lately, otherwise I wouldn't dare to let you use it!"
Lin Yumei's heart is undeniably moved, she has also reached the age of beauty, although the girls in the same village are almost black, but isn't there a white one?
If you can turn white, who wants to have a black face.
But here's the problem, such a useful thing, I'm afraid it costs a lot of money!
She doesn't have any money!
Lin Yumei thought that if it wasn't expensive, she would tell her mother, but she didn't know if her mother would give her money.
"And how much is that?"
Although Lin Ruoruo couldn't hear her heart, she could almost guess her concerns.
Lin Ruoruo smiled and said: "These are not much, you take them and use them first, and then talk about them if they are easy to use." ”
And such good things.
Then unexpectedly, Lin Yumei received the whitening cream.
sent away Lin Yumei, who looked cheerful and happy, and Lin Ruoruo was also very happy.
There are still more than two hundred yuan on her body, and it is not a small amount of money for a person in this era, but she doesn't think it's too much, after all, she is used to living a delicate life, so she wants to make money.
As for how to make money, if there was no exchange system, she might have waited for the policy to open up a bit, and then started a small business, and then went to school to make money.
Since there is an exchange system, and I have given such a good whitening cream, I don't need to use it in vain.
I don't need money for Lin Yumei's whitening cream, firstly, because Lin Yumei is her friend, and the little girl is simple and easy to get along with, and secondly, because she is a friend! is because everything always has to be advertised, if Lin Yumei turns white after a period of time, others ask her how she turned white, and naturally someone asks her here.
When the time came, she said that she asked her classmates to help buy it from another city, and it was okay to ask someone else to help bring some if needed.
When the time comes, you will naturally be able to make a profit.
