Chapter 236 Stocking
After a lot of hard work, Tang Xiaofu finally bought a few pieces of tweed fabric and corduroy fabric, which could make a set of clothes for herself and her sister and mother, and it only cost five yuan in total.
When choosing fabrics, Tang Xiaofu asked the boss who sold odd pieces of cloth who had summer fabrics to sell now, preferably very fragmentary fabrics.
The one who sold her the fabric was a very sturdy aunt, and after listening to Tang Xiaofu's words, she said, "I have it at home, how much do you want,"
Tang Xiaofu asked, "How many do you start selling?" ”
The aunt said: "That kind of cloth is sold by catties, and it costs a dime a catty." ”
"Then give me ten catties, don't repeat the color, that is, each color must be different, and the color must be gorgeous, preferably chemical fiber satin."
This kind of cloth strip-like fabric, these vendors take no money casually when they buy from the garment factory, as long as you happen to have it when you come, now ten catties can earn a piece, the aunt is still quite happy, and asked her son who helped her to do business together to run back and take ten catties of cloth according to Tang Xiaofu's request.
The aunt's son was eleven or twelve years old, very clever, and as soon as his mother told him to move, he immediately flew back to his house, and brought a large bag of strips of cloth, all of which were colorful chemical fiber satin.
Tang Xiaofu said that he was very satisfied, paid the money, and saw that some stalls still have scattered wool for sale, these wool are also surplus from the manufacturer, only one or two of a color is the least, and the more is not more than half a catty, this kind of wool is sold by catties, and the chemical fiber is a catty of five, and the wool containing wool ranges from three to five pieces according to the content of wool, and there are many people who buy it.
Wool is more affordable than odd pieces of cloth relative to housewives, there are not many people who can make clothes, but women who can make wool are all over the street, like this cold weather, no matter where you go, you can see women sitting in groups of three or five sitting in the sun, weaving wool while exchanging patterns, how to weave to look good.
Tang Xiaofu picked up brightly colored chemical cilia yarn and bought twenty catties, there were too many things, although the bosses gave her bags, but so many Tang Xiaofu carried it very hard, and it was completely dragged later.
Finally walked out of the rag street, Tang Xiaofu was also exhausted, she sat on the snakeskin bag with wool and planned to rest for a while before leaving, at this time, a jeep stopped in front of her with a creak, Tang Xiaofu looked up, saw Leng Chenxu poking his head out of the car, and asked her: "Where are you going, I'll send you." ”
Tang Xiaofu was overjoyed: "You just send me to Jijiazui Wharf." ”
Leng Chenxu said: "It's noon, I have time to send you home, and then go back to the army." ”
Tang Xiaofu bent her eyes and waved her hand: "No need, just send it to Jijiazui Wharf, and when I reach the other side, I won't be able to walk far to reach my destination." ”
Leng Chenxu didn't say anything more, and moved all the things into the jeep with her.
Rag Street is a little far from Jijiazui Wharf, and it took more than half an hour to drive.
Leng Chenxu got out of the car, and Tang Xiaofu moved down the four snakeskin bags together, Tang Xiaofu carried two bags on his shoulders and two bags in his hands, turned his head with difficulty, said thank you to Leng Chenxu with a smile, and walked towards the dock with difficulty.
Leng Chenxu stared at her thin back for about five or six seconds, then suddenly caught up with her quickly, carried the two snakeskin bags on her shoulders on his shoulders, and couldn't help but say, snatched the two snakeskin bags in her hands and took them himself.
When passing through the ticket gate, Tang Xiaofu wanted to buy two tickets, and Leng Chenxu said: "I am an active soldier, so I don't need to buy tickets." and motioned for her to put her hand in her jacket pocket and take out her military ID.
Tang Xiaofu put his paws in, ah~ He is so warm! The muscles are also very strong! It feels good!
She took out Leng Chenxu's military ID card and glanced at it curiously, she really didn't expect that this guy was even bubbling with a handsome ID photo.
Leng Chenxu kept sending Tang Xiaofu to the ferry before leaving.
When Tang Xiaofu dragged four snakeskin bags back to Tang Xiaolan's ward, it was past one o'clock in the afternoon, and Xiaolan was quietly reading.
"Still working hard after the exam? Take a break. Tang Xiaofu said, put four snakeskin bags next to Xiaolan's bed, wiped the sweat on her head, and asked, "Have you eaten at noon?" What did you buy to eat? ”
Before Xiaolan could answer, the old lady in the same ward replied: "Your sister, you are really frugal, so she only bought two steamed buns to eat, and she was reluctant to ask her to buy some good dishes." ”
Tang Xiaolan explained: "I just like to eat steamed buns! ”
"No matter how much you like to eat steamed buns, you have to take care of your body, you take care of the goods I purchased, and I'll buy two dumplings and come back." Tang Xiaofu said and went out, and after a while, she came with two bowls of steaming coriander dumplings, and the two sisters ate the dumplings fragrantly, Tang Xiaofu went to return the bowl and then came back, ready to clean up the goods she entered, set a good price, and go to Jijiazui Wharf to sell them after lunch in the afternoon.
The reason why she didn't choose it during the day was because there were too many stalls during the day, and she couldn't plug in at all, plus she was afraid that those small vendors would be bullied, and she would quarrel with people if she didn't do anything, so she decided to go at night.
Tang Xiaolan stretched her neck curiously to see what goods she had come back into.
Tang Xiaofu took out those goods and put them on Tang Xiaolan's bed, there were many varieties, Xiaolan was dazzled, tried the gemstone ring for a while, and picked up a scarf tied around her neck for a while and asked Tang Xiaofu if she looked good, she was very busy.
Tang Xiaofu smiled and said that it was good-looking: "I entered thirty, you can take one and wear it." ”
"No, my sister will keep it and sell it, and give me another one when I have any leftovers." Xiaolan said sensibly, took the scarf from her neck and put it together with the other scarves.
The two patients in the same ward listened to the conversation between Tang Xiaofu's sisters and knew that these were all sold by Xiaofu, so they all walked over and stood beside Tang Xiaolan's bed, looking at the goods.
"How much does your scarf cost?" The aunt in bed No. 4 took a few scarves in her hand and compared.
"The purchase price is two yuan, both of which are in the same ward, and the aunt can buy it for five or one yuan if she wants to." The purchase price of this kind of scarf is six cents, and the retail price is generally two yuan without counteroffering, but if you buy several in one go, you will get a discount of two dimes, Tang Xiaofu was not wandering around in vain in front of those stalls at Jijiazui Wharf yesterday afternoon, and she has a rough idea of what price each commodity sells.
The aunt of bed No. 4 was happy, she had already inquired about the price of this kind of scarf, it was sold for two yuan and five yuan in the mall, and the small vendor also had two yuan in his hand, five yuan a piece, it was really cheap: "Then I'll buy a few." ”
The aunt has two daughters, bought a pink one, and bought a yellow one, originally bought two is enough, but thinking that this scarf is cheaper than other places for five cents, and in those days, five cents cheaper could buy half a catty of meat, so she gritted her teeth and bought herself a coffee-colored one, but at that time there were very few people who drank coffee, so it was customary to call the coffee color sauce-colored, a total of four pieces of five.
