Chapter 57 Panjiayuan Thrift Market

"Pan Jiayuan? Isn't that a place to sell antiques? Xu Dong said strangely.

In the past few months, he has read several online novels of treasure appreciation, and the name of Panjiayuan is like thunder, an authentic Taobao holy land.

Wang Xiujuan put down her chopsticks and explained: "That's right, it used to be a place to sell antiques, but now who still has the heart to buy that thing, it is about to become a real thrift market." ”

"Thrift market?" Mother Xu was puzzled: "Where can I buy meat?" ”

"I can't say I bought it, I should say I changed it.

Nowadays, many scarce goods cannot be bought with money, and can only be exchanged for the same shortage of goods.

Panjiayuan is like a hodgepodge, there is everything in it, but whether you can get it or not depends on means and luck. ”

Wang Xiujuan analyzed.

"Lao Wang, how do you know, have you ever gone there to buy meat?" Xu Ma asked.

Wang Xiujuan shook her head:

"No, I'm an old woman, I don't dare to go there alone, I listened to Lao Zhou of our dance troupe.

Her daughter's family lives in Panjiayuan, and her son-in-law exchanged a cigarette for a pound of pork, and specially sent half a catty to Lao Zhou's family. ”

"Husband, why don't we take the time to take a look?"

Yang Lina was very moved when she heard it, whether it was true or not, just go and see it.

Xu Dong nodded, thinking that this matter was very reliable, anyway, Panjiayuan was not far from his home, at most half an hour's drive.

"Okay, tomorrow when I come back from work, let's go together."

Next to her, Wang Xiujuan opened her mouth and asked:

"Xiao Xu, if you really touch the meat, can you help your aunt carry some too.

Zheng Yan They haven't eaten meat for many days, adults don't care, the key is that the two children are still young, but they can't lack nutrition..."

"Aunt Wang, I understand, you can rest assured, if you can buy meat, I will definitely leave you a copy." Xu Dong agreed.

"That's great, Auntie thank you in advance for being here."

"Lao Wang, why did you say thank you again, didn't we just make an agreement in the afternoon?" Xu Ma pretended to be angry.

Wang Xiujuan hurriedly patted her forehead and "blamed herself": "Alas, look at my memory, I will punish myself for three cups." ”

"Tons and tons and tons ..."

Of course, it was soy milk that was drunk.

……

In the blink of an eye, the next day is coming.

Xu Dong came home from work, loaded a box of cigarettes and seven or eight boxes of expired Telunsu into the car, and then drove his wife to Panjiayuan.

If this trip goes well, then those expired goods at home will be marketable, and whether or not to make money is secondary, the key is that he can't waste it.

When they arrived at Panjiayuan, the first thing the couple did after getting off the bus was to consciously put on masks.

The air quality of Yanjing has always been not very good, especially since this year, sandstorms have become more and more frequent, which has made it even worse.

In addition, wearing a mask also means a bit of prevention, after all, Panjiayuan is a mixed place at first glance, and there are people of all religions.

Xu Dong has never been to Panjiayuan, so he doesn't know what it used to look like, but now it is indeed very lively, and there are crowds of people everywhere.

The sound of shouting, bargaining, and trumpets......

One after another!

Everything looks messy, but it's chaotic and orderly, very similar to a vegetable market.

"Husband, how are we going?" Yang Lina asked blankly.

The entire Panjiayuan covers an area of about 50,000 square meters, with a total of more than 3,000 shops and stalls, so it's no wonder that Yang Lina doesn't know where to start.

"Let's go to the shop area first, I've heard that there are always good goods in it." Xu Dong proposed.

At work today, he specially inquired about Panjiayuan from his colleagues, but he didn't expect that many people had been there, and Section Chief Li was a frequent visitor, and the other party also shared a lot of experience with him.

"Okay, listen to you." Yang Lina said simply.

The shop area is next to the parking lot, and Xu Dong took his daughter-in-law and walked for less than five minutes.

There are two kinds of shops here, one is a single-family shop along the street; The other is somewhat similar to a shopping mall, separated by a fence.

The first thing the two visited was the "shopping mall", which sold everything, but mainly household appliances, clothing and consumer electronics.

The vast majority of them are second-hand.

It is worth mentioning that there are more than a dozen pawn shops in it, and there are also four or five that specialize in recycling precious metals, and the business of each one is extremely hot.

However, these were not what Xu Dong and the others needed, and the two of them left after a rough stroll, and the next focus was on the shops along the street.

Soon, a shop specializing in Western-style confectionery caught the couple's attention.

After all, this is the first time that the two of them have seen a merchant selling food, especially when they smell the fragrance, their appetite is immediately aroused.

Xu Dong pulled his daughter-in-law and squeezed in, the outside of the store was crowded, but the inside of the store was very spacious, and everyone consciously did not cross the threshold of the gate.

"Hello, may I ask if your puffs are 50 yuan, or 50 yuan a catty?" Yang Lina stepped forward and asked.

Although she knew that there was a high probability that it would be the former, Yang Lina still asked with luck.

The waiter glanced up at the person who was questioning, and saw that the other party was dressed very ordinarily, not like a rich man, so he said perfunctorily:

"We only exchange here, we don't sell, there is a bakery in front, you can go over there and have a look, they accept cash."

Yang Lina was stunned for a moment, what is this called, and she took the initiative to drive customers away, it was the first time she had encountered this situation.

"And what are you going to change?" Xu Dong asked with a frown.

The waiter stared at Xu Dong and found that the other party was wearing a famous watch on his wrist, and his attitude suddenly became enthusiastic.

"Hello, this gentleman, we only accept famous cigarettes, famous wine and famous tea here."

"I still have some cigarettes, can you accept the 'revival' brand?"

Xu Dong asked knowingly, although life is not a novel, and there are not so many routines of pretending to be forked and slapping his face, it is okay to satisfy his vanity once in a while.

The waiter's eyes lit up, and he immediately nodded: "Of course." ”

"How?"

"Fuxing cigarettes, on our side, the recycling price is 250 yuan per pack.

The 250 yuan can be directly exchanged for pastries of no more than 250 yuan in our store.

Of course, if you're willing to accept cash, that's no problem, and we have additional bonuses. ”

The waiter introduced.

Xu Dong secretly calculated the account in his heart: "So, a pack of revival cigarettes can be exchanged for five puffs, and a renaissance cigarette can be exchanged for fifty puffs?" ”

"You're right." The waiter replied with a smile.

"Husband, this price is too expensive, I think it's better to forget it!"

Yang Lina took Xu Dong's arm and whispered to persuade her, she is a person who is used to saving, and she is usually more economical than her mother-in-law.

Xu Dong comforted in a low voice: "What are you afraid of, there is no shortage of this cigarette at home, besides, the two of us finally came over, we have to bring something back, otherwise it won't be in vain!" ”
