"Let's go shopping for clothes first." Wang Qiang thought for a while and said.

It was already about half past seven, and in another half an hour, the county department store was open.

At this time, there are basically no private ready-to-wear stores in the county, and there are many private tailor shops, but they have to be tailor-made, and it takes two days to get the goods, and the waiting time is too long.

Then, going to the department store under the supply and marketing cooperatives has become the only option.

The department store, just on the edge of Cross Street, is located on the corner of Cross Street in the direction of the farmer's market, and the location is excellent and very conspicuous.

"It's still early, let's go to the union canteen to eat a bowl of rice noodles."

After a while, Wang Qiang and his entourage came to the front of the big canteen on the street where the county federation of trade unions opened to the outside world to do business, and thought that he had not eaten breakfast yet, so he said.

The rice noodles in this are very delicious, and a few years ago, when my father was alive, I took Wang Qiang to eat it once, which makes people have an endless aftertaste.

"Eating rice noodles? It should be expensive, right? ”

Although Wanjun also wanted to taste it in her heart, she didn't want to waste money.

"It's not cheap."

Wang Qiang went into the city to sell fish this year, passed by here a few times, and heard about the recent price of rice noodles here.

The rice noodles in the people's canteen are really not cheap, a bowl of rice noodles for three taels costs two cents and five cents, and two cents for two taels.

It's a little more expensive, but the portion is very large, a big bowl of rice noodles, more than two bowls in the 21st century!

Moreover, the brine is a real fragrance, which is more than eight streets stronger than the brine of the 21st century.

Between the two, there is no comparison at all.

Mainly in this era, the brine is made of precious original ecological medicinal materials, and the materials are pure and sufficient.

Today, I made a small fortune, and I took my three younger sisters who have never eaten rice noodles on the street, and each of them should go to eat a bowl.

"Brother, I want to eat rice noodles!"

"Big brother, I want to eat too."

Wanyu and Wanling, the two little girls, heard it with bright eyes, and raised their little hands to sign up.

"That'...... Then go in and have a bowl. ”

Wanjun looked at her sister staringly, hesitated for a moment, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and agreed.

"Follow me, don't get separated."

Wang Qiang said to the three little girls, and walked towards the gate with them.

The big canteen of the Federation of Trade Unions, with the words "People's Canteen" written on it, has only one floor and a large area, with more than 400 square meters.

When I walked into this big canteen, I saw tables and chairs all over the side, all of which were the kind of eight-immortal tables and two-person stools, which could allow hundreds of people to eat at the same time.

There are a lot of customers, and the crowd of people waiting in line forms two long lines.

The rice noodles here in the Chacheng People's Canteen used to be purchased only after food stamps and money, but since the end of summer this year, only money is needed.

Tea City is a remote mountainous area, which is different from other places, and many other aspects are also different from other places.

For example, the division of fields into households, many places in China began in 1978, and it took five years before it was the turn of the tea city.

In addition, the province where the tea city is located is composed of villages and brigades as people's communes, unlike many places in other places, even the name of the village has been canceled for many years, and it was not restored until the eighties.

In the past, most of the various materials in the tea city needed all kinds of tickets to be purchased, but from this autumn onwards, there are basically no tickets, and money can be bought.

Wang Qiang and his sisters waited in line, and as the flow of people slowly advanced, they waited for almost twenty minutes before it was their turn.

"Auntie, there are four of us, and we want four bowls of rice noodles!"

He passed a large piece of unity through the window and said to a woman sitting at the counter collecting money.

The other party didn't answer, took the money, and quickly found nine yuan back for him, and handed him four rice noodle tickets at the same time.

The rice noodle ticket has three taels written on it, which is similar to the student meal ticket of later generations, and is plastic.

Take the rice noodles, not here, in another place in the big cafeteria.

It's much faster to pick up rice noodles.

In the window, there are seven or eight middle-aged women who are constantly scalding and adding, non-stop, and fast.

Anyway, now is the peak buying season, and no matter how much rice noodles they make, they will sell out.

The rice noodles that people buy are basically three taels, and very few buy two taels.

Only the kind of children who are only a few years old, and the adults help to point out two or two.

After a while, Wang Qiang's four brothers and sisters each carried a large bowl of rice noodles, came to an empty seat in the hall and sat down, and couldn't wait to eat and drink.

"Whoop......"

"Delicious! It's so delicious! ”

"I've never eaten anything so delicious!" ……

The three little girls were addicted to eating and were full of praise.

This is a real compliment, even if Wang Qiang's experience is outstanding now, and there are countless delicious foods he has eaten in later generations in his memory, he also ate and drank the rice noodles in the big bowl with soup in one go!

It's a pity that Wang Qiang knew that two years later, the people's canteen was canceled.

Since then, people have never been able to eat this evocative delicacy.

This kind of good thing that can really conquer the human palate, two years later, only legends remain, hidden in people's increasingly faint memories.

After eating and drinking, sitting and resting for a few minutes, the four brothers and sisters walked out of the people's canteen, and the three little girls still looked back, reluctantly looking at the entrance of the people's canteen.

"Brother, in the future, will we still come?"

Wanyu couldn't help it, and asked her brother who was holding her little hand with a little face.

"Will come back for sure."

Wang Qiang rubbed her little head with his big hand, "In the next two years, we will come to eat many times." ”

"That's great!"

The little girl immediately shouted with joy.

The two girls on the side, Wanyu and Wanjun, also smiled when they heard it, and their hearts were full of thoughts.

There is no way, the rice noodles made in the people's canteen are so delicious that people can never forget them after eating them once.

The four of them walked south along the main street without slowness, and soon returned to the intersection of the streets.

Wang Qiang looked up and found that the door of the department store located at the corner of the entrance of the farmers' market had been opened, and many customers were coming in and out.

The department store covers a large area, covering more than 1,000 square meters.

It has two floors, the second is made of wood and is topped with tiles.

It's already past eight o'clock in the morning, and the employees of this department store should also go to work.

He knew that the staff of this department store had a surprisingly poor service attitude, and it could be said that there was no service attitude at all.

The goods inside, not only do not bargain, but you are not allowed to move around.

Before August this year, buying something not only required money, but also various tickets to be able to buy it.

Otherwise, you can't buy it even if you have money.

"Wanjun, Xiaoyu, Xiaoling, after you go in, try not to speak, and you can't mess with things!"

Coming to the gate of the department store, Wang Qiang stopped and cautiously explained to the three girls.

He had to.

Otherwise, once you upset those waiters, you won't be able to buy anything inside.

Lao Tzu just won't sell it to you, what's wrong with you?

That's right, at this time, the department store under the supply and marketing cooperatives is so arrogant and so awesome!

"Okay, I don't speak, I don't move."

"Me too, very well-behaved."

"Brother, don't worry, I'll watch my sister and them."

The three little girls were a little frightened, and they nodded their little heads and said.

In their young hearts, the department store under the supply and marketing cooperatives is no different from the Longtan Tiger's Den.

After explaining clearly, Wang Qiang asked Wanjun to pull the twin little girls one by one, and took the lead into the gate of the department store, and walked straight towards the clothing area.
