Chapter 66: The Store
At the gate of the supply and marketing cooperative, Li Heng handed over the cloth bag he brought to Meng Jun, who had just come to work, and then sat on the steps next to the gate and waited quietly.
On the days off, there are many people who go out shopping, most of them come out as a family, the children run in front, and the adults talk and walk slowly in the back.
In these years, there are few cars on the road, and no one is afraid that the child will have a car accident on the road.
He looked at the children running around and thought of when he was a child in his last life, when he went to school, how could there be an adult to send it, it was a few children who made an appointment to go to school together, and they were playing all the way.
Why are adults relieved? It's not because there are fewer cars on the road.
Later, not to mention primary school students, many junior high school students are picked up by their parents, because there are too many cars on the road, sometimes you avoid the car, and the car can drive at you to touch you, so anyone who has the conditions will pick up and drop off the children in person.
Another point is that the scale of urban development in the future is getting bigger and bigger, and many children have to take the bus to and from school, which is also the reason why parents are not at ease.
"Brother Erheng"
Just when Li Heng was still there reminiscing about his previous life, Meng Jun walked out with a cloth bag.
"Here, there are four bottles in total, which is the most, two bottles of peaches and two bottles of oranges."
"Thank you, brother, how much is it?"
It's really good to know a friend who works in a supply and marketing cooperative, and these scarce goods can be bought.
If you don't know anyone, you try, you don't even know if people have this thing, these canned fruits are like peanuts and melon seeds, and they won't be put on the counter at all.
Peanuts and melon seeds, if you get married, with the ticket issued by the street office, you can also come to the supply and marketing cooperatives to buy two catties, and then you can buy them during the New Year, but this canned fruit is different, and it will not be on the counter at any time.
When you find out that someone has bought canned fruit, it's when people drink water from that glass bottle after eating.
It can't be helped, it seems that no matter what, no matter what it is, it is the same that having an acquaintance can make it a little easier.
"Four bottles, one bottle of eight cents and two, a total of three pieces of two cents and eight."
Tsk, the price!
As soon as he gave the money, he still had to go to work, and he stuffed a pack of cigarettes into his hand.
"Brother Erheng, what are you doing here."
"Take it, I don't smoke it either."
The cigarette given is Huazi without a filter, a pack of six cents, this is still before he left the army, from the regiment commander, at that time, he ran two kilometers around the playground after being chased by the regiment commander, and it took a kick to relieve the hatred, and now there are eight boxes left.
He rarely smokes this cigarette, and it's been a month since he came back, and there seem to be five more in the box he opened, and the cigarettes he gave to others were all Beihai, two cents and three boxes, and many people smoked this.
As for the Pegasus on the top of Sanmao, Xiangshan, etc., these are all smoked by people with a bit of status, Qunying on the top of Simao, Peony, Li Heng saw that there were those for sale, but he hadn't seen anyone smoked yet, let alone Huazi.
"Hehe, then I'm welcome."
"Okay Junzi, you go in and go to work, let's talk again when it's okay."
"Okay, then I'll go in, Brother Erheng, if there are any more good things, I'll keep them for you."
Meng Jun can see that Xiaoyuan's brother is a glutton, as long as it is delicious, he doesn't need to ask, so he simply said to keep it for him.
"Okay" Li Heng nodded with a smile, then waved his hand, signaling him to go in quickly, and he turned to leave.
While walking, he looked down at the bag he was carrying, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional, this is something that few people will eat in the future, but now it is as rare as a baby, not that he can't afford it, eight cents and two a bottle, many people can buy it with a gritted tooth and a stomping of their feet, but now they can't buy it.
Hey? Trust Stores.
Seeing the trust store on the side of the road, he remembered what Lao Zheng told him before that he wanted to buy a baby and go here, and he passed back and forth from here several times, but he never went in, and when he looked at the watch, it was only half past eight, so he turned around and walked in.
When he chatted with others later, he also mentioned trust stores from others, and the functions of each store were actually different.
A store like theirs sells miscellaneous items, such as clothes and shoes, pots and pans, cameras, handicrafts, watches, etc.
There are also those who specialize in the sale of furniture and bicycles.
The layout inside is no different from that of a regular store, except that there is an additional acquisition department than a regular store.
When the salesperson sees someone coming in, it's like he didn't see it, it's still a chat that should be chatting, and he should be busy with his own work, which is very characteristic of the times.
It's still early, and there aren't many people walking around the store.
As soon as I entered the door, there were pots and pans on one side, and clothes on the other, all of which were second-hand.
After the store took these things in, it looked like they had taken care of it, and it looked clean on the counter.
The types of clothes are also varied, tunics and suits are all normal, as well as shirts, large cotton jackets, cotton shoulders, small suits worn by women, brajis, cheongsam.
But is that cheongsam serious? The slits can be opened to the armpits, who is this for?
After a few glances at the counter selling clothes, he came to the side of the pots and pans again, looked at the stacks of porcelain bowls, and estimated in his heart that there might be a so-called treasure in it.
But these things seem to him to be the same, and it is true that the pile of porcelain is the same price.
The reason why trust stores are so popular with the people is that the key is to talk about credit, if you sell things here, they will not desperately lower the price, and even some give it low, and finally after the thing is sold at a high price, they will find you and give you back some of the money.
And one of the most important places is that you can buy things here with confidence, the origin of the goods is clear, and the things they sell will be invoiced.
If you are selling valuables, such as bicycles, you have to bring your bicycle license, which is to prevent some people from taking advantage of this place to sell stolen goods, and if there is a problem with the goods, you can immediately find out who sold the goods.
There is also a part of the consignment here, that is, the seller and the store negotiate a suitable price, and then put the counter for you, and give the money to the seller after selling, you don't want to sell it before you sell it, and the store will not charge any fees, which is very convenient.
Li Heng took a look around the store, glanced at the watch and camera, there were indeed a lot of good things, and the price was quite appropriate.
For those who don't have a ticket and can't buy new items at the department store, it is perfect to buy them here.
