Chapter 148: A Gradually Chaotic Order
One early morning in mid-May, the rainfall suddenly plummeted, and although the sky was still covered with dark clouds, the drizzle turned into a downpour for several days, which still made the citizens feel uplifted.
As soon as the residents of Fairview Garden saw that the rain had become smaller, they sent messages in the group.
[Mr. 704 Fang: Does anyone know that the supermarket is open? 】
[1002 Mrs. Yu: I just contacted the merchants of the supermarket, and it will open in half an hour, but there is only a small amount of fresh food! 】
[803 Aunt Huang: What about the hardware store? ] Is it open? If I don't repair the windows of my house, the house will be soaked in water! 】
[1002 Mrs. Yu: It's not open, the storm signal hasn't been revoked yet, it's still suspended from work and classes, I'll go to the supermarket to find out if there are any planks that can be used for you later]
[803 Aunt Huang: Thank you for your hard work! ] 】
As soon as Zhang Linlin saw that the supermarket would open later, she asked Chen Yuanyuan and He Yuehua to go out shopping later.
Although Chen Yuanyuan has no shortage of materials in the space, he has not left the twelfth floor for a long time, and he plans to go out for a walk.
The four of them dressed up in the same outfits as last time and gathered at the elevator to hike to the supermarket.
The supermarket is still half an hour before it opens, and there are already nearly 100 people waiting outside the roller gate.
As soon as the supermarket door opened, Chen Yuanyuan immediately headed for the fresh meat section, while Zhang Linlin and his wife went to the vegetable and fruit section, and He Yuehua rushed to the seafood section.
In order to save the customer's purchase time, the supermarket divides the fresh food into bags and boxes early in the morning, and marks the price in advance.
Chen Yuanyuan didn't think too much about it, and took whatever he could grab in the crowd.
After grabbing about four or five bags, the air-conditioning cabinet that was not full was swept away, and even some pigs were left in the water.
And He Yuehua and Zhang Linlin were in the same situation, and each of them only grabbed four or five bags.
"After buying, check out and leave, there are still 15 minutes to change the next batch of people!" A uniformed supermarket with staff shouting in the supermarket with a bullhorn.
Chen Yuanyuan looked outside the supermarket from afar, and it turned out that the gate had been pulled down again, and it seemed that the supermarket had implemented crowd control.
"We split up, we went to buy what we wanted, and waited at the cashier 10 minutes later." After Chen Yuanyuan said yes to the other three, he let Zhang Linlin push the supermarket trolley, took a shopping basket and went shopping.
Chen Yuanyuan went to the freezer area, and most of the ingredients in the freezer had been swept away, leaving only a small number of desserts and ice cream that no one cared about.
After Chen Yuanyuan took more than a dozen boxes of ice cream popsicles, he went to the seasoning area to buy some special sauces from Xiangcheng.
Earlier, some salt, sugar, soy sauce and vinegar had already been stockpiled a lot, but some local sauces were relatively lacking.
White bean curd, olive, chili sauce, Portuguese sauce, zhuhou sauce, typhoon shelter sauce, etc.
After shopping, Chen Yuanyuan went to the cashier to meet the others, and as soon as he walked to the queue, he saw Zhang Linlin and He Yuehua being pulled by two aunts in the shopping cart.
"How can you two little girls eat so much, can't you give me a little bit! There are six people in my family, old and young! The red-clothed aunt said.
"There are also young and old people waiting in our family!" Zhang Linlin scolded back.
"Will you respect the old and love the young, I can't grab an old man, can't you give me a point?" The red-clothed aunt scolded.
"We just said that we would give you a bag of meat and vegetables, but you have to ask us to share half of you!" He Yuehua pulled the car back and scolded.
"Ouch, how do you push people!" The red-clothed aunt took advantage of the situation and fell to the ground.
When Chen Yuanyuan saw this scene, he knew what was probably going on, and was about to step forward to drive away the red-clothed aunt, when he heard someone shouting.
"Wow, there's a new dish again!"
The red-clothed aunt who was originally lying on the floor immediately walked like a fly, rushing to the fresh stall, Chen Yuanyuan saw this, and when the aunt passed by the side, she stretched out her legs and tripped her as if nothing happened, and the aunt fell hard and ate.
"Let's go and check out!" Yu Yanqun pushed a cart of goods and a large wooden plank, urging the three of them to settle the bill quickly.
It turned out to be Yu Yanqun, the chairman of the business committee, who had just shouted that there was a dish to relieve the three of them, Chen Yuanyuan nodded to her and thanked her, and hurriedly followed Zhang Linlin and He Yuehua to the counter to settle the bill.
Unexpectedly, half a carload of food and small items cost nearly 2,000 yuan, and prices skyrocketed.
"What the hell, your tomatoes cost 30 yuan a pound? Why don't you grab it? A grumpy strong man couldn't help but quarrel with the cashier.
"We can't help it, now the mainland is not enough to supply vegetables to Xiangcheng, and we have taken it back more than ten times..."
"He's numb, you can calculate it for me at the previous price now, or I'll call the police!" The strong man slapped the counter hard, scaring the people around him to quiet down.
"Sir, you don't need to put down the goods and leave, we tried our best to buy under the typhoon, except for the artificial rent, we don't make you a penny, we all have a purchase order, you have to call the police casually, but the things are put down, we don't sell you." The supermarket manager stepped forward and said stiffly.
"If you don't want to, just let it go to me!"
"Hurry up if you want to settle the bill, it's going to rain heavily again in a while!"
The queue began to shout, and the strong man had to settle the account with a cheeky face, and did not forget to scold.
"Why aren't you leaving?" Yu Yanqun, who had finished settling the account, saw that Chen Yuanyuan and the others were still waiting in place, so he stepped forward and asked.
"We're leaving soon, what about Liu Feiyang?" Chen Yuanyuan asked.
"I don't think I bought too much, let him go to the bank to get some cash first, let's go first." Zhang Linlin said, and several people received the food in the shopping cart into the handbag.
The red-clothed aunt had just fallen, and a tissue was still stuffed in her nose, and when she saw He Yuehua and Zhang Linlin, she stepped forward.
"Gee, you still buy fish? Divide me one! "The aunt in red, who had just walked out of the supermarket, saw a few people receiving goods, and wanted to take advantage of it.
"Mrs. Lu, you live in Building 5 for three people, you can't eat so much, what about five people!" Yu Yanqun recognized that the aunt in red was Aunt Lu in Building 5, and Aunt Wang in her own building could be called a sleeping dragon and phoenix.
"Chairman Yu, my little grandson is the age of growing his body, let these girls let them eat something, what do you care." Aunt Lu said.
"Don't you see that the girl doesn't mean it, don't bully the people in our second building, so let's do it, I'll share your onions, okay?" Yu Yanqun rolled her eyes and handed a green onion to Aunt Lu.
"Why are you giving me a green onion, I can't eat enough!" Although Aunt Lu didn't know why, she was not the king if she was cheap, so she took the green onion and left.
"Tsk, she's a green onion!" Yu Yanqun couldn't help but scold when she saw Aunt Lu go away, which made Chen Yuanyuan and the others laugh.
