Chapter 565: Stocking
Holding a few things that were not used but were very affordable, Starfish squeezed out of the crowd and found that Dad was standing under the parasol not far away, chatting with Chunhai about something, and she hurriedly went over.
“…… The main reason is that it is the first time to do it, and everyone is relatively novel, so it can attract so many people. And most people are just shopping, and the volume is not as high as it seems. ”
Naruse was chatting with Seiichiro Maki about the flea market, when he saw a starfish running over with a bunch of things.
"Daddy."
Starfish ......
Seiichiro turned his head to look at his daughter, and also saw a bunch of things she bought, "I bought a lot, is the price very cheap?" ”
"Uh-huh!"
Although most of them are things that are not needed......
Naruse glanced at a mural she had brought back, then looked at the Zashiki boy puppet next to her, and didn't say anything.
"It cost less than 1,000 yen!"
"It's cheap."
Starfish frequently looked at Naruse, obviously expecting him to say something.
Feeling her gaze, he could only pick up the boy and look at it, "The paintings on it are all mottled, this thing should be many years old." ”
"I don't know...... Anyway, it's only 50 yen. ”
Would he spend fifty yen on such an ornament that he didn't know where to put it when he took it back?
Naruse flipped over and put it down, "It's cheap enough." ”
After a while, Morimi and his parents also came out of the flea market. A family of three, each holding a pot or two of flowers.
"It's cheap, I bought it when I saw it." Chieda Morimi said, "Just take it back and decorate the bookstore." ”
Morimi also carried a bag with a few old books in it. There are many stalls selling books in the flea market, and Naruse doesn't know which ones he picked up.
From the school to the flea market, the three adults have almost finished their cultural festival sightseeing, and when they are ready to go back, Starfish also gives everything to Dad and asks him to take it home first.
Seeing them leave, Morimi looked at the starfish: "Is it useful to buy those things, I feel like I will throw them in the warehouse when I take them back." ”
"Huh...... But it's cheap. ”
"If you don't buy it, you'll suffer, right?"
"Hmm...... It's just like the picnic mat that Naoko bought before. ”
Morimi held his chin and looked at her for a moment, then suddenly smiled, "If the starfish had thought like this earlier, it wouldn't have become like this now." ”
"Eh, what?" Starfish was stunned for a moment, not understanding.
She just shook her head, and quietly glanced at Naruse.
“……”
He pursed his lower lip and saw that the starfish was also looking over, and he wouldn't explain it for her.
After a pause, he was about to ask Hikaru Takikawa where she had gone, and she squeezed out of the crowd.
Like most visitors, she went in empty-handed, came out empty-handed, and spent half a day shopping without buying anything.
"Have the adults gone back yet?"
"Well, I just walked for a while."
"Did you buy anything?" She looked at Morimi and the starfish.
"Bought some ......"
All three of them came back here, and Naruse had time to go around.
"Sit down here, I'll take a look."
"Alone?"
"Alone."
Morimi waved his hand, too lazy to say.
Walking into the flea market again, Naruse walked from a place he hadn't visited with Naoko before.
Stop-and-go, his girlfriend is not there, and he has no desire to buy anything, basically just to take a look, at most squatting down and holding it in his hand to look carefully for a while.
There are so many people, whether you buy it or not, at least every stall looks lively.
Seeing the Buddha bead wooden fish on one of the stalls, Naruse raised his eyes and saw that the stall owner was indeed the girl who ran or used to run a temple at home.
And this is also a rare stall with relatively few people, only a man and a woman are looking at two people from outside the school, he also squatted down, picked up one of the Buddhist beads casually, and recognized the words on the beads.
"I can't sell this thing even if I take it back...... How can any monk come to your shop? ”
"It's okay."
Hearing this familiar voice, Naruse was stunned, turned his head to look, and it was indeed Chao Yueming who was squatting next to him.
"Mr. Tidemoon?"
He also looked over and smiled in surprise, "Loose." ”
"When did Mr. Tidemoon come over?"
After the last time he tried to bring in people from outside the school to set up a stall at the flea market, he was rejected by the student council, and Naruse gave up on the idea, forgetting whether he had invited Naru Shiogueki to participate in today's event.
"It's been the morning." Chao Yueming said, "It was over there before. ”
He raised his hand and pointed to the side of the teaching building, after all, it was a graduate of Jingao, who lived nearby, and he was still very familiar with Jingao.
Seeing the female friend who looked like a female college student next to him, staring at him all the time, Naruse also said hello, he was no stranger to this face.
"Miss Mino."
Seeing Wild Momo, Chaoyue Ming's junior in college, occasionally goes to the second-hand store to help look after the store, and when Naruse first went there, he saw her.
"Nice, uh...... Pine. ”
After greeting each other, Naruse looked at Chaoyue again: "How does Mr. Chaoyue feel?" ”
"What?"
"Flea market."
"It's hilarious." He nodded, and looked left and right again, "It's so large, it's not messy at all, it's rare." ”
Naruse smiled, "It's thanks to the advice Mr. Tidemoon made earlier. ”
"Senior, do you still want Buddha beads, I can give them to you cheaper."
Seeing that the three of them chatted and didn't buy it for a long time, the stall owner inside opened her mouth.
"Okay." Chaoyue chirped.
She paused for a moment and looked at Naruse.
He nodded vaguely and asked again, "Is Mr. Chaoyue also interested in these Buddhist supplies?" ”
"Hmm."
Naruse looked again, only to notice that there was still a bulging bag next to him, apparently having bought quite a few things.
Did you come here to stock......
"If you can't fit something, you can put it on my side first."
"Okay."
Mori saw the three of them sitting under the parasols, and after a while, he saw Naruse returning with a large bag.
"You bought so much?"
"Friend's."
"Huh?"
Without further ado, he poured the contents on the table and went in with the empty bag. Half an hour later, he came out with a refilled bag.
"What friend? Male or female? Who pays for it? ”
Naruse glanced at Morimi, "The owner of the second-hand shop at Central Station." ”
"Oh."
The three of them have some impressions, especially starfish, who went to the flea market in Pingchuan City together last semester.
Pouring out the contents of the bag again, Naruse glanced at it roughly, and the two tables were almost unable to fit.
"That friend of yours can see everything." Morimi picked up a small mirror, but he couldn't see any value in reselling this thing.
"Some things are just because they're cheap." Naruse said, "This mirror, for example, costs only fifty yen. ”
“…… All right. ”
"There's nothing going on here."
"What could happen?" Morimi held his chin, "You're the only one who came and spoke to us in this hour. ”
He took the bag and went back to find Chao Yueming again.
In and out, it was almost four o'clock in the afternoon, and the talent in the flea market was finally slowly decreasing, and Chao Yueming finally completed the "purchase" and was ready to go back.
"That's a lot! …… You'd better drive over. ”
When he came outside, although he had been following Chao Yueming, he was still startled when he saw the mountains of things on the table.
If you rely on your legs to carry them outside the school, your legs will break.
"The car can drive up to the entrance of the playground." Naruse also said.
"Okay."
Chao Yueming went to drive, and several people carried things back and forth a few times, and delivered everything to the entrance.
He soon came over in his pickup truck, and Naruse helped load the things.
"I learned a lot today." Chao Yueming said goodbye.
"That's good." Naruse smiled and said goodbye to the female college student who was sitting in the passenger seat.
"Be careful on the road."
Watching the pickup truck move forward, Naruse returned under the parasol and continued to sit.
"It's not too early, and people are slowly starting to disperse." Hikaru Takikawa said.
Naruse nodded, "If it continues to be lively, it won't end well later." ”
The four of them sat here, and half an hour later, the radio on this side of the playground sounded.
"Today's flea market event has ended, thank you all for your support! Please wait for the stall owners and all visitors will leave the venue first. Please be careful when leaving the venue......"
Morimi looked at Naruse, and when the announcement sounded, he took a deep breath.
"It's over."
"Hmm." Naruse answered, stood up, and looked at the visitors who were leaving one after another under the guidance of the volunteers, "Let's get ready to clean up the venue." ”
