Chapter 55: Buying a Car

Once a person has experienced a difficult day, he will immediately recall the past years infinitely, and hope to return to the past.

When they lived in the family home, Dong Zhaodi and Dong Niandi didn't have to worry about a lot of things, the only biggest worry was that their father would beat their mother, and their mother often had injuries on her body, but she was still very good to them.

Occasionally, I can eat a meal of scrambled eggs every few days, and I can eat a bite of meat every one or two months, and school is normal, and I usually do some simple housework at home.

No matter how anxious Dong Dahan is, he will not do anything to the two of them, at most his tone is focused.

Unlike now, the heavy responsibility of laundry, cooking, cleaning, and taking care of Mrs. Wu falls on their heads, and they have to be called to make pasty shells when they have a little free time.

Every day has to be busy from morning to night, and the money that the two of them paste paper shells in a day adds up to only four cents.

Sometimes the hands and feet are slow, and Dong Da Khan's fists will also fall on the two of them.

At this moment, they also experienced the despair in Xia Yumei's heart and the future at a glance.

A trace of unwillingness and regret continued to breed in the hearts of Dong Zhaodi and Dong Niandi, especially Dong Wuliang's differential treatment and Dong Dahan's unkindness.

They regretted it very much and decided not to go with Xia Yumei in the first place.

If they could choose again, they would definitely choose to go with Xia Yumei.

Thinking like this, a bold thought that had never risen before couldn't be suppressed in Dong Zhaodi's mind.

At that time, in the county department store.

Meng Chuntao took Xia Yumei straight to the bicycle counter, and behind the counter was a platform twenty or thirty centimeters higher than the ground, on which three bicycles were placed.

It is still the brand that Meng Chuntao has seen before: Phoenix, Permanent, and Flying Pigeon.

The new bicycle given by Meng Guochuan has been ridden by her, and she is always bad at occupying the bicycle, although Meng Guochuan said no, but she can't really not give it.

All along, Meng Chuntao has been busy selling goods, and he is afraid that the funds in his hand are not up to standard, so he does not dare to buy a bicycle.

Now Meng Chuntao has more than 2,000 on hand, and the money to buy a bicycle is no longer a problem.

So, she sold out the oil residue, and hurriedly pulled Xia Yumei to the county seat.

These days, Meng Chuntao has also taught Xia Yumei how to ride in private, and she doesn't have to worry about buying a car and not being able to ride back.

Not long after Meng Chuntao stood still, the nearby shopping guide saw the two of them coming over and hurriedly stepped forward.

"This is a display car, you can only see it, you can't touch it." The shopping guide was busy, for fear that the two of them would reach out and touch the car.

Department stores have always sold quality things, and the price naturally rises with the quality of things.

Although there are not many customers inside, all of them are rich people.

Meng Chuntao has been to the department store more than once, and this shopping guide has observed it several times. found that she hadn't bought anything once, and directly classified her as a person who couldn't afford to buy things and liked to watch dry addictions.

Although the salary as a shopping guide is not high, I work in a department store all the year round, and I come into contact with rich people, and I unconsciously think that I am superior.

Meng Chuntao's eyebrows moved slightly, and he was not angry with the shopping guide, and smiled gently: "What is the price of this car?" I want to buy one. ”

"Buy one? Do you have a ticket or money? We don't have credit in this way, we have to pay in a lump sum. The shopping guide didn't believe that Meng Chuntao was here to buy a car.

It's no wonder that the shopping guide doesn't believe it, mainly because the clothes worn by Meng Chuntao and Xia Yumei have been sewn up several times, and they look like people who have no money.

Who usually goes in and out of department stores, who is not neatly dressed without patches?

The smile on Meng Chuntao's face turned cold, and he was no longer polite: "I asked you what the price of this car is, what do you have to say to me?" Whether you can afford it or not is my business, it has nothing to do with you! ”

"Xiao Qin, what's wrong?" The manager not far away heard the movement here and walked over.

"Manager, it's nothing, I just want to tell this guest that this car is not cheap, and if you want to buy a one-time payment, you can't pay on credit." Seeing the manager coming, Xiao Qin was much more polite.

The manager was a medium-sized man in his forties, with a big back and a tunic, standing with his hands in his hands, and a serious face.

After listening to Xiao Qin's words, he nodded approvingly, and looked at Meng Chuntao with a smile: "Guest, what our shopping guide Xiao Qin said is right, our things are all one-time payments, and we can't pay on credit." ”

"We didn't mention that we wanted to pay on credit, but we just said that we would come and ask for the price of the car, and this comrade pushed back and said that he would make a one-time payment. Isn't it okay to look at the car and ask the price now? ”

The manager was stunned by Meng Chuntao's questioning, then relieved himself and said busily: "Of course you can, which car do you want to see, I can introduce it to you." ”

After speaking, the manager glared at Xiao Qin, and casually raised his hand to let her go.

"Wait, this Comrade Xiao Qin can treat us like this, it's hard to guarantee that he won't treat other customers like this. In the new society, everyone is equal, and it is not allowed to divide people into three, six, nine, and so on.

This Comrade Xiao Qin obviously divided us into hierarchies, which is in opposition to the people, and to put it mildly, it is instigating the people to divide the consciousness of hierarchy, which is the best behavior! ”

At that time, I was most afraid of being marked as instigating hierarchical confrontation, and the end was very terrible.

Sure enough, hearing Meng Chuntao's words, Xiao Qin's face turned pale, and he looked at the manager at a loss: "Brother-in-law......"

The manager's face turned dark and glared at Xiao Qin: "Shut up!" ”

Meng Chuntao raised her eyebrows and looked at the manager with a smile: "It turned out to be the manager's sister-in-law, no wonder you can be so arrogant." ”

As soon as these words came out, a whisper suddenly sounded in the department store.

Xiao Qin usually relies on the manager to be his brother-in-law, and his eyes can't wait to grow to the top of his head. Usually I work to watch people put down dishes, but the bicycle counter she is responsible for is usually rich or expensive, and the attitude is naturally excellent.

Bumped into Meng Chuntao's head today, which can be regarded as her bad luck!

The manager rolled his eyes and looked at Xiao Qin with a straight face: "Qin Jiajia, who made you so rude to the guests, you are a first-time offender, and you will go to the accountant to pay a fine of three yuan in a while." Next time, it won't be this punishment! And you all have to cheer me up and serve customers well! ”

The manager looked around, and the whispering suddenly dissipated.

Qin Jiajia was fined three yuan by Meng Chuntao in a few words, pouting and disagreeing, but was glared back by the manager.

"Guest, are you satisfied with this punishment?" The manager said with a smile on his face.

Xia Yumei, who was standing on the side, timidly tugged at the corner of Meng Chuntao's clothes and said in a low voice: "Don't forget it." ”

The matter is not a particularly big deal, since the other party has already been punished, Meng Chuntao will not hold on to it, and it is over with a slight closure.

Next, looking at the car, the manager was accompanied by the whole process, for fear that something would happen.

What the manager didn't expect was that Meng Chuntao really came to buy a car.

She directly chose the Phoenix bicycle with a price tag of 215 yuan, which surprised the manager, and the smile on her face became more sincere.

Bills are required to buy a car.

Meng Chuntao didn't have a ticket, and in addition to the skirmish with the shopping guide just now, the manager didn't want a ticket, but he had to add 45 yuan on the basis of the original price, a total of 260 yuan.

With so much money to be paid at once, Xia Yumei's heart suddenly cut like a knife, and she began the middle-aged woman's specialty: bargaining.

In the end, the two successfully won the Phoenix bicycle at a price of 248 yuan.
