Since 1981 Health School

Chapter 18 The warehouse knows the etiquette

Chen Qi, who had more than a thousand dollars on his body, went on a killing spree in the black market. This feeling was similar to his previous life when he went to the supermarket.

The Chen family lacks everything now, and there are too many things to buy.

Rice still needs to be bought, and vegetable oil, soy sauce, sugar, and rice vinegar are all needed. With seasoning, there are too many cute animals in the mountains that can be cooked deliciously.

In addition, Chen Qi also bought a few pieces of cloth. The boys can wear dark blue cotton cloth, but for the elder sister and the younger sister, he bought two pieces of cotton cloth with small floral patterns. He plans to make a pair like classmate Pan Ye for them. skirt.

In addition, I did not buy other home appliances, but I still bought a flashlight and batteries.

People in the mountains rely on torches to travel at night, but the range that the torches can illuminate is too small, the mountain roads are rugged and dangerous, and there are many wild animals and poisonous snakes, so a flashlight is indispensable.

Chen Qi also saw someone selling pork. Pigs are also a key strategic material controlled by the state. Except for state-run non-staple food stores, others are not allowed to sell them, and the black market is ignored.

It is estimated that as long as there is a need, someone can get an atomic bomb from Lao Maozi.

Chen Qi bought a large piece of fatty meat, and now there is no refrigerator, it is useless to buy too much meat, which is why he only bought grain and did not buy much meat.

Finally, when he was about to leave, he saw someone selling watches. A second-hand Shanghai watch cost only 80 yuan.

But the watch was too high-profile to wear, and it didn't fit his personality as a poor student in the mountains, so he had no choice but to leave.

But before he left, he still went to the department store to buy a pair of pull-back shoes for his younger siblings and a pair of Jiefang shoes for his elder sister.

It's not that Chen Qi is stingy, he knows that with a temper like a silly big sister, he won't be willing to wear it even if you buy her back shoes, and Jiefang shoes are more suitable for her.

In addition, I also bought two pens, the fruit candy weighed two catties, and the white rabbit milk candy cost 4 yuan per catty, which was too expensive to afford.

In addition, there are also pastries, such as mung bean cakes, osmanthus cakes, black rice cakes, and fragrant cakes. Careful Chen Qi even bought four bottles of soda, ready to let the family have a taste.

Under the curious eyes of the department store salesperson, Boss Chen spent more than 100 yuan to go out with a lot of things.

Even if they are urbanites, there are very few people who make big purchases like Chen Qi. They buy whatever they see. After all, no one is rich, let alone a poor boy from the countryside.

When it was time to go home at last, Chen Qi decided to take a extravagant trip and go to the bus terminal at Chengbeiqiao to take a bus back to Keqiao Town.

Although trains and ships are cheap, they are less frequent and require a long wait. Of course, Chen Qi, who is not short of money, does not want to sit there like a fool.

I don't have a mobile phone to play with, so I can't sit still.

What surprised him the most was that he found a snack bar next to the Chengbeiqiao bus station, which was opened by himself and did not require food stamps.

Smelling that aroma, Chen Qi couldn't stop drooling, and the steamed stuffed bun won't go bad in the space, so you can take it out anytime you want to eat, it's so convenient.

"Boss, how do you sell these meat-wrapped fried dough sticks?"

"Big meat buns cost 10 cents and 3 cents, and fried dough sticks cost 8 cents."

This price is fully twice as expensive as a state-run hotel, but who told him not to have a ticket, and to drive at a bus station where people come and go, which is a bit of a scam.

"Boss, I want more quantity, can it be cheaper?"

The store owner frowned, "How much do you want?"

"200 buns and 200 fried dough sticks."

Suddenly, the steamer in the owner's hand fell to the ground: "Many, how much? You're not kidding me, are you?"

Chen Qi saw that there was no one around, so he took out a few cards of Great Unity from his pocket: "Just tell me if you have any? I can go without me."

"Yes, yes, let alone 200, you have 400. In this way, the price will be 1 cent cheaper. You also know that I don't make much money in this small business..."

The store owner was so excited that his hands were shaking when he heard that the big customer was coming, and he could make a lot of money from just this single business.

Chen Qi looked at the chime clock in the snack bar: "Then quickly help me put it on, I'm still driving the car."

Half an hour later, Chen Qi, who was sitting in the car, already had a big meat bun in his left hand and a big fried dough stick in his right hand. He ate it with great relish, making the other passengers in the car so delicious.

After getting off the car in Keqiao Town, Chen Qi arrogantly went to the pier to change to the ferry.

For 2 cents, you can take a boat from Keqiao to Butou Village. After disembarking from here, it only takes about 2 hours to walk to Xiaze Village, and 2 cents can save you nearly 3 hours of walking.

For mountain people, they think that only a fool would pay 2 cents for a boat ride.

For Chen Qi, a modern person, he thinks only a fool would walk for 3 hours to save 20 cents. Isn’t this looking for abuse?

When he returned to the entrance of Xiaze Village, he saw his younger brother and younger sister waiting under the century-old camphor tree from a distance.

"Big brother, big brother is back!"

The two of them ran over like flying, obviously they had been waiting for several days.

At this time, Chen Qi was carrying a lot of things in big and small bags, and the two little guys knew at a glance that the eldest brother had made money.

Seeing the excited younger brother and younger sister, Chen Qi hurriedly made a silent movement: "Shh, keep your voice down, don't be seen by outsiders."

The three of them nodded together and groped towards the door like thieves. Just like that, they were still seen by the second aunt Liu Cai'e. Chen Qi wondered if the woman was too full to do anything and kept staring at her home.

"Yo, isn't this the second child? Bring so many things? What's there?"

Second Aunt looked at it, and at the same time stretched out her hand to look through it.

Chen Qi turned around and made a beautiful move, avoiding the second aunt's hand.

"Second aunt, these are books issued by the school, so don't look at them as heavy, they are actually useless."

Liu Cai'e was a little confused, she clearly saw the pattern of mung bean cake written and drawn on the packaging box, how did it become a textbook?

She was a little angry, thinking that the nerd Chen Qi had failed his studies and would open his eyes and talk nonsense, and was about to go forward to pick and pull a few more times, but who knew that the three brothers and sisters of the Chen family ran so fast that they disappeared in a blink of an eye.

"Little coffin, I don't know where I got the cakes, and I don't know where to send some to my second uncle's house."

Liu Cai'e stomped her foot, turned her buttocks and walked into her small courtyard, but she didn't think about it, how had she ever helped the elders a little in these years?

In fact, Chen Qi didn't have any resentment or dissatisfaction with Liu Cai'e.

The granary knows the etiquette, and the food and clothing are sufficient to know the honor and disgrace.

Now every household is poor, and no one has any surplus food. If you help others, you will starve yourself. Of course, you can only be selfish.

But understand it, understand it, Chen Qi is not a saintly temper, if you don't help me, why should I respect you as an elder? Wouldn't it be better for everyone to take care of each other and not interfere with each other?

After finally getting some delicious food, of course it is necessary to close the door and feed it to my family first, otherwise one family will share some and that family will share some, and in the end the three monks have no water to drink.
