After relying on the motherland, my supermarket has become more and more prosperous.
Chapter 499 There is strength in numbers
There is strength in numbers!
Everyone knows this sentence in modern times, but few people truly regard it as the truth.
After all, with the rapid development of modern technology, many things that require a lot of manpower can be replaced by machines.
Jiang Wanwan is a modern person. Even though she traveled back to a special period and met a group of revolutionary martyrs, even though she was moved, admired, pitied, and distressed... she even empathized with them with tears in her eyes many times.
But these still cannot change the fact that Jiang Wanwan is a modern person and will subconsciously think about things with modern thinking.
Therefore, she never thought that for people in this special period, the phrase "strength in numbers" is not just a slogan, but a bloody fact.
I heard that Mrs. Yang has seven children, and Aunt Yang is about to give birth to her sixth.
Jiang Wanwan habitually thought that this was a case of favoring boys over girls, of continuing the family line, and of feudal remnants exploiting women.
But they never thought that they were doing this voluntarily or even proactively, and that these women were using their own methods to contribute to the crumbling motherland.
Yes, your body is your own. Even the most ignorant woman knows that giving birth to children continuously is not good for your health.
But they still did it, everyone did it, wasting their energy to give birth to child after child, just to add more strength to the country and keep more fire.
Suddenly, Jiang Wanwan remembered a piece of news that she had seen by chance before.
There was a family in a certain place with seven martyrs in the family. The old lady's seven sons all died in the Anti-Japanese War. They were honored by netizens as the modern version of the Yang Family Generals.
Originally thought to be an isolated case, but now considering the current situation, Jiang Wanwan couldn't help but guess that perhaps such 'Yang Family Generals' are everywhere in this era!
Even men have to take over when they lose their women, and women have to take over when they lose their children, until the whole family is extinct and finally drowned in the long river of history.
When reading history books, Jiang Wanwan realized how tragic the country was during this period.
However, as she experienced this firsthand, one insignificant incident after another repeatedly refreshed her understanding of the word "tragic".
Yes, how could it not be tragic? Tens of millions of our compatriots died during this period!
Behind the cold numbers are living lives, fathers, children, and families that are either incomplete or complete!
Jiang Wanwan opened her mouth, wanting to persuade them that they didn't need to keep having children because the country was about to win.
However, when the words came to my lips, I couldn't say them.
Because Jiang Wanwan thought again that the founding of New China did not mean that it would be far away from artillery fire. In the following ten years, the soldiers were still fighting non-stop.
Furthermore, a country after war needs to recover, build, develop, and most importantly, it needs manpower!
And where can the manpower come from?
Therefore, Jiang Wanwan, with a "despicable" mind and a sense of guilt, ultimately did not say a word of persuasion.
Mrs. Yang had already left with the children, carrying two sacks on her back, without anyone noticing.
Aunt Yang waited for a moment, but finally couldn't help herself and asked cautiously, "Miss Jiang, when are we going to test that thing?"
Hearing the voice, Jiang Wanwan, who had been looking a little depressed, came back to her senses, quickly reorganized her thoughts, and cheered up to do her work.
I just guided Aunt Yang and a few children to check the values.
The second son of Mrs. Yang happened to come over with the eight-month pregnant wife of the Yang family.
An eight-month pregnant belly looks more conspicuous than a watermelon, and it looks even more frightening when the pregnant woman is extremely skinny.
Jiang Wanwan was extremely nervous throughout the whole process. She carefully checked the data and only relaxed after seeing the other party walking out of the supermarket in small steps.
Second Aunt Yang is a generation older than eldest sister Yang and is much older, but there is no difference in their knowledge of numbers.
To sum it up in one sentence, I don’t know what I can buy with the value I have.
So Jiang Wanwan had no choice but to follow the method of receiving Mrs. Yang before.
Let the other party take the goods they are sure to need first, and she will help calculate and distribute the remaining bulk.
They are ordinary families in the village, and the most needed supplies are all kinds of food that can be preserved for a long time.
On the other side, Mrs. Yang left the supermarket very quickly and efficiently.
When Jiang Wanwan and Aunt Yang finished finalizing the shopping list, they heard some noise outside the supermarket.
The villagers who had just arrived naturally had little trust in the supermarket and Jiang Wanwan who had suddenly appeared.
Fortunately, there was an acquaintance like Aunt Yang, who was busy packing her own supplies into sacks while also explaining the situation to other villagers.
Just like inheritance!
After this incident, Jiang Wanwan became increasingly busy.
Many times, the next family arrives before the previous family has even finalized their shopping list.
So soon, Jiang Wanwan no longer had to worry about testing the country's destiny factors.
There was a long line in front of the checkout counter, waiting to buy goods.
The originally quiet supermarket suddenly became bustling. In addition to the adults queuing, there were also rows of children.
As more people come, everyone can't stop talking, and the supermarket becomes more and more lively.
Fortunately, as she received more people, Jiang Wanwan became more and more adept at it, and she was able to finalize the shopping list much faster than before.
This busy process lasted for two or three hours.
During this period, Jiang Wanwan received guests from forty or fifty households, which was probably all the residents in the vicinity.
Each household has at least one or two people and at most more than a dozen people, and most of them have fewer adults and more children.
The total amount of national fortune factors owned by these guests, who are groups of families, is mostly around 10,000 points.
Even the smallest one has several thousand points of national destiny factors, and the largest one has thirty to forty thousand.
As for the goods they purchased, they were naturally mainly food.
Among all the goods, the most popular ones are the cheap shachima, followed by chocolate, braised eggs and canned food.
Every household came in with empty sacks in a nervous mood, and then went home happily carrying sacks of different sizes.
After all, these precious materials are no different from getting them for free.
Some people were quick-witted. After returning home and hiding their things, they hurried to inform their relatives and friends in the next village.
These are all free benefits, so naturally you have to bring your relatives along.
Of course, we only notify relatives nearby, and forget about those who are too far away.
But they all heard that the generous Miss Jiang would only stay for one day and leave in the middle of the night.
