Daily life of female supporting actresses in the 1970s
Chapter 82 Going to the market
This should be the collection of the old man at the scrap yard. The book says that the old man controls the black market and has some relationship with Wang Haiyang, so it is normal for him to hide some treasures.
Many years later in the book, Wang Haiyang returned to China and made a special visit to Shanshui Village.
Seeing these things now, Jiang Yanqiu felt that it was impossible for him to make a special trip here to reminisce, nor was it possible for him to come here specifically to inquire about the situation of the heroine and the others.
In all likelihood they are back to transfer the treasure they have here.
Jiang Yanqiu no longer cared about the underground treasure. She didn't have the ability to take these things away now, so she gave up and came back to take them when she had the chance.
I went to see if there was any treasure elsewhere, and suddenly I saw a lame table in the yard with a golden halo and white outside the halo.
This should be the lame table that Zhao Lanlan bought.
Jiang Yanqiu went straight over when she saw the old man busy, and was thinking about how to find the switch of the table.
As soon as I approached the table, I saw the structure of the table displayed in the space.
He easily found the switch of the table's mezzanine, then calmly put the gold into the space, closed the mezzanine, and left the table with a little regret.
She looked around but didn't find anything glowing. There were only two rooms in the house that were not locked, and one of them was the one where the newspaper was kept.
I went to the room where the newspapers were kept and took away all the few newspapers in there, about ten pounds at most.
I passed by another unlocked room where waste books were kept. I took a casual look and found that two books were flashing red light, and there was also white light outside.
I went in and picked up both books, one was "Records of the Grand Historian" and the other was "Records of the Three Kingdoms".
She looked at the books around her, all of which were history books, so she simply took them all away.
When they got outside and weighed it, the total was five dollars and sixty cents. The old man asked curiously, "Why did you buy so many newspapers?"
Jiang Yanqiu replied, "It's papering the wall, sir. Could you please give me another bag to put it in?"
"Two cents for a sack of sackcloth, and three cents for a urea bag."
"Take the urea bag."
A sack can hold 200 kilograms, but it's a waste of material to hold this little stuff. It's not only ugly but also difficult to carry.
The urea bag can hold 80 kilograms. It can not only be used to store things, but also as a raincoat. The most important thing is that it can also be made into clothes!
It is an honor to use urea bags to make clothes and pants.
The villagers did not buy any urea except for the one allocated from above. As there was not much urea in the village, it was given as a reward to villagers with good performance, and those villagers used it to make clothes and pants.
What’s funny is that the urea distributed this year was imported from the Japanese.
Some people put the name of the Japanese country under their buttocks and held a farting competition to avenge the hatred of the past.
What's worse, some people put the boy's country's name on his crotch.
After coming out of the scrap yard, Jiang Yanqiu didn't do anything else and went straight to the savings bank to deposit money.
Not many people save money these days, and there is no need to queue up. She only saved 600 yuan and kept 200 yuan on her as a backup.
When I came out, I just saw Qiao Lei walking towards me from the opposite direction.
The two of them never said hello to each other and just went their separate ways.
However, what Jiang Yanqiu didn't notice was that after she walked away, Qiao Lei went straight into the savings bank.
Qiao Lei asked some questions about saving money, then grabbed a handful of melon seeds and gave them to the staff, and the two of them started chatting.
After a while, she found out that Jiang Yanqiu had saved 600 yuan.
Qiao Lei didn't expect Jiang Yanqiu to have so much money! After building a house and buying a lot of things, she still had 600 yuan left!
No one in the village had heard of anyone losing money, and Jiang Yanqiu had never been to the commune. So it seemed that the money must belong to Jiang Yanqiu!
Qiao Lei suddenly remembered that Jiang Yanqiu seemed to have cut off ties with her family, and wondered if she had taken away all the family's money.
However, Jiang Yanqiu was quite smart and used all the money known to the villagers to build a house.
This way, no one will be interested in the money in her hands!
If she hadn't built such a large half-brick and tile house, the educated youth would probably have become a place where second-rate people would visit every day.
It’s okay for the second-rate guys, but now the village forces them to stay away from the educated youth sites, so they can’t do anything too bad.
What they were afraid of was that thieves from the entire commune would come to their educated youth site to scout out the area.
That amount of money may not be much, but if it is spent on an educated youth with no background, everyone will be jealous.
The key point is that female educated youth without any background are seen as lambs to be slaughtered in the eyes of the locals.
After leaving the bank, Qiao Lei walked around again. Since she had nothing to sell, she simply went to the purchasing station.
Since Gu Qingqing was so unkind as to refuse to sell food to her, then don't blame her for unjustly snatching the opportunity that belonged to Gu Qingqing.
When they arrived at the scrap collection station, she used the excuse of buying waste newspapers, but the old man directly said he didn't have any.
Another excuse: buying books!
The old man looked up at her and said, "What book do you want to buy?"
Qiao Lei said directly: "Any book will do."
The old man took out a bag of discarded books he had just bought and handed it to her, saying, "Here, see if it's enough."
Qiao Lei's smile froze. She shouldn't have come to the commune today. Nothing went right anywhere.
In the end, I had no choice but to bite the bullet and find a few newer books to take back.
Some of them are so dirty that they are useless except for burning firewood.
Jiang Yanqiu went to the door of the supply and marketing cooperative and happened to meet Xu Yan and the Tian sisters.
Xu Yan greeted her and said, "What do you want to buy? There are too many people here right now. Why don't you go to the market first?"
Jiang Yanqiu replied: "Farm tools, kerosene, and seasonings."
Xu Yan said, "Then hurry up and buy it. We'll wait for you and go together."
Jiang Yanqiu thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to the market first, and then buy it when we come back. It's hard to carry the things after we buy them. Anyway, these things can be bought anytime."
"Okay!" The four of them went to the post office first, but didn't see Zhao Lanlan, so they ignored her and went straight to the market.
The square where the commune usually criticized people was packed with people today. Each brigade had a special area to store handicrafts, mountain products, and surplus grain.
Accountant Li and Village Chief Zhao took the list of supplies needed by the village to the territories of other brigades and exchanged them for anything they liked.
If someone needs something that you don't have, and they happen to have what you need, you can go find someone who needs your supplies, and the three parties can barter.
If the members don't require much supplies, they don't need the village head and accountant, they can exchange them themselves.
There are special management personnel and it is prohibited to raise prices for purchases.
As for some monetary transactions, as long as you don’t buy too many, the administrator will turn a blind eye.
Jiang Yanqiu saw someone selling bamboo backpacks and bamboo baskets, so she bought two of each, one for going to the market and the other for carrying things.
Otherwise, she would always carry the load on her shoulder, which would hurt her shoulders. Moreover, she could only carry it on her right shoulder, so after a long time, one shoulder would be higher than the other.
Later, Jiang Yanqiu bought a few reed stalks to cover the curtains and pot lids. As for industrial products, they couldn't squeeze in.
Normally, no one has tickets to buy, but today there are some that are not needed, so everyone is rushing to buy them, each one more aggressive than the other.
Xu Yan and the Tian sisters are simply foodies. They can't walk anymore when they see walnuts, melon seeds, pine nuts, peanuts and apples, and they buy whatever food they see along the way.
They have been to this small market four times.
Jiang Yanqiu was afraid that these people would lose their money, so she kept following them, fearing that their wallets would be stolen.
After leaving the market, the four of them went to eat a bowl of plain noodles before heading to the supply and marketing cooperative, where not many people were around.
Jiang Yanqiu bought various seasonings, kerosene, and farm tools, including a hatchet, hoe, pickaxe, shovel, and sickle.
The other salesmen refused to sell them, saying that these items usually required tickets, and that one could only buy a few commonly used items with an educated youth certificate and a letter of introduction.
She also used industrial coupons to buy a kerosene lamp with a glass cover.
She rarely used the kerosene lamp made from an ink bottle. The wall where the kerosene lamp was placed was blackened, and it would go out as soon as there was a breeze.
One person waited for another, and it took more than two hours before several people went to wait for the bus.
When they arrived at the fork in the road where they were waiting for the bus, all the people from their educated youth point were waiting there.
Seeing the broken-legged table in front of Zhao Lanlan, Jiang Yanqiu covered her head helplessly.
This tool man is really competent, so I bought this table back.
Wouldn't this lead to those people causing trouble for Gu Qingqing again?
In addition to the table and four chairs, there was also a nice big box, but the book did not mention that Zhao Lanlan bought the box.
This wouldn't be another way to send money to Gu Qingqing, right?
