Reborn 1980's hot and sassy wife
Chapter 8 Buying 2 Catties of Sugar
Shi Xiaoyong and Shi Xiaowei glanced at Shi Xiaohong, and Shi Xiaoyong frowned: "What are you going to do? Look at my little sister at home, by the way, my eldest brother and I come back for lunch at noon, you and my little sister get something to fill you up!"
Only then did Shi Xiaolin remember that her elder brother and her second brother both worked in the Qinjiazhuang tile factory opposite Shitai Village. This tile factory was built only last year, and the business was booming. Eight villages in a radius of ten miles came to buy tiles from their house.
As for Shi Xiaoyong and Shi Xiaowei, they are the people who dig, step on the mud and remove the bricks in the brick factory. It's seventy-eight cents, ten days is seventy-eight yuan, and a month is more than ten yuan. In their area, this kind of salary is not low.
Shi Xiaohong also wanted to go, but his family members knew that he was not in good health, so they didn't want him to go. As long as it wasn't spring planting and harvesting, most of the time, he and Shi Xiaolin would do some light work at home.
Shi Xiaoyong and Shi Xiaowei went out shoulder to shoulder. Shi Xiaohong couldn't help but feel anxious. His elder brother Shi Xiaowei is almost 25 years old. There are very few people in Shitai Village who are not married at the age of 25. His younger sister knows that he is anxious about his elder brother's dowry money. , how is he not in a hurry?
Shi Xiaoyong was in a hurry, it was almost ten o'clock, and the brick factory asked to work until six or seven in the afternoon at ten o'clock, and they would work overtime if they were rushed.
Of course, people at this time did not know what overtime was.
After they left, at almost twelve o'clock, Wang Guifen and the others came back. The couple carried baskets on their shoulders, which were full of large and small potato eggs.
At this time, the artichokes can’t be sold for much money. They are mainly used to feed pigs, chickens and people, so that they can save some food. In addition to paying taxes, they also sell them. This is the most important thing in the family. source of income.
Shi Xiaoyong and the others came back in a hurry. They each ate two bowls of corn rice and were full. They turned around and ran away with red bayberries in their hands.
In the afternoon, Wang Guifen and the others had to go up the mountain to dig potatoes, so Shi Xiaolin asked Wang Guifen for 20 yuan.
The dowry money was not enough either. This money was meant to supplement Shi Xiaolin's health. Let alone 20 yuan, even if Shi Xiaolin wanted to leave, Wang Guifen would give Shi Xiaolin the same attitude as her pet.
After getting the money, after Wang Guifen and the others left, Shi Xiaolin said to Shi Xiaohong: "Third brother, go, accompany me to the town to buy something!"
Shi Xiaohong didn't ask any further questions, took two food stamps, and went out with Shi Xiaolin.
It is about three or four kilometers from Shitai Village to Guanba Town. After walking for more than an hour, we arrived at Guanba Town.
Shi Xiaolin remembers turning right in front of the supply and marketing cooperative, and there was a black market, which was said to be a black market, because Guanba Town had not started a large number of individual businesses, and people still mainly exchanged tickets at the supply and marketing cooperative for anything they wanted.
But Shi Xiaolin knew that in less than a year, individual businesses would spring up at a rapid rate, and when the spring breeze came, many people went to sea to do business, becoming the first group of people in the country to become rich.
Shi Xiaohong frowned slightly when he saw that Shi Xiaolin knew the way well.
Shi Xiaolin is indeed very familiar with this place. In order to please Du Wentao, she doesn't only care about asking for money from home, she also goes up the mountain to pick some wild vegetables or pickles at home, etc., and sells them here. Remittance to Du Wentao who was studying in the provincial capital.
The sun was hot above her head, Shi Xiaolin raised her hand to wipe the sweat from her forehead, the real fabric, although a bit hard, was cool, she walked through the streets selling all kinds of vegetables and eggs on both sides, and soon, she saw a store.
This should be the earliest grocery store in Guanba Town. It sells a lot of things. A few months ago, the store also sold clam oil and some candies. Of course, there are also canned food and malted milk. Here You don't need a ticket, just have money.
"Boss, is there any flour?"
Shi Xiaolin was standing pretty in the store, and the boss saw him at a glance. He was young, he looked less than 30 years old, and the store was full of things, because the place was small, and he was afraid of being caught, so , leaving only one door.
"Yes, how much do you want?"
"Give me ten catties of flour!"
Shi Xiaolin asked for ten catties of flour in one mouthful. Even if Shi Xiaohong didn't know the price, he knew it was not cheap. He wanted to call Shi Xiaolin, but her eyes were shining brightly, and she swallowed the words again.
"Ten catties of flour, do you want anything else?"
A catty of fine noodles in the county town costs [-] cents a catty, but he buys from the county seat, and after getting it back, he increases it by two cents per catty, that is to say, ten catties of flour costs one yuan and twenty cents.
"There is also white sugar, boss, give me two catties of white sugar!"
Hearing that he wanted white sugar, the boss couldn't help but take a look at Shi Xiaolin. White sugar is not cheap, and most people are reluctant to eat it. In his shop, it costs [-] cents a catty, and two catties of white sugar is one yuan and six!
Shi Xiaolin did the math, the ketchup was the only thing needed to make french fries. Without ketchup, she planned to go home and make some jam to top it with. I don't dare to buy too much. If the business is not good, I will lose money.
Eggs are needed to make bread, and all the eggs at home are given away, so she will buy eggs later.
"Comrade, do you make steamed buns or buns?"
It is white flour and sugar, so it must be some kind of pasta.
"Comrade, if you want to make steamed buns and steamed buns, I advise you to buy some saccharin. It's cheap, sweet, and cost-effective! White sugar is too expensive!"
It was only then that Shi Xiaolin remembered that in this day and age, white sugar was an extremely expensive thing, and ordinary people would not bear to eat it. Every year, the little sugar tickets were saved up and exchanged for the most important relatives.
Saccharin is the most common thing in this era, because it is cheap, a few grains of saccharin can make a pot of water sweet, which is much more cost-effective than white sugar.
But Shi Xiaolin from the future knows that saccharin is actually not sugar, but a synthetic sweetener extracted from coal tar. Eating too much will affect human health.
She thought for a while, then shook her head: "Boss, then give me some brown sugar, and then some white sugar!"
Brown sugar is less expensive than white sugar.
Carrying things out, Shi Xiaolin lamented that 20 yuan is really too much to spend in this era. She bought ten catties of flour, two catties of brown sugar and one catty of white sugar, which totaled less than three yuan.
Holding a huge sum of 17 yuan in her hand, Shi Xiaolin looked at the eggs not far away: "Third brother, I still need to buy some eggs..."
"Don't buy it in the town, it's expensive. After I get home, I'll go to Ding Jian's country to buy it!"
Eggs in the town are a penny or two more expensive than in the village. Although a penny is negligible in Shi Xiaolin's opinion, Shi Xiaohong cares a lot. He only knows that money is now calculated in cents.
The brothers and sisters had just bought [-] eggs from Ding Jianguo. Before they entered the house, they saw several people standing in the yard of their house. Among them were two faces that Shi Xiaolin and Shi Xiaohong knew.
"Uncle Gui Hai, why are you here?"
Only then did Shi Xiaolin remember that her elder brother and her second brother both worked in the Qinjiazhuang tile factory opposite Shitai Village. This tile factory was built only last year, and the business was booming. Eight villages in a radius of ten miles came to buy tiles from their house.
