Stargirl's guide to life in the 70s

Chapter 139 Buying tobacco and alcohol

There were four adults and one child in the carriage, chatting all the time on the way.

In addition, it was the first time for Yu Jiang and the kid Junjun next door to take a train, so the novelty was still there. Looking at the scenery along the way, Yu Jiang felt that the day passed quite quickly.

It was the third day. Although Yujiang thought that his current physical fitness was very good, he still couldn't resist the fatigue caused by not sleeping well.

Junjun's kid also felt a little sleepy because he didn't sleep well last night and was stuck in the car for the past few days.

But even if you don’t sleep well, you still need to eat well. What Yu Jiang and the others ate yesterday were the steamed buns from the state-owned restaurant and some portable vegetables packed by Lu Mu for them. It was winter now, so they were not afraid of anything spoiled.

But today Yu Jiang suddenly wanted to taste the food on the train.

Before leaving, Yu Jiang also asked the Fang family and his wife if they wanted to bring them some food. Now that Junjun finally fell asleep, the Fang family and his wife would naturally not leave their children out.

Moreover, they also thought that when they went out to eat later, they could take Junjun out for some fresh air, so they also declined the invitations of Yu Jiang and Lu Beiyuan.

Lu Beiyuan naturally wanted what he wanted. He took Yu Jiang's little hand and took two lunch boxes with the other hand to the carriage where the meals were provided.

Yu Jiang looked at the food on the train and thought it was really good. Except for the dishes that were too soupy and difficult to serve, there were many other dishes. And because the train traveled to various places, the dishes on the train were also very complete. .

Yu Jiang directly ordered a braised fish, then a pork stewed vermicelli and two bowls of rice.

Lu Beiyuan looked at Yu Jiang's order and couldn't help but smile: Yes, this girl can remember his food preferences now. It seems that all her efforts during this period were not in vain!

While waiting for the food, Yu Jiang flipped through the menu out of boredom and found that just like on the plane, you could even order Moutai to drink.

It's a pity that after the last time, Yu Jiang has realized her drinking capacity. Although she still hadn't stopped thinking about trying it again in the future, she still didn't dare to order a drink in front of a large crowd.

Of course Yu Jiang wouldn't let Lu Beiyuan drink if he couldn't drink it himself! After all, she had seen what Lu Beiyuan was like when he was drunk, and she didn't want to serve this man anymore!

Lu Beiyuan never thought about drinking on the train. After all, this was not an absolutely safe place, and he needed to stay awake at all times to face possible emergencies.

So both of them regretfully gave up.

However, Lu Beiyuan saw Yu Jiang's disappointment and comforted him: "I heard that there is a place specializing in selling wine on the train. We can look for it after dinner.

Yu Jiang's eyes lit up, this was a good idea!

The two people who thought about buying wine were not in a hurry to return to the carriage after eating. They simply strolled on the train and looked for the place where Lu Beiyuan just mentioned that they could sell wine.

After such a stroll, they actually found it. Not only did there be a wine counter on the train, but cigarettes were also sold at the counter!

Moreover, the counters sold cigarettes and alcohol that were not cheap. The only ones Yu Jiang knew were Daqianmen cigarettes and Maotai liquor. However, these two are considered to be the most expensive types of tobacco and alcohol available today.

Yu Jiang thought of several batches of Maotai liquor collected at home. After discussing with Lu Beiyuan, Yu Jiang found a deserted corner and secretly exchanged cigarette and alcohol tickets in the time and space exchange machine. Then the two went directly to the counter and asked the salesperson for thirty cartons of cigarettes and twenty bottles of wine.

Of course, not all the cigarettes and alcohol belonged to Yu Jiang. Twenty of the thirty cigarettes were taken back by Lu Beiyuan and distributed to his comrades, but Yu Jiang still bought ten.

Although Yu Jiang didn't smoke cigarettes, her father and her grandfather would occasionally smoke them. In addition, these cigarettes can be said to be an excellent weapon for interpersonal relationships.

So even though a door at the front door costs four yuan, for Yu Jiang, who already has a household worth ten thousand yuan in this era, she still doesn't feel bad about the small amount of money.

As for Maotai, she and Lu Beiyuan had ten bottles each. Anyway, the longer the wine is stored, the better. If it weren't for the fear that buying too much would arouse suspicion, Yu Jiang would have wanted to empty the car of wine.

Afterwards, she could ask Zhu San to help her pay attention and buy some to save.

Just such an amount scared the salesperson at the counter. They had seen people who were not short of money come to buy so much cigarettes and alcohol from them before, but this was the first time she had seen such a large amount!

However, he was shocked. The salesperson's checkout speed was not slow at all. Yujiang spent a total of 100 yuan on the big front door for 10 yuan a piece and Moutai for 40 yuan a bottle. Lu Beiyuan bought more than Yu Jiang. Smoking, so I spent an extra yuan.

As for the bills they spent, they were exchanged for cabbage prices in the space-time exchange machine anyway, so they didn't feel bad at all.

It was impossible to have so many cigarettes and alcohol on the counter. After confirming that the two of them really wanted to buy, the salesperson took the two of them directly to the warehouse.

After passing through several carriages carrying goods, several people arrived at the last carriage of the train.

The salesperson brought out all the cigarettes and wine they needed, including one box of cigarettes and two boxes of wine. Although they could carry them, walking back to the carriage was still a bit too conspicuous.

Yu Jiang nodded to Lu Beiyuan, and then activated his mind control.

At this time, there was only the salesperson in the warehouse carriage, so Yu Jiang easily controlled her thoughts.

It can't be said to be controlling, but it just made her subconsciously not care whether Lu Beiyuan and Yu Jiang were holding the two boxes just now, and blurred the faces of Lu Beiyuan and Yu Jiang in her place. impression.

Anyway, it wouldn't have any impact on the waiter. Yu Jiang put the nine cigarettes and ten bottles of wine he bought into the bracelet space in front of her without any psychological burden.

Lu Beiyuan only kept three cigarettes and put the rest into the bracelet space.

When the two of them returned to the compartment where the tobacco and alcohol counters were sold, only Lu Beiyuan was holding a box that was not too heavy.

And he was holding the box just because he didn't want people to know that he bought cigarettes. When they got to the carriage, they put the cigarettes into their luggage, and the mission of the box was completed.

Since there was only one salesperson at the tobacco and alcohol counter, she locked the warehouse door and left first.

Yu Jiang and Lu Beiyuan were also happy to walk back slowly.

However, when the two of them passed by a carriage carrying goods, they unexpectedly heard the whispers of people in the corner.

A man's voice sounded: "Finally I got this little brat!"

Another woman also echoed: "Yes! No matter how strict we are, we still won't get it! This guy can definitely be sold at a good price!"

Listening to some words in the conversation between the two, Yu Jiang suddenly became alert: This is a human trafficker!
