Chapter 1353 The little widow in the courtyard 87
"Xiao Lei, you've already been admitted to university, you're an adult now."

"Tell me, what gift do you want?" Getting into college is a big deal, and Zhang Yu feels that he must come up with an expensive gift.

What gift? Zhao Lei really had never thought about it. "I think it's good now."

"Buy a watch."

"Of course, if you want to buy a watch, you need a watch ticket, so just buy a second-hand one." I don't know if the junk shop has any watches.

She had been there before and saw a Vacheron Constantin watch that cost more than 200 yuan. She was stunned, although she didn't know how much the watch would cost in later generations.

But if you wear it on your hand after forty years, it will definitely be worth money.

Zhang Yu bought it without thinking, luckily he still had money.

"Are you really going to buy me a watch?" Zhao Lei was pleasantly surprised.

"Of course, with a watch, you can also keep track of time during classes." People who go to college have to live on campus.

With a watch, you can better grasp the time. "When you come back on Saturday night, you can also grasp the time."

Kyoto University is quite far from my home, and it takes about 40 minutes by bike.

Zhao Hong looked at Zhao Lei with envy. Zhang Yu looked at the little girl's envious eyes and said, "When you get into college, mom will buy it for you too."

Zhang Yu actually didn't want to say that she would give you a watch after you got into college, because if that were the case, the little girl wouldn't be able to get the reward.

But this reward for Zhao Lei was only given for getting into university, so there was no reason to change the reward for the little girl.

"Okay." Zhao Hong didn't know what Zhang Yu was struggling with, but she knew that she was more motivated to take the college entrance examination.

Zhang Yu brought her two children, waved her money and rushed to the junk shop, going on a shopping spree.

Although it is impossible to make a fortune here, you can still find a lot of good things without paying for tickets.

For example, watches, woolen blankets, and thick carpets. Although the latter is troublesome to handle, the little girl Zhao Hong fell in love with it at first sight.

Zhang Yu touched it and found it was a pure handmade wool carpet, which made her very happy.

I was thinking of taking this thing home and seeing if I could disassemble it into wool yarn. Then after washing it several times and drying it in high temperature a few times, I could knit a sweater.

Wool is a good thing, but it’s a pity that you need a coupon to buy it.

Zhang Yu got to know someone who worked in a department store through the fish trading business. Through this person, he traded defective wool several times, but it was never enough.

Zhao Lei looked at Zhang Yu in confusion, as if she had found a treasure and excitedly bought several carpets. He wanted to dissuade her, but then he thought better of it, as it was rare to see her so happy.

So the neighbors in the compound were really puzzled when they saw Zhang Yu carrying back several carpets. They didn't understand why she bought them.

Although Zhang Yu's attic goes up barefoot, which makes it cleaner, there is no need to buy so many.

Everyone thought Zhang Yu was a spendthrift. “This is a hand-woven blanket made of pure wool.”

"When the time comes to take it apart, it's just wool. Just wash it carefully." If it wasn't for the washing and drying in the courtyard, she really didn't want to say it.

When everyone heard Zhang Yu's words, their eyes widened, and then they touched the blankets, "They are pure wool."

“And the colors are quite bright.”

Now people no longer complain about Zhang Yu's inability to live, but praise her for her ability to live. Zhang Yu is a proud girl, you see, she knows that everyone will praise her for being great after knowing this.

After knowing which junk store it was, the better-off neighbors certainly didn't want to miss it.

"That place is a bit far from the Siheyuan." Not only is it a bit far from the Siheyuan, it's also far from the scrap yard.

"I heard from my colleagues that the watches over there are newer." Zhang Yu explained why he went there.

"You bought a watch for Xiaolei?" Everyone was stunned and looked at Zhao Lei with jealousy.

Zhang Yu hummed, "I don't have a watch ticket, so I can't buy a new watch. But he needs someone to check the time when he goes to school, so I thought about buying a second-hand one."

Think about it, if you want to buy something big these days, money is not a problem at all, but tickets are a big problem.

Everyone stopped paying attention to the wool carpet and started staring at Zhao Lei's hands and the watch he was wearing.

Everyone kept sighing, "Nice watch."

Although it is a second-hand watch, it is a watch after all, and many people actually don’t have second-hand watches.

Knowing that no ticket was required, of course we had to ask about the price. After finding out the price of the watch, everyone was stunned.

“It’s not much cheaper than the ones in the department store.” After knowing the price, everyone changed their minds when they were originally planning to go and see if it was cheap and buy a watch.

Everyone once again thought that Zhang Yu was a fool. How much did a new watch cost, yet he didn't even think about buying a new one.

Zhang Yu was also helpless. "Of course I know new watches are cheaper, but I don't have a ticket. If I had a ticket, I would also like to buy a new one."

"I can't get the watch ticket. If I include the price of the ticket..." Zhang Yu asked them to calculate it themselves.

"I might as well buy a second-hand one. At least I can rest assured. It's better than taking risks." Ever since Zhao Lin's incident broke out, everyone has been very wary of the black market.

Not to mention that I don’t dare to mention it, I don’t even dare to go there, for fear that if I get caught, I won’t be able to explain myself clearly.

Another most important thing is that in the last operation, we really hit several large black markets and arrested many of the leaders there.

As to whether it has been really dealt with cleanly, Zhang Yu is not sure and does not dare to ask. It's just that at the moment, the black market will definitely not dare to show up, for fear of causing another disturbance.

Everyone thought the same thing, “It’s really hard to get a ticket now.”

"So, this watch is not bad." With the receipt, even if someone gets jealous and complains, this can be used as proof.

"Go and have a look." No matter how high the position of people living in the courtyard is, it is actually unlikely that they will get these tickets. Most of them are obtained by leaders living in the buildings.

“By the way, when I leave, I’ll take a wool carpet with me. I think there aren’t many left,” Zhang Yu added.

There are not many good things, but there are many people who discover good things, including her. She is really a good person. She is willing to share good things with others when she encounters them.

After hearing this, no one wanted to stay here to discuss and they left quickly.

Suddenly, there were not many people left in the courtyard that was bustling just now.

Zhang Yu happily pushed the things towards home. After that, no one discussed how many things she had purchased, but just kept busy washing the wool.

After Zhang Yu got home, he gently opened the heavy spoils and carefully took out some calligraphy and paintings.

She didn't expect to see several famous modern paintings in the junk shop. The current prices are not cheap, but in the future, the price will be at least several hundred W.
