Chiba Salted Fish Legend

Chapter 269

Before the end of noon, Xia Zhi had finalized the gift for his mother - a relatively cheap brand scarf. Although Xia Zhi didn't understand why even the scarf had such a high-end brand, just for the original In terms of purpose, the goal you want to achieve can be achieved.

As for the kimono for Xia Meng, Xia Zhi woke her up to choose it. However, she didn't care much about the style of the clothes. Xia Zhi recommended several styles to her that she thought looked good, but she didn't think much about it. He pointed to a piece of fabric with a white background and pink cherry blossoms printed on it.It should be suitable, although I probably won't be able to see it with my own eyes.After all, I will pass in a few days.

The originally fifteen-day long vacation was coming to an end in the blink of an eye, and I felt mixed.

As for the wine for Dad, it was finalized without any accidents, but the price has risen in the past two days, so it is better to buy it in a few days.Xia Zhi has no objection, anyway, it's not a gift that needs to be delivered within a specific time, it's just better to hurry up.

After buying the things, Xia Zhi asked Tachibana Aya to find a place to eat.And Xia Zhi has to start preparing lunch. Today at noon, only she and Xia Meng are still eating, but what is different from the previous two days is that this afternoon Xia Zhi has to go out and look for gifts to take back, such as Specialty tea for Shiraishi Reika, or some undecided gift for Tachibana Aya, etc. You can also buy him a bunch of small gifts like Chinese knots. Anyway, there will definitely be a bunch of gifts to give away, so many It’s also good to buy some gifts with Chinese characteristics.

"Xiaomeng, do you want to go shopping with me later?"

"buy what?"

"Buy some gifts or something for the people who helped. If you have something you want to eat, you can also buy it back."

"Forget it, I'm not interested in gifts bought for other women."

???

This sentence doesn't feel right...but Xia Zhi couldn't tell what was wrong.

"The store manager is a middle-aged uncle."

"Isn't the gift you want to bring him wine? How many of the things you bring as gifts are not for girls?"

"Of course! For example..."

Xia Zhi thought about it, and the answer he thought he could blurt out now could not say a word. This was beyond Xia Zhi's expectation.

I have a good relationship with male friends, um... I don’t have any?Xia Zhi was shocked.But it's best not to express it too obviously, otherwise Xia Meng will definitely dislike it.

"For example, Qingfeng and Tendo are in the same class as me."

"Really? What's his full name?"

Xia Zhi broke into a cold sweat on the spot.What's Qingfeng's full name? How does he know?I have been calling Qingfeng for a whole semester, because I often have to work part-time, or every weekend when I can go out to play, I am booked in advance by Shiraishi Rika or Tachibana Aya, so although the relationship sounds good on the surface Xia Zhi, a boy in the same class, actually couldn't remember the birthdays of his classmates.

That alone is annoying enough.Xia Zhi felt that in order to maintain his harmonious position in the class, this matter must not be known to the person involved.As for their names, I have to find a way to write them down... It's coming again, this kind of behavior of trying to remember other people's faces and names when getting along with new classmates in a new semester at a new school.

"I don't know you yet? No matter how many times you do it again, it's always the same. Otherwise, why would I keep telling you not to fall in love, not to fall in love." Xia Meng gave her a blank look.

"Why do you make it sound like I have done many similar things like this? This is just a coincidence." Xia Zhi scratched his head.

"Hmph. If you want to go, you can go by yourself. I want to read at home."

"……All right."

So, after eating, Xia Zhi walked out of the house alone and started walking towards the street.

Although people in China do not regard the New Year as a holiday, this does not prevent them from raising the prices of goods on this day to celebrate.Maybe there are fools who are blinded by the Gregorian calendar and mistaking money for money and are fooled?
Xia Zhi prayed that these vendors would retain their conscience, at least the prices of the things they wanted to buy would not increase, and even if the prices did increase, they would not increase too much. It would be nice to be considerate of the student gang who have no money, but they also want the horse to run away. How can there be such a good thing in the world if you don't feed the horses quickly?

In a dream, there is everything in a dream.

The first place we walked to was a tea shop located on a downhill road. There are many places with large altitude differences in the south, so this is not surprising.Xia Zhi only knew about this tea shop. As for whether the goods in it were good or not, or what kind of tea they had, Xia Zhi had no idea.

In order not to be ripped off too much, before entering the store, Xia Zhi used his mobile phone to check online what specialty teas he had here and what their prices were. If he usually buys something he is not familiar with, You can also use this method to get a rough understanding of it, otherwise others will think that you are not familiar with this thing, and you will double the words when you open your mouth. If you are still flattered, then don't blame others for thinking you are a fool.

Er Qiao bought food in Egypt and was defrauded of several times the money. This is the most true portrayal of you.

"Want to buy tea?"

The person who looked like the store manager asked bluntly.It's better to be straightforward, it can save a lot of time.

"What kind of things are there? I want to buy some to give away."

"Giving it to someone, who are you giving it to? If it's a gift to your girlfriend, I recommend you buy some Anxi Tieguanyin. Most girls like this kind. Or our specialty tea here is also good, such as this Duyun Maojian is also a very famous tea." The store manager was smiling all over his face, and Xia Zhi always felt that he had seen this kind of smile somewhere before. It was a kind of malicious or meaningful smile.

"Anxi Tieguanyin, and Duyun Maojian..." Xia Zhi muttered to himself, then unceremoniously picked up his mobile phone and started Baidu, completely ignoring the store manager's stiff face: "Anxi Tieguanyin, One of the top ten famous teas in China, the highest transaction price of the treasure is 67 per kilogram... Duyun Maojian is also one of the top ten famous teas. The auction price of the special treasure tea king is 66 per kilogram... Hiss. "

Xia Zhi raised his head and glanced at the store manager: "Are you too dedicated?"

"They are all treasures, the highest-grade ones. The ones I sell here are not that expensive, they are all at very ordinary prices. There are also slightly more expensive ones, and I usually only introduce them to regular customers." The store manager He smiled awkwardly.

"Is there any cheaper specialty tea from here? I'm just a student and my friend is out of town." Xia Zhi spread his hands.

"Then take a look at this one over here." The store manager also understood Xia Zhi's purchasing power and simply took Xia Zhi to the other side.

Xia Zhi walked out of the tea shop with satisfaction, holding four taels of the specialty Maojian in his hand, which he spent about 200 yuan on.Who said that the poor drink tea and the rich drink alcohol?Stretch your head over, I'll give you a buff.

But as far as tea is concerned, four taels is actually not too much.It is also a permanent member of high-end consumer products, so it is not surprising that it is a little more expensive.Perhaps there are reasons for the price increase, but now that the New Year is coming, although it is not a holiday, raising prices when it is time to increase them is what a qualified businessman should do.

As long as you can accept it.

Xia Zhi has no money anymore.I'm thinking about asking my mom for pocket money or something. After all, in today's society, no one will give you a lot of free gifts.

Thinking that he was going to do it, Xia Zhi sent a message to his mother. Her mother readily gave Xia Zhi 100 yuan, and then said, "If you want it again, it will be gone." Sure enough, she probably wasn't the one to give it to her.Xia Zhi felt double malice from the world and his family.

While walking, Xia Zhi saw something interesting - an optical store that was having a sale.

This is quite suitable for tachibanasai who click on the computer and mobile phone all day long.Although I remember that she seems to have such a pair of anti-blue light glasses, she doesn't usually use them, it's better to say that she has been in a state of frantic fishing since she doesn't know when, and there is no sign that she is usually at work. .Every day, she ran to Xia Zhi's apartment like a normal person, and then played until eleven or twelve o'clock in the evening before going back. She had to go to class during the day, how could she have time to write?

I hope this gift can awaken her conscience and stop her from fishing all day long and losing the chance to create more valuable and in-depth cultural works for the broad masses of the people.It would be better if you could stop running to your apartment all day long.

I hope she can understand her good intentions in giving this gift.

Then Xia Zhi handed over the 100 yuan he just received plus the dozen yuan in his pocket.

Oh shit, it's over.

Can't they be considerate of people who don't have money?Were they really the successors of socialism before?Isn't this too stupid?
Xia Zhi placed his hope on his father, but the reply he received made him almost squat on the ground and cry.

"Your mother has already told me not to give you money, so just give up. Young people must learn to manage their own expenses."

What else can be done now?One five five one?
Otherwise, just ask the store if they want Japanese yen?If possible, I don't want to use ants. I feel that if I use it once, I won't be able to stop in the future.

Xia Zhi's cell phone rang, it was my sister.

"Hello? What's wrong?"

"You are shopping on the street now, right? Buy me some food by the way, and pick up a courier for me when you come back. The books I bought should have arrived."

"Although I can help you buy food, I have no money now..."

"...I still have six to seven hundred pocket money here. I'll transfer it to you first."

???

"Why do you have so much money?" Why do I only have so little money?
"Because I basically don't use the pocket money I usually give me. Except for buying some books last month, which cost a few hundred, I kept the rest. I'll transfer it to you first, and then return the rest to me."

Xia Zhi could not refuse the proposal.

"Okay, I'll pay you back when I have money."

"...I didn't ask you to pay me back, just do whatever you want." Then she hung up the phone.

Actually reduced to the point of borrowing money from his sister, Xia Zhi was so moved that he almost cried.
