Chapter 25 Shopping
Ye Jiaming also wanted to go to the county seat, so the two brothers set off on a bicycle.
The eldest brother, the Ye family, and here, it is better to go to the countryside to see if they can buy pig heads from private hands.
Gu Xia is also very busy here.
She first re-made up Chunxia, who came to see her, and sent her out, smiling and wishing her good luck with the meeting.
Then, she and her second sister-in-law went out on a bullock cart.
Gu Xia didn't know how to drive an oxcart, so her second sister-in-law drove the oxen mainly. She sat on the cart and knitted sweaters, not wasting any time working to earn points.
"Oh, Xiaoxia, you are too diligent now. You still have to carry wool to knit a sweater in this little time. The road is full of bumps and bumps. Can you knit well with your wandering?"
The second sister-in-law looked at it in amazement.
"If you can do it, just use your hands and it doesn't matter if you wander around."
Gu Xia asked her second sister-in-law to take a look at the stitches she knitted, and there was nothing wrong with them.
The second sister-in-law clicked her tongue twice and gave her a thumbs up.
They were close to the town. It only took about twenty minutes to reach the entrance of the town's supply and marketing cooperative.
Gu Xia and her second sister-in-law went in and went straight to the target, buying oil paper, jars, iron pans, etc.
After buying these, Gu Xia looked at the clothes hanging inside and asked the price.
He was dressed in coarse cloth, with a blue top and trousers, no design at all, and sold for ten yuan.
A really good shirt costs 15 yuan.
Because Gu Xia only asked about the price but didn't buy anything, the salesperson rolled her eyes at her frequently, her attitude became increasingly impatient, and her words sounded like curses.
That is to say, Gu Xia was well-dressed. Not only were her clothes not patched but also quite fashionable, she was also pretty and elegant, but the salesperson was just impatient.
Otherwise, she would probably be scolded, "If you are poor and can't afford it, don't ask about the price here. Even if you ask, you can't afford it."
After coming out of the supply and marketing cooperative, the second sister-in-law was so angry that she cursed,
"These salespersons at the supply and marketing cooperative are really looking down on others. Every time they ask about something, it's like how much money they owe her. They all treat her like a boss."
"Their good days are coming to an end. When the supply and marketing cooperatives close down and they are laid off, they will lose their momentum."
Gu Xia said calmly.
"Oh, no. Can this supply and marketing cooperative be closed down?! Can they still be laid off?! Isn't this an iron rice bowl?"
Second sister-in-law Zhang Feng stared in disbelief and asked.
It was like hearing the Arabian Nights.
"Fields have been given to individuals for farming, and individuals have begun to do business. What is impossible?"
As Gu Xia spoke, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart about the changes in the country in the next three to forty years. Looking at it from now on, it is really earth-shaking.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it has created a miracle, it is amazing!
Second sister-in-law Zhang Feng nodded in confusion, feeling that what Gu Xia said made sense, and felt that there was a sense of wisdom emanating from her, as if she not only knew a lot, but also everything she said was right.
Zhang Feng had never seen this feeling from Gu Xia before.
She seemed to have grown up and matured overnight, and she was so well behaved that no one could fault her.
The second sister-in-law suddenly came up with the idea of working with Gu Xia and learning from her.

county seat.
Ye Jialei and Ye Jiaming rode each other very fast. It took them one hour and 10 minutes to reach the county seat. It usually took one and a half hours.
After entering the city, Ye Jialei went straight to the grocery store on Ximenkou Street to find his high school classmate Zhou Guangyao.
It's only 08:30 now, there are only one or two people buying things in the store, and the sales assistants are all idle.
"Hey, Leizi, I haven't seen you for a long time." When Zhou Guangyao saw Ye Jialei, he took the lead in greeting him with a smile and was very enthusiastic.
"I've been busy with farm work recently. I just finished my work today so I have time to come over." Ye Jialei walked up to Zhou Guangyao, took out a cigarette and handed it to him, and asked him if he had time to go out and chat.
"Let's go out and talk." Zhou Guangyao happily took the cigarette, said to the elder sister next to him, and followed Ye Jialei out.
Ye Jiaming gave him a simple greeting and started browsing in the store, looking at the various cooked foods sold there and asking about the prices.
Ye Jiaming first looked at the pig head meat, then sniffed, and then shook his head.
The color is not as good-looking as the one made by the third daughter-in-law, and it smells greasy and has no attractive fragrance.
No need to taste it, he raised his head and promised that it would definitely not be as delicious as the third wife’s cooking!
When asked about the price again, Ye Jiaming's eyes lit up. It was 1 yuan and 3 cents per pound.
It’s 5 cents more expensive than pork.
The more expensive the better.
It shows that their braised food can also be sold at a high price.
If you can buy a pig head for 6 cents per catty and braise it, even if it shrinks when braised, it will yield 8 taels of meat per catty, but if the price goes up, you can still make more than double the profit!
After Ye Jiaming settled the account in his mind, his face suddenly turned into a smile.
"Hey, I'm asking you to buy it or not. If you don't buy it, don't smile so hard at the pork head. It's so weird."
The saleslady was so laughed at by Ye Jiaming that she got goosebumps all over her body and thought he was mentally ill.
"Ahem, then give me two ounces of meat and let me taste it."
Ye Jiaming remembered that Gu Xia had said that he could buy some of other people's meat to try, and also gave him two yuan to buy meat, saying it was a special fund for investigation.
The eldest sister cut him two taels and charged him twenty-five cents.
Ye Jiaming took the oil paper bag, tasted it immediately, and frowned.
Ouch, it’s too greasy, not delicious, tastes bad!
Gu Xia had been holding it in his mouth for the past two days. If it had been before, he would have felt it smelled so good.
"Oh, you eat meat, but you look like you've eaten shit. Are you really out of your mind?"
The eldest sister was stimulated by Ye Jiaming's expression again, and she became even more rude in her words.
She had never seen anyone feel so painful and disgusted with eating meat.
"...Sister, this is what you said about the braised meat you sell that looks like shit." Ye Jiaming quickly shook his head and waved his hands.
"I didn't say that!"
"Hey! Are you here to cause trouble?" The eldest sister slapped the table with her hand, pinched her waist, and glared at Ye Jiaming.
The two salesmen next to me who watched it from beginning to end naturally helped the eldest sister to speak, thinking that Ye Jiaming was the one causing trouble.
When asking about the price, he smiled as if he had picked up money. When he ate, he cried as if he had eaten feces. It was completely the opposite of normal people and definitely not normal.
"Oh, sister, brother, you have misunderstood. I came here to ask about the price and taste it because I plan to braise some pork head meat and sell it when I go back.
To be honest, your braised food quality is really not that good. If you buy from me in the future, people will definitely rush to buy it! "
Ye Jiaming patted his chest and said it with full confidence.
The way the eldest sister and the others looked at him changed, and they knew that he was not crazy, but just daydreaming and bragging.
"Okay, okay, stop bragging, you're going to blow the pig up to the sky. If you finish buying it, go home and braise your pig head meat." The eldest sister waved her hand and drove him out in disgust.
