Break through seven zeros with space

Chapter 2 Department Store
Her footsteps were a bit heavy, and she couldn't go out for a long time. She was completely unfamiliar with this place, and she didn't know where to go.

Ye Yuxuan was very conspicuous, with her chestnut hair, the man who came out a little behind her could see her standing on the side of the road at a glance.

Glancing at the bus station with a simple iron plate marked with the name of the station, Ye Yuxuan ignored the gazes cast by the people entering and leaving the station, looked in one direction, and took a step.

The man tightened the military coat on his body, stared at the back of the woman leaving in front of him for a long time, and meditated secretly until he was far away, and then he came back to his senses.

There happened to be a bus coming, the man got on the bus, bought a ticket, sat down in a seat, and waited comfortably for the stop.

The gray streets are asphalt roads, not very big, with two lanes going back and forth, with no gaps in between. Maybe when there are many cars, they will also be divided into three lanes.Thinking of this, Ye Yuxuan shook her head secretly. It had been almost half an hour since she came out of the station. Apart from two buses passing by, she hadn't seen any other vehicles.

Thinking back on the information I had screened out on the train, Ye Yuxuan’s mouth flickered with a faint smile. It seems that there is a lack of supplies these days, and it seems that it is still in the planned economy. How can there be so many motor vehicles on the road? up run.

A few bicycles have been ridden occasionally.Of course, it can't be one of those beautiful and refined bikes of modern times or a powerful mountain bike.

The buildings on both sides are all gray and black rough cement walls, and occasionally a few blue bricks are exposed, which are also missing heads and tails.

Ye Yuxuan walked unhappily, and occasionally glanced at the faded red slogans graffitied on the wall as she passed by, but for the rest of the time, she kept her eyes on the front, sizing up where she walked from the corner of her eye.

There were also people walking by, but Ye Yuxuan's novel attire, exquisite makeup and unique temperament were a bit out of tune with the honest men and women around them wearing old clothes with a few patches on them.

As if she didn't notice the scrutiny of others, Ye Yuxuan walked at a leisurely pace.

After leaving the train station, there was a long stretch of road with empty crop fields on both sides. If there were no other people walking on the road, Ye Yuxuan would have thought that she had chosen the wrong direction.

Compared with the high-rise buildings everywhere in later generations, the streets here are lined with low one-story houses, and occasionally a few five or six-story buildings are particularly abrupt.And this high-rise building is either a school, a hospital, or a department store.

Pingyang City Department Store.

This line of writing was red, and Ye Yuxuan could see it from a distance. When she got closer, she saw people coming in and out of the gate. After thinking about it, she followed in.

When you enter the door, you can see rows of four or five-story wooden shelves placed against the wall. There are things on the shelves. In front of the shelves are salesmen in blue clothes and black trousers. A dozen glass counters are placed along the wall. Just right to separate the salesperson and the shelves behind from the people who come to buy things.

A long thin wire thread was drawn around a nail nailed into the wall, on which hung several wooden signs.

Food Department, Daily Necessities Department, Alcohol and Tobacco Department, Hardware Department, Knitting Department.

The decoration inside is average, and it can even be said to be old. There are no dazzling product advertisements, and the products are not complete.

Ye Yuxuan was very surprised to see all this, it was something she had never seen before.

Ye Yuxuan has no money?
Of course she is rich, and the property left to her after her parents died can be used for her to squander for more than ten lifetimes.

But after glancing at the colorful banknotes and coupons in the hands of men and women shopping at the counter, she didn't think the red bills in her bag could be used, or those banknotes that could be overdrafted in major banks could be used. Brush on.

Ye Yuxuan didn't talk about her appearance, but her clothes didn't look like ordinary people. Perhaps she should be a little congratulated for her well-dressed clothes? !

Because as long as someone stared at him for a long time, she would glance away coldly, and the other party, no matter whether it was a man or a woman, would quickly look back.

Also because of her clothes, when she asked, the salesperson treated her differently from others.

"Comrade, how is this mandarin duck silk sold?" The cold voice had a hint of sweetness, with a slightly careless tone.

Ye Yuxuan felt a little uncomfortable when the people who were new to this place called people like this, because in later generations, these two words have other meanings.

The salesperson is a 24-year-old woman. The previous person came to ask, but she was lazy and ignored her. When it was Ye Yuxuan's turn, she immediately smiled and said, "This mandarin duck silk quilt is a high-end product, and I just bought it today. As for the goods, they are only available in Shanghai, and we only have five in Pingyang City..."

Perhaps it was because she saw that Ye Yuxuan was well dressed, and the salesperson intended to show off to her, and Ye Yuxuan also listened with a smile, without the slightest bit of impatience or the thought of interrupting.

"This silk quilt costs 120 yuan and 52 industrial coupons."

She fell in love with the silk quilt as soon as it arrived, but she didn't have the money to buy it. The 120 yuan was her salary for more than four months. Needless to say, the industrial certificate was 30 yuan for an industrial certificate. The monthly salary is only 28 yuan and [-] cents, and there is no share for industrial vouchers.

If you want an industrial voucher, you have to find someone to exchange for it, but her salary is low. Although my husband has a monthly salary of 42 yuan, I can still have an industrial voucher, but I have to support two children and my parents-in-law. Where? If you are willing to pay such a high price for a silk quilt, you can only enjoy it.

Ye Yuxuan was curious about what the industrial coupons the salesperson was talking about, but she didn't miss the gasps behind her.

Smiling and thanking the salesperson calmly, Ye Yuxuan went to other counters. Whenever someone was buying something, she would slow down and take a look. After walking around, she probably knew the situation before going upstairs.

Is it really a planned economy?Ye Yuxuan lowered her eyes to hide the astonishment in her eyes, thinking about this era, it's normal.Looking up again, his face was calm, without any change.

In addition to sauces, vinegar, tea and other condiments on the first floor, there are dim sum and candy counters, tobacco and wine counters, hardware counters and daily necessities counters.Ye Yuxuan also saw plastic head flowers and some brightly colored hair ropes in the daily necessities counter.

One is in the corner, behind a pillar, on a wooden counter, which sells some feminine products, sanitary napkins, etc. If Ye Yuxuan hadn't heard two women talking to the salesperson in a low voice, I really don't know the difference Yubie's wooden cabinets with glass counters sell feminine hygiene products.

Although she glanced hastily, Ye Yuxuan didn't miss the various tickets needed to buy various things.
