Chapter 53
Xie Yan thought that she might not have a chance to go to the street for a short time, so she walked around, but in fact there were only two streets, there were grocery stores, clothing stores, grain stores and other small shops.

It may be that the recent years have not been as serious as the previous years, and QH County is also known as one of the top ten poor counties in the country, but it is not as bad as other places.

Xie Yan didn't go into these stores, but went directly to the supply and marketing cooperative not far away.

After arriving at the supply and marketing cooperative, it was quite novel.

The clerks of the supply and marketing cooperative were similar to the ones in the legends, they didn't greet at all, one was knitting a sweater while sitting on a stool, and the other was putting on exaggerated makeup in front of the mirror.

The first time Xie Yan entered, he was scrutinized by the two from head to toe, and immediately gave up.

She was wearing homemade sackcloth that only rural women would wear, and there was an obvious hole in the cloth shoes under her feet, which didn't seem to fit her feet very well, they were too big, and her hair was cut short.

Like this kind of customers, the supply and marketing cooperatives see many customers every day.

They are poor and can't afford it, so the clerk doesn't want to waste energy trying to strike up a conversation.

However, what Xie Yan was wearing today was indeed not very good, they were all Ye Taohua's old clothes and shoes, you know, what Ye Taohua was wearing was even more ragged.

Xie Yan will not care about what these people think or think, that would be a real waste of energy!

Walking to the counter where I needed to buy something, I looked up and down:
"Hello, how do you sell towels?"

The woman who was putting on makeup raised her eyes:

"One yuan and twenty cents, don't vote one yuan and eighty cents."

There are a few words in the eyes: Can you afford it?

Indeed, one yuan and eight is really not a small amount in this era. The village works every day, and a person only has 0 centimeters, which is an income of 4 cents.

I have to get rid of the daily living expenses, how much can I have left?

A towel is really not cheap.

But no matter how expensive, towels are a must have long been on the list.

"Where's the toothbrush?" He continued to ask.

The woman rolled her eyes even more:

"Six cents for a toothbrush, no ticket."

Ah.

Xie Yan glanced at the woman behind the counter, it didn't matter, but it made that woman very excited.

"Four towels, three toothbrushes, three cups, one enamel basin, two boxes of Harry's oil, um, another bottle of black ink, two homework books, no ticket, just count it as cash!"

The woman doesn't dare to roll her eyes anymore, after writing down the things Xie Yan wanted, she went to the side to pick up the goods, and after packing them:
"Hello comrade, the total is 34 yuan and 2 cents."

Xie Yan paid the money, and didn't take away the ten yuan that Ye Taohua gave her before, but used the only 40 yuan she had left from Beicheng!

Well, now only five yuan and eighty cents are left!
What can five yuan and eight buy in the future?

sweat.
With the leftover money in his pocket, he left the supply and marketing cooperative with his things, and found a butcher stall on the corner of the street.

Meat!

Xie Yan has never been a vegetarian. When he sees meat, he is still the kind who will not eat meat for several days:
"Uncle, how do you sell this meat?" asked.

The butcher is shirtless, with beads of sweat dripping from his body:

"Little comrade, the price of meat is the national uniform price, sixty-eight cents, and eighty-two cents if you don't have a ticket, how about some?"

Xie Yan took a closer look, and found that the leftover pork was not a very good one, and for a while, he didn't have much appetite.

"Uncle, why are you selling pig intestines? And these bones next to it?"

The uncle glanced:
"These things, little comrade, you don't need tickets if you want them, and I'll give you all five yuan."

"Row!"

Five yuan is five yuan, isn't there still fifty cents left?

enough!

What's more, the pig's large intestine weighs seven or eight catties, and the pig's bones weigh at least five or six catties, so it's a good deal no matter what!

 Has the baby urged the hero so early?

  Hahaha!
  Don't worry, don't worry, Yan Yan's career has just begun!
