Chapter 35 Shopping

Grandpa's house is a unit with three bedrooms and one living room, which is very simple and warm.The rooms of Ji Zhuan's family have already been prepared for them, especially Ji Zhuan's room. When they knew that he was coming, the two elders had already bought all kinds of toy cars, toy planes, deformed eggs and other things they thought the children would like.

Ji Yu has long passed the age of playing with toys, so he deliberately pretended to be surprised, and said bouncingly: "Wow, it's great, there are so many toys, thank you grandpa and grandma, I like it so much!"

Then Ji Zhuan played with his grandpa and grandma all night with toys, and Li Shulan and Ji Jianguo made dinner.

When taking a bath and going to bed at night, Li Shulan touched Ji Yu's little head and said, "Yuanyuan, good job."

The next day Li Run took Ji Zhuan's family to the Friendship Store.He has some foreign exchange certificates, but he has never used them. This time, for the sake of his grandson, the two elders brought all the foreign exchange certificates with them.

The Friendship Store is a store specially opened for foreign guests, because the domestic market prohibits the circulation of foreign currency in the country. In order to facilitate foreign guests to purchase items and pay expenses, the National Bank issued foreign exchange certificates, whose value is equivalent to domestic RMB.

But because the quantity is small, and you can buy things that cannot be bought in China at the Friendship Store, the exchange rate on the black market has reached the level of 1:1.8.

Ji Yu saw the commonly used items in the supermarket at the Friendship Store.Coca-Cola, potato chips, leather shoes, wine, Kodak cameras, electronic watches, etc. These things will quickly become popular in the market in a year or two, but now they can only be bought in the Friendship Store.

The salesperson of the Friendship Store is very enthusiastic, wearing a red professional attire, laughing before saying a word, customers are not angry even if they don’t buy it, and enthusiastically introduce the origin of these products one by one.

Li Run asked Ji Yu: "What does Yuanyuan like?"

Ji Yu shook his head: "I don't want anything."

"Jianguo, Shulan, what about you? Just say what you want."

"Dad, we don't need it, just take a look." Ji Jianguo said.

He mainly looks at the salesperson.Of course, it's not because of his beauty, but because of the salesperson's service attitude, which makes him feel fresh.Not only the supply and marketing cooperative in the town, but he had never seen such a polite salesperson in the department store in the city.It is undeniable that this put him in a good mood, and he even felt sorry for not buying something.

Because everyone felt that there was nothing necessary, in the end Li Run only bought a few bottles of American soda: Coca-Cola.

Leaving the Friendship Store, Li Run asked Ji Yu: "Let's go to the Children's Park to play next, Yuanyuan?"

They completely regarded Ji Lian as an ordinary ten-year-old child, and had already made plans for him to play.

Although Ji Yu was very moved, he was really not interested in children's parks, so he shook his head and said, "Grandpa, I'm going to the hardware and electronics market to buy something."

"What are you doing at the hardware market?"

"Buy accessories for the radio." Ji Jianguo said with a smile: "Yuanyuan broke the radio at home, and now I need to buy new accessories to repair it."

So the family took the bus to the Pubai Department Store not far away.The department store in Pubai City is much larger than that in Laijiang City, with a total of six floors, and each floor sells a kind of goods.Clothes, jewelry, bags, etc., everything.The fourth floor of the mid-term is dedicated to hardware and electronics, and there are all kinds of hardware and electronics that Ji Chen has never seen before.Many things have been eliminated in the future, and Ji Chen only recognized their functions by relying on Ji Jianguo's explanation.

Ji Jianguo knew that Ji Zhuan had been taught by an uncle on the farm, and he seemed to be quite good at electronics, so he asked him, "Yuanyuan, do you know what accessories we are going to buy?"

"Let me take a look." Ji Yu looked at the counter on tiptoe, pointing out the required components one by one: "Uncle, please help me get the vr winding inductor and cb variable capacitor, please take the 270p one. There are 3000pf capacitor c1, 2ap detector diode, high-impedance earphones, speakers..."

Counting his fingers and thinking about it, that's right, the accessories for the radio are complete, Ji Yu took out his wallet: "That's all, uncle, please help me put it together, how much is it?"

The total cost of these accessories was less than two yuan. Ji Yi bought all the other spare parts that he thought he needed. He scanned the counters on the whole floor and bought a lot of them until all the red envelopes from the lucky money were spent. until.Ji Jianguo also asked him: "Yuanyuan, is there anything else you want?"

They were willing to let Ji Chen spend so much money because of the metal detector, let them know that their son has talent in this area, so they were willing to let him make trouble.Otherwise, ordinary parents would be reluctant to let their children spend so much money and confiscate it all as tuition fees.

The components are not big, but they are heavy. Ji rafter bought a lot, and the salesperson in the mall packed the boxes for Ji rafter, and it was actually full of a large box.Ji Yu was a little confused, he just bought it, he didn't expect to buy so much without knowing it, now it's impossible to return it, and he doesn't know how to get it back.

Not far from Pubai Department Store, there is a publishing house building.It is said to be a building, but in fact it is not a three-story building.However, this Fenghua Publishing House is the largest publishing house in Pubai City. The books it publishes have sales channels all over the country, and it has also opened three magazines and two newspapers, and the response has been very good.

Song Xuecheng wore a new suit and submitted the manuscript in person.He had previously published a book at Fenghua Publishing House, but all the manuscripts he wrote were rejected, so he came here to submit the manuscript in person this time.Now in front of him, they are always embarrassed to reject the manuscript, right?

Editor Xu of Fenghua Publishing House received him, and after spending half an hour reading his manuscript, he smiled and said politely: "Mr. have a look?"

Song Xuecheng stared: "Where is it not suitable? My previous book "White Flowers on Cangshan Mountain" was published by your publishing house. Now this book is obviously in the same style, so why is it not suitable? Forget it, I haven't seen you, you You're new here, ask Editor Mo to come over."

"..." Editor Xu's face darkened.

Song Xuecheng was well-known among educated youths in his early years because of the manuscripts he wrote at that time.At that time, the entertainment life was poor, and there were no books to read in the countryside. Whatever young people scribbled in private could be sought after, and then copied each other one after another.In fact, in terms of literary value, most of these books are not very good. They are either groaning for no reason, or pornography of misbehavior.Later, the publishing house selected a batch of well-known manuscripts to publish, and the sales volume was good. Many educated youths who returned to the city were coaxed to buy their feelings, but they were also scolded by the elders in the literary world.Because these books are really not literature.

Song Xuecheng's writing style is actually not bad. When he writes about life in the countryside, he has a sense of reality, but he has a deep disdain for the peasants between the lines. When he writes about the city, he is particularly divorced from reality. Fictitious, all with a strong feeling of licking and kneeling.

Words are like a person, just by looking at the content, Editor Mo knows the character of the person in front of him.His character is not good, and his writing is prone to controversy. Which publishing house is willing to publish this kind of book?

"I'll just say it straight, Mr. Song. In your novel, you describe the peasants as too vulgar and ignorant, which is likely to cause displeasure to the peasant brothers. But here, you write them as high-ranking officials. Oh, the director's daughter likes it." The protagonist, the director said, transfer the protagonist to be the section chief?" Editor Xu threw the manuscript to him and accused: "Look, are you writing about an official who serves the people? It is simply a *feudal official ..."

Editor Xu's mouth is much sharper than Song Xuecheng's pen. He not only severely disparages his novels, but also raises his class position. It seems that publishing his novels will cause social stability problems, and Song Xuecheng will be ashamed.

Walking out of Fenghua Publishing House, Song Xuecheng spat hard at the gate of the publishing house: "Hey, you look down on me now, and when I get rich in the future, I won't give you any manuscripts I want!"

Then he turned his head and saw Ji Yu's family.

Li Run borrowed the office phone number from the shopping mall to inform Xiao Xu to come pick him up, and the family went downstairs with their suitcases to wait.The box wasn't heavy, but it was quite big. Ji Jianguo couldn't move it stably by himself, so Li Run and Ji Zhuan helped together.There is no elevator in the shopping mall, and the grandparents and grandchildren could only slowly carry the first and first floors down. Tired but not tired, it was quite embarrassing.

Song Xuecheng smiled: "Heh, a countryman."

There are always such people in the world who feel happy when they see others are not good.Song Xuecheng is obviously this type.

The cardboard box for the assembly parts was an old cardboard box with the words quilt printed on it, and some mechanical black oil was stained on it. Ji Jianguo carried this thing, and it looked like a countryman who went to the city and was poor.Although they are all dressed well, country folks, whoever comes to the city, come wearing the best clothes of the whole family, and the poor are poor, and the quilts they buy are all old.

Song Xuecheng left in no hurry, he wanted to see what the gang of countrymen would do next.

I'm afraid they haven't even taken a bus before?

A bus was coming, but these farmers didn't get on the bus. They pointed at the bus and shook their heads, as if they were discussing something.

how?Scared?Surprised?Never sat down?

Another car drove up and stopped in front of several people.Song Xuecheng heard the country old man ask: "Look, Yuanyuan, what is this?"

The annoying little ghost shouted in surprise, "Grandpa, it's a car!"

"Heh!" Song Xuecheng sneered even more.

Unknowing country people.

That is not an ordinary car, it is the most famous Hongqi brand car in China, which can only be used by government units, not even in smaller prefecture-level cities...

"Come on, Yuanyuan, let's take a car!"

The country old man said, picking up the annoying child.Then the Hongqi car opened, and a young driver ran out, opened the door respectfully, and invited the group of countrymen to get on the car.

Song Xuecheng: "...?!!
