"Comrade, I want to buy this stamp. How many more do you have here? I want them all!"
Jiang Ning pointed at the red one and said proudly.
The post office staff took a look and said strangely.
"These are old stamps that are several years old and have never been sold. There are two more, and they are here."
Talking.
The two sheets were all red and were brought to Jiang Ning from the counter.
Jiang Ning immediately opened his wallet and was about to pay when Wang Chunxia came over.
She looked around curiously.
"Sister Ning, are you buying stamps? Do you want to write a letter home?"
Jiang Ning looked at the two stamps and then at Wang Chunxia who was standing aside.
She turned her eyes, thought for a moment and then said.
"Sister Chunxia, I don't write a letter, I just think this stamp looks good and I want to buy it for my collection. Do you want to buy one too?"
"……collect?!"
Wang Chunxia is a country girl who doesn't know a few Chinese characters. She doesn't even know how to write letters, and she has never heard of collecting stamps.
She even said so outright.
"Isn't it a waste if I buy these stamps and don't use them again?"
Jiang Ning just smiled lightly and explained unhurriedly.
"Sister Chunxia, look at this stamp. It's red and looks very festive. After you buy it, you can put it in a photo frame. It's just the size of a one-inch photo. It looks great when you put it together with the photo."
Wang Chunxia listened to Jiang Ning's words and took a closer look at the stamp.
Sure enough, it is red and festive, and the characters on it are all ordinary working people, and they look very energetic at first glance.
An ordinary one-inch photo costs a few dollars in a photo studio.
But this stamp only costs eight cents.
This transaction is not a loss either.
Wang Chunxia looked at Jiang Ning's smiling eyes and was moved.
"Okay, I'll buy one too."
Both of them were red, and Jiang Ning and Wang Chunxia both bought one.
Jiang Ning didn't care at all about the millions of yuan in the future, because... there were more in the post office!
For example, the "Monkey Stamps" launched just this year are the first set of stamps with a zodiac theme in history.
For example, the "Capital Scenic Spots" stamps, a set of five, respectively depict the scenery of the Summer Palace, Beihai, Tiananmen, Temple of Heaven, and Hall of Supreme Harmony.
"Capital Places of Interest" stamp
A few years later, these stamps will still be the big names in the stamp industry.
Jiang Ning bought several copies of them all.
Wang Chunxia was dumbfounded by the way she spent money so generously.
Only Jiang Ning herself knew that she had only spent a few dollars, but she had pocketed all the gold and silver.
…
Done.
The two of them walked out of the post office happily, and first went to the farmer's market together.
The people doing business are farmers from nearby villages. Many people wear clothes with ethnic minority characteristics, and they sell products from the mountains.
Jiang Ning bought a lot of things, and the bamboo basket on his body was half full.
The two also spent 15 cents to buy a bamboo tube rice.
Cheap and delicious.
Immediately afterwards, I went to the supply and marketing cooperative.
Although there are many things in the farmers' market, many of the products are only sold in supply and marketing cooperatives.
For example, salt, white sugar, and brown sugar, especially rice, flour, and oil, these daily necessities are still controlled commodities.
It is purchased and sold by the state and purchased by ticket.
While Jiang Ning was queuing up at the supply and marketing cooperative, he saw many big letters hanging outside the door.
For example, the purchase limit of salt is two kilograms per person, and the purchase limit of white sugar and brown sugar is three kilograms per person.
Although there is no purchase limit on wheat flour, there are only a few flour tickets that everyone can get, which means that the purchase limit is reached in another way.
Obviously, these are still scarce items.
Jiang Ning didn't have such worries, just because she had a thick stack of bills in her hand.
Get whatever you want.
She can buy as much as she wants as long as there are no purchase restrictions.
She even had a TV ticket. The supply and marketing cooperative didn't even have a radio, let alone a TV.
When it's Jiang Ning's turn.
She handed over the prepared notes and money together.
"Hello, comrade, I want two kilograms of table salt, three kilograms of white sugar, three kilograms of brown sugar, ten kilograms of rice, twenty kilograms of wheat flour, twenty kilograms of sorghum noodles, and five kilograms of millet."
Hearing Jiang Ning say this in one breath, the salespersons at the cooperative were dumbfounded.
Such a young girl actually wants so many things.
When he saw the notes and money in Jiang Ning's hand again, he swallowed the shock in his throat.
She said slowly, "Wait a moment, I'll get it for you right now."
Soon.
The glass counter was filled with everything Jiang Ning wanted.
She rearranged the bamboo basket and loaded it neatly until it was almost full.
But Jiangning's big purchase is not over yet.
She also bought soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil...
The entire cabinet was filled with products in glass, and even canned peaches and white wine were displayed together.
Jiang Ning pointed to the top white wine and said.
"Comrade, I want five bottles of liquor."
"Okay, wait a moment."
After this sequence, Wang Chunxia on the side was dumbfounded again.
She said in shock, "Sister Ning, why did you buy so many things? Commander Qin and the others eat in the army canteen most of the time. You are alone at home and can't finish all the food."
"Sister Chunxia, there are not many of these things. I don't think they are enough. They will come in handy."
Jiang Ning said with confidence.
She obviously had other plans in mind.
therefore.
Wang Chunxia didn't try to persuade her, but after the salesperson put down the five bottles of liquor, she put them all into her backpack.
"We agreed that I would carry it for you."
"Okay, thank you Sister Chunxia."
Finished buying these.
Jiang Ning continued to look at the fabrics in the supply and marketing cooperative.
After sorting out Qin Jiulie's wardrobe, she discovered that this man had no personal clothes except for military uniforms and military undershirts.
This is not okay.
The good figure of a man with broad shoulders and narrow waist is going to waste.
Jiang Ning thought about making Qin Jiulie some daily clothes, but after looking around, he couldn't choose anything suitable.
Either the texture is not good, or the color is not good-looking.
It doesn't match Qin Jiulie's aura at all.
Jiang Ning thought of the department store and suggested to Wang Chunxia.
"Sister Chunxia, let's go to the department store. I want to buy some nice fabrics."
"Department store?" Wang Chunxia's eyes widened in shock, and she kept waving her hands, "No, no, no, the things there are so valuable, we can't afford them."
Jiang Ning didn't laugh at Wang Chunxia's fuss and her ignorance about department stores.
Instead, he asked gently.
"Sister Chunxia, have you never been to a department store?"
Wang Chunxia blushed in embarrassment and nodded, "Everyone in my village said that department stores are places where rich people go, and ordinary people like us can't afford them."
"Who said that! Anyone who goes to a department store is not a common man! Come on, I will take you to see it today!"
Jiang Ning grabbed Wang Chunxia's hand and strode forward.
