"Damn, I've been fooled," Tang Mingxuan cursed in his heart after savoring the taste.

Now he could clearly see the scene in the conference room. Except for the director of the second workshop, almost everyone supported Factory Director Zhao.

It was clear that this was a trap set by the factory director named Zhao. Maybe he had already contacted others last night, otherwise he would not have supported him one-sidedly.

After all, Tang Mingxuan was someone who had been fighting with Director Zhao for a long time. He knew that the matter could not be done, so he agreed to Director Zhao's proposal. This is considered affordable enough to put down!

At this time, Jiang Yan, who was giving all the factory leaders a headache, was inside the supply and marketing cooperative in the factory, looking at the things inside in confusion.

It is said that the Northeast is rich in products, and Jiang Yanke finally saw it today.

For things like radios, the supply and marketing cooperative here cannot compare with those in Sijiu City, but the non-staple food here is extremely rich.

It is said that there are three treasures in the Northeast, ginseng, mink, ulak grass. Jiang Yan did not see ulak grass in the supply and marketing cooperative, but he did see a few of the mink and ginseng.

"Comrade, how do you sell this ginseng?" Jiang Yan asked, pointing to the ginseng on the counter.

"This is authentic Changbai Mountain ginseng. The dried ginseng is about 40 grams in total. It costs one hundred and twenty yuan, plus twenty kilograms of food stamps."

Ginseng in Northeast China is divided into two types: wild ginseng and understory ginseng.

It takes a long time for understory ginseng to grow to 50 grams. Some ginseng grows to more than 20 years old and still only has less than 50 grams. It is even rarer to find 50 grams of pure wild ginseng. As the saying goes, seven taels is a ginseng and eight taels is a treasure. This is the calculation according to the old scale, where one catty is sixteen taels. This shows how difficult it is to grow pure wild ginseng to 50 grams.

With just these forty grams of wild ginseng, he is estimated to be around twenty years old.

"How many grams does the smaller one weigh?" Jiang Yan pointed to the one next to him and asked.

At this time, the waiter said in an impatient tone: "This one is smaller than that one, about 30 grams. Do you want to buy it? If you want to buy it, hurry up."

In this era, being a salesperson in a supply and marketing cooperative was the most awesome profession in the world, bar none. Income comes second. After all, the difference in mainstream wages back then was no more than 50 yuan. Everyone was poor. There were no rich people, rich people, or second-generation rich people to back them up. They were all the same working people. Don’t look down on anyone. As long as you are an employee of a state-owned enterprise, it is considered a good job, but being a salesperson in a supply and marketing cooperative is particularly good.

Because there is no other place to buy things, you have to buy them from the salesperson. As for whether the things given to you are good or bad, it all depends on the salesperson's mood. For example, if you buy pork belly in the same way, can it be the same if the meat is nice and fat and lean, or the meat is all white or all lean? After all, if the mother in the cafeteria shakes her hands, she will miss a few bites of meat dishes.

This is the small but huge right of the salesperson.

Don't be dissatisfied, don't be picky, you like to buy. If you don't buy, there are still many people waiting in line behind you. If you complain, let alone the salesperson who doesn't give you a good look, the people behind you must "speak up for the salesperson." I have to make you look disgraced.

The expressions of salespersons in this era are all cold. She doesn't have to please anyone at all, others have to please her.

On the contrary, the people who bought things smiled all over their faces, handed over the money and tickets politely, and even said some compliments if they were clever.

Seeing that the waiter was a little unhappy, Jiang Yan quickly said, "Sister, please bring me both of these. I want both."

Hearing Jiang Yan call her sister, the waiter in his forties, who was originally a little angry, looked much better and no longer looked stinky.

Appearance is justice, no matter men or women, it is the same.

After paying for the two ginsengs, Jiang Yan looked at the tiger bones and tiger penis placed there. According to Jiang Yan's opinion, this should be the spine of the tiger. This tiger penis is also an adult tiger, and they are both good things. ah!

Jiang Yan's eyes lit up when he saw them.

Jiang Yan had gotten a lot of tiger bones in SL before, but they were all turned into medicinal wine by Jiang Yan and hidden in the basement of his yard. Who can have too much of this good thing?

In this era, there is no such thing as protecting Siberian tigers. From time to time, you can still hear the saying that tigers harm people. If you kill a lot of tigers, you will not only not be punished, but will receive certain rewards from the state.

"Sister, please buy me those tiger bones and some tiger whips."

Hearing that Jiang Yan wanted to buy tiger whip, the waiter looked at Jiang Yan with a strange look, which made Jiang Yan extremely uncomfortable.

"Young man, I see you are not old. Why did you buy this thing? If you are really sick, eating is not the solution. Sister, I know an old Chinese doctor who is very famous in that field. Otherwise, I will give you the address. You, you go and take a look."

"Don't worry, sister, I'm not a big talker. I will definitely keep your secrets secret. Chinese medicine doctors also have a good reputation and will keep clients confidential. It's not a good thing to hide your illness and avoid medical treatment."

Hearing what the waiter said, Jiang Yan was a little puzzled, what about this and that! How could she tell that she was in trouble?

So Jiang Yan quickly explained: "Sister, I bought it for relatives and friends, not for myself."

After hearing Jiang Yan's explanation, the waiter had an expression that said "I don't believe you."

Under the weird look from the waiter, Jiang Yan bought some venison jerky and beef jerky from the supply and marketing cooperative, and left the supply and marketing cooperative in the same embarrassment.

To be honest, Jiang Yan was greedy for many things in this supply and marketing cooperative. It wasn't that he couldn't afford it, and it wasn't that he didn't want to sell them.

The key is that this supply and marketing cooperative is within the factory. If he buys so many things but cannot take them out, others will definitely doubt Jiang Yan.

You really can't treat someone else as a fool.

Jiang Yan, who returned to his room, was happily sorting out the things he had just bought.

I didn't look carefully just now. The two ginseng I bought were dried ginseng. Judging from the appearance, they were well preserved.

"Dong dong dong." There was a knock on the door.

When Jiang Yan heard the knock on the door, he quickly put down the things in his hands and opened the door to his room.

"Jiang Gong, you are out for a walk." Guo Jianjun came in and asked after seeing the things on his table.

"Well! Isn't this okay? I just walked around the factory and did some exercise. Didn't you say that we should combine work and rest? When I came back, I happened to pass by the supply and marketing cooperative in our factory, so I bought some of our A specialty of Northeast China. Give it as a gift to your relatives and friends when you return home.”

"You really should buy some, Mr. Jiang. Our supply and marketing cooperative doesn't have all the stuff. When Dong is resting, I'll take you to Bingcheng to buy. There's a lot of stuff there."

While Guo Jianjun was talking, he looked at the things on Jiang Yan's table, especially the two opened ginseng. He was stunned. This is called buying something. He knew that these two ginseng had been stored in the supply and marketing cooperative for almost a year. The price is surprisingly high. For these two gadgets, I guess I might not be able to afford them with a year's salary.
