Gu Shichu looked at his torn top with some annoyance, glared at Ji Mingtao, and said, "You tore my clothes, and these are the only three thin clothes I have left! It's fine now, I There are only two tops to wear. I asked you to move more gently, but you are still so fierce!"
Ji Mingtao looked at the shirt that he accidentally tore last night with a warm face, touched his straight nose, and said with a guilty conscience: "I will compensate you."
"Then what should I wear now? I can't wear yours, right?" Gu Shichu wrapped his body in a quilt and glared at him.
Ji Mingtao found his needlework from the old and worn-out box beside the bed, and quickly glanced at Gu Shichu on the bed, knowing that he was in the wrong: "Then I'll sew it for you before putting it on."
After saying that, he consciously picked up Gu Shichu's torn jacket, sat on the chair and lowered his head to sew.
When Gu Shichu saw him looking so virtuous, like a little wife sewing clothes for her husband obediently, he couldn't help but laugh in his heart, and the boredom of the torn clothes disappeared.
Fortunately, the top was only torn and only needed to be sewn up, so it didn't take long for Ji Mingtao to mend it. However, the few seams sewn on it were as ugly as earthworms. Obviously, the dress was ruined.
Ji Mingtao became more and more guilty after seeing it. Although his face was still expressionless, he promised again: "I will buy a few pieces and come back to compensate you."
Gu Shichu took the clothes and put them on, rolled his eyes, and said, "Then I won't be polite to you. I don't have cloth tickets, and I can't buy them if I have money. If you buy them back, I will give you money, and you will give me money." I’ll just issue the cloth ticket.”
After hearing this, Ji Mingtao took out a few more bills from the cabinet and handed them to Gu Shichu: "Here you go."
Gu Shichu took it and saw that there were meat tickets, oil tickets, cloth tickets, and even a radio ticket. She was a little surprised and asked, "Why do you have so many tickets? Don't you use them?"
Ji Mingtao looked at her with dark and clear eyes and said nonchalantly: "It's earned, it's legal."
Gu Shichu took the cloth ticket and returned the other tickets to him, saying, "Then I'll just take the cloth ticket. I'll buy the clothes myself. You don't have to buy them for me. You can keep the other tickets yourself." I do not need."
Ji Mingtao looked at her steadily and said, "I still have the ones for you."
"No need, no reward for no work." Gu Shichu firmly pushed the ticket into his hand and gave it back to him. She was not short of food and clothing, and she didn't want to take more of Ji Mingtao's things.
Seeing that she was very determined, Ji Mingtao had no choice but to take the ticket back.
"Oh, by the way, tomorrow is the market day in the city. I have to go there and buy clothes just in time. I won't come to your place." Gu Shichu thought of this and said to Ji Mingtao.
Ji Mingtao thought for a while and nodded: "I also have something to do."
After Gu Shichu returned to his home, he planned to take stock of the supplies he would bring to the city to exchange for things tomorrow. She had a lot of things in her half-life space, including all kinds of food and prey. Unfortunately, in this era, she could not use them as she wished. Even the food had to be eaten secretly by myself without letting anyone know.
As for those precious antique jewelry, they cannot be taken out. A small amount of gold and silver can be exchanged for money on the black market. However, she can't even find the black market now. The gold and silver will naturally be useless for the time being. If she finds it tomorrow If you go to the black market, you can exchange some money depending on the situation.
There are also fabrics. Gu Shichu’s half-life space was filled with all kinds of precious fabrics that she had collected in the previous world, such as silk and satin. If they were not precious, she would not collect them. How did she know that she suddenly Will it last until the 1970s when supplies were extremely scarce?
It made her dare not wear clothes made of fabrics that looked very valuable at first glance, and the ready-made clothes she collected were incompatible with the 1970s, and she was even less likely to wear them.
So this is the reason why she has traveled here for almost a year and still has nothing to wear. She has to find a way to exchange cloth tickets to buy clothes or fabrics in the city.
In order not to arouse suspicion, she had to find something suitable and exchange it for other supplies on the black market.
Gu Shichu found a pheasant's nest in the mountain forest of the companion space, found several nests of pheasant eggs, and went to the river to catch four or five fish, planning to take them to the market tomorrow to see what he could exchange for.
Early the next morning, she walked to the city with the people going to the market in the village.
Zhoujiacun is more than an hour away from the county seat. There is no public transportation on this road, so everyone can only walk there by themselves. Fortunately, Gu Shichu took good care of his health early and practiced martial arts, so walking this distance is not tiring. .
Other villagers who went to the market also brought their own things to exchange for material goods. They were exchanged, not sold. Doing business these days is capitalism. Who would dare to do it without fear of death?
Therefore, everyone resumed the ancient practice of exchanging things for things, which was not so sensitive, but in fact it also involved a small amount of money, but everyone tacitly understood it and did not say it out loud.
Gu Shichu took a look at the things other villagers brought, and sure enough, most of them were eggs from his own chickens, as well as some mountain products such as dried fungus and dried mushrooms found in the mountains.
The educated youth have nothing, they are empty-handed, and they don’t know how to bring anything to go to the market.
Gu Shichu noticed that there were several familiar educated youths this time. They probably had just arrived and had not yet been overwhelmed by reality, so they chatted a lot along the way.
"Wow, these fish are so fat. Did you catch them yourself?" A young female educated youth with two pigtails asked in surprise when she saw the fish in Gu Shichu's bucket.
"Yes, I'm going to take it and see if I can exchange it for something." Gu Shichu replied with a smile, "Are you a newly arrived educated youth? What's your name?"
"My name is Zhang Weihong, from Qingcheng." The female educated youth replied with a red face. She was still looking at Gu Shichu's fish and said with some regret, "If I had known that you had fish, I would have brought something to follow If you exchange two, it will save you the trouble of traveling all the way to the county town to sell them. Alas, I haven't eaten meat in a long time."
"If you want it, I'll go catch it in the river in a few days, and I'll tell you then." Gu Shichu said nonchalantly. There were many fish in the river in her companion space, and they were fat and big. Gu Shichu took them The ones that came out were all deliberately small. Otherwise, if the big ones were caught, people would be frightened to death and make people think that the fish have become spirits.
"Okay, it's settled!" Zhang Weihong said happily. She saw that her family's conditions were relatively good and her family loved her, so she ordered Gu Shichu's fish without hesitation.
Gu Shichu looked at her impatient expression, as if he saw a big fat fish waiting to be slaughtered. Her eyes immediately lit up, she stared at Zhang Weihong, lowered her voice and said, "I can also catch pheasants, hares and the like, if you want ?"
Zhang Weihong was also excited and immediately replied: "Yes! Do you want money or tickets?"
