She took out a one-dollar note and handed it to Yu Xiaoting, "Xiaoting, take this dollar."
Yu Xiaoting was not polite, took the money and said: "I'll give you 40 cents..."
"There's no need to look for it. The four cents will be paid to you as hard work." Shen Xiaolin waved her hand.
She knew that she shouldn't be poor and generous. She had no money in the first place, so she shouldn't have given Yu Xiaoting 40 cents for her hard work, but Yu Xiaoting had done her a great favor and she couldn't deny her any benefit.
"How can this be done?" Yu Xiaoting was stunned for a moment and immediately shook her head, "How can I ask for your hard work?" After saying that, she took out a stack of cents from her trouser bag and counted four cents and handed them to Shen Xiaolin.
Her money was also a subsidy from the street office.
At this time, the largest denomination of RMB is ten yuan, and the smallest denomination is one cent.
In modern times, no one would pick up a penny if it fell on the ground, because it could not buy anything. But at this time, one penny was a commonly used currency, because one penny could also buy things.
One cent can buy a pencil or a piece of fruit cereal, and envelopes are also one cent each.
When the subdistrict office gave out subsidies, they thoughtfully gave a few notes of all denominations, ranging from ten yuan to one cent, so that the educated youth could buy things after receiving the money.
"There's nothing I can't do. If it weren't for you, I would have spent two yuan to buy these two kilograms of oranges on the black market based on the fruit vendor's one yuan price. You helped me save a lot of money, and you deserve it. "
Shen Xiaolin did not take the money, but pushed the forty cents back.
"What do I deserve? We are friends. Shouldn't friends help each other? If I take your money, why should I be called a friend?" Yu Xiaoting firmly refused and stuffed the 40 cents into Shen Xiaolin's pocket.
Afraid that Shen Xiaolin would take out the 40 cents and return it to her if she still refused to accept it, she said: "If you regard me as a friend, then accept my free help, otherwise I will not be friends with you."
She said this, and Shen Xiaolin could only nod.
"Xiaoting, thank you, I will treat you as my most precious good friend." Shen Xiaolin showed a touched expression and reached out to take Yu Xiaoting's hand and hold it.
Yu Xiaoting smiled, "Let's go shopping. We will go to the countryside in two days. There are a lot of things to buy. We can't finish them in one day. Let's buy more today and buy the leftovers tomorrow. Try to finish them tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." Specially pack everything you need to take with you.”
"Okay. You have a great idea! You are really thoughtful... Let's go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some things that are not available in the supply and marketing cooperative, and then go to the department store to buy them."
Shen Xiaolin held Yu Xiaoting's hand and smiled, walking towards the south. There was a supply and marketing cooperative not far to the south.
There are a lot of things to buy when going to the countryside. Some things are not available in supply and marketing cooperatives and are only available in department stores, so you have to go to department stores to buy them.
Department stores are much larger than supply and marketing cooperatives, and have many more things. They are relatively complete, but there are some things that are not available in department stores and are only available in supply and marketing cooperatives.
Moreover, things in department stores are always more expensive than those in supply and marketing cooperatives, so in order to save money, everyone is accustomed to going to the supply and marketing cooperatives first to buy things, and then go to department stores to buy things that are not available in the supply and marketing cooperatives.
People at this time are generally poor, and they will try their best to save a penny if they can.
Yu Xiaoting followed Shen Xiaolin to the supply and marketing cooperative. After looking around the supply and marketing cooperative and finding what she wanted to buy, she took out her tickets and started buying. It took the two of them half an hour to finish.
"There are only two missing items. I have everything I want to buy. I just need to go to the department store to buy the two missing items. I won't have to go out to buy anything again tomorrow."
Yu Xiaoting clicked on the things she bought and raised the corners of her lips.
There are so many things. In fact, there are all these things in the space, some are brand new and some are old.
The brand new ones were bought by myself in Hyundai, and the old ones were scrounged from home.
She had originally wanted to take them out directly from the space and take them to the countryside for use, but she thought of getting new ones. The new ones were all made in modern times, and their styles were somewhat different from those of this era. You could tell at a glance. , will arouse suspicion.
If you take the old ones, Shen Xiaolin and the educated youth who will go to the countryside together will definitely ask why everyone else is new and only you are the old ones. If you say you got them from home, others will be surprised.
It’s okay to take one or two things from home, but take them all from home, and you don’t need them at home.
So she finally decided to buy new ones in order not to arouse suspicion. Anyway, with the thirty yuan subsidy from the supply and marketing cooperative, she didn't have to pay out of her own pocket.
"Yeah, but I have bought a lot of things now, and I can't take them back after I buy them. I think we should move these things home first, and then go to the department store to buy bad things." Shen Xiaolin said.
"Okay." Yu Xiaoting nodded in agreement, and she and Shen Xiaolin left the supply and marketing cooperative with a lot of things.
Their homes are in different directions, so they have to say goodbye after leaving the supply and marketing cooperative.
The two agreed to go home and put down their things, then meet up to go shopping in the department store.
"Let's meet in the triangular garden at the south gate in an hour." Yu Xiaoting said to Shen Xiaolin.
The two of them had just discussed making an appointment to meet at a place instead of calling each other at each other's homes, so that they could travel less.
"Okay." Shen Xiaolin nodded.
The two said goodbye and separated. Yu Xiaoting did not go home. Instead, she walked for a while and saw a remote and uninhabited place. She ran there and entered the space.
Her house was empty, there was nothing there, so there was no need to go back and put things there, just put them in the villa in the space.
Entering the villa in the space, Yu Xiaoting felt a little tired. After putting down a lot of things, she took out a bottle of ice Coke from the refrigerator and lay on the sofa to drink it. She also took out a chicken leg to eat.
How cool!
The feeling of eating braised chicken legs while drinking ice coke is so wonderful and refreshing!
Yu Xiaoting also turned on the TV and watched a Korean drama for nearly an hour. After drinking and eating the iced Coke and braised chicken drumsticks, she stood up from the sofa and turned off the TV.
We have to go to the Triangle Garden to meet up with Shen Xiaolin.
Yu Xiaoting left the space and walked a few minutes to the Triangle Garden. The Triangle Garden said that the garden is actually a triangular flower bed.
Shen Xiaolin hadn't come yet, but Yu Xiaoting saw Shen Xiaolin's figure after waiting for two minutes, and Shen Xiaolin came.
As soon as Shen Xiaolin saw Yu Xiaoting, she thanked her and told her that her parents and eldest brother had agreed upon the oranges she helped buy. Her future sister-in-law happened to be at her house and she immediately ate the oranges and praised them for being delicious. She was very happy. , she praised her together with her parents and eldest brother, but they would never praise her.
Yu Xiaoting smiled and sighed in her heart. She is such a silly girl. What's the point of being happy about being praised by those trash people in her family?
Fortunately, she was going to the countryside soon and was going to get rid of the garbage people in her family.
The two went to the department store together, walked around the department store, and bought what they wanted to buy.
The two of them discussed that they would not go out to meet each other tomorrow, and would stay at home to pack their luggage. They would meet up the day after tomorrow and go play together. They would leave for the countryside the day after tomorrow, and there would be no chance to play in this place in the future. They wanted to have a good day the day after tomorrow.
After separating from Shen Xiaolin, Yu Xiaoting found a remote place where no one was and entered the space, using her mind to pack all the things she bought today.
She previously discovered that in space, she could control everything in the space with her thoughts, which naturally included the things she bought in supply and marketing cooperatives and department stores today.
After packing, Yu Xiaoting wanted to go to the black market to do business, but seeing that it was getting late and almost evening, she was worried that there would be no customers in the black market, so she planned to go there tomorrow morning.
