Chapter 91 What is true?

The salesperson quickly brought the items over and said, "The cream we have here is a brand from Shanghai. Comrade, look at this. Yashuang's cream is easy to use. All the girls who come here like it."

"Let me consider."

"Hey, okay. There are some that have been disassembled and assembled here. You can try it."

The salesperson brought an unsealed box, unscrewed the lid, peeled off the wax seal on the surface, and handed it to Lu Miao.

There are "trial bottles" available, and Lu Miao was not polite. He took a little and spread it on the back of his hand. Not to mention, the texture was much more delicate than the ones he bought before, and the metal cap of the porcelain bottle had a good seal.

"Bring me two boxes of this. Forget it, take three boxes."

"This costs three cents per box. Are you sure you want three boxes?"

"Ah."

The salesperson took out the cream and put it away separately. Seeing that Lu Miao was generous and not shy, she couldn't help but become serious and recommended toothpaste and soap to Lu Miao.

There are several brands of toothpaste and soap, and the prices vary from a few cents to a few cents. Lu Miao looked at them, but couldn't see the difference in quality, so she picked up a few boxes of the middle-priced ones.

"That's enough. Can you help me figure out how much it will cost?"

"Okay, comrade, please wait a moment." The saleswoman lowered her head to write down the order, and repeated what she wanted: "Three boxes of Yashuang cream, three boxes of soap, three bars of toothpaste, a total of six yuan. I also need three soap coupons and three bars of toothpaste." I want a foreign exchange coupon, please verify it, comrade."

It was a very simple account, and there was no need to look at the order. Lu Miao thought it through in his mind and gave the money.

Finally, she took the things and left. The salesperson behind her craned her neck to watch for a while.

The young saleswoman opposite asked curiously: "Sister Liu, what are you looking at?"

The salesperson known as Sister Liu shook the ticket in her hand and said:
"Have you seen that lesbian just now? I don't know where it comes from. It's a big unity card. My counter has just opened, and it takes me a long time to find change... I don't know where it comes from."

Envy flashed in the eyes of the young saleswoman opposite. After a while, she regained her composure. She lowered her voice and put a hand on the side of her face, stretched her neck and said:
"You can't just come here to get something and then go back to speculate secretly, right?"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Sister Liu glanced around nervously, shook her head after a while and said: "No, I saw that she is beautiful with thin skin and tender flesh, and her face looks unfamiliar. I guess she is not an educated youth from the city, then... It must be the girl from the leader’s family.”

"Tsk tsk-"

The young saleswoman shook her head and clicked her tongue. Sister Liu waved her hand and said:
"Okay, stop nagging, I'm at work! It's a bad influence."

The idle chat ended hastily, and Lu Miao had no idea what was going on behind the scenes.

After buying the toiletries, she followed the same pattern and bought enough straw paper. She carried the things up to the second floor to see other things, and met Gu Ying and others looking at fabrics on the second floor.

The department store here has this year's new fabrics, and there are several colors, such as blue and white stripes, white with black polka dots, and solid colors of black and white, gray, pale blue, army green, and bright red. There is also a stack.

The materials can be thin or thick, cotton or linen, but Gu Ying and the others can't put it down for a smooth fabric.

Detective Lu Miao looked around. Gu Ying saw her and quickly pulled her over:

"Lu Miao, have you seen it? Indeed, how beautiful is this color?"

Deliang is the most fashionable fabric nowadays, and girls love it. If you can wear a suit of Deliang bragi, it will be as popular as a tunic suit worn by men. It is both beautiful and enviable.

Lu Miao had always spent money lavishly, and it was difficult to get good quality materials in the city. Finally, she came across it here. Gu Ying thought that Lu Miao would not miss it, but Lu Miao's reaction surprised her.

"It's quite pretty." It has a light yellow background with pink camellias printed on it. It looks pretty good as a tablecloth, but it would be too tacky if used as clothing.

Lu Miao was not very interested, and Gu Ying asked doubtfully: "Won't you buy such a beautiful material?"

Lu Miao shook his head and touched the fabric: "It looks good, but I don't like it."

Lu Miao didn't quite understand what quality was, she just felt that the cloth was slippery, much like polyester. It might not wrinkle easily, but it was definitely not breathable.

At this time, it was different from later generations. There was air conditioning everywhere you went, and you could wear vests, T-shirts, etc. under your clothes.

If this really good cloth is made into a dress, as the weather is hot right now, if it is worn directly on the top, Lu Miao would be so stuffy that she would feel so sweaty that the fabric sticks to her body, and How embarrassing.

"Look, I'm going over there for a walk. I just came here and saw someone selling rock candy."

Lu Miao went to buy rock candy without any interest. Geng Xiaoyun told her:

"Don't go too far, you'll get lost in a while."

"I know, am I a child? Can I still get lost?"

Geng Xiaoyun smiled: "Okay, hurry up, we won't have enough time in a while."

Lu Miao stopped staying and looked at the counters one by one, following what he wanted.

Yanji sugarcane is one of the main economic crops, so there are all kinds of sugar here.

Among them, brown sugar, white sugar, and rock sugar are all of good quality. Lu Miao bought some of them, among which rock sugar was the most abundant, followed by brown sugar.

I never had a chance to eat the snow clams I bought from Geng Xiaoyun before. Now that I have rock candy, I can think about it and eat it when I get back.

Department stores also have counters specializing in dry goods, including fried melon seeds, pine nuts, walnuts, red dates, fungus and white fungus.

In addition to the fungus, Lu Miao ordered some. Among them, pine nuts and walnuts were the most expensive, costing [-] pounds. The salesperson explained that these two items came from the north and were good goods. They had to take into account the transportation cost, so they were expensive.

Lu Miao understood and said nothing.

And the price is expensive for people of this generation, but for her, it is a real bargain, not to mention the pine nuts are plump, the walnut shell is thin and crisp, and the quality is really good.

Originally, each of them only bought two kilograms, but before the settlement, Lu Miao added two more kilograms.

When she measured a large amount, it was difficult to carry it in the small pocket. When she was in a dilemma, the salesperson showed rare consideration and said that it would only be delivered in the morning. There happened to be a few woven bags left on the counter, so she got one for her.

The edges of the woven bag were a little frayed, but it did not affect its use. Lu Miao thanked her and confirmed again and again that the woven bag was free of charge and tickets, and then left with a large bag of things.

When he came back and looked again, Gu Ying and the others were no longer in front of the cloth selling counter. Lu Miao glanced at them and planned to leave.

Thinking of something, she turned her gaze back, her red lips pursed slightly, as if she had made some kind of determination, and she dragged the big bulging woven bag towards the cloth counter.

"Hello, comrade, what would you like to order? We have just received a batch of high-quality fabrics from the big city of Shanghai. Girls in the city like them. Do you want to take a look?"

Lu Miao shook his head, raised his finger and said:
"I want three feet of that red cloth. Also, do you sell wires?"
