Chapter 50 Buying Coal
After Wen Shunian came out, he began to look around again. At this time, a young man in his 20s walked up to Wen Shunian and asked in a low voice.

"Sister, do you need cloth?"

"What cloth? How much is there?" Wen Shunian was surprised that this young looking man actually had cloth.

"Cotton and so on, there are many styles, if you want, you can go and have a look with me."

"where is it?"

"It's in the house in front, you come with me," said the man and walked forward.

Wen Shunian looked around. People in twos and threes took out an electric baton from the space and put them in a basket for emergency use.

Wen Shunian followed and walked in, seeing that the man didn't lock the door, but just opened it up, Wen Shuonian was slightly relieved, but remained vigilant all the time.

The man brought Wen Shunian into the living room, and it was full of cloth, including silk and cotton, colorfully colored, and he was surprised by the amount.

The man saw Wen Shunian's surprise, and took the initiative to explain: "My friend works in a cloth factory, and there are many defective cloths to deal with. I just took some to deal with. You choose first."

Wen Shunian touched the cloth and asked, "How do you sell these?"

"Ten yuan for a piece of cloth does not require a ticket."

Wen Shunian chose a sky blue one, a dark blue one and a gray one, planning to make two quilt covers for himself and grandpa.

Wen Shunian bought three bolts of cloth and gave the money, thinking that since this person has friends who work in the cloth factory, maybe there are friends who work in other factories, so he asked a lot.

"What else do you have besides cloth?"

The young man was stunned for a moment, then reacted instantly, and said with a smile: "There are also ready-made shoes and so on."

"Is there any coal?"

"Have."

"how many?"

"It's hard to say how many, how much do you want? If there are more, I'll ask my friend?"

Wen Shunian nodded and said, "Two tons, is there any?"

Honeycomb coal in this era costs only 800 yuan per ton, and one piece can be burned for an hour, so Wen Shunian wanted to buy more, because honeycomb coal is used in many places at home.

"There are two tons, but there is no way to bring them to you now. It will be done at night, and coal is not cheap."

"how much is it?"

The man raised his eyebrows and said, "Basically, the big one costs five cents, and the small one costs four cents."

"Big one, I'll give you the address later, and you can pull it over for me."

After the two had a good talk, Wen Shunian gave a deposit of 20 yuan, and made an appointment, Wen Shunian directly gave the address of the courtyard to the young man, anyway, there will be no people living there in a short time, so it doesn't matter if he knows .

And the most important thing is that I bought it from the black market, I just came to Kyoto, and I don't know any acquaintances, so it is impossible to ask someone to pull so much coal, so I can only let them deliver it.

Seeing that it was almost noon, Wen Shunian rushed home. When he got home, his grandfather was just about to cook, and Wen Shunian sat on the bench beside him panting.

"What are you doing, girl, she's out of breath."

Wen Shunian answered his grandfather while taking a breather: "I went to buy a few pieces of cloth, and then inquired about briquettes."

Grandpa slightly raised his eyebrows, glanced at Wen Shunian and said, "Where did you go again?"

"Well, the supply and marketing cooperative has too few things, and the quantity is still limited."

"Although it's not as strict as before, you still have to be careful..."

"I know, I know, be careful with the ten-thousand-year ship, grandpa always says that," Wen Shunian rushed to answer before grandpa finished speaking.

Grandpa said with a smile: "It's good that you know, have you heard about the briquettes?"

"Yeah, tonight at eight o'clock they will be dragged to the courtyard, and then I have to trouble Grandpa to go with me, hehe," Wen Shunian said to his grandpa with a smile.

"Okay, let's go together tonight."

After the grandpa and grandson finished their lunch, Wen Shunian took his grandpa and Feifei to measure the sheets and quilt covers together.

Grandpa and Feifei were stunned when they saw Wen Shunian give each of them a piece of cloth.

"Girl, why are you buying so much cloth?"

Wen Shunian replied while cutting: "Make some sets of sheets and quilts for the three of us."

Grandpa and Feifei have been completely speechless by Wen Shunian's prodigal behavior, and they can't say anything. Who told their granddaughter to make money? It's good to spend money to make money.

Wen Shunian was still there while comparing and arranging things and said: "I bought three colors, it just so happens that the three of us each have three colors."

The three of them worked hard all afternoon and finished nine sets. Wen Shunian took them out and went to a tailor to sew them up. After dinner, Wen Shunian began to wash the sheets and quilt covers.

It will be dry after two or three days in the sun, and you can change and wash it.After washing, the appointment time was almost up, so Wen Shunian took his grandfather to the courtyard.

Not long after the two arrived, there was the sound of parking outside, and then someone knocked on the door, and Wen Shunian opened the door to invite the young man in.

"Sister, I said your yard is nice, it's quite big," the man said while arranging for someone to unload the briquettes while looking at Wen Shunian's house.

"It's okay, just put the coal in the room over there."

The young man brought three people and it didn't take long for the briquettes to be placed.

Wen Shunian thanked and handed the rest of the money to the man.

"Next time I need I'll come back to you."

After counting the money, the man opened his mouth and said to Wen Shunian: "Sister, just call me Liangzi. There are a lot of good things in my place. If you need anything, just come and find me there today."

After Liangzi finished speaking, she said goodbye to Wen Shunian and grandpa and left.After Wen Shunian sent Liang Zi away, Grandpa tapped Wen Shunian's forehead with his hand.

"I said you girl is really brave, how can you buy so much at once, you are not afraid of attracting people's attention."

Wen Shunian stuck out her tongue playfully, took Grandpa's hand and said coquettishly, "Grandpa, I know I was wrong. The weather is getting colder and colder, so I want to buy more."

"Every time I talk about you, I know I've made a mistake, so I just don't change it. That's fine, let's go home."

The grandfather and grandson returned home, and the grandfather kept talking about Wen Shunian all the way, which made Wen Shunian feel full of happiness, and the feeling of being cared for was really great.

Two days later, Wen Shunian took the time to go out, and brought back enough vegetables and meat for the three of them for a week, as well as eggs from home, Wen Shunian basically used an excuse to go out every day to get some back.

Tian Wen Shu Nian had just returned with his things and was about to put them in the kitchen, when his grandfather called Wen Shu Nian to stop him.

"Girl, here are some letters from you," Grandpa pointed to the letters on the table and told Wen Shunian.

"Grandpa, I'll put the dishes in the kitchen first, and I'll be here right away," Wen Shunian rushed into the kitchen and then rushed out again.

He took four letters from the table, the first one was from the village head uncle, the second was from Xiao Juan, the third was from Guo Xinyue, and the fourth was from Gu Hanjiang.
