Chapter 7
Ye Qian also knew that she couldn't stay in the city for long, at most three days, otherwise it would be difficult to explain when she returned to the village.After Ye Qian finished counting the money and tickets, she began to pack up the supplies to be sold tomorrow.

The main thing is food, and what is lacking now is food.

Coarse grains and fine grains have been packaged separately, and the dried noodles without trademarks have been sold out, and the rest have to be dismantled and repacked by themselves.The brown sugar and white sugar are packed in two catties. Thinking about the purchasing power here, I sorted out some canned meat and fruit by myself.These two are okay, the outer label paper is pasted up, soaked in water, and then rubbed off.A few chickens, ducks, and fish were brought out, and these were sold by the individual.

With the supplies sorted out now, Ye Qian doesn't plan to ask for food stamps anymore. She still has hundreds of taels of food stamps in her hand, and the food stamps are also time-limited, and they will be wasted if they expire.

Although she doesn't need food stamps, she can exchange some other tickets, such as bicycle tickets, watch tickets, industrial rolls, etc., to buy some items belonging to this era.After packing up, he piled up the things in a corner on one side, and lay back in the tent by himself.This body is also too poor. I haven't done much. I'm sweaty and panting. It looks like I'm usually too lazy.

Forget it, go to bed first.Let's talk tomorrow.

……

It was already midnight when Ye Qian fell asleep last night, and she didn't get up until almost noon the next day. After dawdling in the tent for a while, she decided to skip breakfast and go directly to the state-run restaurant for lunch.

I left the space after 11 o'clock, and it was almost 12 o'clock when I walked to the state-run hotel.

Today is fine, not many people.

The state-run restaurants in the city are larger than those in the county seat, with 6 tables in the lobby and several private rooms upstairs.There is not much difference in other things, you have to order and take your own food.

Ye Qian glanced at the blackboard behind the waiter. Meat, fish, and chicken are served for lunch today. The staple food is rice, white flour steamed buns, and coarse grains.This city is different, the supply is so abundant.Seeing the braised pork that she was thinking of, Ye Qian said to the waiter in front of her, "Comrade, give me a piece of braised pork, and the staple food is rice."

A serving of braised pork costs 3 taels of meat tickets. She doesn't have many meat tickets, and meat tickets are expensive things. Many people are unwilling to exchange them. After all, the whole family only has a few taels of meat tickets a month.

The waiter took the money and ticket from Ye Qian, and then said, "Find a seat and sit down, I'll call you later."

Ye Qian found a place closest to the dining window, but there was no other way, the place was delicious.After waiting for 20 minutes, "The braised pork, the rice is ready." The people in the lobby swallowed when they heard the braised pork.Ye Qian quickly went to bring her own food, and after taking a look, sure enough, there are still so many dishes here.

It was the first time she saw so much meat in the braised pork outside. The braised pork in later generations would be served with many things. It looked like a lot, but in fact there was not much meat.To say that the people of this era are simple and not fake at all, that is, a large plate of braised pork is really nothing else, and it looks very appetizing when paired with a large bowl of rice.

Ye Qian picked up the rice bowl and put a chopstick of rice into her mouth.He frowned. What kind of rice is this?
I took a bite of meat, um, it’s not bad, the meat is multi-layered, fat but not greasy, the skin on the top is also very chewy, and the soup below is sticky.But she can't just eat meat, let others see how gluttonous I am, I don't want to lose face.

Ye Qian frowned and ate some with rice and pork belly, and then packed the rest in a lunch box.

After all waste is shameful.

……

After eating, Ye Qian took the bus and went to the nearby textile factory.Textile factories are all workers. Since they have money, their purchasing power must be good.Ye Qian walked around the textile factory, found a place where no one was around, entered the space to put on makeup, and then came out, then squatted under the tree on the right side of the gate.

Seeing two young women coming out, he took out the headband and hairpin and asked, "Miss, do you want a hairpin and hairpin?"

There is no woman nowadays who does not love beauty, and the hair clips and headbands of later generations are much more beautiful than the current ones, even if they are very cheap.

The two women saw the blingbling hairpin and said, "This hairpin is so pretty." They quickly asked, "How much is it?"

"This is from my relatives who came back from the Shanghai stock market, so it's a bit expensive, 5 yuan each." The two young ladies hesitated when they heard it. They are indeed beautiful, but they are also too expensive.

The wages of the current workers are 18 yuan and some food stamps when they first enter the factory. If they become full-time workers, they will get 25 yuan plus food stamps and some other tickets, so this hairpin is really not cheap.

"Miss, if you can help me get some people to come out and buy them, I'll give you hair ropes, one for each person, and this hair rope costs 5 for 2 yuan." The two women who were still hesitating at first heard such a If you want to do something good, you should immediately answer "Okay, you wait, I will call for you, I am optimistic about this, you keep it for me, and pay for it later."

After a while, the two young ladies called several colleagues over.Then Ye Qian sold some hairpins, hair ties, and some brown sugar and honey.

She can't stay in one place for a long time, or she will be easily caught, and she will leave quickly after collecting the money.

It was still early, and Ye Qian went to the supply and marketing cooperative again, and sold a lot of dried noodles, rice, and white noodles in the same way as the county town.Sure enough, if you do too many bad things, you won’t be afraid. You were obviously timid a few days ago, but now you are so relaxed and natural.But this is easy to cause accidents, and she must be more vigilant.

After the supplies are sold out, Ye Qian also wants to buy something.She hasn't eaten canned food from this era yet, so buy a few cans and try.Then I bought some toothpaste, toothbrush, soap, and towels. The things in later generations are different from the current ones, and these have to be placed outside for people to see.I also bought some cigarettes and alcohol. Tobacco and alcohol also have cigarette tickets and alcohol tickets, and there is a limit on purchases. One cigarette per person at most, and one person at most two bottles of alcohol.

Seeing the pastries on the counter, I bought some more pastries. Pastries also need dim sum tickets.Anyway, votes are required for everything.

Looking at the pastry, she couldn't help but taste it. This pastry is definitely incomparable to those of later generations, so she didn't expect much, so there is no disappointment.Ye Qian walked out of the supply and marketing cooperative and put all the things in the back basket into the space.

It's getting late after shopping, and now she has to eat dinner quickly, after all, that's the big order at night.

She noticed yesterday that there is a man on the black market, he should be called Dao Ye, who collects things there.This is just right, she will sell it slowly, it won't be long, it's just right if the master can collect it all.Ye Qian went to the state-run restaurant again, and saw braised elbow, braised fish, braised pork, and braised mutton written on the blackboard.

This state-run restaurant has a lot of meat, but can it only be braised in soy sauce?She ordered a braised fish, thinking about the rice at noon, so forget it, and ordered a steamed bun with white noodles.

Pay the money and ticket, find a place to sit down.

Now you have to give fish tickets to eat fish, but you can use meat tickets to pay for it.Ye Qian ate the braised fish, braised fish and steamed buns in front of her. She couldn't help but sigh that the steamed buns are three-in-one noodles with a sweet taste. Sure enough, the steamed buns are still delicious.

After eating, Ye Qian walked out of the state-run restaurant and headed towards the black market.She went early and sold two rounds of supplies before she saw the rogue last night.

That old man is not very old, about 30 years old. I saw him yesterday and collected a lot of supplies. The collected supplies were transported back, and then he continued to collect them. He ran back and forth several times, so Ye Qian was so sure that he was a man. Damn.
