Chapter 110 Borrowing money
Qingke Phosphorus District, Experimental Market No. 18.
Ji Xiaoyan patted her belly twice with a satisfied look on her face, smiled happily at Yu Qisi who was walking next to her, and then looked at the few bags that Yu Qisi was holding in his hand and they tried it along the way.
After eating it, I picked out the food I liked, blinked and asked, "Is it serious on July 4th? How about I help get half of it?"
"No need, Miss Xiaoyan, this thing is actually not heavy at all." When Yu Qisi heard Ji Xiaoyan's words, his heart suddenly warmed up, and then he said with a smile: "If this weight is compared with what we used to train,
, that’s the difference between heaven and earth... Miss Xiaoyan, there are snacks over there, should we go over and have a look?"
"Can you still eat?" Ji Xiaoyan looked at Yu Qisi with a smile and asked.
Although there are very few naturally produced foods in the Federation now and are very expensive, there are still some. At least Ji Xiaoyan saw several in this market, but the price was very daunting...
. Other synthetic and indoor-cultured foods are relatively cheaper, and there are many types of foods. Many of them have never been seen or eaten by Ji Xiaoyan before! Therefore, she and
Along the way, Yu Qisi basically visited every stall and tried something fresh!
"I still have a big appetite!" Yu Qisi blushed immediately when he heard Ji Xiaoyan's words, and then said: "But if you, Miss Xiaoyan, can't eat anymore, shall we go back to the hotel now? Anyway, in the hotel
There's also food...it's free!" After saying that, Yu Qisi winked at Ji Xiaoyan mischievously.
"Keep shopping!!" Ji Xiaoyan sniffed the scent of food in the air, and then said, "I'm actually only half full. Let's go back when we're full! I'm just worried about you carrying so many things.
, it’s just troublesome! However, since you said there is no problem, let’s continue walking inside... By the way, please remember to remind me to buy Luo Ye something to eat later, otherwise he will know that we are out when we turn around.
If you didn’t call him when you went shopping and didn’t bring him food when you came back, that wouldn’t be good! You used to be his housekeeper, so you should know what flavors he likes to eat, right?”
"Yes!" Yu Qisi nodded, and then said with a smile: "If we encounter it, I will definitely remind you!"
Will Young Master Yu Jiangxia eat food from outside casually? The answer is obviously no! Generally speaking, imported food needs to be carefully inspected to ensure safety before being imported. Even if you eat outside, you generally don’t
They will not go to any store they trust, let alone something from a small market like this.
Originally, Yu Qisi did not advocate taking Ji Xiaoyan around to try food in the market, but then he thought about it, Ji Xiaoyan is not famous now, and it is impossible for someone to come here deliberately to harm her. If now
If she doesn’t take this opportunity to try out this atmosphere, she will probably never have the chance again...
Especially when Ji Xiaoyan becomes a famous person in the game one day, her real life will be even more difficult!
"Then let's go!" When Ji Xiaoyan heard Yu Qisi's words, he immediately smiled, then looked around, chose a small stall that looked very lively, and pulled Yu Qisi towards it.
, "It's very lively over there, let's go and take a look?"
"Yeah!" Yu Qisi tightened the things he was carrying, smiled and followed Ji Xiaoyan.
The stall Ji Xiaoyan and the others chose was a food stall among a bunch of small department store stalls. Both sides of the long aisle from east to west were crowded with people. Some wanted to go through the crowd to the other side, and some just wanted to go to the other side.
Of course, the most customers who browse the products at nearby department stores are those who come to eat.
Ji Xiaoyan glanced curiously at the crowd and found that he had no way to squeeze in, so he had to turn his head to Yu Qisi with some disappointment and said: "Let's wait in line to get in!"
Yu Qisi smiled silently and nodded.
At this moment, Ji Xiaoyan suddenly saw a middle-aged woman squeeze out of the crowd next to her. She was holding a stack of brand-new federal coins and standing next to a department store stall where she was standing, pointing at the stall.
The child in front was trying on a hat. He looked at the stall owner and asked, "Are there any other hats for children like this?"
"Yes!" When the stall owner heard that there was business, he immediately replied with a smile.
"How much?" When the middle-aged woman heard this, she smiled happily, and then shouted to the side twice: "Mom, Mom, bring the kids over quickly, we have the goods here."
The stall owner smiled and waited until the middle-aged woman greeted her relatives, and then continued: "Guest, this kind of hat is not expensive. You can buy one for only 560 federal dollars. This is a foreign currency."
Made from the fur of a mutated flying squirrel from District 1, it used to cost at least more than a thousand federal coins. Now because we have a celebration in Qingke Phosphorus District and the federal government subsidizes us, we get a half-price discount!"
When the middle-aged woman heard this, she frowned hesitantly. She glanced at a child and an old man who had squeezed in beside her. After thinking about it, she looked at the old man and asked, "Mom, what do you think?
”
When the old man heard the price, he immediately shook his head and said: "Five hundred and sixty federal dollars are so expensive, so don't buy it."
The middle-aged woman was a little hesitant. When the child who was being held by the old man next to her heard what the old man said, she immediately said aggrievedly: "Grandma, I want it, I want it." The middle-aged woman looked at the child distressedly, and then thought about it.
He said to the old man: "Mom, why don't you buy one for your child? It's five hundred and sixty federal coins. Let's just buy less stuff later! Go back, wait until the game starts, and then I'll go into the game and get rid of my clothes."
If you sell a little of those things, you can make money!"
The old man thought for a while, without nodding, but looked at the middle-aged woman and said: "How much can you sell those things for? We still owe them more than 5,000 federal dollars for the connector!..."
p>
The middle-aged woman thought for a while, then frowned and stood aside, glanced at the stall owner who was greeting other customers, and said in a low voice to the old man: "Otherwise, I will go back and sell the items in my bag."
Come on! As long as we find the right buyer, that thing will definitely be sold for a big price. Then our family will not have to worry about our future life, and it will also give Xiaoya better living conditions..."
When the old man heard this, he immediately looked around cautiously and did not realize that Ji Xiaoyan and the others happened to hear their conversation. After a while, he shook his head and said sternly to the middle-aged woman: "Are you crazy? What is that?
Can something be sold easily? Maybe it will lead to death! Didn’t you tell me? That thing has appeared before. In the end, no one knows whether the seller got the money. But the thing is
It was obtained by someone, but by what means, who knows? Qing, we are all ordinary people, and we cannot afford to offend those people with big families and big businesses. If that thing really shows up, it will be snatched away.
Forget it, but if someone takes it away and hurts us... then it’s really not worth the loss!"
"But, Mom, today is also Xiaoyao's tenth birthday after all! He just likes this kind of thing..." The middle-aged woman looked heartbrokenly at the little hand holding her clothes tightly next to her, then looked at the old man and said:
"Actually, as long as we find a good buyer..."
"Qing, stop talking!" When the old man heard this, he immediately said: "Can you know those powerful and powerful families? If there is no connection, any group of people who come out can wipe out our family...
.Qing, I know that after Heng'er left, the burden of the family fell on you, and the old woman had no ability to live, and she had to drag you down! However, no matter how hard and tired I am, I only hope that our family of three can live in peace.
Just keep living..."
"Mom!" When the middle-aged woman heard this, she burst into tears immediately, "I don't think you are dragging me down..."
The old man wiped the corners of his eyes, glanced at the middle-aged woman with relief, then put on a smile again, and said to the child who was looking at the middle-aged woman longingly: "Xiaoyu, what happened to grandma and mother today?"
I didn’t bring enough money, how about we wait a few days before buying a hat? How about we go to the other side to buy some food for Xiaoyu first?"
"No, no!" When the child heard this, he shook his head and said with a cry: "Mom said today is my birthday and she will give me a gift!"
"But mom didn't bring enough money with her today!" the old man continued to coax, and then looked at his grandson and said: "We will buy it in a few days. If Xiaoyao wants to be obedient, grandma will ask mom to give him more."
Xiaoya buy some delicious food, okay? Didn’t Xiaoya say a few days ago that she wanted to eat those flowing rainbow candies? Grandma, can she take Xiaoya to buy them together?"
"No, no! I want a hat, I want a flying squirrel hat!" As soon as the child heard this, he started crying. Many people shopping next to him saw this and immediately moved aside. Children like this were fighting over each other.
The drama of making a fuss about buying something can be seen everywhere in the market, and it is not unusual at all. If you don’t stay away, and the child spoils it on you later, you won’t have a seizure!
The middle-aged woman smiled awkwardly at the people around her, quickly hugged the child and continued to coax her.
Ji Xiaoyan saw the child crying heartbrokenly, and the old man also had a bitter smile on his face, and immediately felt a little uncomfortable. In her impression, she had done such a thing when she was a child, crying.
What did the parents look like when they were clamoring to buy something they liked but had no use for? They must have been the same as the mother in front of them...
Thinking of this, Ji Xiaoyan looked at the crowds of people queuing in front of the food stalls, said something to Yu Qisi, then took out 600 federal coins, walked to the middle-aged woman and said:
"Sister, if you don't mind, I'll lend you this money! You can return it to me when it's convenient for you!"
She had the idea of giving the money directly to the middle-aged woman, or buying the flying squirrel hat directly to give to the child, but looking back, if she encountered such a thing, there was another thing on her body that was said to be
There’s no guarantee that you won’t think too much about things that can “lead to death”! How can there be so many people in the world willing to give themselves free things?!
So, after thinking about it, Ji Xiaoyan still felt that it would be better to lend money to others! If they don't pay it back, forget it, just do your best and accumulate blessings for yourself...
As expected, when the middle-aged woman and the old man heard Ji Xiaoyan's words, they immediately looked at her warily, then shook their heads and said, "No, no need!"
With that said, the middle-aged woman immediately picked up the child and prepared to leave.
"Mom, I want a hat, I want a flying squirrel hat..." As soon as the child heard his mother's words, he immediately twisted around, struggled and shouted: "Mom, you promised to buy me a flying squirrel hat, you promised
That's right! Dad also said that when I am ten years old, he will buy me a flying squirrel hat..."
When the middle-aged woman heard this, her eyes suddenly showed a trace of sadness, and she looked at the struggling child in her arms with some confusion.
"Xiaoyi..." The old man's face darkened, he looked at the child and said, "You have to listen to your mother!"
"I want a hat...I want a hat!" The child obviously didn't buy it and kept struggling and shouting.
"Well, eldest sister, why don't you lend me this little money to buy a hat for your child? I don't mean anything malicious! I just think you remind me of the way my parents were when I was a child..." Ji Xiaoyan said sincerely
Looking at the middle-aged woman, she said.
"No..." The middle-aged woman just refused, but was immediately interrupted by the struggling child in her arms.
"Sister, I really don't have any ill intentions!" Ji Xiaoyan continued.
The old man looked at the heartbroken child crying in the middle-aged woman's arms with some distress, and then looked at Ji Xiaoyan seriously. After thinking for a long time, he asked in a deep voice: "Little girl, can you please help me?"
If money is given to us, how do we need to pay it back? "Usury? Or is it for some other purpose?
"Ah! Well, if you have money, you can pay me back! I'm not in a hurry!" Upon hearing this, Ji Xiaoyan tried his best to smile as gently as possible, and then said.
"Do you need us to write you an IOU?" the old man asked again.
"No, no need!" Ji Xiaoyan shook his head and saw the old man's eyes suddenly changed, so he quickly said: "If you insist, I don't care!"
Anyway, she had no idea of asking the family to pay her back.
The old man thought for a moment, looked at the child, and then said to Ji Xiaoyan: "Since you are kind-hearted, we will lend you the money. However, we can't say when we can pay back the money."
You!"
"Well, it's okay. When you have enough money, you can return it to me!" Ji Xiaoyan smiled immediately after hearing this, and then handed the federal coin in his hand to the old man.
"Well, after we buy the hats, I will write you an IOU. Please wait a moment. We will be ready soon!" The middle-aged woman smiled at Ji Xiaoyan gratefully, and then
Chapter completed!
