Forget it, I'll ask people when they close later, and if there are still some for sale when I go back, I'll buy more.
She forced herself to eat these two fried dough sticks and a bowl of tofu puffs. She thought she must not throw them up, it would be too embarrassing.
I felt like I couldn't walk straight anymore. I walked towards the train station carrying two flour bags. The most important thing now was to keep the time right. It felt too uncomfortable to have no time.
Although it looked close, it was still quite far when walking. It took about a quarter of an hour to arrive. Along the way, I saw a grocery store, a grain store, a cloth store, a blacksmith shop, and a post office.
It’s really quite comprehensive and you can really go shopping in a while.
When she arrived at the train station, Su Yuanyuan remembered, why was she so stupid? She could go to the post office to check the time, but she didn't have to come to the train station. Why was she so stubborn?
I feel like my IQ has disappeared since I came here.
Her appearance attracted many people. She was a thin, shabby little girl carrying a bag in one hand.
She arrived just in time for the train to arrive at the station. So there were many people.
"Little girl, how much does a big cake cost?"
Su Yuanyuan was stunned for a moment and looked at the middle-aged man who asked her just now in confusion.
"Uncle, this flatbread costs eight cents a piece. It's freshly baked, and it's very fragrant. This is a craft passed down from our ancestors."
"Eight cents? Too expensive?"
"Uncle, it's not expensive anymore. It's at this price. I guarantee you will feel it's not expensive at all after eating it."
"Okay, then give me two."
"Uncle, I don't have any wrapping paper here."
"It's okay, I have a lunch box."
Su Yuanyuan put the two bags on the bench, and instead of taking the cakes directly with her hands, she picked up the two cakes from the sides of the bags and put them in the lunch box that was handed to her.
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment. Although the little girl was wearing shabby clothes, her clothes were quite clean. And looking at her actions, he knew that she was a really clean person. He took out two cents and handed it to her.
"Uncle, these steamed buns are five cents each. I don't have any change. I have four cents left. Can I give you a steamed bun?"
"Okay. Give me a steamed bun."
The action here attracted a lot of people, including those who wanted to get on the train and those who wanted to get off the train. Smelling the aroma of the food, many people came around.
There were a total of forty two-yuan pancakes and thirty steamed buns, and they were all sold out in less than half an hour.
Su Yuanyuan was smiling all over her face. She didn't expect that she could still make money like this. Although she only made 1.5 yuan, the time was short and no investment was needed. Even if she couldn't sell it, she could still eat it herself. This was really a good business.
It should be okay that no one has come to take care of me for such a long time. Unfortunately, my home is too far away from the county seat. Otherwise, I would come here every day to do business, and it would be quite easy to make money.
Now I felt lighter, and the two noodle bags were folded neatly and put in my pocket. The waiting hall of the train station was full of people, and it was really lively.
Looking at all kinds of people, the colors of their clothes are black, gray and blue, some are wearing octagonal hats, and some are wearing scarves. They are men, women, old and young.
Listening to the voice from the loudspeaker urging you to get on the train, I felt like I was back at the train station where the funeral was held.
Finally I found the big clock and looked at the time on it. I happened to see a woman passing by. "Sister, what time is it now?"
"Little girl, don't you recognize me?"
Su Yuanyuan nodded. "Well, I don't know you."
"It's five past ten now." After speaking, he raised his wrist and said, "Well, the time at the train station is pretty accurate."
"Thank you sister."
"You're welcome."
Su Yuanyuan found a corner and squatted down, took out a watch, adjusted the time, and felt relieved.
The purpose of coming to the county this time has been achieved. Now I can go out for a walk.
I am walking happily on the road. I made a dollar and a half today. I must spend it.
So she went to the grocery store and bought ten candles for two cents each and kerosene lamps for one and a half dollars, but there were no bottles for diesel. So she forgot about it. Matches cost one cent a box, so she bought ten boxes. She bought one salt.
It costs two cents per catty. Alkaline noodles cost two cents per catty. They were all wrapped in wrapping paper. Brown sugar cost eight cents per catty. I also saw soybean oil, but it was not dressed in a guy style.
"Little girl, I have jars and plastic buckets here, but these buckets are too expensive. Each one costs two yuan."
Su Yuanyuan shook her head, forget it, there is a lot of vegetable oil in the space. There is no need to spend such money.
I saw soap, which is made from pig pancreas and caustic soda. You can buy this, and I bought three pieces for 50 cents.
"Little girl, there are glutinous rice noodles here, would you like some?" How can a child not like these?
Su Yuanyuan shook her head. Although the snacks now have no additives, she has too much space and needs too many things, so she still spends less money on food. She forgot that she bought three yuan of food just now.
.
"Boss, I would like to ask, are there any livestock plow harnesses for sale?"
"I don't have one here, but if you need it, have you seen that house? They sell livestock and make condoms."
"Thank you, boss. Do you have cotton shoes here? I can wear them, and there are also waterproof ones."
"Yes, let me show it to you. It's made of cowhide. It's no problem to wear it in the snow."
Su Yuanyuan took it in her hand and looked at it, and she thought it was OK. It was quite thick, and it was made of high quality, reaching up to the legs and wrists. And the soles were made of rubber. There was no black cotton or anything like that, so it felt like it was new cotton.
"Boss, how much do these shoes cost?"
"For six yuan, you bought a lot of things from me, so I gave you a dime less."
Su Yuanyuan shook her head, "It's too expensive, I can't afford it."
"I also have ordinary cotton shoes here, which cost two yuan a pair. Think about it, just a pair of well-packed shoe soles costs fifty cents. Plus the uppers are made of cotton, and the cost alone costs one sixty-seven yuan.
.Two yuan is really not expensive.”
"Boss, I still think it's too expensive. Forget it, I don't have that much money."
Su Yuanyuan is now thinking about getting a harness for the mature sheep. Next spring, the lamb will be two or three months old. By then, letting it pull the harness will save effort in farming.
But this has to be made to order, right? Ready-made ones probably won’t be used.
The person who opened the door for her was an old man. "What's the matter?"
"Uncle, I would like to ask if your family can customize animal harnesses?"
"Okay, it's ready."
"Uncle, I can't use the ready-made ones. I want to make a harness for the sheep. I am the only one in my family. The village gave me two acres of land. I only have one sheep at home, so I want to try it."
