Although he didn't have to go to work during the holiday, his powerful biological clock still woke him up.
When Lin Fan woke up, he thought of Xu Feifei whom he had saved that day, and didn't know what she was doing.
"Hey~ I seem to be thinking too much."
Xu Feifei was also the first girl he met in time that made his heart beat. But when he thought that she was the daughter of a top-level person in Forty-Nine City, his feelings faded away.
Better get up.
Lin Fan was still lying in bed two days ago. He couldn't get up today. Tomorrow would be New Year's Eve. If he didn't buy new year's goods, no shops would be open.
Salespeople also have to celebrate the New Year, but there are no shops that are still open during the Chinese New Year.
The reason for getting up so early is to get to the market early. The Chinese New Year is approaching and there are some New Year goods that need to be grabbed. This is not a time when supplies will be abundant in the future.
On the first day of the holiday, Lin Fan bought food from the grain station.
If you don’t do this, the food at home will always run out. If you don’t go to the food station to buy it, how will the food at home come from?
So buying pork is one thing. If you don’t go early, the fat meat will have been bought up long ago.
When I went out to wash up, many people had already gotten up in the yard.
It seems that there are quite a few people who think the same as Lin Fan.
After washing up quickly and skipping breakfast, Lin Fan took a lot of cloth bags and tied them to the back seat of the bicycle, then quickly pushed the bicycle out.
I have a bicycle, which is much faster than yours.
Have you had breakfast yet? I plan to wait until after the meat shopping is over.
It was already bright, and although there was no sun, the weather was pretty good, with no haze or sandstorm.
When Lin Fan came to the vegetable market, he realized that he was wrong, because there were many people who had the same idea as him.
Lin Fan had only read about things in the 1960s in some novels or movies. He also knew that in this era, everyone was short of food and clothing.
But some things were beyond his imagination. Every meat stall was always lined with people.
It seems that with the arrival of the New Year, everyone has plans to buy meat as a reward for themselves and to bring some to their families.
Lin Fan didn't show too much pretense. He had experienced such a situation before, except when queuing at the station. He had never queued in such a long queue.
It's just that queuing at that time was more of a kind of anxiety, especially the behavior of the people around you would make you even more uncomfortable.
But it's different now. People in front of him, behind him, and on both sides have smiles on their faces.
This smile also infected him.
Although people in this era were living a hard life, with many people lacking enough food and clothing, his cheerful and uplifting performance made him feel the same way.
This may be why China can still develop after experiencing such natural disasters for three years and become a truly powerful country that can speak for itself in the future.
Listening to the people around him chatting and talking about work and family matters, Lin Fan didn't feel bored waiting in line.
After about half an hour, it was finally his turn. Lin Fan didn't buy too much, just half fat meat, half lean meat, plus two pig's trotters.
After paying the money and ticket, Lin Fan took the 'trophy' to his bicycle and tied the bag tightly. These were the pork on the surface.
Others don’t know how much pork they have bought, so they certainly won’t skimp on food. There is a lot of it piled up in the warehouse.
After fulfilling one of his wishes, Lin Fan came to the breakfast shop to have breakfast.
After breakfast, Lin Fan went to the department store to buy new clothes.
The streets were crowded with people buying new year's goods. Everyone's faces were filled with happy smiles, and the sound of firecrackers could be heard from time to time.
"This is the Chinese New Year."
Seeing this strong flavor of the New Year, Lin Fan felt very emotional in his heart. The flavor of the New Year in future generations is getting weaker and weaker.
I don’t know if it’s because I’ve grown up or because society has changed.
He had not experienced such a lively market for a long time. Affected by the people around him, he even slowed down his movements and rode his bicycle slowly on the street.
When we arrived at the department store, it was already crowded with people.
Walking into the department store, Lin Fan found that the department store had much more complete items today, including various snacks and candies, and there were quite a lot of them.
The last time he came to the department store to buy a bicycle, he had never seen so many things before.
It seems that in order to prepare for the New Year, the country has also made great efforts, hoping that the people can live a happy and satisfying New Year.
It's just that compared to the army of buyers, such a small amount of things will be swept away in a short time.
I counted the tickets on my body, and found that there were two kilograms of candies, four taels of cakes, and three taels of peanuts.
He was going to exchange all the candy tickets and pastry tickets. As for the peanuts, he would keep a pound, after all, he still had them on his farm.
I followed the flow of people to the counter, told me what I wanted, handed over the money and tickets, took the things and left the counter.
Lin Fan then went to buy new cotton-padded clothes. As for quilts, cotton was a problem.
"oops!"
Lin Fan, who walked out of the department store, patted his head and said to himself: "Why did I forget to plant cotton? This is really..."
Cotton was in short supply, and two generations had accumulated five kilograms of cotton coupons over more than ten years, many of which were exchanged from pigeon markets.
Moreover, the bills are still third-grade cotton and second-grade cotton.
Although these cottons are cheap, the quality is average. You will lose a lot when you stretch the cotton, and the thermal insulation effect is average.
"Well, after we get back, we'll have to wait for the rest of the things in the farm to gather together the cotton. We can't get married without a new quilt."
I have decided to wake up, sow the cotton when I get back, and then go straight to playing it after the cotton is received, and then buy some cloth to make a quilt.
Good cloth requires cloth stamps, but there is a type of cloth that does not require cloth stamps, and that is "big zero cloth", which is defective and defective cloth.
This type of cloth is caused by problems during dyeing, and the dyed colors of the cloth are messy, as if ink has been spilled on the cloth.
So these cloths will be released occasionally, which can be considered a benefit.
It was these cloths that Lin Fan was eyeing.
If you can't buy it, you can only go to Pigeon Market to buy cloth tickets.
Cloth tickets were so scarce that he didn't know if he could buy them or how much he could buy.
After thinking about it, Lin Fan rode his bicycle and prepared to go home.
--------
On a certain street, three people were secretly conducting some kind of transaction under a tree.
"Count it, it's sixty-two kilograms, it's done."
"Your sixty-two pounds is not a pound of weight."
"Yeah."
"I should give you twelve dollars and forty cents."
...
After some exchanges, an intermediary finally took the money directly, even if the transaction was over.
And these three people are He Yuzhu, the deaf old lady and the food stamp reseller.
When He Yuzhu carried the deaf old lady back, he was still complaining: "This is the first time I see an old lady exchanging food stamps. Please pay attention. I will carry you to the police station and accuse you of speculation."
However, due to the deaf old lady's pretending to be deaf, He Yuzhu's moves were completely ineffective.
On the way back, He Yuzhu carried the deaf old lady on his back and met Lou Xiao'e who was out.
Lou Xiao'e, who noticed the old lady, immediately saw the shoes on He Yuzhu's feet. Aren't those the shoes the old lady asked her to buy for her relatives? How could they be worn on Shazhu's feet?
When Lin Fan came back, he saw Lou Xiao'e angrily walking on the road. Lin Fan was a little curious and said, "Hey, Sister Xiao'e, what's wrong with you? Who made you angry?"
When Lou Xiao'e saw that it was Lin Fan, when she thought of Sha Zhu's attitude, she said angrily: "It's not that bastard Sha Zhu. What he said made me angry to death."
Lin Fan raised his eyes and saw He Yuzhu again.
"What's wrong? How did that stupid Zhu offend you again?"
Then Lou Xiao'e told Lin Fan about buying shoes, and then Lin Fan knew the reason.
He also remembered that it was the old lady who was reselling food stamps today, and then he met Lou Xiao'e. With that silly mouth, in order to defend the old lady, he must have had to be ruthless, and Lou Xiao'e was very angry.
Lin Fan said: "This old lady is the same. If you want to buy shoes for Silly Zhu, just tell me directly, and you still have to go through such twists and turns."
After buying shoes for Sha Zhu, the old lady's mind had already moved. She planned to introduce Lou Xiao'e to Sha Zhu.
But now Lou Xiao'e is no fool.
Because of Xu Damao, Lou Xiaoe also had a bad attitude towards He Yuzhu.
As for He Yuzhu, for the same reason, he felt that Lou Xiaoe had learned bad things from following Xu Damao.
The deaf old lady was shrewd all her life, but she failed in this matter. She actually locked the two of them up.
A girl as good as Lou Xiao'e cannot be defeated by He Yuzhu, otherwise her matchmaking would be in vain.
We need to act quickly. We should expose Xu Damao's dirty things first, get Lou Xiao'e out of the sea of misery as soon as possible, and let the Lou family leave Sijiu City and go to the south as soon as possible.
With such a relationship, after arriving in Xiangjiang, Lou Xiao'e's ability will definitely be able to buy a lot of property.
After the change is opened and Lou Xiao'e comes back, he will have such a network of contacts.
After that, I won’t have to expend much effort to buy a family property.
Lin Fan said: "Don't worry, Silly Zhu, this bastard, I will teach him a lesson. What are you busy with?"
After Lou Xiao'e said something, her mood relaxed and she said: "Hey, it's almost the Chinese New Year, let's go buy some New Year's goods."
After a brief chat, the two of them went about their own business.
When he returned to the backyard, Lin Fan heard a sound coming from the old lady's house.
He heard the loud voices of He Yuzhu and Yi Zhonghai clearly. They were at the old lady's house.
As soon as the door was opened, He Yuzhu came out of the old lady's house.
Lin Fan took a closer look and saw that He Yuzhu was indeed wearing a pair of new shoes on his feet.
"Hey, Xiaofan is back here buying new year's goods? There are a lot of things, I'm really willing to spend a lot of money."
Hearing He Yuzhu's words, Lin Fan rolled his eyes. There were really no good words to say from this idiot Zhu.
"Yeah, tomorrow is the New Year's Eve. I'm going to have New Year's Eve dinner at Sister Qin's house tomorrow. I can't just let the uncle do all the shopping."
Lin Fan said.
He Yuzhu's eyes lit up, and he also thought about it: "That's a good relationship. There are so many things. It seems that there will be delicious food this year. You are busy, you are busy, so I will leave first."
"good."
PS: This chapter starts with more than 3,000 words, so it counts as two chapters. Something went wrong in the company today. I went on a business trip in the morning and didn’t come back until after eight o’clock in the evening.
Also, some comments and explanations in the future will be put into the author's words, so as to avoid writing a single chapter and affecting the coherence of everyone's reading of the book.
Chapter 47 was banned for some reason, and I didn’t write anything. I just wrote about a hero saving a beauty, explained a little bit, and said I was shehei...
