Back in the office, Zhou Jimin checked the work of the four kings, explained their work, and then went next door.
I found Lao Jiang and told him about asking for leave and leaving get off work early, and then he ran away.
Shen Fang and the others are so envious.
She muttered behind Zhou Jimin, asking him to bring more meat back tomorrow.
Since we can’t go out to celebrate, we can only do the same thing as last time.
After leaving the steel rolling mill, Zhou Jimin went straight to the department store.
The department store is the largest daily necessities department store with the most complete variety and quantity of merchandise in Beijing.
As soon as he reached the door, someone blocked his way.
"Comrade, there is something good, do you want to know about it?"
The man's eyes were rolling around, and while he was observing the surroundings, he was selling products to Zhou Jimin in a low voice.
This sales method is very similar to the vendors at the entrance of the train station.
It's just that the person in front of me didn't dare to yell loudly.
He was even afraid that Zhou Jimin might speak loudly and attract the attention of Red Armband.
"What?"
Zhou Jimin was also a little curious. It was so rampant. Could it be that the Pigeon Market couldn't satisfy those people's appetites?
"I'll just give you a look." The young man took out something from his pocket and opened his palm. Zhou Jimin's eyes widened.
The young man seemed very satisfied with Zhou Jimin's reaction.
He could not help but continue to whisper proudly:
"You've never seen this thing before, have you? It's a foreign product, and it's something that only foreign celebrities and nobles can afford..."
The other party boasted for a while, and Zhou Jimin almost blushed.
Damn it, the street stall goods are said to be valuable items in the hands of foreign celebrities and nobles. They are so tall that they have no friends.
The lighter in the young man's hand was clearly the product Zhou Jimin had sold to the stone young man in Pigeon Market.
At that time, he sold a thousand pieces in total, and the cost price was five yuan.
"How much?"
Coming back from his reverie, Zhou Jimin quickly asked for the price.
The other party extended a slap, and Zhou Jimin's face started to heat up again, and he asked uncertainly: "Five dollars?"
This seemed to have stepped on a sore spot for the young man, and he almost jumped.
But in front of him was the door of the department store. The young man suppressed his emotions again and said in a low voice:
"Comrade, you are really good at joking. This is a foreign product. How can it be only five yuan? It is fifty yuan!"
For a moment, Zhou Jimin’s face was filled with excitement.
Damn, in terms of ruthlessness, he is not as good as that stone young man.
In later generations, lighters that only cost one or two yuan were sold for sky-high prices in this era of scarcity.
Fifty yuan is equivalent to more than two months’ wages of Zhou Jimin’s apprenticeship.
Are you going to die?
"It's too expensive, please keep it for the next person."
After that, Zhou Jimin crossed the other side and left.
The young man seemed very unwilling, but did not continue to pester.
Admittedly, selling a lighter for fifty yuan is a bit unthinkable.
After all, a box of matches only costs two cents a box.
In the 1960s, in a country where life was pretty good, within a few years of the introduction of disposable lighters, the price was 5,000 yen each.
Equivalent to 250 yuan, this amount of money is enough for Qin Huairu's family's living expenses for more than half a year.
At that time, the price of domestic kerosene lighters was only more than ten yuan.
Therefore, never underestimate the mentality of a rich man to show off his wealth, nor the ability of a salesperson.
Some people just like to make the impossible possible and do what they say.
When Zhou Jimin walked into the department store, he still couldn't laugh or cry.
When he and Shitou Youth were discussing the price before, they were slapped in the face. He wanted to sell it for 50 cents, but was misunderstood by the other party as 5 yuan.
But at that time, he was still worried about the stone youth for a while.
Now it seems that his worries are indeed unfounded.
After getting rid of these thoughts, he went straight to the container selling bicycles.
There are four major bicycle brands in this era, Shanghai's Forever and Phoenix, and Tianjin's Feige and Hongqi.
However, in terms of load-carrying capacity, we have to look at Qingdao’s national defense brand, which later became the Big Golden Deer, which is the favorite of Shandong people.
"Hello, comrade, I want to buy this bicycle. Please help me push it out."
After watching for a while, Zhou Jimin pointed to the Phoenix women's bicycle and said.
The salesperson Liang Meifang is a beautiful girl. Seeing that Zhou Jimin is a handsome guy, her tone is a little softer, completely different from the loud voice just now.
"Is it this bike? Do you have a bicycle ticket? One hundred and thirty yuan, is it for your sister or sister?"
Zhou Jimin was stunned, "Do I need to specify who it is for when buying a car? Does it have to be for my older sister or younger sister?"
What's breaking the rules?
"What? That's not possible?" Liang Meifang glared and said fiercely.
"Hey, you lesbian, does your husband know that you are so aggressive?"
"What does it have to do with you? And I'm not married. Do you want to ruin my reputation?"
"How dare you? You are so beautiful, gentle and generous. Here are the bicycle tickets and money. Please count them."
During the conversation, Zhou Jimin also roughly understood that all the salespersons here are probably the same thing, aggressive and loud!
He must have been forced by work.
In just a short period of time, Zhou Jimin saw several people who were just looking at the car but not buying it. The sales truck was so angry that it was filled with smoke.
This is not the era of later generations. I saw a car and refused to buy it. I even compared the products in front of you. After struggling for several months, I finally decided to place an order online. Are you angry?
Here, the comrades who dare to do this are not even born yet.
Liang Meifang counted the money, checked the ticket, and pushed the bicycle to him.
She still couldn't hold it back and asked more: Who did you buy it for?
"I bought it for my fiancée." Zhou Jimin said casually.
To be precise, it should be bought for Zhou Shuqing. After all, the car I bought for her before is now being ridden by Ding Qiunan.
The reason why Zhou Jimin bought Ding Qiunan a car was not because he had too much money.
I was purely moved by this girl.
Since the two established their relationship, apart from not staying at his house at night and not eating breakfast at his house, there is no difference between her and marrying into his house.
This little girl doesn't care about her own reputation, she just follows him without getting a certificate, and she also gives him all the college subsidies and so on. He can't remain indifferent.
Since he regards the other person as family, he is naturally not a stingy person.
Therefore, as soon as Lao Yang received the reward, he took action immediately.
When Liang Meifang heard this, she suddenly felt panicked.
It’s all my fault for being a bitch, the deal has been completed, why are you still asking more questions?
Fiancée?
I wish you two a speedy breakup!
Looking at Zhou Jimin's sullen back, Liang Meifang silently blessed her in her heart.
What a waste of time for such a nice guy.
After pushing his bicycle out of the department store, Zhou Jimin saw the young man selling lighters again.
The latter is currently working hard to sell to an uncle and a young girl.
The uncle and the girl are dressed in extraordinary clothes, and they look like they are rich.
After some communication, the young man directly sold ten lighters and earned 500 yuan.
This order alone will be enough for his salary in the next few months.
How about making money by doing this instead?
Although the work is not dignified, I really don’t have to worry about food and drink.
Zhou Jimin stood aside and watched for a while, shook his head, laughed, and rode away.
