It takes about three hours to get from Anshi to the provincial capital by train. When they arrived at the provincial capital, it was the busiest time in the morning.
However, there were not many people at the train station. After leaving the station, a few people directly called a bullock cart and headed straight for the guesthouse in the city center.
After everything in the room was arranged, everyone prepared to go out for a walk.
In this era, the three colors of black, white and gray are basically everywhere, even Harbin, the capital of Heilongjiang Province, is no exception.
Compared with Anshi, the roads are probably wider and the houses are neater.
The streets of the provincial capital are basically lined with multi-story buildings.
Of course, I haven’t seen more than three floors!
The schedule in the provincial capital is not as tight as in Anshi.
This is the time when children go to school and workers go to work, and there are many pedestrians coming and going on the road.
There are many more people riding bicycles than in Anshi, and a car passes by from time to time.
Lin Manman and her companions had witnessed the prosperity of later generations, and could only describe it in four words - nothing special.
The Mao brothers were from Beijing and were children of wealthy families, so naturally they didn't have any special feelings about these things.
So none of the embarrassing scenes that Mao Chenxu had imagined happened.
"Where are we going now?" he asked.
Everyone decided to come here on a whim, and there really wasn't any specific plan.
A few people looked at each other, and finally Gu Chongshan decided to go to the state-owned restaurant for breakfast first.
They set out early, and each of them only ate two eggs and drank a cup of hot water in the morning.
I have no food in my stomach right now. I smell the aroma of food coming from the state-owned restaurant not far away, and I suddenly feel hungry.
Heilongjiang Province is the northernmost province of Huaguo. It mainly eats noodles. The breakfast in state-owned restaurants basically consists of noodles and steamed buns.
Of course, meat buns are the most popular, because there is a shortage of oil and water in this era.
The seven of them ordered three bowls of pickled cabbage and shredded pork noodles, two bowls of tomato and egg dumpling soup, and ten meat buns.
Such a big move attracted many customers to turn their attention to them.
Even though this is the provincial capital, most of the people here are ordinary people, and few can afford to have such a luxurious breakfast!
Of course, except for those capitalists!
At this time, capitalists still existed and were active in major provinces and cities. The level of their daily luxury was something most people could not imagine!
But Lin Manman and her group were dressed in a low-key manner, and anyone with a discerning eye could tell that they were ordinary people.
Naturally, such a large sum of money might be a little surprising.
I have to say that at this time, pure natural ingredients without any food additives are the best!
The group of people ate so much that their bellies were full!
After you have eaten your fill, it is time to digest the food.
So, the group went straight to the department store, ready to digest the food by shopping.
They brought all kinds of bills with them on this trip, all of which were specially exchanged by Mao Erge so that they could spend more efficiently.
Their destination was the largest department store in the city center, which was three stories high and covered a large area.
After the group entered, they found that there were already quite a few people inside.
Is this thing free?
Or did everyone in the provincial capital become rich overnight?
When Lin Manman "caught" someone and asked, she found out that the soap was on sale today and could be bought without a ticket.
On weekdays, soap requires soap tickets to purchase, and it is a limited commodity.
I finally don't need the ticket, but if I round it up, it's like it's free, right?
At that time, people's lives were inseparable from soap. Most people used soap directly to wash their hair, wash their faces, and take a bath.
Isn't soap a necessity?
Lin Manman and her group were not interested in this. They had no shortage of soap, and even had more high-end soap, shower gel, shampoo...
The group walked away from the crowd and went directly to counters with few customers, such as the counters selling tobacco and alcohol.
Gu Chongshan couldn't take his eyes off the row of Moutai liquor!
Moutai liquor at this time is of great collection value!
If I could save up a room full of Moutai...
I'm going to make a fortune!
"Are you going to buy or not? If not, please leave quickly and don't block the way of other customers!" the teller said rudely.
Seeing her tone, everyone rolled their eyes.
Who are you looking down on?
Although they knew that the teller was looking down on others, they did not make a fuss.
Even Lin Manman, who was the most impulsive, silently suppressed her anger.
There was no way. She didn't think she was the heroine in the book, who would have an outburst on the spot when encountering such things.
You have no background and no backing, who are you trying to show off to?
Complaint?
She didn't think that she, a person with little influence, could have any substantial impact on those with stable jobs with just one word.
The best way is to slap her in the face with actual actions!
Probably because this counter is quite large, there are two tellers assigned here.
In addition to the female teller who spoke rudely and drove them away, there was another female teller who stood by silently.
Lin Manman walked over and said, "Beautiful sister, can you help us get these bottles of Moutai? We want them all!"
Which girl doesn’t like being called beautiful?
Anyway, Lin Manman has never encountered it!
Bai Yuyu was originally standing there in a daze. When she confirmed that Lin Manman was talking to her, she was stunned for a moment.
She was not as good at talking as Gao Caixia, so most of the customers at the counter were snatched away by Gao Caixia.
Their counter is quite special, they don't just receive a fixed salary.
Because cigarettes and alcohol are relatively expensive, not many people buy them on weekdays.
In order to sell more cigarettes and alcohol, the manager will give them commissions based on their performance.
When most people come, they are used to buying from Gao Caixia, and she can only envy them silently.
So, when Lin Manman and her group came, she naturally thought that Bai Yuyu would receive them, and she could only stand by in silence.
When Lin Manman was talking to her, Gao Caixia felt as if she had been struck by lightning.
She was so surprised!
In fact, Lin Manman and her group were dressed quite well, but the problem was that they had been looking at it for too long!
Bai Yuyu thought that they were just looking but not buying, and were delaying her from selling goods without any money, so she shouted to drive them away.
After hearing Lin Manman's words, Gao Caixia was so surprised, and Bai Yuyu felt so regretful!
"What's wrong? Beautiful sister, can't I buy it?" Lin Manman asked.
Gao Caixia came to her senses and quickly explained, fearing that she would accidentally miss this big order!
"No! No! Don't get me wrong, I'm just surprised! Do you want all the Moutai liquor? This liquor... is a bit expensive!" she said.
