Xia Jin was reborn, reborn at the time when her grandmother had just passed away when she was eighteen.
After rebirth, she realized she was living in a book, where the protagonist is her fami...
It costs ten cents per time, and people actually like to leave their cows here. Firstly, it is safer, so they don't bump into anyone inside.
As for receiving the ten cents, it was not a big deal. When some people came from the village, they would pull the people from the village who wanted to come to the town.
Everyone has to pay a fare, of course it’s not free, so it’s easy to earn that dime.
After walking such a long distance and pulling so many people, the cows were quite tired, so everyone was willing to let them rest here, drink some water and eat some grass.
After all, during this period, there were only a few households in the village that owned cows, and they all regarded cows as very important and treated them like partners.
After all, cows can be considered quite important livestock. They can help plow the fields, pull people, and pull things.
So everyone treats him as a partner, and he is very precious. After walking for such a long time, of course they should let him have a good rest.
And there is no need to worry about the cow being lost if it is stored here. If it is brought inside, it might be stolen when someone buys something.
Leave it here, don't be afraid. Although the old man doesn't like to talk to people and is weird, his eyesight is still very sharp. No one dares to steal the cow from him.
So overall, the dime is well spent. People who come to town are willing to park their cattle here, which makes the old man grumpy, but business is still good.
After parking the car and going down the well, they made an appointment with Gu Jingmo to meet there, and then they separated.
Gu Jingmo was going to the post office to send a telegram to those people in the capital. Xia Jin and his father and grandfather went to the store where they often sold agricultural products to inquire about plastic film.
Everyone has their own things to do, so in order to save time, they can only do this and wait until they gather at noon to discuss the afternoon's plans.
The place they agreed to meet for lunch was in front of a restaurant. After all, whether they found the place or not, they had to eat.
If we find it, everyone will be happy and this meal can be regarded as a celebration. If we don’t find it, we will just finish the meal and look for it again in the afternoon.
After watching Gu Jingmo leave, Xia Jin followed his grandfather to the stores selling agricultural and sideline products that they often went to.
The town is neither big nor small. In addition to the two state-owned farm tool stores, there are also private farm tool stores in the town.
However, these private stores are not big, just a small storefront with some agricultural and sideline products tools.
There are no big ones, and the items are not very complete, but there are indeed many things that state-owned enterprises do not have.
Many things are strange and exotic to these farmers, and they have never seen them before. They heard the store managers say that they were all brought from the south, but no one has seen them, so no one dares to buy them.
After all, no one has used it before, so who knows how to use it? If you buy it home and don’t know how to use it, then it would be a waste of money.
So few people would buy the things they brought from the south, but after Xia Jin heard what Grandpa Xia said, he felt that what he was looking for might be found in these private stalls.
However, she still followed her grandfather to the state-owned stores first. After all, these stores are large, with a wide variety of products and a complete range of goods, and you can find almost anything you want.
Another thing is that in the eyes of Grandpa Xia and others, state-owned enterprises mean that they will not cheat people. The reason why they dare not go private is because they are afraid of being cheated.
After all, how can a state-owned enterprise cheat people? They are all state-owned property. Who would dare to use these things to cheat people? But it is different for private small shops.
I don't know what they will take and pass off as good quality. If those things they buy break after using them twice, then they will have eaten them in vain. What a loss!
However, Xia Jin was not worried about these problems. Those stores had very little business all year round, so he was not worried at all that they would sell inferior products as good ones.
After all, they need to retain repeat customers. When a customer comes in, they have to bring out their best products and try to get them to come back to buy from them next time.
If this happened in the future, many shops might sell inferior products as good ones, as she saw. However, the current environment is like this, and no shop dares to sell inferior products as good ones.
People are still tough these days. If you really sell fake goods, you might get beaten up by the men in the whole village.
Moreover, if word of mouth spreads from one person to ten people, and from ten to a hundred people, your reputation will be ruined, and your family will be implicated, so no one will do such a stupid thing.
Xia Jin and his friends first went to the two state-owned agricultural implement factories, but after searching for a while, they didn't find what they wanted.
There is plastic film here, but it is the kind used to cover the crops to help them grow well and keep warm. It is too thin and does not meet Xia Jin's requirements.
He told the salesperson all the styles and designs he needed, but the salesperson kept shaking his head to indicate that they didn't have them.
"Little girl, you don't have to go anywhere else. If we don't have what you want, then we probably don't have it anywhere else in town."
"After all, our farm implement store is state-owned. It's the largest in town and has the most varieties. If we don't have it, then the other state-owned stores won't have it either."
"And that thing you mentioned, we've never seen or heard of it. Did you get scammed? There's no such thing. I've never heard of anyone using it."
"If you really put such a thick film on the ground, the seedlings would be crushed to death. How could they grow against the film?"
"I can tell from the looks of it that you're a kid who's never done farm work before. You don't know how to farm. If you don't believe me, go back and ask your grandfather and your father if that's the case."
After hearing what he said, Xia Jin smiled and said:
"I didn't buy it to cover the ground. I bought it for other uses, to cover other things. Let's go look at other houses."
"Maybe I can find it by then. I know this thing is really out of the way and probably no one would buy it, but I still want to try and see if I can find it."
"After all, that film has been around for years, so there must be something that thick. It's just that farmers probably don't use it, so they don't sell it here."
After hearing what he said, the man also smiled and said:
"Okay, go out and look for it, but I don't think you'll find it. If you can't find it, you can also look in the south."
"I heard they have a lot of things from abroad. You can go and take a look. Maybe they can find what you are looking for."
When Xia Jin heard her say this, he nodded to show that he understood. Since there was nothing for sale here, they were ready to leave.
