(Novel complete) She suddenly returned to a time before the apocalypse. Chu Tianhua spent her entire fortune collecting resources, ensuring she had everything for eating, wearing, and daily use, fi...
The pickles, Erba sauce, Daoxiangcun snacks and other specialties specially supplied by the supply and marketing cooperative in Beijing City do not require any tickets, as long as you have money, you can buy them. However, Erba sauce and snacks both require tickets. Fortunately, when he was collecting old items from others yesterday, he spent money and exchanged a lot of tickets with others.
"Comrade, how are these four flavors of pickles sold?"
The salesperson from Beijing City noticed that Chu Tian's accent wasn't from Beijing, so he became rather arrogant. He looked Chu Tian up and down and asked calmly, "They're all 30 cents a pound."
No matter when, for many people, having a Beijing household registration is something worth showing off, so Chu Tian didn't care about her attitude at all, but asked.
“How do you pack?”
The salesperson frowned, "What?"
Chu Tian patiently asked, "I want to ask, after I buy it, how will it be packaged? In a jar? Or with oil paper?"
The salesperson rolled his eyes, but seeing the director standing nearby, he patiently replied, "The oil paper is free, and the jars come in large, medium, and small sizes. The large one can hold 10 jin (approximately 50 kg) and costs 80 cents each. The medium one can hold 8 jin (approximately 50 catties) and costs 50 cents each. The small one can hold 5 jin (approximately 50 kg) and costs 30 cents each."
Chu Tian thought for a moment after hearing this and said, "I bought a lot, can you give it to me as a gift?"
The salesperson's originally impatient expression froze, "What?"
Chu Tian took a deep breath and said, "I bought a lot. Can you help me deliver it to the guesthouse in the suburbs of Beijing?"
The salesperson had never heard of this request before, and she looked at the director not far away in confusion.
The director heard the conversation between the two and was also stunned. Buy a lot? He thought about how much he could buy. Thinking of the more than 5,000 kilograms of pickles that had been delivered to the warehouse a few days ago, he thought for a moment and walked over.
"Comrade, how much do you need?"
Chu Tian thought for a moment and said, "Can I have as many as I want?"
The director nodded, "Of course, as long as you have enough money!"
"How many jars do you have? Count all the big, medium and small ones together!"
Chu Tian was amused when he heard this, and thought to himself that although the director's words were direct, it had to be said that what he said was the truth!
Upon hearing this, the director looked at the salesperson. The salesperson reacted and quickly turned around to verify, and soon came back.
"Director, we have a total of one hundred large jars in our warehouse, one hundred and twenty medium ones, and one hundred and fifty small ones!"
Chu Tian nodded, looked at the director and said, "Then calculate how many pickles these jars can hold!"
"What?"
The director and the salesperson were both stunned. After a long time, seeing Chu Tian's unquestionable expression, they nodded stiffly.
Finally, after calculating the amount, Chu Tian paid the full amount and spent the dozen or so dim sum tickets and Erba Sauce tickets he had exchanged for. The director then asked Chu Tian to go to the office and wait.
"Thanks."
Chu Tian took the water he poured for him and drank two sips.
“How long will it take?”
The director sat down opposite Chu Tian, thought for a moment and said, "It will probably take four or five hours!"
Chu Tian subconsciously glanced at his watch when he heard this. He found that it was already past five o'clock, so he frowned and asked, "Does it take that long?"
The director nodded. "You want a lot. We have to send someone to the warehouse to clean the jars before we can start filling them, so..."
Chu Tian rubbed his temples with a headache. He had already made an appointment with Chu Min and he definitely couldn't stand him up. After thinking for a moment, he suggested, "How about this? I have something to do today and can't wait. You guys can help me pack it up slowly. I'll come over around mid-afternoon tomorrow. You can lend me a cart and I can push it away myself."
The director was stunned for a moment. "It's no problem to lend you the cart, but I estimate you'll have to make about twenty trips."
"It's okay, I can push it myself, you guys just help me install it. It's getting late, I'll leave now."
Chu Tian stood up and was about to say goodbye. The director thought about it and asked.
"Well, I want to ask, why do you buy so many things at once?"
Chu Tian said calmly, "We were sent by troops from other places to Beijing to purchase supplies."
With just this one sentence, the director suddenly realized that their supply and marketing cooperative had indeed often encountered military buyers before, so he nodded repeatedly.
"I see. Don't worry, I'll personally watch over it tomorrow and make sure it's installed properly for you. I won't be shortchanged."
Chu Tian smiled slightly when he heard this, "Of course I believe you, after all, we are all serving the people!"
Chu Tian hurried back to the guesthouse and happened to meet Chu Min who had just returned. The two looked at each other and went back to the room together. Chu Min put away the things he had collected, and Chu Tian changed into clean clothes. Then they walked together towards the largest state-owned hotel in the city.
"Brother-in-law?"
"Brother Min?"
Chu Tian and Chu Min had just finished eating and were about to leave when they suddenly heard someone calling them. They followed the voice and saw Li Jianmin and Yao Xiuli walking towards them.
"Xiu Li? Jian Min? Why haven't you two turned back yet?"
Li Jianmin smiled and pointed to the open box not far away. "We have tickets for the day after tomorrow. We're going out for dinner with our family today! But, brother-in-law, why are you two here?"
Chu Tian explained briefly, and just when Yao Xiuli wanted to ask something, a man who looked about 40% like Li Jianmin, but looked very mature and steady, walked out of the box.
"Jianmin, sister-in-law, haven't you finished adding the dishes? Huaiyu will find you two later!"
As he spoke, he looked at Chu Tian and Chu Min, "Who are these two?"
Upon hearing this, Li Jianmin quickly introduced, "Second brother, this is the brother-in-law I told you about, who takes good care of me. This is his second brother. They are both from our Corps transport team. They came to Beijing this time to deliver supplies and happened to meet him."
"Brother-in-law, Brother Min, this is my second brother!"
Upon hearing this, Chu Tian, Chu Min and Li Erge hurriedly shook hands with each other.
Brother Li said enthusiastically, "Since we've met, why don't you go into the private room and have some more food?"
Chu Tian quickly refused, "No, no, we've already eaten. It's not appropriate to disturb you at this time. We won't bother you for now. If you don't mind, we'll pay you a formal visit tomorrow night!"
Seeing Chu Tian say this, Brother Li didn't force him. He thought for a moment and nodded, "Then where are you staying? I'll send someone to pick you up tomorrow night."
Chu Tian left an address and said goodbye to Chu Min.
