Chapter 48 Another Idiot
"Comrade, let me be clear, this watch costs eight hundred yuan!"
Lin Xiyue made an eight with her index finger and thumb.
I thought Song Youyou would run away after hearing the price, but I didn't expect her to take out eight foreign exchange certificates with a face value of one hundred yuan without blinking.
Having completed the fastest transaction in history, Lin Xiyue had a lot of thoughts in his mind.
She sighed softly, "You bought this men's watch as a gift, right? Why would you give such an expensive watch to a man? 800 yuan can buy so many things..."
"What? This watch costs eight hundred dollars?!"
Before Lin Xiyue could finish her words, Song Baozhu, who had come over, interrupted her.
"The watch only costs a couple of hundred bucks at best, and you've got it inlaid with gold?!"
You have to know that a worker’s salary is only 20 to 30 yuan a month, and he has to save for a year to afford a watch worth 200 yuan.
The watch she was wearing was bought for her by her mother after she begged her for a long time.
"Even if it's made of gold, it shouldn't be worth eight hundred yuan." Song Baozhu didn't understand and was greatly shocked.
"Hey, how do you talk like that?"
As the saying goes, you can complain about your own things, but you can't complain about other people's things.
"Country bumpkin! Can you go and ask around? This brand of watch is hard currency! You know what hard currency is? It's worth money. Even if you sell it secondhand, the price will be high!"
If Lin Xiyue had some natural feelings for Song Youyou, she was not so polite to Song Baozhu.
It was this sharp voice that caused the commotion just now and affected her from waking up. She still remembers it now!
"...You, just say what you want to say, why are you doing this..."
Song Baozhu is a typical bully who only bullies the weak and fears the strong. When faced with someone who is more arrogant than her, she becomes a little timid and dares not to challenge him again.
Besides, it wasn't her decision to buy the watch, so whether it was expensive or not was none of her business.
On second thought, Song Baozhu actually felt happy about the misfortune:
"Don't even think about selling your watch. Song Youyou doesn't have the money to buy it. She doesn't even have a job right now, so how can she afford it?"
"?" Lin Xiyue gave her a strange look.
Song Baozhu thought the salesperson didn't believe her, so she emphasized, "I'm really not lying to you. My parents might not even be able to come up with 800 yuan, let alone her, and..."
Speaking of this, Song Baozhu laughed sarcastically:
"Song Youyou, is this your first time at the Overseas Chinese Store?"
"Yeah, what's wrong?"
Song Youyou didn't want to pay attention to Song Baozhu at first, but she was a little curious about what she wanted to say.
"Ha, as expected." Song Baozhu laughed.
"Song Youyou, you might not know this, but to buy things in this overseas Chinese store, you don't pay money, you have to pay foreign exchange coupons! It's really embarrassing! How dare you come here to buy things without foreign exchange coupons!"
Song Baozhu is now very happy.
A few days ago, when she came here to buy something for the first time, she didn't know there was such a thing as foreign exchange coupons, and was severely despised by the salesperson.
Now that she saw Song Youyou was the same as her, she couldn't express how happy and relieved she was.
"You can't get foreign exchange coupons just by having money!" Song Baozhu said in a preaching tone.
She made a fool of herself last time and cried for a long time at home. Only then did Song's mother spend several days and twice as much money to ask someone to exchange her for foreign exchange coupons before she dared to come here again.
"That's true." Song Youyou nodded in agreement.
This foreign exchange certificate is indeed not something that can be obtained by having money. She exchanged it on the black market by chance. Otherwise, it would be impossible to get it under normal circumstances.
Song Baozhu thought Song Youyou was admitting that she didn't have the coupon, and she was immediately extremely proud.
"Hey, you..."
"What do you mean by 'you'? I'm different from Song Youyou. I have foreign exchange coupons!"
Lin Xiyue was just about to say that Song Youyou had paid for everything, but before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Song Baozhu.
Then, with an arrogant look on her face, she took out a foreign exchange certificate with a face value of 10 yuan from her bag and slammed it on the counter.
"See? This is a foreign exchange coupon, and it has a face value of 10 yuan!" Song Baozhu raised her head proudly.
10 yuan was enough for her to buy a foreign coat to show off.
Lin Xiyue glanced at the 10-yuan foreign exchange certificate that Song Baozhu had generously placed on the counter, and then remembered how Song Youyou had just given her an 800-yuan certificate to buy a watch without any hesitation.
His expression was a little indescribable for a moment.
She glanced at Song Baozhu and wondered in her heart: Could this woman be a fool?
Song Baozhu thought that the salesperson here finally looked upon her with a higher regard, and she felt very proud.
"My parents both have good jobs. Our family is rich and has easy access to foreign exchange coupons. But she's different. She has no parents, let alone something as rare as foreign exchange coupons..."
The four words "no father and no mother" made Song Youyou's face suddenly turn cold.
She didn't care about other things, saying that she had no parents was crossing the line.
But before she could say anything, someone spoke before her:
"Comrade, how can you speak so harshly?"
The clattering sound of leather shoes stopped, and the person who came was Wei Changsheng, who was wearing a white shirt, black pants, and shiny leather shoes.
"Comrade Youyou, don't be afraid. I have foreign exchange coupons. I can help you."
As he spoke, he pulled out two 10-yuan foreign exchange coupons from his trouser pocket, slapped them on the counter, and said to the salesperson in a superior tone:
"Here are 20 yuan in foreign exchange certificates. Is that enough to pay my friend's bill?"
Lin Xiyue: “…” Damn, another idiot!
