Chapter 96 I want fifty kilograms of cotton. Do you have it?



In fact, it’s not just the salespeople who benefit.

Their superiors get greater benefits, so naturally they won't be punished.

Anyway, cotton is easy to sell, so the leaders above just turn a blind eye.

Therefore, if they wanted to buy cotton, they had to find someone working at the supply and marketing cooperative. It was an open secret in their town that cotton could only be purchased through them.

Lin Yizhen was not from the town and lived in a remote mountain village, so naturally she didn't know this secret.

After the salesperson told Lin Yizhen this secret.

He asked quietly, "Comrade, do you want to buy some? If so, I still have some unused cotton quotas, so I can give some to you."

When Lin Yizhen heard that she could buy cotton, she immediately became interested and asked, "Buy it. How many cotton indicators do you have left?"

"How much cotton do you want?" the salesperson said after looking around.

Hearing her words, Lin Yizhen guessed that this person must have some cotton indicators in his hands.

So, I plucked up the courage to say, "I want 50 kilograms of cotton. Do you have any?"

"How much? Fifty pounds?"

After hearing what Lin Yizhen said, the salesperson almost choked on his own saliva and it took him a long time to utter this sentence.

"Yes, fifty kilograms. There are many people in my family, and I want to make a set of cotton jackets and trousers for everyone in the family." When Lin Yizhen heard that she did not refuse, she nodded affirmatively.

“This…this is too much.

"Can you order less? I can get 10 or 20 kilograms." The salesperson said in a low voice, taking a look at the snacks in his hand.

Seeing her actions, Lin Yizhen roughly understood what was going on.

She took out another box of snacks from her previous purchases, placed it in front of her, and said, "Fifty kilograms is enough."

The salesperson saw it and happily took the box of snacks and put it together with the previous box and said, "Okay, fifty kilograms of cotton.

But you have to come back tomorrow. I need to talk to my boss."

Lin Yizhen nodded and said, "Let's come tomorrow!"

After Lin Yizhen made an appointment with the salesperson, she put her purchases into her pocket and left the supply and marketing cooperative with Qian Xiaoman.

They spent a lot of time shopping today, and by the time they rode their bikes back, it was already past three in the afternoon.

The sun had already set and the temperature was getting lower and lower. They had to hurry back, otherwise they would have to go back in the dark.

Although Lin Yizhen was not afraid, she was worried that Qian Xiaoman would be scared.

So, on the way back, Lin Yizhen rode her bicycle as fast as she could. The journey, which should have taken more than two hours, was shortened to just over an hour before she returned to the village.

When they arrived at the village, Lin Yizhen first sent Qian Xiaoman to the educated youth site.

Then, help her take the shopping off the bike.

Only then did he walk slowly towards his home.

After returning home, Lin Yizhen pushed the car into the kitchen and then went into the space to have dinner.

Now that she lives alone, she can come and go as she pleases. She can eat whenever she wants.

Xiaoyu came out of seclusion today and brought a battle flag to Lin Yizhen.

With this formation flag, Lin Yizhen can set up the formation by herself as long as she follows Xiaoyu's instructions. It's very convenient.

Lin Yizhen happily took it from Xiaoyu and thanked her, saying, "That's great. Thank you, dear Xiaoyu."

"We are one as master and pet. Helping the master is helping myself." Xiaoyu said indifferently.

After that, Xiaoyu paused and said, "Master, please have dinner! I will go back to the cave to rest for a few days."

"Okay, go back and have a good rest! If there's anything you need me to do, just call me." Lin Yizhen hugged Xiaoyu and said.

Xiaoyu rubbed Lin Yizhen's face with her head and said, "Okay, Master."

As she spoke, Xiaoyu used her spiritual power to support her body and flew into the air. After flying around the room, she left.

After Xiaoyu returned to the cave, Lin Yizhen started eating.

Because she didn't eat outside, Lin Yizhen ate more in the space and ate half a bowl of rice more than usual.

After eating, we went for a walk in the garden as usual, with Xianghe always by my side.

After walking around the garden twice, Lin Yizhen left the space to deliver food to the people in the cowshed.

I originally wanted to send the fabric and other things over as well, but then I remembered that I had to go to town to get cotton tomorrow.

I decided to send it over tomorrow along with the cotton. Cloth alone can't make a cotton-padded jacket without cotton. It would be better to wait until I get the cotton and send it over together, just to make everyone happy!

So, Lin Yizhen only delivered food today.

When they arrived at the cowshed, everyone inside was very happy to see Lin Yizhen coming.

The people in the cowshed knew about Lin Yizhen's move. Now that Lin Yizhen lived so close to them, it would be much more convenient if anything happened.

Moreover, there are no neighbors around Lin Yizhen's house. The nearest neighbor is also five minutes away.

The guys in the bullpen were happy with it.

From then on, it was much easier for them to find Lin Zhiqing.

The people in the cowshed decided that they would go over to help Lin the educated youth with farm work after work in the evening.

They saw that there was quite a bit of free land around Lin Zhiqing's house. As a city girl with little farm experience, she probably couldn't cultivate so much land.

However, the people in the bullpen did not tell anyone about this.

It was cold now, and the ground was frozen. There was no point in trying to plant the crops, and I was afraid Lin Zhiqing would refuse.

So, they decided to wait until next spring when they could plant the crops and then go there directly at night.

As for whether Lin Zhiqing would open the door, they had also considered it. At worst, they could just wait outside. Could Lin Zhiqing really let them wait outside forever?

Lin Yizhen still doesn’t know what the people in the cowshed are thinking.

She was now serving them rice and dishes one by one, and saw everyone lowering their heads to eat.

Lin Yizhen suddenly remembered that she had bought a lot of candies and snacks today and forgot to bring them with her, so she said goodbye to everyone and left with the bamboo basket.

Not long after, the basket was brought back.

When everyone saw her put the bamboo basket on the ground, they realized that the basket was now full of candies, snacks, and some other food.

Everyone was a little confused and stopped eating to look at Lin Yizhen.

Finally, it was the oldest grandfather who spoke up and asked, "Lin Zhiqing, what are you doing?"

"It's the New Year soon! I'll buy some New Year's goods for you." Lin Yizhen replied with a smile.

New Year's goods? They haven't heard the term for several years.

Since arriving here, they have been busy with work every day. Even during the Chinese New Year holidays, they have no time to think about preparing for the New Year.

Besides, even if they remembered, what would happen? They had no money or tickets, and they couldn't leave the village, so where could they go to prepare for the New Year's activities?

The past few years had felt longer than a lifetime to them. If they hadn't still held onto faith, they would have likely ended their lives like those people did back then.

Think about those who came here with them, and then think about how they left in the end.

Everyone sighed in unison.

Seeing that everyone was in a bad mood, Lin Yizhen thought that they were not satisfied with the things she gave them.
