Chapter 279 Stamp Collecting
Tang Yue, carrying a backpack, stopped halfway, thinking that she would mail the property certificate this time and also bring some other things to send.
Thinking that Zhao Shengrui might be in need of something, like spiritual water or something like that, he packed some for him before he left. Moreover, he had mailed so many things to him half a month ago. If he sent him so many again this time, it would be too conspicuous, and all his loyal friends would stare at him.
I went to the post office, bought an envelope and a stamp, put the certificate directly into the envelope, sealed it, and put it in the mailbox at the door.
When I was about to leave, I suddenly thought of the stamps, so I went back to the post office and said to the staff next to me, "Zhi, the elderly in my family like to collect stamps. Please give me all the beautiful stamps you have. Thank you very much."
It was the first time that the staff heard that someone was buying so many stamps. They looked up curiously, and thought of the stamps that were gathering dust in the warehouse. The director had originally said that the old ones should be cleared out, and at this time a sucker happened to come by, so they would sell as many as they could.
"Bai Zhi, are you sure you want every one of them? There are too many types, so it might cost a lot of money!"
When Tang Yue heard that it was a lot, her eyes lit up. What she lacked most now was money, and she could earn back the money from the stamps tenfold or a hundredfold in the future, so she would not suffer any loss at all.
"Yes, the elderly at home like them very much, and it just so happens that I want to collect stamps with you, so I'd like to ask you to take two sets of each. Don't worry, I brought the money with me."
Since the customer is willing to pay, the staff doesn't care how much she buys. They are all things that need to be cleared out, so whatever can be sold is considered good.
"Wait here for a while. I'll go get it for you. It might take some time to find the things since they're piled together. Please wait a little longer."
"It's okay. I don't have anything to do. It's okay to wait a little longer."
Tang Yue felt that she could earn ten or a hundred times the profit by just waiting for a while. This deal was a great deal and she didn't feel that the wait was too hard at all.
About 20 minutes later, the staff came out with a stack of dusty stamps in his hands. When he put them on the table, dust flew up. Fortunately, he didn't walk too far ahead, otherwise he would have been arrested.
"Zhi, these are the types of stamps we have here. I've given you two sheets of each. Take a look and see if you need that many!"
Tang Yue looked at a thick stack of stamps, flipped through them, and found that the stamps were all from many years ago, and there were many stamps with portraits of great men.
Looking at so many commemorative stamps, Tang Yue was reluctant to let go of any of them. It seemed like there were a lot of them, but they were just different types. There were only two or three, or maybe three or four stamps in a sheet. She asked the staff directly.
"I want each one. Can you help me calculate how much it will cost?"
The staff member didn't expect that the female journalist opposite him was so rich. Fortunately, he could get some commission after selling it. "Okay, wait a moment, I'll calculate it for you right away."
After saying that, he took out an abacus from the side and slowly calculated one pair at a time. After all the prices were calculated, he multiplied them by two, and that was the price of two sets.
"Bai Zhi, the price is a bit high. A whole set is almost 300 photos. The price of Bi is a bit more expensive, and the price of Bi is a bit cheaper. The whole set is 128 yuan, and the total of two sets is 256 yuan. Are you sure you want it?"
The staff stared at Tang Yue closely, afraid that she would suddenly ask for it. After all, the price was really cheap, and for many people it was equivalent to more than a year's salary.
"Please help me pack them up. I'll pack both sets separately. I want both."
He pretended to take money out of the backpack, but in fact he took out a wallet from the space. There was about three or four hundred yuan in it. He counted out 256 yuan and handed it to the staff.
After the staff took the money, they counted it again. After confirming that there was no problem, they sent the wrapped stamps to Tang Yue, "Zhizhi, if you need new stamps in the future, do you need me to keep some for you?"
The staff saw that the female magazine was so generous, and thought that there were many new stamps every year, and this female magazine bought so many by herself, so they quickly established a relationship with her, which was considered a performance boost.
As expected, no matter what age you are, you are always introverted.
"Sure! Thank you, 땢志. Please keep it for 놖 first, and I will pay you when 놖 comes over."
Tang Yue did not refuse. She now has seven children in total. She just bought two sets, which was enough for them to share. She wanted to buy seven sets at once. She could only go to more post offices in the future. Of course, it would be best to buy locally because they all knew each other inside.
"Okay, then, walk slowly!"
Tang Yue waved at him, put the stamps into the backpack, put it into the space, and walked towards home.
I thought there didn't seem to be much meat at home, and I didn't know if there was still a lot of rice and flour. I wanted to bring some back, so I asked my parents-in-law and other elderly people to buy some.
Moreover, they bought too much rice and flour at once. People would not buy so much for you. You needed a grain book to sell grain to you. Everyone in the family was from the local area. Only Tang Yue moved her household registration back and could get grain every month. Others could only buy grain at a high price.
I spent more money, but the quality is not as good as the one in the space. It’s better to bring it back myself.
He would just go to a deserted place, put 100 jin of rice and flour in a cloth bag made in the processing workshop, put the flour in a sack, tie the bag with a rope, and use the stick he usually used as a shoulder pole, preparing to carry the food back home.
I then used a five-jin glass jar to fill it with a can of floral oil and another one-jin jar of sesame oil. Given how frugal my mother-in-law and her family were, how could they last for three months before I could take them home?
I put a slaughtered chicken on the backpack, preparing for the whole family to drink soup in the evening to replenish their bodies. After all, taking care of children is an easy job.
I added another five pounds of pork belly, and it seemed that my parents-in-law had lost weight. It might be because they ate too poorly. Of course, it was more likely because there were too many kids and they were too noisy, so they lost weight.
Tang Yue felt that the things she brought this time were far from enough. If she brought more, it would be easier to find excuses. She could only look around to see what was still missing at home and find a chance to bring some back next time.
I didn't feel the weight of the backpack and the load on my shoulders was heavy at all, but when I met people on the road I always pretended to be struggling to make myself look different.
As soon as I arrived at the door of my house, I saw a few big kids playing outside. When they saw Tang Yue coming back, they immediately surrounded her. Seeing her mother carrying a lot of bags, they quickly asked, "Mom, mom, did you bring anything delicious back for us?"
