"Linlin, Linlin, wake up. Come and see what delicious food your sister just bought."
After being woken up, Fang Zhilin didn't cry or make a fuss. He was a very well-behaved child. He put on his clothes obediently, washed his face and woke up.
"Apple, sister, did you buy these apples?"
"Yes, but Linlin, you have to keep it a secret. You can't tell anyone else about this, otherwise my sister will be in danger. Got it?"
Fang Zhilin nodded obediently. Fang Zhiyi looked at him like this and handed him an apple with a smile. His hands were small, so he needed two hands to hold the apple.
"Sister, this apple looks good and smells good. It's much better than the one mom bought me before. It looks delicious at first glance."
"Then I'll help you cut the apple and eat it. Try it and see if it's sweet."
Fang Zhilin heard her say this and shook his head and said:
"Sister, let's go buy some food first and eat it in the evening." Fang Zhilin had never seen such a beautiful apple before. The ones he had eaten before all had all kinds of problems on them.
Either there is a scar here or it is wilted. It looks delicious. Although he is young, he is not stupid. He is reluctant to eat such a good thing.
Seeing him like this, Fang Zhiyi nodded helplessly, thinking that he still had to make more money, so that his brother would not be like this.
Although Fang Zhiyi and his family lived in a large courtyard, it was also surrounded by walls. This large courtyard had several courtyards and was previously owned by some wealthy family.
There is a small door in front of each courtyard, and they come in from here every time. Of course, they have to close this door when they go out.
After they moved in, they also did some renovations. It was inconvenient for two families to enter through one door, so they opened a door on the other side and sealed off the middle. This way, the two families would not affect each other.
Fang Zhiyi closed all the doors inside and outside, and then took the pocket money of the original owner that she found yesterday, as well as the three dollars left outside by the original owner's parents.
The original owner didn't save much money, only one dollar and twenty cents. She didn't want to use it at first, but she had no choice. She had just arrived and had no way to make money, so she had to use it.
I can make up for it when I earn money later. Fortunately, they left some money outside and the 420 yuan they had before, otherwise they might have to use compensation.
At this time, most things require tickets, so Fang Zhiyi did not forget to bring the ticket with him. Although he had placed it in her space before, he couldn't take it out in front of others.
It is not convenient to take out all kinds of tickets when they are put together, so when buying things, you can't always find them, which makes it easy for thieves to steal them.
Fang Zhiyi was thinking about what she wanted to buy, so she took a pastry ticket, a tofu ticket, and a grain ticket worth one kilogram. Fang Zhiyi didn't know how many kilograms of grain each ticket could be exchanged for, so she decided to give it a try.
Buying vegetables should not require a ticket, but since she didn't find any vegetable tickets among those tickets, she decided to go to the vegetable market like this.
In addition to this one catty of food coupons, there were still 81 catties of food coupons left at home, and Fang Zhiyi carefully kept them all.
After getting everything, the two of them went straight to the supply and marketing cooperative, which was not far from their home and only took half an hour to walk there.
In order to get familiar with the route, Fang Zhiyi did not take the bus this time. The two of them walked there. It was because the supply and marketing cooperative was not far away that she said she wanted to go to work there.
Although Fang Zhiyi did not have the original owner's memories, she remembered the description in the book, and the sign of the supply and marketing cooperative was big and could be seen from a long distance.
It took them a while to reach the supply and marketing cooperative. There were buildings everywhere here, and the supply and marketing cooperative was a small three-story building. The first floor usually sold things that everyone could use.
The second floor is for large items like bicycles, and the third floor is for offices. The supply and marketing cooperative is very large, and despite its appearance, there are still a lot of people inside.
There is not only one supply and marketing cooperative in the city, there are two in other locations. If there were only this one, it would definitely not be able to handle it all, with so many families in the city.
Fang Zhiyi had never been to a place like this before, so he was very curious. As soon as he entered the door, he started looking around, curious about everything.
It may be because of their stable job, those employees have bad tempers and are very impatient.
But it's really lively here. Some people come in groups, discussing what they want to buy, and some people bring things from their homes to exchange for money.
After looking for a while, Fang Zhiyi started buying her things. She first exchanged them for some food. What she wanted was white flour. She would not treat herself badly when it came to food.
Only then did she realize that a catty was only one catty. There were two kinds of white flour, so she asked for the cheaper standard flour. She was curious about the rich flour, but couldn't resist its high price, so Fang Zhiyi had to give up.
A pound of white flour cost him 18 cents, and he also bought a pound of tofu for 10 cents. Fang Zhiyi didn't expect tofu to be so expensive, but when he thought about it, it was made of beans, he understood.
After buying these things, seeing Fang Zhilin's eyes were always looking at the white box at the door of the supply and marketing cooperative, Fang Zhiyi pulled him over.
Although he had never seen it, he had heard of it and knew that it was selling popsicles. Seeing that the child wanted to eat it so much, of course he had to satisfy her, and he still had a few cents to spend.
Fang Zhiyi would never say that it was because she wanted to taste the flavor of the popsicle from the 1970s. Fang Zhiyi asked for a cream ice cream for him and a mung bean popsicle for herself, spending 13 cents, but fortunately it didn't require a ticket.
After paying, the two people took their purchases and left the supply and marketing cooperative. One of them was licking a popsicle, making him the envy of all the children passing by.
Fang Zhilin was walking in front, jumping and skipping, looking very happy. Children are young and don’t understand many things, so they were able to come out so quickly.
The two of them took these things and went to buy vegetables. In fact, the place where vegetables were sold was next to the supply and marketing cooperative, also in the house, like the counter of the supply and marketing cooperative. Some vegetables today were placed on the counter.
Fang Zhiyi looked at the vegetables on the counter and selected four tomatoes, two cucumbers and a cabbage. Actually, there were not many options to choose from, there were only those few.
In the end, he spent 28 cents and went home after buying things. After returning home, Fang Zhiyi looked at how many things he had bought, but he didn't even spend a dollar.
He finally had an idea of what money is like nowadays. He only knew that money was valuable before, but he didn't know it was so durable. With such a small amount of money, he could buy so many things. As a modern person, he was really happy.
