Chapter 21 Bobo Chicken
"Eggs?"
Chen Zhuyi and Ye Xumei looked at each other and realized that they had encountered the black market.
Such people had appeared in their own city before, so the two were not surprised and pulled the person to an empty corner.
Chen Zhuyi asked.
"What do you all have?"
There were too many people in the department store to get in, and there were a lot of things on the black market, so Chen Zhuyi didn't resist buying things there.
Seeing that the two were well-dressed, the visitor knew they were important customers. He pointed to the courtyard behind him with a smile and said, "We have everything that the department store has. We might also have something else that they don't have. Why don't you two go and take a look?"
Chen Zhuyi and the others knew the rules of the black market, nodded, and followed them in.
There is no need to be afraid that they are bad people. This yard is just a stone's throw away from the street. There are obviously households all around, and some people are sitting at the door to enjoy the cool air.
Real bad guys wouldn't dare live here at all; only the black market would choose this place as their location.
After walking into the yard and then into the house, the warmly dressed man took off his hat and mask to reveal his true face.
It turned out to be a young girl with short hair!
The girl no longer deliberately spoke in a low male voice. She lifted the tablecloth on the table in the room and asked crisply.
"Are you interested in these latest trendy things?"
Chen Zhu was a little surprised when he saw the shape of the table.
It is very similar to the jewelry display cabinets of later generations. The outside is made of glass, so you can see clearly what is inside.
Neat rows of rhinestone hairpins, earrings, necklaces, and bracelets.
Seeing Chen Zhuyi staring at the table, the girl introduced it with a smile.
"This is the jewelry cabinet I modified myself. It's more convenient for you to look at. If you need anything, I can take it out for you."
Ye Xumei stared at a light blue bracelet in the cabinet with some surprise.
“This is so beautiful!”
The girl looked at what Ye Xumei pointed at and said, "This is a bodhi string. The color is professionally processed. It is very rare and will not harm the body."
Ye Xumei was surprised: "Bodhi, I have only seen white and yellow ones, but there is also light blue one, it looks really good!"
The more Ye Xumei looked at it, the more he liked it.
"How much?"
"Sister, to be honest, I just got these jewelry back on the first day. You are my first customers, so I'll give you a new customer discount. The original price is five dollars, but now it's only three dollars. I'll also give you five freshly baked eggs, okay?"
Three dollars was enough to buy some clothes outside. Ye Xumei was a little hesitant. The girl looked between her and Shen Zhu and sighed.
"Sisters, five eggs cost fifty cents outside! How about this? I have another string of pink eggs here that I didn't take out. These two strings are sister pieces, so people can tell at a glance. And I guarantee there's absolutely no third string in the country right now. For both strings, I'll give you five more eggs, a total of ten. Since you're so pretty and I just opened the shop, I'll give you... five dollars for the total!"
Ye Xumei was a little moved when he heard the sister version, and when he heard there was no third string, he stopped hesitating.
"Get it!"
"Okay, sister, since you're so forthcoming, I'll give you two more duck eggs. This mechanism is truly unique to you."
Chen Zhu watched the whole process.
“…”
Why does this process look so similar to the sales talk used in live streaming that children in later generations watch on their mobile phones?
Looking at Ye Xumei's smile as he thought he had gotten an advantage, Chen Zhu stroked her forehead and was about to ask Ye Xumei not to spend money, but the girl stepped in front of her first.
"Wow, this sister is so pretty. Do you like hairpins? The sunflower design is very popular recently. Wearing it on your head makes you look more energetic, cute and playful."
"don't want."
"What about the necklace? A dried flower necklace, to preserve the flowers forever."
"don't want."
"That……"
The girl finally gave up.
"Well, it seems these things are not attractive enough to you. Next time you come, I promise to get you something you haven't seen before. Besides this, do you want eggs or something else? We have ingredients and daily necessities."
This time Chen Zhu nodded.
"Please give me a towel, a piece..." Chen Zhu read out the used things one by one.
I was planning to buy these at the department store, and the same goes for here.
After paying the money, Chen Zhu was interrupted by the girl and forgot about the bracelet. He and Ye Xumei left. When they were leaving, the girl stood at the door and waved happily at them.
"Goodbye, I'll treat you to Bobo Chicken next time you come!"
Chen Zhuyi suddenly remembered something he had liked to say as a child in his previous life, and blurted out, "Bobo Chicken for one yuan a skewer?"
After saying that, Chen Zhu reacted.
Nowadays, you can buy a whole chicken for one dollar. What nonsense is she talking about!
Chen Zhuyi felt a little embarrassed, so he pulled Ye Xumei away quickly, leaving the girl at the door standing there in a daze.
"How does she know about the one-yuan-a-skewer Bobo Chicken? Who is she? Why don't I remember such a person?" The girl frowned and wanted to chase after him to look for Chen Zhuyi, but she couldn't find him and could only go back in frustration.
Chen Zhuyi and Ye Xumei went to the state-owned restaurant to buy some meat buns. The boat arrived just in time, and they boarded the boat with their bags. They happened to meet two other male educated youth.
When Dong Wencai saw what was in Chen Zhu's hand, he frowned slightly, but said nothing and turned away.
After returning to the educated youth point, the two entered the house. Liu Zhaodi saw them and immediately came over to greet them.
"You're back." Liu Zhaodi said, her eyes kept looking at the things in their hands: "You bought so many things, I really envy you, I have never used soap in my life."
Ye Xumei exclaimed and spoke in confusion.
"Didn't Huang Cuicui give you one before?"
Liu Zhaodi's face froze and she smiled dryly.
"Maybe I remembered it wrongly. Can you finish all the buns you bought? It's so hot now. Wouldn't it be a waste if they go bad if you can't finish them?"
Ye Xumei shook his head.
"How could I not be able to finish it? I can eat it all when I get back from work tomorrow. Do you have anything else to do? If not, I'll just pack up."
Liu Zhaodi bit her lower lip and walked away hesitantly.
Chen Zhuyi never answered Liu Zhaodi's words.
Having lived two lives, she knew very well what kind of person Liu Zhaodi was. She came here just to take advantage of her. She followed Huang Cuicui before, but now she despises her bad reputation. As for such a person, Chen Zhuyi felt that she was even worse than Huang Cuicui.
After I packed up my things, a male educated youth suddenly came to the door.
“Shen Zhiqing, someone is looking for you.”
Chen Zhuyi was a little confused.
At this hour, is anyone still looking for her?
I stood up and went out, and as soon as I stepped out of the door, a bouquet of flowers was thrown in my face.
