Chapter 12 Crazy Shopping (2/2)



After buying the watch, Jiang Si went down the stairs to the daily necessities counter on the second floor.

If there was one thing that Jiang Si could not accept the most after traveling through the book, it was probably that there were no sanitary napkins in this era.

Especially for someone like her who has a heavy period, every time she has her period it’s a living hell!

Facing the shocked look of the salesperson, Jiang Si bought all the toilet paper and sanitary tape.

You should also buy more soap for bathing and washing your hair.

She remembered that the book seemed to mention that the first shampoo in China was not launched until the late 1970s.

The Friendship Store does have shampoos from abroad, but ordinary people can’t buy them and don’t dare to buy them.

Oh, and there’s also vanishing cream!

Qiongzhou Island is surrounded by the sea and the ultraviolet rays are quite strong. If you don’t apply something before going out, you will be tanned into charcoal in a few days.

There is no woman who doesn't love beauty, and Jiang Si is no exception!

The ones I chose are the most popular ones on the market, including Shanghai Woman, Ya Shuang, Pechoin, Friendship, and Shuang Mei. I got five boxes of each!

Next are toothpaste, toothbrushes, soap, laundry detergent, prickly heat powder, toilet water, and mosquito nets. These are the most commonly used items in weekdays and summer, so you must buy them!

Slippers, sandals, and white shoes, three pairs of each!

I got five sets of pure cotton underwear! I wanted to buy more, but her size was out.

Since I was already here, I bought some raincoats, rain boots, and umbrellas, and also picked out a few woven straw hats.

Jiang Si did not buy iron kettles, enamel basins, and aluminum lunch boxes. She put all the things at home into the space and there was enough for them.

"Could you please help me calculate how much it is, comrade?"

The salesperson swallowed and said, "Comrade, you're buying so much?"

Jiang Si smiled and nodded: "Yes, I brought some for my classmates."

Anyway, there is no purchase limit, so it is her freedom to buy as much as she wants. As for what the salesperson thinks, it is completely out of her consideration.

After buying these, Jiang Si went to the grocery counter next door.

She asked for 5 kilograms of brown sugar and 2 kilograms of each kind of pastries. She was not used to drinking malted milk, so she ended up buying a few bags of Red Star milk powder.

I had never wanted to buy White Rabbit milk candy because it was mentioned in every article about that era. Jiang Si was also quite curious about the difference between the White Rabbit of this era and the later ones, so I bought less.

She spent more than an hour shopping, and only after she had used up all the bills she had on her body did Jiang Si walk out of the department store satisfied.

I looked at the time and it was already past five in the afternoon.

After finding an empty corner, Jiang Si put all her things into the space. Her last stop was to go to the black market!

In Shanghai, there is one black market in the early morning and one in the evening, and each market lasts about two hours.

There is no need to worry about security issues. People in this industry have people above them. To put it bluntly, they have all paid protection fees.

They know exactly when to crack down.

Moreover, the person in charge of this film used to work with Uncle San.

Otherwise, Jiang Si would not dare to take the risk to go to such a place.

There was no need to disguise herself, as the outfit she was wearing now was the most common white shirt and black pants of this era.

Put on the straw hat you just bought and stand in the crowd. I guarantee no one will recognize you.

Half an hour later, Jiang Si went to the address.

This black market is quite big. There are no fixed stalls inside, so you have to find what you want on your own.

Jiang Si walked around inside twice and finally found the place where chicks and ducks were sold.

The price is okay, a chick is 2.5 yuan each, a duckling is a little more expensive, 5 yuan each, and the most expensive is the piglet!

This kind of fish has been raised for more than two months, and the price of one is about 20 yuan.

As for raising small animals, either don’t keep any, or keep at least two.

Jiang Si bought two of each item and specifically instructed that they should be one for the waist and one for the back.

There is no need to have too much. After all, the food and vegetables in the space are all fed by spiritual springs. The chickens, ducks and pigs will definitely grow faster after eating them than outside.

Worried that they would wander around in the space, Jiang Si also bought a lot of bamboo fences.

I plan to enclose a separate piece of land for them and let them grow freely there.

Going further in, there is a river with two or three people selling river fish next to it.

The three delicacies of the Yangtze River, mullet and hilsa, are no longer available in this season, but there are still many varieties sold here.

There are more than a dozen species of fish alone, as well as crabs and live shrimps!

Most people who come to Heilongjiang are here for hard currency such as fine grains, pork, and eggs. In comparison, aquatic products are not that popular.

Seeing this, Jiang Si bought them all!

When I returned to the space again, an hour had passed.

Seeing that the fish pond had been fully dug, Jiang Si quickly put the fish she had just bought into it.

He took another look at the seeds he had sown and clicked [One-click watering].

The next step is to find a suitable place to build the bamboo fence.

While Jiang Si was busy transforming the space, on the other side, Lin Yueru's nephew Lin Baozhu and a few of his cronies finally took action!
