A single sheet can sell for more money than an average person earns in a lifetime, let alone a whole sheet!
She forced herself to suppress her inner elation and excitement, and tried her best to make her voice sound steady.
"Comrade, these stamps of yours... are all quite nice."
She casually flipped through the pages, her fingertips tracing the beautifully printed patterns, feeling the unique texture.
Each one represents a huge amount of future wealth.
The woman glanced at her, gave a nonchalant "hmm," and picked up her knitting needles again.
"These are all leftovers from before. You can tear off whichever one you want. It's eight cents a piece."
Su Wantang knew that these stamps were extremely precious because of the special era they were issued in, and later a large number of them were consumed and destroyed.
I never imagined that so much would be stored in this small military post office!
These aren't stamps, they're stacks of banknotes!
If you're going to buy, you have to buy them all!
Once you miss this opportunity, you'll never have another chance!
Su Wantang chuckled, "Comrade, may I buy a few more? My elders at home enjoy stamp collecting, and I'd like to buy some to give to them as a gift."
This reason is very valid.
In this day and age, stamp collecting is a legitimate hobby.
Sure enough, the woman merely raised her eyelids slightly upon hearing this.
"Go ahead and buy them. How many do you want?"
Su Wantang smiled and said, "How many do you have left? If not many, can I buy them all?"
The woman frowned. "You want them all?"
"That's a lot of money, several yuan for a single sheet."
Su Wantang nodded, her eyes filled with sincerity: "Yes! I want them all!"
As she spoke, she took money out of her pocket.
"Okay, you wait here." The woman took out several more stamp albums from under the counter, all of the same series.
"It's all here. Count it yourself, and give me the money when you're done."
Su Wantang's heart started beating even faster.
There are actually several more!
She lowered her head and pretended to count the bills one by one seriously.
The initial design of "The whole country is red" and various quotations on tickets are all available!
Su Wantang took out the money and handed it to her, saying, "I'll take all of these."
"Alright, here you go." The woman counted the money after taking it and said.
Su Wantang looked at the thick stack of stamps that had been scrambled over and felt like she was dreaming.
She carefully wrapped the stamps layer by layer with the handkerchief she always carried with her and put them into her pocket.
The women watching this just grimaced.
Is this the capitalist's wife of Commander Lu?
That's such a waste!
Twenty-odd yuan, enough for a family to eat for a month, and all they got in return was this pile of scraps of paper?
A woman like that is simply not good at managing a household!
Commander Lu is in for a rough time marrying a woman like that!
After leaving the post office, Su Wantang went to the military service center.
She planned to buy some local specialties from the island and mail them to Wei Juan.
The service center has a wide variety of daily necessities as well as some local specialties.
For example, dried fish, dried squid, shrimp chips, coconut chips, etc.
Su Wantang bought two packs of dried fish, two packs of dried squid, two packs of shrimp chips, two packs of coconut chips, and two large coconuts.
These only cost 2 yuan in total.
After making the purchase, Su Wantang planned to mail the letter and the package together to Wei Juan.
Wei Juan had told her before that Wei Zhentian was not her biological father...
She always felt that Zheng Feng and Wei Juan might have some connection. (This chapter has been read. Please click to continue reading the next chapter!)
