"Xiao Lin, you're back." Yan Fugui was still at the door, as if this was his Feng Shui treasure land.
"Yeah, I'm back." Lin Tian replied.
"Director Wu informed us today that we can start buying winter vegetables starting the day after tomorrow. Do you know that?" Yan Fugui said.
"Well, the store also notified us that winter stored vegetables are about to arrive." Lin Tian said.
Yan Fugui suddenly whispered, "Xiao Lin, what do you say I should buy it in your store?"
Lin Tian finally understood what he meant. Usually, people in the compound would not go to Lin Tian's store because it was a little far away. Probably only when they encountered something that they couldn't buy here would they think of going to Lin Tian's store.
"Uncle, if you don't mind the distance, go ahead."
"Hey, don't I just want you to see it so that I can buy you some good ones later?" Yan Fugui said, rubbing his hands.
"Even if I take another look, I can't help you turn a second-rate dish into a first-rate one." Lin Tian smiled, and then continued: "You know that no matter where you are, you are not allowed to pick and choose the dishes. Besides, there are so many people there, how can they let you choose and not let others choose?"
"Is there no other way?" Yan Fugui asked unwillingly.
"With so many people queuing up, if anyone dares to pick for you, there will be a fight." Lin Tian looked at Yan Fugui helplessly. This guy really wanted to take advantage of anything.
"Is it really impossible?"
"It's really not possible. Don't even think about it." Lin Tian said firmly.
"Hey." Yan Fugui finally sighed, and then asked: "Xiao Lin, how do you plan?"
"I plan to buy half of the good ones and half of the bad ones, so that I can save some sauerkraut to eat. I'm afraid that the cabbage will rot if I use the bad ones." Lin Tian said.
In fact, the store had already made arrangements that each person could buy two servings of first-grade cabbage at the price of second-grade cabbage. Lin Tian had no way of explaining this to Yan Fugui.
Lin Tian also planned to arrange the cabbage in his home as well, because you know there is a big difference here.
"Or I can ask your third aunt to help you take care of it when the time comes." Yan Fugui said.
"No, no. I can do it myself. It's just a few dozen kilograms of cabbage." Lin Tian quickly declined. He estimated that if he asked the third aunt to take care of it, half of the cabbage would have to be cleaned. I knew that pickling sauerkraut requires cleaning off some of the thick leaves on the outside of the cabbage.
"Don't you guys have any benefits working in this store?" Yan Fugui asked.
“What benefits can you get? At most, when you step on the scale, the three or two kilograms will be wiped out.” Lin Tian fooled.
"That's not bad, any savings counts." Yan Fugui looked envious.
"No more talking. I'm going back first." After saying that, Lin Tian pushed his bicycle towards the backyard.
As soon as I entered the house and sat down to drink some water, someone knocked on the door.
Lin Tian opened the door, wow! Yi Zhonghai came with Sha Zhu and Jia Dongxu.
"Uncle, is there anything wrong?" Lin Tian asked. In fact, he didn't need to say anything, Lin Tian knew that he came for the winter storage vegetables.
"Xiao Lin, I want to ask you for a favor. We are going to buy some vegetables for the winter together. We will go to your place together. Can you take care of me?"
"Uncle Yi, Uncle San has just come to me about this matter. I can't take care of it." Lin Tian said directly.
"Why can't I take care of him? Aren't you also in the grocery store? Just say hello and it will be done." Sha Zhu acted nonchalantly beside him.
Lin Tian didn't even look at him, he just looked at Yi Zhonghai and said, "Uncle, tell me how to take care of him."
"Let us just pick up some good ones when the time comes." said Sha Zhu.
"Yes, just tell the vegetable seller." Yi Zhonghai said.
"Okay. Don't blame me when you get beaten." Lin Tian was amused. Others might not know, but Yi Zhonghai didn't.
"Let's see who the hell dares." Sha Zhu started to act tough.
“There are hundreds of people queuing up here. If you don’t get beaten when choosing your dishes, you’re done.” Lin Tian said with a sneer.
"Xiao Lin, we don't mind, but do you think we can help the deaf old lady?" Yi Zhonghai changed his strategy.
"Okay, I'll just say hello to Director Wu and ask the street office to deliver it to my door. He needs to be taken care of at such an old age."
"Um... don't bother the street office. Just let Shazhu help pull it back when the time comes." Yi Zhonghai really had nothing to say.
"Uncle, I won't keep you here any longer." After saying that, Lin Tianli ignored the two people beside him and went straight into the house.
"This..." Jia Dongxu was hesitant to speak.
Sha Zhu did speak up: "I knew it would be useless to look for this guy."
Lin Tian was sitting in the house and heard them, but he was too lazy to pay attention to them. One was a lost family, one was a dying mama's boy, and one was a bootlicker.
The arrival of winter vegetables marks one of the busiest times for grocery stores, with just as many people as during the Spring Festival.
Moreover, the business hours have been extended from early morning till midnight.
Every year when we go shopping for groceries, it’s always quite lively, with all kinds of things happening.
"Xiao Lin, Xiao Lin, Brother Xiao Lin." Lin Tian worked an early shift today, so he returned home on time.
As soon as he entered the room, he heard someone knocking on the door. Lin Tian opened the door and saw that it was Xu Damao.
The boy looked very happy. As soon as Lin Tian opened the door, he squeezed in. He didn't say anything. He took the teapot and poured a glass of water. After drinking it, he said, "There's something exciting to watch today."
"What's wrong? You are so happy. Does it have anything to do with Sha Zhu?" Lin Tianle's first reaction was that something bad must have happened to Sha Zhu.
"You really guessed it. This kid got beaten up outside." Xu Damao could no longer suppress the joy on his face.
"What's going on?" Lin Tian asked curiously.
"Just now, the hospital organized a group to go shopping for vegetables, and I followed them, but Shazhu insisted on picking and choosing, and even got angry when people didn't let him."
"As a result, the salesperson asked the people around him to beat up Shazhu."
"Hahahaha, a lot of people pushed him to the ground, and I even kicked him twice."
"Are Yi Zhonghai and the others not here?" Lin Tian asked.
"Yes, but what's the use! There are so many people here," said Xu Damao.
"Hahaha." Lin Tian was also amused. Sha Zhu was quite smart. I thought he was just talking at the doorstep that day, but he actually did it!
Then Lin Tian told Xu Damao about Yi Zhonghai’s visit that day.
"This group of people didn't get any advantage from you, so they went to the government to take advantage. They deserve it." Xu Damao said angrily.
"Is Shazhu okay?" Lin Tian asked.
"It's okay, I was wearing warm clothes. No one was violent, I just got kicked a few times." Xu Damao seemed a little unsatisfied.
