"Sister, let's go."
Ning Qingyuan walked over and patted Ning Xiyue, who looked like she was enjoying herself, and took her out of the supply and marketing cooperative.
"Brother, how did you know that?" Ning Xiyue followed Ning Qingyuan's footsteps and asked curiously.
"You can see it, and of course I can see it as well since I'm your brother. We're the same size."
Although he is a simple person, he is not stupid. Today, those two people tried every means to get close to him and talk to him. His silly sister saw the clues, so as a brother, he could of course see something.
Ning Xiyue glanced at him angrily, pretending to hit him angrily, but in the end she only patted Ning Qingyuan's arm lightly: "Hey, second brother, are you praising me or insulting me? But the way you handled it still surprised me. It was unexpectedly good."
"Of course I'm praising you, sister. You believe me." Ning Qingyuan blinked his big, sincere eyes with a strong desire to survive. He didn't want to talk about it anymore and changed the subject: "Didn't you say you would take me somewhere? Let's go now."
"Yes, come with me and I'll take you to a good place."
Ning Xiyue led the way and walked towards her courtyard. On the way, Ning Xiyue whispered a brief account of the situation to Ning Qingyuan, and made up a reasonable reason for the house with a mixture of truth and lies.
"Brother, I was lucky. I came to town and came across a dilapidated yard for sale. I also had some money in my pocket from collecting a debt from those two people. I bought it when the opportunity presented itself. After buying it, I rented it to someone else and asked him to help me fix it up. I kept a small room for myself. I went to take a look today and the house has been repaired. It's not bad."
"How much does it cost to buy it?"
Ning Qingyuan asked carefully. He was worried that his sister would be cheated of money. Some people would specifically target innocent and gullible girls like his sister.
One lie requires more lies to cover it up. Ning Xiyue has read so many stories that she can tell them fluently, with an expression as if she has found a treasure.
"It's quite a bargain. Only a hundred yuan for a 500-square-meter apartment. I got both the title deed and the land deed. If the man hadn't been in a hurry to sell it and the house wasn't so run-down, I might not have gotten this deal. It's all thanks to my luck."
"You can stop by there to rest when you come to town next time."
As she spoke, she took out the house deeds and land deeds from her pocket and showed them to him, proving that she was telling the truth.
Ning Qingyuan took the handwritten note with some doubt, opened it and looked at it carefully. When he saw the neat seal on the top panel with the three words "Ning Xiyue" written neatly, his worries completely disappeared and were replaced by joy.
"My sister is so lucky. I, your brother, haven't encountered such a good thing in the two years since I went to the countryside."
Ning Xiyue smiled without saying anything. She had never encountered such a situation before, so the commander had to be reliable. One commander was worth thousands of horses and soldiers.
While talking, they had already walked outside the courtyard: "We're here, look, this is it, there's someone home, let's knock on the door first."
The person who came to open the door this time was Li Quan, who had not been seen for a long time. He was still as gentle and refined as ever. When he saw Ning Xiyue, he hurriedly welcomed her in.
Ning Xiyue smelled a faint scent of Chinese medicine and chicken soup from him, which made her want to drink chicken soup.
"Comrade Xiyue, long time no see. Who is this?"
Ning Xiyue pulled Ning Qingyuan to her side and said, "Let me introduce you to my brother, Ning Qingyuan. This is Comrade Li Quan who lives here and is a purchaser for the supply and marketing cooperative."
"Hello, Brother Li." Ning Qingyuan greeted him while looking him over.
Li Quan always had a gentle smile on his face: "Hello, Brother Ning. By the way, I just received a batch of defective cloth that needs to be processed. Does Comrade Xiyue need it?"
One of the best hidden benefits of working in a supply and marketing cooperative is that you are always the first group of people to know about defective products that do not require a ticket and are cheap, so of course you have the greatest chance of buying them. As a buyer, you are the first to know and have the best advantage in buying them.
The most sought-after defective cloths were basically collected by the supply and marketing cooperative staff who were the first to know the news and then told the family members to buy them before anyone else, and they were always sold out in no time.
This time he kept some of the defective cloth for himself and had some left over. When he met the homeowner again, he remembered the previous agreement to give him something in return to build a good relationship, so he asked this question.
Ning Xiyue didn't expect Li Quan to ask her so directly. She was stunned for a second and then agreed without hesitation: "That's great. I was just thinking of buying some. Thank you, Comrade Li."
Li Quan brought Ning Xiyue and her brother and sister into the house. Li Quan's wife Wu Junya came out holding two pieces of cloth, a ten-foot light blue cloth and a twelve-foot dark blue cloth.
"A section of the lighter color here is damaged. The color is uneven and there are some mottled colors. The dark blue is stained with motor oil, but the area is not large. The others are fine. Comrade Xiyue, please take a look."
Ning Qingyuan immediately fell in love with the light-colored cloth and said, "Sister, the light blue color looks good. It's perfect for making skirts in the summer."
Ning Xiyue didn't care. The colors of both pieces of cloth were nice. In fact, buying cloth was not the main thing. The main thing was to establish a good relationship. Li Quan on the opposite side had handed the raft to her, so of course she had to take it.
Li Quan pushed both pieces of cloth forward and said, "I can give both pieces to you."
Ning Xiyue smiled and shook her head: "Thank you, Brother Li, a piece of cloth is enough, just this piece of light blue cloth, my brother and I both like it."
In the end, Ning Xiyue bought the ten feet of light blue defective cloth for ten yuan without any cloth coupons.
In the supply and marketing cooperative, a foot of cloth sold for 1.5 yuan, and there was also a cloth coupon worth about 30 cents a foot.
No wonder defective cloth is so popular, it is cheap but not expensive.
But it doesn't matter, defective cloth is indeed not easy to buy.
After the cloth was bought, Li Quan and Ning Xiyue chatted for a while.
When talking about his usual purchases, Ning Xiyue took the opportunity to ask:
