Therefore, only some stores selling daily necessities in the city were open to facilitate supplies to the people.
"Sure enough...in war, the people are the ones who suffer the most." Li Xin nodded slightly to show his understanding.
She was born in a peaceful era and had only seen war in movies.
Li Xin is very grateful to those who have contributed to the peace and prosperity of the country and the people in future generations.
"Once the situation is completely stable, we will send someone to notify you."
The situation is not completely under control now. The military district has not sent anyone over yet, and it will probably take some time before a notice is issued.
The people are quite cooperative with this. Under the current circumstances, they would rather stay at home than go out, so there are not many people on the streets.
…
"No, there are too few people who can install telephones here, and there are very few stores that sell telephones..." Li Xin walked past two stores but couldn't find one, and he couldn't help but feel anxious.
The purpose of this trip was to buy a landline so that it would be convenient to contact my parents.
She and He Beichen searched for a while before finally finding a store that sold landline phones.
"Come in and take a look around, you two. The phones in my store are of very good quality. They are good products and will work for many years without any problems!" When the shopkeeper saw that they wanted to buy phones, he immediately came forward to greet them warmly.
There are very few people coming to buy phones, and there are not many phones in the store, just a few. Except for the slightly different colors, they are basically the same, with no difference.
There weren't many styles to choose from, so Li Xin picked one that he liked.
"Our store provides door-to-door installation. We guarantee that it will be installed for you and there will definitely be no problems." Seeing how straightforward they were, the store owner quickly said with a smile.
It's not easy to get a customer to come and buy a phone, so the store owner wanted to catch the person and didn't want to let him go.
"There's no need for on-site installation. The military district won't allow us in." He Beichen immediately rejected it when he heard about on-site installation.
Li Xin was listening nearby and realized that the military district couldn't even provide on-site installation.
"You can install this phone yourself. It's very simple to install. I can teach you and you can take it back and install it yourself." The boss said quickly.
He Beichen had originally planned to do this, but after hearing what his boss said, he felt a little tempted.
Li Xin asked about the price, it was a bit expensive, buying this phone would cost as much as a pig... Thinking about it, he felt a little sorry for the money.
"My prices are very fair, you can rest assured. Even if you ask a few more places, my prices are the best!" The boss saw that she was worried about the money and said quickly.
Li Xin looked at He Beichen, asking for his opinion with his eyes.
If there were two more stores selling telephones, I could go and have a look and compare.
But it is not easy to find a store that sells telephones. The two people made eye contact. Although they didn't say anything, they probably understood something from each other's eyes.
In the end, he bought a phone from this store. He Beichen learned how to install the phone from the boss before leaving with his things.
"Phone calls are really expensive... No wonder so few people install them." Li Xin walked out of the store, still feeling the pain of the money he had just spent.
"Ordinary people rarely use it. It only costs one or two cents to call a small store outside." He Beichen nodded. Although it was expensive, he felt that this phone was more convenient to buy.
There was no one I needed to contact before, but it’s different now.
"The weather is getting colder, and you haven't bought your winter clothes yet. Let's go buy some more winter clothes." He Beichen said.
Since I finally come out, I have to buy everything I need.
He took Li Xin to the department store, where they could buy many things, including some daily necessities.
In the south of the border, winter is not as cold as in the north. Even in winter, a coat is enough and there is no need for a cotton-padded jacket.
"If I'm going to the capital during the Spring Festival, I'll probably need to buy some cotton clothes. The winter there is very cold." When Li Xin was choosing a coat, he suddenly thought of the Spring Festival.
"When the New Year is approaching, I'll ask my parents about the weather there, and then prepare things. Maybe I'll have to prepare cotton coats, gloves and other things." He Beichen nodded. He only had a general understanding of the weather conditions in the capital.
Li Xin thought so too, but it was indeed a bit early to prepare now.
She looked at two coats, one thinner for when it wasn't so cold.
There is also a thicker one, which is more suitable for wearing when it is colder.
"You can buy two more thick ones. Winter can also be quite cold." He Beichen said with some concern after watching her choose the clothes.
"I've already picked out two coats, but you haven't even looked at any of your clothes." Li Xin saw that He Beichen was still choosing for her, and she also wanted to pick out two pieces for him to wear.
"I don't need it." But He Beichen shook his head and rejected Li Xin's suggestion.
"I still have clothes at home, and I usually wear military uniform, so there's no need to buy too many clothes." He Beichen felt that there was no need to waste money on himself.
But Li Xin is different. She still has too few clothes and should buy more. Besides, the little girl loves beauty very much. He Beichen wants to give his little wife the best things!
He compared the coat he had just chosen on Li Xin and was quite satisfied with it, so he took it directly.
