Chapter 371
The whole family went to the market 4 Chen Qingyi was surprised: "You didn't bring any money when you came?"
"I forgot to bring it."
Before Chen Qingfeng could speak, Chu Heng interrupted and said, "Qingfeng lent me the money to buy fruit."
Chu Xun rolled his eyes at him and took out two big unity banknotes from his pocket.
"Thank you, brother!" Chu Heng immediately smiled and pulled Chen Qingfeng to the front of the stall.
The little red whips have 50, 100, 200, 500, and even 1,000 bangs.
Chen Qingyi really didn't expect this.
The firecrackers were quite artistic, with the words "Great Thousand Worlds, Four Modernizations, Working Together for Great Achievements" written on them!
Emma, selling firecrackers these days is both red and professional, and quite interesting!
In addition, there are firecrackers, sky rockets, peacocks, scratch firecrackers, throwing firecrackers, and fireworks sticks...
Who would have thought there were so many types of fireworks in the 1970s!
Today's little red whips are much better looking in packaging than those in later generations.
It looks like a New Year picture, with "Nanhai Fireworks Factory" written in the middle of the top, and three children setting off firecrackers at the bottom.
Two boys and one girl, the little girl was covering her ears.
What’s even more surprising is that there are fireworks printed on it, as well as the address and phone number.
The number is awesome, 15558!!!
There is also a kind of firecracker with the words "electric light quick trigger" written on it. This kind of firecracker can make 500 sounds and can last for half a day.
If the neighbors heard the sound of firecrackers lasting for a long time, they would be very envious.
Unlike later generations, a thousand shots disappeared in an instant. I don’t know if it was due to cutting corners.
Chen Qingfeng and Chu Heng took a long time to choose but still couldn't come up with a solution, which made Chen Qingyi anxious.
It was too noisy in front of the stall. There were many naughty kids standing there motionless, and crying loudly if their parents didn't buy anything.
Some naughty boys tried to pull them with their hands, but were scolded by the stall owner and their parents.
Some aunties and sisters were still haggling over the price.
The stall owner was almost worn out by the rhetoric, "Auntie, you really can't go any cheaper, these are all set by the supply and marketing cooperative, I don't have the final say."
"Oh, this one definitely makes a noise. We bought it from a regular manufacturer."
"From the South!"
"Oh, Auntie, thirty-five cents is too cheap. How about you buy some loose ones..."
In the end, the aunt shook her head, touched her pocket, and dragged her child away.
You can still hear the crying and wailing from a long distance away.
Nowadays, fruit candies are only one cent each, and 35 cents for a hundred-shot firecrackers is indeed a luxury for many families.
"Chu Xun, you and my grandma wait here first. I'll squeeze in and see what they are looking at!"
Chu Xun nodded: "Okay, go slowly, don't let anyone step on your feet."
"Yeah!" As soon as she finished speaking, she rushed out and squeezed next to Chen Qingfeng in a few seconds.
"Why haven't you finished shopping yet?"
"You want too much!" Chen Qingfeng grinned.
Chen Qingyi waved her hand and said, "Then buy them all!"
What’s the point of celebrating the New Year without setting off firecrackers!
"Boss, give me five of these 500-shot ones, five of these 1,000-shot ones, and twenty double-kick firecrackers. Bundle them in bundles of ten so I can carry them easily.
There are also these firecrackers and rowing firecrackers, five boxes each.
Can you give me five of these flying monkeys, ten in each?"
"Ten, ten!" The stall owner smiled so hard that his teeth showed, as if he had seen the God of Wealth.
Put it into the basket quickly.
Chen Qingyi pointed at the peacock spreading its tail and said, "Give me ten of these, no, twenty!"
The New Year is supposed to be lively.
Chen Qingfeng's mouth gradually turned into a "" shape, and he tugged at Chen Qingyi's clothes: "Sister, there are new types of fireworks sticks this year!"
"Really? What kind?"
The stall owner immediately became more energetic, "Young comrade, this batch of fireworks we have comes from the hometown of fireworks, Liuyang, and there are so many varieties.
We've never sold it here before.
In addition to those that can be swung in your hands, there are also those that fly in the sky, spray on the ground, and spin on the water.
There is also the "Flowers of the Goddess" which is very beautiful, but a little expensive."
Chen Qingyi's eyes sparkled, she liked this, "Then comrade, give me more of each of the things you mentioned.
Twenty of the same!"
She was particularly happy this year. It had been 1973, and the resumption of the college entrance examination was one step closer.
"Good! Good! Good!"
The stall owner was grinning from ear to ear, and Chen Qingfeng and Chu Heng were also very happy. The day before yesterday, Zhao Xiangmei had suggested that Chu Heng come to her house for the New Year.
Chen Qingyi couldn't set off many of these firecrackers and fireworks.
In the end, they both had a great time.
The adults and children around were all envious, but the aunts and sisters-in-law just pouted and complained that they didn't know how to live.
Who can spend so much money on firecrackers? It's too wasteful.
Another aunt said loudly: "If this happened to my daughter, I would definitely beat her up.
Is it easy for adults to make money?
I'm just buying these things that are not fit for eating or drinking. How much meat can I buy with this money? "
Old Mrs. Chen was rummaging through the firecrackers in the basket, smacking her lips. When she heard what the aunt said, she immediately put her hands on her hips and yelled back.
"My granddaughter can buy as much as she wants, it doesn't cost your family's money, what's it got to do with you?
It’s better to eat salty radish than to worry about other things. I think you are just jealous!
Xiaoyi, grandma will give you some more money, buy some more of that thing that can fly up into the sky!"
Old Mrs. Chen felt a little distressed, but she would rather lose the battle than the people.
Now is the time to throw money at people.
He pulled out two Big Unity banknotes from the secret pocket of his trousers and Chen Qingyi happily bought a small bunch more.
The aunt was so angry that she rolled her eyes and walked away in shame.
After that, the news of the big fair spread and some people spent almost a hundred yuan to buy firecrackers.
Then he described Chu Xun's nearly 1.9-meter-tall figure, and Chen Qingyi's big watery eyes that couldn't be concealed even though half of her face was blocked.
And a red scarf.
After a few messages, I matched them up, and those who saw it next to the big pigpen and tractor slapped their thighs.
"Oh, I know. I've seen it before. It was in a big pigpen. Tsk tsk, there's no comparison. After all, I'm rich!"
"How much money does Big Pigpen make this year? About two thousand?"
“Can two thousand stop it?
You are so ignorant, like a frog sitting in a well, you deserve at least five thousand!"
An old man was spitting everywhere, gesturing with his hands, and his eyes were wide open.
