Mr. Wu and the others were not surprised by the power supply at the research institute; power shortages can happen anywhere, and this place was no exception.
But according to Shi Moyun, these things in the department store should be for people's livelihood. Do ordinary people have enough electricity in their homes?
Before Shi Moyun could speak, the sales clerk beside her said with a smile, "Sir, electricity is now available in almost every household, so there's no need to worry about the power supply..."
"But electricity bills for such large appliances must be very high, right?"
Mr. Wu suddenly felt like he had become a country bumpkin, knowing nothing and needing others to tell him things.
"Electricity bills are indeed a significant expense, but compared to before, they are much lower now. For those who can afford these appliances, electricity costs are generally not a big deal."
The sales clerk explained politely with a smile.
Shi Moyun watched with satisfaction as Mr. Wu and the others gaped in astonishment. The China of today was no longer what it had been yesterday.
With the successful development of hybrid rice, agricultural machinery and tools have been continuously reformed, benefiting countless households, and the food problem is gradually being solved.
Nowadays, while not every household eats the best food, at least they no longer go hungry, as long as they have a pair of hands willing to work hard.
Regarding clothing materials, the development of textile machinery also promoted a mechanical revolution in fabric production. Compared with the past when manual labor and simple machinery were used, output increased and was sufficient to meet domestic demand.
I don't know when it started, but gradually some ordinary cloth coupons and food coupons disappeared into the annals of history. Of course, for some special items, coupons still exist, and they are not over-supplied to prevent people from hoarding them.
While Mr. Wu and the others waited for their interrogation in a confidential location, their daily meals were naturally quite good, even including meat. However, they felt a pang of sadness as they ate, believing that it was only because of their identities that the meals were specially prepared for them…
Shi Moyun didn't intend to say much. She would take them around to see things for themselves so they could believe it.
Seeing everyone's curiosity about the items sold in the department store, Shi Moyun glanced at her watch to check the time and said, "You can continue browsing here for another hour. There's a nice restaurant nearby; we'll go there for lunch later."
Mr. Wu and the others exchanged glances and nodded; they were genuinely curious.
An hour is usually enough time for men to go shopping, but after an hour, Shi Moyun glanced at her watch and reminded everyone that Mr. Wu and the others said...
Wait a little longer...
Shi Moyun shrugged. This was probably the charm of something truly delicious.
Mr. Wu and the others were researchers. They were a bit confused at first, but now that they have confirmed that all these mechanical products are made in China, they are already excited and linger over them.
As Mo Yun watched the sky outside gradually darken, she touched her nose and said, "Hey, comrades, we need to get back before eight o'clock. I think we should leave..."
Mr. Wu and the others reluctantly followed Shi Moyun out of the department store. A few hundred meters away from the department store was a very famous Chinese restaurant, which even had many foreign customers. After all, no one can resist the charm of delicious food.
However, just as everyone was about to step inside, Xiao Liu pointed them in another direction...
