Chapter 16 Hemisphere Rice Cooker is Cost-Effective…
Chapter 16
Lin Mujin and his two siblings bought another 20 kilograms of cotton at the wholesale market before leaving. Their next stop was the underground shopping mall.
Buy underwear for the whole family.
In addition to buying things for himself, Cousin Lin also bought things for Uncle and Xiao Li.
Lin Mujin and her cousin Lin bought their own things because they had different aesthetic tastes.
She picked out three pure cotton white briefs, a sports bra and a bra with some push-up function.
Seeing that cousin Lin had also picked out two sets of underwear, Lin Mujin began to bargain with the boss and finally gave him an 15% discount.
Cousin Lin wanted to take out the money, but her hands were not as fast as hers.
"Why are you so quick? Brother told you not to pay anymore." Cousin Lin complained.
Lin Mujin pretended to be well-behaved. "Okay, I won't pay for it next time. Sister, buy me a few pairs of slippers. The house is so clean, so I can change into slippers inside from now on. We have a shoe cabinet at home."
Cousin Lin waved her hand and said, "Buy it."
Cousin Lin was a decisive person. She directly pulled Lin Mujin to the counter selling slippers.
There are all kinds of shoes for sale in the row, and slippers only take up a small area, but the prices are not expensive.
Of course they didn't go to those high-end shopping malls.
They asked the boss to give them a discount and picked out five pairs of slippers.
Lin Mujin picked out a pair of green shoes for herself, two sizes larger.
There’s an old saying that goes, if you want to live a good life, you have to have some green.
As for why I chose a large size, it’s simply because it’s more comfortable to wear and my feet don’t like being restricted.
In fact, except for the old man whose slippers were the exact size (because they were afraid that they wouldn't fit and he would fall again), everyone else's slippers were too big.
After buying shoes, I bought some small items, such as toothbrushes, soap, shampoo, towels, casseroles, etc.
"Sister, go look at the rice cooker."
Lin Mujin was holding a lot of things in her hands and was almost unable to walk around.
She still got the least, and cousin Lin was the main force.
"No, go look at some more clothes," said cousin Lin. "Xiao Li's sportswear is pretty good."
Seeing that her cousin was so happy, Lin Mujin didn't want to spoil her fun, so she had to accompany her.
With her as an old customer, it was naturally easier to bargain, and we quickly got four sets.
As for Xiao Li, since he already had one, he didn't buy another one. Cousin Lin picked out a short-sleeved sports T-shirt for him.
"Why do you, a girl, like old-fashioned things so much? The white one looks so good." Cousin Lin kept nagging, as she was disgusted with Lin Mujin for choosing a black sportswear.
Lin Mujin smiled and asked back, "It seems that my sister didn't choose black."
Cousin Lin was very confident and said, "I am working there. Black things don't get dirty easily."
Lin Mujin raised an eyebrow. "I have to finish my manuscript. If I'm not careful, the pen ink will get on me. I don't want to wash clothes every day."
The two sisters kept arguing, and cousin Lin didn't participate at all. Finally, the three of them arrived at the rice cooker counter.
Imported high-end products are not considered.
In the end, the three of them unanimously decided to buy the half ball because it has the best value for money. It only costs 120 yuan and has a large capacity. It also comes with a steamer, so they can steam something while cooking in the future.
After buying the rice cooker, the three of them stopped shopping in the underground mall and found a place to sit and rest for ten minutes. They were all a little tired from carrying so many bags.
Lin Mujin was a little thirsty, so she asked her cousin to keep an eye on the things while she went to buy some water.
Of course, the cheapest one is Watsons distilled water, which costs three dollars a bottle.
Even the cheapest one is too expensive to her. Isn't it just boiled water?
Next time I go out, I must bring my own water. I was in a hurry this time and didn’t prepare it well.
Lin Mujin bought a bottle and shared it among the three siblings.
After drinking the water, the three of them regained some energy.
Cousin Lin said, "It's getting late, let's go to the second-hand market."
Lin Mujin straightened up with all her strength and took a deep breath. "Let's go!"
They took advantage of the fact that it was still before the end of the working day so that the bus would not be too crowded, otherwise they might not be able to squeeze on with so many things.
The second-hand market has arrived and is a bit disorganized.
It was Lin Mujin's first time here, and although it was chaotic, there were still quite a few people.
After asking two stall owners, I quickly found a second-hand bicycle.
Lanling, this is a British brand.
Bridgestone, from China.
…
Lin Mujin also saw Phoenix and Forever, which were the preferred brands. Apparently, her cousin thought so too.
Lin Mujin and her cousin were in charge of looking at the bags, while her cousin Lin carefully examined the used cars.
I even rode around the stall twice, and the boss allowed it.
In the end, I picked two Phoenix cars, both of which were about 70% to 80% new. The rest was just bargaining with the boss.
The boss was quite generous and gave me a discount of thirty dollars. The total cost of the two cars was three hundred and fifty.
With a bicycle, some bags can be strapped to the back seat.
Then the question arises again, how to ride two bicycles home.
Lin Mujin probably doesn't know how to ride a bike.
Although she had memories of her past life, she had never ridden such a big bike with a horizontal bar.
Cousin Lin doesn’t know how to ride either.
The three of them stared at each other for a while before Cousin Lin made the arrangements. "Xiao Jin, you take the bus home. You'll make dinner. Xiao Qi and I will push the cart back."
Lin Mujin's eyes widened. "It's so far. It will take more than an hour to walk."
Cousin Lin smiled optimistically, "Maybe I'll learn to ride a bike halfway through."
Lin Mujin tried to test the waters, "How about I push the cart while Sister goes home to make dinner? I'm a better athlete."
She definitely learns faster than her cousin, I am very confident about this.
Lin's cousins refused to agree, so Lin Mujin had no choice but to obey, "Then I'll get the rice cooker."
Others can be tied to bicycles, but this one can't.
Cousin Lin agreed and handed her the rice cooker box.
Lin Mujin just held her hands together, which somewhat obstructed her vision.
Just carry it.
Cousin Lin has already tied a cross knot.
However, the cardboard box was too big, and Lin Mujin's arms were limited, so she bumped her legs while carrying it.
I simply put one leg on the cardboard box, so that the cardboard box and my leg are always in close contact and it won't bump into me anymore.
Lin Mujin: I’m really a clever little fellow!
On the way to the bus stop, she found a great find - a second-hand mattress.
It turns out that spring mattresses were available at that time. I asked the price and they were all over 500 yuan.
Is it so expensive?
Aren't they all second-hand?
She was a little tempted, but the small bed at home couldn't fit it.
When she has her own bedroom, I will definitely buy her a two-meter bed and then a new large mattress to match it. She will definitely be comfortable sleeping there.
If you can't buy a mattress, you can still get a bamboo mat.
She carefully picked one with fine patterns. The edges were a little worn, but it looked about 80% new overall. After washing it carefully twice and re-wrapping the edges, it was almost as good as new.
In fact, new mats are not expensive, and there is no need to buy second-hand ones. It won’t save you much money.
Lin Mujin is not that stingy. She just does what is convenient for her and does an experiment.
She wants to make a large mattress weighing four kilograms, which must be soft and hot. It would be better if she put a mat under it.
Then put a layer of old coarse cloth on it.
She doesn't let the mat get close to her skin, which is why she is more likely to accept second-hand items.
If the experiment is successful, I will arrange it for my family.
Now she only has two hands and can't hold more.
