Shen An Ning's favorite is the fresh meat shop. There are six fresh pork ribs delivered in the morning, which are divided into twelve pieces. The pork fat is divided and placed in a large wooden barrel, the pig's head is placed on the operating table at the back, and the pig's offal has been cleaned. The pig's trotters are placed in a wooden barrel, 24 rows in a row, which is a pleasure to look at. The pig's liver and blood are placed together. The six pieces of ribs have not been divided yet and are placed on the side. On the chopping board in front are two pieces of pork that have been cut up, one by one, and still placed together, without time to hang them up.
A whole head of beef was cut into pieces and placed on the chopping board, filling up the entire board. If you looked closely, you could see the muscles throbbing. There wasn't much mutton, but it was already cooked, and it looked like it weighed about 100 pounds.
Thirty processed chickens, twenty-five processed ducks, and five geese. There were several large freezers on the second floor, one of which was filled entirely with frozen chicken and duck. They came in luxurious packaging, probably for making chicken and duck soup.
The other three freezers were filled with bags of packaged chicken legs, chicken wings, chicken feet, duck wings, duck necks, chicken gizzards, duck gizzards, palm treasures, and fork bones.
Shen Anning also experienced the 1970s, so of course she knew what these meats meant. You have to know that in the bill era, people at the level of Grandpa Shen could only get less than two kilograms of meat coupons and forty-five kilograms of grain coupons a month.
The fruit and vegetable shop had relatively few vegetables. Only three tables in the two connected shops were filled with vegetables; the rest were filled with fruit. This was a rural area, after all, and every household grew some crops, so the demand for vegetables was low. The main selection was fruit, a wide variety: apples, bananas, pears, tangerines, grapes, peaches, watermelon, yellow-skinned cantaloupe, plums, pomegranates, persimmons, mangoes, pomelos, and pineapples. There were also lychees and durian, though in smaller quantities: two boxes of lychees and twenty durians. The bulk of the produce was still watermelon and peaches, as they were in season. There were over thirty watermelons on the first floor shelves, and twenty boxes of four per box on the second floor. Upstairs, there were also a large number of apples, oranges, bananas, and pears, which were also popular.
The clothing store and shoe store are what Shen Anning is most interested in. She has ordered clothes and shoes here before, but she has never taken inventory like the owner. This Jiangshan is a bit big.
Because it was August, most of the shelves in the clothing store were still filled with summer clothes, and a few shelves had already started to stock autumn clothes. The first floor was quite large, and the ready-made clothes were mainly concentrated here. The second floor was mainly for storage and processing, with three sewing machines, a total of 46 batches of various colored cotton cloths, patterned cloths, and karen cloths. The cotton filled six sacks, which should have been stockpiled in advance by the store owner.
The same was true in the shoe store. There were cloth shoes, sneakers, rubber shoes, leather shoes, and all kinds of them. Shen An Ning was completely dazzled by the choices.
The grocery store was really quite mixed. Shen An Ning was a little at a loss as to where to start. After a rough look, she found that the items ranged from needles and thread to iron pots and wooden basins.
What Shen Anning cares about most is the pharmacy, because of her aunt, second brother Shen Anchen and little niece, this pharmacy is her lifeblood.
Fortunately, this pharmacy, because it carries the daily medicine needs of thousands of people in several nearby villages, has a complete range of products and large quantities. At the Chinese medicine counter, Shen Anning found ginseng nourishing pills, black chicken and white phoenix pills, and other blood-replenishing medicines. Seeing a cabinet full of Yunnan Baiyao, Shen Anning's heart was finally put at ease. Without saying a word, he first found a small ceramic bottle, took out five pills with a safety pin and put them in, then took out two more pills, sealed them in oil paper, and folded them. Looking at the paper ball the size of a fingernail, it was about the same size as the photo box on the silver chain worn by the second brother. This was one of the few "heirlooms" of the Shen family that was more practical. It could be opened, and some small things could be placed in the middle.
In his previous life, my second brother was injured and lost too much blood during a mission. In addition, he was sent to the hospital too late. Those villains took advantage of the situation and did not take proper care of him in the later period, which caused him to lose everything. He was exhausted and died due to the consumption in the subsequent missions.
Thinking of the death of his second brother in his previous life, Shen An Ning wanted to torture those villains to death. Soldiers bleed and fight hard on the battlefield, but they are only concerned with fighting for power and profit, and even covet the nutrients in the mouths of patients. Damn it, those people deserve to die!
I also prepared some medicinal powder and wrapped it in paper. I removed the packaging of the tonics and put them into ceramic bottles. I prepared some for my eldest aunt and second brother, and also prepared a bottle for my aunt and uncle.
Looking at the porcelain bottles and paper bags that had been repackaged and piled together, Shen Anning felt a great sense of accomplishment. From the moment she learned she was back in the morning until now, she felt most at ease.
