Chapter 1487: Massive Purchase 2
Christine's gift was very generous. One hundred remittance coupons with a face value of 100 yuan could buy a total of 2,000 kilograms of grain, 300 kilograms of oil, various commodities equivalent to 2,000 shopping coupons, and 500 kilograms of non-staple food. The amount was shocking!
Meat, sugar, cakes, eggs, etc. are all supplementary foods.
Two days later, Feng Qingxue took the approval slip and overseas remittance vouchers to the Friendship Store to buy things.
Recently, the school organized activities such as field training and in-depth study of the lives of workers and peasants. Each trip lasted for ten days or half a month, and we had to carry bedding and dry food. It was hard work, needless to say. Those who participated last year complained bitterly in private after returning. Feng Qingxue used the excuse that no one was taking care of the children at home and took sick leave, and was quickly approved.
Lu Jiang has returned to the army, and the burden of the family is on Feng Qingxue's shoulders. The school has to take this into consideration.
Lu Tianzhi and Guan Yu followed Feng Qingxue to help carry things. Looking at the dazzling array of goods in the Friendship Store, they were reluctant to blink. There were handicraft counters, tobacco and alcohol counters, fabric counters, gold jewelry counters, watch counters, imported goods counters, etc. There were also refrigerators, washing machines, televisions, radios, bicycles, cosmetics, etc. There were too many to see them all.
"Aunt, what should we buy first?" Lu Tianzhi felt like his eyes were not his own.
Feng Qingxue had experience shopping at the Friendship Store. She glanced at the foreigners and said, "Because they are cheap."

Lu Tianzhi and Guan Yu suddenly gained more knowledge.
"Serve the people. Okay!" Seeing the big red seal on the approval slip, the salesperson was particularly quick and efficient.
After buying cigarettes and alcohol and putting them in Lu Tianzhi's backpack, Feng Qingxue turned to the handicraft counter, glanced at the handicrafts on the counter, and couldn't help frowning, "Unity is strength. Don't you have gift porcelain from the red official kiln? The best kind."
Feng Qingxue walked to the tobacco and alcohol counter and handed over the note, "Two bottles of Fenjiu, two bottles of Maotai, and two packs of the best cigarettes."
Guan Yu didn't wait for Feng Qingxue to answer, and whispered: "Aunt, there are many foreigners buying things. Why? No, no, the Friendship Store was originally opened for them. Of course they can come to buy things. I mean, they stay at the imported goods counter for a long time. Why don't they buy in their own country?"
"What?" Lu Tianzhi and Guan Yu both had question marks in their eyes.
Feng Qingxue sighed and explained in a low voice: "The prices in our country are low, and some imported goods are more expensive in their countries than in ours. So when many foreign guests leave, in addition to buying our country's unique handicrafts, they also buy some things that are also imported goods for them to take back, such as the French buying Swiss watches."
The salesperson shook his head. "Women hold up half the sky. No, no, gift porcelain is given to foreign dignitaries. We don't have it here."
The requirements for gift porcelain are extremely high. It would be good if a few hundred out of a thousand pieces can be successful. Therefore, it is impossible for them to appear in Friendship Stores, because many foreigners will buy ceramics to take back home, so where can they supply them?
Feng Qingxue thought about it and chose the best set of gift porcelain on the counter.
We have cigarettes, alcohol, and gift porcelain. The next thing is silk, silk from the Hangzhou Silk Factory. It is not easy to carry a single piece of silk, and it does not look good if cut into pieces. So we buy an embroidery with Hangzhou silk as the base.
These are all high-priced items, and Guan Yu feels bad for spending so much money.
