There was an old man guarding the door of the scrap yard. Wen Nuan told him honestly that she wanted to find some books. The old man raised his eyelids, looked at Wen Nuan for a few seconds, and let her in.
Books and newspapers are kept in a special room, which is quite large and clean.
"Fei Fei, help me look for the textbooks for both junior and senior high school, as well as anything else related to junior and senior high school studies!"
"Okay!"
Each of them searched the room bit by bit. With the help of the good luck charm, Wen Nuan quickly found the whole set. There were also some exercises, which Wen Nuan did not look at carefully. She felt that as long as they were useful, she found them all.
After finding one set, Wen Nuan wanted to find another set to send to Xie Sufang and the others. She put the good ones aside and started searching again.
While looking for it this time, Wen Nuan also paid attention to other books and found a few thread-bound books that looked quite old. Wen Nuan took a look and found medical books and dietary recipes. Wen Nuan thought about it and put these books into the space. She didn't know if they had any value, and she didn't understand, but she just felt that it was not good to leave these books here.
In addition to those books, Wen Nuan also saw some picture books. She flipped through them and found them quite interesting. They were nice for killing time occasionally, so she kept some too.
With the blessing of the good luck charm and the help of Feifei, Wen Nuan's second set of books was also completed.
After moving all the books together, Wen Nuan realized that there were too many. "There are so many books, can you let me take them all?"
"I think it's difficult! The inspection is so strict now, I definitely can't let you take it so openly."
“Then we can only make room.”
Wen Nuan picked out five or six Chinese and math textbooks for junior and senior high schools, and put all the other books into the space.
"Master, I read some period novels a few days ago, and they all said that you can find bargains at the scrapyard. Should we try it?"
"Do you know him?" Wen Nuan asked back, "If you want to find a bargain, you have to know him first. I was a social animal in my previous life and I don't know any good things at all. Can we find a bargain?"
"I don't know him either, but since I'm here, I might as well take a look!"
Wen Nuan thought about it and it made sense. Since she was already here, she might as well take a look!
There were several rooms in the scrap yard. After Wen Nuan put the books away, she pushed open the doors of other rooms and looked around. In one room there were some large furniture, like the bunk beds, octagonal tables, and armchairs you see on TV, but they were all broken and badly smashed.
"Master, those beds, don't novels say there are mezzanines? Go and take a look, go and take a look!"
Wen Nuan walked over carefully and said, "Look, they have all been pried open, and if there was anything, it was taken away long ago."
"Then let's look at something else!"
It's a pity that the two of them don't know the value of the wood. They can only look at it. If they know the value of the wood, they will find that some of the wood of these beds are precious wood. Collecting a few pieces will appreciate in value in the future. What a pity...
Wen Nuan looked around and saw a small square table that she liked, thinking it would be nice to put under the porch. She also found two small black boxes, both of which were opened and thrown there. It would be nice to take them home and put some small things there.
Those who really didn't know the value of these things took a bucket each and came to the old man at the gate with these things and books, and asked, "Uncle, how much do these cost?"
The old man took a quick look and said, "Give me 1 yuan!"
Wen Nuan took out a dollar and handed it to the old man, then left with all her things.
I found a secluded spot, threw a table and a wooden box into the space, and left only a few books outside.
Looking at the time, it was already past twelve o'clock, so I hurried to the state-owned restaurant.
When we arrived at the state-owned restaurant, Sister Xiangyu was already sitting there waiting.
"Oh, sister-in-law, have you been waiting for a long time? I went to the scrap yard and found a few books, so I came back late," Wen Nuan said apologetically as she put the backpack next to Sister Xiangyu.
"Oh, what's the big deal? I've already ordered. Go and order now!" Wang Xiangyu waved her hand indifferently.
"Sister Xiangyu, what did you order?"
"I ordered a bowl of clear soup noodles, packed a portion of braised pork, and bought 10 meat buns. Take a look at what you want and go ahead and order it!"
Wen Nuan then understood why Wang Xiangyu reminded her to take the lunch box. It turned out that she wanted to pack some food to take back.
Wen Nuan walked to the sign and took a look. In order not to make special arrangements, she ordered the same thing as Wang Xiangyu.
After dinner, the two sat and rested for a while, then left under the waiter's strange look. It was only one o'clock in the afternoon, and there were still two hours before the gathering time.
"Sister-in-law, what are we going to do next?"
"Come on, sister-in-law needs you to go somewhere!" Wang Xiangyu said to Wen Nuan mysteriously.
Wen Nuan found Wang Xiangyu's mysterious look a little funny, but she followed her obediently.
When they reached a deserted place, Wang Xiangyu handed a headscarf to Wen Nuan and asked her to wrap her head with it, leaving only her eyes exposed.
Wen Nuan looked at Wang Xiangyu with confusion, not understanding what she meant.
"Hey, listen to me, wrap your face and I'll take you to the 'black market'."
Wang Xiangyu whispered the word "black market" and Wen Nuan almost didn't hear it clearly. Only then did she understand Sister Xiangyu's actions.
After wrapping her head obediently, Wen Nuan followed Wang Xiangyu to the black market where she had been twice in the morning, just in time to buy some more things for the public use.
Wen Nuan went in and bought some fine grains. She also met a man selling noodles. The man was not there in the morning, so Wen Nuan bought another 5 kilograms of noodles.
With Sister Xiangyu around, Wen Nuan didn't dare to buy more. She just bought a little and stopped.
Sister Xiangyu also bought some fine grains and noodles, as well as some snacks and candies, probably to take back for the children.
After buying things, the two did not dare to stay any longer and quickly left the black market.
Except for Heishi who walked a little further away, the two looked at each other's sweaty forehead and burst into laughter.
"Let's go back and wait for the bus. The bus usually arrives half an hour early. We can still grab a good seat if we go now!"
"Okay, sister-in-law!"
The two of them walked towards the meeting point, talking and laughing.
When we arrived at the gathering point, a few people had already returned.
Wen Nuan didn't know anyone, but Sister Xiangyu knew a few of them. She took Wen Nuan to say hello, and then they found a place to talk while waiting for the bus.
The car arrived at 2:30. Wen Nuan and Wang Xiangyu climbed on the car and sat in the same seats they had sat in the morning. As soon as they sat down, they heard, "Sister Xiangyu, you are here today too?"
Wen Nuan and Wang Xiangyu looked towards the source of the voice. It was a woman wearing a blue-green dress and with a gentle face. She was holding a chubby and very cute little boy in her hands.
