Chapter 37 Buying Cloth
Wei Dong couldn't fall asleep listening to her even breathing.
To buy cloth, one needs to go to the town, which is too far to ride a bicycle, so Lian and Qing took the army's procurement vehicle out of town. Before getting off the vehicle, the young soldier told her to arrive here before 2 pm, and then they could go back together.
She didn't dare to waste time and went straight to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy cloth. The cooperative had just opened and there were many people queuing outside. She waited in line for a long time.
The blue ones had been sold out long ago, and when it was Lian and Qing's turn, only white and black were left. There was no need to put anything fancy inside when wearing underwear, as it wasn't a swimsuit.
Seeing that she didn't respond for a long time, the salesperson became impatient and looked at her with disdain, "Are you going to buy it or not? If not, just get out of the way and stop wasting my time."
"Yes, I want one meter each of the yellow cotton cloth and the black cotton cloth." Lian Yuqing said calmly.
The salesperson clicked his tongue. He had thought she was a wealthy woman because she was fashionably dressed and pretty, but he didn't expect her to buy the cheapest cotton cloth.
Two piles of cloth were casually thrown on the table. The salesperson didn't even raise his eyelids. "Two dollars and four cents, two cloth coupons."
Lian Yuqing glanced at the mess of cloths on the counter and said, "Please help me wrap it. I'll pay you later."
The salesperson was instantly furious and started to make trouble, "Hurry up and pay. You are pretending to be rich by buying such a small amount of stuff! What kind of person is that!"
Lian Yuqing smiled instead of getting angry, "Call your leader over."
"Are you going to buy it or not? If not, get out of here!" The salesperson raised his voice, and even the people behind Qing began to grumble in dissatisfaction, "What are you going to do? Don't waste my time!"
She closed the two windows and said, "If you don't tell your leader to do business, don't do business."
He didn't care about the complaints from the people behind him, and even blocked the window with a domineering attitude.
The salesperson rushed out, rolled up his sleeves and looked ready to fight. Lian Yuqing was not afraid at all, and raised his head, "If you dare to hit me, I'm a military wife. If I get beaten, we are no longer friends. I have to find my husband's leader to talk to you."
"You..." The salesperson's face trembled with anger, and he glared at her fiercely, "Just wait for me."
Two hours later, a man wearing gold-rimmed glasses followed behind him. It was obvious that the man was the salesperson's leader.
The man exudes an air of arrogance, and you can tell without a doubt that he is even worse than the salesperson.
Sure enough, the man spoke slowly: "How can you, a female comrade, interrupt our work at the supply and marketing cooperative for no reason? Leave quickly, or we will call the police to solve the problem."
The man was the manager of the supply and marketing cooperative, named Shen Tao. When he heard that there was a commotion, he immediately rushed over to see who was blind. But when he saw that Lian Yuqing was so beautiful and was a soldier's wife, his attitude became a little better.
"Go find the police, all right, hurry up and let the police judge. The staff of the supply and marketing cooperative who serve the people took the people's money, but they are so arrogant and look down on the people."
"We should also conduct a thorough investigation to find out whether it is just one comrade who has a problem with his thinking, or whether the entire supply and marketing cooperative has corrupted its thinking."
Lian and Qing were talking in a loud voice, and the people behind them heard it. They started out muttering in a low voice, and then the discussion became louder and louder. They must have been resentful of the salesperson's attitude for a long time.
Shen Tao's face became more and more ugly, not to mention the salesperson.
"Comrade, do you have any misunderstanding with our supply and marketing cooperative? Why don't we talk about it later?" Shen Tao smiled, but his eyes were wrinkled and he didn't look like a good person.
