On the other side, Shen Jiaojiao said goodbye to the two of them and hurried home. She took out the money given by Lu Yunshan from the cabinet, put about a hundred yuan and some cloth coupons in her pocket, and hurried to the dock.
Although it was a little late to leave the island now, and I couldn't catch the boat that left after 10 o'clock, but as long as I came back at the specified time in the evening, it would be fine.
On the other side, Zhou Yuanzheng and Shen Qingqing had already arrived in the city, and they rushed to the largest department store in the city. Haicheng was quite prosperous, and there was also a five-story building in the city, where all the things sold were produced in Shanghai and Guangzhou. It was said that most of the things came from old state-owned factories.
If you want to buy something here, you need more than money and tickets to buy some popular items. You also need to have a connection! Most of the items here have been reserved by insiders, but Zhou Yuanzheng has military discounts, and you can get a spot with your military ID.
There weren't many people in the building, and the staff at the counter were all indifferent. They were either chatting with the people next to them while holding a handful of sunflower seeds, or wiping the non-existent dust on the goods. Serving customers? You're overthinking it. They're not waiters. They're officially employed and don't try to sell you goods.
Zhou Yuan was leading Shen Qingqing to the third floor. A few days ago, he heard that a new batch of goods had arrived here, except for those that had been reserved. The army specially issued a batch of furniture tickets to soldiers who had made outstanding contributions in this battle. Even if they didn't buy it this time, they could keep it for later use.
Just as Shen Qingqing wanted to change her wardrobe, he brought people here to pick out goods.
The salesperson was still ignoring them and trying to drive them away, "Hey, we don't have any stock here..."
But when he saw Zhou Yuanzheng taking out his military officer ID, his expression quickly changed from gloomy to bright, and he immediately and attentively opened the partition and brought the two people in.
"We just received a batch of Shanghai products. They are produced by the largest furniture factory in Shanghai. Whatever you want, I can help you check if we have it in the warehouse. After all, you know that this furniture is in great demand, and many pieces have already been reserved." The salesperson lowered his voice and spoke to Zhou Yuanzheng.
Zhou Yuanzheng frowned slightly, then pointed at Shen Qingqing beside him and said, "Speak to my wife, she will decide."
The salesperson was stunned, and then turned to Shen Qingqing with a much colder attitude, "What do you want to buy? I'll tell you first, but it may not be in stock!"
Shen Qingqing was too lazy to argue with her. After all, being able to work in a department store these days was impossible without a background. However, after a few years, when the national policy changes, these people won't be able to show off.
Shen Qingqing said, "I want a wardrobe, a bigger one. The appearance is not important, what is important is that it is sturdy."
"Then you can rest assured. The products here are all produced by state-owned factories. The quality is guaranteed."
The salesperson pointed to a large red solid wood wardrobe behind her, about two meters high and one and a half meters wide. "Take a look at this one? It's also new. Although it looks a bit simple, it's of high quality, has a lot of space, and can hold a lot of clothes."
Shen Qingqing looked in the direction of her finger, then moved closer to observe, touched the wood of the cabinet, and knocked on the cabinet door twice. Hmm, it was really solid wood, and it sounded sturdy. "Are there any other models? Or is this the only one?"
The saleswoman rolled her eyes in disdain. If Zhou Yuan hadn't been there, she wouldn't have bothered to deal with this woman. She looked like a country bumpkin with no experience. Some of the items had already been reserved by insiders, so how could it be the turn of these unconnected country bumpkins?
