Chapter 5 Purchase Supplies



The judge's mouth twitched: "..." I told you to think carefully, not to let your imagination run wild. We can't let this girl think about it anymore. If she continues to think about it, she might really think that her 600 yuan is omnipotent. Can she become the chairman? Can she rule the world?

"It is better to rely on yourself than to rely on others. You should think about it carefully. Oh, by the way, you have to hurry up. You only have one hour to shop." So take back the unrealistic ideas in your mind and be practical.

When Jiang Shushu heard what the judge said, he was so scared that he had no idea what to do. He quickly turned his attention back to the shopping page. He had just wasted several minutes.

Just kidding, even if you want to make a quick buck, you have to choose the right time. These 600 yuan will determine whether your future life will be happy or not, so you can't afford to make any mistakes.

Jiang Shushu lowered his head in thought. How should he spend these 600 yuan? How could he let the three of them live like human beings?

People's lives include clothing, food, housing, transportation, and spiritual enjoyment. You have to start from these five aspects and spend the least money to achieve the desired effect.

Jiang Shushu planned to spend his money on clothing, housing, transportation, spiritual enjoyment, and food. The money was too little, and Jiang Shushu was afraid that he would not be able to resist buying a few more pounds of meat and spend all the money. By then, he would probably not be able to rely on anything except filling his stomach.

To solve the problem of "clothing", the most cost-effective way is to start from the source and buy cloth.

Jiang Shushu searched for pure cotton fabric and found the lowest price: a large piece of cotton fabric, 1.5 meters wide and 0.5 meters long, for just 5 yuan. Jiang Shushu chose seven colors: black, white, red, gray, light blue, military green, and floral print, spending 35 yuan.

With cotton cloth, we can cope with hot weather. We need cotton when it is cold because cotton coats, cotton pants, quilts... all require cotton.

Jiang Shushu searched for cotton and bought a pound for 10 yuan. Jiang Shushu then thought about the need for needles and thread, whether making clothes, quilts, or anything else. So he reluctantly spent another 2 yuan to buy needles and thread.

After solving the "clothing" problem, Jiang Shushu looked at the balance and found that there was still 553 yuan left.

Jiang Shushu looked at the next question - "housing". Related to "housing", apart from the house, there are daily necessities. He didn't think about the house anymore, as it had nothing to do with him. There were only these few daily necessities.

Jiang Shushu searched for daily necessities and bought a 120-gram tube of toothpaste, a toothbrush, a 500-gram bag of laundry detergent, a bar of soap, a towel, and 200-ml of shampoo, spending a total of 40 yuan.

After Jiang Shushu logged out, she accidentally clicked on skincare products. Then, facial cleansers, hydrating lotions, and facial masks all popped up. Jiang Shushu felt a little depressed.

Although I am not a delicate pig girl, I still spend two or three hundred yuan on these skin care products every month. Alas, life is so difficult now that I can only watch.

Jiang Shushu was about to leave when he saw the Dabao that he used when he was a child. Dabao can be used for many purposes, such as wiping face, hands, body and feet. It is just suitable for a poor guy like him now. Jiang Shushu gritted his teeth and made up his mind to buy a bottle of Dabao for 9.9 yuan.

Jiang Shushu took another look at the balance, 503.1 yuan

Jiang Shushu looked at the next question. "Okay," that one was easy. I didn't have to worry about bulky items, just a pair of shoes and socks for each foot. But I didn't know what size shoes the person I was wearing would wear. If you don't know, ask. What if someone else does?

Jiang Shushu looked up at the judge next to him. "Judge, may I ask what size shoes the person I want to wear wears?"

The judge was speechless. This was the first time a ghost had asked him such a bizarre question, but he still stretched out his right hand to summon the Book of Life and Death. The Book of Life and Death appeared and flipped open without a breeze. After the book stopped, the judge said, "37 numbers."

Holy crap! This Life and Death Book is so awesome! I just wanted to give it a try, but I didn't expect it to even know what shoe size someone wears. If it knows such a bizarre question, what else could it not know? This is terrifying.

"Thank you, Judge." After Jiang Shushu expressed his gratitude, he immediately came back to buy his own things. The Book of Life and Death is so powerful, so we should keep a low profile.

Jiang Shushu bought a pair of retro size 37 cloth shoes, which also came with a pair of socks, for 13 yuan.

Next, the question of "spiritual enjoyment" comes to mind. What does spiritual enjoyment entail? It requires economic freedom. How can one achieve economic freedom? Jiang Shushu immediately thought of the famous "Three Turns and One Ring" in period literature. These four things are more sought after than gold; they are truly hard currency.

Jiang Shushu finally chose the watch based on various comprehensive factors such as price, size, safety, etc.

Jiang Shushu searched for authentic retro watches, compared more than a dozen, and finally spent 99 yuan to buy a women's watch (they were having a 10th anniversary promotion, the original price was 399 yuan).

It would be a lie for Jiang Shushu to say he didn't feel bad spending 99 yuan, but for the sake of a better life in the future, he had to buy a good watch. If he bought one for thirty or forty yuan, it might break after just a few months of use. That would be embarrassing. I guess people who spend several months' salary on a watch would want to kill themselves with a knife. He didn't want to leave himself with such a big hidden danger just to save a few dozen yuan. The thought of it was not worth it.

After buying the watch, Jiang Shushu took another look at the balance, which was 391.1 yuan.

The only thing left was food, and Jiang Shushu bought what he had planned.

Staple food: 60 jin of rice, 120 yuan; 5 jin of white flour, 15 yuan; 1.2 jin of noodles, 6 yuan.

Meat: 5 jin of fatty pork, 30 yuan; more than 7 jin of pork belly, 80 yuan; one chicken, 40 yuan; one duck, 50 yuan; 10 eggs plus 10 duck eggs, 19 yuan.

After Jiang Shushu bought the meat he had been craving, he took a look at the balance: 31.1 yuan.

When Jiang Shushu saw that there was only 31.1 yuan left, she felt disappointed because she still had a lot of things to buy.

Jiang Shushu searched online for several minutes before finding a common medicine combination: 3 antipyretic pills + 3 packets of 999 cold medicine + 2 packets of antidiarrheal medicine + 100ml of alcohol, for 11.9 yuan. Jiang Shushu bought it immediately.

Balance: 19.2 yuan.

I have 19.2 yuan left. What should I buy? Yes, the food is bad, so I need to buy some supplements.

Jiang Shushu searched and searched, and found a satisfactory combination: 2 taels of red dates + 1 tael of wolfberries + six cubes of brown sugar, for 14 yuan. Jiang Shushu bought it immediately.

Yes, I heard that salt was not available in the past. Now that oil is available, how can we live without salt? Jiang Shushu spent another 2 yuan to buy half a pound of salt.

Balance: 3.2 yuan.

Jiang Shushu thought about it and spent three yuan to buy two steamed buns and a bottle of mineral water.
