He looked at the shelf and saw that there was only one flashlight left, so he bought it, as if it was specially saved for him.
"Sister Zhao, I want this flashlight. Get some batteries."
After saying that, he handed the industrial voucher to Zhao Xiaoling.
"That's amazing! You can even get an industrial voucher. I put a lot of effort into getting one."
Li Mingqing smiled and said, "Keep a low profile."
He took the flashlight, removed the battery, and turned on the switch with ease. There was no problem at all.
"Sister Zhao, when do you think our town will have electricity?"
"That's hard to say. We can't know what's going on up there."
"It will be much more convenient once electricity is available. When will it be over to light kerosene lamps all day?"
Zhao Xiaoling couldn't help laughing and said, "A grown man like you are afraid of the dark?"
"That's not what I meant. I see that every household in the county has electricity, so it's bright at night."
"Don't we have candles here? If you don't like using kerosene lamps, you can buy some candles. Even though using candles is not a good idea, you have enough money."
"Let's talk about it after the flashlight runs out of battery."
He fiddled with the flashlight for a while. It was heavy, like half a brick, and could be used as a weapon.
Zhao Xiaoling glanced at Li Mingqing from time to time, as if she had something to say.
"Sister Zhao, just say whatever you want to say."
"I just wanted to ask if you still have any rice. The rice I exchanged from you last time is almost gone."
She said very embarrassedly that food was hard to come by these days.
“There’s no rice.”
Zhao Xiaoling had expected this, but she was still a little disappointed.
She was about to speak when she heard, "Do you want some wheat?"
"Really?" Surprised.
"Of course it's true. How could I lie to you? It's just that you have to grind the wheat into flour yourself."
"Thank you so much, it's nothing."
"I'll bring it to you tomorrow, one hundred pounds."
"Okay, okay, it's settled."
Zhao Xiaoling was extremely happy. She didn't expect that Li Mingqing actually had wheat.
Anyway, both of them were very happy, one had food and the other had money.
