Chapter 98 Buying Stamps



Seeing the short queue, Song Tanglan hurriedly took her package and went to queue. After waiting for less than 10 minutes, it was finally her turn.

"Comrade, are you sending or picking up a package?"

Song Tanglan didn't care about her somewhat cold attitude. She handed the package to her and said, "Send it."

The staff at the window was surprised to see such a large package, but did not ask any questions. Instead, they opened the package and checked it.

When she saw what was inside, her face was immediately filled with envy. There was so much meat inside. Even someone like her who had a job couldn't buy meat. This little girl took out so much at once. How could she not be envious?

Check everything, wrap the package, and then speak after verifying the information.

"Comrade Song Tanglan, right? Here's a letter for you. Please pay the shipping fee."

"Okay, okay." Song Tanglan handed over the money and took the letter from her hand. Seeing the address on it, she realized it was from her family, so she quickly put it into the small bag she was carrying.

The staff took the money and then took out the stamps and put them on the package.

When Song Tanglan saw the stamps on it, his eyes suddenly lit up and he asked quietly, "Comrade, are you selling stamps?"

"Sell it, how much do you want?" The staff member didn't take her question seriously and just answered subconsciously.

Some people usually buy a few extra stamps and keep them at home so that it is more convenient when sending letters.

"Comrade, I have a stamp collecting habit. Can I just buy one?"

Song Tanglan's words shocked the staff. It was her first time meeting such a big customer, but she suppressed her surprise when she saw the people queuing behind her. "Let's talk over here. Xiao Yang, come and help me cover for a while."

"Okay, Sister Tian."

The staff took Song Tanglan to a less crowded place and said, "Are you sure you want to buy the entire edition? It's going to cost a lot of money."

"Of course, money can't buy what's in your heart. Seeing this large set of stamps will make me happy for a long time." Song Tanglan blurted out the lie, thinking that the man in front of her would take her to buy a few more sets of stamps.

"Since you really want it, I'll tell you honestly. There are 50 stamps in a sheet, and each stamp costs 20 cents, so a sheet costs 10 yuan. If you want it, I'll get it for you now." Although the staff member was very happy, she was also afraid that this person was playing tricks on her, and looked at her suspiciously.

Song Tanglan didn't care about her doubtful look and made the decision directly: "Okay, I want it."

Seeing that she really wanted it, the staff happily took her to choose the style of stamps.

When Song Tanglan saw her open the cabinet and looked at the several versions of stamps on it, her eyes suddenly lit up.

"Comrade, I want a copy of each pattern?"

"Really? Are you sure you're not kidding me?" Sister Tian still couldn't believe that she had met a sucker.

"Of course." Song Tanglan ignored her look of looking at a prodigal. She knew the future value of these stamps. If she collected them now, it would not be a loss whether she sold them or kept them.

Sister Tian really wanted it, so she was very happy and gave her the latest version of each item, a total of 5 styles.

Song Tanglan spent 50 yuan this time. She felt a little painful about spending so much money at once, but when she saw those stamps and thought about their future value, she suddenly didn't feel sad anymore.

Seeing her pay so readily, Sister Tian thought of the several stamps in the warehouse that could not be issued. She looked around and saw no one, so she whispered:

"I have a few copies that were misprinted. Would you like to take a look? But don't worry, these are intact and not damaged. They are also not as expensive as these. They are only 8 yuan each. Do you want to take a look?"

Song Tanglan was curious about what kind of stamps Sister Tian was promoting. "Show them to me. If they suit my taste, I'll take them."

"Okay, wait for me here for a while."

After Sister Tian finished speaking, she hurried into a room. After a while, she took out a book full of red stamps. Looking at the lotus printed on it, although Song Tanglan didn't know what its future value would be, she decided to buy it.

"Okay, I want this one too. How many do you have?"

"There are 5 copies in stock."

"If you offer a lower price, I'll take them all." Song Tanglan knew that the stamps would pile up in stock, which meant they were useless now. She was a very stingy person and didn't want to be taken advantage of, so the cheaper the better.

"Girl, I see you're so generous, how about this, 7 yuan per copy?"

"5 yuan. If it's okay, I'll take all of them. If not, forget it. Although these flowers are beautiful, they are not absolutely necessary."

Seeing how determined she was, Sister Tian thought that it would be useless anyway, so she nodded in agreement.

"Okay, sister, come to me again if you need stamps next time."

"Okay, Sister Tian, ​​if there are any new stamps, you can also contact me." Song Tanglan paid the money and put the stamps into the backpack.

"Okay, Sister Song."

Sister Tian smiled and sent the big customer out the door, then ran back to the office happily to share it with her boss.

Song Tanglan also found a safe place and put the stamps in the backpack into the space. He sorted out the bills that were about to expire in his mind and spent them all later.

Otherwise, if it expires, it will become a piece of waste paper. Song Tanglan walked slowly to the supply and marketing cooperative. There were still many people in the supply and marketing cooperative. She also saw acquaintances in the team, but she did not go forward to talk. Instead, she stood behind them silently.

When she found a suitable opportunity, she immediately squeezed in. When it was finally her turn, she told them what she needed.

"Comrade, I need two soaps, one soap, two bottles of vanishing cream, two rolls of toilet paper, a bottle of Maotai, two packets of salt, two pounds of brown sugar, a row of batteries, two pounds of soy sauce, one pound of egg cake, and a can of malted milk."
