Chapter 32: Buying a Watch at the Supply and Marketing Cooperative



As the bell for the end of get off work rang, the staff of the Finance Department left their seats one after another.

The two married colleagues left first, and the remaining girls had already packed their things and were ready to leave work on time.

"Let's go shopping first. I heard that the supply and marketing cooperative has received a batch of new clothes. I want to go and have a look. What about you guys?" Li Meili's cousin works at the supply and marketing cooperative, so she is always the first to know when there are any good things.

"Are there really new clothes? Then I want to go see them too."

"Why would I lie to you? My cousin said this batch of new clothes has beautiful designs. They just arrived today. Let's go quickly, otherwise the good ones will be picked up."

"Okay, okay."

Lin Siya also had something she wanted to buy, that was a watch. All the watches she had used before were those she had plundered from others, but these watches could not be displayed openly.

In order to make things more convenient, she planned to buy a watch. She didn't buy one before because she didn't have a watch ticket.

Just this morning when I signed in to the system, a watch ticket appeared, which was just in time of relief.

The group decided to go to the supply and marketing cooperative first and then have dinner, otherwise the supply and marketing cooperative would have been closed by the time they finished their meal.

None of them had bicycles, so if they wanted to go to the supply and marketing cooperative, they could only take the bus or walk. Walking was too far, so they discussed it and decided to take the bus.

The smell on the bus was a bit strong, but fortunately it was fast enough, so when they arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative, there was still an hour before it closed.

Maybe because it was just the time when people were getting off work, there were quite a lot of people in the supply and marketing cooperative, especially the counter selling ready-made clothes, which was surrounded by people. It seemed that the news of the new products had been known to many people.

"Oh, what should I do? Why are there so many people?" Lou Nana wanted to back out when she saw so many people, but when she thought of her beautiful new clothes, she felt reluctant.

"It's okay, we'll squeeze in."

Several girls squeezed in together, and after some effort, they finally got to the front of the counter.

"Comrade, please take down those two pieces of clothing and have a look at them."

Li Meili noticed at a glance a dark green tweed coat and a camel-colored windbreaker hanging there. She had never seen these two pieces of clothing before, and both were very beautiful in style and color.

Although the salesperson selling clothes knew Li Meili, there were so many people staring at her at the time, so she definitely couldn't say openly that the two of them knew each other.

"Both of these dresses are in their smallest size. Comrade, would you like to see something else?"

When Li Meili heard that only the smallest size was left for these two pieces of clothing, she was immediately deflated.

Although she is not fat, no, it should be said that in this era few people are fat, and there is no need to worry about obesity at all. After all, being able to eat enough every day is already good enough. Although Li Meili is not fat, she has a big frame and cannot wear small-sized clothes. She has to wear at least medium-sized clothes.

Li Meili showed a disappointed expression, but Lou Nana's eyes lit up beside her.

She was petite to begin with, and the smallest size of clothes fit her perfectly.

So Lou Nana quickly said, "Comrade, could you please take off your camel-colored windbreaker and let me try it on?"

The salesperson took the clothes off and handed them to her, and reminded her, "Don't try them on. Don't get them dirty."

"OK!"

After hearing what the salesperson said, Lou Nana was not angry, because at this time, you are not allowed to try on clothes. It is already very good to be able to take the clothes off and try them on, and this is also because everyone is acquaintance.

Lou Nana tried on the windbreaker and asked for everyone's opinion.

"I think it's good, the style is very nice!"

"I think it looks good too!" Xu Xiaoling was also tempted, but when she thought about her limited money, she backed off. Such beautiful clothes must be expensive.

Things turned out just as she expected. This camel-colored windbreaker didn't require a ticket, but it was really not cheap, costing 68 yuan, which was almost two months' salary for her.

After hearing the price, Lou Nana was a little hesitant. She thought the dress might be very expensive, but she didn't expect it to be so expensive.

Of course, the salesperson saw their hesitation and spoke up.

"Although this dress is expensive, the quality is completely different from ordinary clothes. If you take good care of it, you can wear it for at least ten years, and the style will never go out of style."

After hearing what the salesperson said, Lin Siya agreed. After all, this style of trench coat is really not easy to go out of style. The styles of trench coats decades later are also based on this style. This is equivalent to a classic style.

But she did not persuade Lou Na to buy the dress. After all, the dress was really not cheap!

In the end, Lou Nana gritted her teeth and bought the dress. After all, there is only one wedding in a lifetime, and she didn't want to have any regrets.

Then they went shopping somewhere else, while Lin Siya went directly to the second floor.

The second floor is where luxury goods are sold, including radios, sewing machines, watches, bicycles and so on. These things are very expensive and not affordable for ordinary families. Therefore, there are far fewer people here than downstairs.

She arrived at the watch counter, but there was no one there except a salesperson knitting.

"Hello comrade, I'd like to see my watch."

When the saleswoman heard what Lin Siya said, she quickly stuffed the sweater into the counter.
