Chapter 35: Going to the City to Sell Vegetables (2/2)



He was originally tall, his fists were clenched tightly, his eyes were wide open, and you could see that they were filled with horrible red bloodshot.

If he were in this state, most people would be scared.

The saleswoman was just a little girl, she had never seen anyone with such a bad temper.

Liu Yu didn't stop him either.

She felt that people like the salesperson who were arrogant and rude deserved to be punished.

Sure enough, someone quickly called the manager over and asked him to resolve the matter.

More people gathered around, wanting to see how the matter would end.

When the girl saw the manager coming, she immediately said to him:

"This country bumpkin is so scary, manager, should we call the police?"

"Why report to the police? Xiao Yang, what's wrong with you?

Why do you quarrel with customers every other day?

How can you serve the people well like this?"

Fortunately, this manager has some knowledge.

Then, the manager tried to comfort Zhou Zheng:

"Mr. Li, please don't be angry. Let's talk it over. Okay?"

"Oh, I just want this little girl to apologize to my wife.

Ask her what she just said?

You call us country bumpkins, then what are you?

Without us country folks, you wouldn't even have shit to eat!"

Zhou Zheng had tried not to curse before, but he couldn't help it now.

The saleswoman was immediately moved to tears by his words.

He was so arrogant just now, but when he met someone even more arrogant, he immediately turned into a coward.

The manager had to smooth things over:

"It was our salesperson who was wrong, please calm down, Mr.

What do you want to buy? I'll let other salespeople serve you, okay?"

Other customers nearby also started speaking in Gongyu dialect:

"Judging people by appearance and looking down on country folk is really unacceptable."

“That’s right, you supply and marketing companies also serve the people.

Who are the people? The working people are all farmers. Who are we looking down upon?"

“Alas, those with bad attitudes should have been criticized and educated long ago.

If you don't work hard, you will be fired sooner or later!"

Liu Yu saw so many people speaking for them and felt that people's thoughts in this era were still relatively simple and positive.

People like the saleswoman who look down on others are probably a minority.

But the urban-rural gap does exist.

This is true both now and in the future.

Rural people are even more isolated from information in this era. It is impossible for them to dress brightly and beautifully, get a salary and have food to eat like people in the city.

Farmers' lives will only become promising after policies improve.

Liu Yu was thinking silently when the new salesperson came over. His attitude was indeed very enthusiastic:

"Tell me what you two want to buy."

The female salesperson named Yang had no choice but to apologize to Liu Yuqiu.

Liu Yu didn't say much, just:

"Next time, just don't look down on us country folk.

No one is nobler than anyone else."

This statement won everyone's approving glances.

Next, Zhou Zheng and Liu Yu picked out several things together.

There are hair bands, notebooks and pencils.

Liu Yu wanted a large bottle of shampoo, because it can be used by everyone in the family.

I also bought some white sugar and brown sugar.

With the meat coupons in hand, the two men went to the next door market, used the money and coupons to buy two pounds of meat, tied it with a straw rope, and threw it into the snakeskin bag.

After buying good things, there wasn’t much left of the ten-dollar Great Unity coupon.

Liu Yu pocketed the remaining money and had Zhou Zheng drive him out of the city.

It was almost noon and the sun was high in the sky.
