The salesperson was familiar with the people who usually came to the bicycle counter.
After all, bicycles were big items in those days, and most people would come and look at them several times in advance before they could scrape together enough money to buy one.
Unexpectedly, the two young people wanted to buy it directly this time. She immediately felt that they were teasing her.
So I said again, "If you need a bicycle ticket, it will cost 150 yuan more."
Lu Xia nodded, and without hesitation, he took out the money and tickets he had prepared.
Seeing her actions, the salesperson finally realized that they were really planning to buy. He was surprised and envious, but this time he didn't delay. After receiving the money and the ticket, he stood up and issued her a ticket.
Then the two of them pushed the bicycles away amid the envious looks of the salesperson and others.
After they came out, they were still surrounded by people. It was really that bicycles are like BMWs these days, and there are very few people who can afford them and have tickets.
Both of them were a little uncomfortable with it, but luckily they quickly arrived at the vehicle management office, provided the purchase proof from the department store, and then they were given a number, which was equivalent to a license plate, and then they could ride their bicycles on the road.
Lu Xia and his friend finally breathed a sigh of relief after they finished. Since they had a lot of other things at home, they didn't buy anything else for the time being and went straight to the station.

The road from the county to the village is long and mountainous, so riding a bike back is not practical, so they plan to take a bus back.
Nowadays, there are not so many rules on buses. People bring chickens, ducks, fish and sheep on board, but this is the first time someone brought a bicycle, so it was no surprise that Lu Xia and the others were onlookers again.
Especially those who knew them in the village, asked them questions along the way with envy and surprise.
Lu Xia felt a buzzing in his head until he got off the car.
Fortunately, I arrived in town and was finally able to ride my bike back.
Jiang Junmo was riding the bike, with Lu Xia sitting on the back seat. Originally, she was afraid that he would get tired, so she planned to ride herself, but seeing that Jiang Junmo insisted, Lu Xia let him ride. Fortunately, the distance was close, and they arrived at the village in more than ten minutes by bike.
After entering the village, we were surrounded by onlookers again, as expected.
A group of children even ran around them, making it impossible for them to ride the bikes and they could only push them.
In fact, it is no wonder that the villagers were surprised. There is only one bicycle in the entire Dayingshan Village, and it is the common property of the village branch. People only ride it when they need to do something, otherwise they are reluctant to use it.
No one expected that these two young educated youth, who had just gone to the countryside not long ago, could actually afford to buy bicycles.
You see, after they got married, they built a house and bought a bicycle. How much money did this cost?
The villagers were extremely envious and asked them where the tickets came from. Some of those whose families were better off even asked if they could help them get another one.
Lu Xia wanted to get rid of them by herself, but Jiang Junmo spoke up unexpectedly, "My family has been saving this bicycle ticket for several years. If I hadn't gotten married, they wouldn't have been willing to give it to me. In fact, it's not mine. It's a betrothal gift my family prepared for Lu Zhiqing."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone looked at Lu Xia with even more envy. No one had expected that despite the long distance, Jiang Junmo's family still gave Lu Xia a betrothal gift.
It also proves that his family conditions are good.
After Lu Xia and his companions finally got rid of the villagers, they were surrounded by the educated youth again.
When they heard that they had bought bicycles, the educated youth all came out to watch the fun.
They all exclaimed: "You actually bought a bicycle, you must be rich!"
Lu Xia smiled sheepishly, "It was bought by Jiang Zhiqing's family. We don't have much money."
"Isn't that the same?"
"Yes, but it is more convenient for us to go out now that we have bicycles. Otherwise, it is too tiring to walk every time we go out."
"Yes, yes. I plan to ask Jiang Zhiqing to borrow money when I go out next time. Jiang Zhiqing shouldn't disagree, right?"
