Chapter 290: Educated Youth vs. Village Grass 21
He was mainly worried about spending too much money, after all, every penny was hard-earned.
"If we can't finish it, we can put it in the lunch box and take it back. We can eat it in the evening." Qin Zhan actually wanted to eat all these delicacies in one meal. He was worried that the weather was too hot and the food would get stuffy in the lunch box and easily go bad.
But he has his own little secret, he is a man with space, with cheats.
If that doesn't work, put the food in the space.
Qin Zhan asked Song Zibai to find a place to sit down and rest, while he walked towards the window where people could buy food.
"Sister, give me two pounds of dumplings, a portion of pork ribs, a portion of braised pork, and a plate of stir-fried vegetables." After Qin Zhan said this, he took out two pieces of milk candy from his pocket and handed them to his elder sister.
When the eldest sister saw it, her eyes lit up immediately. She could receive two extra candies, and her attitude immediately became extremely enthusiastic.
"Okay, the total is four yuan and thirty cents, plus one pound of meat coupons and half a pound of grain coupons." The eldest sister said with a smile on her face.
Qin Zhan hurriedly paid the money, politely thanked the elder sister, then walked towards where Song Zibai was sitting and waited quietly beside him.
After a while, the food was ready.
At this time, many workers came to the state-owned restaurant to eat.
As soon as they saw the sumptuous meal on Qin Zhan and Song Zibai's table, their eyes widened and they couldn't help swallowing.
This meal costs more than four dollars. In their eyes, it is such a luxury.
Qin Zhan and Song Zibai were eating quietly. Qin Zhan would pick up some meat for Song Zibai from time to time, as he was afraid that Song Zibai would be reluctant to eat it.
"Zibai, eat more. It's so hot today. It would be a shame if the food goes bad by night. Let's eat as much as we can. If we can't finish it, we can take it back." Qin Zhan looked at Song Zibai gently and said.
When Song Zibai heard this, he thought it made sense. In such hot weather, if the food went bad, it would be a real waste.
The meal went on peacefully, without any disturbance, totally unlike the scenes depicted in novels where a naughty kid would suddenly appear to snatch something, causing chaos.
In the Northeast, most people are warm and hospitable, but occasionally there are a few extreme people. But if you look closely, those extreme behaviors are mostly caused by poverty.
Take Qin Zhan for example. He felt that the people here were so hospitable to him simply because he was like a boy giving away money.
After all, who can resist a benefit? And who would resist a benefit?
"Zibai, wait here for a while, I'll go get some things." Qin Zhan said as he thought about finding a safe place to get the bicycle out first, and then go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some things.
Finally, he asked Song Zibai to wait for him at the supply and marketing cooperative, and then he would find an excuse to go to the black market and get some rice and flour.
About ten minutes later, Qin Zhan rushed back to pick up Song Zibai.
Song Zibai was holding the unfinished lunch boxes of the two people in his hands. As soon as he went out, he saw Qin Zhan walking towards a bicycle.
"Why are you standing there? Get on, I'll carry you." Qin Zhan stood in the sun, grinning and showing his big white teeth, and shouted at Song Zibai with a smile.
"Did you go buy a bicycle just now?" Song Zibai's face was full of surprise, his eyes wide open.
"Isn't this a must-have for a wedding? But I got it in Montenegro." Qin Zhan leaned close to Song Zibai's ear and whispered in a low voice, as if he was afraid that others would hear the secret.
"You, you actually went to that kind of place? You'll be finished if you get caught." Song Zibai was shocked and scared. He quickly covered his mouth with his hands and lowered his voice unconsciously, for fear that if he spoke a little louder, others would hear him.
"It's okay, it's very safe. I also bought other things. I'll pick them up after we finish visiting the supply and marketing cooperative." After hearing this, Song Zibai didn't say anything else.
At this point, I'm lucky I wasn't caught.
Sitting on the back seat of Qin Zhan's bicycle, Song Zibai felt like it was all a dream.
This is his first time riding a bicycle.
Although Qin Zhan has only been here for two days, he feels that his living standard has improved like a rocket.
The two came to the supply and marketing cooperative. Qin Zhan stood in the garment area, looking at the white Dacron shirts and army green short-sleeved shirts.
Although he felt that these clothes might not be very comfortable to wear, he also knew that this was the most popular style at the moment.
"This piece of clothing is five dollars a piece. Can you afford it?" The salesperson raised his head and glanced at Song Zibai. Seeing that his clothes had been washed white and were patched, his eyes were immediately filled with disdain.
"What does it have to do with you whether we can afford it or not? I want to see this dress. As a salesperson, how can I know if it fits me if you don't show it to me?" Qin Zhan was immediately furious when he saw her looking down on Song Zibai. He clenched his fists and wanted to punch her.
"Hmph, you country bumpkin. If it gets dirty after you look at it and you don't buy it, how can I sell it to you?" After the salesperson said this, he looked up at Qin Zhan's clothes and was stunned.
