Back to the 70s: My Wife is Both Fierce and Crazy

Chapter 154 Good things should be collected
Bai Yong, being a boy, didn't want to run around with everyone. "Big sister, don't look at me, I can't help you with the work." He still had to help his third sister, otherwise she would beat him.

Zhang Cuicui was amused by the two little ones, "Haha, Xiaojing, your younger brother and sister are so funny, so well-behaved and obedient."

After saying that, she reached out and pinched their little faces; they were smooth and easy to touch.

"Be good, and when Sister Cui Cui comes back later, she'll bring you some delicious food, okay?"

There's no shortage of food at home now, and Bai Jing hasn't neglected her younger siblings, preparing plenty of snacks for them at home.

"No need, Sister Cui Cui, we have some at home."

The two rubbed their faces, looking at Zhang Cuicui with resentment.

"Don't be so polite with your older sister, let me buy you some peanut brittle."

This stuff is ridiculously expensive, and the portions are small; you have to fight for it to get it.

Bai Jingzhen really didn't know where she got the audacity to make that promise.

The two of them pushed a bicycle out the door; Zhang Cuicui rode the bicycle, and Bai Jing sat behind her.

These days, supply and marketing cooperatives are everywhere, and they all have a monopoly. There is a supply and marketing cooperative in Yonghong Street. Since most of the residents here are family compounds, the cooperative is quite large.

When the two arrived, the place was already packed with people.

Seeing this scene, Bai Jing felt a chill run down her spine. If it weren't for accompanying Zhang Cuicui, she really wouldn't have wanted to squeeze in.

It's bad enough that you have to squeeze in, but sometimes the things you want to buy aren't even available. Isn't that infuriating? You squeeze for ages and still can't buy what you need.

"Come on, don't just stand there like an idiot. My mom gave me a mission this year, a mission I worked so hard to get. You can't let me fail."

As the Lunar New Year approaches, there's more and more chores to do at home. She just doesn't like those washing and scrubbing tasks, so she took on the job of shopping instead.

Bai Jing looked at the excitement in her eyes and didn't know what to say.

"Show me the list." When it comes to things to buy for the family, if it's not the person in charge who makes the purchases, a list will usually be drawn up.

Zhang Cuicui didn't hesitate and directly took out the list her mother had written for her from her cloth bag.

“Look, there are more than ten kinds.” Zhang Cuicui felt that her mother was saving up a year’s worth of money to spend in one day. “I don’t know if a supply and marketing cooperative could buy them all.”

Bai Jing took the list and looked at it; many of the items were similar to those she had given before.

It's just that I have more sugar than I would buy myself.

"No, why did Auntie buy so much sugar?" Bai Jing asked Zhang Cuicui, pointing to the sign that said "Ten Jin of Brown Sugar".

Zhang Cuicui burst out laughing as soon as she saw it. "Haha, this is obviously not something my mother wrote." Although she was smiling, there was a hint of disdain in her eyes.

"What's wrong?" Bai Jing was a sensitive person and naturally noticed that something was wrong with her.

"It's nothing." Zhang Cuicui waved her hand. Go ahead and buy it; she doesn't need the money for a little candy.

"These things are in the grocery section, you buy them for me, I'll get the rest." With that, Zhang Cuicui handed the money and coupons to Bai Jing.

Bai Jing naturally wouldn't refuse, after all, even the closest friends need to maintain a certain sense of boundaries.

Zhang Cuicui wasn't short of money, so she naturally wouldn't care about this small amount.

"Okay, meet on the second floor in a bit." The second floor sells ready-made clothes and some expensive items, such as cigarettes and alcohol.

"it is good."

In about an hour, Bai Jing finished buying everything. She had some money left over from the money Zhang Cuicui had given her, so she carried the things upstairs.

A service staff member was standing at the entrance on the second floor; she wasn't there to stop anyone.

They just keep an eye on people to prevent them from bringing dangerous items upstairs, such as kitchen knives.

When Bai Jing walked past her, she glanced at what Bai Jing was carrying, then stopped paying attention and focused her gaze downstairs.

As if drawn by the lively atmosphere downstairs, they went up to the second floor, where the tobacco and alcohol section came into view.

Bai Jing was immediately drawn to the Moutai on it.

She hurriedly searched through her own space. If she remembered correctly, she seemed to have quite a few wine tickets, at least twenty or so, and they were first-class wine tickets.

It would be perfect to use it to buy Moutai.

Carrying my things, I approached the liquor cabinet. At that moment, there were people buying drinks in front of the counter.

However, not many people bought them.

As Bai Jing approached, a waiter poked his head out from behind the counter.

"Hello comrade, what kind of wine would you like to buy?" It was a young man.

You can tell at a glance that they've only been working for a short time.

Bai Jing glanced at him, then pointed to the Moutai displayed on top and asked, "How much is this liquor? What grade of liquor ticket do I need?"

She has first-class wine tickets, but what if the other party doesn't need them?

She could save money, wouldn't she?

"Hello comrade, are you talking about Moutai?" The sales clerk was shocked. There was nothing he could do. Most of the liquors like this were purchased internally by companies or some leaders. Although they were sold to outsiders, they were not many. Moreover, Bai Jing looked like a young girl, so she would never ask about this kind of thing.

"Yes." Bai Jing nodded.

The salesperson's smile faded slightly. "This requires a first-class liquor ticket. The price is different for each bottle. We currently have three types of Moutai here, each one is different. This one is only four yuan and fifty cents, this one is four yuan, and this one is six yuan."

But he still patiently quoted the price of each type of wine.

Bai Jing wasn't a connoisseur of fine wine in her past life, and even if she did drink, she couldn't possibly drink such good wine. Therefore, she doesn't understand the difference between Moutai and other types of liquor.

But she knew that Moutai from this era would be a valuable item in the next century. Even if its value wasn't much higher, it would still be a respectable item to use for entertaining guests.

Besides, it has system space, so the alcohol won't leak or anything if it's placed inside, so it's worth buying.

She's not short of money now, so she'll naturally buy whatever she wants; that's just how ordinary people are.

That's all the perspective she has right now.

"Wait a minute." Bai Jing put the things in her hand on the ground, and then, under the cover of the cloth bag, took out all her wine tickets from her spatial storage.

There are a lot of them.

She first counted out all the first-class wine tickets and then found that there were about twenty-seven of them.

There were a few more than she had estimated, but that didn't matter.

"I have twenty-seven tickets. I'll take a little of each kind of wine." Bai Jing pushed the tickets aside and then smiled at the sales clerk, saying, "Please calculate how much it will cost for me."

The sales clerk was also surprised that she had so many wine coupons.

"Hey comrade, you have over twenty bills here. Are you really going to buy Moutai all of them? These liquors aren't cheap." He swallowed hard. Whose family is this girl? She's so extravagant.

Bai Jing had no idea that she had already been labeled as a spendthrift woman.

"Take it all, is there enough wine?" She wasn't worried about not having enough money, she was worried about not having enough wine.

However, considering the price of Moutai these days, she plans to collect some from time to time.

Whether you drink it or collect it, it is very valuable.

"That's enough, the goods just arrived today." There are definitely more than twenty bottles, and even more. Excluding those ordered by leaders and units, he has at least thirty bottles left.

Selling more than twenty bottles at once is certainly enough.
