Chapter 47: Buying rice was humiliated (PK
Lin Yuelan had five or six hundred taels of silver in her arms and went shopping immediately.
The first thing Lin Yuelan wanted to buy was definitely food.
Food in the end of the world, even for a piece of bread, may betray the companion and will only snatch the only bread.
In the end of the world, rice has become a scarce thing.
Except for the senior leaders of the base who are some of the rice handed over by the people under the base to store it, ordinary people can't even smell the rice smell.
Lin Yuelan is from the south and grew up eating rice since she was a child.
However, in the five years of the end of the world, she could eat rice in a very small number of times.
Because almost every mission snatched rice must be handed over, and the rice left in the secret was given to the two bitches, and she continued to chew a bitch of moldy bread.
Unless you really want to eat rice, you will hide it and secretly cook the rice hidden in the space to eat.
In the end of the world, many people have a more sensitive sense of smell than a dog.
Therefore, after eating it once, you must wash and remove the smell of rice. Otherwise, if you are reported and eat rice, there will be no good results.
Thinking about it now, Lin Yuelan felt that she was so stupid and cheap at the beginning. She did everything for the two men and women, but she got their joint betrayal.
However, since she has started again, she will no longer treat herself badly. She will never be stingy with food, dress well, and use it well.
Lin Yuelan walked to the grain shop and looked at the white rice. Lin Yuelan swallowed.
I really want to eat rice.
"Shopkeeper, how do you sell these rice?" Lin Yuelan asked in the direction of the rice.
A fat man in his thirties walked out and looked at Lin Yuelan's thick clothes and linen, an old and torn child.
This little kid is obviously a poor man.
A poor man actually wants to eat rice.
What a joke!
The expression of contempt on his face showed his contempt, and he looked at Lin Yuelan with arrogance and disdain, "Go, go, go, a poor man actually wants to buy rice."
When Lin Yuelan saw the man's contemptuous look, a sneer appeared on her little face, and a tender voice asked with a stern voice.
"The shopkeeper has such a good attitude. How can I tell that this girl is a poor person? Also, why can't the poor buy rice? Are you despising all the poor? But boss, you have to know that in our Ning'an Town, there are more than 90% of the poor?"
Lin Yuelan said this to arouse the dissatisfaction of other poor people around her.
Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking, a woman wearing a patch said loudly, "Shopkeeper Chen, I said that the rice I bought from you the day before yesterday was short of weight. It turned out that it was because she looked down on us poor people and made it for me!"
A man came out and said, "I said I bought japonica rice, but why did it taste not so fragrant? Shopkeeper Chen, did you exchange the indica rice for my japonica rice, and then sell it to me at the price of japonica rice?"
Although japonica rice and indica rice are both rice, the tastes of the two are different!
Generally speaking, indica rice has poor viscosity, long and narrow grains, and a bit rough texture, which is not very good; while japonica rice has a sticky nature, short and round grains, and has a more fragrant taste.
The boss of the rice shop immediately became gloomy as he heard what he was saying about him.
He said sternly, "Who said I am short of weight? You can take it back and weigh it?" It's been so many days, even if those poor people are reluctant to eat it, they will definitely try it once they buy it back. So, it's certain that they are short of weight.
The shopkeeper turned his head and looked at the poor man who said he had changed the rice, and said without a good look.
"Don't you recognize the indica rice and japonica rice? You have finished eating it. Now tell me, I will replace the rice you bought? Then, do you want me to compensate? Humph, let me tell you, there is no such good thing in this world.
Poor people are poor people. If you buy such a little rice, you want to take the opportunity to blackmail them!"
When I heard the last sentence from Manager Chen, those people were about to turn blue.
He pointed at the shopkeeper Chen and cursed, "You are so bullying! You will never come to you to buy rice again. Anyway, he looks down on me and others, and he dislikes the little people who buy rice."
"Yes, I won't buy it here!"
"I came here to buy rice and earned money from him. I looked down on us and wanted to be honest in front of him. We are poor, but we are not so despicable!"
"That's right, I won't buy it here!"
The people around them said loudly that they couldn't buy it here.
Only then did the shopkeeper Chen realize that the situation was serious.
Although he looked down on the poor, his daily business was supported by these poor people, and those rich people were only a few.
If no one comes to him to buy rice, he will do a shitty business.
Thinking of this, Manager Chen was angry and caused the culprit Lin Yuelan, and cursed, "What are you sowing here, you little kid? When did I look down on the poor?"
Lin Yuelan curled her lips and said to Zhangguan Chen with a very innocent and aggrieved look, "Shopkeeper Chen, didn't you just say, go and go, what rice is a poor man buying? Have you forgotten so quickly?"
Manager Chen pointed at Lin Yuelan and shouted, "I'm just talking about you! Look at you, you are tattered, pale and thin, how can you have the money to buy rice? Is this also wrong?"
But as soon as his voice came to an end, someone burst into laughter.
At first glance, Manager Chen turned out to be the eldest son of Mr. Liu in the town.
He immediately stepped forward and bowed, and said with a flattering smile, "Master Liu, are you here to buy rice too?"
The shopkeeper Chen called Master Liu, who was a 16-year-old boy. Perhaps he had good care, fair skin, fair face, round face, big eyes, and smiled, and was particularly cute.
Master Liu smiled and said to Manager Chen, "Shopkeeper Chen, I'm not here to buy rice. I'm just following this little girl to see her come to buy rice. Manager Chen, you probably don't know that this child sold a big tiger in the morning and got 380 taels of silver. So, she is not the poor person you call me now!"
Storekeeper Chen felt like he was thundered!
However, he is a businessman and has a thick-skinned face. He immediately stepped forward and apologized to Lin Yuelan and said, "Miss, Chen was just so ignorant of Gu Fengshan. Please forgive me for your recklessness just now!"
Lin Yuelan shook her head and said, "Shopkeeper Chen, you are wrong. I am not an adult, so I have no great forgiveness!" Then, she changed her mind and continued, "Whose business is not to do? Since Storekeeper Chen does not welcome me, a poor man, I can only find a place to welcome me!"
Then, Lin Yuelan went to Chen Ji Grain Store's rival, Yunxiang Grain Store, with the stiff expression and angry eyes of everyone, especially Storekeeper Chen.
What made Manager Chen even vomit blood was that the poor child he had in his eyes bought ten stones at his opponent's family. In Longyan Country, one stone was equivalent to 53 kilograms in modern times, so Lin Yuelan bought ten stones, which was equivalent to more than 1,000 kilograms.
This is his sales in half a year, and I don’t know if there are so many.
However, Store Manager Chen did not reflect on his own behavior, but became resentful to Lin Yuelan.
Not only did he say that he had money for this person, he was just to humiliate him.
After that, when Lin Yuelan opened a shop, he caused a lot of trouble.
This is a later story, so I won't mention it for now.
