Chapter 122 Trust Store Asking Price, Jade Pendant
Chapter 122 Trust Store Asking Price, Jade Pendant
Because it not only requires glutinous rice flour, but also is fried in oil, and finally coated with white sugar.
These things are all good things at this time, and each of them is lacking in many families.
Li Jiayi locked the door from the inside, lay down on the bed, and then entered the space.
The space is still the same as before, with almost no changes. The only change is that there are more fruit trees in the orchard.
And it's not that the varieties have been increased, there are just a few more fruit trees.
There was no way. He couldn't get the fruits from the south for the time being, and even some of the fruits from the north were not available.
But he did get a good thing, that was sweet pole, yes, sweet pole.
This thing looks like sorghum, but it is different. It is called sweet sorghum in the north. I don’t know what it is called in the south.
This thing is not as crispy as sugarcane, but it is much sweeter than sugarcane. To be honest, Li Jiayi likes it very much.
He had gotten a few seeds from his hometown before, but he forgot about them and only recently remembered to plant them.
In fact, even the seeds look the same as sorghum rice. If the two are planted together, it is almost impossible to tell them apart.
First collect everything that needs to be collected, and then start slaughtering pigs, cattle, sheep, chickens, ducks and geese.
Now the circle is full, so we have to slaughter a part of it every day, and put the slaughtered meat into the static space.
Of course, there are exceptions, such as wild boars. Male wild boars with tusks are killed without any other processing.
Because this kind of thing has to be sold as a whole.
Then Li Jiayi started making spicy strips, but this time he didn’t make a lot, only about 100 pounds.
These are enough for this Sunday. As for snacks for the two sisters, they will be changed from spicy strips to glutinous rice strips in the future.
Fried food is called junk food by many people in later generations, but in this era, it is definitely a good thing.
Let’s knead the dough first, make beef tendon noodles, and then start making spicy strips.
By the time I finished making the spicy strips and put them into the static space, it was already past eleven o'clock. There was nothing I could do. Although a lot of things are just a matter of thought, it still takes a process!
Next is the glutinous rice noodles, which is much simpler and can mostly be done with the power of space, but frying still takes a lot of time.
However, he still managed to make the glutinous rice noodles before one o'clock in the morning, and he made a lot of them.
After cleaning up, I took a shower and went straight to bed.
At seven o'clock in the morning, Li Jiayi got up from the bed, practiced boxing in the space, and then took a shower.
When I came out of the space, I felt refreshed.
This is of course the effect of Lingquan Water, and the effect is particularly good.
After breakfast, my parents went out, of course not to work, but to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things.
It’s like this every month. I pick a Sunday and buy back the monthly quota.
Although their family doesn't really need it now, they still have to buy it, even if they don't need it.
First of all, of course, this is because we don’t want to attract other people’s attention and cause unnecessary trouble.
Second, buying these won’t go to waste. Don’t forget that this is an era of material shortages.
Nothing will be wasted. Even if you can't use it yourself, someone else can. You can exchange it with others or sell it.
At most, it’s just a trip to the pigeon market.
After Mom and Dad went out, Li Jiayi also went out, and brought Asheng and the other three with him.
Since my eldest and second sisters are at home, there is no need to leave them at home.
Of course, the main reason is that Li Jiayi needs them to follow him.
After coming out from the back door, he put Ah Sheng and the others into the space, and then rushed to the bus stop.
Because he knew that the little black fat guy and the others were going to Deshengmen today, so he could only go to Jianguomen.
I spent five cents to buy a trolleybus ticket and soon arrived at Jianguomen.
Seeing that it was still early, he did not go there directly, but came to a trust store here.
He has money on him now! He can definitely go to the trust store to have a look, just in case he comes across something he likes.
This trust store is also very large.
Although there are not many trust stores in the entire imperial capital, he found that each trust store is particularly large.
There was still a dazzling array of goods inside, and one could say that there was everything. However, this time he did not look at watches or anything like that, but went straight to the antiques.
Yes, there are antiques in the trust store, and quite a lot of them, not only a variety of antique furniture, but also a variety of antiques.
However, the antiques sold here are not particularly good, because the best ones are kept by the trust store itself.
Don't forget that the trust store is state-owned. If there are good things or things with research value, how could the state not keep them?
But even so, these antiques in the trust store are worth a lot of money.
Li Jiayi first looked at the furniture. There were so many of them, and they were made of all kinds of materials.
There are materials such as golden nanmu, huanghuali, and various mahogany materials.
Of course, there are also many made of ordinary materials, and trust stores are engaged in reselling business.
It’s just that it is state-owned and a legal industry.
"Uncle, how much is this furniture?" Li Jiayi asked a clerk.
The clerk was in his twenties. He felt a little unhappy when he heard someone calling him uncle, but when he saw that it was a child, his unhappiness disappeared.
"Little guy, are you asking on behalf of your family?" the clerk asked with a smile.
"Yeah!" Li Jia nodded.
"These prices are all different. It depends on what your family needs."
“I need both.”
"Both..." The clerk was stunned for a moment, looked at Li Jiayi and said, "Do you want to buy a set?"
Li Jiayi thought about what he said and felt that there was something wrong with it. He nodded and said, "Yes." After that, Li Jiayi walked to a mahogany bed and asked, "Uncle, how much does a set like this cost?"
The clerk took a look and said, "This is made of mahogany. It's not cheap."
“How much is not cheap?”
"How many legs does your family want?"
The furniture of this era was measured by legs. A set of furniture had thirty-six legs, forty-eight legs, sixty legs, or seventy-two legs.
But no matter how many legs you have, they will give you a set, it’s just a matter of quantity.
"How much for seventy-two legs?"
"Seventy-two legs! That's not cheap." The clerk looked at Li Jiayi in surprise.
Because he has been working here for several years and has never met anyone who wants seventy-two legs all at once.
Many people come here to buy whatever they need at home. Not many people buy thirty-six legs at a time.
"I know."
"Okay! That depends on what your family wants."
It’s the same thirty-six legs, but because the things they want are different, the price is also different.
A bed has four legs and a chair also has four legs, how can they have the same price?
"Three large wardrobes, three large beds, one octagonal table, six chairs, and the rest you choose."
"The price of a large wardrobe is between eighty and one hundred and twenty, and the same goes for a large bed."
"A table for eight people costs between forty and sixty yuan. Chairs are cheaper, costing between ten and twenty yuan."
The clerk repeated the price to Li Jiayi.
Although the materials are the same, the prices are different, depending on whether they are new or old.
Yes, at that time, furniture was not considered antiques. People mainly looked at the material and whether it was new or old.
Li Jiayi quickly asked about all the furniture and found out the approximate prices.
The clerk was very patient, perhaps because he saw that Li Jiayi was a child and was particularly cute.
You can buy some furniture, but you don't need to buy too much unless it is particularly precious.
Of course, he did not leave empty-handed. In the end, he spent eighty yuan to buy a jade pendant with very good water content.
As for whether it was fake, Li Jiayi had never thought about it at all.
The appraisers in the trust shops are no pushovers. They work in the trust shops to collect valuable antiques for the country.
I don’t know how much better my research on antiques is than that of the appraisers in antique shops.
So when antiques are placed in trust stores, you don’t have to worry about buying fakes.
Don’t even think about buying antiques from trust stores that are too valuable, and don’t even think about buying fake ones.
Seeing that it was getting late, Li Jia put the jade pendant into the space, and then rushed to Pigeon City.
Soon they arrived at a forest not far from Pigeon City and went straight in.
First let Asheng and the other two out, then put in a few smaller baskets, and place the baskets conveniently on the backs of Asheng and the other two.
Li Jiayi took out a handkerchief and covered his face, then carried a large basket and walked out of the woods with Asheng and the other two in a swagger.
The man and three dogs quickly arrived at the entrance of Pigeon City. When they saw him, many people stayed away from him.
People are not afraid of him, but of Ah Sheng and the other three. I don't know if this counts as a person using the power of a dog to intimidate others.
He quickly found a place where Asheng and the others stopped and took off the baskets on their backs.
"sit."
Asheng and the other three squatted on the ground obediently, of course, behind Li Jiayi.
"Don't miss it if you pass by! Fresh pork, only one dollar a pound."
When they heard it was pork, many people gathered around.
"Comrade, give me two pounds."
"I want five pounds."
"Everyone come one by one."
"Here are your two catties, two dollars."
"Here are your five pounds, five dollars."
"I want a pound."
"Okay, your one pound."
Li Jiayi had prepared the pork in the space, all of which were in pieces of 5 jin, 2 jin and 1 jin.
Two catties is the most, followed by five catties, and one catty is the least.
This is what he discovered after selling pork. It can be said that few people buy one kilogram, and most people buy two kilograms.
"I want two pounds."
"Okay! Take the two pounds."
Li Jiayi looked at the crowd and suddenly said, "Grandpas and grandmas, uncles and aunts, you can also exchange your tickets. One pound of sugar tickets can be exchanged for one pound, and four pounds of national grain tickets can be exchanged for one pound."
"I have two kilograms of sugar tickets. I want to exchange them for two kilograms."
"can."
After taking it and taking a look, he saw that it was indeed two kilograms of sugar tickets. Li Jiayi quickly handed over two kilograms of pork.
