"have!"

Li Wen returned to the tricycle and pretended to take it out of his bag, but he actually got it from the warehouse.

"This towel is so festive! There is also the word "happy" on it." The old lady was very happy when she saw the towel Li Wen took out.

"My dear, I am making you laugh. The eldest grandson in the family is planning to marry a wife, but the girl insists on a floral towel." The old man then revealed the reason.

"Ha ha!"

"Isn't it time to catch up? Now you can live in the same house for five generations." Li Wen was also happy when he heard the old man's explanation.

The reason why Li Wen stocked up on these daily necessities in the first place was not to help people in remote areas in the future.

"Young man, what's the price of your towel? It's too expensive. I can't afford it." The old lady touched the soft towel and was reluctant to let go.

"Grandma, this towel only costs you one yuan, and I won't count it as your ticket price. I'll treat it as a gift to your great-grandson." Li Wen said with a smile.

"Really! That's great."

How could the old lady be unhappy at this price? Ordinary towels only cost one yuan at the supply and marketing cooperative. What's more, Li Wen's towels are of later generations quality, and they are double-sided towels.

That's right, Li Wen took out towels from his own warehouse.

The daily chemical products in Li Wen's warehouse are rarely sold, and they are usually used by himself and his family.

But the last time a friend got married, the gift was a towel and an enamel basin. Only then did he realize the value of towels in this era.

"Young man, can you sell me two? I wonder if you can sell me some handkerchiefs as well." The old lady said with an embarrassed look.

"Okay, the first towel costs you one dollar, and the other two towels cost you one dollar and two; each handkerchief costs ten cents, so it doesn't count as a ticket. How many do you want?" Li Wen did not act like a living Buddha, but calculated the price fairly.

Let the elderly take advantage a little bit.

"Let's exchange all the three yuan for towels and handkerchiefs. The rest is up to the old man." The old lady stated her needs.

Li Wen took out eight handkerchiefs and a towel from his bag and handed them to the old lady.

"My dear, how do you calculate the price of food?" the old man asked with a heated look on his face as he looked at the carriage.

"Five cents for sweet potatoes, seven cents for potatoes, eight cents for thick cornmeal, one cent for fine cornmeal, and twenty cents for flour. Take a look and see what you need." Li Wen said with a smile.

"I want forty pounds of sweet potatoes, twenty pounds of fine cornmeal, and ten pounds of white flour, okay?"

The old man was worried that he wanted too much white flour and Li Wen wouldn't give it to him, so he hurriedly explained.

"My great-great-grandson needs to be dignified when getting married, so I asked for some more white flour. After all, there are seven or eight boys behind me, and everyone is watching!" After the old man finished speaking, he looked at Li Wen nervously.

"Old man, we are dealing fairly, of course there is no problem. Grandma, go and bring two basins over, and I will fill them with flour for you." Li Wen smiled and said to the old man on the side.

"Old man, let's weigh the sweet potatoes first. I'll put the basket on the scale first. The basket weighs five kilograms. Please take a look." Li Wen showed the scale star to the old man.

"No problem, this basket has almost the same weight." The old man looked at the scale beam, and he must have an idea of ​​his own things.

Li Wen poured half a sack of sweet potatoes from the carriage, picked the big ones and filled almost a basketful of them for the old man.

Li Wen was so strong that he weighed baskets of sweet potatoes by himself while holding the scale beam. The old man was stunned for a moment. He had been thinking of helping him just now!

"Take a look, old man, the total weight with skin is a little over 47 pounds." Li Wen put down the scale and asked the old man to look at the crosshair.

"No problem!" The old man nodded.

"Okay, there's no need to pick up the extra ones, just treat them as gifts for you." Li Wen waved his hand and gave away the extra two kilograms.

With the two old men's thanks, Li Wen helped the old men move the sweet potatoes inside.

While the two old men were settling down in the inner courtyard, Li Wen quickly walked out and put out two bags of flour.

"Why is this cornmeal just like flour? It's too fine!" The two old men looked at the golden cornmeal with shocked expressions on their faces.

You must know that the coarse cornmeal of this era refers to the cornmeal that has been crushed with the corn cob; while the thin cornmeal is the cornmeal that is completely ground with corn kernels, but the bran is not removed, which may cause throat irritation.

The fine cornmeal and flour provided by Li Wen have 30% of the bran removed, which means that 100 kilograms of cornmeal and wheat yield 70 kilograms of flour, which is of course good quality.

Li Wen scooped the two wooden basins three times and six times respectively, because his iron horse spoon could scoop more than three kilograms at a time.

Finally, they weighed the cornmeal and found that there were twenty-one kilograms of cornmeal and a little over ten kilograms of flour. Li Wen did not scoop out the food, but gave it to the two old people.

After the two old men brought the flour home, Li Wen picked up a sack and packed all the mountain products and tea cakes.

"Drink some water, baby. It's as sweet as honey!" The old man came out with a smile, holding a ceramic bowl.

"Hey! Thank you so much." Li Wen took the bowl from the old man's hand with a grateful expression.

Being treated with honey water or sugar water these days is considered the treatment of a distinguished guest. And the old man's actions also made Li Wen feel that his generosity just now was not in vain.

"Grandma, don't tell anyone about the towel thing just now. Wait until someone asks you after I leave." Li Wen said to the old lady sitting next to her.

"Understood, we definitely won't tell you. Young man, you just gave us a bargain. We can't let you lose money anymore." The old lady is also a discerning person and knows that Li Wen just gave her a bargain. ωωw..net

"Look, baby, the branch secretary is back." The old man pointed to a few adults in the distance and a few children behind him.

"Are you the leader from the city?" Li Wen heard several people greeting him warmly from far away.

"Hey, no, no!" Li Wen waved his hands hurriedly when he heard this.

"Hello comrades, I am a purchasing staff member of a department store in Chang'an City, and this is my work certificate.

I happened to be on a business trip to Jinzhou City these days, so I stopped by the countryside to see what specialties are available and buy some." Li Wen smiled and handed over his identity certificate and work permit.

It's difficult to move forward without this thing in these days. If Li Wen doesn't prove it, he will easily be arrested as a spy.

Several cadres from the Chashan Brigade looked at Li Wen's identity certificate and work permit, compared the photos, confirmed that it was Li Wen, and then respectfully handed the certificate to Li Wen.

"It turns out to be Leader Li from Chang'an Big City. Welcome." The leader, a thin middle-aged man with a smile on his face, stepped forward and held Li Wen's hands tightly.

Farmers in rural areas have strong hands. If Li Wen hadn't been so strong, his hands might have been injured.

After exchanging pleasantries, the middle-aged man and several brigade cadres began to introduce themselves.

"Secretary Liu, I came here this time to purchase a batch of tea tree branches and some mountain products." Li Wen said the purpose of his visit today.

"oh!"

"Comrade Li, what do you need the branches for this season? The branches cannot be planted this season." Secretary Liu asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"I purchased these tea branches for a special purpose, not for planting." Li Wen used the special purpose to fool everyone.

Tea trees can be grown through branches, and branches are nothing more than firewood to the Tea Mountain Brigade. Secretary Liu waved his hand and directly gave away one hundred catties.

"Thank you so much, Secretary Liu. I brought a lot of things today. I hope you can use them." Li Wen pointed at the full carriage and said with a smile.

"Oh! There's something there." Secretary Liu looked excitedly at the packed carriage.
