Chapter 012 The Grocery Store in the Township

"Brother, these are all yours. Eat quickly. We are all hungry and can't wait!" Youjuan held the peeled sweet potatoes in one hand and the wooden scoop in the clay pot with the other hand.

It is easy to understand that they get hungry as early as they get up.

There were two eggs, a sweet potato, and a bowl of porridge on the cloth bag. This was also the breakfast assigned by my mother. The soil roots were given two cooked eggs.

Chen Tianhua was about to reach out to get the cooked eggs when he suddenly found that a trace of blood flowed out of his elder sister Tingjuan's fingers, so he hurried forward to observe.

I found that except for two little fingers, the other eight of her ten fingers were cut by barbs to varying degrees, and were densely packed with scratches.

Several fingers were scratched quite seriously.

My elder sister Tingjuan is impatient. She may just think about increasing the speed and earning more money to pay off her debts, so she ignores the barbs.

Barbing pierces cut the flesh and flesh. Once exposed to water, soil and earthworms for a long time, they are very likely to be infected and inflamed. If you are not careful, serious consequences will occur in the absence of medical treatment and medicine, such as sepsis.

Seeing this, Chen Tianhua shuddered, feeling both sad and guilty. He only emphasized efficiency and ignored letting them protect themselves.

Chen Tianhua asked Tingjuan with gesture: "Does it hurt?"

She seemed to understand, and replied with a smile: "It doesn't hurt, it's okay!"

"Brother! I cut it too, why don't you look at me?" Youjuan pouted and reached her hand in front of Chen Tianhua, a little jealous.

He turned his head and looked at the little sister Youjuan's hand. There were indeed many scratches, but the degree was much lighter.

The little girl is smart and knows how to protect herself, so of course she must be slower.

"You are not as serious as your elder sister, so you will only be lazy. When you arrive in the town, I will buy some red medicine for you to disinfect and apply anti-inflammatory powder to you."

"Haha..." Youjuan made a face dissatisfied.

...

They put fishing rods and other tools back to the utility room and took their small plate scales to the town market.

This time Chen Tianhua has experience. He took out 12 or pounds of Dahu shrimp in batches and sold them slowly.

Two or three or three are not annoying.

The three siblings divided the work. He was responsible for weighing scales and calculating the accounts. Youjuan was responsible for collecting money, while Tingjuan was responsible for taking care of the shrimps. Don’t let those who were greedy for small gains take advantage of the situation...

After about an hour of touching, the shrimps were finally sold out.

Chen Tianhua counted it, oh, it sold six silver balls and more than a dozen copper plates, which was very good.

The three were so happy that they could not express their feelings.

At this time, he looked up at the sky. The red sun was less than the top of his head. It should be around 11:30.

It's almost noon, so hurry up and buy something and go home.

A new large grocery store has been opened in Shuangqi Town, mainly selling daily necessities, and is said to have high-end foreign goods.

Chen Tianhua wanted to come here to try his luck and see if he could buy the detergents he needed.

When he arrived at the grocery counter, he stretched his neck and looked around, but he didn't see that he wanted detergents, and he was quite disappointed.

"Hi, hi... little kid, let go if you don't buy anything, don't block the guests..."

A shop clerk who was about twenty-seven or eight years old in a striped shirt, saw three young men and women in ragged clothes, holding buckets and holding scale rods, looking around in front of their own store. He was very upset and shouted to drive him away.

"Who said we won't buy anything? You don't have what I want here..." Chen Tianhua retorted when he saw that the shop's shop's rude.

"Oh... I'm not a little angry... What are you going to buy? Tell me?" The shop clerk saw Chen Tianhua's three brothers and looked poor and looked dissatisfied.

"I want foreign towels, toothpaste and toothbrushes, fragrant foreign soap and skin care products. Do you have them here?" Chen Tianhua said.

"What do you say?"

The shopman was shocked when he heard Chen Tianhua report these terms.

These are all imported foreign things. Not to mention ordinary people, they have never even seen them before, so how can they come out of their mouths?

I met a little red man who was stealing, and the third and fourth brothers came here to make trouble on purpose!

The guy thought to himself, grinning and snorting: "I have all kinds of foreign goods in this store, but I'm afraid you can't afford it even if you don't have the money to buy it?"

Chen Tianhua was eating his set. He picked up the blue cloth bag containing silver-round copper plates and whispered to the counter, "Crash..." sounded.

"Man, you open the door to do business to make money, and your vision is so snobbish?" Chen Tianhua's momentum and tone of speaking were extremely inconsistent with his age and clothes, just like a rich family's little kid.

After such a quarrel, there were many people watching from the side, including villagers from Xibutou Village. They knew Chen Tianhua and his brother.

Isn’t this a boy from the Chen Laoqi family? What are you doing here?

Watching the fun and gossiping after dinner is a common phenomenon in society nowadays. It is all about boredom that can cause trouble.

Just when the shopkeeper was blushing and couldn't get out of the table, a middle-aged man of forty-six or seven years old walked out of the shop.

He has a slender figure, gentle appearance, and is wearing a light gray silk gown. He doesn't look like a shop guy.

He was in this store, watching coldly just now, and seeing that the shop assistant could not handle it, he had to come forward.

"The shopkeeper...is disturbing you...sincerely..." The guy stood aside with his head down and respectfully.

Dazhang refused to look at it, and saw the man and the two women, dressed in shabby clothes, wandering around the counter.

The young man in front of him, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, long and strong eyes. Although he was dressed simply and had a dark and tired face, his language was smooth and sharp, and he looked like a person who was a scholar, with a heroic spirit in his bright eyes.

The shopkeeper clasped his fists and bowed, "Mr., I'm apologizing to you, see what you need?"

"Mr...."

Chen Tianhua has been respected as a gentleman for the first time since traveling through time. He feels very kind and respectful. As for the word "small" used for decoration, he doesn't care much about it.

I saw him holding his hands back and blurting out: "Boss, I want to buy some towels, toothpaste and toothbrushes, etc. It's my first time buying it. Please recommend it to me."

Every word that Chen Tianhua said made the shopkeeper very surprised.

First of all, the title of boss is a big name in Beijing opera singing in northern Beijing, and he is respectfully called boss.

There is also this title in Shanghai Foreign Company.

After all, it is the shopkeeper who does business in Southeast Asia, where people are commonly known as the boss.

In Jiangnan towns, this name is unheard of, and people are used to calling it the shopkeeper.

Fortunately, the shopkeeper ran across the dock and was knowledgeable. Otherwise, he would have become unheard of the title of Chen Tianhua.

Also, towels, soap, toothbrush and toothpaste are all foreign things and foreign nouns.

Those who know nouns and use these supplies are not ordinary people. In the entire township, there are probably only the Fan family and Liu family who are using them.

To sum up, the young man in front of him should be the young master of a powerful man, but his outfit was not like him at all.

The shopkeeper didn't figure out any reason, but he couldn't neglect the customers anymore, so he smiled and nodded at Chen Tianhua.
