My Siheyuan Shelter

Chapter 57 Panjiayuan Flea Market

"Panjiayuan? Isn't that a place to sell antiques?" Xu Dong wondered.

In the past few months, he has read several online novels about treasure appraising.

Wang Xiujuan put down her chopsticks and explained, "Yes, there used to be antiques there, but now whoever has the heart to buy that stuff is about to become a real thrift market."

"The second-hand market?" Xu Ma asked suspiciously, "Where can I buy meat?"

"It can't be said to buy, it should be said to be exchanged.

Nowadays, many shortages cannot be bought with money, and can only be exchanged for the same.

Panjiayuan is like a hodgepodge, there is everything in it, but whether you can get it or not depends on means and luck. "

Wang Xiujuan analyzed.

"Pharaoh, how did you know, did you go there to buy meat?" Xu Ma asked.

Wang Xiujuan shook her head:

"No, I'm an old woman, but I don't dare to go there alone, I heard what Lao Zhou from our dance company said.

Her daughter's family lives in Panjiayuan, and her son-in-law exchanged a cigarette for a pound of pork, and even gave half a pound to Lao Zhou and his wife. "

"Husband, why don't we take the time to take a look?"

Yang Lina was very moved when she heard it, whether it was true or not, there was nothing to lose if she went to see it.

Xu Dong nodded, thinking that this matter is very reliable, anyway, Panjiayuan is not far from his home, at most half an hour's drive.

"Okay, let's go together when I get back from get off work tomorrow."

Beside, Wang Xiujuan asked:

"Xiao Xu, if you really come across meat, can you help auntie with it too.

Zheng Yan and the others haven't eaten meat for many days, adults don't care, the key is that the two children are still young, so they can't be without nutrition..."

"Aunt Wang, I understand. You can rest assured. If you can buy meat, I will definitely keep a copy for you." Xu Dong agreed.

"That's great, auntie is here to thank you in advance."

"Pharaoh, why did you say thank you again? Didn't we make an appointment in the afternoon?" Xu Ma pretended to be angry.

Wang Xiujuan patted her forehead quickly, "blame herself" and said, "Oh, look at my memory, I punish myself three times."

"Ton ton ton..."

Of course, the drink is soy milk.

……

In the blink of an eye, it was the second day.

When Xu Dong came home from get off work, he packed a box of cigarettes and seven or eight boxes of expired Telunsu in the car, and then took his wife to Panjiayuan.

If this trip goes well, then the expired goods at home will be sold. Earning money is the second most important thing. The key is that he can't see waste.

When they arrived at Panjiayuan, the first thing the couple did after getting off the bus was to put on masks consciously.

The air quality in Yanjing has always been not very good, especially since this year, the sandstorms have become more and more frequent, which is even worse.

In addition, wearing a mask is also a bit of a precautionary measure. After all, Panjiayuan looks like a mixed place, and there are people of all kinds.

Xu Dong has never been to Panjiayuan, so he doesn't know what it was like before, but now it's really very lively here, and it's crowded with people everywhere.

Shouting, haggling, trumpets...

One after another!

Everything looks messy, but it is chaotic and orderly, very similar to a vegetable market.

"Husband, how do we go?" Yang Lina asked blankly.

The entire Panjiayuan covers an area of ​​about 3000 square meters, with a total of more than [-] shops and stalls. No wonder Yang Lina didn't know where to start.

"Let's go to the store area first, I heard people say that there are often good things in there." Xu Dong suggested.

Going to work today, he specifically inquired about Panjiayuan from his colleagues. He didn't expect that many people had been there, and Section Chief Li was a frequent visitor. The other party also shared a lot of experience with him.

"Okay, listen to you." Yang Lina said simply.

The store area is next to the parking lot, Xu Dong took his wife and walked there in less than 5 minutes.

There are two kinds of shops here, one is a single-family street-side shop; the other is a temporarily rebuilt shopping mall model, where the shops are separated by fences.

The first thing the two visited was the "mall", which sold everything, but mainly household appliances, clothing and consumer electronics.

Most of them are second-hand.

It is worth mentioning that there are actually more than a dozen pawn shops in the "shopping mall", and four or five gold shops specializing in recycling precious gold. The business of each is extremely hot.

However, these were not what Xu Dong and the others needed. The two of them walked around for a while and then left. The next focus was on the shops along the street.

Soon, a shop specializing in selling Western-style pastries caught the attention of the couple.

After all, this is the first time the two have seen a business selling food, especially when they smell the fragrance, their appetites are instantly hooked.

Xu Dong protected his daughter-in-law and squeezed in. The outside of the store was crowded, but the inside of the store was spacious, and everyone consciously did not cross the threshold.

"Hello, may I ask if your puffs are 20 yuan a pound or 20 yuan a pound?"

Even though she knew that it was the former, Yang Lina still asked with a fluke.

The waiter raised his head and glanced at the person who asked the question. Seeing that the other person was dressed in ordinary clothes, he didn't look like a rich person, so he said perfunctorily:
"We only trade here, but don't sell. There is a bakery in front of you. You can go there and take a look. Their shop normally accepts cash."

Yang Lina was stunned all of a sudden, what is this called, and she took the initiative to drive customers away, this was the first time she encountered such a situation.

"Then what do you want to change?" Xu Dong asked with a frown.

The waiter stared at Xu Dong and found that the other party was wearing a famous watch on his wrist, and his attitude suddenly became enthusiastic.

"Hello, this gentleman, we only accept famous cigarettes, famous wine and famous tea here."

"I still have some cigarettes. Do you accept the 'Fuxing' brand?"

Xu Dong asked this question knowingly.

Although life is not a novel, there are not so many routines to slap in the face, but it is still okay to occasionally satisfy bad tastes.

The waiter's eyes lit up and nodded immediately: "Of course."

"How to change?"

"Fuxing cigarettes, on our side, the recycling price is 250 yuan per pack.

This 250 yuan can be directly exchanged for cakes of no more than 250 yuan in our store.

Of course, if you're willing to accept cash, that's even more of a problem, and we have additional bonuses. "

The waiter patiently introduced.

Xu Dong secretly calculated the account: "So, a Fuxing cigarette can be exchanged for 2500 yuan of cakes?"

"You're right."

Hearing that the customer might take out a whole stick of cigarettes, the waiter smiled even brighter, after all, she also got a commission in it.

"Husband, this price is too expensive, I think let's forget it!"

Yang Lina pulled Xu Dong's arm to persuade in a low voice, she is a person who is used to saving, and is usually more stingy than her mother-in-law.

Xu Dong comforted in a low voice: "What are you afraid of, there is no shortage of cigarettes at home, and besides, the two of us finally came here, so we have to bring something back, otherwise it will be a waste of time!"
