The little one's purse connects the two worlds, turning a desolate village into a paradise.
Chapter 530 Glowing Slippers
Ya Ya nodded her head rapidly, like a chick pecking at rice: "Yes, that's perfect! I want them all, big brother! I want them all!"
Grandma Duck also loves gold, so we'll buy them all and have Aunt Chuntao alter one for her too, making sure to keep the inscription.
Ya Ya thought to herself, "Luckily, Grandma Duck has gained a lot of weight recently, otherwise the words on her clothes wouldn't be fully visible."
She patted her shopping cart, looking impatient: "Excuse me, could you please put all these clothes into my cart? Eighty-one outfits, how much does that cost in total?"
"Eighty-one sets, forty-six sets..." Ya Ya frowned and muttered to herself, "One times one equals one, one times eight equals eight, two times eight equals sixteen... three..." When she got to the beginning of the three, the little one got stuck. Brother Zi Han hadn't even taught her the four yet.
Seeing this, Zhao Jiale took out his phone, opened the calculator, and quickly tapped a few keys before turning the screen towards Ya Ya.
"Forty-six times eighty equals three thousand six hundred and eighty pieces."
Ya Ya craned her neck, staring at the little boy's phone screen with a look of wonder: "Huh? Can a phone do math?"
"Of course, it's so convenient to do math on your phone." Zhao Jiale put his phone aside, not in a hurry to pack it up. He still had some good things to promote, or rather, recommend.
"Can my phone count too?" Ya Ya pulled a phone out of her small handbag. As if afraid that her phone wasn't high-end enough, she pulled out a three-fold folding phone, like Grandma Duck's.
This screen is big and bright, making it more convenient to use.
Zhao Jiale was dragging a plastic bag over from the side when he caught a glimpse of the dark purple three-fold folding car in Ya Ya's hand. He froze instantly, his mouth agape, his jaw almost dropping to the ground.
The old man watching the melon on the sidelines also gaped wide-eyed.
Goodness, this is the latest three-fold model! This thing starts at 20,000 and the top-of-the-line model goes straight to 30,000!
Gaba.
Zhao Jiale manually closed his mouth.
"It can calculate, it can calculate. Wait a minute, I've never used such a good phone before. Let me find where the calculator is." Zhao Jiale moved over from behind the stall and tapped the screen lightly with Ya Ya's hand.
He didn't dare touch it, afraid that he would break it if he used too much force.
After scrolling through the desktop icons for a while, I finally found the calculator app for him.
"Look, this icon is the calculator on your phone. Remember this icon; just tap it when you need to do math. Let me show you how to use it. You recognize all the numbers, right?"
"I recognize him!"
"That works. Here, for example, let's calculate the cost of clothes. There are forty-six pieces. First, press four and six, then press this little cross, which is the multiplication sign. Next, press eight and zero, and finally press this two horizontal bars equal sign. The answer will appear immediately without having to rack your brains to calculate it."
Ya Ya stared wide-eyed at the screen, watching as the clearance sale guy pressed down on the two horizontal bars and the number 3680 instantly appeared on the screen. She was so surprised that her mouth dropped open slightly: "Wow! It really changed, it's now three thousand six hundred and eighty! My phone can actually do math! Let me try."
As she spoke, Ya Ya pressed the button again, then put her phone away and took out another phone from her pocket. Following the example the clearance sale guy had taught her, she found the calculator, entered the numbers, and the screen displayed the number 3680.
"Wow! That's amazing! You're incredible!"
Zhao Jiale was dumbfounded and waved his hands repeatedly: "What's so great about me? You're the one who's great! You're carrying around a house in Hegang on your back, you're really bold! Quickly put your phone away, and make sure you keep a close eye on your bag, zip it up. Don't flaunt your wealth, you know? Don't let anyone see these valuables."
Ya Ya obediently put all her phones back into her little bag. "Okay, thank you, big brother. I won't take them out; I'll keep them secret. I'll pay you now with my little watch!"
"Don't rush, don't rush." Zhao Jiale grabbed the plastic bag next to him. "I have something good to show you. I specially collected it, thinking you would like it."
Ya Ya's eyes lit up. "There's something good here?"
"What is it, sir?"
Zhao Jiale pulled two pairs of slippers out of a large plastic bag, picked them up, and shook them. "Ta-da! Crystal sandals! They come in every color and size, and some even have lights on! Aren't they beautiful?"
The old man covered his eyes, unable to bear to look.
It's an eyesore, especially the pair of shoes that young man is holding—deep purple and transparent, with a huge green plastic flower hanging on them. Even his wife, who usually loves wearing red, wouldn't buy something like that.
"Wow! What beautiful shoes, like water, and so many pretty flowers! Little brother, do they have lights? What does that mean?" Ya Ya took one of the transparent slippers with seven or eight colorful plastic flowers on it and held it in her hands, looking it over and over. At the same time, she thought about the combination of slippers and lights in her mind, but she really couldn't figure it out.
"Purple is so pretty! I'm sure Xinghua would love it if she wore it."
"Come on, let me show you!" Zhao Jiale picked out a pair of transparent red slippers that were a bit too big, took off his own shoes, put on a plastic bag, and then stuffed his feet into the slippers.
"Watch closely!"
Zhao Jiale tiptoed and took two steps with great effort.
With each step, the soles of the shoes flashed with colorful light, each step a burst of light, the colors flashing back and forth, as if stepping on a shattered rainbow.
Ya Ya opened her mouth into a round "O" shape and clapped her hands vigorously: "Wow, these shoes are so pretty! They're beautiful even though they're not shiny, and they have so much shine! I want to buy these!"
Seeing Ya Ya's excited expression, Zhao Jiale secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He knew he had made the right choice in accepting the bag of shoes.
"Hey sir, will these shoes stay shiny all the time? Will they stay shiny at night too? Why are they shiny? Do they absorb sunlight?"
A series of questions then fell on Zhao Jiale's head; this kid even knows about solar energy.
He organized his thoughts and answered the questions from the big customer and the child one by one: "It will keep lit up. It will light up as long as you step on it. It is battery-powered and will probably last for one or two months. If you wear it every day, it will probably last for about a month. When it stops lighting up, you can just replace the battery."
As he spoke, he pried open a small box on the sole of the shoe: "This is where the battery is stored to control the light. This round thing is the battery. When it runs out of power, just open the cover and replace the battery to keep it glowing. I replaced the batteries in all of these shoes yesterday; they'll last a long time."
He paused, then solemnly instructed, "However, this battery is afraid of water! It absolutely must not get wet, and you can't wear it while showering. If water gets in, the circuit will be damaged and the light won't turn on. Wear other ordinary crystal slippers without this little box when showering; those are waterproof and the soles are non-slip."
"These shoes shine even brighter at night. Wearing them, you'll be the coolest kid in the village!"
Wow!
Ya Ya's eyes lit up the more she listened; she loved it! Buy it!
If we take these back to the village and everyone wears them, then at night we can walk along a colorful little river of stars!
"Hey bro, I want these too, lots and lots of them! Our village bathrooms don't have slippers, everyone showers barefoot. I want shiny ones too, lots and lots of them!"
"Don't worry, the shoes really do need to be the right size, they can't be too far off. Do you know roughly what size you should wear?"
An elderly man, who had been watching the spectacle, was not only disgusted by the sight of the young man dressed in all black walking the runway in bright red plastic slippers, but also felt a bit morbidly disillusioned.
Is he really getting old and out of touch with the times?
Is this really that good-looking?
Do kids really like these things?
He has a six-year-old granddaughter at home. Why don't we buy a pair for her too?
