Return To the Era with Space Supplies

Chapter 3 Preparation

Si Ningning pushed hard twice. The rear seats were removable, but she was not strong enough.

Looking back, the butler said nothing, rolled up his suit sleeves, stepped forward to remove the seat, and dragged the chair out.

Someone had already opened the door to the manor, and Si Ningning got in the car, turned the steering wheel, and drove off.

The manor occupies a large area and is located in the suburbs. It took more than an hour of driving to enter the city.

 The area within the third ring road is a prosperous area with many cars and people. Si Ningning found a place to rent a warehouse on the edge of the third ring road.

  150 square meters, 6,000 yuan a month, one deposit and one payment.

After signing the contract and putting away the keys, Si Ningning silently wrote down the address and navigated to a nearby chain supermarket.

She has little social experience and feels that buying things in the supermarket is more direct and reliable. When she arrives at the supermarket, she goes straight to the rice and grain section.

 I put 20 kilograms of rice in bags and loaded them into the shopping cart. I was already sweating profusely after only moving four bags.

 No, this is too inefficient.

 Hand over to the staff responsible for this area:

“How much of this kind of rice do you have here? I want a lot, can you deliver it to my door?”

The staff member was confused for a moment, and then nodded quickly after realizing:

“If you live within three kilometers and purchase more than fifty bags, we can apply with the manager to provide delivery.”

One bag is 20 kilograms, and 50 bags are equivalent to 1,000 kilograms. This rice is high-quality fragrant rice, and a bag is 350 yuan. 50 bags are equivalent to 17,500 yuan.

Si Ningning made a calculation in his mind and made a decision:

 “Check how much you have in stock here, I want it all.”

 The staff immediately turned around and went to do it. In about ten minutes, they came back with a balding middle-aged man.

“Miss, this is our manager. We just checked the inventory and there are only 82 bags of fragrant rice left. Do you want it? If so, we can provide delivery.”

 82 bags?

　　It’s too little!

 She won’t eat it alone, and it may even replace currency in the future. Si Ningning turned her eyes and looked at the rice in the big wooden box on the other side. On the top of the pile of snow-white rice, there was a wooden label stuck on it, which read 3.79 yuan per pound.

 “What kind of rice is that?”

The manager explained: "It's rice native to our northern black soil. It tastes good, but it doesn't have the strong aroma of imported rice. You should also know that the reason why imported goods are expensive is that Shanghai tariffs are included..."

Si Ningning nodded to express understanding, "I want fragrant rice. Are there bags of this original rice? If so, how many bags are there?"

“I just checked the inventory and saw that the original rice is 30 kilograms per bag, and there are more than 400 bags in the warehouse. I buy it by the bag, and the price is 110 yuan per bag.”

 “How many bags are clear?”

 “421 bags!”

Si Ningning took out her mobile phone. After the supermarket manager finished answering, she had already calculated the price.

 Buying it by the bag is 110 yuan, which is equivalent to erasing 9 cents from the retail price. 421 bags is 46,310 yuan, totaling 12,630 kilograms.

 Looking at it this way, the gap between the price of imported rice and the price of domestic rice is really not small.

Si Ningning didn’t know what kind of rice she usually ate at home, so she bought it just to give it a try.

Anyway, luckily it ends up in the stomach.

In order to let the other party know that she really wanted to buy it instead of fooling others, Si Ningning asked the supermarket staff to bring the credit card machine and paid for the rice on the spot.

This card is her daily expense card. Her expenses are not big, and she basically has a surplus of 800,000 yuan every month. The little money adds up, and now she has about 2 million yuan in the card.
