With a Door In Mind

The two rode their bikes and came to the department store humming a ditty.

When he came to the place, the little guy looked around like a wild horse.

Completely forget what you are here for!

Zhou Xiaochuan touched his forehead.

Next time I believe you and come to the department store for inspiration, then I'm really smitten.

Go into a department store.

Although now is not the time to rest on weekends, it is only half a month before the Chinese New Year.

So there are still a lot of people in there.

Especially the first floor.

It sells daily necessities that are closely related to ordinary people.

The most lively ones are naturally the counters selling cloth, sweets and pastries, and non-staple food counters selling melon seeds and peanuts.

But there are a lot of people in other places.

The whole department store is bustling.

In the past few years, it was not like the last three years when the supplies were extremely tight, so some things were no longer available.

For example, soy sauce, vinegar, soap, matches are a mess.

The little guy moves to look west.

After a while, no one was there.

Zhou Xiaochuan didn't follow after seeing this, he could notice it anyway.

Strolling to the wine counter, he took a casual look.

Now there are more varieties of wine than before, and there are even some white wines from other provinces.

Look at the Maotai liquor in the counter.

He suddenly thought that it seemed that after the reform, the production of Maotai did not increase much because more and more liquor was drunk.

For a long time, except for the urban area of ​​Kyoto, it was in the largest supply.

Even your own province has a small share.

"Hey, where's Lao Liu? Where did you go? You're so busy that you can't see anyone!"

One of the older wine waiters,

Shouted to a young man next to him.

The young man shook his head when he heard the words, "I don't know, Master Liu said he had a stomachache and didn't know where he went."

Hearing this, the other party frowned, "This guy, really, just go to the hospital to see if you are not in good health! Forget it at ordinary times, isn't it delaying things when you are busy!"

The young man smiled when he heard the words, but did not answer.

Suddenly, there was a burst of shouting from the small door behind.

"Hey, come, come. Old Wu, are you talking bad about me again? My stomach problem is not a day or two."

Seeing the other party come out, Old Wu, who was talking before, changed his face and smiled, "I haven't seen you in the morning, I thought you fell into the toilet?"

"Hey, I'm sick, my stomach is a little bad, I'll go to the hospital to prescribe some medicine the other day. By the way, come to my house for a drink at night! I haven't eaten the meat I bought,"

After Lao Liu finished speaking, he smiled at a person who was going to buy wine at the counter and said, "Foziling, right? Where's the wine ticket? There are still sixty-eight cents."

Hearing the words, the person at the counter handed him the money and the ticket.

Lao Liu took the things and handed him the wine.

Foziling is actually Yingjia Gongjiu, which was later renamed.

Although the two were talking, the work in their hands did not stop.

Old Wu next to him smiled while receiving customers, "Forget it, you should keep it for the New Year!"

"Hey, what are you keeping for the new year! I'm alone, it doesn't matter what you eat during the new year. Besides, there are some left for the new year."

Zhou Xiaochuan watched this scene from the side, watching with interest.

Because be careful not to lose the little guy.

So every now and then a thought would sweep across the building.

Just saw a surprising scene.

Because this old Liu, who came in from the back, was just finishing a box and put it in a box of wine in the corner.

I was surprised because there was a telegraph inside.

The telegraph was not big, about the size of the battery used by the electric fish of later generations.

It is very convenient to carry.

And the wine box in this corner is obviously specially designed.

The bottom wine box, which looks pressed, can actually be pulled out.

And the outer box is real liquor.

The wine box containing the telegram is hidden inside a box.

Whoever has nothing to take the wine from the bottom, must be sold out, and then move the wine below.

This made him deeply suspicious.

Normal people shouldn't hide this thing.

"spy!"

A word suddenly popped into his mind!

Apart from this, he really can't think of anyone who would do this kind of thing secretly.

Glancing at Lao Liu.

The other party seemed to see his gaze.

He greeted him and asked with a smile, "Comrade, what kind of wine do you want?"

Zhou Xiaochuan smiled when he saw this, "Bring me a bottle of Luzhou.!"

After he finished speaking, he handed the money and ticket directly to him.

The other party took it and clicked it, then smiled, "It's just right!"

Putting away the money and tickets, he took a bottle of wine from behind and handed it to him.

Zhou Xiaochuan took the things and left.

I didn't tell anyone, and no one believed it. Don't make a fuss.

After a while, I will throw a small note to the police station.

Looking for the little guy, the other party has already gone to the second floor.

On the second floor, the environment immediately improved a lot.

Few people.

No hustle and bustle on the ground floor.

All the valuables are sold here. Sewing machines, musical instruments, radios, bicycles, TV sets.

Not far away, there are still people pulling the erhu, and there are also people trying the flute.

The three major items of the 1980s, bicycles, watches, and sewing machines, have not yet fully emerged.

Only a few people can afford it now.

Another reason is that tickets are hard to come by.

Those who can afford one now are either families with high wages or families with very decent jobs.

"Hey, what are you doing? Aren't you here to get a feel for it!"

The little guy looked left and right in front of the sewing machine.

Hearing her brother's words behind her, she looked at the thing in front of her and said, "Brother, if there is this thing, my mother won't have to work so hard in the future."

Zhou Xiaochuan glanced at the words.

This is a hand-operated sewing machine, not big, only 40 to 50 centimeters long and about 30 centimeters high.

Not the kind of foot pedal that came later.

Zhou Xiaochuan touched his chin.

In fact, this thing can be bought back.

And it's not a big thing, just hide it when you're done with it.

As for the source of the ticket!

Naturally, it is still Lao Zhao.

Although the old man has changed, his treatment has not changed.

This is also the characteristic of this era.

Many people who stand aside are treated the same.

Up to now, in fact, 80% of the people have "returned to the team".

The rest are more serious.

While thinking, Zhou Xiaochuan patted her head, "Why are you here?"

The little guy pouted when he heard the words.

But he ignored him and ran towards the musical instrument booth again.

Zhou Xiaochuan smiled and followed behind.

In fact, just play with her.

After a long walk in the mall, I still bought some things.

The two just left the mall.

The little guy bought a wind-up green frog.

In recent years, the toy market has gradually started.

Mainly because the people have so little spare money in their hands.

By the time we passed the police station, it was almost noon.

His thoughts swept over, and Lao Zheng was rubbing his loose eyes and walking out of the dormitory at the back.

There are a few others in the company.

These are the people from last night.

Zhou Xiaochuan was still wondering what the few people were doing last night, but he still had no clue.

In his mind, a note wrapped in a small stone flew to Zheng Bing's feet.

Then Zhou Xiaochuan rode the car and left with the little guy.

Zheng Bing yawned and suddenly found a note flying under his feet.

stunned for a moment.

After picking it up strangely, and opening it, his face suddenly changed.

Go outside quickly.

But at this time, it was close to dinner time, and there were still a lot of people coming and going outside.

He looked for a few minutes and found nothing unusual.

Finally walked back.

"Zheng Suo... what's going on?"

One of them looked at Zheng Bing's expression with a strange look on his face.

Zheng Bing said to several people expressionlessly: "You guys come to the conference room! There is a situation!"

"what!"

Everyone was surprised when they heard the words, and they followed with a light oh.

Leave the others still working.
