Not lengthy after that, as quickly as the availability truck arrived, the women shortly acquired into the again.

Wow, they moved so shortly and simply climbed into the truck.

Qin Xue, who had by no means taken this type of journey earlier than, didn’t know easy methods to get into the automobile.

Fang Hong noticed that Qin Xue was nonetheless down there and realized that she was unfamiliar with this, so she stated:

“Qin Xue, come on, we’ll pull you up.” Then Fang Hong and Yu Xiu every grabbed a hand and dragged Qin Xue up.

Thus, Qin Xue skilled an open-top automobile journey from the 80s.

Qin Xue had by no means had such a using expertise in her life. Prior to now, she both took buses or taxis, or at worst, electrical scooters, however by no means a journey like this earlier than.

In reality, such mode of transportation may be very unsafe within the fashionable days, however now she might solely observe the native customs.

She thought that if she had an opportunity, she would positively purchase a bicycle. Though the worth of a bicycle was not low-cost, it could be handy to go anyplace, proper?

After a protracted and bumpy hour-long journey, they lastly arrived on the county city.

The three of them acquired off the truck and requested in regards to the return journey time earlier than they began procuring.

The breakfast value for the three of them was solely 45 cents, not that costly.

After breakfast, Qin Xue needed to cope with the garments in her house, however she couldn’t take them out when she was with the others.

So she requested: “Girls, what do it’s essential purchase? How about we cut up up and purchase what we’d like, then meet again the place we acquired off the truck to attend for our journey again? I’m simply afraid that there received’t be sufficient time if we store collectively. How does that sound?”

The opposite two agreed, feeling that their procuring lists actually differed fairly a bit, and procuring collectively could be too time-consuming. So, they agreed with Qin Xue’s association.

“Everyone, come and have a look, low-cost stuff on the market, low-cost stuff on the market! There are only some garments, so first come, first served!” Qin Xue wasn’t afraid of not having the ability to promote them.

She didn’t like these garments as a result of they had been too flashy, however they had been really widespread kinds of the time.

Qin Xue spent greater than twenty yuan on all these things. After buying them, she discovered a secluded place to place the gadgets into her house after which leisurely started to wander round.

The financial system at the moment had not but developed nevertheless it was the simplest time to generate income.

Merely organising a stall would make somebody wealthy, however with the event of the nation and the speedy tempo of financial growth, enterprise turned more and more tough, and cash turned more durable to earn. So she had to think about a technique to generate income now.

However what ought to she do? As Qin Xue wandered and contemplated, she handed by a spot promoting watches and realized that there wasn’t even a clock to inform time at residence.

It made folks unconsciously observe the temper she radiated, and Qin Lang’s depressed temper improved due to her smile. It appeared that he had been overthinking, and there was nothing that couldn’t be solved. The previous man instructed him he had an organized fiancée and may return to get married – why not simply return and see for himself?

Qin Lang felt rather more relaxed after pondering it via. He walked to the Jeep parked on the door and acquired in.

“Captain Qin, are we going again to the analysis institute or…” Xiao Zhao glanced at Qin Lang.

“Again to the analysis institute. I have to report back to the part chief about my switch order and ask for a couple of days’ go away to return residence,” Qin Lang had volunteered to switch to S Province as a small crew chief to keep away from coping with a large number again at residence.
