Li Ang walked out of the courtyard along the alley and looked around as he walked.
He had to admit that traces of history could be seen everywhere in the 1960s.
Because it was the time for work and school, there was almost no one in the alley, and it seemed a little deserted.
Along the way, almost all the doors on both sides of the alley were open, as if they were not closed at night.
Li Ang admired the unique environment of this era, but he did not know that his behavior of looking around had been noticed by the nearby residents.
Fortunately, he was wearing a military uniform and a coat over it. Otherwise, it would not be long before the public security officers appeared to stop him.
Li Ang had changed jobs, but because of his identity as a war hero, he was given a few proper military uniforms when he was discharged. It could be considered a memento.
After Li Ang walked out of the alley and turned onto the main road, he arrived at a shop after a few steps.
To be precise, it was called a grocery store. Although the door was not big, there were many things inside.
Basically, all seven matters of daily necessities could be settled here.
Of course, the prerequisite was that you had to have a ticket!
There would be one such non-staple food store in every district. No matter what happened in the past, it was now state-owned.
Li Ang had only seen such a place when he was watching period dramas. Oh right, there was another time when he saw a UP Master post a live Vlog about the last grocery store in City 49.
Thinking of this, Li Ang walked into the grocery store with interest.
This shop faced north and had two doors. The business area was about 200 square meters.
Its business layout was in the shape of a circle. According to the major categories of commodities, there were beef and mutton, vegetables, cooked food and soy products, tobacco, alcohol, cakes, tea leaves, non-staple food spices, meat, aquatic products, etc. There was also a daily necessities department that sold daily necessities such as needles, thread, envelopes, stamps, toilet paper, soap, etc.
In this era of planned economy, the non-staple food stores alone had five of the seven things that people called " daily necessities, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and tea ". Only rice and oil were not available.
There was also no firewood for the first item. However, Li Ang could see a pile of honeycomb briquettes and briquettes of another shape piled in the corner. They could be considered substitutes for firewood.
Although 200 square meters did not sound small, Li Ang felt that it was not.
It was no wonder. There was a circle of old-fashioned counters and old-fashioned wooden shelves against the wall.
In front of the shelf, there was a row of large vats that looked very modern.
Don't misunderstand, this wasn't the water tank that Sima Guang smashed. There were vinegar, soy sauce, soy sauce, and other condiments in it.
Adding in the walkways where the staff walked and the goods piled up, the interior space was indeed not big.
It was probably because it was time for work and school, so the grocery store seemed a little deserted.
When Li Ang walked into the grocery store, the two female salespeople who were chatting at the counter heard the commotion and looked over. They did not pay much attention to it and did not intend to greet him.
This could be considered a characteristic of the times. In this day and age, the salespeople of grocery stores and department stores had quite a temper.
It wasn't that he was bad, but in this era, if he was too easy to talk to, hehe…then he would be in big trouble!
Moreover, salespeople were very common in the future, but in this era, they had many conveniences.
For example, when it came to vinegar and soy sauce, it depended on the salesperson's mood.
If he could build a good relationship with the salesperson, he could not only get the news as soon as possible if there were any high-demand goods in the grocery store or department store, but he could even order the best quality ones. This kind of convenience was not an ordinary benefit.
Therefore, people who came to the grocery store to buy things had to look at the salesperson's face. Even regular customers like neighbors were like this. No one would care about Li Ang, who looked unfamiliar.
However, when the two salespeople retracted their gazes, they were stunned at the same time. Then, they looked at Li Ang at the same time.
It couldn't be helped. As the old saying goes, everyone has the heart to love beauty!
Li Ang was handsome to begin with. In addition to the scholarly air that did not belong to this era, he still had another kind of military temperament that he had developed after being a soldier for many years. The effect of the three was not as simple as 1 1 1=3!
"Comrade, you look unfamiliar." The female salesperson with a slightly round face took the initiative and greeted him with a smile.
"I just moved here today. This is my first time here.”Li Ang smiled gently.
It would have been fine if he hadn't smiled, but his smile stunned the two saleswomen.
Li Ang was not surprised by their gazes. It was fine when he was in elementary school, but when his facial features grew in middle school and he grew taller, he began to worry about his appearance.
In his third year of junior high and third year of high school, he had been confessed to by his classmates, peers, and other young female classmates.
If Li Ang hadn't wanted to get a 985 or 211 exam to repay his parents for their hard work, killing 10 people would have been a piece of cake!
"Please help me get a big front door, thank you.”Li Ang walked to the counter and pointed at the cigarettes in the cabinet.
"Comrade, do you want one? Not just one pack?" The round-faced saleswoman was a little surprised.
It was no wonder that she had such a big reaction. After all, this was the main entrance!
There was a saying that went well: Save China, save the city, save the city.
It meant that the provincial leaders would pick Zhonghua, the city leaders would pick Peony, and the ordinary officials would pick Da Qianmen.
Moreover, this big front door was not cheap. It was cheaper in Beijing, only 0.35 yuan a pack. Some places sold it for 0.39 yuan a pack.
One pack was 0.35 yuan, so ten packs would be 3.5 yuan!
One had to know that the chickens in the Dongzhimen vegetable market were only one yuan each!
This meant that one carton of cigarettes cost three and a half chickens.
"Yes, one." Li Ang looked at the remaining cigarettes on the counter. He had never heard of Warrior, Production, or Pegasus. He was more familiar with the Big Front Gate.
After saying that, he took out a large unity from his coat, or in fact, from his game backpack.
Great Unity referred to the largest banknote at the moment, which was 10 yuan.
"Alright, please take your cigarette ticket again.”The round-faced salesperson nodded.
" Emmm…" Li Ang was stunned for a moment. He realized that he had forgotten that most of the goods in this era were supplied with coupons.
