Almost Tears! Kneel, evaluate, collect
Seeing his serious expression, the old man thought about it and said,"We do have wheat seeds at home, but we definitely don't have fruit trees. We rarely grow fruit trees here.”
"There are also vegetable seeds, but there are not many varieties. They are all cabbages and radishes.”
To be honest, this old man was considered simple and honest. He did not have any ulterior motives.
"I see. Is your house far away? Can you sell some to me?”Xu Lingjun struck while the iron was hot.
"It's not far. It's in the nearby Li family village.”The old man didn't think too much about it.
"How about this? I'll give you a deposit of one yuan first. We'll meet at the main intersection of the county town at noon. I'll go to your village with you.”
Seeing Xu Lingjun being so generous, the old man was also very happy."Alright, I still have to sell the seedlings in my hands for a while. We can meet at noon.”
To be honest, the old man did not think of taking the money directly. He did plan to bring him back to get the seeds.
It had to be said that people in this era were still relatively simple and honest.
Then, Xu Lingjun left the stall and planned to stroll around again.
"As long as we raise these chickens and ducks, we won't have to worry about eggs and duck eggs in the future.”He thought happily in his heart.
These days, eggs were good stuff. Even if they were used to entertain guests, they were still very decent.
Xu Lingjun soon saw another mutton seller enter.
It would be more difficult to buy meat in other places, but this was the grassland. Would there be a lack of mutton?
Moreover, they were all high-quality fat sheep. Compared to the mutton of the later generations, they were definitely much more delicious.
Xu Lingjun bought two catties of lamb chops from the stall owner.
The main reason was that their mutton was free and only exchanged for food.
If it wasn't for the fact that lamb chops were hard to sell, she probably wouldn't have sold it to him.
After buying the meat, Xu Lingjun also bought some cabbage and carrots. He planned to go back and have a pot of mutton to improve his diet.
When he came out of the ghost market, he was no longer empty-handed. He had spent more than ten yuan.
If Old Guo and the others knew about this, they would definitely scold him for being a prodigal. Did he spend so much money?
This was under the premise that he did not buy any books.
After leaving the ghost market, Xu Lingjun found a place with no one around and placed the things he bought into the peach garden space.
The chicks and ducklings were in high spirits after entering the space. It seemed that the space was very suitable for them to live in.
"However, does this space have an acceleration function?”Xu Lingjun couldn't help but think.
He did not expect the system to give him a notification.
"The upgrade direction of the Peach Garden Space: System check-in (You can also get a plug-in when you check-in, which will increase the functions of the Peach Garden Space.）”
"At the same time, you can use this world's jade to ripen crops and livestock.”
Xu Lingjun's eyes lit up when he saw the system notification. The system didn't look so useless after all.
Then, he placed his consciousness into the peach garden space while strolling around the city.
The dozen or so chicks and ducklings in the space were very happy and adapted to life inside.
Xu Lingjun scattered the corncob noodles he had bought on the ground and let them peck at them. After all, these coarse grains were relatively cheap.
In the future, he would not eat this kind of coarse grain. It was just right to feed these chickens and ducks.
In the future, when the space started to grow food, there would be no shortage of food. Other than chickens and ducks, they could also feed some large livestock, pigs, cattle, sheep, and so on.
This was also the reason why he had previously agreed with Old Man Li to go to their village to buy good seeds.
When they became familiar with each other, they could buy some pigs and lambs from their team.
After that, Xu Lingjun went to a bookstore in the county.
This was a state-owned bookstore. There were more employees than customers, which was a feature of this era.
After all, a job in a state-owned bookstore was a secure rice bowl in this era. It was similar to a supply and marketing cooperative worker.
Because there were no customers, the aunts inside were either chatting or knitting sweaters.
When they saw Xu Lingjun enter, they didn't even bat an eyelid.
This was also a characteristic of this era.
It was said that in this era, there were still many cases of shop assistants beating up customers. There was even a state-owned restaurant that placed a sign at the door: You're not allowed to beat customers without reason.
Xu Lingjun saw that no one was paying attention to him, so he didn't mind and continued to look at the transparent glass counter.
In fact, he hadn't thought of what books to buy. After all, it was just an excuse for Guo Pian Zi and the others to come to the county town to buy books.
Moreover, there weren't many books in this era. Most of them were about production and occupation.
After thinking about it, Xu Lingjun decided to buy a 1957 edition dictionary and a book on animal husbandry.
He could only buy some novels to pass the time.
After choosing and buying, he wanted the cashier to take it out and pay the bill.
His aunt, who was chatting, naturally did not have time to pay attention to him. A young girl came over to pay for his books.
Perhaps this girl had just joined the company, so she was quite active in her work.
Of course, another reason was that the young lady was attracted by Xu Lingjun's handsome face and mature temperament. She had noticed it the moment she entered the shop.
This time, Xu Lingjun had specially tidied himself up. He had even shaved his beard clean and put on the clothes he had hidden at the bottom of his chest.
His intention was to change his image.
He was prepared to use these details to change the impression of those around him.
This way, the change in his habits that he unintentionally revealed would not seem so abrupt.
The salesgirl calculated the price of the books and said,""That's 15.30 yuan."
To be honest, there were very few people who were willing to spend more than ten yuan on books in this era.
This was also because Xu Lingjun had a scholarly air about him. Otherwise, it would be easy for others to think that he was a bad person.
Xu Lingjun counted 15.30 yuan and handed it over.
After the little girl accepted it, she gave him a receipt and helped him pack the books, which was to tie them up with hemp rope.
After Xu Lingjun left with the book, the little girl looked at it reluctantly.
"Little Ye, have you taken a fancy to this young man?”An aunt walked to Ye Xiaoxiao's side and asked.
The little girl was startled, and her face turned slightly red.
"Haha, little girl, you're even shy. However, I don't think the young man is young anymore. He's about 25 or 26 years old. I'm afraid he's already married.”The auntie felt sorry for the little girl.
Hearing Aunt Wang's words, Ye Xiaoxiao also felt pity.
It was normal to get married early in this era. People of Xu Lingjun's age probably had a few children already.
Naturally, she didn't know that Xu Lingjun was still all alone.
After leaving the bookstore, Xu Lingjun went to a state-owned restaurant in the county for a meal.
He spent a ticket and a dollar.
To be honest, the cost was not low.
If other people entered the city, how could they bear to eat in a restaurant? Not to mention spending one yuan on a meal.
After leaving the restaurant, Xu Lingjun went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some daily necessities.
When he arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative, the goods inside were much more abundant than the black market, but most of them needed tickets, such as milk powder, malted milk extract, and so on.
At the same counter, there were a few aunts chatting and knitting sweaters. They did not even look at the customers who came in, let alone greet them.
Seeing this, Xu Lingjun also expressed his helplessness. After all, this was a characteristic of the era.
Xu Lingjun looked at the items on the counter. There were indeed many things, such as towels, toothbrushes, soap, washbasins, and aluminum pots.
It wasn't that he couldn't afford it, but many things needed tickets?
Moreover, it was difficult to explain these things when they were bought back. The people at the ranch would definitely be suspicious when they saw them.
Where did you get so much money and tickets to buy these?
It was too troublesome to use them secretly in the space. After all, they were all daily necessities.
Therefore, he could only suppress his thoughts and buy a towel, a toothbrush, and a tube of toothpaste.
She really couldn't stand not washing her face or brushing her teeth.
The main thing was that these could still be explained.
Then, Xu Lingjun saw something that almost made him cry. He missed it so much.
Looking at this thing, even his anus felt much more comfortable.
