Chapter 582 Negotiate the price
Han Mingxiu agreed immediately. Because she was in a hurry, she didn't bother with them.
After that, she was put on a pair of sunglasses. In order to be on the safe side, Liu Zaiwu also had black ink painted in the lenses of the sunglasses, which they could think of.
It was already dark, and when he put on such glasses, Han Mingxiu could not see anything.
Alas! What's the solution? If you ask others, you have to follow their rules.
Then, Liu Zaiwu called out his mother and asked him to take Han Mingxiu's hand. He pretended to be blind and went out to see her off.
Just like last time, they walked out of the house and walked through the alley several miles. They didn't know how long they had walked or where they had walked. Anyway, Han Mingxiu was dizzy and entered the tunnel. After walking in the tunnel for more than two hours, they finally got up the steps and finally arrived!
After arriving, Liu Zaiwu's mother helped Han Mingxiu take off her sunglasses. Han Mingxiu returned to the room she came to Su Guo seven years ago.
The decorations of this room are similar to those seven years ago, but the accordion hanging on the wall is gone.
"You stay here first, I'll go out." Liu Zaiwu's mother ordered Han Mingxiu and asked Liu Zaiwu to accompany Han Mingxiu in the room. She went out alone.
Soon, Liu Zaiwu's foreign father followed Liu Zaiwu's mother back to the house.
After seven years of seeing each other, Liu Zaiwu's father looked older. Not only did he hunch his back, but his head also fell bald, and his smart and sharp eyes became turbid.
The only thing that has not changed is his greedy and mean personality.
As soon as he saw Han Mingxiu, the old man said the first sentence: "I heard you gave them 3,000 yuan in travel expenses. I would like to remind you that if you want to leave me when you go back, you have to pay the same price, otherwise I will not send you back."
Han Mingxiu had expected this to be the case, so she agreed: "Okay, I will definitely pay you when I come back, but can you exchange some Su coins with me now?"
Han Mingxiu took out 500 yuan of Chinese coins and wanted to exchange Chinese coins with the old man for some Su coins. She would take a bus to St. Petersburg later, but it would not work without a fare.
The old man agreed immediately without hesitation. However, the exchange rate he exchanged for Han Mingxiu was surprisingly low. Under normal circumstances, the exchange rate of 500 yuan of Chinese coins to 50,000 yuan of Su coins was a one-to-ten rate.
However, after receiving Han Mingxiu's 500 Chinese coins, the old man only gave Han Mingxiu 4,500 yuan of Su coins. He also told Han Mingxiu without changing his face: The 500 yuan less Su coins was the handling fee he deserved.
Han Mingxiu was so angry that she almost vomited blood by this shameless old miser. Fortunately, she didn't have to deal with this old guy, otherwise she would have to be angry to death by him.
After getting the 4,500 yuan Su coins, Han Mingxiu left the old miser's house without looking back and walked straight to the station with the money.
At this time, it was already past seven o'clock in the morning, and it was the morning hours of work, and people came and went on the street, which was very lively.
Han Mingxiu felt very comfortable when she appeared on the streets of a foreign country again and experienced the charm of a foreign country.
She walked and looked at the Gothic buildings on the street. The blond and blue-eyed Su Guo people. Tsk, the young people in Su Guo are so beautiful. They are tall and straight, with three-dimensional facial features and fair and tight skin. Especially the young girls, they are all beautiful, and they can surprise others if they are just pulling out.
Unfortunately, middle-aged and elderly women and men are not very good at appearance. Most of them are because of their distorted figures and deteriorated appearances. It is probably because of their racial genes. Anyway, they look so old that they can’t help but get older. The appearance of young people and middle-aged and elderly people is far apart. This is not as good as that of yellow people.
Although the yellow race is not as three-dimensional and tall and fair as the white race, it is forbidden to grow old. Women are still beautiful even when they are in their thirties and forties. They are not like them. They start to gain weight when they are in their thirties and forties, and their skin is loose...
The Soviet Union is not only more economically developed than China, but also has a more open custom than China National Medicine. You can see dresses everywhere in the streets and alleys. It is not the long braggie, but the tight skirts popular in Europe and the United States. They wrap their hips tightly, which can show the beauty of women's figure!
Maybe he has been used to being in this world and has become accustomed to the conservative and restrained nature of contemporary women. When Han Mingxiu saw the tight skirt with her figure, she felt that it was unfit for her and always felt embarrassed.
Alas, it's over, I've been assimilated by this backward world!
When he arrived at the station, Han Mingxiu bought a ticket to St. Petersburg and boarded the train to St. Petersburg.
St. Petersburg is the second largest city in the Soviet Union, twenty times the urban area of Brakvishensk, with a large population and a large market throughput. Last time, her green corn, watermelon, apples and cabbage were sold here.
Based on the principle of not letting go of her chopsticks, Han Mingxiu decided to sell her stockpiling products in St. Petersburg this time.
On the train, Han Mingxiu went to the bathroom and put on makeup with herself in the bathroom. She wiped her face and exposed skin white. She also wore wigs and contact lenses, making her look like a Su Chinese.
Afterwards, she found a dress and a pair of high heels she had worn in the space and put it on.
When she came out of the bathroom, she was already like a different person, completely different from the girl she had just entered...
After rushing to St. Petersburg, Han Mingxiu took out some bread and milk from the space, ate some in the station lounge, and cushioned her stomach. After a while, he took a taxi and found the big shopping mall that sold last time.
The mall looks like it has just been renovated. It looks very grand from the outside, and there are a lot more customers coming in and out than before.
Han Mingxiu went all the way to the fourth floor and found the manager's office.
At this time, the secretary outside the manager's office had already been replaced. It was not the secretary with tan hair, but a woman with blond hair and blue eyes and charming eyes.
When he saw a beautiful woman coming to see the manager, the sexy female secretary was very alert and even told Han Mingxiu that the manager was very busy. If Han Mingxiu had something to do, just tell her."
When Han Mingxiu saw the secretary so nervous, she knew what her relationship with the manager was.
However, no matter what relationship she has with the manager, it doesn’t matter to her. She just comes to sell goods and is too lazy to care about other people’s little business.
So, Han Mingxiu told her about her purpose and took out an orange and durian from the bag she carried with her for her to see.
The Su Kingdom is in northern China with a cold climate and is not suitable for the growth of fruits. Most of the fruits sold on the Su Kingdom market are imported from Egypt and other countries. Naturally, there are no fruits grown in the south, such as durian and orange.
After Han Mingxiu took out the orange and durian, she deliberately broke a piece of durian and asked the sexy secretary to taste it, and also gave her a tender orange.
The secretary disliked Han Mingxiu when she handed the durian over, but Han Mingxiu repeatedly explained to her that it was a delicious and nutritious fruit, and was called the Queen of Fruits. She finally stretched out her slender jade fingers and picked up the durian and tasted it.
Like Jia Zhiguo, when she started to ask her to eat, she was squeamish, but after the first bite, she immediately fell in love with the soft, sweet and soft taste.
The female secretary started to eat bite after bite, and after eating durian, she made the orange given by Han Mingxiu.
After eating durian and oranges, she had completely let go of her hostility towards Han Mingxiu and stood up happily to help Han Mingxiu inform her.
Han Mingxiu is very confident in her goods. As long as she has eaten her durian and orange, she will not like to eat it. She will not want to buy it. Now it depends on what price they can give her...
Soon, the mall manager came out.
It was still the bald and smart manager. I haven't seen each other for seven years. The manager's head is even more bald and his dark circles are heavy. I guess it's because he has to worry about the mall all day long and the sexy secretary!
However, the manager had a good memory and immediately recognized Han Mingxiu after seeing her.
He greeted Han Mingxiu enthusiastically, "Hello, I'm glad to see you again. My secretary said that you brought us two delicious fruits. Can I taste it?"
Han Mingxiu hurriedly took out an orange and a piece of durian from his bag and handed it to him.
"This is an orange, this is durian. I don't know if you have eaten oranges, but I dare to swear, you have never eaten durian. This fruit is extremely rare and extremely expensive. It is a noble fruit that ordinary families cannot afford."
In order to avoid the manager making a fuss when she mentioned the price, Han Mingxiu gave him a vaccination in advance so as not to get poisoned by him in a while.
After the manager first smelled the durian, he instinctively wanted to refuse, but hearing Han Mingxiu's introduction, he immediately aroused his curiosity.
It is rare and expensive, and is called a noble fruit. Of course he has to try such a rare thing.
So he stretched out his chubby hand, picked up a piece of durian and started eating.
When he ate durian, he was not as gentle as the female secretary. He ate in small bites, but the first bite was small bites. From the second bite, he started making big mouthfuls, almost swallowing them.
After eating one piece, I picked up another piece and made it with an unsatisfactory one!
Seeing the speed and quantity of food he was eating, Han Mingxiu finally understood where his body came from...
After neatly eating two pieces of durian, he picked up the orange again, broke it apart and ate it.
The female secretary was very sensible. When she saw the manager finishing her meal, she immediately handed over her clean white handkerchief. The manager wiped his hands and mouth, and then began to negotiate the price with Han Mingxiu.
Han Mingxiu set the price of durian relatively high, costing 80 rupees (also known as Suco coins, rubles) per pound. Relatively speaking, the price of oranges is relatively low, only 20 rupees per pound.
After hearing this price, the manager immediately slapped Han Mingxiu. He only gave him fifty rupees per pound of durian, and even lower oranges, only ten rupees per pound.
Although the price is already very good, Han Mingxiu disagreed. By observing the manager's expression of eating durian and orange, she could already see that the manager was very satisfied with her fruits. And it was not her who boasted that anyone who had eaten her durian and orange would look down on her two kinds of fruits.
"Manager, I'm sorry I can't accept the price you gave. You have also seen it. I've peeled all the oranges I sold so I can eat them directly. It's much cheaper than buying oranges with skins. Moreover, my durian is unique. For the sake of our old customers, I've already given the price to you to the lowest level. If you're not satisfied, it's a pity that I can only look for other buyers!"
Han Mingxiu picked up her bag and prepared to leave!
"Ten, nine, eight, seven..." Han Mingxiu counted silently in her heart, counting and walking out. She had already thought about it. If the manager didn't call her when counting one, she would turn it back and talk to him again.
Fortunately, the manager did not disappoint her. When she counted to three silently, a voice that surprised her suddenly came from behind, "Comrade, wait a moment..."
......
Fifteen minutes later, Han Mingxiu walked out of the mall with a gloomy spirit.
Haha, the agreement was made, durian was 80 rupees per pound and oranges were 20 rupees per pound. The smart manager wanted to pay the payment with the mall's goods, but Han Mingxiu did not agree. This time, she asked for cash, and not for rupees, US dollars.
She gave them a day to reverse the US dollar, and she could just use this day to rent a house, otherwise she would not be able to carry these old durians and oranges with her hands!
St. Petersburg is a bustling city with a large population of migrant workers and a lot of rented houses. Han Mingxiu had almost no effort and rented a dilapidated house with a unique courtyard on the outskirts of the city.
Of course, the old rule is still monthly rent, 300 rupees per month!
It was already evening after renting the house.
Han Mingxiu had been busy for two days and finally could sit down and rest. She took out some ready-made meals from the space and sat at the table to eat.
Everything went smoothly today. If nothing unexpected happened, she would have already embarked on the road back to her hometown at this time tomorrow.
But it's rare to go out. In fact, she really wants to stay for a few more days, stroll around St. Petersburg City, and then buy things, and hipi...
But no, there are still a few hungry children and men waiting for her at home. If she doesn't go back for a long time, their men will be worried about her.
After dinner, it was already past seven o'clock in the evening. Han Mingxiu wanted to go out for a walk, but considering that he was a single woman and was far away from a foreign country, he had to go somewhere else, otherwise it would be too late to regret anything if something happened.
She has been busy and busy these days, and she is exhausted. After washing up after dinner, she took out a set of bedding from the space and lay down to prepare for rest.
