Chapter 16: Sew a new dress for my mother [Please read it, I don’t dare to hope for a ticket]

This time I bought a 15-foot cloth ticket.

1 foot is 6 cents and it cost 9.75 yuan.

It’s not enough to just have a cloth ticket when buying cloth. You also need to pay extra when buying cloth.

Since all the fabrics purchased were good ones from Shanghai No. 6 Cotton Factory, one foot was sold for 6 cents, so Han Xiaokang spent a total of 9.45 yuan.

Because cloth stamps, candy stamps, and cooking oil stamps are too expensive.

Therefore, the value of these three types of bills often exceeds the selling price.

Including the "King of Bills", "National Food Stamps", it also has the same market trend.

Therefore, the cloth coupons I bought from Fatty Qian this time were actually 2 cents more expensive than the cloth.

Then in order to make two new pairs of underwear, Han Xiaokang bought 5 feet of rags and spent 2.6 cents.

So now Han Xiaokang only has 14 yuan and 2 cents left on his body. Before, he still had 1 cent and 14 yuan and 2 cents in his pocket.

Takeaway money Fatty paid a deposit of 10 yuan in advance.

After a while, Han Xiaokang planned to go to the district office and buy 30 rounds of ammunition, which would cost another 9 yuan.

If you calculate it like this, you only have 14 yuan and 30 cents left in your pocket.

Now that I have officially been transformed into a hunter, if I want to be a qualified hunter, I can't do it without hounds.

After all, no matter how good you are, you can't just turn a blind eye or close one eye when you sleep at night, right?

After buying the fabric, Han Xiaokang took Zhou Min to the "Sewing Service Club" and asked a tailor to make clothes for his wife.

What I bought for Han Zhang this time was good combed cotton fabric. If I could take it home and ask someone from the production team who knew how to sew clothes by hand to help.

Han Xiaokang felt a little sorry for this good material.

After all, most of the clothes are hand-sewn without a sewing machine, so the stitches are fine and neat.

Mrs. Han Zhang did not come to the market.

Zhou Min can only do this for her when it comes to tailoring the clothes.

Fortunately, Zhou Min's figure is the same as that of her younger brother Zhou Jian. She is also petite and exquisite, and is not much different from Han Zhang's height.

Except for a certain part of Zhou Min that stands out.

But that's okay.

Because during this period, everyone wore loose clothes, and no one dared to wear tights that could cut their buttocks into two pieces.

Wait until the employees of the sewing service club take the measurements.

Han Xiaokang paid a "sewing service fee" of 2.5 yuan, considering that if he followed the normal process, he would not be able to get the clothes today.

So Han Xiaokang also paid a RMB 1 "expedited fee" so that the dozen or so employees of the sewing service agency could pick out two fast-moving masters.

So that I can give priority to making this set of clothes for myself.

Put away the receipt and prepare to go to the farmer's market.

Because at the farmer’s market,

After many farmers' dogs give birth to pups, they take them to the market to cash in.

Moreover, there are those who sell dogs secretly. They will also select some better native dogs from other districts and villages.

Then he went to farmers' markets in other districts and towns and pretended to be a pure farmer to sell.

"Xiaokang, do you want to buy a dog?"

On the way to the farmer's market, Zhou Min heard that Han Xiaokang wanted to buy two puppies and prepare them to become hunting helpers in the future.

Zhou Min smiled and asked: "Which kind of native dog can you recognize that can become a qualified hunting dog when it grows up?"

Han Xiaokang shook his head: "I can't recognize it. I only know that it's a ferocious little puppy. It should be right."

Zhou Min chuckled: "Look, when I asked you to take me shopping earlier, I saw that you were a little unhappy! Now you can use me, right?"

Han Xiaokang asked her: "What, you know how to pick a dog?"

"That is!"

Zhou Minjiao laughed: "Why don't you ask me why I handle wolf skins? Then think about it, since I can do that job well, why don't I know how to pick out dogs?"

Walking all the way to the farmer's market, talking along the way.

Only then did Han Xiaokang find out: It turned out that Zhou Min's uncle was a famous hunter from all over the country.

Zhou Min was raised in her uncle's house since she was a child. Later, her uncle had an accident and passed away.

Zhou Min then returned to her own home to live.

When we arrived at the farmer's market, it was already getting late, and many of the members selling chickens, ducks, geese, and eggs had already dispersed.

But for those selling kittens and puppies, there are still many people squatting there waiting for buyers.

In this period,

Food at home is very tight, and there are many people who like to keep dogs, but not so many people can afford to keep dogs.

Therefore, it is not so easy for those who sell kittens and puppies to wait for a suitable buyer.

When Han Xiaokang and Zhou Min were in the dog selling area, they were walking and observing the puppies for sale.

All the paparazzi were so frightened that they shrank into the corners of the cage while making "uh uh uh" noises.

Even the big dogs waiting for buyers were so frightened by the two that they clamped their tails, their limbs trembled, and their ears drooped.

Keep shrinking back

A member of the dog-selling club, while holding the dog leash tightly, asked jokingly, "Hey, didn't you see, this fair little brother, you are actually a dog killer?"

"You are the one who kills dogs and pigs!"

Others were just curious, so they asked.

But Zhou Min was unhappy: "Didn't you see that I am a cultured person? I just have long eyes and don't see anything, so I am very comfortable."

Most of the people selling dogs and cats in the market carry a sense of humility and humility brought about by poverty.

This is indeed very different from Han Xiaokang's calm and calm temperament.

The dog seller who said something extra was not annoyed when Zhou Min retorted him.

Instead, he bent down and quickly comforted the frightened big dog.

In fact, this guy asked the right question: Apart from people who have been killing dogs for a long time, who else can make local dogs shun them wherever they go?

Just because people who have been killing dogs for a long time have a unique aura about them.

When the local dogs 2 or 3 miles away heard the arrival of the dog-killing butcher, they were so frightened that they ran away!

Dogs that don't have time to escape will be like these dogs on the market, with their tails clamped and their whole bodies shaking.

"Woo——"

"Woo-"

Just as the cats and dogs were all frightened, a low, milky growl sounded from one of the cages.

Zhou Min walked straight to the dog cage, opened the bamboo fence cover above, and reached in to catch the dog: "Hey, so fierce? You still want someone. Have your baby teeth faded?"

while laughing,

Zhou Min grabbed the back of the dog's neck and raised it in the air to take a closer look, "How do you hold this dog?"

In rural areas of Bashu, commune members buy cats and dogs among themselves, not talking about buying and selling.

Instead, they say "hug a dog" and "hug a cat" to raise them.

Even if you have to give money,

It doesn't say buying or selling, but "seals a red envelope".

The dog seller was a tall, round-shouldered man with a cunning look in his eyes.

He just heard him say: "This is a good dog that is hard to find from a thousand miles away. I think you, a girl, don't want to ask for a high price."

And it’s getting late, and I’m in a hurry to go home! So just seal a red envelope worth 2 yuan and 40 cents.”

Zhou Min shook his head: "The dog is a good dog, but you are not very practical."

Uh. Are dogs better than people?

Isn't this an insult?

Dear readers, please give me a chase and never keep books.
