Iron wires radiated from the cashier to the surrounding counters, about as thick as bicycle wires. These wires were polished to a shiny finish and stretched very tight.

One or several iron clips were hung on each thick iron wire, and some had iron clips nailed to a small piece of wood. This was the cash register equipment at that time.

The salespersons of many cloth shops will also use a bamboo ruler to measure cloth as a tool, and hit the iron clamp like a ball. While waiting for the end, the salesperson starts packaging and bundling for customers, and the cloth seller starts measuring and cutting the cloth.

Down.

After a while, the iron clip suddenly arrived with the sound of wind, holding the receipt stamped with the receipt and the change. Even if it was a coin, it would not fall out in the middle.

When Wang Lin was still very young, he saw this payment method when he went to state-owned stores. He didn't expect that there are shopping malls in Beijin that still retain this payment method.

When you are in a shop like this, you can see the spiderweb-like iron wires above your head and watch the iron clips flying back and forth, which is also a unique scenery.

The salesperson handed Tian Xiaoqing the two cents in change and the handkerchief.

The two of them walked out of the store and walked forward, arriving at the department store.

Tian Xiaoqing said: "Shall we go shopping in the department store? It's so lively here!"

"Okay." Wang Lin said with a smile, "This is the first large-scale department store in Beijin! It has the reputation of being the first store in China!"

Beijin City Department Store is a newly built department store after liberation. The first floor is for daily necessities and household appliances, the second floor is for leather shoes, hats, and stationery, and the third floor is for fabrics and ready-made clothes. In 1989, a toy and entertainment shopping mall was added.

Promoted to a national second-level enterprise.

When you walk into the store, your first impression is that it is very big and has all kinds of materials.

Wang Lin ht Xiaoqing walked from the first floor to the second floor.

Tian Xiaoqing wanted to buy a pair of shoes, so she lingered in front of the shoe cabinet.

Wang Lin pointed to a pair of leather shoes and said to the salesperson: "Comrade, please try on a pair of size 37 shoes."

Tian Xiaoqing smiled and said: "How do you know I wear size 37 shoes?"

"I touched your feet! I already knew that, okay?" Wang Lin looked at her and smiled.

The salesperson said: "This shows that your lover is interested in you! It's not like my family. We have been married for seven or eight years, and he doesn't even know what shoe size I wear! I feel very affectionate when I see you two!"

Wang Linht Xiaoqing looked at each other speechlessly.

The salesperson took some leather shoes and gave them to Tian Xiaoqing to try on.

Tian Xiaoqing put it on her feet, looked around and said with a smile: "It looks pretty good, it makes my feet look so delicate."

The salesperson said: "Your script is not big, and your wife is very good at choosing styles. These are our latest models, produced by Beijin Leather Shoe Factory. They are genuine leather shoes, and the quality is guaranteed!"

Just as Tian Xiaoqing was about to ask how much it cost, Wang Lin took out a hundred-dollar bill and handed it to the salesperson: "I bought it."

"You don't even want to ask how much it costs?" Tian Xiaoqing sneered.

Wang Lin said: "It only costs 30 to 40 yuan, so how expensive can it be? They can't bargain in this store anyway! Just buy it if you like it!"

There was a strange brilliance flowing in Tian Xiaoqing's eyes.

The salesperson smiled and said: "Comrade, you are right, our shoes cost 38.6 yuan, and they are guaranteed to be genuine leather."

Wang Lin said: "Okay, I trust your store."

The salesperson issued a receipt, helped with the purchase, got the change, got a bag, and packed Tian Xiaoqing's old shoes.

Tian Xiaoqing said: "Running outside every day is just a waste of shoes."

Wang Lin said: "If it breaks, just buy it."

The two of them continued shopping.

Wang Lin came to the clothing counter to look at the styles and prices sold there so that he could compare them with his own products.

Because the clothing store he opened is located near a department store, this store will be the most competitive in the future.

After walking around, Wang Lin had a clear idea.

Many of the clothes sold in department stores are different from those in Xiuzhilin!

Moreover, the prices here are relatively expensive, and there is no bargaining.

Xiuzhilin's clothing has fashionable styles and exquisite fabrics, but the price has certain advantages.

Wang Lin believes that after his store opens, it will definitely outperform department stores.

Tian Xiaoqing said: "The dressing habits of northerners are still a little different from those of southerners. Does your clothing store also want to make some clothes that meet the aesthetics of northerners?"

"It's definitely needed," Wang Lin said, "and it's cold in the north, so winter clothes will require thicker cotton coats and down jackets."

The two of them walked around and then went downstairs.

When passing a lingerie store, Tian Xiaoqing stopped and took a few glances.

Wang Lin asked: "Go in and take a look?"

Tian Xiaoqing smiled shyly: "Just wait for me outside."

Wang Lin smiled and said, "Are you still shy?"

Tian Xiaoqing rolled her eyes at him: "I'm buying a bra and shorts!"

"Well, you go buy it!" Wang Lin knew that she was thin-skinned, so he lit a cigarette outside.

Tian Xiaoqing entered the underwear store and saw some strange clothes inside. She couldn't help but feel curious and asked the clerk: "What are these?"

"It's also underwear. This is the most popular style abroad, and it's a little more interesting."

"Ah?" Tian Xiaoqing suddenly blushed. This was the first time she saw such a thing being sold!

The store was not big, so Wang Lin could hear the conversation inside even while standing outside. Hearing this, he couldn't help but walk in and look at the underwear. He thought how interesting it would be if he bought these for Shen Xue to wear?

I didn’t expect to see such interesting styles here!

But in front of Tian Xiaoqing, he was embarrassed to buy it, and thought that one day I would come over and buy it myself!

When Tian Xiaoqing saw him coming in, he couldn't help but smile: "Wang Lin, look at these!"

Wang Lin said: "It looks very good! Do you want to buy it back and try it out?"

The clerk immediately said: "These styles of ours are all purchased from Xiangjiang and are not sold in general places. In fact, this style of bras and pants are already very popular abroad. You two are a young couple and you bought them back.

It definitely adds interest!”

Tian Xiaoqing bent over with a smile, supported Wang Lin with her hands, and whispered: "Why do we look like husband and wife? Do others see us as husband and wife?"

The store clerk talked endlessly about the wonderful uses of these clothes.

Tian Xiaoqing's ears turned red when she heard it. She even said no, and then chose a few normal products.

Wang Lin paid for her.

When the two of them walked out of the store, Tian Xiaoqing was still laughing: "Wang Lin, tell me, what do women look like wearing those things? Aren't you ashamed?"

Wang Lin looked at her graceful figure and thought that it would look good on you, but he just thought about it and could never say it out loud.

He was thoughtful, and it naturally showed on his face, and his eyes became a little colorless.
