The obedient Wang Xue put away the marriage certificate and put it in Yang Shuning's handbag, and also put the wedding ticket in.

In this era, when you get married, the civil affairs department will issue a wedding ticket. You can use this ticket to buy some things needed for the wedding. You can buy food, clothing, and even furniture. Every young couple who gets married can receive it.

To.

Then I went to the photo studio and took a group photo to commemorate their wedding. I ordered the largest size and paid the money and agreed to pick it up seven days later.

The two went home and put away their marriage certificate and the wedding candies in their bags. Wang Xue took the time to cook another lunch. After eating, the two took the bills and money and rushed to Wangfujing Department Store.

After locking their bicycles, the two entered the building and saw a sea of ​​people. Although it was a working day, there were still many people coming to shop or hang out.

In this era, Wangfujing Department Store had a unique treatment: "The whole country supports the capital, and the capital gives priority to the building." At that time, the department store was the only retail company in BJ that had the right to purchase goods nationwide and enjoyed the treatment of a second-level wholesale station.

Purchase directly from first-level wholesale stations in big cities such as Jinmen, Shanghai, and Guangdong at preferential prices.

Because of this, there was a popular saying in Beijing at that time: "Don't go anywhere if you can't buy it in a department store." The goods were plentiful and the prices were fair, which made queuing up to buy something the norm in department stores. There were many incidents in the mall.

Put up guardrails at fewer counters to prevent crowded customers from overwhelming the counters.

The two of them first came to the bicycle counter and saw that there were bicycles from the brands of Forever, Feige, Phoenix, Jinmen and other brands in the booth. They asked the salesperson about the prices of Forever and Phoenix.

The salesperson is not impatient. If it were the general public, the salesperson's attitude would not be very good. The current salesperson is ranked first among the eight members.

Whether it is a store in the city or a supply and marketing cooperative in the countryside, they are all state-owned enterprises with a monopoly nature. They have no other branches. Salespersons who work in stores or supply and marketing cooperatives have higher wages and benefits than ordinary factory employees.

It has a lot of benefits and is a real "golden rice bowl".

Not only that, the salesperson is "first come, first served", and can also buy in-demand commodities that others can't even scratch their heads, such as sugar, bicycles, cloth, etc., which is really enviable.

Otherwise, how could there be such a widely circulated saying as "Zhang Hua was admitted to BJ University; Li Ping entered a secondary technical school; I worked as a salesperson in a department store: we all have a bright future."

This is also the reason why Yang Shuning's family is not short of tickets. His mother is the section chief of the supply and marketing cooperative. She has access to much more resources than ordinary salespersons.

Yang Shuning is now wearing an officer's uniform, Wang Xue is beautifully dressed, and the salespersons are all bright-eyed owners. If ordinary people come to see the car, they will ask if they have tickets. Seeing the two people's clothes, they know that they are not the ones who can confirm the tickets.

.

Today's tickets are not like what later generations thought. You can buy whatever brand you want. The bicycle ticket states the brand of the bicycle and which unit issued it. For example, Yang Shuning's ticket states the permanent 11-type bicycle.

Distributed by the Beijing Military Medical College and stamped with the seal of the college.

The salesperson introduced the permanent 11-type 28-bar and Phoenix women's bicycles in detail. Yang Shuning and Wang Xue were also people who were not short of money. They didn't say anything and just bought them. Phoenix Bicycle bought two bicycles and the other one was given to Yang's mother.

I also equipped the two cars with accessories such as headlights, taillights, and baskets. In total, the permanent 11 model cost 195 yuan, and the Phoenix 26 women's model cost 186 yuan each. A total of 567 yuan. I gave the money.

and receipts, please ask the salesperson to help keep them first, and then come over to pick up the goods after they have bought other things.

After taking the receipt, the two went to the watch counter. Since their watch tickets stated Shanghai watches, they could only buy Shanghai brand watches. After choosing for a long time, Yang Shuning bought Shanghai brand 1120 military watches.

The watch is priced at 120 yuan, and Wang Xue’s is a women’s watch, priced at 110 yuan. Today’s Shang Hai watches usually have to be wound, otherwise they won’t run. Unlike the Patek Philippe watches at home, which are mechanical watches and are usually worn with

Your hands will automatically become stronger.

This watch makes Yang Shuning want to take out the ones at home and use them, but after thinking about it, he decided not to do it. Caution comes first. Next time, you can go to the trust store and ask Yang’s mother to introduce you to the trust store. You can always buy it.

For a good watch, you can spend a little more money, and you can have a receipt to prove the source.

Unlike the watches at home, although they were confiscated by my father, there was no evidence and they would be regarded as enemy agents and then stop. The ones from the trust store did not have this problem. There was a receipt for the purchase, and the family income

It’s not low and can be worn generously.

Men, when you are poor, you play with cars, and when you are rich, you play with watches. Nowadays, you can’t play with cars, you can only play with watches.

Taking the receipt, the two of them put on their watches directly, and then went to a place that sold ready-made clothes. Yang Shuning simply chose two half-sleeved shirts and a pair of black pants. There were not many styles of men's ready-made clothes at this time, so there was nothing to choose from, and he

I usually wear military uniforms, so there is no need to buy more.

After thinking about it, I bought a few more pieces for my younger brother. My younger brother has recently grown taller and it’s time to wear new clothes. My older brother is getting married, so he should also wear new clothes.

I bought Wang Xue three more "Braj" dresses imported from the former Soviet Union, which are dresses with loose short sleeves, pleated skirts, simple round necks, florals, plaids and stripes, and a cloth belt around the waist.

A total of one piece of cloth was spent, plus thirty-six yuan.

After paying the ticket, Yang Shuning took Wang Xue to the shoe counter. There was nothing to choose from in leather shoes. There were no styles for both men and women these days. I bought two pairs of black women's leather shoes for Wang Xue for fifteen yuan and sixty cents.

I went to the radio counter, took out the receipt, and bought the Panda 601-1 tube radio for 70 yuan.

After buying a bicycle, a watch, clothes, shoes, and a radio, the mission of going to the department store was completed. They already had a sewing machine at home, so the two decided not to buy it. Having one at home was enough, and they didn't want to separate their homes.

, why buy more.

Now that she came to the department store, Wang Xue's female nature began to kick in. She took Yang Shuning and walked around the building again, buying some scattered things that would be used at home in the future, and finally bought two more.

cloth and forty pounds of cotton, and I am going to go back and ask the master to make a few quilts.

After leaving the building, Yang Shuning called a landlord and paid him to take the purchased items and the old bicycle back to the courtyard. Then he and Wang Xue pushed the newly purchased bicycle to the nearest police station, took out the receipt to the police, and gave the bicycle

You must pay insurance in addition to the license plate.

Nowadays, bicycles must be registered to prove their ownership and origin. The money is not much, and the three bicycles cost a total of 9 yuan.
Chapter completed!
