Having sold all her goods, Shen Yunfang calculated her earnings and found she had made a total of 1,367.80 yuan. Among the various miscellaneous coupons she valued most were a bicycle coupon and over a dozen special supply alcohol coupons.
This trip was a success and quite lucrative. Would she be able to do this every year? Shen Yunfang thought cheerfully as she pocketed the money.
Of course, she wasn't stingy, with money earned, she had to think about how to spend it, and she did indeed have some things she needed to buy.
Therefore, on the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, she went to the largest shopping center in the county first thing in the morning, The First Department Store Building.
The building had three floors, the first of which sold groceries. Half of it was dedicated to condiments of varying quality, all kinds of sugar balls, pastries, and areas for tobacco, alcohol, sugar, and tea, while the other half housed pots, pans, and kitchen utensils.
