Don't look at the many people wearing Bragi on the street, it's not easy to buy this thing.

Once you enter the clothing counter of a department store, it is like a big purchase, with several floors inside and outside. Xu Nannan squeezed for a long time before he squeezed inside. If it wasn't for wanting to experience the costumes of this era, she really wouldn't be guilty of it.

"Comrade, four Bragis." Xu Nannan clapped his fingers. "Two yellows, two reds."

The salesperson smiled and took out a sign "Sold Out" from under the counter. Want to buy Bragi, order in advance, yellow is gone, red? That color is gone.

Who are you kidding? Don't bully me that I haven't watched TV, those protagonists who know the salesperson at the counter can't buy anything.

The crowd dispersed, Xu Nannan leaned on the counter and looked at the salesperson inside with a smile.

"Comrade, we came all the way here, we can't go back empty-handed."

The salesperson wearing lipstick sat and ate melon seeds, "Little comrade, I really don't have any. If I had one, I would definitely get it for you. Otherwise, so many people just didn't buy it."

"That's it..." Xu Nannan blinked and looked at her lipstick, "Comrade, your lipstick color is not bad. This lipstick is not easy to buy, I haven't seen it in the mall."

"That's right, this is not easy to buy, you have to ask for foreign exchange." There was an indescribable embarrassment in his tone. These days, being able to use foreign exchange to buy things is a matter of face.

Xu Nannan smiled, "Actually, my friend also brought me a few."

As he spoke, he lowered his head and rummaged through the bag, and took the opportunity to buy some lipsticks from Taobao. Tear off the plastic paper and take the things outside.

"Look, there are all kinds of colors." Several lipsticks in black plastic packaging were placed on the counter.

What women like most, besides what they wear, is definitely cosmetics. Seeing the brightly colored lipstick that Xu Nannan took out, the eyes of the two salesmen straightened.

It’s not easy to buy one, but how many are there

And there are more colors.

"Comrade, where did you buy this?" The lipstick-wearing salesperson came over and picked up a peach red, "I haven't seen this kind of red before."

The salesman next to him also said, "I haven't seen anything like this in this mall." The mall also has this kind of foreign exchange counter, but the items inside are not only expensive, but also rare.

"Isn't there some business in the unit that needs to deal with foreign friends? They helped to bring them in from outside. There are not many, just these few."

The two listened and looked at each other.

The roll sale salesman said, "Oh, comrade, would you like to give us some money? We don't have foreign exchange, can I give you industrial bonds?"

"No foreign exchange..." Xu Nannan was a little embarrassed, "I don't really want foreign exchange, but I'm thinking that you don't have Bragi. I want to exchange some foreign exchange and let someone bring it from outside."

The meaning is obvious.

We want Bradj.

The salesperson who put on lipstick sighed, she could tell that the little girl did it on purpose. People knew they were tricky at all, "Okay, I'll admit it." He said to the curly-haired salesman next to him, "Don't we still have a few in the warehouse, show this comrade."

Anyway, I keep it for acquaintances, and it will be the same next time. This lipstick may not necessarily come across. The key is that foreign exchange is not easy to handle. It's not easy to buy when you get it.

In the face of beauty, friendship is relatively fragile.

So two lipsticks bought for tens of dollars were exchanged for four pieces of Bragi, and no industrial vouchers were required.

This business is worth it.

Buy Bragi, hurry to buy small leather shoes. You need top layer leather, small leather shoes with round toes, the style is really single. Brought a pair for Zhu Fang, and held it in his hand. Xu Nannan looked at it for a long time, but didn't buy it for himself, so he went to buy a pair of back-to-back white sneakers, which would look good with Bragi. Still low-key.

After shopping for a long time, Xu Nannan was in a good mood and prepared to go back with his things.

Not long after walking out of the shopping mall, Xu Nannan felt that someone was following him.

Xu Nannan still believed in intuition, which was unclear. Feeling that the law and order in Shanghai is so bad. Well, it's the first time I've been watched by someone since I've been here for so long.

He lowered his head and rummaged in the bag, and bought a bottle of anti-wolf spray for preparation.

While preparing to find a car on the side of the road, I felt the people behind me getting closer. Xu Nannan was about to get goose bumps all over his body. The face is quite calm, this is a public place, so it should not do anything.

"Hi, comrade."

A young man walked over from behind. Wearing youth attire, combing back hair, straight brows, double eyelids, and a small red mouth. So delicate Xiaobai... little handsome guy.

Xu Nannan took a look and looked away. She is really not interested in this kind of little boy.

The young man touched his back, as if he began to doubt his own charm. He raised his hand, revealing the watch on his wrist. Xu Nannan glanced at it, then raised his hand to check the time.

Big back: "..."

This is meeting a smart person. Dabeitou touched his own head again, and smiled very kindly, "It's actually like this. I just went to buy Bragi, and they said that you bought them all. Tell me, I am a long way away. You can't go back in time, otherwise how can you explain to the lesbians at home? Just thinking if you can give me a share."

Xu Nannan raised his brows, thinking beautifully, I spent so much effort to change it. Here you go, what should I wear. Zhu Fang wanted one, and the other two girls from the Mining Committee also wanted one, and she had to wear one too...

"If you can't even it out, lipstick is fine too. I don't dislike it either." The big-backed head said reluctantly, just like how reluctant Braggy was to change to lipstick.

It was the first time Xu Nannan met such a thick-skinned person, who would allow him to change his lipstick? She has always stayed away from such young men who strike up a conversation.

"No more." Xu Nannan tightened his bag, and walked a few steps forward. Why are there so few taxis here, and they kept waving. What do you do with foreign friends all day long, we are your compatriots who love each other.

Finally a car drove up. Just as Xu Nannan was about to get into the car, Da Bei stepped forward and stuffed a foreign exchange certificate, "Master, you are busy, she is having trouble with me."

Xu Nannan stared, stretched out his hand and pushed, "Master, I don't know him."

The master took a look at the two of them, and said, "Take care of your partner well, what's the matter?" As he spoke, he stepped on the gas pedal, and the car drove away.

Xu Nannan's eyes were red with anger. Can you stop being so simple, what people say is what they say.

"Comrade, don't be angry, don't be angry, calm down." Dabeitou said with a smile, "I'm not wrong, you are just fighting with me. If you give me the lipstick, I will leave immediately. Never bother you."

Xu Nannan felt that he didn't bring his almanac with him when he went out today, so why did he meet such a person. Xu Nannan didn't want to make trouble when he was away from home, so he reluctantly took out a lipstick. Not worth the money anyway. Can't do it.

"No, it's bright red, and it's for my grandma." Dabeitou said unwillingly. He asked everything clearly, and people said that this girl has bright red lipstick.

Well, this is still a filial grandson. Holding back his breath, Xu Nannan took out another big red one from his bag.

The big back brought it over, looked at it with both hands, and put the things in his pocket shamelessly, "Okay, I want both, one for my grandma and one for my sister." He said and took out the money.

There is still a lot of money, a large stack, including industrial certificates, cash, and foreign exchange certificates.

They didn't take advantage of it, and took out two foreign exchange certificates with a face value of 10 yuan. Xu Nannan took it directly, frowning reluctantly and left. Turning around, a big smile appeared on his face immediately, earn it!

As soon as she left, a few young men in green military uniforms ran over, surrounded their big backs, and said with a crew cut, "Brother Song, you really got it. Brother Song, you absolutely have to surrender." Just now they saw that the two women were holding four pieces of clothes, and only changed two pieces of lipstick. Go inquire, this thing is not easy to buy. Brother Song brought a lot of foreign exchange certificates, but it was hard to buy them. Otherwise, there is no need to tease other little girls.

"Fuck you bastard, don't let me do this kind of thing. If it doesn't make the old lady happy, I don't care." The main reason is that it is too embarrassing. If he hadn't been so brazen, the little girl wouldn't buy it Woolen cloth. It's too embarrassing to let these grandchildren know.

Handed the lipstick to Xiaopingtou, "The pink one is for your sister, and the bright red one is for our old lady."

Xiaoping took it over happily, "Brother, Auntie..."

"Don't care about her, people don't care too much."

His delicate face immediately became very stern, and it was difficult for others to say anything. It's really unclear about Brother Song and Auntie. A young man who was a little smaller said, "Send me, we've been out for so long, should we go back, when we go back to school, they will definitely look for us, let our parents know, and we will definitely be beaten again."

None of the old men in the family are gentle.

Da Bei said, "I'm not going to go back, I'm going to find my brother, you go back by yourself, and don't tell your family where I've been, or I'll be in a hurry with you."

You have always said that, who dares to say it.

When Xu Nannan returned to the guest house, there was also news from the Taobao store that his new 'assistant' had already ordered those parts for her in the hardware factory, and it would take three days. Xu Nannan counted the time, and it was just right from departure to return.

It's been long enough, it's time to go home.

In the evening, I took out the family heirloom and played with it for a while. The more I looked at it, the more beautiful it became. Unfortunately, it will take a long time before I can wear it. Get up in the morning and pack your things. After leaving the room, thinking about his rare visit to Shanghai, Xu Nannan went to the recycle bin again, and bought a few calligraphy and paintings this time.

The elder sister in blue said, "I watched Qiao's family talk to you that day. What are you talking about? Do you still have to sell materials for you? Let me tell you, buy good materials if you want to buy them. For example, jade, gold and silver. Those are the ones that are worth the money.”

Xu Nannan smiled, with a calm face, "How could she give me these good things, she just told me that the material is good material, and told me not to make a small bench, but a wooden box."

"I said, why are you pulling me to talk." The elder sister in blue smiled and didn't ask again.

After leaving the toll booth, Xu Nannan breathed a sigh of relief. These days, it really can't be too simple.

After thinking about it, Xu Nannan went around again, bought some antipyretics and cold medicine, took out the pills and packed them in a white cloth bag. Marked above. Turning to the side of West Street, the old lady was sweeping the floor in front, and the little boy was sitting sickly not far away.

Xu Nannan didn't say hello, walked over and put the cloth bag in the child's arms, turned around and left without saying a word.

It doesn't matter, if you get a family heirloom, you won't owe anyone in the future.
