Return to 1983 and be a detective

The free market next to Longshui Cinema is full of people coming and going. In those days when you had to show a ticket to buy anything here, if you want to buy something good, this is the right place.

Xushan's clothing stall is located here. Pieces of leggings and dresses, with bright colors and new styles, are hung on hangers. When the occasional breeze blows, the clothes are fluttering, as if there are many butterflies. There is dancing here.

Xu Shan is wearing toad glasses, a Panama hat on his head, a floral shirt, and bell-bottom pants. He looks very fashionable no matter how he looks.

Normally, you have to shout when doing business, but Xu Shan didn't say a word. He just took a cardboard and wrote: "Imported from the United States, high-end fashion, today's promotion price is 25 yuan per piece."

Then just sit there and wait.

In this free market, everyone who sells anything shouts, and everyone competes with one another to have a louder voice. As a result, everyone is attracted by the quietness here in Xushan and come to watch one after another.

Because Longshui has more mountains and less land, there have been more people doing business since ancient times. Basically, people in Longshui have their own business experience.

But even though they have seen all kinds of business tricks, they have never seen anyone like Xu Shan. There is no way to do business without shouting.

"The clothes on this stall are really nice, but why doesn't he yell?"

"Didn't you notice that he is wearing toad glasses? He is probably blind."

"You are really interesting. The blind man is not mute, so how could he not shout? Even the blind fortune teller on the bridge knows how to shake a small bell."

"That makes sense. It's no wonder his family has no business."

"Let's just watch. If this thing is put on display for a few days, and if it can't be sold, the price will be lowered. Then we'll come back to buy bargains."

"It's so beautiful. This dress is very fashionable. It looks better than what the actors on TV wear."

No wonder these people say this. These days, everyone wears clothes with a single color and a single look. Both men and women wear the kind of gray clothes that are easy to work, durable and washable.

However, with the spring breeze blowing everywhere, everyone's ideas have quietly sprouted, and the pursuit of beauty has become a bit overwhelming.

There was a song at that time that went like this: "My heart is burning, my heart is burning, I can't shut it down..."

As everyone's minds become more active, the requirements for clothing are gradually increasing.

So they were all attracted by such beautiful clothes and came to watch one after another. Of course they were just watching, but they were frightened by the price of 25 yuan per piece.Damn it, one piece of clothing costs a month's salary. They can't afford such expensive clothing even if they want to.

Of course, the people of Longshui are actually quite wealthy, especially the workers in the factory. Their jobs are stable, the harvest is guaranteed during droughts and floods, and their requirements for clothes are also increasing year by year.Otherwise, no one in white shoes would dare to go out wearing a Citizen worth more than 300 yuan. That would cost an average person a year's salary to wear on her hand. But when she wore it, no one seemed to say anything.

The scorching sun made the cicadas scream even louder, but there were more and more people watching the fun, and everyone ran over to see the blind and mute stall owner.

No one asked about the price, but Xu Shan was not in a hurry. When he saw that no one was buying, he took out his pen and wrote down the price.

There were two young girls in the crowd, looking eagerly at the clothes on the rack, and couldn't help but be extremely happy when they saw Xu Shan changing the price.

One of the girls, Liu Hongti, shook her companion's arm and said to Xuemei, "Did you see that, he's going to change the price."

Xiang Xuemei showed an expected expression: "I'm really unsure. I can't hold on so soon. Let's see how much he can lower the price later."

Liu Hongti said with emotion: "I think it's not a loss if it costs less than ten yuan for such beautiful clothes."

Xiang Xuemei is an owner I have met before. Her family is in good condition and she knows the goods well: "For ten yuan, you really dare to think that this dress doesn't need to be touched with your hands. You can tell it is high-quality just by looking at it. You Look at this beige dress, it seems to be worn by the actress in some TV series, the actor named Ming Ming who appeared on the cover of Elephant Movie?"

Liu Hongti felt a little embarrassed when Xiang Xuemei said this, so she corrected her: "Isn't your father the director of the Cultural Affairs Bureau? Isn't he quite educated? Why are you Mr. White Letter? It's called a popular movie. Anyway, it's ten I’ll buy it for only [-] yuan, if it’s more expensive, I won’t be able to part with it…”

Xiang Xuemei smiled disdainfully at Liu Hongti, a plastic sister: "I have to take a look again. If it can be reduced to 20 yuan, I will buy one. It will be the first one in Quanlongshui. Everyone else is wearing it." He's a follower..."

Onlookers thought that Xu Shan was going to make it cheaper, but Xu Shan changed the price to 26 yuan per piece.

Now the crowd was in an uproar.

Everyone thinks this seller is crazy. You can’t sell your stuff, but you still sell it at a high price. What else is this if you’re not a fool?

When the price was changed, Liu Hong tilted her nose angrily: "Is he being careless? Why did he change the price to a higher price?"

Xiang Xuemei was also shocked by Xu Shan's actions. She looked at Xu Shan and felt that this young man seemed familiar.

However, she did not associate Xu Shan with the person at the Xiang family's birthday party. After all, that person was Xiang Jinsong's friend, and it was said that he was also a partner, and he should not show up in this free market.

In Xiang Xuemei's heart, setting up a stall to do business is low-level. Such a person is not worthy of being friends with Xiang's family, even if she has no good impression of Xiang Jinsong.

Xu Shan was indifferent to everyone's comments and still sat firmly on the Diaoyutai.

An hour later, Xu Shan looked at his watch and changed the price to 27 yuan per item. Still no one bought it. He waited another hour and changed the price to 28 yuan.

At this time, a small car drove over and stopped not far from the stall. Several people carried color TVs, black and white TVs, and some pushed bicycles to the side of the stall. They placed these things beside the stall and took them. Get some cardboard with "Prizes" written on it and hang it on top of these items.

Xu Shan took out a piece of cardboard. It said on the cardboard that in the lucky draw event, anyone who spends 30 yuan or more at this stall can get a chance to draw a prize. The prizes include: a set of Ling Ling Ai antennas, a Panda color TV, West Lake black and white TV, Phoenix bicycle, fashionable dress, high-end stepping pants...

Anyway, the value of the prize is staggeringly high.

Now everyone was very excited.

After all, this is the first time Longshui people have seen this kind of thing.

So everyone talked a lot and felt that this form was fresh and exciting.There are also people who think that pie in the sky will never fall, but they don’t dare to say anything, so they crane their necks and wait to watch the show.
