Siheyuan: After being reincarnated as a master's daughter

Chapter 53: There is no Ice Cream Assassin in the Era

So Yi Jiale said bluntly: "I have money and can treat you to three-cent popsicles, but you have to exchange them with toys or other things that I think are exchangeable! If I don't like them, I won't exchange them!"

The children all responded excitedly in unison:

"Okay! Tuanzi, auntie!"

"Okay! Tuanzi, you have to keep your word!"

"I have to go back and get my favorite toy first!"

"Hurry up! We won't wait for you if you're late!" Yi Jiale said, and then he pulled Lin Xiong to sit in the shade at the doorstep and wait for them.

Before Yi Jiale had to wait long, the children brought over everything they thought could be exchanged.

Fatty Wang and Fatty Wang gave Yi Jiale marbles: "Aunt Tuanzi, can you take a look at these five marbles? Can they be counted as ours?"

Yi Jiale looked at the five marbles and nodded in agreement, saying that both of them should have a share.

When the other children saw that the transaction was successful, they all picked up their toys and showed them to Yi Jiale.

"Aunt, this is a peach cake. Can I exchange it with you?" Liu Jiacheng ran home and got a peach cake!

Yi Jiale took the peach cake and nodded! This peach cake had been stored for a long time, but it was well preserved. Yi Jiale didn't dislike it, "Okay!!"

"Tuanzi, do you want this stamp?"

Yi Jiale didn’t know much about stamps, but he knew that stamps of this era had collectible value. Besides, a popsicle was only three cents, so he agreed!

The kid was so happy to get stamps!

Another child took out a steamed bun. Yi Jiale saw that he didn't usually eat it, so he didn't want it! He refused!

The child saw that everyone else had changed theirs, and he was the only one who hadn’t changed. He was so sad that he wanted to cry!

Yi Jiale quickly asked: "Don't you have any other toys?"

The child had a sad face and thought about it again and again in his mind. Finally, he thought of something and said to Yi Jiale: "I really have something, auntie, wait for me to go back and get it!"

After saying that, the child quickly ran home, dug out a few copper coins from the cracks in the wall, and quickly ran to the door, fearing that Yi Jiale and the others had already gone to buy popsicles and would not wait for him.

When Yi Jiale saw a few copper coins in the child's hand, which looked very old, he raised his eyebrows, took them, and agreed to buy popsicles for the child!

When the child heard Yi Jiale agreed to buy popsicles, he was so happy that he asked Yi Jiale, "Will you buy me popsicles next time? There are still several copper coins in the cracks in the wall at home."

When Yi Jiale heard that the kid still had several copper coins at home, he nodded in agreement and said to him, "Next time he brings copper coins, he can exchange them for popsicles with me!"

When the other children heard this, they all remembered that they also had some copper coins at home, and asked Yi Jiale if he could exchange them.

Yi Jiale waved his hand: "Quiet, everyone! You can exchange your coins with me, five coins for a popsicle! Three coins for a White Rabbit candy!"

When the children heard that Yi Jiale also had White Rabbit milk candies, they were so excited. Those who had copper coins at home were so happy that they all thought of going under the bed to search for more copper coins!

The children who didn't have copper coins at home looked at the children who said they had copper coins at home with envy and jealousy. They were so jealous that they could hang a kettle from their mouths!

Yi Jiale said, "Be quiet, everyone. If you don't have copper coins at home, you can exchange them with other things, like stamps, or anything I like?"

Yi Jiale: "Okay, let's stop chatting. Let's go to the supply and marketing cooperative first! It's so hot!"

The two older children insisted that Yi Jiale should be the king. They crossed their hands and asked Yi Jiale to sit on their hands. They wanted to carry Yi Jiale to the supply and marketing cooperative. Yi Jiale had never played this game before! He also sat on the hands of the two older children with great interest and was lifted up directly. The younger children surrounded him on both sides and shouted with a smile: "Let's go sell popsicles, let's go buy popsicles..."

The adults around looked at it a little funny, and the children from other yards nearby, hearing so many people going to buy popsicles, looked on with envy!

Yi Jiale and his group of children saw that the children in other courtyards were looking at them with envy, and they were even happier and prouder. Other children couldn't eat popsicles, but they all had popsicles to eat! ! They were so proud just thinking about it! They all walked with their heads held high and their chests puffed out!

When they reached the supply and marketing cooperative at the entrance of the alley, the two older children finally put Yi Jiale down. Since a bunch of children were walking to the door of the supply and marketing cooperative and were still shouting to buy popsicles, the people in the supply and marketing cooperative didn't chase them away!

Yi Jiale led everyone to the freezer. The salesperson helped open the cabinet and lifted the quilt, allowing the children to choose for themselves.

The kids first asked where the three-cent piece was from, and when they heard it was the colorful one, they all took their favorite flavors!

Yi Jiale looked at the popsicles in the freezer. For three cents he could buy popsicles with flavors such as banana, apple, and orange. For five cents he could buy popsicles with flavors such as red bean, cream, and red fruit. For ten cents he could buy popsicles with flavors such as tri-color, cream, coffee, and chocolate.

Yi Jiale was amazed. There really are no ice cream assassins in this era. Moreover, these popsicles are made by state-owned enterprises (Beijing Ice Factory). Food safety is top-notch. The food is all natural. Milk and cream have no additives. Eat with confidence! ! (?>?<?) (According to the author's research, in this era, making ice cream had to be published in the newspaper. After the founding of New China, Beijing vigorously rectified and improved the production of popsicles. In the workshop where the food factory makes popsicles, the tools and raw materials are scientifically disinfected and processed. All products must be sampled and tested before they are allowed to leave the factory.

In terms of the taste and price of popsicles, manufacturers also take into account the needs of the general public. For example, Yili Food Company changed its past practice of "rich people don't like to eat popsicles, poor people can't afford them" and lowered prices, improved quality, and sold popsicles at low prices and high volumes to the general public.

Yi Jiale never treats himself badly, so he picked out a 1-cent cream popsicle!

Lin Xiong saw Yi Jiale picked a 1-cent popsicle. Lin Xiong was not the kind of person who would let himself down, so he also bought a 1-cent cream popsicle! Lin Xiong paid for it himself!

Yi Jiale also gave the salesperson fifty cents, and the salesperson finally returned ten and sixteen cents to Yi Jiale.

Yi Jiale took the 16 cents, thought about it, took out another 10 cents and gave it to the salesperson, and asked for two more mung bean popsicles. Since the more expensive ice creams came in packaging bags, Yi Jiale didn't ask anyone for help and just held them in his arms!

Seeing Yi Jiale buy two more popsicles, Lin Xiong asked in confusion: "Tuanzi, why did you buy so many popsicles? My sister told me that if you eat too many popsicles, you will have diarrhea!"

Yi Jiale walked out with a smile while holding the popsicle: "It's so hot in this weather, I brought it for my parents. I wanted to buy a 5 cent popsicle, but I don't have enough money, so I can only buy a cent one!"

Lin Xiong felt a little embarrassed holding the popsicle in his hand. He was only thinking about eating it and didn't think about his sister and brother-in-law!

But then he thought, my sister and brother-in-law always close the door and stay at home, and I don’t know what they are doing? They always leave me at Tuanzi’s house. If I buy popsicles for my brother-in-law, he will chase me away. There is no need to think about them! ! So Lin Xiong took the cream popsicle and ate it with peace of mind!

Yi Jiale ran home quickly with the popsicle in her hand. Seeing that her arms were too short to hold the popsicle, Lin Xiong helped her take a popsicle from Yi Jiale's arms. After taking the popsicle, the two smiled at each other and ran home quickly.

The children were reluctant to eat the popsicles in just a few bites, and licked them slowly!
