Chapter 1475
Several more security guards and sales clerks came, holding red strips, isolating the vegetable area from the surrounding customers.
"What's going on?"
"Exactly, we haven't bought it yet, why pull this thing?"
"..."
Dissatisfied questions came one after another, and those behind who didn't know the situation were still squeezing forward, and curses came from the crowd from time to time.
Seeing that it was getting more and more crowded, the broadcast in the mall rang.
"Dear customers and friends, hello everyone. I am Wang Wanquan, Manager of the Logistics Department of Grand Mart. First of all, I wish the people of Beijing a Happy Spring Festival.
Secondly, due to traffic reasons, the vegetable transport vehicles that should have arrived at noon today were delayed, so vegetable sales will be suspended.
However, please rest assured, dear customers and friends, sales will resume tomorrow, and we promise that before the Spring Festival, the vegetable supply of Grand Mart Supermarket will not be interrupted again, and it will definitely meet the needs of our customers and friends."
Hearing that there would be something to sell tomorrow, the somewhat restless crowd calmed down.
Green vegetables are so expensive, it's just to eat something fresh during the New Year.
Moreover, even if you buy it today, you are reluctant to eat it, and you have to keep it for New Year's Eve.
Since there will be some tomorrow, just come over again then.
But you must come early, don't wait until then to queue for a long time.
………………
Dou Xiaomin and her husband Che Hongwei, with their daughter Che Yan, finally bought green vegetables.
Then they turned around and squeezed out of the crowd, and the three of them let out a long sigh of relief.
Che Yan carried two large bags of small snacks in both hands, panting and said.
"I was almost squeezed flat."
Che Hongwei carried the vegetables grabbed in his hands, including garlic sprouts, cucumbers, green beans, and eggplants.
"If it weren't for your father protecting you, you would definitely have been squeezed flat."
Dou Xiaomin waved her hand: "Let's go, go buy fish and meat, and then go find big brother and sister-in-law."
The family came to the meat area, and there were quite a few people, but it was not like buying vegetables, as if it didn't cost money.
After buying meat, they bought two fish and a jin of shrimp, and then came to the grain and oil area.
Big brother Dou Guoyong and sister-in-law Gui Fenge were waiting on the side, with a pile of things at their feet.
In addition to rice, white flour, soybean oil, there are also seasonings and dried goods.
"Here!" Dou Guoyong shouted.
Dou Xiaomin's family of three walked over, put down what they had in their hands, and then looked at the things on the ground, worriedly said.
"There are too many people, we didn't even grab a shopping cart. How to take so many things out?"
Dou Guoyong said: "I will carry the rice and white flour, you guys take other things."
"No!" Dou Xiaomin shook her head: "You carry the rice, let Hongwei carry the white flour."
In this era, ordinary people buy rice and white flour in small quantities, rarely in bags.
Therefore, rice is almost always 100 jin per bag, and white flour is 80 jin per bag.
Dou Guoyong once carried bags at the train station, and carrying 180 jin was no problem, but it would definitely be strenuous.
"Okay!" Che Hongwei first bent down and picked up the white flour: "Help me."
Dou Guoyong hurriedly dragged the bottom of the bag and sent the white flour to Che Hongwei's shoulder.
"Can you do it?"
Che Hongwei is in the system, has always been sitting in the office, when has he carried such heavy things.
"It's okay," Che Hongwei waved his hand: "Hurry up, I can still hold on now, it won't be certain if I stay for a while."
Dou Xiaomin said with a smile: "Look at your small physique, carrying a bag of white flour is so strenuous, you have to exercise well."
"Exactly!" Daughter Che Yan followed and said: "The body is the capital of the revolution, Dad, you really have to exercise."
"You are everywhere!" Che Hongwei glared at his daughter, carried the white flour and walked forward: "Hurry up."
Dou Guoyong grabbed the rice bag with both hands, used force with both arms, and threw it onto his shoulder very easily, and then carried a lot of things with both hands again.
"Let's go."
The rest, not only Dou Xiaomin and Gui Fenge, but even Che Yan carried a lot of things in both hands.
In the checkout area, fifty checkout counters were all lined up with long queues.
"All lined up in such a long queue," Che Hongwei grinned and put the white flour on the ground: "When will this have to be lined up?"
"Fortunately, I asked for leave in the afternoon," Dou Xiaomin looked at the long queue in front and said: "Otherwise, the one-hour break at noon would not be enough to queue."
After more than half an hour, it was finally their turn, after scanning the code.
"472.8."
The cashier's words immediately attracted the attention of many people.
Buying New Year goods, spending a month's salary, who is this.
Under the gaze of everyone, Dou Xiaomin took out a gold card from her bag.
The big VIP on the front is very conspicuous, the top left corner is the three words Grand Mart, and there is a string of numbers below.
The back is a circular architectural pattern, the three words Qiu Dongfang are just above the pattern, and the bottom right corner is the three words New Year Gift Card.
The cashier took the gold card, tapped on the keyboard for a while, and entered the string of numbers on it.
"This is your Qiu Dongfang New Year Gift Card. On the basis of the existing discount, all products in the store will be discounted by another 95%, which is actually 449.16."
Then, in the surprised eyes of everyone, Dou Xiaomin put away the card, didn't see her pay, and left with the things.
This immediately led to a lot of discussion among people. Those who were curious asked the cashier.
"Comrade, what's the matter with the New Year Gift Card that the female comrade just took? Not only can it be discounted, but I didn't see her pay."
The cashier said while busy: "Have you heard of Qiu Dongfang?"
The man shook his head: "No!"
The cashier said with a smile: "Qiu Dongfang is Hong Kong-funded, Grand Mart was invested by Qiu Dongfang, and the female comrade just now is an employee of Qiu Dongfang.
That card of hers is a benefit issued by the company, with money in it, and it was deducted directly when checking out."
"So that's it," the man realized, and then asked curiously: "The benefits of foreign companies are very good, right."
"Indeed, Qiu Dongfang employees were directly issued 1,200 yuan, stored in that card, and can be bought at will in Grand Mart, whatever they want to buy."
The cashier said, tapping the keyboard quickly twice: "53.5."
The man sighed and took out money to check out: "It has to be a foreign company. The benefits for the New Year are worth a quarter of my salary."
At this time, an aunt couldn't help but ask: "Girl, you are also considered a foreign company employee, do you also have that kind of card?"
"Yes!" A proud expression appeared on the cashier's face: "Although the money issued is not as much as Qiu Dongfang employees, our discount for purchasing products is large, only 80%."
The aunt's eyes lit up: "Doesn't that mean that the money you spend on oil, salt, sauce, and vinegar in a year is much less than ours."
"How is that possible," the cashier said with a smile: "It's just the New Year gift money issued inside. After it's spent, we buy things, and it's the same as you."
"Girl!" The aunt's eyes were getting brighter and brighter, looking at the cashier: "You are not very old, have you found a partner?"
……………………
(I wrote fifty checkout counters before, and some students said it was too exaggerated. In October, my supermarket had a discount event, and it was really crowded with people. When I went, I couldn't even grab a shopping cart.
After going in, I couldn't take a step at all, I could only rub forward with the crowd. When checking out, I queued for more than 20 minutes, watched two martial arts performances, and specifically counted, there were 38 checkout counters in total.
It's just that they are not all open usually. As for how many are open, I didn't pay attention usually, I guess only half were open.)
