Chapter 10
In the wholesale market, frozen chicken and duck were cheaper, so Wen Qian spent four thousand yuan on buying whole chickens and ducks.
As for beef and mutton, Wen Qian did not buy them in the wholesale market. If there was leftover money in the future, she would spend it on them then.
In the big wholesale market, Wen Qian also went to the dried goods area. Even though it was wholesale, the dried seafood was still not cheap. Anything related to the sea, she felt she could only afford seaweed.
So Wen Qian bought some dried seaweed. When the time comes, she can braise it and the taste should be pretty good.
Wen Qian didn't like mushrooms, so she didn't buy any.
There were also some dried fruits that Wen Qian planned to buy some of later.
Any fresh items she wanted to try, she would find time to buy later, because they were too scattered right now.
Everyone else was on vacation while she was working, and when she took time off, she was personally stocking up.
She felt like she had taken on a part-time purchasing job and was working overtime right now, exhausted to death.
But with the goods bought, her body was very tired but her heart was at ease. If she didn't buy them, then she would be worried.
If she really ended up not needing them in the end, Wen Qian figured she could open a grocery store.
Of course, if there was no disaster, Wen Qian's preparations would really be useless, which would also be a good thing.
Food preferences also existed. Stocking up of course meant choosing what she didn't dislike and also what she could afford.
As for those relatively expensive nuts, even more expensive sea cucumber and abalone, and things like cordyceps,
Wen Qian would just look at them. To be honest, these kinds of things, in peaceful and prosperous times she couldn't afford them, and if there really was a disaster, she knew she wouldn't be able to buy them ahead of time when stocking up, since she didn't have money.
She could only buy relatively cheap but plentiful goods to store away.
If after buying cheap goods she still had money left over, she would consider buying less to try some delicacies then.
It was a bit sad to say. Some people felt useless in peaceful times but thought they could accomplish something in chaotic times.
Wen Qian was very pessimistic - in modern society she lived an ordinary life, if she could live through natural disasters that would be a blessing already, not to mention living brilliantly, it was best not to think about that.Reead latest novels at novelhall.com
Just like now she came to the wholesale market but still couldn't afford those premium goods, if there really was a disaster, she felt that being able to eat her fill would be good enough, she didn't dare hope for anything else.
Some things couldn't be made from scratch, and making them would be very laborious, she made a note of these to buy online or get from the wholesale market later.
Seeing the snack section, Wen Qian thought, so much good looking chocolate and shiny candies, the puffed snacks on the shelves.
These would all cease being manufactured and produced later.
Thinking of this, Wen Qian wanted to buy some, but looking at the prices, she'd rather boil white sugar and water.
Reminding herself that it was various chemical additives that made food tasty, Wen Qian wanted to search what chemicals they were, still wanting to buy them.
So Wen Qian decided that later she would buy some puffable snacks to fry at home.
Just like the slices her grandma used to fry, fried in oil once and sprinkled with seasoning, it was very delicious.
Passing the cookware section, Wen Qian looked at the various bowls and dishes, recalling that her old home still had quite a few, although they had been used for a long time and were rather old-fashioned, she didn't need to buy new ones.
But she remembered now that disposable meal boxes needed buying, later she might make a lot of prepared dishes, portioning them out into boxes, to take out directly when needed.
And kitchen knives, she would buy those online, after all the supermarket goods were not cheap.
As for bedding, Wen Qian also chose to buy online, defective cotton homespun and similar products.
In the fruit section, Wen Qian thought that later she could directly buy wholesale from growers. As for some expensive fruits, she could just not eat them.
Seeing the milk powder area, Wen Qian thought of stocking milk powder, she could mix and drink it herself later, and also thought of soy milk.
A classmate's family ran a breakfast shop back then, they had to select soybeans and grind soybeans to cook soy milk every day.
When she was little, her family would go make tofu on the streets during New Year's, using their own soybeans. Watching others make it in the workshop, she could also drink a bowl of hot soy milk.
Wen Qian planned to buy more soybeans, and purchase tools.
As for the skincare section, Wen Qian glanced at it and already had plans.
Go to the official flagship store of an old domestic brand online, affordable and effective, Wen Qian felt she could use it from young till old.
As for the hundred-plus yuan or thousands of yuan ones, Wen Qian thought she wouldn't get to touch those in her lifetime.
Finally when leaving, Wen Qian bought two rows of half-priced yogurt.
