Chapter 1491: Major Purchases 4
Not only watches, all goods here are noticeably cheaper compared to outside.
The Overseas Chinese Store in Shanghai is the same, Feng Qingxue heard this from a classmate who came from Shanghai.
Given this, it’s likely the situation is similar across the country.
Feng Qingxue first bought two Shanghai-brand watches for Guan Cheng, one for men and one for women. It’s not that she didn’t want to buy imported ones, but wearing imported watches now carries certain risks. Spending 120 yuan plus 40 shopping coupons, she said, "In a little while, I’ll buy one for each of you brothers as well."
Buying several watches at once would certainly shock the salesperson.
Lu Tianzhi waved his hand. "We don’t need them; what are we going to do with those things anyway? When we can earn money, we’ll buy them ourselves."
"Exactly, Aunt, you don’t need to buy anything for my sister-in-law either. Leave it to my brother to handle later."
Feng Qingxue said, "Ever since your brother started working in the Capital, every month he would give me half of his salary and spend the other half on your sister-in-law. Apparently, her spending is quite modest, and most of the money is saved because she isn’t wasteful. Don’t worry, all the wedding items for him will be purchased with his own money."
Otherwise, how could she spend so freely?
It wasn’t just Guan Cheng like this; Lu Tianjun and Feng Qingyun, upon receiving their salaries, had always consistently handed over half their earnings to her. As their salary levels increased, the amount given to her also rose; annually, it was at least 200 yuan, sometimes even 300 to 400 yuan.
