Chapter 735: Li Lijuan's bride price 2
He didn't know why Li Lijuan was embarrassed to open her mouth, asking for so much dowry with one mouth.
"Three turns and one ring", let alone marrying a countryman like Li Lijuan, even a girl in the city may not be able to get so much dowry.
Song Wenbing estimated that Li Lijuan had a bad brain, and she had no concept of "three turns and one ring".
Although he was depressed in his heart, Song Wenbing still coaxed Li Lijuan and said, "Lijuan, do you know, these three turns and one ring are not cheap, according to the most ordinary to buy, plus a piece of more than 500 yuan, although I am from the city, but my monthly salary is so much, I really can't get so much dowry, see if you can do it less, according to the general dowry requirements of your production team?" ”
Li Lijuan replied a little unhappily, "Brother Wenbing, our production team knows that I am going to marry in the city, you have to do it according to the general bride price specifications of our production team, and I must not be laughed at when I look back?"
Our production team generally requires a bride price, only 100 catties of food, you can add some to me, let me have face, not to mention that I have three turns and one ring, at least one of them must be prepared, and I want a new one, not the old one. ”
Song Wenbing listened to Li Lijuan's words and pondered in his heart.
I didn't expect that the bride price of the countrymen is so high that it costs 100 catties of grain.
Maybe for the countrymen, a hundred catties of grain is not much, the production team will distribute the grain every year, the family is provincial, there are so many people in the family, one person can save a hundred catties of grain if he eats a little.
But for the people in the city, it is very difficult to get a hundred catties of food.
There is only so much food supplied every month, and people in the city are not as frugal as people in the countryside, so it is too difficult to save 100 catties of food.
Song Wenbing has food stamps, but he can't make up enough for a hundred catties, and even if he has food stamps, it is still difficult to buy food from regular channels. It's like buying meat, it depends on luck, there is only so much supply every day, you don't have to buy it when others buy it, otherwise there wouldn't be so many people risking their lives to buy food from the black market.
If you give Li Lijuan enough for a dowry of 100 catties of grain, according to the price on the black market, it will be more expensive than buying a watch.
After all, it is better to buy a watch for Li Lijuan, not to mention that you can save more money, the main thing is that Li Lijuan is married, and the watch can be disposed of by him.
I have heard her sister say before that many colleagues around her have bought watches, and she also wants to buy one, but she is reluctant to pay.
If you buy a watch for Li Lijuan and transfer it to his sister in the future, it is better than giving the Zhao family grain.
In case he sent a hundred catties of grain to the Zhao family, and they didn't return the gift, he would not lose a lot.
had a plan in his heart, and in the end Song Wenbing decided that it was the most cost-effective to buy a watch for Li Lijuan.
Song Wenbing smiled and coaxed Li Lijuan and said, "Lijuan, look, you will also marry in the future and live with me, I will be good to you in the future, and I will definitely not treat you badly."
Let's get married, how about I buy you a watch if I don't give you food?
Give you food, in case your stepfather doesn't give you a dowry and doesn't return the gift, we won't have to lose?
I gave you a watch, and people don't want to buckle it, it's ours after all, what do you say? ”
Li Lijuan listened to Song Wenbing's words and felt that what Song Wenbing said was very reasonable.
