Chapter 1314 Heidis Tailor Shop(2/2)
After he finished his work, Heidi had already passed through the wooden door under the stairs.
Through the crack of the door, he could clearly see that on the other side of the door was a small walled courtyard. In the courtyard, there seemed to be a young girl who was washing clothes.
"Bang!"
A brief draft brought the scent of soap from the courtyard into the tailor shop, and then the door was mercilessly closed.
Looking at the direction of the door, Wei Ran got into the fitting room, closed the canvas curtain, and took out the Rollei double-lens reflex camera from the metal book. Fortunately, this Rollei double-lens reflex camera had film loaded in it.
It undoubtedly made his photo taking job much easier.
I put away the camera and took out the gas mask bag from the USS Johnston for inspection. Fortunately, the lifebuoy used as a shoulder pad was still there, but the only contents in the bag were the MK43 telescope and the silver coin.
Make a sailor's whistle.
Although good things are missing, there are also two more keys in this empty bag - two door keys that are as long as cigarettes and have a retro style.
Weighing the two keys, which he didn't know where they came from, Wei Ran put them into his pocket after some thought, and then put away the gas mask bag.
Opening the curtain and walking through the shelves, Wei Ran rummaged around in the shoe repair tool box, then picked up a leather knife that looked harmless but was extremely sharp, wrapped it randomly in newspapers and put it together.
Put it in your pocket.
Opening the door to the crisp and melodious sound of wind chimes, Wei Ran stood at the door and looked around. This was a street that was not very spacious. The pedestrians on the road seemed to have relaxed and comfortable expressions as if they had not been affected by the war. He
I even saw a German soldier with the rank of lieutenant holding a woman wearing a windbreaker and stockings walking past the door while laughing and talking.
But under the seemingly calm situation, the ration tickets in the hands of the German soldiers, which can be called hooligans, as well as the women who succumbed to the ration tickets, and the men who only had one pocket on their bodies and still tried to be graceful, all hinted that this is
The occupied areas lost their freedom.
I looked emphatically at the shop across the street with the sign "Reynold's Grocery" but the door was locked, then turned around and looked at the "Heidi's Tailor Shop", which only had two floors.
Turning back to the store, Wei Ran did not try to open the wooden door leading to the yard under the stairs, but instead quickly climbed up the stairs to the second floor.
Compared with the first floor, the second floor only has a small living room, a single bedroom, and a bathroom.
Before he could decide whether to go to the bathroom to urinate, the wind chimes downstairs were also banged by the store door. Wei Ran also ran down quickly, stretched out his arms towards the German soldiers who entered, and asked enthusiastically
A different tone of "Hey! Have you eaten?"
The soldier immediately straightened his chest and responded with a magical look on his face. Then he felt in his pocket and took out a folded newspaper and several ration tickets and handed them to Wei Ran.
After taking the ration ticket and looking at it, Wei Ran opened the newspaper again and saw the word "12t" written on it. He immediately realized something and warmly greeted the other person to sit down on the sofa, and then quickly walked to the shelf.
After searching for a while, I took out a pair of ironed and crisp uniform pants and a uniform top and returned to the counter.
However, before he could fold the clothes, the German soldier took them directly and walked to the changing room behind the shelves in a familiar manner.
After a while, the soldier came back wearing washed clothes, threw the uniform he was carrying on the cabinet, and then pointed to the dirty marching boots on his feet.
"Please wait"
Wei Ran said, walked into the counter and handed the other party a casual note. Then he put the note with the same content on the pile of dirty uniforms, and then he greeted the other party to sit on the sofa again.
He sat down, then brought over the shoe polishing box, and helped him clean the pair of marching boots quite skillfully.
Seemingly satisfied with Wei Ran's service, the soldier handed Wei Ran an additional bread ration coupon and said thank you in German before opening the door and walking out of the store.
Watching the other party go away, Wei Ran immediately returned to the counter and fumbled for the uniform while folding clothes. Sure enough, he touched something in the pocket of his coat.
Picking out the contents, Wei Ran found that what was placed here was a palm-sized iron box.
Looking at the direction in which the soldier disappeared outside the door, Wei Ran opened the tin box as quickly as possible, but what made him dumbfounded was that in addition to condoms one after another, there were only a dozen condoms in the tin box.
I don’t know where I got 10 or 50 pound sterling, three two-mark silver coins and five 50 penny nickel coins, plus a stack of ration coupons for “unlimited drinking” in the occupied territories.
Without hesitation at all, Wei Ran took out a 10-face-value note from the pounds and put it into his pocket, closed the lid, rummaged through other pockets, and took a pen he found in his hand.
After opening the door, he looked around, then quickly chased after the soldier who had not gone far.
"Sir! Sir!"
Far away, Wei Ranbian shouted loudly. When the soldier turned around, he immediately ran over and shook the things in his hands.
Seeing this, the soldier subconsciously touched his pocket, and then patted his forehead. He walked a few steps forward to meet Wei Ran, and took the pen and tin box from his hand.
"Thanks!"
The soldier thanked him again in German, then carefully checked the pen, carefully put it into his coat pocket, then opened the iron box in front of Wei Ran, and casually pulled it out from inside.
Two ration coupons were pushed directly into Wei Ran's hands.
"Thank you for your generosity, sir!"
Wei Ran warmly thanked him in French and bowed, and waited until the other party closed the lid and put it in his pocket, then he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
After bidding farewell to the soldier again, Wei Ran turned around and walked towards the tailor shop. However, he was not happy or relaxed at all because he had just succeeded so easily.
