Chapter 102: Blooming

Ning Weimin really didn't expect that before he got up in the morning, Zhang Shihui came to his house in a hurry.

You know, yesterday the two talked until three o'clock in the morning, when he rode his bicycle home.

Not to mention that the car was not put in the yard, and the others were sleeping deeply.

Okay, I only slept for five hours, and Zhang Shihui came through the window to "knock on the mountain and shake the tiger," "bang bang bang", and I knocked it up.

When he opened his eyes, Ning Weimin thought there was an earthquake.

He didn't expect that when he opened the curtains, what he saw was Zhang Shihui lying on the window and probing his brain.

Especially this kid has been smoked red by the banknotes, and when he opens the door, he is even more fierce like a bandit.

Completely ignoring his headache, he forced him to quickly put on his clothes and get the goods.

Of course, Ning Weimin listened to what Zhang Shihui said, but he could also understand this kid.

He knew that if this business could be completed, it would be of great significance to Zhang Shihui.

It can almost sweep away his recent bad luck, and it is necessary for him to rebuild his self-confidence.

Although the price is a bit low, the amount is really not small.

Overall, the profits are not a lot, and it is really worth doing.

So Ning Weimin didn't talk nonsense, and after washing, he dressed himself up carefully.

He put on a coat he had just bought, the cappling pants on his legs and the leather shoes on his feet, all of which were the outfits of the "second generation" at the beginning.

It wasn't until he felt satisfied that he took 500 yuan and pedaled to the Beijing Hotel with Zhang Shihui.

Why are you going?

Let's get a foreign exchange coupon.

Ning Weimin boasted yesterday that he had ready-made foreign exchange coupons in his hand, just to appease Zhang Shihui's heart.

Actually, where does he have it? I still have to catch it first.

As for Zhang Shihui, there was no doubt at all, this kid thought that he would go directly to the friendship store with Ning Weimin to buy something.

As a result, when he really arrived at the gate of the Beijing Hotel, he found that Ning Weimin took him to the wrong place, and it was too late.

In fact, he was dragged straight to the hotel by Ning Weimin.

The doubts expressed by the individual are quite weak, and only nervousness remains.

Because what the Beijing Hotel represents to the people of Beijing in this year is self-evident.

This is a reception place with a political status second only to the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse.

In the face of this tall, prestigious building, born with the sacred brilliance of gold letters on a red background.

Looking at foreigners, overseas Chinese, and Hong Kong tourists of all colors, when they enter and exit from the gate.

The self-confidence in Zhang Shihui's heart was all lost all of a sudden, which was more serious than the last time he visited Liu Weijing's wedding room.

There is a saying that best describes how he feels at this time, that is, the tendons in his legs and stomach.

And now, of course, it is Ning Weimin's turn to pull hard.

He completely ignored Zhang Shihui's self-shame and hesitation, and insisted on putting this kid in.

He also avoided answering Zhang Shihui's inquiry, and only said, "Will you come with me?" But how long to wait, I can't guarantee ......"

So how else can Zhang Shihui choose?

Fortunately, 1979 and 1980 were completely epoch-making differences, and just this year, the Beijing Hotel just canceled the requirement that the doorman need to check the documents of the Chinese people.

Even if Ning Weimin is holding Zhang Shihui, whose face is like earth, no matter how you look at it, she looks like a suspicious person.

But the doorman ignored it as well.

Maybe in the past year, the doorman has been surprised by this, and such abnormality is normal.

In short, when I walked into the hotel lobby smoothly and safely, I found that I was not hindered in any way.

Zhang Shihui finally wiped the fine sweat from her forehead and breathed a sigh of relief.

It's a pity that this peace of mind didn't last a while, and he was nervous again.

Dare to feel that his feet stepped on the carpet for the first time, and the feeling of being soft and thick made him not know how to step his legs.

To make matters worse, he was dizzy from the bright lights that filled the hall.

No way, the premier high-end hotel in Beijing is too luxurious.

This modern, luxurious environment and the level far beyond the Chongwenmen Hotel have a great visual impact on children growing up in the hutongs of Beijing.

Zhang Shihui felt like walking into a dream, feeling that this was not a republic, and she felt that she was out of place with her surroundings.

Wait until he and Ning Weimin sit in the café of the hotel.

Looking at the steaming tea in front of him, the shiny little silver spoon and the milk tank, he was still confused for a while.

Zhang Shihui even pinched herself, relying on the pain to prove the truth of all this.

Of course, the most frightening thing is the level of consumption here.

When he knew the price of the pot of English black tea in front of him, it was actually priced at four yuan.

He almost cried out in surprise.

Because that's five catties of pork, it's enough to have wine and meat in a small restaurant, and it's a big meal.

But from this time on, the rest of the matter began to go completely smoothly.

Perhaps it was the quiet and comfortable environment here that had an effect, although this kind of sweet tea, which had to be mixed with milk, made Zhang Shihui extremely uncomfortable.

Sitting on such a comfortable sofa seat and taking a sip of this expensive thing really feels different from making a cup of high foam by yourself.

It was as if he had become noble from head to toe.

Even if you pretend to be a gesture for the sake of others, you can make people compulsorily become stable and in line with the environment.

What's even more fortunate is that although there are few people here in the morning and it is still a working time, the use of time by foreigners is different from that of Chinese people.

They didn't sit down for a while, and then a blonde man and a woman came to the café.

As soon as the coffee that these two foreigners asked for was served, Ning Weimin was like a hunter who had been waiting for a long time and finally seized the opportunity, and he dispatched without hesitation.

At this time, Zhang Shihui watched Ning Weimin walk over generously, and actually dragged the "bird language".

And it's quite fluent, and I didn't stumble much.

Without saying a word, Ning Weimin was easily welcomed by the two foreigners and sat down beside them.

It looks like acquaintances who know each other, which is especially natural.

The waiters in the café didn't even glance at it, not noticing anything unusual here.

Then it didn't take much trouble, just after Ning Weimin took out the money in his pocket.

The foreign man nodded, took out his wallet and began to count the tickets.

In this way, Zhang Shihui saw with his own eyes how Ning Weimin easily obtained a 250 yuan foreign exchange coupon with English.

The exchange ratio is one to one.

Indeed, he is a fool, but he has this colorful magic currency in his hand, which he has never seen with his own eyes.

Zhang Shihui not only didn't feel that Ning Weimin was stupid at all, but her heart was full of excitement, and she was full of admiration.

is really to treat Ning Weimin as an idol.

Cow man!

There is strategy, insight, and learning.

If you move your mouth, you can get something that others dream of, and this ability is too big.

In ancient times, this was the master who made people bow their heads and worship the "lord".

How could he not follow him to the death?

But this is not the end, when he left the Beijing Hotel for a while, Ning Weimin took Zhang Shihui to the Friendship Store to buy something, which really opened Zhang Shihui's eyes.

Because first of all, the Friendship Store is more tightly controlled than the Jingcheng Hotel.

This is the first foreign-related store in China that was transformed from the famous "No. 34 Supply Department".

As a foreign-related venue specializing in providing services for resident foreign guests and tourism groups in China, it is still meticulously checking the qualifications of people entering and leaving here.

When Zhang Shihui was stopped, she was really startled, thinking that a good thing was going to be in the soup.

Thanks to Ning Weimin, who had a foreign exchange coupon in his hand, he said a few good words to the doorman, and took out the coupon and lit it up before he was able to enter.

From this, we can see what the quality of the foreign exchange coupon marked "equivalent to the RMB" is.

That's not just money, it's also a special pass.

It's not an exaggeration to say that this thing is the best currency.

Secondly, after he really waited until he entered, Zhang Shihui found that there were too many good things in the friendship store, and he was immediately dazzled.

Inside, you can buy the most fashionable clothes, shoes, cosmetics, and even various home appliances, Marlboro cigarettes, Swiss watches and other imported goods.

No tickets are required, only foreign exchange coupons are accepted.

For example, imported large color TVs and refrigerators are definitely in short supply.

In ordinary shopping malls, it is a good thing that can make people break their heads and squeeze desperately.

But in the Friendship Store, it's lined up, and you can choose whatever you want.

This momentum doesn't make people dizzy.

For another example, in the food building, there are more than 1,000 kinds of famous and high-quality products from all over the country.

There are countless kinds of pastries, breads, biscuits, wine, tea, meat, aquatic products, fruits, and fresh vegetables.

You know, how can a bitter child who grew up in the republic ever see so much food?

In addition to the southern fruits that she had poured, Zhang Shihui also saw many more exotic fruits and vegetables.

He really thought he had entered the Garden of Eden in Western mythology.

And in the cigarettes, in addition to the China and Friendship they want to buy, there are also Sanwu and Marlboro.

In the liquor, in addition to famous liquors such as Moutai, Wuliangye, Fenjiu, etc., there are also many such as Black Recipe and Remy Martin foreign wine.

It was even found that foreign liquor was produced in China.

For example, whiskey, rum, and Osk from Beijing, and brandy from Shandong and Northeast China are on the list, and I don't know what it tastes like.

But the most shocking thing is that the things here are cheaper.

Moutai eight pieces, Wuliangye five pieces eight, Fenjiu three pieces four......

Chinese tobacco nine cents, friendship seven cents five, peony five cents......

Hey, eight bottles of Moutai liquor, eight Chinese cigarettes, the goods they want to do are returned to the pile, and one hundred and thirty-five foreign exchange coupons are bought.

Counting the cost of the exchange rate and the cost of consumption, the total is only 152 yuan and 5 yuan.

Subtract this number from the full amount of two hundred and four and you will be the profit.

In just half a day, I made a net profit of eighty-seven yuan and five.

Easy, too easy!

Zhang Shihui silently pulled the abacus beads in her heart, and she was full of happiness on the spot.

The moment he got these things, his mood was simply bright and dark compared to yesterday, and it became a world of difference.

He suddenly felt like a blooming red flower, and life was so colorful that it was like a beautiful folk song.

I really want to howl like that right away.

"The flowering of Shandandan is red and bright ......"
