Chapter 198: Buying a Camera
Time flies in a hurry, in the blink of an eye, it is summer, the weather is getting hotter, and Zhai Ying has also ushered in the college entrance examination, in recent days, the family has become very nervous, and even Ye Lin can't speak loudly when he comes out and goes in every day.
Of course, this is stipulated by Li Ran, Ye Lin can't speak loudly, let alone Ye Qi, and for this, Li Ting hasn't come to the house for the past few days.
If it weren't for the conditions, it is estimated that Li Ran would have driven Ye Lin and Ye Qi out.
For this, Ye Lin scoffed, it's not that he hasn't taken the college entrance examination, the more this time, the more he should relax, of course, the era may be different, and the ways and methods are different.
You must know that not only Ye Lin has participated in the college entrance examination, but Li Ran has also participated in it, so his experience cannot be used on Zhai Ying, although Zhai Ying is also a genius, but Zhai Ying does not have the ability to forget.
"Mom, are you a little too nervous?" Ye Lin said to his mother with a wry smile.
"What do you know, these few days are the most important days, and this is related to Zhai Ying's life. Li Ran glared at Ye Lin.
Hearing his mother describe it as a lifetime, Ye Lin's head suddenly became big, and he couldn't understand it, could it be that being admitted to college can make people happy for a lifetime, and if he was not admitted to college, he would have to suffer for the rest of his life.
"Mom, you're a little too much, according to my experience in school exams for so many years, the more this time, the more you should relax and not be too tight. ”
"Your experience? Your experience is to give me a big zero every time. ”
"Uh!" Ye Lin said with a black line on his head.
"Mom, we don't bring personal attacks. ”
"Alright, what should you do, don't stay at home. ”
"Oh well. Ye Lin said weakly.
There was no way for him, Ye Lin felt that his mother had been a little stunned in the past two days, not only asked for leave from the school, but also stayed by Zhai Ying's side all day and night, answering Zhai Ying's questions at any time.
However, before going out, Ye Lin gave Zhai Ying a look.
"Auntie, I still have to buy a reference book. ”
"Son, wait a minute. ”
As soon as Ye Lin walked outside the door, he was called by Li Ran.
"Mom, what's the matter?"
"You accompany Xiaoying to buy a reference book, pay attention to safety on the way, go and come back quickly. ”
"Understood. ”
Li Ran heard Ye Lin agree, so he turned around and said to Zhai Ying: "Go ahead, buy whatever books you want, anyway, he has money, it's better to buy more, don't run back and forth, these few days are the most important time." ”
"Knowing Auntie, I'll be back soon. ”
"Well, go ahead. ”
"Hahahahaha. ”
"Hahaha. ”
When the two of them came to the outside of the courtyard, they were about to laugh, and after laughing, Zhai Ying said to Ye Lin: "Ye Lin, isn't this okay?"
"What's wrong, the school gives you a few days off, just to let you have a good rest, and then take the college entrance examination, my mother is good, and I won't let you rest when I come back. ”
"But ......"
"There's nothing to do, in this way, wherever you want to go, I'll take you there today. ”
"I don't have much to go to!"
"Uh, how could there be no place to go?"
Ye Lin looked at Zhai Ying and asked, Zhai Ying has been in the city for several years, except for Ye Qi and Li Ting who have been to the department store, they have never been to other places, how can there be no place they want to go.
"There really isn't, besides, I'm not familiar with the imperial capital. ”
"Uh!" Ye Lin patted his head.
How did I forget this, the reason why I didn't want to go was because I didn't know where to go, and since I didn't know, of course I didn't want to go anywhere.
"In this way, you will follow me today, and you will go wherever I go. ”
"Well, I listen to you. Zhai Ying nodded.
"Let's go. ”
Ye Lin took Zhai Ying to the bus station, today is to go out to play, so he didn't ride, when playing, it's better not to ride, because it's more troublesome to put a bicycle, it's better to take a car.
It's more fun to play like this, otherwise you won't be able to play well while worrying about the bike.
Ye Lin didn't take Zhai Ying to Beihai Park, Zhai Ying had been to that place, and there was nothing fun about it, today Ye Lin wanted to take Zhai Ying to the Old Summer Palace, no way, there was not enough time, otherwise he was going to take Zhai Ying to Badaling.
The Old Summer Palace is located in the northwest suburbs of the imperial capital, adjacent to the Summer Palace, and consists of the Old Summer Palace, the Changchun Garden and the Wanchun Garden, also known as the Three Yuan Ming Palaces.
The Old Summer Palace is one of the famous royal gardens of the Qing Dynasty, covering an area of more than 5,200 acres and more than 150 scenes. With a construction area of 160,000 square meters, it is known as the "Garden of Ten Thousand Gardens". The royal family of the Qing Dynasty would come here to manage the government in the middle of summer, so the Old Summer Palace was also called the "summer palace".
The Old Summer Palace was founded in 1709 (the 48th year of Kangxi), which was given by Kangxi to Yongzheng, who had not yet ascended the throne, to pass the time.
After Yongzheng ascended the throne in 1722, he expanded the original garden, and added the Zhengda Guangming Hall and the Qinzheng Hall in the south of the garden, as well as the cabinet, the six ministries, and the military aircraft department to store the value room, so as to "avoid noise and listen to politics".
During the Qianlong period, the Old Summer Palace was partially added and reconstructed, and the Changchun Garden was newly built in the east, and the Wanchun Garden was incorporated into the southeast neighborhood, and the pattern of the three Yuan Ming Gardens was basically formed.
During the Jiaqing period, Qichun Garden was repaired and expanded, and became one of the main garden places.
During the Daoguang period, the national strength was declining, the financial resources were insufficient, and the Daoguang Emperor preferred to remove the furnishings of the "three mountains" of Wanshou, Xiangshan and Yuquan, and take refuge in the summer and Mulan to hunt, but still rebuilt the three gardens of the Old Ming Dynasty.
The Old Summer Palace was burned down by the British and French forces in 1860, and the number of looted cultural relics is roughly estimated to be about 1.5 million, ranging from bronze ritual vessels of the pre-Qin era to famous calligraphy and paintings of the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, as well as various rare treasures.
In 1900, the Eight-Nation Coalition invaded and occupied the imperial capital, and the royal gardens in the western suburbs were again destroyed. During the Anti-Japanese War, it was damaged to varying degrees.
After the burning of the Old Summer Palace, the ruins began to be protected after the founding of the People's Republic of China, and in 1956, the Imperial Capital Garden Bureau began to take tree planting and protection measures, and now a lot has been restored.
However, Ye Lin did not go directly, but went to the department store first, the reason why he came here was because Ye Lin wanted to buy a camera, this thing is a rare thing, although the department store sells it, but the price.
When the two of them got off the bus, Zhai Ying glanced at the place and asked, "Ye Lin, why did we come to the department store again?"
"Come here to buy something first, and then go out to play, and don't forget that we're going out for a day, so we can't go without food." ”
"That's it!"
"Here you go. Ye Lin handed Zhai Ying a few tickets for great unity and some votes.
"Ye Lin, you are ......"
"You go buy food, I'll buy something else, and we'll meet at the door in a moment." ”
"Hmm. Zhai Ying took the money and followed Ye Lin into the department store.
When I went into the department store, it was a place to sell food, and the entire first floor was either to buy food or sell some small things, and the place where Ye Lin was going was not here, so the two of them separated.
Cameras are valuables on the second floor of a department store, where bicycles, sewing machines, radios, watches, cameras, gold and silver jewelry, and other valuables are sold.
"Auntie, help me get a camera and I'll take a look. Coming to the place where the camera was sold, Ye Lin said to the salesperson.
"Kid, you can't touch this. ”
"Why?"
"Children, this is a valuable object, and it cannot be touched. ”
The reason why the salesman spoke to Ye Lin in a friendly voice was because Ye Lin was not an ordinary person when he was dressed, the salesman's eyes were thieves, and all the valuables were sold here.
So the people he received could be said to be big shots, and although she hadn't seen the badge on Ye Lin's chest, she knew it was not ordinary at a glance.
Otherwise, people would have driven him away a long time ago, how could they talk to him, what kind of jokes, a camera costs thousands of dollars, can a child afford it?
"I buy it. ”
"Uh!" The salesman was stunned for a moment, but still looked at Ye Lin and said, "Little friend, this is not a toy." ”
"You're a man. Ye Lin didn't talk nonsense, took out the money directly from his schoolbag, and also took a few industrial coupons and slapped them on the counter.
"That's enough. ”
"Ugh!" the salesperson was surprised this time.
In fact, Ye Lin didn't blame the salesman, if he was to blame, he was too young, if he was in his twenties, or in his thirties, the salesperson would never say that to him.
"Enough...... That's enough. ”
"Bring that one over and I'll take a look. ”
"Okay. ”
The salesman hurriedly took the camera that Ye Lin pointed to, this is a Shanghai 58II. camera, Ye Lin glanced at it and handed it to the salesman and said, "Take that one." ”
"Okay. ”
The salesman hurriedly handed over another one, Ye Lin took a look, it was a Shanghai 120 camera, this camera Ye Lin had heard of in later generations, it was the predecessor of the Seagull camera, it can be said that this camera is a classic.
The camera looks like a box, eighteen centimeters high, boxy at the bottom, around ten centimeters, and two lenses in front, one up and one down, one large and one small.
It looks very sturdy, that's right, Ye Lin can only use this word to describe it, there is absolutely no problem with this thing as a brick.
"How much does this cost?"
"Four thousand six. ”
"That's it, that's it. ”
"Oh, good. ”
The salesman doesn't know how shocked he is now, that's four thousand six, he can't earn so much after ten years of hard work.
I didn't expect a little child to take it out easily, and at the same time, I was glad in my heart, glad that I didn't offend Ye Lin just now, because this is definitely not a child from an ordinary family.
Four thousand six is just the price of the camera, and two hundred and thirty industrial coupons are needed, Ye Lin handed over the two bundles directly, picked up one bundle and counted thirty sheets and handed them to the salesman.
The salesman hurriedly took it and counted it, this can't be mistaken, one less is a big problem.
The salesman quickly counted the industrial coupons, raised his head and said to Ye Lin, "Just two hundred and thirty." ”
