202 [Xiaobai]
Bluestone Bridge, Flower and Bird Market.
"Run slower, run slower!" Lin Wanzi shouted as she chased through the crowd.
Xiao Doudou shook his two long braids and turned around and beckoned: "Mom, aunt, uncle, hurry up!"
This is the largest flower and bird market in Chengdu, with flowers and plants, cats and dogs, goldfish and thrushes. There is also an antique street near the Minshan Hotel next door, and these two places are a must-visit place for foreigners to visit Chengdu in the 90s.
As for the wide and narrow alleys of the pit, they are still basically in their original appearance, but they are also facing commercial development. In fact, the wide and narrow alleys are very common in the old Rongcheng, because other old streets were demolished, they were fortunately preserved here, and they were upgraded to the traditional cultural symbols of the whole city.
Xiao Doudou ran past several bird shops, squatted in front of the pet store, pointed to the puppy in the cage and said, "Mom, I want this poodle." ”
In the mid-90s, cats and dogs have become popular, but the breed is relatively simple. Teddy, Golden Retriever, Erha, these future hits, are still relatively rare, China's local Jingba belongs to the existence of dominating the pet market.
"How much?" asked Lin Wanzi.
The shopkeeper glanced at the clothes of several people, took a cigarette in his mouth and said, "5000." ”
This bamboo pole was knocked too hard, Lin Wanzi said angrily: "There is a bank over there, you go directly to grab it." ”
The shopkeeper lifted the lid of the cage, stroked the dog's head, and said, "See, the nose is wide and black, the eyes are big and black, the beard is so smooth, the ears are so good, and the fur is as white as snow." Now purebred ones are rare, and you can't buy them if you want to, but I'm a purebred, and 5,000 yuan is really not expensive. ”
Lin Wanzi said: "With another 5,000 yuan, I can buy a house in the suburbs." ”
The shopkeeper laughed: "Houses in the suburbs are everywhere, and purebred poodles are rare. ”
"It's too expensive. Lin Wanzi shook her head and said.
"You have a price. The owner said.
Lin Wanzi thought for a while: "Is it sold for 50 yuan?"
The shopkeeper immediately closed the lid of the cage, pointed to the other cage and said, "These are earth dogs, and 50 yuan can sell you ten." ”
Stir-fry dogs, stir-fry flowers, stir-fry buildings, stir-fry garlic, anything can be fried.
As early as more than 10 years ago, orchids were fried in Jichun City, and a pot of Junzi Orchid was sold for a high price of 150,000 yuan, while the salary of cadres at that time was only 65 yuan per month. Such a crazy price has caused many enterprises to embezzle public funds to invest in Junzilan, and the local government has to introduce a price limit policy to cool down. After two years of speculation, the bubble burst, the whole city's economy was chaotic, and the municipal government hurriedly set the Junzi Orchid as the city flower and called on the citizens: "Every household raises the Junzi Orchid, at least three or five plants should be planted, and if you don't plant the Junzi Orchid, you are ashamed to be a Jichun person!"
This is the government's bottom line, but no one cares about Junzilan.
In the same time period, the five-needle pine was fried in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and a pot of pine trees could be sold for a high price of 200,000 yuan.
This thing of Jingba was probably fried in the late 80s, and a purebred Jingba is as little as 35,000 or 350,000. At the craziest time, a female dog in the house gave off her cubs, and dozens of people outside the house lined up with money to buy it. By the mid-90s, although the bubble was punctured, the purebred ones could still sell for one or two thousand.
Lin Wanzi pursed her lips, pulled her daughter and said, "Let's go to the front and have a look." ”
Xiao Doudou was very obedient, and walked with his mother without crying or making trouble, but he turned back three times in one step, and his eyes were full of reluctance.
Song Weiyang walked to the door of the pet store and said with a smile: "1000 yuan, I can buy it with peace of mind." ”
"No, 5,000 yuan, not a penny less. The shopkeeper shook his head.
Song Weiyang said: "Brother, the poodle has been fired, which fool are you going to sell 5,000 yuan to? This dog is almost two months old, and in another two or three months, you won't be able to sell it if you want to." ”
The shopkeeper saw that he was knowledgeable, and immediately said: "3000, it can't be less, I used 2500 for purchases." ”
"2500 is restocked, are you stupid or am I stupid?" Song Weiyang said with a smile.
"1800, if you want to buy it, take it away, don't talk nonsense if you don't buy it. "The shopkeeper's temper is still a bit big.
Lin Wanzi had already led her daughter out of more than ten meters away, and when she turned around, she found that Song Weiyang was taking out money, so she immediately went back and said, "Xiao Song, don't be fooled, this dog dealer is all extortion." ”
The shopkeeper was happily counting the money and was too lazy to bother with this "slander".
Song Weiyang picked up the puppy and said, "It's okay, it's a purebred poodle." Come here, the puppy is yours now. ”
"Thank you, uncle. "Little Doudou is so happy.
Lin Wanzi still wanted to refuse, but Lin Zhuoyun smiled and said: "Sister, don't say it anymore, just take it as a meeting gift for your brother-in-law." ”
Lin Wanzi wanted to speak and stopped, thinking about Song Weiyang's identity and background, and finally accepted the "heavy gift".
Xiao Doudou held the dog in her arms, teasing her, and leaned towards Song Weiyang, she felt that this uncle was very kind.
I bought some dog leashes, dog food and other things, and everyone left the flower and bird market together, and before they knew it, they had come to the antique street. Old man Lin likes calligraphy and painting, simply like it, not for collection. According to Lin Zhuoyun's meaning, it is enough to buy a pair of modern works, and a few hundred yuan can make the old man happy.
Song Weiyang didn't understand any of this, and he didn't even think about picking up leaks in the antique street, so he pointed to a calligraphy work in the calligraphy and painting shop and said, "How much is this?"
"Genuine Qigong, 30,000. The shopkeeper said.
Song Weiyang said with a smile: "If you invite Qigong to write on the spot, you don't need 30,000 yuan, right? ”
“5000。 The shopkeeper said.
"Yes, I still buy the four treasures of the study, it's too cheap to buy fake calligraphy and paintings. "Song Weiyang feels so pitted.
Leaving with a set of pen, ink, paper and inkstone, the next thing is to go to the department store to buy clothes for Lin's mother, and the son-in-law must make up the gift for the first time.
Walking to the end of the antique street, Song Weiyang actually found a roadside bookstall, where ancient books and used books were sold together with new pirated books, and "China Can Say No" and "The Future Belongs to China" accounted for nearly one-third of the stalls.
"Is this book easy to sell?" Song Weiyang bent down and picked up a copy of "The Future Belongs to China".
"It's easy to sell, of course it's easy to sell, it can sell twenty or thirty copies a day," the stall owner said with a smile, "This book was written by Song Weiyang, a big boss in our Xikang Province." The richest man in Xikang is Liu Xianhe, the second richest man is Mu Zhong, and the third richest man is Song Weiyang. Young man, let me tell you, Song Weiyang's business know-how is in this book, as long as you read it through, you are guaranteed to make a fortune!"
Xiao Doudou pulled Song Weiyang's sleeve and said to the stall owner seriously: "My uncle is Song Weiyang." ”
"Are you Boss Song?" the stall owner actually took it seriously, and suddenly shouted, "Come and see, Song Weiyang bought my books, Song Weiyang came to my bookstall to buy books!"
Song Weiyang said with a smile: "If I were really Song Weiyang, I would definitely call the police to arrest you, and all you sold were pirated goods." ”
The passers-by next to him were watching the excitement, and when they heard this, they immediately burst into laughter.
Ma took a taxi and left, Xiaodoudou hugged the dog next to Song Weiyang and asked, "Uncle, did you write those books?"
"yes. Song Weiyang said.
"You're amazing!" said Doudou adoringly.
Lin Wanzi took the opportunity to educate her daughter: "So Doudou should also study hard, like his uncle, and strive to become a writer when he grows up." ”
Little Doudou said, "I want to be a scientist!"
"Haha, ambitious. Song Weiyang laughed and thought to himself: At your level of retaking high mathematics twice to get a graduation certificate, it is really hellish to be a scientist.
Xiao Doudou asked again: "Uncle, will you accompany me for the New Year?"
Lin Wanzi said: "Uncle still has something to do, so I can't accompany you." ”
"Oh," Doudou pouted, and added, "Uncle, would you like to name the puppy?"
Song Weiyang said: "This is your puppy, you should name it yourself." ”
"Then it's okay to call Xiaobai. Xiao Doudou said along the dog's hair.
"Nice name. Song Weiyang couldn't help laughing.
It's still the same incompetence in naming names, little flowers, little black, little white...... The pets at home are all small-handed.
