Chapter 54: Department Stores

On the second day of the wedding, at seven o'clock in the morning, the "general" knocked on the door of Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan. The vertex update is the fastest, and when they see the "general" standing in front of their house with sleepy eyes, they all feel incredible, and even ask him what happened.

The "general" was embarrassed to see that they hadn't gotten up yet, and said it was okay.

Hong Yanwu grabbed the handle of the conversation, and said with a hippie smile, "You got up so early...... Is it okay? What about my sister-in-law......? Nice?"

"General" heard the meaning of the words, and his face turned red. "What's good or bad, look at what you say. Do we have to stay in bed to be normal?"

Hong Yanwu couldn't help laughing. "Eating and drinking, men and women, man's great desire. Normal people think it's wonderful, who is willing to leave the bed?"

"Isn't it wonderful, you'll know when your kid marries a wife. When the time comes, it's up to you to experience it yourself. ”

Not to mention, as soon as people get married, they seem to be able to become smarter. The "general" ridiculed Hong Yanwu and coped with it easily, and he didn't suffer at all.

But then again, he was also passive in waking up early today. The main reason is that Han Ying was embarrassed and afraid of jokes, so she pulled him up from the bed early and cleaned up the room. And the reason why he came to Hong Yanwu was because he had something to do.

It turned out that when the "general" and Han Ying finished washing up and had breakfast, Han Ying mentioned to him that he wanted to buy a radio.

In those days, most ordinary families, due to their limited economic ability, most of the marriages were purchased by choosing one or two things in the "three turns and one ring".

Han Ying is a very stable and capable girl, she knows that there are still a lot of places to use money to live outside, and industrial coupons are quite difficult to get, so she wants to follow suit, and she has no intention of completing all the "three turns and one ring" as Xiang Hong said. It's just that the kind of thing she chose is exactly what everyone thinks is the most unrealistic.

Of course, the "general" will not object, thinking that he has been in a hurry recently, and he has not bought a "big item" for Han Ying so far, he feels even more indebted. As soon as I figured out that the sewing machine was not needed for the time being, the bicycle brothers had already given it away, so they said that they would buy her another watch.

I don't want Han Ying to still insist on only buying radios. She said that solving the problem of mental entertainment is the most important thing for her, because if the "general" goes to the beach, she will definitely be bored and panicked. As for the rest. It's not in a hurry, just add the same in the future. Now she can't make up her mind, but she doesn't know what brand to buy.

The "general" is not good at this, and when he turned his mind, he remembered that Hong Yanwu was coming. It is said that the people in the capital have a lot of knowledge, and they must know which is good, so they came to the door.

Hong Yanwu was also happy. As soon as he heard this, he said to the "general", "After attending the wedding, it is time for the "sea bumpers" who live in the fishing village to go home today. Let's all go to the mall later. By the way, everyone will have another dinner at noon. As for the industrial vouchers, there is no need to worry, there are people in front of the store who secretly exchange them for sale, and this is how the bicycle thing is done. It's rare, but Han Ying is really a person who lives a life, not vain at all, you can be regarded as having it. ”

This arrangement is not only appropriate, but also touches the "itchy flesh" of the "general", which really makes the "general" feel beautiful in his heart.

In this way, at about 8 o'clock in the morning, the four people who lived in the "Victory Guest House" met up with other "sea bumpers" and went to Jinmen Street together.

Like Dashilar, Wangfujing, and Xidan in the capital, Bincheng also has its own well-known business circle, that is, this Jinmen Street.

There are various specialty shops, restaurants, cinemas, baths, and photo studios. What's more, there is also a comprehensive Ben Thanh department store. So if you want to buy the goods that match your heart in Ben Thanh, come here as the best choice.

Sure enough, the radio counter of the department store is the most complete place in Bencheng, unlike small shops with a single variety, and out of stock is the norm. At that time, there were basically brands from all over the world, such as "Huhai", "Feile", "Panda", "Red Light", "Peony", "Yangtze River", "Changfeng", "Yongmei", "Yingchun", "Friendship", "Seagull", "Haiyan" and "Jewel Flower".

However, this also increases the difficulty of selection, and both the "general" and Han Ying are guilty of "choice disorder", and they really don't know which one to choose. And in this era, it is all up to the salesperson to see the goods, and if the person who buys something wants to carefully compare and ask repeatedly, it will eat people's faces.

Fortunately, Hong Yanwu gave them a suggestion just right. According to him, when choosing a radio, the first thing to do is to have a clear reception and good quality. The second is to have more bands, and if there is a new radio station in the future, it will not be unreceiving. The last point is to be small, which is not only for easy portability and ease of use, but also to save battery. So those old-fashioned products like big piers don't need to be considered. His opinion is that, according to these three points, choose between the Huhai brand or the Nanjing "Panda", which is the best at electronic manufacturing.

Not to mention, this analysis not only made the "General" and Han Ying listen to it convincingly, but the other customers next to them nodded frequently, and even the salesman smiled, calling Hong Yanwu an expert.

In this way, the salesperson has a lot of attitude, and takes the initiative to show them a few light and small products.

Those radios were about the size of a magazine. It's certainly not comparable to today's electronics, but it was a refreshing masterpiece back then, and customers saw them in much the same way that people see new products from Apple today.

As soon as Han Ying saw the fine workmanship style of "Feile 729", she liked it, tried it, and the effect was quite good. So even though it's not a three-band and the price of 76 yuan is a bit more expensive than other brands, I still decided to buy it.

The most surprising thing was that Hong Yanwu had an idea, and actually proposed to everyone, saying that we should buy one to relieve boredom at the beach, and how about it?

So the final result was that Hong Yanwu and the "general" exchanged 152 yuan and Gangtao for ten industrial coupons and bought two radios.

In this era, the payment method of the mall is also quite unique. Don't look at the cash register, but you don't have to ask the customer to run to pay at all. After calculating the price and ticket, the sales staff at the counter will accept it directly.

The salesperson has a thick wire on the top of his head, which leads to the cash register, and on top of it is a small electric pulley with a number of iron clips hanging. When the salesperson finishes collecting the money, he clips the documents with an iron clip and slides along the wire to the counter.

Take it over there and settle the score. If there is change, slide it back together with the receipt. Customers don't have to move at all. This is even more > than swiping a card today

bought a radio that suited her heart, and Han Ying was already satisfied. But she didn't expect that because the "general" had asked Hong Yanwu's opinion, she was even more determined to buy her a watch, and she actually brought a lot of money without telling her before coming.

So he dragged her to the watch counter. Regardless of her opposition, I insisted on picking out a brand-new Swiss "Rome" brand mechanical women's watch, and in the blink of an eye, two hundred and thirty yuan, and fifteen industrial coupons were spent.

However, as soon as Han Ying wore this bright gadget on her wrist, it was definitely uplifting. Not only does it look like a **, I smile like a flower, but I also look more beautiful, the taste of happiness is obvious, and it is all revealed from my face without smelling.

Everyone coaxed this and naturally coaxed again, and they all said that the "general" loves his daughter-in-law so much, and he will definitely not talk at home in the future.

And while laughing and walking, it's time to go to dinner. But they were all leaving, just as the big guy was about to go downstairs, when he passed by the leather shoe counter, Hong Yanwu couldn't help but take care of a bit of idle business.

It's also a coincidence. What's going on?

It turned out that on this day, Bincheng Department Store imported a batch of leather shoes from "Huhai".

This is a pretty thing that you don't usually see. So on that day, the bourgeois ideology of the masses of the people began to flood again. The shoe and hat counter is crowded with people, and if you don't hold your legs and feet on the ground, the crowd can squeeze you in.

As a result, there was such a young man, who finally squeezed to the counter and fell in love with a pair of thin, pointy, crimson calfskin leather shoes. And also very lucky to catch the last pair that matched his number.

It's just a pity that just when he was about to pay for it, he found that the money was not enough. Twenty-seven leather shoes, he was two pieces short. And just as he hesitated and touched the money all over his body, a young man next to him actually snatched it from his hand.

Fortunately, the master took it and the shoes were not taken away. Then he said, "What are you doing?" I'm thinking about buying it. ”

Unexpectedly, the other party's eyes glared, and he said casually, "You kid has no money, what do you buy?"

This sentence can be regarded as the person who got the shoes first, and the anger "Teng" rushed to the brain. He said, "Do you understand civility and politeness? Is there a first-come-first-come-first-come-first-come?" No matter how anxious you are, you have to wait for me to put down my shoes!"

And this sentence just revealed the Beijing accent, and what I didn't expect was that the other party also heard it, and it became more arrogant because of it. As soon as he said hello, two more people suddenly jumped over, squeezed away the others together, and surrounded this young man from the capital.

The master said very arrogantly, "Yo, I'm still from the capital." But let me tell you, don't look at you people in the capital everywhere, but there is no such thing as you taking advantage of Bincheng. Don't say that you don't have any money today, even if you make up the money, these shoes are also mine! Damn it, Lao Tzu will destroy the prestige of your people in the capital, don't toast and don't eat and drink!"

The young man in the capital was not good at stubble, so he was in a hurry at that time. "Grandson, you dare to scold Mom! I'll whip you!" and then grabbed the other party's neck and collar regardless of it.

It's a pity that the other party is overwhelming, and the three of them moved together to hold him down. And just when he was about to suffer, Hong Yanwu, who had just paid attention to the situation here because of the Beijing accent, couldn't help but get involved in thinking of his fellow countrymen.

As soon as he got started, he pinched the wrist of the leader boy, and Chen Liquan also followed closely, and easily pressed the other two minions into obedience. Then Hong Yanwu threw two more yuan on the counter, and said to the young man righteously, "Dude, you don't lack two yuan, I'll add them to you!"

And the most unexpected thing is that the "general" actually knows each other, and he has beaten a few troublemakers in the past. He came over and scolded him for scolding his head and face!"

"I said, why are you so embarrassed? You scold people's mothers at every turn! The people of the capital are provoking you? The people of Bincheng will not be able to show off a few of you! Get out of here! If you want to be beaten, I will satisfy you at any time!"

As a result, those boys suddenly became wilted eggplants. begged grandpa to sue grandma, and apologized in shame. After being let go, he immediately ran away like a rat.

On the contrary, the young man in the capital was overjoyed, and took the newly bought leather shoes to thank Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan.

The people in the capital have a good face, and when they got out of the door of the department store, the young man gave a circle of cigarettes to everyone in the "sea bumpers". The grade is quite high, and it is actually the same grade as the "Peony" "Huhai" brand high-end cigarettes.

Hong Yanwu took a closer look at the young man's body, it was even more strange, Huhai brand watches, clothes and styles are also fashionable, if it weren't for a Beijing accent, it should be said that this young man is more like a Huhai person. And after inquiry, he learned that this young man grew up in the capital since he was a child, and there were people in his family who worked in Shanghai. He actually came to Bincheng to be a soldier, and today he came to the city to rest.

As a result, Hong Yanwu's emotions were swept away at that time. He didn't have the heart to talk any further, so he said that there was something urgent, hurriedly stepped on the cigarette, pulled the "general" and left.

Not only did he refuse the young man's invitation to go to the bank to withdraw money and invite them to drink, but he even refused to leave the young man's contact information. In the words of the capital, it is very faceless.

This made the young man stay in the local area with a stunned face, which was completely inexplicable. And after going away, the "general" and others couldn't help but wonder about Hong Yanwu's abnormality.

At this time, Hong Yanwu revealed the hatred in his bones. He told the group, "If you look at that outfit, you know it's expensive." Families who work in Shanghai can wear 'Huhai' watches, smoke 'Huhai' cigarettes, and not to mention that they are still soldiers, needless to say, they must be the children of cadres. I didn't expect to save people and save a wrongdoer! I finally ran into a fellow countryman, but he was this kind of goods! Seriously, in the capital, I want to see the disciples in the big courtyard, and I have to strip them all away in addition to beating them up! Not to mention helping them! Phew, bad luck!"
