My mother was very puzzled by the fact that the old driver didn't understand the car. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhang Xingming said: "This car is not the same as our domestic car, it is automatic, there is no need to change gears, they have never seen it." ”

My mother laughed and said, "I thought the cars were all the same, what was the gear shift? Is it the iron rod on the driver's side breaking back and forth?" Zhang Xingming nodded and said: "Yes, it's just that play, it's called the gear lever, and we don't have it in the car, they were stupid when they got in the car, but it was fun." ”

"What's going on?"

"Automatic gear, that is, the machine automatically shifts, people only need to give oil on the line, give oil and go, stop without oil, studious, you and my dad will also drive tomorrow when you have time, and you will drive the whole car out for two years." ”

Mom shook her head and said, "Don't do it, how tiring it is to learn that play, how good it is to go out and play and sit with others." Zhang Xingming gave a thumbs up to his mother, his mother was wise, and it was really tiring to drive, especially for long distances, and he came back because of this.

While speaking, Mu Youde and the three came back, Wang Hai carried a bottle of XO in his hand, and said: "Fortunately, I went there, and I threw a bottle of wine in the car, but it was frozen, and if I didn't take it out, I was afraid that it would explode." "Put the wine on the kang table.

Mu Youde said: "I have to find a place to refuel somewhere, the place to run tomorrow is far away? Don't run out of fuel halfway, it's half a trip down." Zhang Xingming said: "I can't add it now, I will add it before I leave tomorrow, and the automatic transmission car is a fuel consumption point, and it's okay." "Driving in the snow in the winter takes a lot more fuel than usual, and I often have to run with a big throttle and small steps.

My mother picked up XO and looked at it, and asked, "What kind of wine is this, it's all foreign words?"

Zhang Xingming looked at the wine and said: "Remy Martin XO, French wine, it's not delicious at all, it's expensive, take it and prepare to give it away, let's open it in a while, you can taste it, anyway, I can't get used to this taste." ”

At this time, imported wines were already mainly cognac, that is, the sugar in the grapes was pumped out by scientific and technological means.

This is not very complex with the eating habits of Chinese, so there will be red wine and sprite drinking, in fact, it is to make up the sugar, and it feels smooth.

Some of China's own wineries don't care what is going on, they spend a lot of money to learn from others, and they also make cognac, but they can't sell it to others, and they don't understand what's going on, and they feel that they are really inferior to others.

But this is also normal, in that era, the universal view of the Chinese people was that foreign countries were more advanced than ours, so there were often jokes about exchanging gold for white iron, and I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. For example, the technology of the father of rice was given to others for free, and the result was .......

……

Mom asked, "How much does this bottle cost?"

Zhang Xingming thought for a while and said, "It should be a few hundred in China at this time, and Xianggang is cheap." ”

My mother sighed a few times and said, "Just this bottle of water, why are foreign things so expensive?" ”

Zhang Xingming smiled and said: "Foreign things come into China to collect taxes, tariffs, just like cars, if other countries' cars want to enter our country, such as his car is worth 100,000, the national tax will be 450,000, plus the cost of transportation personnel or something, when it is sold, the people will buy it for 780,001 million, and our things will be taxed when they go out to foreign countries, which is a way to protect domestic enterprises, and the tariffs will be lower in the future." ”

"Then does the state collect taxes on those things that we sell?" My mother immediately thought of her own small shop.

"If you accept it, how can you not collect it, but it is less than the normal tariff, our family is a Hong Kong businessman, and there is a bit of treatment." Zhang Xingming replied.

My mother put the wine on the table and wiped her hands, and when she entered the room, the outer wall of the bottle was full of water, and said, "That's okay, your passport is still a little useful." Zhang Xingming rolled his eyes, it's a little useful, it's very useful, but it's really useless to call it with her mother, she likes to say it, pick up the wine and put it on the heater, let it melt faster.

The three sisters of the family were going back, so they came over to say hello to their mother, and the younger brother ran over and hugged her mother's thighs and coquettishly said: "Mom, I'm hungry, Mom, I'm hungry, you touch it, and my stomach is deflated." ”

The old mother picked up the little brother and kissed it, and said, "Oh, the old son is hungry, go, go and scold the old turtle calf, how can you cook so slowly, it will make my old son hungry." "I took my brother and went to the kitchen.

It is said that Zhang Xingming and his elder brother have not been coquettish since they were children, but the younger brother, who was in his thirties in his last life, saw that his mother still had to hug each other and kiss a few mouthfuls, Zhang Xingming looked numb.

After a while, my mother came over to call for dinner, Zhang Xingming let Mu Youde and the three of them go to the kitchen, and the eight people sat down to eat, Wang Hai saw that the table was full of beef and mutton, glanced at Zhang Xingming gratefully, and said to his father: "Big brother, you are tired, I am very troublesome." ”

Dad smiled and said, "It's nothing, my family also loves to eat beef and mutton, don't be polite to eat, you're all full, I'm not very good at cooking, don't pick if it's delicious or not." ”

A few people humbly gave in, moved their chopsticks to eat, and the old brother said while stuffing meat into his mouth: "The beef is so hard." Zhang Xingming glanced at his brother and said helplessly: "You eat mutton, you can't stuff it in your mouth." ”

Everyone laughed, in addition to the meat that must be oiled to be starched and hung in the warehouse, the meat in the Northeast is directly put into the pot, so the meat in the Northeast cuisine tastes a little hard, unlike the south, which also has to catch the pulp for stir-fried small vegetables, and it tastes very tender.

After eating for a while, Zhang Xingming ran into the house and took the wine off the heater, took it to the kitchen, took out a corkscrew from the cabinet, opened the wine, and said, "Come, try this famous French wine." ”

Dad got up and brought a few small bowls over, Zhang Xingming poured half a bowl for his mother and father, poured three full bowls for Mu Youde, and poured a small half bowl for his brother, and his younger brother argued: "I want it too." Zhang Xingming looked at his little brother, poured him a small sip, and said, "This is wine, not soda, I got drunk after drinking." ”

Everyone picked up the wine and put it under their noses to smell it, and my mother said, "It smells pretty good, don't wash your nose." "Anyway, cognac like XO smells really good, and the foreigner's alcohol is all about the taste.

Dad also smelled it, took a sip slowly, frowned, and said, "It smells very good, it's too hard to drink, forget it, I can't drink this play." "Put the bowl aside and stop drinking. Zhang Xingming smiled and said, "Dad, you won't enjoy it, rich people like to drink this foreign wine, it's a symbol of identity." ”

Mom is better than Dad, drank half a bowl of wine, and said, "The first sip is unpleasant, and the back is okay, but it's still not delicious, don't come back with this play in the future, give it away." ”

Zhang Xingming pointed out: "This foreign bar, especially this wine, get a taste, know what is called a taste? is to shake slowly, smell gently, suck little by little, it is not so difficult to drink, Chinese are not used to drinking foreign wine, mainly we Chinese pay attention to a large bowl of drinking, pour a bowl into it, but it is not right to drink foreign wine like this, mom you and dad should often drink this wine, you are all fat, this wine is okay to drink some can lower blood pressure and blood lipids and soften blood vessels, it is also useful to protect the skin, people call this beauty wine." ”

My mother said, "Really, then I'll drink some more, and pour me some more." Zhang Xingming laughed, took the wine bottle and poured half a bowl for his mother, and said: "I didn't feel anything before drinking this wine, but I have a lot of stamina, don't get drunk, Mom." ”

Mom's alcohol is much stronger than Dad's, seeing this dad drank that sip, his face was already red, Zhang Xingming remembered that Dad's best experience was to go to someone else's house to give a salute, drinking liquor at the same table, he was drunk when he smelled it on the side, and was helped home.

Full of wine and food, my mother took my little brother to go to my grandmother's house, my brother went to the house to do homework, Zhang Xingming asked Mu Youde to go into the house to watch TV, he helped his father collect the table, wash the dishes and wipe the table, Mu Youde sighed, and said to Wang Hai and Li Sangui: "Look, this is a billionaire, more diligent than us." ”

Wang Hai said: "I don't know if I'm tired and I can't see that this family is so rich, if I want to say that life has to be like this, this is the life of people, those I saw before are a little unable to live." The three of them nodded together, and Mu Youde said: "I plan to resign when I go back, come and drive for Boss Zhang, follow him comfortably, and the car is also comfortable, hehe." ”
