Jiang Che didn't worry too much about Zheng Xinfeng's qigong fanaticism because of his character of "fishing for three days and drying nets for two days", now that the matter is solved and his friend is back, he will slowly relax himself.

The two of them squatted on the streets of Linzhou, which were dominated by gray tones in this era, each holding a large stack of high school textbooks in their hands.

The book was old, and it was picked up at the scrap yard, but the former owner was very attentive, and even the book cover of the bag was just a raw edge, plus the handwriting inside was beautiful and clear, Jiang Che was very satisfied.

The soft and delicate dust on the side of the road was raised, Zheng Xinfeng squinted his eyes and said with a bitter face: "If you buy books, you can buy books, we have walked a few streets here, and you don't say what you are reading." ”

"Even I don't know what I'm looking at, so I'm just looking at it. ”

Jiang Che was actually depressed, if he left Linzhou in August as planned to report to Nanguan Province to teach, then his time for the rest would be really tight.

There are only five months left, and many industries can't get in, and the money is probably not enough.

There are many projects that can make money in 92, and at first glance they are everywhere, but there are not many systems, excluding those that Jiang Che can't participate in for the time being, and it is difficult to meet the requirements.

He wants this income to be stable and stable, and it can't be less. Preferably, this industrial investment is not only a money printing machine, which continues to generate funds, but also benefits the future development.

By the way, he himself was not there this year.

Listing these requirements, even Jiang Che himself felt that it was a fool's dream, of course, he didn't have to be like this, in his previous life and this life, he was used to seeing the world unsatisfactory, and he knew how to retreat to the second.

After watching it all the way today, he didn't gain any inspiration, Jiang Che thought that Zheng Xinfeng was really hard to be dragged to accompany him, so he asked: "If the decision is up to you now, what do you want to do?"

"Then I'm going to go to the arcade, I'm going to play that new machine, Street Fighter...... Adu gives ...... Hauhugen. Zheng Xinfeng gestured, his eyebrows fluttered, and he said with a bitter face, "But I can't wait for it now, and I like those two can't wait." ”

"Are there very few game halls in Linzhou now?" Jiang Che asked, putting the book together, standing up.

"It's like you've never been with me.,Just a few.,The games are pretty much the same.,Every time you want to play a favorite machine.,The soles of your shoes are about to go away.,You have to wait for a long time.。 Zheng Xinfeng looked disdainful.

At first glance, it sounds okay, and it has indeed been popular in memory, so popular that it can be included in the category of the mark of the times...... Also, it's not in its prime yet, is it?

"Why don't you play The King of Fighters?" Jiang Che remembered that the most famous was the King of Fighters.

"What...... The King of Fighters?" Zheng Xinfeng shook his head, indicating that he had not heard of it.

It seems that it is, the King of Fighters has not come out yet, so it proves that it is far from the decline period, Jiang Che bumped into him and said: "Let's go, put the books in the restaurant and come back to get them for dinner in the evening, let's go to the game hall." ”

"I really want to go, but I really can't wait for the opportunity. ”

"Then just take a look. ”

Jiang Che wasn't going to play in the first place, he was born as a good child, he wasn't keen on the game hall when he was a student, he didn't know much, and now after so many years, he lacks memory.

He decided to go and see it on the spot.

Zheng Xinfeng thought for a while and said: "It's okay, I will definitely be able to play anyway, and when those children can't beat them, they will take over, and they will generally not return it...... It's like this, I can't grab a good machine, those children can't grab a good opportunity, and I can't grab the person who can grab it......"

Jiang Che complained: "If you dare to love, you dare to rob the child?"

Lao Zheng said shamelessly: "But no, I just rubbed two handfuls, some people still robbed coins, and those children didn't even dare to sue their parents." ”

Those who grab the machine, those who grab the coins......

Jiang Che began to have a little memory, he had a sense of rejection of the game hall because he always heard about these things, "It turns out that these are the goods, but this is not good for business, right?"

The two took a bus, got off the bus and walked for almost twenty minutes before Zheng Xinfeng took Jiang Che to the first game hall.

The adobe house, the wooden façade, at a glance, there are almost a dozen machines, and there is not even a store name......

"Doesn't this business look good?" Jiang Che pointed and said, "There are only seven or eight machines, and even fewer people are watching." ”

"How is it possible? There is a new Street Fighter in this house", Zheng Xinfeng glanced at it, quickly turned around and patted Jiang Che on the back and said, "Let's go, change one." ”

"What's the matter, this old man came all the way. Jiang Che's eyes revealed doubts.

Zheng Xinfeng turned his head to look at it, then turned back and explained in a low voice: "You see those little hooligans, right? These gangs not only robbed machines, coins, but even money, and brought knives...... They squatted inside, and ordinary people didn't dare to come and play. ”

"Boss doesn't care?"

"It's okay, but this boss is a foreigner, and he doesn't have any backers, so he can't control this gang. ”

Jiang Che thought for a while, and then asked, "He doesn't take care of the public security?"

Zheng Xinfeng scratched his head, "Then I guess it must be wanted, but if you don't have a lot of money, it is estimated that it would be good if the public security didn't trouble you, and watch the scene for you?"

Zheng Xinfeng used a fresh expression brought by a Hong Kong film.

Jiang Che nodded in understanding, and just as he was about to leave, his eyes swept and he pointed to a middle-aged man in the corner of the wall who was holding on to a machine with his arms outstretched: "What's the situation with him? ”

"No, you came to me for nothing a few times before, right?" Zheng Xinfeng was a little depressed and anxious: "Gambling machine, this is the most profitable game hall, otherwise why would the boss do some public security? That guy ...... It is estimated that a lot of money has been invested, and I feel that it is about to come out, but I have no money to continue to invest, and I am afraid that I will be picked up by others, so I am unwilling to take advantage of it. ”

"Oh. Jiang Che sighed.

Public security, gangsters, gambling machines...... A bunch of troubles were listed, he basically didn't have any ideas, if Zheng Xinfeng didn't see that he couldn't play, he was addicted, and he dragged him to find another one, Jiang Che would have gone back on the spot.

The situation of the second house is different, it is a small dilapidated house, more than a dozen machines, and a long bench, which is extremely simple......

But this house is a little scary, there are not only children in it, but also adults, and there are also people in suits and leather bags......

There weren't many girls, but there were a few, and they were all with them.

In a small space, playing, watching, and directing, the noise level almost obscures the sound of the game.

Jiang Che turned around twice, stood down and looked at it carefully for a while.

Business is good, the boss is very busy, there are still young people who look like gangsters, it seems that most of them are sixteen or seventeen years old, and they haven't found out about robbing money or coins, and it is not uncommon to grab opportunities - including Zheng Xinfeng.

"Hey, eat that ammunition, don't eat this, are you stupid?" Zheng Xinfeng stood behind a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy and shouted loudly, "Come on, come on, I'll help you eat the ammunition and then return it to you, or you won't be able to pass this level." ”

As he spoke, he had already grasped the lever directly, and then, no more, he sat down.

The little boy stood on the side, watching, wanting to cry without tears, daring to be angry but not daring to speak......

It wasn't until the fighter on the display screen fell apart that Zheng Xinfeng stood up and said, "Look, I helped you play two levels." ”

Jiang Che couldn't laugh or cry when he watched from the sidelines.

Zheng Xinfeng thought that Jiang Che was laughing at his skills, and explained: "I don't like thunder and lightning, I'm not familiar with it, if it's a street fighter, I'll choose a small RB and play at least five levels...... I just can't wait for that machine right now. ”

Childish, but naïve is right, in this era, when I was a student, isn't this what I care about? From who can jump better than the band, to who has more marbles and more pictures, as for a certain arcade that can clear the customs, the students who know the cheats, it's a campus legend.

Jiang Che nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, next time, go back today, I'll invite you to dinner." ”

Picking out the three coins he had bought and not spending in his hand and handing them to the little boy, Jiang Che dragged Zheng Xinfeng, who was not yet enjoyable, out of the game hall.

Still bustling behind him, he glanced back.

"The arcade, well, the arcade counts as one. ”

Jiang Che decided to write down the alternatives, he now has some basic judgments, the game hall will be very popular in the past few years, and it can maintain its vitality for a certain period of time, but the first feeling of the problem: it is quite low-end.

A dilapidated and dilapidated small game hall, looking hot, how much can it earn?

If he wants to do it, it's not one or two, and it's not as simple as a goal of 10,000 or 20,000 a month, because otherwise, he will probably not have enough funds to chase those super investment opportunities that began in the mid-to-late 90s.

Moreover, the future direction of the game hall is a problem.

Also, can gambling machines be put down? What should be done with manpower? How many stores are opened, how many manpower are needed, and what kind of people can be suitable and assured?

Anyway, like my parents, I will never be able to watch the game hall.

Just thinking about it is a bunch of problems, and this plan has been denied ninety percent. It's just that Jiang Che still wrote it down in his notebook, waiting for the investigation to be perfected, or by chance.

92, 93, the market economy is crawling on the road, in fact, it is quite obscure, think about anything to make money, but it is not easy to clearly grasp a direction.

Jiang Che didn't dare to rely on the vague prophet Hulai, if he really wanted to do a project, he would first make a detailed plan and consider all aspects.

Since you are walking in the waves, it is better to be solid in your steps.
