Showing off his talent or works in front of guests has become a reserved program in Hong Tao's home. As long as his father has a new guest, he must come once, and his mother has to come once when he has a guest, so when Hong Tao is usually fine, he deliberately memorized some Tang poems and Song Ci, and then wrote some hard pen calligraphy, painted some gouache or something, so as to cope with this kind of entertainment.

"Auntie, can you talk to grandpa, just say that your unit has a batch of old bricks, wood, and ask him if he will build a room for his uncle?"

"Build a house, why build a house again! How old is Xiao Ming, just prepare the house?" the eldest aunt made Hong Tao confused.

"It's not specifically for him, your old bricks, old wood or something can't be a little more, and the result is a waste, build the house a little bigger, I don't have a place to put these things, the old pile in grandpa's house, this taste is not very good, and it also affects grandpa's rest, what do you say?" Hong Tao said his true intentions.

"That's right, Cheng, I'll come back in the evening, settle this matter, and by the way, dismantle the small kitchen, rebuild it, and build one more room with it, and the neighbors in the yard can't say anything, anyway, we don't occupy the space in the yard, just build the courtyard wall outside, what do you say?" The eldest aunt understood what Hong Tao meant, this was to find a warehouse and operation room for himself under the guise of building a house for his brother-in-law.

"Yes, this is a good idea, you can quote the wages and material money cheaper, as soon as you say it, let my grandfather be tempted, if you don't cover the kind of good things next time, you won't be able to find this kind of good thing, and it's not enough to deduct it from the bicycle money." Hong Tao felt that his aunt was more thoughtful than himself in this regard, and even calculated the reaction of the neighbors in the yard.

At this time, the situation of the miscellaneous courtyard is very complicated, generally more than ten households live in a courtyard is very ordinary, some yards are larger, and some yards are smaller. No matter how big or small, the space in the yard is limited, and if you build an extra house, it will definitely affect the interests of other residents in the yard.

In this way, there will be contradictions, and if the relationship is better, it can still be discussed, and if the relationship between the two families is not very good, there will definitely be no discussion, and once the trouble is brought to the Revolutionary Committee, this house will not be easy to build.

Another reason is human nature, envy, jealousy and hatred are human nature, before 76 years, everyone lived in a house divided by the state, and no one thought of building an extra room in their own home. But now that someone has started this, there will definitely be a problem that your house has built two, and my house should have one, or even one has not been built.

The ancients said: Don't suffer from widowhood but suffer from unevenness!

Once you have more families and less of mine, you will be envious and jealous at best, and hateful at worst. Once you are hated by the neighbors around you, then it will be difficult to build this house, and the Revolutionary Committee will also have to consider everyone's feelings.

As for why Hong Tao had to build a house in a hurry, first, he really needed a more confidential space, and second, he knew that in later generations, BJ had such a policy, that is, the houses built in the 6th and 7o years belonged to earthquake-proof sheds, which were allowed by the state to be built by themselves, and could be added to the blueprint of the housing management office. In this way, when the time of demolition, it is equivalent to several more rooms.

The housing prices of later generations must be clear that one or two small houses that look very inconspicuous now add up to only more than 3o square meters, and when it comes to demolition, they can be exchanged for at least one set of 2 bedrooms or even three bedrooms, or hundreds of thousands to hundreds of thousands or even millions of demolition money. So while there is still time, Hong Tao plans to use all the vacant land that can be used in his grandmother's house and his own house, and build as much as he can, and when he grows up, even if he doesn't do anything, he can guard several sets of demolition houses, and he can enter a well-off life in advance without worrying about food and drink.

The Spring Festival in 1979 was completely different from the previous two years, with a few catties of peanuts and melon seeds mixed with sugar on the people's dinner table, and a slight increase in meat and non-staple food. When Hong Tao was hospitalized, the Chinese government and the Japanese government signed the "Sino-Japanese Treaty of Friendship and Friendship" in BJ, and as early as February, China and Japan signed a long-term trade agreement between China and Japan, which means that China and Japan have entered a honeymoon period.

The honeymoon lasted for 5 or 6 years, during which a large amount of Japanese investment and loans poured into China, and at that time there was an organization called "Japanese Government Assistance to China (i.e. OffinettAssistance, referred to as ODA), which basically undertook most of Japan's low-interest, interest-free long-term loans to China, and in the 2O years after 79 years, about 3.2 trillion yen (about 3oo US dollars) was released to China.

This money did play a great role in promoting China's reform and opening up, in the 8th and 9o years, you can hardly find the shadow of a big project without a yen loan, if China at that time was a huge size but the boiler has not yet heated up the giant ship, then the yen loan is the accelerant of the giant ship, it makes the boiler burn quickly, and provides enough power for the giant ship to start moving forward.

However, what is interesting is that China and Japan, two countries that were still a pair of enemies more than 2o years ago, suddenly made a 18o degree turn, and there was no special reaction from the people and officials of the two countries. There was no strong opposition in Japan, and there was no strong opposition in China, and it seemed that everyone had suddenly forgiven each other.

At that time, Japan's "Yomiuri Shimbun" wrote an article declaring: I do not ask the Chinese to thank it, but only hope that the Chinese will remember. China's state media generally responded with headlines such as Sino-Japanese friendship, and neither side said yes or no as to whether these interest-free loans were paid for war reparations. And the Chinese people don't care about this matter, buying one or two Japanese electrical appliances has become the most enthusiastic thing in Chinese that era, if you don't have a Japanese TV or a Japanese refrigerator at home, then your family must have a tight life.

This trend has continued into the 21st century, and the young people born after the 90s, who have not seen Japanese manga, who has not watched Japanese anime, who has not played Japanese game consoles, who has not chased Japanese stars? Of course, there is a more common thing, no matter who was born in that era, the other has not watched Japanese romantic action movies.

However, at this time, the mood of the Chinese is more complicated, especially young people, they use and buy, and they have to scold at the same time, Hong Tao did not understand in his previous life, what these people think, you have to say that you want to avenge your ancestors, you should not buy, and then you are qualified to scold; if you want to say that you want to enjoy it, then you should close your mouth, you can't eat while eating, and eat very deliciously, and then scold the cook.

At this meeting, the situation in which the party's work was advancing in a state of hesitation in the two years after the "Gang of Four" was smashed was put an end to and the guiding principle of "emancipating the mind, using one's brains, seeking truth from facts, and looking forward in unity" was determined, which meant that China's national door should be slowly opened.

For ordinary Chinese people, a new era is about to begin, and for Hong Tao personally, his era is about to begin.
