Chapter 18 Watercress Street

Some of the street names in Hong Kong are quite strange.

For example, the one that Su Jingzhen is visiting now is Watercress Street, he didn't understand why it was named like this before, but later asked Yuan Guanghua to know that this was once a vegetable field where watercress was grown.

There are similar street names in Hong Kong, such as Tung Choi Street, Soy Sauce Street, and Laundry Street, which are very full of life, and all the firewood, rice, oil and salt at home have come to the street.

Su Jingzhen won the money last night, and Italy finally won Bulgaria 1-0 as in his memory, he went out today to redeem the prize, just see if there are any other CD walkmans, and choose a good one to give to Chen Hua.

To say that the first choice to buy electronic products in Hong Kong is Sai Cha Street and Apliu Street, of course, these two places are for people with a certain knowledge of electronic products to visit, if you do not have this knowledge, it is more appropriate to go to the shopping mall.

Su Jingzhen has learned a little electronic knowledge from his father, and he has a vision for the next few decades, so he also came here to join in the fun and feel the fun of bargaining.

Relatively speaking, most of the Apliu Street is second-hand electronics, where there are cameras, amplifiers and other goodies that used to be worth a lot of money, as well as some worthless things, such as worn-out fans or something.

Yaliao Street is too miscellaneous, Su Jingzhen doesn't have the energy to go there to buy goods, so he consciously came to Watercress Street, Sony, Panasonic's CD Walkman, is the hottest top brand in Southeast Asia in this era.

Su Jingzhen was also dazzled, at first he thought Panasonic was better, but as soon as he saw Sony's machine and the slim body, he immediately felt that his previous vision was really not good.

But when I looked at the price, I felt that my previous vision was more stable and not aggressive, and anyone who came to see a CD Walkman would cost more than 30,000 yen, which would translate to a price of almost 4,000 yuan, and they would be scared.

This is not the 21st century, in the 90s of the 20th century, what did 4,000 yuan represent? Even for residents of the Yushui Delta, it was about three months' salary, and when you go to some poverty-stricken areas in the hinterland, this is almost two years' income.

Sony D321, Su Jingzhen silently wrote down the model of this Walkman, he didn't ask the boss to take it out and try it out, after all, it is easy to be blackmailed if you take it out, Su Jingzhen's accent is still a little different from that of Hong Kong people, others know that you are a foreigner, and it is not strange that you are a black point in your heart.

Although Su Jingzhen now has enough money in his hand to buy a few such machines, he can afford to throw the money on this machine, and the World Cup final will be in two days, and the 4,000 yuan will be used to bet, and it will become 8,000 properly.

Of course, if it were Su Jingzhen himself, he would never choose these Walkmans, you must know that in a few years, MP3 will rise, and in two more years, Apple's turnaround, the cross-century product iPod will also be launched, and then it will be the world of smart phones, and the Walkman will completely decline and no longer appear in the sight of ordinary people.

But now it's a gift for his childhood sweetheart, and after so many years, he has never given anything to Chen Hua, not to mention anything else, just Chen Hua helped him cheat in the last exam, and this favor must also be replaced, so although he can't look down on these walkmans, he still has to buy them.

Originally, Su Jingzhen just walked around today, but inadvertently, in a store that sells second-hand electrical appliances, he really found a good thing for him.

"Boss, is this bad?" asked Su Jingzhen, pointing to a dusty disc Walkman.

"It can be electrified, but the clip that gets stuck on the upper cover is a little loose, and it will open by itself when it moves. "This boss is quite honest and doesn't exaggerate.

"How much? If it's expensive, I'm too lazy to look at it. Su Jingzhen first asked the price, so as not to mistakenly think that he liked it when he got it, and he would be cheated if he opened a high price.

"If this thing could have been sold for 50,000 yen when it first came out, ...... now?"

"Boss, you tell me a real price, I'll take a look if it's suitable. Su Jingzhen is completely immune to this kind of boastful words, the bad is broken, and he still wants to fool people with the price of the year?

"Two thousand, two thousand and you will take it, this thing is very highly evaluated abroad, the timbre is first-class, in the eyes of audiophiles, it is a generation of treasures. The boss of the electrical appliance was not sure whether Su Jingzhen really liked it or asked the price, so he didn't dare to offer too outrageous prices.

"It's too expensive, it's almost brand new, this thing came out in the Year of the Snake, and it's been more than five years now, can it still be sold for so expensive?" Su Jingzhen rejected the price in one bite.

"You can't buy a brand new one for two thousand, let alone two thousand, you can't buy three thousand. "The boss stood firm and unmoved.

"You're bad, you can't take the Walkman with you, is it still worth it? Five hundred, okay, take it out and take a look." "Su Jingzhen has an excuse for bargaining.

"Five hundred, absolutely not, it's not worth the price I collect. Su Jingzhen's counteroffer is also a bit pitiful, and the boss is a little angry when he hears it.

"Then you tell me the real price, you look at the dust on it, if it can be sold, it won't be like this, right, and you look at the style, like a fixed phone for home use, it is full of buttons, you say that young people nowadays are embarrassed to take it out and show it to others?" Su Jingzhen pointed to the ash on the Walkman, as well as the appearance of the Walkman, and said with a disgusted face.

"Five hundred is really not good, why don't you add some more. The boss couldn't withstand Su Jingzhen's powerful attack power, and the gray on the walkman was really an unavoidable point, making him indistinguishable.

"Eight hundred, if the card is broken, I don't know how to fix it, if you had a way, I would have run to repair it a long time ago. Su Jingzhen seized the shortcomings and attacked.

"Eight hundred is too cheap......

"Is the outer packaging still there?What about the original earbuds and the warranty of the manual?" Su Jingzhen didn't let the boss finish his words at all, and immediately brought him into his own rhythm.

"Yes, yes, all of them. The boss seemed to see Su Jingzhen's weakness, and immediately said that this stuff box was complete.

"Eight hundred, take it out and take a look, if it doesn't work, I'll leave." Saying that, Su Jingzhen raised his feet and walked out, not giving the boss time to think about it at all.

didn't take two steps away, the owner of the electrical appliance store called out to Su Jingzhen, this thing is really not easy to sell, the appearance is dead, I really want to be like a landline, a row of digital keys, from one to nine, exactly the same.

Su Jingzhen took the Walkman from the boss's hand and wiped it clean with a rag, opened the lid and looked at it and asked, "The laser head is original, right?"

"No, really, I don't believe it, take it apart and look at the solder joints. The boss shook his head violently, is this young man in front of him an expert?

Su Jingzhen turned the walkman over and looked at it, and the tiny fixing screws on it really had no bite marks and had not been moved.

"Give me the battery, do you have a disc here? I'll give it a try, and I'll give the money to take it away if I can listen to it." Su Jingzhen didn't talk nonsense, saying that he would give money if this thing could light it up.

When Su Jingzhen took a bag and walked out of the store door far away, he laughed softly, this thing is a generation of artifact, Sony's CD Walkman D-350DBB, even after twenty years, in Nichia, this thing can be sold for 3,000 units, and it is very popular with enthusiasts at home and abroad.

This time I found a treasure......
