Chapter 4 The Big Three and the Small Three
Except for the owner of the small shop, no one cares about the departure of the white-collar man, but the fat man keeps praising Tang Tianchen for pretending to be out of the realm, and his kung fu of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger is really perfect, and his acting skills are natural and flawless......
Tang Tianchen knew that there must be something else going on in this blue suit, otherwise he wouldn't have brought a blonde foreigner over, he would have to look for a house in the afternoon, this fat man was poor and endless, so he had to interrupt: "This Mr. Steven is here to ......"
The blue suit hurriedly gave up his position, and his eyes motioned to the foreigner in the black suit to greet Tang Tianchen, and the black suit stepped forward and shook hands with Tang Tianchen and said:
“Nicetomeetyou,Mr。 Tang,mynameisSteven。 josh,giorgio。 armaniismyteacher,Iconveygreetingstoyouonbehalfofmyteacher”
The blue suit was about to translate for him, and Tang Tianchen had already taken over:
“Iamalsogladtoseeyou,MrSteven。 atthesametimeconveymyrespecttoyourteacherMrGeorge,heisaverywonderfulpeople”
The black suit was obviously surprised to see such a young Chinese speaking so fluent English, except for overseas Chinese and international students, he rarely saw Chinese who could speak English, and at the same time was very happy, so the two began to chat in English.
Tang Tianchen had specialized in English in his previous life, and when he was working in Shanghi, he also went to the bar to fish for foreign girls, although he never succeeded once, but that was because he had no money, in fact, he spoke very fluent and authentic English.
The two of them were chatting very well, but the others looked at each other, unaware of each other, pricking up their ears to hear what they were saying, but they couldn't understand a word.
The fat man couldn't help but ask the blue suit: "What is this?" What are they talking about? ”
"Mr. Steven is Mr. George's best student, and he feels that Mr. Tang's photo has inspired him, and he is willing to design a suit for Mr. Tang himself, and he also invited Mr. Tang as a special guest to participate in the Spring/Summer Fashion Week and Armani New Product Launch in Milan in early February next year." ”
Qian Fat Man was obviously excited: "This is a good thing!" What did he say? ”
"Mr. Tang said he still has to think about it."
"It's a fart! Say yes first! By the way, let the family give me an extra invitation, my sister has wanted to go to the show for a long time, and she has been annoying my mother for a long time! ”
Tang Tianchen was not interested in participating in fashion week, the most important thing for him at the moment was to make money, and he didn't need to get involved in the art circle.
But since the fat man said so, it was not impossible to sell him a personal favor, so he agreed, and then Steven and the two left satisfied.
Tang Tianchen stuffed the three invitations into the hands of the fat man and said, "Give them all to you!" I'm not interested in what fashion week. ”
"Then you just promised someone? Isn't this a deception to foreign friends? will affect international relations! The fat man accepted the invitation and teased him.
"Huh...... Artists who are engaged in design are more or less stubborn, if I don't agree, he will be endless, and I have something to do in the afternoon! How can you have time to spend with him? ”
The fat man asked casually: "What's the urgency?" Renting an apartment? ”
Tang Tianchen nodded.
"Hey! What do I think is the matter? That's just this little thing, since you helped me get the invitation, leave this little matter to me! ”
The fat man waved his big hand indifferently, put his arms around his shoulders enthusiastically and said:
"Good brother, I just see that you are pleasing to the eye, since you have come to Yanjing, I have to give you a wind tonight, like this...... Let's not get drunk at night, you all go! No one is allowed to run! ”
It turns out that Qian Fatzi's popularity is not as good as he thought, and the people who came at night are counting the sharp-beaked monkey to congratulate the New Year, Qian Fatzi and Tang Tianchen, there are only five people in total.
However, all of the people present are well-informed and well-informed, coupled with Tang Tianchen, an "old cadre who tested alcohol" in his previous life, from time to time threading needles and throwing bricks and stones, the atmosphere of this banquet is quite good, and at the end, everyone is almost hearty and refuses to disperse, and obviously the relationship between them has reached a higher level.
Tang Tianchen inadvertently came out with a lot of news, most of which was about Lin Xiaowei: Lin Xiaowei's father is Lin Yukun, secretary of the Yanjing Municipal Party Committee, and there are four cadres above the deputy ministerial level in the Lin family, and they are the most powerful wealthy families in Yanjing in recent years.
Lin Xiaowei is the only girl in her generation, especially loved by the old man of the Lin family, and the people who pursue her can line up from the south of the city to the north of the city, but she doesn't seem to call anyone. He is currently in his junior year at Yanshi University.
The reason why Lin Xiaowei appeared in the snack bar of "Guo Ji Stew" today is because the owner of that shop rescued her seven years ago and helped her beat those people away when she was almost violated by hooligans and hooligans......
Since then, Lin Xiaowei will come to this store every month to take care of the business, and of course, her admirers will also follow, and deliberately order a big push to please her...... If Lin Xiaowei hadn't been taking care of her, and she had thrown salt at the boss's son, the store would have been closed long ago.
……
Several people were almost drunk and unconscious, rested in the hotel where they ate for a night, and slept until noon the next day, Tang Tianchen pulled Qian Fat Man to his new address, the location is quite good, and Yan Shi University is only one street away, less than three hundred meters away from the south gate of Yan Shi University. It is a small courtyard house.
There are three rooms in the north of the small courtyard, two rooms in the east and west wings, and three rooms in the south room. Lying brick to the top, ridged tile house. The south room is the living room.
The courtyard is paved with brick roads to connect the doors of various houses, and there are steps in front of each house. There are two doors, decorated with black lacquer and oil, and there is a pair of brass door cymbals on the door, and the two are pasted with couplets: the old books talk about it in detail, and it is easy for good customers to come.
The house doesn't look like it's inhabited, but it's clean everywhere and should be cleaned regularly.
Obediently, this is a courtyard in the third ring road! You must know that the house price in this area will start at least 80,000 yuan in 2015, according to 200 square meters, not to mention the value of 16 million yuan! I didn't expect that I would be able to live in such a house one day.
"What, don't like it? If you don't like it, I'll help you find another place. Qian Sihai saw that Tang Tiancheng's face was strange, and he stopped talking, thinking that he was not satisfied.
Tang Tianchen hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, I'm very satisfied, I live alone in such a big house?" How is the rent calculated? ”
Qian Sihai pretended to sink his face and said, "Aren't we all brothers who have drunk together?" What money is there to talk about? I'm mad if you do this again! This is a friend's house of mine, and now it is empty and no one lives in it, and there is someone to help take care of the house, and it is too late to be happy! What money to collect? ”
Tang Tianchen had already seen that Qian Fat Man was not a hypocritical person, so he had no choice but to give up. The fat man accompanied Tang Tianchen around the neighborhood again, bought some daily necessities, and then went home by himself.
The price of goods is really cheap this year!
Naturally, it is not a bargain that the money fat man helps to pick, but despite this, it includes cotton wool, bed sheets, quilt covers, mats, towels, toothbrushes, toothpaste...... A lot of miscellaneous things, it cost less than 200 yuan in total.
I bought a Wanbao brand electric fan, the price of 180 yuan made Tang Tianchen a little painful, this electric fan only has a simple blowing function, the material used is metal, it is relatively dull in terms of control, only simple adjustment functions such as wind speed gear and rotorator.
Electrical appliances are expensive these days! No wonder some people joked that in the 90s, the only electrical appliance in the home of ordinary people may have been a flashlight.
The Tang family is like this, Tang Tianchen has almost never seen any other electrical appliances in the old house except for electric lights and flashlights.
Fortunately, he didn't need to buy other electrical appliances, and the landlord who had never met actually left him a "big three", namely a TV, a refrigerator, and a washing machine, these three things are not cheap, and the average price is estimated to be no less than 1,000 yuan.
As we all know, in the early nineties, generally speaking, those who owned "small three pieces" were already considered wealthy, and the "small three pieces" referred to: watches, sewing machines, bicycles. Those who can afford the "big three" are basically the top rich.
This landlord actually left the "big three" for the tenants to use at will, it seems that this is already a master who does not treat money as money!
The capital is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and there are people everywhere! Be careful in the future!
Of course, the TV is an old-fashioned black-and-white TV, and at first glance I thought it was a microwave oven, but it caused Tang Tianchen's nostalgia......
I remember that the first TV in my previous life was a 14-inch black and white Panda brand, without a remote control, and with an antenna. It's pretty much the same as the one in front of you.
I remember that it was second-hand that my father Tang Changwen sold from someone else, but despite this, he couldn't sleep for a few days and nights when he was excited at that time.
Black-and-white TVs were arguably one of the best electronics of the early 90s.
There was no CCTV at the time, there were fewer channels and TV programs, and apart from the routine pause every Tuesday, it wasn't as full-time as it was later, and most of the time the TV was filled with picture test graphics and a full screen of snowflakes.
Despite this, enthusiasm for the TV show is still high. Watching TV became a key entertainment item in that era.
Although he was young at the time, he was also very happy. At that time, I was waiting for the cartoon at 6 p.m. on the TV, and now I have the impression of "Hulu Baby" and "Transformers".
At that time, I was young, and I didn't have a kindergarten to attend, so I had a lot of leisure time. The friends often imitate the plot of the cartoon, everyone is divided into two groups of people to fight separately, and the village is full of murder.
Later, "White Eyebrows" began to be played, and all kinds of heroes and heroes suddenly appeared in the village, so the night in the small village was full of all kinds of swords and swords......
