Chapter 12: The Psychological Gap
Qilu University is a century-old famous university and has produced many celebrities. Especially the current President Pan is even more famous, in the mathematics world, it is Taishan Beidou, the students he teaches are also very popular, and the published paper "Big Even Number Theory" has caused a sensation in the world.
Long Dan was admitted to Qilu University, in fact, he didn't have any lofty ideals, it was nothing more than a job, according to his hometown, just to get out of the countryside and eat a piece of treasury grain. Long Dan's department is the Department of Economics, and his major is also the most fashionable enterprise economic management, anyway, as long as he can graduate, the job is assigned in a package, so Long Dan has the same psychology as most of his classmates: 60 points long live. Studying is also relaxed, neither active nor backward, idle all day long, and several classmates in the same dormitory have become drinking friends.
Long Dan learned to drink when he was in the first internship, and several of his roommates were assigned to Xincheng City, which is a newly built city, because the underground of the old city was hollowed out by the coal mine, and the ground collapsed, so he had to relocate as a whole. Xincheng City has just been established, there are not many enterprises, and several Longdan have been arranged to a catering service company. At that time, there were no private hotels, and all the restaurants in a city were managed by the catering service company, so the catering service company was also a large enterprise in a city. Long Dan was assigned to the Xincheng Hotel in Xincheng City and began a two-month internship.
Xincheng Hotel is not big but there are more than 30 employees, all positions are overcrowded, Long Dan four people are assigned here naturally there is no work to do, said that they are here to intern management, but the manager will not rest assured that these children who have not returned to the fetus will do any management, manager Hu Dahai naturally has a way. Not to go against the arrangement of the superiors, but also not to let these students be idle, because if they were idle, they would cause trouble, so they came up with the idea of letting these four students take turns to sell beer.
At the beginning of the reform and opening up, people were not used to drinking beer, and there were very few bottled beers at that time, and even fewer cans, which were difficult for ordinary people to see. The beer sold by Longdan is in large cans, a large can of 60 catties, which is loose beer, and it is sold for 2 cents a catty. Long Dan and a few people went to the street to sell beer in two shifts.
When selling beer, it is sold with a pound of cups, and basically there is no need to weigh it, so that there will be more or less surplus at the end of the day. At the beginning, it was left in a big iron can, but later Long Dan tasted it boldly, and there was nothing good to drink, just a sour taste. However, young people are so strong, seeing that many people buy beer to drink, Brother Long Dan only drinks a few sips every day, anyway, the manager can't find out. Later, Long Dan was addicted to drinking, and he didn't drink a few bowls a day and felt uncomfortable at first, Long's brothers still drank only wine, and there were no appetizers, and then they learned well, and hooked up with the chef of the hotel, Daqin, who quietly provided a few appetizers, and a few brothers provided beer, and they came and went, and they didn't learn much from their management experience. It's just that the good times didn't last long, and the two-month internship ended quickly. Back to school, it's hard to drink again, there is no money at home, the 24 yuan issued by the school every month is only enough for living expenses, that is, squeeze out a three or five yuan, and you can drink three or two times, the brothers discussed a few times, there is no other way, only to find a way to do business to make some extra money.
Coincidentally, Wang Jing's family in the same dormitory is from the provincial capital, and his father is the director of the towel factory in the provincial capital. In fact, the market is not a problem, the towel quilt at that time was a shortage of materials, the key is to do it safely and without problems, but you have to find a way. Long Dan went back to his hometown on Sunday, ran a few state-owned stores, and found one who dared to do this kind of business. Long Dan took Wang Jing and went to the back door to drum out the approval slip of 1,000 bed towel quilts, and negotiated the conditions with the manager of the state-owned store department who dared to do this business, a commission of six cents per piece, and Wang Jing took it to help the manager pick up the goods, and Long Dan Wang Jing and Brother Wang Jing each earned 800 yuan.
In the early 80s, the average college student graduated, and the salary was only 34 yuan and 5 cents, and it was about 400 yuan a year, and Long Dan earned 800 yuan at once, which can be said to be a lot of money at that time, but ordinary people did not dare to do this kind of money, which can be regarded as speculation. In the era of price shuanggui, this is the fact: when it was first opened, many people did not dare to do business, but many of the inmates who came out of prison were not afraid of the ground and made a lot of money. Speaking of which, it is also the fairness of heaven and a kind of balance.
The brothers who have money are no longer shy in their pockets, and Long Dan is not stingy, every time he drinks and buys vegetables, he pays out of his own pocket, anyway, the money is not coming from the right way, besides, the brothers will not drink more than 5 yuan once. The dishes in the restaurant are 5 cents a plate of celery fried meat, and there is more meat and less vegetables, unlike now, it is 20 yuan to fry a plate of dishes, and you can't find a trace of shredded meat even if you are Bara for a long time.
Long Dan and a few classmates were mixed in the stadium and on the wine table, and their studies were much easier, anyway, if they didn't fail the course, they were still sure of 60 points. One afternoon, Xiao Bu Dian Xiang in the dormitory took a letter and said to Long Dan: "Your letter" and "My letter? Long Dan wondered: Who would write to him? Hurriedly opened it and took a look, it was originally a high school classmate Zhang Yun, Zhang Yun went to the Linshui City Public Security School, he knew it, but he never thought of writing to her. Zhang Yun's letter didn't say anything else, he said some greetings, introduced his own study, and the end of the letter was to ask, would you like to go to Linshui City to play when it was convenient, it was self-evident that she wanted Long Dan to see him. Long Dan smiled, put the letter in his pocket casually, and forgot about it after a few days, anyway, he didn't plan to have anything to do with the two Zhang Yun sisters.
When he returned home during the summer vacation, Long Dan helped his father go to the market to sell vegetables. The closest market to Longjiawan is Luxi Market, which is a big market in Fangyuan Market. Especially since the reform and opening up, the number of people planting cash crops has also increased. Early in the morning, Long Dan and his father came to the corner of the vegetable market in the bazaar, selling vegetables. "How much is this cucumber a pound?" "One dime and five ......" Long Dan raised his head and said in surprise: "Why are you?" Zhang Yun, who was standing in front of the vegetable stall, smiled and said, "Why can't it be me?" "How can it be so coincidental?" Long Dan said embarrassedly. "Coincidentally? It's a coincidence, I inquired about a number of people to find out, do you say it's a coincidence? ”
Zhang Yun said as if no one was around: "I won't reply to your letter, it's so rude, even if I chase you, it won't be like this, right?" Long Xin blushed and said, "I...... I...... Forgot", Zhang Yun continued: "Look at you, don't you scare you?" I still have something to do, go first, remember to write back to me" After speaking, he left the stunned Long Dan and left. Long Dan's father asked on the side: "Fourth, this is your classmate, he looks good, is it interesting to you?" Long Dan hurriedly arrived: "No, she is so crazy and crazy, she has no right words." After speaking, he sorted out the vegetables and covered up his embarrassment.
Actually, Long Dan didn't dislike Zhang Yun, but Long Dan had his own ideas. People are like that, what can't be chased is a good thing. The more Long Dan ignored Zhang Yun, the more Zhang Yun chased Long Dan. Long Dan has a deep affection for Ma Ting, and he doesn't necessarily know what Ma Ting does to Long Dan. Long Dan walked into the university and discovered his difference. It turned out that I was in high school, and most of my classmates were children of ordinary people. Long Dan is handsome and good at studying, so he is naturally the best in the school. When I went to college, I realized that I was so ordinary, and I had to mention more than that. Looking at the dress and affluence of those children in the city, Long Dan, who was originally high, was not as good as his classmates in college. Therefore, the first love that sprouted in high school was buried by the psychology of inferiority complex in college. Long Dan's psychology has only one thought, that is, to create a good world after graduation, even if it is not the best, he must get ahead in his hometown. As for college, it's better to stay honest until graduation and start working.
