Chapter Ninety-Seven: Preparations for the Wedding
Chen Zhaoping's girlfriend meeting became Chen Zhaojun's liberation day. With Chen Change, the whole family understands that the third child will have a better life in the future, at least no one cares about him anymore. Anyway, Zhang Guimei is too lazy to care about him. But this doesn't mean that he can do whatever he wants, in case Chen Weixiong gets angry, he will still beat him up. Li Bing didn't know what happened that night, but he saw the change in the family's attitude towards Chen Zhaojun, of course he was very happy, at least this time Chen Zhaojun didn't poke the basket. In fact, they didn't know that Chen Zhaojun almost poked the basket this time. On that day, the duty record in the dormitory area of the General Staff was reported to the Military Intelligence Department as a suspicious incident, and the people concerned were happy to see this record. Chen Zhaoguang's younger brother is really interesting, and he still has a little sense of prevention, but why didn't he think that the duty record was the most important thing? Fortunately, Chen Zhaojun's affairs were basically mastered by the Military Intelligence Department (Chen Zhaoguangjin's department was to investigate the three generations), and this matter became a joke and was laughed off. Otherwise, it will really bring trouble to the Chen family.
For Chen Zhaoping's sake, Zhang Guimei made a special trip to the X Army and met Li Aihong's father and mother. Everyone was originally an acquaintance, and the affairs of the two children were clear, so of course there was nothing to say. After Deputy Army Commander Li greeted Zhang Guimei for a meal (he is no longer the director of the Political Department), he shook his hand and left a sentence: You old ladies can discuss this matter, and you don't need to ask me. Then he went straight to him. Recently, the X Army has been busy reorganizing and preparing to be reorganized into a group army, and Deputy Army Commander Li is also busy enough.
Of course, Zhang Guimei is full of confidence. Chen Zhaoping's own conditions are good, he is tall, white, and pure. has such a good unit, plus Chen Zhaojun's big wallet (Chen Weixiong has already spoken anyway), so the conversation with Li Aihong's mother went very smoothly. As soon as the two discussed, they simply set the time, otherwise they would have to count on Chen Weixiong and Deputy Commander Li, and they didn't know when it would be. Zhang Guimei took a big package, and Chen Zhaoping and Li Aihong's marriage time was given on the Lantern Festival. When returning from the X-Army. Zhang Guimei is like a general who has returned to the camp victoriously, not to mention how energetic.
When Zhang Guimei announced the news to the whole family, Chen Weixiong didn't react, in his opinion, the time was basically the same, anyway, it was the same thing. But listening to Chen Zhaojun's ears is different. Calculating the time, it will only take more than half a month before and after, if it is put until now. It's not even enough to send invitations. And that's not even counting the time of the whole room. But he quickly came to his senses, at this time, it seems that it is not fashionable to send invitations, basically just notify you. As for the whole house. Zhang Guimei had planned it early in the morning. Chen Zhao's dormitory must not be considered, after all, the room is too small, and it is not convenient at ordinary times, so it is better to live at home, first, Deputy Commander Li can rest assured, and secondly, when there is a child, Zhang Guimei can also help take care of it (I don't know how people thought so far at that time?) )。
Chen Zhaojun felt that something was wrong, he knew in his heart that it was his eldest brother or his future sister-in-law. I must be willing to have my own land. However, he knew that Chen Zhaoping couldn't say this (for fear that people would say that he was not filial), and Li Aihong didn't dare to say it (for fear that people would say it was because of the relationship between his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law). It happened that during this time when the school was on vacation, Chen Zhaojun began to think about it.
Zhang Guimei has completely delegated power to Chen Zhaojun, who is in charge of Chen Zhaoping's new home, appliances and furniture. In fact, this is also a no-brainer, the whole family has to go to work. Chen Zhaojun is free. Even if he doesn't go to work, Chen Zhaojun won't go shopping with Zhang Guimei to death, he is afraid of going shopping with Zhang Guimei, looking at the store one by one, comparing the price. In fact, Chen Zhaojun didn't know what to look at, and the prices were almost the same. It's exhausting. Later, Zhang Guimei thought about it, forget it, let Chen Zhaojun be busy. In this way, Chen Zhaojun has a little autonomy.
Chen Zhaojun walked around the street a few times and basically figured out the way. Actually, it's simple. The good stuff is basically in the Friendship Store. You have to buy foreign exchange coupons or foreign currency. And Chen Zhaojun's money happens to be foreign exchange, isn't this matter much simpler? I went directly to the bank first, and when I came out, I had more than 2 foreign exchange coupons in my hand, and then drove my motorcycle straight to the friendship store. He had to order his things first, pay the money, and then listen to the notice from the Friendship Store, and then he would bring everything home in one cart.
As soon as I arrived at the door of the Friendship Store, many people gathered around, all of them pouring foreign exchange coupons. Chen Zhaojun didn't bother to pay attention to them, and just wanted to go to the store. Just then, a man in his 30s with eyes and a good look stopped him.
"Little comrade, I want to discuss something with you, do you think it's okay?" The man was sincere.
Chen Zhaojun didn't look like a second-rate person who speculated on foreign exchange bills, and he didn't know what was going on with him, so he didn't delay listening to it anyway, so he stopped: "What's the matter?" ”
"That's right, I'm preparing to go abroad, I have a lot of electricity at home, almost all of them are Xindi, I'm afraid you're also here to buy electricity, or you can see if you can do this, when the time comes, you can take what you like, I'll give you a cheaper, can you give me all the foreign exchange coupons?" Dare to love, he didn't expect that Chen Zhaojun didn't care about money at all.
Chen Zhaojun laughed when he heard this. Now there are actually second-hand home appliances.
"I'm going to buy a lot of electricity, do you have enough there?" This remark smacks of ridicule in the first place.
That person heard what Chen Zhaojun meant, and he was also single
"Don't you say that I brought all those things back from abroad, yes?" If you have money, I'll sell you the house. ”
As soon as he heard the word Fang, Chen Zhaojun became interested. He knew that buying and selling a house at that time was not like now, at that time, you had no place to buy a house if you had money. If you can help your eldest brother buy a suite, wouldn't it be better than giving away anything?
"Hey, don't say it, I have the money, but I don't have a house, if your house can be sold, I'm interested." Chen Zhaojun's meaning was very clear, he knew that at that time, the house of the unit must not be sold for land. The only thing that can be sold is a private house. You must know that at that time, private houses in Beijing were generally small courtyard houses. If you can buy a set, you won't have to wait a few years.
"Nonsense, that's my ancestors, the courtyard house with three entrances inside and outside, the policy that has just been implemented, if you can come up with the money, I will really sell it to you." The eyed dude is also squeezed badly. At that time, I put down the words.
Chen Zhaojun is not in a hurry to buy appliances now, anyway, these things can be bought whenever there is money. I think it's a piece of cake for the room.
"Okay, why don't we go and see your room now?" Don't worry, if you like it, I'll buy it for you, and pay for it all in foreign currency. Chen Zhaojun is starting to get anxious now. In a few years, there will be a housing reform, at that time. The price of the room is not the same as it is now.
The man looked at Chen Zhaojun suspiciously: "Don't be kidding, I'm still waiting to exchange some foreign exchange coupons." I want to buy a house and let your family come here. He looked at Chen Zhaojun, and he was about to be less than 20 years old, of course he didn't believe it.
"Who said I was joking with you. Look. As he spoke, Chen Zhaojun took out his passport from the bag on his back: "I just came back from Japan." I was planning to buy a house in Beijing. "At that time, it was very inconvenient to not have an ID card, and Chen Zhaojun was going to the bank to withdraw money today, so he took his passport with him.
When the man saw it, Chen Zhaojun really took a passport out of his bag. He hasn't gone through the formalities of going abroad for a day or two, and he is too familiar with this thing. After taking a look, Chen Zhaojun really didn't come back from Japan for a long time. This time. He believed that Chen Zhaojun really wanted to buy his house.
"Okay, I'll take you to see the room?" Seemingly. He still has a lot of faith in his room.
—
"Okay, let's go." Chen Zhaojun didn't want to stay here for long, just this time, there were already a few people around them to watch the excitement.
The two left the friendship store together, and at this time, the eyed brother knew that Chen Zhaojun still had such a beautiful motorcycle.
。。。
The next few days. Zhang Guimei hardly saw Chen Zhaojun at home. She didn't know what Chen Zhaojun was busy with, and finally seized an opportunity, Zhang Guimei blocked Chen Zhaojun at home.
"Say, what have you been busy with these past two days? What about the things you bought for your brother? Zhang Guimei saw that Chen Zhaojun wanted to run out early in the morning, so she quickly blocked him and chased after him.
"Oh Mom, don't worry, I've arranged everything, I won't be able to make a mistake!" In the last life, Chen Zhaojun was married twice. I have experience with these. In the past few days, he has been busy with the formalities over and over again, and he has started to renovate the suite. The eyed brother was the happiest, Chen Zhaojun didn't make a deal with him at all, and directly promised to give him $5. You can't find that price anywhere. Waited for a $5,000 deposit.:.|lived with relatives. Even the household appliances were given to Chen Zhaojun. However, if he wants to get the rest of the money, he still has to help Chen Zhaojun complete the formalities, and he is also busy leaving, so he is very anxious these days.
"That's good, if you forget and delay your brother's business, you see that I will spare you!" Zhang Guimei actually just wanted to hear a quasi-letter, and now, she was much more relieved.
"By the way, Mom, is the eldest brother's household registration book with you? I'll use it. "That suite should be transferred in the next two days, and Chen Zhaoping's household registration book must be found.
When Zhang Guimei heard this, she didn't say anything, she would buy a lot of large things to register. However, when she handed over Chen Zhaoping's household registration book to Chen Zhaojun, she repeatedly explained: Be careful, don't lose it.
。。。
It can be regarded as lucky, the country's policy has been much more flexible in the past two years, and Chen Zhaojun has not encountered too much trouble in buying a house. In addition, he also learned a trick, no matter where he went to do business, he always took out his passport first. Don't look at this thing as a proof of identity now, but at that time, it also meant proof of status. In general, there is still money to do things, and after ten days of hard work, he was stunned to complete the formalities of the house. Of course, this is also thanks to the fact that he has a good means of transportation, although the oil burns a lot, but he can run fast enough.
The house was bought, but it would be troublesome to repair, according to Chen Zhaojun's estimate, it would not be good in a month. It seems that it will be difficult for Chen Zhaoping to live in the wedding place when he wants to. So Chen Zhaojun simply bought a new set of household appliances and moved a car to his home. However, there is good news that makes Chen Zhaojun quite excited. Director Xu of Hongdu Motorcycle Co., Ltd. called, saying that Chen Zhaojun's motorcycle had been ready, and he would see how to send Chen Zhaojun to Beijing. Chen Zhaojun counted the time. How to catch up with Chen Zhaoping's marriage, so he asked the factory director Xu to help hand over the people of the special first division, the special first division has been in Beijing in the past few days to do business, and Chen Zhaojun greeted Chen Weixiong that day
See.
But Chen Zhaojun is not so stupid this time. He did not go through Chen Weixiong, but directly called Huang Ping, the political commissar of the Special First Division, and told him about it. According to his estimates. Anyway, you should be able to go to Beijing a few days before the Lantern Festival. Chen Zhaojun calculated, if it doesn't work, let Chen Zhaoping directly find a way to let the ** Central General Office send out someone, and it is estimated that it will take less than two days to get the certificate down, and there will be no delay.
。。。
The matter of helping Chen Zhaoping buy a house in Beijing reminded Chen Zhaojun of what Michi said that day, and the rise in real estate prices in Japan came. At that time, he didn't pay much attention to it, although he knew that the price of real estate in Japan had risen sharply after the Plaza Accord, but no matter how it rose, it still couldn't compare to the increase in the Japanese economic index. In other words. It's not as quick to make money through real estate as it is to make money directly in the financial markets. But in the past two days, he suddenly figured out one thing. Back then, when the Japanese were rich, they desperately bought real estate or businesses in the United States, if they knew that a well-known real estate or land in their country was in the hands of the Chinese people. When they have money, I wonder if they will rush to buy it back for vanity? Chen Zhaojun even thought badly that in order to stimulate the Japanese, he should buy a piece of land in Tokyo. Build a big toilet right there. I guess if that's the case, the Japanese will have to buy it and bulldoze it. Of course, Chen Zhaojun also knows that his own idea is unrealistic, at least he can't pass the planning hurdle. However, it is estimated that if you buy a piece of land, it will be no problem to increase it several times in two years (the prerequisite is to reveal that the land belongs to the Chinese). In this case, it didn't break to do it early. Either you don't do it, or you have to get ahead of the Plaza Accord.
So taking advantage of the free time, Chen Zhaojun called Meizhi. Let her find a way to register a real estate company in the next few days, and then go to a few big cities such as Tokyo or Osaka, don't do anything else, choose a better place, and circle a few pieces of land first.
Michi didn't expect that she just wanted to help other companies in the real estate economy. But Chen Zhaojun really wanted to become his own real estate company. But there is no way, who made Chen Zhaojun the boss. Michi had no choice but to agree. Poor Michi had to fly to China again for this matter (many of which required Chen Zhaojun's authorization), and he didn't finish it for years.
。。。
Seeing that the Lantern Festival is getting closer and closer. Chen Zhaoping's time for a happy event is approaching. He discussed it with Li Aihong, and both of them took leave to register two days before the Lantern Festival, and then waited for the time to do a happy event, and then went out for a trip. With Chen Zhaojun helping to charter all the household appliances, Chen Zhaoping could save the money he originally planned to buy appliances, which was enough for him to go out with Li Aihong for a while. What Chen Zhaoping didn't expect was that more surprises were waiting for him.
On this morning, Chen Zhaoping had just gone to work not long ago. The doorman called and said that his brother was waiting for him outside. Everyone in the office knew that Chen Zhaoping was going to get married in the next few days, so they didn't assign him any new tasks, otherwise it would be troublesome to find someone to take over when the time came, so Chen Zhaoping was quite relaxed these days. As soon as he heard that Chen Zhaojun was looking for him, he explained to the people in the office and came out.
"Big brother!" Chen Zhaojun was very happy to see Chen Zhaoping, and after the New Year, he didn't see Chen Zhaoping for a few days.
"Why did you get here? Something? Chen Zhaoping is also used to saying this.
"Yes, I got you a motorcycle, it's about the same as mine. Look at who of you is familiar here, let's hurry up and put the license plate on it? "Actually, the motorcycle arrived last night. Because of his experience, Chen Zhaoping's car is much more beautiful than Chen Zhaojun's.
"Really?" Chen Zhaojun's motorcycle is also famous, and anyone who sees it is hot. Chen Zhaoping thought that he had nothing to do, so he might as well do it himself: "No need to find someone, I'll go to the office to say hello, and I'll do it with you later." "Since the last time I met Meizhi, Chen Zhaoping no longer worries about Chen Zhaojun's money.
There are still people who are easy to do, but in one morning, Chen Zhaoping not only got the license plate down, but also chose a good number. Because he had time, Chen Zhaojun decided to give Chen Zhaoping more surprises. He took Chen Zhaoping to the courtyard where construction was being intensified. At this moment, Chen Zhaoping was so happy that he didn't know what to say. Although this courtyard is not very large, it also has an area of 300 square meters, which is an incredible area for Beijing, which has always been short of housing. Anyway, it covers a larger area than Chen Weixiong's house, but Chen Weixiong's room is allocated by the public, and the suite in front of him is already his own.
"How much does this house cost?" Chen Zhaoping also began to become vulgar.
"Hey, you don't care about how much it is, it's up to you anyway." Chen Zhaojun said in his heart, if you know that I am about to buy land in Tokyo, I don't know what to think. However, Chen Zhaojun also knows that with his little investment, even if the land price in Tokyo is cheap now, he can't buy much. Fortunately, his main purpose was to raise the price of the land.
Chen Zhaoping did not go to work all day. He was a little dizzy. Not only him, but at night, Li Aihong also became dizzy. Chen Zhaojun asked Mizhi to bring a wedding dress to Li Aihong from Japan, and few women can not faint at such a beautiful thing.
