Chapter 244: Distressed
It is unknown whether Chen Ming is the second generation, but the single nobleman is real.
Single, and rich. Otherwise, it can only be called a single dog.
A certain nobleman had just eaten, and was kicked by Zheng Yuanhai to pay the bill. Chen Ming was noncommittal about Zheng Yuanhai's desperate behavior of helping him play a sense of presence in front of the girl. But the price of a meal, even if Zheng Yuanhai didn't say it, Chen Ming originally didn't plan to let Ouyang and the two girls pay for it, or the troublesome AA.
"Thank you, Chen Ming. I'm sorry to make you pay, it doesn't seem that the salary of your troops is high. ”
Seeing Chen Ming pay the bill and come back, Ouyang thanked him a little apologetically. Obviously, he proposed to eat together, but it turned out to be as if the two of them were rubbing rice and pitting people.
"It's okay, the salary of the troops has risen a lot now."
A meal cost a small 2,000 yuan, nearly 400 per capita, which is really not cheap for a meal. Chen Ming shrugged his shoulders and replied with a smile.
However, thinking of two thousand yuan, Chen Ming thought of the salary structure of the previous army. Thinking that he had killed a previous corporal for a month's salary with one meal, Chen Ming secretly felt guilty in his heart.
"Really? Looks like it's gone up a lot. ”
Ouyang followed Chen Ming's topic and said.
"Now that the country's economy is developing better, the troops are much better. If you like the army, you should have noticed that it was difficult to promote non-commissioned officers in the army in the early years. It was because the salary standard of the army was limited at that time, and the number of non-commissioned officers was very strictly controlled, because there were more non-commissioned officers, and the state could not afford to support them. ”
Chen Ming also felt a faint pride when he thought of this. On weekdays, when he is resting, in addition to browsing some information on the army's intranet, Chen Ming occasionally browses local military forums.
I saw that some people inside posted that compared with foreign armies, there are too few professional soldiers in our army. Chen Ming does not deny this.
Chen Ming, who had stayed in Bald Eagle, also knew the pattern of Bald Eagle's army. Their soldiers sign contracts directly when they enlist, and a settlement fee of 35,000 US dollars will be paid before enlistment.
There are also two types of contracts, one is a full-time four-year contract, and the other is a part-time nature for reservists who provide services to the military in their spare time, but this kind of contract is signed for six years.
In their army, there is no such thing as a conscript, even a private has to be paid.
It's pretty much the same as our lives. If you don't have enough money, you have to settle for everything, so you can only find a way to spend the money as much as possible in some key places.
"yes, but I think those are too far away from our lives. Looking at it closely, life is indeed much more colorful now than when I was a child. Thanks to you soldiers for escorting us. ”
Ouyang Chun smiled freely, did not dwell too much on this topic, and instead proposed.
"Okay, let me find out where the shopping mall is, go shopping."
Chen Ming and Zheng Yuanhai, who originally came out to drink two glasses of wine, did not drink the wine in front of them because of the presence of the girl. And Chen Ming, who had nothing to do left and right, set off with the two girls without necessity.
The Chinese New Year is coming soon. Buying a new set of clothes during the Chinese New Year is also a custom to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new.
Zheng Yuanhai thought differently from Chen Ming, seeing that the girls really took their previous words to heart and were willing to choose clothes for Chen Ming. Regardless of whether there is a reason why the two girls are also boring, but at least it is a good start, and naturally I am happy to agree.
As for Jiang Xizi, as long as Zheng Yuanhai is there, he can be happy to feed the pigs.......
A pair of loose black leggings with a plain white T-shirt over it and a yellow and black plaid shirt over it. Chen Ming, who walked out of the locker room, made the eyes of several people outside light up.
"Well, that's a relatively simple combination. All that's left is the shoes, and this hair. I know that the army has rules, but I suggest that you don't shave your head flat in the future, just shave your head, so that it shouldn't be against the law, and now you can find a hat to wear it on. ”
Xu Tingting saw Chen Ming's appearance, and commented on two sentences. Turning around where the hat was placed in the store, he picked out a cap and handed it to Chen Ming, motioning for him to bring it and try it.
"Hey, don't say it, you look like a young man in his early twenties like this."
Seeing Chen Ming's brand-new appearance, Zheng Yuanhai laughed happily, and even Jiang Xizi thought it was very good.
"Wouldn't that be good, I'm in my thirties, and this dress doesn't suit me."
Chen Ming looked at his current appearance in the mirror, and only felt uncomfortable. Is this considered pretending to be tender?
"No, that's good, I think it's good. Wait a minute, let me take two pictures, and I'll send them to Xing'er and ask her to show them to Uncle Lu. ”
"Don't, don't shoot."
Hearing Zheng Yuanhai's words, Chen Ming almost couldn't hold back his scolding. Originally, when Xu Tingting asked Chen Ming what style of clothes he wanted to buy, Chen Ming was ready to choose a few more casual ones, but Zheng Yuanhai must insist on being young. What else is the fashion industry?
Now it's good to make it tidy, Chen Ming doesn't know if he can't make a tide, but it's true that he was not taken lightly.
"I'm not in a hurry to shoot now, I still have a shoe. We'll get it together later. ”
Xu Tingting said as she spoke, her eyes saw an Adi store opposite, and her eyes lit up.
"Go, follow me."
"Makes sense!"
Looking at Xu Tingting's resolute appearance, Chen Ming just had time to show a wry smile, and saw that Zheng Yuanhai had already followed Xu Tingting out of the door. Of course, Zheng Yuanhai's ass was also followed by a Jiang Xizi.
"Don't be surprised, Tingting is like this, when it comes to the content in her field, it is completely like a different person."
Seeing that Chen Ming was still stunned, Ouyang Chun stepped forward apologetically and explained. Then accompanied Chen Ming to buy the order, and the two of them were at the end and walked to the opposite side.
"This pair of shoes, I personally think it is the most suitable, but the price is really not low, I have to consult your budget."
Xu Tingting saw Chen Ming and Ouyang Chun enter the door, and hurriedly reminded.
"Which one? How much does it cost? ”
Chen Ming saw that Zheng Yuanhai, who had always been very active, did not make decisions for himself this time, and he couldn't help but feel a little curious.
"This coconut v350, about six thousand eight."
Chen Ming looked in the direction Xu Tingting pointed, and sure enough, it was the very famous shoe in his previous life. Chen Ming is not surprised that this shoe, which originally appeared in 15 years, is appearing now.
After all, it is a different world, and some things are not unaware of the changes, such as the early emergence of the concept of trendy brands.
But what surprised Chen Ming was the shoe itself. In his previous life, he had heard of the famous name of this pair of shoes, although he didn't know how expensive the price was at the beginning, but in Chen Ming's eyes, this was a pair of cloth shoes.
I really don't understand why it can be sold for more than 6,000 yuan.
It's not that Chen Ming feels sorry for money, although Chen Ming has not bought very expensive clothes in his usual days, but it is not unheard of that he wore a half-suite on a blind date back then.
But after all, it's formal wear, and it can hold up the scene at a critical time.
Well, Chen Ming is distressed.
