After the band was formed, Yang Fan began to get busy. First of all, it is imperative to buy all the musical instruments, because Yang Fan and Zhao Wenwen's musical instruments are all brought from home by themselves, and Lin Peng and Li Dong do not have musical instruments in their hands. For this matter, Yang Fan specially called the three of them together for a small meeting and discussed.

"I remember that the rock club seemed to have a set of discarded drum kits that were still usable. No, I'll go over tomorrow and see if I can bring it. I'll fix it when the time comes. ”

Zhao Wenwen suddenly remembered that when he was playing in the rock club before, he saw a set of discarded drum sets.

"Really, then you can go over tomorrow and ask, if it can be repaired, it will be the best!"

Yang Fan's eyes lit up and said.

"Well, don't worry! I'm familiar with the people at the rock club, so it shouldn't be a problem. ”

Zhao Wenwen patted his chest and said confidently.

"Bass, no, I'll buy one myself, don't you all bring your own musical instruments? I have many relatives and elders, and the red envelopes I received during the New Year are enough to buy one. ”

Lin Peng thought for a while and said.

"Drums and bass are the most rhythmic instruments in the band, and if Li Dong's drum kit were to use the old drums, the rhythmic effect would probably be more or less affected. Don't buy your bass that is too bad quality, or when it comes time to play, the whole rhythm will be taken away. In this way, bass, you can buy a slightly better one then, and the money is not enough for the three of us to post a little more for you at that time. ”

Yang Fan pondered for a moment and said.

"Okay! Anyway, I'll use it myself after I buy it, so I'll buy a better one." ”

Lin Peng nodded in agreement.

"Okay! Then that's it! Clerk, you go and communicate with the people in the rock club tomorrow, if you can, Li Dong, you can use that drum kit for a while. And Lin Peng, if it's okay next night, I'll go to the city with you to see the bass. Let's try to start training as soon as possible!"

Yang Fan saw that the matter was basically finalized, and immediately spoke to make arrangements.

"Okay, I don't have anything to do at night, let's go and see it with you. ”

Lin Peng agreed.

After the matter was arranged, the four of them got up and cleaned the basement and went back one after another.

After dinner in the evening, Lin Peng arrived downstairs of Yang Fan's bedroom on time and went to the city with him.

The urban area of XX City is not particularly large, and after spending a semester here, the two of them are very familiar with the routes in the city. For a few relatively large musical instrument stores, I also know it. I planned the route itinerary in advance for the location of these stores, and I didn't spend too much time on the road.

The two first came to a musical instrument store called "Jiayun Piano Shop", the storefront of this store looks a little old, and at a glance you know that it has some history. The walls on both sides are lined with drum kits, guitars, and violins. Although it is a little crowded, it is still clearly classified and neatly placed. The owner, an old man in his early fifties with old-fashioned round-rimmed glasses, was looking down at his phone. Seeing the two of them pushing the door and walking in, he quickly stood up and said with a smile: "Good evening, what do you want to buy?"

"Hello, we want to buy a bass. ”

As soon as Yang Fan entered the door, he said straight to the point.

"We sell both acoustic bass and electric bass, I don't know which one you want?"

As he spoke, the shopkeeper got up and led Lin Peng and Yang Fan to one place, only to see that the wall was covered with all kinds of bass instruments. There are large and small, and there are different colors. The shopkeeper tidied up the clothes on his body, pointed to the various basses on the wall, and introduced them to Lin Peng and Yang Fan in an orderly manner.

"This one looks good!"

While listening to the boss's introduction, Lin Peng looked at the various styles of bass on the wall, and suddenly picked up a fiery red bass and put it on his body, which he liked very much.

"This gentleman's eyes are really vicious, this is the best brand sold in our store, and this is the only one left until now this month!"

When the shopkeeper saw Lin Peng pick up the red bass, he immediately smiled.

"Can we try the sound effects?"

"Of course, do I need to get you hooked?"

"Then it's trouble!"

The shopkeeper helped Lin Peng connect the power supply, and Lin Peng couldn't wait for a long time, and immediately plucked his fingers to play! As soon as the music sounded, Lin Peng completely fell in love with this bass. Not only does this bass look cool, but the sound is also quite amazing! No wonder it sells so well!

"I think this is good, why don't you take this one!"

Lin Peng raised his head and said to Yang Fan.

"Well, it's okay to listen to the timbre, don't you look at it anymore?"

Yang Fan also nodded.

"That's it! Wait a minute, ask the boss what the price is. ”

Lin Peng said decisively

"How's it going, sir?"

At this time, the shopkeeper saw that Lin Peng had finished the audition, and walked over with a smile on his face.

"Yes, boss, how much does this cost?"

Lin Peng asked.

"The original price is 4800, I'll give you a 20% discount, 3840. ”

The shopkeeper said with a smile.

"So expensive?!"

"You get what you pay for, little brother. The price is a little higher than the average, but the quality is absolutely guaranteed. And in terms of this quality and this shape of the bass, it is already cheap! I've also been a connoisseur in the musical instrument industry for decades, and this price will definitely not fool you!"

The shopkeeper seemed to have already thought of his words, and said to Lin Peng unhurriedly.

"Boss, you see we are all students, and we are not the kind of people who have a lot of money in their pockets, 3840 is indeed a little expensive for us, or you can give in a little. ”

"I'm really sorry, I really can't let it, I've already discounted you, and we're also a small business. If you think it's expensive, go for something cheaper. ”

The shopkeeper waved his hand and didn't back down.

Lin Peng looked at Yang Fan and asked him for advice.

"That's it, boss, 3,000 yuan! We'll buy it right now!"

Yang Fan thought for a while and said.

"Impossible! Young man, I have to pay 3,000 yuan myself! I can't do business at a loss, right?"

The shopkeeper refused.

"That's no way, Lin Peng, let's go to another store and have a look. Maybe we can pick a better one. ”

Yang Fan shrugged his shoulders and said to Lin Peng.

"Okay, let's go to another store. ”

Lin Peng said, and put the bass back on the wall.

"Hey, you two, there are other brands in the store, you don't look at them anymore, maybe there will be other suitable ones?"

When the shopkeeper saw that the two were leaving, he suddenly became a little nervous.

"No, I've seen all the other brands, and I don't like any. Let's go to another store and take a look. ”

Lin Peng said with a smile.

"Our shop is a time-honored store, with a warranty, if there is a problem within two years, you can come directly to me for free repair!"

"No, let's go to another store first. ”

Yang Fan said, opened the door of the store with Lin Peng, and walked out.

"That's it, little brother!3400! I sold you that piano at the original price!"

Seeing that the two of them were really leaving, the shopkeeper couldn't help gritting his teeth, slapped the table and said.

The two of them stopped and walked back.

"Okay, boss, deal. ”

Lin Peng took out the money with a smile, and asked a little puzzled: "Your brand of bass sells so well, why are you willing to sell it to us at the original price?"

"Hey~ you don't know, little brother. Our old business is not doing well right now. This brand of bass is indeed the best in our store, but there are fewer and fewer customers who care about our store now. A few years ago, a Guosheng piano store was opened in the city, which robbed all the business of our store. So, I'm now able to do one order. ”

The shopkeeper sighed deeply and said helplessly.

"Oh, that's right....."

Lin Peng nodded thoughtfully, and then asked, "Then what you just said about the two-year warranty still counts?"

"Forget it! The most important thing for me Xu to do business is honesty and sincerity, if there is a problem with your bass, just show it to me, and promise to repair it in place for you!"

The shopkeeper patted his chest with a look of promise.

"Okay! Thank you then! Boss, come back next time you need to!"

Lin Peng took the other party's packaged bass and said with a smile.

"Okay, those two walk slowly, and if you need other instruments, please come and patronize. If you have classmates or friends who need to buy, please help me advertise!"

The shopkeeper said with a smile on his face.

"Don't worry, I will definitely help you recommend and recommend!"

As they spoke, they pushed open the door and walked out of the musical instrument shop.
