Chapter 7 Enhancing the image

Nothing was said all night.

The next morning, after breakfast, Su Zelin spread out his hands: "Dad, give money, I'm going to buy clothes today!" ”

"Buy, buy, buy, know to buy clothes all day long, look at your wardrobe is full, and it's all fancy clothes, expensive and ugly!"

Zhao Lixia couldn't help but complain.

Su Zelin's cabinet "fashion" seemed to the two elders to be spicy.

"That's right, those clothes are so ugly, I'm going to change them all to normal!"

Su Zelinnen's face flushed.

"Are you sure?"

Su Jianjun didn't believe it.

With what he knew about his son, these fancy dresses were "normal".

Su Zelin suddenly got angry: "Dad, with your IQ, can I deceive it?" If you don't believe me, come with me!" ”

"That's right!"

Su Jianjun was very useful for this sycophant.

"Your mom and I are not available, the store will be very busy today!"

He hesitated and made a decision.

After talking with Su Zelin yesterday, he found that his son is indeed not the same as before, and he even has the idea of starting a business after going to college, and if he wants to change his image, he naturally has to support it.

He took out five big red heads from the cowhide bag and stuffed them into Su Zelin's hand.

Prices were still cheap in those days, and the money was enough to buy several decent branded summer dresses.

"Stinky boy, remember, you can't buy holes, there are colorful and colorful ones, if you dare to lie to us, you won't be able to eat and walk around!"

Zhao Lixia told her, she originally considered letting Qin Shiqing follow her to keep an eye on it, but she was afraid of wasting other people's precious time reviewing homework, so she would give up if she wanted to.

"Yes, Mother!"

Su Zelin smiled and took a few old man's heads and stuffed them into his trouser pocket.

"Put this money well, beware of thieves!"

Zhao Lixia frowned.

"You old man, don't worry, who dares to steal my Su Zelin's money in Jianglan, I will smash his head!"

Su Zelin was very arrogant, but he was also telling the truth.

He has been restless since he was a child, fighting at two ends for three days, fighting with classmates, and also fighting with gangsters, hitting I don't know how many blocks, known for his fierceness and bravery, he can be called a street bully, and he is also famous in the circle.

Besides, gangsters and thieves are used to finding soft persimmons to pinch, even if they don't know Su Zelin, seeing that he is tall and big, and he is a ruffian, you can guess that he is either a peer or a master who is not easy to mess with, and no one will be full and have nothing to do and ask for trouble.

"What a person, you know how to fight all day long!"

Zhao Lixia chattered a few more words, and then went out with Su Jianjun, rode a Jialing, and left the alley.

In the car, Zhao Lixia said dissatisfiedly: "You, you, you are too indulgent son, buy a few sets of clothes and give so much money, a loving father is a failure!" ”

"My son wants to change his image, this is a good thing, besides, Zelin is more sensible than before, I chatted with him last night and asked him what his plans are in the future, and my son said that he plans to start his own business in college!"

Su Jianjun drove the car and responded without looking back.

"That's what he said?"

"Really, and I don't look like I'm lying, Zelin does want to have his own thoughts!"

"That's good!"

Zhao Lixia breathed a sigh of relief, what she was most worried about was that her son would continue to be so confused.

"By the way, when I was washing the dishes last night, Shiqing told me that Zelin was very obedient at school last week, and he often stayed in the classroom after school!"

"Hehe, it seems that our family Zelin has really grown up!"

“……”

The two old men just walked on the front foot, and Su Zelin also rode out on the back foot.

Jianglan is still quite small, and it has not been a few years since the county was withdrawn and the city was established, and the places where people often buy clothes can be counted on their fingers.

The preferential points are in the central market, the southern market and other large markets.

Su Ze first ran around, and was disappointed to find that almost all of them were stalls, and the style and quality were not good, "Nike" and "Adidas" everywhere.

The price is very cheap, some clothes are twenty or thirty yuan, and they can even bargain again, and it is no problem to cut a 20% discount.

This is the experience that Zhao Lixia told Su Zelin before going out, if you buy clothes in these two places, you have to bargain, turn around and leave if you are more than 80% off, you don't have to take five steps, and the stall owner will automatically call you back and make a deal with the excuse of "just made a market today", or "for the sake of you being a student, you sold it cheaply".

Before his rebirth, Su Zelin wore big brands, not that he was vain, but that the clothes of the brand were indeed of good quality fabric, which helped to improve his image, and he was also comfortable to wear.

Besides, his family background is still quite good, and he is sure that he will make money soon, so there is no need to wronged himself in order to save so much money.

After running two markets, it is estimated that the other markets are basically the same situation, Su Zelin no longer wasted time, and went straight to the famous street in the city center.

There are more styles of clothes in this place, and while the price has increased, there are also designs to speak of.

Walk all the way down the street.

Julius Caesar, the old man's head, Youngor, and Jinba are all too old-fashioned to be suitable for young people, pass!

When he came to the fifth shop, Su Zelin stopped.

It's a jack. Jones Specialty Store, which focuses on denim and is aimed at a young group.

That's it!

The bicycle stopped in front of the store, and Su Zelin walked in.

"Hello and welcome!"

Jack. Jones understands the psychology of young consumers very well, and the clerks inside are all handsome men and women dressed in fashion, and the girls who receive them are also very eye-catching.

Now there are not many brands that focus on the younger market in China, and the merchants are not aware of the change in the trend of the future consumption tide, and the brand's concept is in the right direction.

"Well, I'd like to see the jeans, straight!"

Straight-leg pants are a timeless fit that never goes out of style.

Small trumpets, big trumpets, and small feet have all been popular, but they have either disappeared or cannot afford to take up the mainstream.

"Okay, this way, please!"

The sister paper clerk took Su Zelin to a certain place in the shop, all of them were straight-leg jeans, and there were dozens of styles.

Su Zelin glanced at it casually, then his eyes fell on one of them and picked it up casually.

"There is a certain elasticity, good drape, and good air permeability, it should be a blend of spandex and cotton, and the spandex content is about 30%!"

"Indigo dye, bright and bright, slightly reddish, no significant staining of the bag cloth!"

"Delicate feel, high thread count!"

“……”

Before Sister Paper could introduce it, Su Zelin described it like a few family treasures, which made Sister Paper stunned when she heard it, and some terms she didn't even know.

Meet the experts!

But this little handsome guy looks like a high school student, why does he know so much......

Su Zelin fell in love with the pants at a glance, and the sister paper quickly went to the warehouse to find the right size, and by the way, she looked at the washing label.

The spandex content is 31 percent, and the cotton content is 69 percent.

Terrible!

Su Zelin tried it on, saw himself in front of the mirror, and nodded with satisfaction.

This is what a bit of a man looks like, and his previous image is too pulled!

His figure is a clothes rack, as long as it is not a fancy dress, and the size is right, he can easily control it.

The upper body of these straight-leg jeans is upright, and the key is comfortable.

Pure polyester fiber clothes are elastic, soft and drape, the color is positive and not easy to fade, but it is not breathable and does not absorb sweat, and the skin is not good, and the pure cotton clothes are just the opposite, breathable and sweat-absorbent and skin-friendly, but the elastic drape is not good, and it is easy to fade, so adding a certain proportion of polyester fiber blend to the cotton is the most suitable material.

In addition, it also depends on the process, such as the number of threads, which also directly affects the skin feel and comfort.

With a pair of jeans, he left Jack. Jones store, the consumption of this era is low, and it cost more than 100 yuan, compared to those 23 yuan stalls in the market, 2000 Jack. Jones was a little extravagant.

I continued to visit other brand stores, and I got a set of hip-hop wide-leg shorts and a loose T-shirt, a set of island college style, a set of sportswear, and the money in my pocket was almost spent.

Carrying a few large bags, Su Zelin left the famous street and went straight to a hairdresser.

In addition to his old clothes, he was also not satisfied with his hairstyle.

Although the long hair that is piled up in two or three or seven minutes is not non-mainstream, it is even a popular classic on the Xiangjiang side, Lin Zhiying, Guo Tianwang, Gu Zai, and Hu Zhifeng all have this hairstyle, but Su Zelin, a future person who has traveled back after ten years, still feels that it is not refreshing enough after all, and the summer is hot to death.

This is one of the most well-known hairdressers in the town, the fee is a bit expensive, but it will cut a lot of avant-garde hairstyles, Hong Kong style bay style and even European and American style, so Su Zelin chose it.

When he entered the door, he directly named the director, described it in person, and asked him to get his hair broken, just the hairstyle of the male protagonist Ke Zhendong in the movie "Those Years, The Girl We Chased Together", not long or short, just right, not only the vigor of young people, but also the age of a little mousse comb at any time, making himself look more mature.

The director's skills are good, at least Su Zelin is quite satisfied with the results.

After the image rectification project was completed, it was almost noon, and he rode his bicycle home leisurely.

I stopped at the convenience store at the entrance of the alley.

After walking around the street for a long time, the sun was scorching, and Su Zelin's throat was about to smoke.

"It's hot, Uncle Chen, come to the Arctic Ocean!"

Uncle Chen has been running this convenience store for many years, it is an old neighborhood, and Su Zelin used to buying snacks and drinks here when he was a child.

"Okay, Arctic Ocean!"

Uncle Chen quickly took out a soda with a polar bear logo pattern from the refrigerator and handed it to him, looked at it twice, and said with a smile: "Oh, Zelin has become a handsome guy!" ”

Su Zelin couldn't stand his old alternative clothes for a moment, so he bought them on the famous street and changed them into new clothes on the spot, plus a short hairstyle, and the whole person took on a new look.

"Uncle Chen, what kind of words are this, it seems that I was not handsome before!"

Su Zelin protested.

Uncle Chen smiled.

Although Su Zelin also had a good face in the past, he really didn't dare to compliment his dress, so this bastard boy was not afraid of beating, and his son also played the same tune before he got married, and he was coaxed after being smoked twice.

Shake it a few times and open the lid, the orange soda bubbled and splashed out, and Su Zelin took a few sips.

Cool and heart-warming!

Whew, it's comfortable!

While sitting at the door drinking a soda, Su Zelin also looked at the things in the convenience store.

Although the sparrows are small, they are full of organs, and there are still a lot of daily groceries sold.

Su Zelin's main focus is on snacks.

Mai Lisu, Monkey King Dan, lard candy, fig shreds, whistle candy, jumping candy......

That's right, this popping candy is still used to eat, and boys eat it too.

"Uncle Chen, come two packets of sour plum powder!"

Su Zelin was childlike.

"Such a big young man, what kind of sour plum powder do you eat!"

Having said that, Uncle Chen still took out the two packets of sour plum powder.

Su Zelin first fumbled up and down through the packaging bag for a while, and then bit it open with great interest.

Peeling open the pile of dark red powder, there was a small flat plastic spoon hidden inside, and the handle of the spoon was a statue of a sand monk.

This kind of sour plum powder belongs to the three-no product, but it has been promoted to the ceiling of the snack industry, not how delicious it is, the key is the "treasure" inside.

The shape of that small spoon is random, it may be a series of cold weapons such as knives, forks, swords, halberds, axes, hooks and forks, or Journey to the West characters, or dragons, snakes, horses, and sheep zodiacs, or Taishang Laojun Rulai Buddha and other immortal series, and even rarer is the European gods series and machine gun pistol submachine gun series.

Buying a pack of sour plum noodles gives you the thrill of fighting monsters and tyrants, not an ordinary thrill.

If a rare series of spoons is released, this spoon alone can be exchanged for a few bags of sour plum powder, but ordinary children are reluctant to change it.

Su Zelin ate hundreds of packets of sour plum noodles when he was a child, not to eat, he collected spoons, he still kept a weapon set and a complete set of Journey to the West at home, and there were also most sets of the 12 zodiac signs, but it was a pity that he didn't explode a rare spoon, which was a little regrettable.

I opened another pack, but my luck is still not good, and the cold weapon series, there are a lot of such spoons, and there is no collection value.

Su Zelin was not disappointed, anyway, he just played casually, poured the sour plum powder into his mouth, it was sweet and sour, and the taste was very good.

After drinking a soda, he couldn't get enough of it, and bought a banana popsicle, which was also one of Su Zelin's summer favorites.

At this time, two more children ran to the convenience store, a boy and a girl, who were six or seven years old, and they were children from nearby neighborhoods.

The two were sweating profusely, and the girl looked at the banana popsicle in Su Zelin's hand, and her saliva was about to flow.

Su Zelin smiled dumbly, and suddenly remembered that when he and Qin Shiqing were children, he asked Uncle Chen to take a box of "Seven Dwarfs" to them.

"Thank you, brother!"

The two children were overjoyed.

Being able to eat a popsicle on such a hot summer day is their greatest joy.

"Imp, wait a minute!"

Su Zelin stopped the boy with the ice cream box and asked casually, "There are seven popsicles here, how do you divide them?" ”

The little boy tilted his head and thought, "I have three, Kiki four!" ”

"Oh, why?"

Su Zelin was interested.

"Because I'm a boy, my father said that boys should let girls, so Kiki should eat one more!"

The little boy replied in an old-fashioned manner.

"Good!"

Su Zelin touched his little head.

"You can't divide it like that!"

The little girl suddenly spoke up.

"Oh?"

"Mom said that you have to be fair in doing things, so Xiaoqiang and I each licked the last popsicle until it was licked perfectly!"

"You're a good boy too!"

Su Zelin gave her a thumbs up.

The two little children ran away with popsicles.

Su Zelin was full of emotion in his heart.

This is our childhood, so simple!

"Zelin!"

A gentle female voice came from behind her.

But it was Qin Shiqing who stood behind him at some point.

"How long have you been here?"

Su Zelin was slightly stunned.

Qin Shiqing didn't answer, but looked at the backs of the two children in the distance, and a trace of remembrance appeared on her quiet jade face: "Back then, we ended up like this. ”

Uh, she's been here for a while......

Thinking of something, Qin Shiqing's face suddenly turned a little red.

The last popsicle, she and Su Zelin also licked it each.

After a while, Qin Shiqing's gaze was retracted.

Looking at Su Zelin in front of her, her beautiful eyes lit up and she was slightly surprised.

has been a neighbor for so long, and it is the first time she has seen her childhood sweetheart what she looks like now.

The thick long hair of three or seven points was cut off, replaced by a refreshing short broken hair, slim straight jeans made him more tall at 1.8 meters, with a red and blue T-shirt, the whole person exudes a casual fashion taste.

It's trendy!

It is not the "pseudo-trend" of non-mainstream clothing in the past, but the real taste, at least Qin Shiqing thinks it is very pleasing to the eye.

"Am I too handsome to recognize now?"

Su Zelin shook his hand in front of her, and Qin Shiqing came back to her senses and spat: "It's nothing, it's less stinky and beautiful!" ”

Uncle Chen looked at the two with a smile.

In the pair of boys and girls just now, he saw what Su Zelin and Qin Shiqing looked like back then.

The girl of the Qin family, when she combed two pigtails, liked to run behind the Su family boy.

In a blink of an eye, these two children have grown up, and I am also old!

"Uncle Chen, two more Arctic Oceans!"

Su Zelin didn't need to ask, he knew Qin Shiqing's taste.

The two liked the same soda.

Growing up together since childhood, he was in the same class from kindergarten to high school, and he knows her too well!

Chen Bo took out two more Arctic Ocean sticks from the refrigerator and opened them.

Su Zelin took one for himself, and handed the other one to Qin Shiqing.

The two of them just sat outside the convenience store, slowly sipping their sodas, neither of them spoke, and it felt as if they had returned to the old days.

After drinking most of this soda, Su Zelin spoke up again: "Qin Shiqing, promise me one thing!" ”

"What's the matter?"

Qin Shiqing asked casually.

"You must be admitted to Qingbei!"

Su Zelin said seriously.

In the previous life, Qin Shiqing was also a material from Qingbei, but later she played abnormally for some reason, and finally took the entrance examination to Zhejiang University in the same city in the province.

It is precisely because of this that the two had a lot of opportunities to contact each other in college, which led to the sagging of her later.

Therefore, Su Zelin doesn't want to be like that in this life.

"I'll try my best, so be it, and go home!"

Qin Shiqing put the bottle down, stood up and walked to the alley.

"Hey, why are you going so fast, I haven't finished drinking yet, wait for me!"
