Chapter 204: The Television
After Yan Jiecheng listened to what the boy said, he glanced at her angrily, and didn't bother to pay attention to her.
He wanted to buy this cloth and take it to the countryside to exchange things, and sometimes when he went to the countryside to buy things, the money was not very easy to use, after all, the peasants did not have tickets, and they did not have much use with the money.
"Can I buy more? If so, buy as much as you can? Even if you buy them all, you'll be fine. ”
Yan Jiecheng also had no choice, he wanted to buy good cloth, but there were so many tickets. Although this cloth is a defective product, it can be used when making clothes with a few more threads in the corners, and their curtains and tablecloths are made of this cloth, which looks good.
"You're crazy, the defective products in our factory are not a little bit, even if they are disposed of at a low price, they have to cost one or two thousand yuan, why do you take so much cloth? We can't use it up for a lifetime. ”
Yu Li heard that Yan Jiecheng asked her to buy all the defective cloth, and she went crazy immediately, and she didn't listen to Yan Jiecheng's explanation and immediately replied.
"I didn't say that our family, this is for my cousin's village to buy, the people in their village to buy good cloth and no tickets, the last time Wei Guo came to our house, I saw that our curtains were made of cloth without tickets, I thought it was good, so let me help him pay attention to it."
Yu Li patted her heart with confidence when she heard that this cloth was not for her own use: "Ao, I see, you didn't say it earlier, it scared me." ”
"Then you'll have to give me a chance to speak."
"Okay, I'll ask when I go to work on Monday, the problem shouldn't be big, the employees in our factory don't like to ask for it, I'll just let them give me the indicators at that time, so that I can earn favors." Yu Li said with a smile.
After talking about the cloth, several people began to eat in peace.
After eating, Yu Li asked the boy to clean up the dishes, these two children are not young, and it is still okay to help the family do what they can.
So since two years ago, the work of sweeping the floor, washing the fast, and washing the dishes at home has been handed over to them.
Of course, it is not compulsory labor, Yan Jiecheng told the two of them that if they do these jobs, they can get three cents of pocket money a day, and each of them is one and a half cents.
Now, except for the Chinese New Year, the two of them don't give them a penny of pocket money, and if they want money, they have to exchange it for labor.
Yu Li strongly supports this approach, so that they don't have to do anything else at home except cooking and washing clothes, and they are robbed by the two children who are addicted to money.
After eating, Yan Jiecheng saw that it was still early, so he came to the study to read a book for a while, and this study was only renovated after Xiao Ziwan and the two moved out.
This one next to the courtyard on the north side has a large window that allows the sun to shine in during the day, much stronger than the one on the south.

There are three large bookshelves next to the wall in the room, thousands of books of all kinds are placed on the shelves, a big desk is placed next to the window, and there are several pots of flowers on the windowsill, which are still contributed by Yan Bugui, because he has a lot of books, and Yan Bugui usually comes to Yan Jiecheng's house to read books when he is free.
After all, with his door-picking personality, it is impossible for him to spend money to buy so many books by himself.
It doesn't matter if Yan Jiecheng is about this, anyway, anyone will read it, as long as the book is not damaged.
It's that the three mothers will say a few words about him when they meet him, and Yan Jiecheng didn't take it to heart, after all, for the three mothers, who don't know a few big characters, these books are worth a penny.
And Yan Xie didn't have the money to spend money on these books, and he spent almost a thousand yuan one after another. If outsiders know about this, they will be jealous.
Even if Qin Huairu spoils the stick terrier so much, he is reluctant to buy him a few books, but he is just eating, wearing, and being generous, this is the difference between people and people's thoughts.
The typical small-scale peasant consciousness is the same as the uselessness of reading as some people say.
In later generations, even if the rural conditions are better, why the proportion of children who go to school and become talented is still so low, more than half of it is an ideological problem, that is, the family is not poor in money and will not buy so many books for children.
Just like the 100,000 Why This popular science book was published by the state in the 50s, but many rural children have not read it 2,000 years later.
Yan Jiecheng held a teacup and drank tea while reading a book. Just as he was watching, he heard Yan Jiefang standing in the courtyard calling him.
"Xie Cheng, Jiefang is calling you in the courtyard, hurry up and go out to see what is going on with him." Yu Li walked into the study and said to Yan Jiecheng.
When Yan Jiecheng made this study, she was also a little opposed, mainly because she didn't understand why Yan Jiecheng bought so many books, she had a big head when she saw these books, although she also graduated from junior high school, but if she was allowed to read these books, she felt that it would be impossible for her life.
In the end, Yan Jiecheng persuaded for a long time and moved the child out, and Yu Li agreed. After all, how can you say that the old Yan family is also a scholarly family, how can you do it without a book to support the scene. Although this scholarly sect is self-appointed by Yan Bugui, it does not affect everyone to think so.
Yan Jiecheng walked out of the book immediately and looked at Yan Jiefang with a smile on his face:
"What are you looking for me? Hurry up and say something. ”
Yan Jiefang looked around, pulled Yan Jiecheng to the corner of the wall and said. "A good thing, a great thing."
"What's good? Did you pick up the money? ”
"No, I don't dare to keep the money for myself, it's a good thing. I'm talking about repairing electrical appliances, and he came to me in broad daylight after work today, and he said a big business, but the two of us can't handle it, so I'm coming to you. ”
"What's it, you two can't handle it?" Yan Jiecheng was a little puzzled, after all, they had been working for more than a month, and generally common electrical appliances like radios Yan Jiefang could repair them by himself, so he didn't need to come to him.
"Television, Beijing brand TV made in Jinshi, fourteen-inch big TV." Yan Jiefang's excited words were not good.
Yan Jiecheng frowned, he had never seen a TV set in this era, if he repaired it in the past, it would be okay to repair it, but if it wasn't repaired, he couldn't afford it.
It's not a matter of more money and less money, the main thing is that there are no tickets.
"You two should push this job, if I can't fix it, I can't afford to pay others."
"Don't, big brother, I finally came across such a big job, how could I miss it so much. People said that as long as it can be repaired, the accessories are not counted, and the manual cost is this number. Yan Jiefang stretched out the five fingers of his right hand and said with a smile, he didn't believe that Yan Jiecheng was not moved, this was equivalent to the harvest he had gained with Liu Guangtian in the past month or so. If this order is done, even if the three of them divide it equally, one person can get more than ten yuan.
But Yan Jiecheng didn't know, he thought it was five yuan, although five yuan was a lot, but it was not worth his risk, so he said, "Five yuan? Forget it, I'm not going to do it. ”
"It's not five, it's fifty, fifty." Yan Jiefang said excitedly, and his voice unconsciously increased.
Yan Jiecheng hurriedly stopped her, although fifty yuan was a little surprising to him, but he still didn't want to take this job, mainly because the TV set in this era was still a picture tube, and he was not sure that it would be repaired.
"You'd better go back and do more work with Guangtian, I'm not sure about this."
"Don't, brother, even if it is repaired, it will be fine, anyway, the family was going to replace it with a new one, and if it is repaired, it will not make money at most, you better take a look."
Hearing Yan Jiefang's words, Yan Jiecheng became interested and planned to change to a new one, it seems that the status of that family is not low, ordinary people don't have this ability.
You can see if you can buy it, anyway, the family is planning to change it to a new one, and it's your own business whether it's good to buy it and fix it.
"Liberation, whose family is this TV, how did you get in touch?" Yan Jiecheng was a little curious, to say that they knew that he still believed in the radio at home, the TV, even Yan Jiecheng didn't know such a person.
"It's not me, it's broad daylight, a new transfer from their factory, it seems that someone in the family works in the Municipal Revolutionary Committee."
I see, this is understandable, after all, this is the time when their gang is in power, and it is quite simple to get a TV.
