Chapter 37: What's going on?
Yunnan is beautiful in spring, but BJ is windy and snowy, as soon as they got off the train, Tang Qin, Qiu Peining and Li Chengru hurriedly took out the cotton clothes from their respective luggage bags, put on the cotton hat, covered the cotton gloves, and wrapped the cotton scarf, this is what it looks like to spend the winter in BJ.
The filming of the three difficulties and the trapped Five Elements Mountain has been completed, as usual, Qiu Peining sent the tape back to BJ for dubbing, and Tang Qin is a voice actor, so naturally he will come back together.
Li Chengru returned to BJ, but because his mother was sick, he was a filial son, and he was also waiting in the hospital.
"That's it, public first, then private, let's send the tape back to the stage first, and then go to see the old lady." Dozens of hours on the train, Tang Qin was already the center of the three of them, and the two of them hoped that he would make up his mind in everything, "So many films, this is a baby, let's stop taking the bus, just take a taxi." ”
"That's so expensive, and Taili won't reimburse you." Li Chengru wanted to object, in the crew, he saved money because he was in the habit of saving, but he had to search wherever he spent a little money, but Tang Qin was resolute and Qiu Peining agreed, so he could only knock on the window.
The windows were closed, and the driver was sleeping in a cotton coat.
"Master, don't sleep, China TV." Li Chengru knocked on the car window, "Wake up, don't fall asleep......"
The driver opened his sleepy eyes, wrapped his coat again, and replied through the window, "What are you shouting, what China TV?" Don't go. ”
Hey, Li Chengru's temper came up, "You won't go to China TV, we are from the Journey to the West crew, what's the matter, co-authoring the light to pull foreigners?" Chinese can't take a taxi? ”
"Even if you're right, one dollar of foreign exchange coupons is worth two yuan for one yuan, and there are two prices for tobacco and alcohol in shopping malls, and one price for foreigners Chinese one price,...... There are more than 1,000 taxis in the whole BJ, and foreigners can't pull them, and they still pull you? The driver refused to be reasonable, and with the same few words of Beijing films, Li Chengru, who was still uneasy at this time, was so choked that he couldn't speak.
"Master, don't worry, we'll double the price......" Tang Qin took out his wallet and shook it in front of the driver's eyes, "Double, do you pull it?" ”
Double the price, the driver muttered while crossing, "I should be tired today, let's go, take the luggage by yourself, it's so cold outside, I won't go down......"
"Twelve dollars." In the car, Li Chengru complained quietly.
"Looking for Director Yang for reimbursement ......" Tang Qin had the confidence on his face, but when he really arrived at the door of China TV, his confidence was gone.
In his purse, there were only ten dollars left, and a five-cent, two cent-and-two cents, oh, and a five-cent steel hammer.
What about my money?
In his previous life, he was a master who didn't spend a lot of money, and he was also generous, there are so many masters in the crew, and he usually invites the master out to rub it out from time to time, and no matter how much his salary is, he can't afford to spend money like water.
"Master, be accommodating," Li Chengru's family is even more difficult, he is a filial son, and it doesn't cost money to eat in the Journey to the West crew, he sent the money to his family, "I didn't need so much money to get here from the train station." ”
"If you have the ability, don't take a taxi, ah, when you get to the door, you start crying again, I recruit who to provoke, and it's not easy for me to ...... in the cold" The driver looked unforgiving, or Qiu Peining took out the money, which blocked his mouth.
"I owe you." Tang Qin is uncomfortable, in the eighties, such an innocent era, it is still impossible to leave the money.
handed the tape to Feng Jingshan, and went to the hospital to see Li Chengru's mother, Li Chengru didn't want to go, and proposed to eat braised boiled fire, he said that he knew that there was a place where braised boiled was very authentic.
At this time, the three of them took the bus honestly.
Hufang Bridge intersection, an old state-run restaurant.
At first glance, the doors and windows are painted green on wood, and the glass is covered with various dish names, and the doors are also old-fashioned spring doors, the kind of double fans.
The restaurant was very lively, and the three of them couldn't find a seat when they went in, so they could only fight a table with strangers against the wall.
In these years, eating in a state-run restaurant, sharing a table is a common thing, but the wall is a little dirty, the white wall is painted with green paint, directly painted into a wall fence, BJ people are called "sanitary wall", but where there are mud splashes on it, don't worry, take a rag to wipe it clean, it is not troublesome at all.
But it is said to be a sanitary wall, but it is always oily and twisted, "I sit inside, you sit outside." Tang Qin could see that Qiu Peining loved to be clean, and her temperament seemed to be incompatible with the fireworks here.
Li Chengru was very excited, not to mention the stew, and asked for two stir-fried vegetables, Tang Qin added some chili oil, garlic juice and coriander to Qiu Peining's bowl, and added vinegar.
"Have you heard, now they are all going to the sea, my buddy, just specialize in pouring that kind of foreign trade clothing, I heard that they are all sent now." Although he is not talkative at this time, Li Chengru is obviously leaning on this path.
"Go to the sea." Eating the hot stew, the originally fair face was flushed, and Qiu Peining rarely smiled, "Cheng Ru, you also want to go to the sea?" ”
"I've been in the sea all the time, I'm not like you, I have a formal unit, I'm just a temporary worker." Li Chengru smiled, smiling a little bitterly.
Qiu Peining stopped talking, in the compound, many classmates are small and are doing business, their group of people, there are people behind them, there are clouds on their heads, there are roads under their feet, it is too easy to make money.
"I just want to learn more things in the crew," she looked at Tang Qin intentionally or unintentionally, "I heard that Ruan Tai has a good impression of you, and the last time I returned to BJ from Zhenjiang, I wanted to transfer you to Taili, but the preparation is ...... in the center."
"Me, I can do it anywhere...... Eat it! Tang Qin glanced at the waiter, he already loved to ignore it, the state-run restaurant was outdated, he wanted to chat with his buddies and friends for a while after eating, there was no door, it was almost time to get off work, no matter whether there were guests or not, they would go directly to the board to pick up people!
"Waiter, check out." Li Chengru took out the money from his trouser pocket, which would be enough, but he had no food stamps.
In these years, even if you stutter early in the alley, you have to have food stamps, so if everything related to food has to use food stamps, there is really no, and restaurants can be accommodating, but it will cost more money.
It's just that his money is not enough.
When Tang Qin visited Li Chengru's mother, he spent almost all the money, and waited for Yang Dao and them to go back to BJ to pay their salaries.
"I'll come," in the end, it was Qiu Peining who rescued me, "You took care of me all the way, I should be grateful......"
Hey, what's going on? Two big men, at the end of the day, let the women pay.
"Hey, buddy, stop, stop, stop talking......" Li Chengru was angry, watching the guests at a table eating happily, "Did you eat the wrong dish?" ”
Yo, I really ate the wrong one, there were two plates of fish-flavored shredded pork on one table, and people ate their plates!
Sharing a table is a common thing, and it's really time to catch up, if these two guys at the table order the same dish, they may really eat the wrong thing!
"Yes, it's been a day." Tang Qin patted his empty wallet, which was also a pleasure.
……
In the guest house of the Coal Department of Liupu Kang, Li Chengru came out of the hospital, and he didn't go back home, so he went directly to Tang Qin to squeeze it, there is no need for a stove here, the heating is hot, and you can take a hot bath.
"Tang Qin, just now I went home to get a basin for my mother, and I was a small one, he was from the supply station, guess what he said, he asked me, is it okay to pour color TV?" When Tang Qin was about to fall asleep, Li Chengru broke into the house with Xue Xizi in the wind.
"Hey, Tang Qin, don't sleep, listen to me,...... I said of course it's okay, a color TV can earn fifty yuan, I gave me ten TV quotas, tomorrow I will pour out this quota, get the money, we share it equally, who made us ferromagnetic. ”
In the 80s, color TVs were still in demand and needed to be purchased with tickets. Ten TV sets can be sold to ten acquaintances, and each acquaintance can earn 50 yuan.
This comes and goes is two hundred and fifty yuan, and I can't complain that Li Chengru is excited, his annual salary is only four hundred and eighty yuan!
The next day, when the sky was just dawning, Li Chengru rushed away.
Tang Qin washed his face and brushed his teeth, drank two bowls of bean juice in the scorched ring, sweated, and when he came out of the door of the guest house, someone at the door said coldly, "You are Tang Qin, right?" ”
This one, Tang Qin looked at it for a long time and didn't know him.
"You don't know me, but I know you, who made you a TV star now," the visitor was also looking at Tang Qin, "There is a performance, fifty yuan a show, twenty-five shows in four days, will you take it?" ”
