Chapter 8, The Voyeur
Lu An once heard from an old driver of a medium-sized bus that there were fixed pickpockets on every route these days.
Every time the driver sees a pickpocket blocking the road on time to get into the car, he doesn't dare not stop.
The most conscientious person can remind passengers is: do not sleep, beware of pickpockets, and take care of their belongings.
On the way back, Lu An summarized today's investigation: there are four categories of clothing, food, housing and transportation to earn money, and the three of them can be given up.
He is self-aware, either the relevant ability is not enough, or the capital is not good, or he is limited by other conditions.
But he didn't get without a little gain.
Through his visit, Lu Ann discovered two interesting phenomena.
The first interesting phenomenon is that he actually saw a girl in front of the chaise hotel who was drawing a sketch portrait for people.
Lu An stood on the girl's back for more than ten minutes, and basically judged that the girl was a student of an art and technical school, and her family background should be good, and there were more than ten bottles of different types of acrylic paint in her bag.
In the Baoqing student circle, there is a popular sentence like this in private:
One is stupid, the other is evil, and night school is rich in small broken shoes;
The textile is poor, the wealth is rich, and the American school has competed over the tigress.
Correspondingly: the girls in No. 1 Middle School are all nerds; The second middle school girl is evil, she can read and be eccentric; Not to mention night school, there are mostly ladies in society, and falling in love and having a baby is commonplace; The girls in the textile middle school are poor, and the girls in the finance and economics middle school have money in their families.
Finally, the female students of the arts and crafts school are "breasts" and evil, often with big breasts and beautiful girls carrying a utility knife in their hands, which is really difficult for men.
Lu An watched it for a while, and sighed: The girl's sketches pay too much attention to lines and structures, without interspersing, lacking artistic conception, just this talent, learning art is a waste of time, she and her acrylic paints need my comfort.
The second interesting phenomenon is that on the streets, where there is a trade, business is often very good.
For example, a cobbler, a tailor on the street, a haircut, a repair shop...
And when it comes to repair shops, Lu An spontaneously thought of repairing bicycles, and he will also do this craft.
Lu Xueping's brother, Lu Xueyou, is an old fitter at a state-owned chemical factory in the west of the city, and likes to sneak out to set up a stall to repair bicycles when he has nothing to do at work.
After the college entrance examination in his last life, when he learned that Lu An was worried about the cost of college, this uncle asked him to help repair the bicycle, and he could earn a few yuan a day for less, and dozens of dollars for more, and he had never been in the Air Force.
The reason why the car repair business is so good is that the most common means of transportation for people to travel in these days is bicycles.
In particular, employees of state-owned enterprises such as cigarette factories, chemical factories, saccharin factories, pesticide factories, feed factories and textile factories have almost one bicycle per person.
The phrase "our country is a bicycle kingdom" is really not blown.
Are there any bicycle repairers on the road?
Of course.
However, most of them, like their cousin Lu Xueyou, are some state-owned enterprise technicians who are restless at work and come to make extra money.
For this reason, Lu An has thought of a trick to deal with them.
If you do car repair by yourself, if there is an unknown repairman nearby who grabs land with him, he will report it to the other company. Or is it a small amount of money?
It's '91 years now, the wave of layoffs hasn't started yet, and the status of workers in society is still very high.
At this time, everyone did not realize that there would be a great change soon, and the country would implement the reform of state-owned enterprises. In the traditional thinking of workers' families, state-owned enterprise jobs are the most precious, heirlooms, iron rice bowls that can be passed on to future generations, and fragrant bait.
Let's put it this way, if you have been a worker in a state-owned enterprise in the past 30 years, you can find a daughter-in-law even if you look crooked and cracked, which is so popular in the blind date market.
Therefore, if the land grabbing offends him severely, it must be a report and a quasi-ho.
…
It was late when I got home.
In the alley, except for a few sneaky older bachelors who went out to find the young lady, there were only workers who came back from the night shift, and it was very quiet.
After walking for hours in a row, sweating profusely, and tidying up the house, Luan found a change of clothes and prepared to take a shower.
Because Guifei Lane is old-fashioned, there is no high-end design such as a shower room, and each family has to find their own way when taking a bath.
Lu'an's unique courtyard is okay, this kind of weather stands directly in the yard, and it is very convenient to take a shower with well water.
And like the No. 7 and No. 10 houses next to it, they are all 4-storey tube buildings, and it is very sinful to take a bath. There is no running water, no downspout, the kitchen is in the public room on the first floor, the cold and hot water for bathing have to be lifted up with aluminum buckets, and every household has a wooden round bathtub, after washing, use an iron spoon to scoop the dirty water into the aluminum bucket again, carry it outside and pour it out. The whole process is cumbersome and complicated, and it is more troublesome than cheating.
With plastic whiteboard sandals and big pants, Lu Ann took her first shower after being reborn.
Buckets of cold water poured down from the head, and the whole body revealed an indescribable refreshment, which was comfortable, and the comfort was about to die.
Suddenly, Lu An, who was about to flush the fourth bucket of water for the last time, recalled something, suddenly turned to look at Room 3 on the second floor of No. 10, and found that there was a human face on the window, it was Widow Zhang, who was about 35 years old.
In the silence, the two looked at each other in the air, and their eyes froze at this moment, suffocating violently.
It's going to kill someone! This horrific scene almost scared Lu An unconscious.
Sure enough, he has been peeping at the old man, but he just didn't make a sound, and in the dark night, his face was like a posthumous photo hanging behind the window glass, swishing miserably.
Lu An, who was relieved, took a deep breath, put the aluminum bucket in front of his crotch, calmed down, and shouted: "Aunt Zhang, you are too bad!" Gotta give money! ”
"Bang!" There was a loud bang on the ground, and a broken bowl was thrown from the second floor into the courtyard, smashing out countless fragments.
Lu An's eyes quickly took a few steps back, and shouted upwards again: "Double!" ”
Widow Zhang still remained silent, sneered silently through the glass window, closed the curtains, turned off the lights, and brushed off her clothes, hiding her merit and fame.
Nima, I've never seen such a straightforward voyeur, it's just too arrogant!
At this moment, a head poked out from the 3rd floor of No. 10 and shouted: "Lu An, Widow Zhang has been hungry for you for a long time, so you should follow her!" ”
"the old lady !!"
Before Lu An could speak, Widow Zhang's fierce voice had already pierced the sky, and the big head on the third floor was so frightened that he hurriedly retracted.
"Hahaha...!" Suddenly, there was a burst of malicious laughter from the entire Guifei Alley.
ps: The data of the new book period is very important, ask for collection, ask for follow-up, ask for a monthly pass! Ask for the support of the big guys!
These two chapters can be regarded as transitional chapters, setting a tone so as to lead to the people and events that follow.
Another: March tries to restore the humanistic atmosphere of that era, whether it is life or making money, they all pursue pragmatism. Learn the lessons of the previous book, this book will be close to the point of life when you make money.
Finally, I hope to write an interesting story as expected, I hope you like it, and I hope you will support it.
