The orange-red sunset follows the sunset, dipping half of the sky, and the luster spreads all over the hutongs of Beiping, reflecting the city, and also imprinting the silhouette of the people in the city in the summer of 90.

The two were fighting when the light bulb suddenly broke.

"Go buy a light bulb." Yang Zhe suddenly moved away from Jiang Xun, and his slender figure left a hazy silhouette on the window.

"What kind of light bulb to buy...... Jiang Xun was very unhappy, "On such a night, you should return to the basics." ”

Jiang Xun stepped on the maza and unscrewed the light bulb that still had residual temperature, and by the light of the flashlight, he shook the light bulb, and sure enough, the tungsten wire burned out.

"Then I'll buy it." Yang Zhe was not happy, "It's just right, I'll call the group at the entrance of the alley......"

"Well, tomorrow, tomorrow, you don't have to go to the alley to make a call." Jiang Xun smiled, "Hey, I have something in my bag, you can take a look......"

"I don't watch, I don't look at ......"

At night, Yang Zhe smiled and drove Jiang Xun to the front yard.

In the morning, Jiang Xun went to Renyi, and at eight o'clock, when he was in the practice room, he heard someone knocking on the door outside, "Does Jiang Xun live here?" ”

Yang Zhe hurriedly opened the door, and the masters of the two post and telecommunications bureaus were looking at the house number, "Are you ready to install the phone today and keep people at home?" ”

Loading the phone, Yang Zhe was stunned.

"Master, let me inquire, how much does it cost to install a phone?" Jiang Xun was not there, she asked hurriedly, she went to the kitchen to find a watermelon again, and cut it on the stone table in the yard.

"Well," the two people from the post and telecommunications bureau took the melon, "the initial installation fee is 3358, and the telephone fee is 238, a total of 3596!" ”

"Who are you from this family, didn't you say that a young man lives here? You are his lover. ”

The post and telecommunications bureau master's lover made Yang Zhe's face flushed. But she didn't deny that at this time, Jiang Xun was not there, and she had to hurry up to find money.

To tell the truth, the post and telecommunications bureau in the late eighties and early nineties, in a word, was awesome!

In some cities, the highest initial installation fee for a phone is more than 5,000 yuan, which is definitely a huge amount of money at that time!

However, even if you have the money, even if you pay the initial installation fee, you may not be able to install the phone, and it usually takes more than half a year or even a year to install it.

Because the installation of the phone to the home needs to be planned, it is impossible to pull the cable for a certain one, and all conditions need to be met to install.

It is conceivable that after the citizens handed over the money, they were very anxious, so there were various scenes of looking for connections and going through the back door.

As long as you hear that you are a staff member of the post and telecommunications bureau, whether you work in the telephone bureau, or in the nursery, canteen, or health station, even if you are the aunt of the nursery, they will come to you and ask you to help find a way to find a leader to see if you can install the phone quickly.

As long as the telephone bureau engages in the installation activities, there will be a long queue at the door, and hundreds of people will wait and look forward to realizing the high-quality life of "electric light and telephone".

These thousands of dollars are still affordable for Camp Commander Yang. After all, she had resold the rewind machine with Jiang Xun and Ding Zhicheng at the beginning, and she was rich.

But the money is in the bank, and it is too late to withdraw it.

There was no way, she looked at Jiang Xun's bag, and a contract fell out like this.

This is Jiang Xun's contract with Bunge, "Five million? Yang Zhe was so shocked that he couldn't speak. Last night, he just wanted to let himself see this?

I thought it was a small raincoat or something......

This song is worth five million? How many dances do you have to dance...... She couldn't think about it anymore, and watched it several times before finally confirming that it was true.

Five million, his brother, the director, oh, he won't go to sea anymore, he's back to the agency, I'm afraid he won't be able to earn so much money in his life!

Money, money, for now you still have to pay for the initial installation of the phone...... Don't look for it, there are still 2,000 yuan in the bag, this is Jiang Xun's remuneration for filming TV, he is now a star, so naturally he can't get another 300 yuan for a TV.

"Master, can you wait a minute......

"Little girl, don't you know?" An installer looked at Yang Zhe strangely, "How many people are waiting behind you!" The queue is lined up until the year after tomorrow, and it is also incense to be able to install the phone in the year after tomorrow! ”

This, Yang Zhe has heard that if you want the post and telecommunications bureau to pull the line, you have to invite guests to dinner, and it is normal to not be able to install a phone within a year or two. In order to install the phone as soon as possible, many units carried out car pick-up and delivery to the installers, and sent a few boxes of cigarettes to express their "gratitude" after the installation.

For this reason, the Post and Telecommunications Bureau has stipulated that it is strictly forbidden to "eat and take cards", and violators will be expelled.

"I'll take the money and go to ......" Yang Zhe was out of options.

"Whatever money you take, the money has been handed over," the worker master blinked, "the young man said, and put on the phone so that his daughter-in-law could easily contact the group...... Girl, which regiment are you in? ”

Daughter-in-law?

Yang Zhe didn't blush, but a hot current surged in her heart, she bit her lip tightly, and spit out two words with a smile, "Virtue." ”

……

At the beginning of the nineties, it was still an innocent and simple era, and the main means of communication were letters and telegrams......

But when it will take another three, five, or ten years, the Chinese people will clearly see that they are only one phone call away from the end of the message transmission of cars and horses!

Jiang Xun drove Dafa back from Renyi, and saw a bunch of people around the mouth of the alley from a distance, a group of children eating popsicles, drinking soda, and excitedly watching the installation master planting the telephone pole.

"Xunzi is back." Someone in the crowd shouted, "Okay, there are phones installed at home." ”

Everyone said a word, Jiang Xun listened with a smile, and he also greeted warmly.

Looking at the smiling faces of his neighbors, Jiang Xun suddenly thought of that movie.

"Niu Sanjin, your daughter-in-law's name is Lu Guihua. Lu Guihua asked me, will you come back soon? ”

You may laugh at the opening paragraph of this movie: 13-year-old Yan Shouyi rushed to town on a bicycle, and after standing in line for a long time, he used a crank phone in the town to call his cousin Niu Sanjin; The uncle who answered the phone was afraid that Niu Sanjin would not be able to hear it, so he shouted loudly with a loudspeaker......

……

The four masters were busy for a long time, and the second pole was also planted, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that these two poles were specially planted for Dongchang Hutong.

The first private telephone installed in Peking was a black telephone with turntable dialing, and although it was a rotary dial, it was the most fashionable object in the late eighties.

Now, Jiang Xun's phone at home is placed on the round table in the house, and Yang Zhe also found a new towel to cover it.

"Hit one." Jiang Xun said with a smile.

"Well," Yang Zhe picked up the phone and dialed the phone at home, and her sister-in-law's voice came from the other side of the phone, "Sister-in-law......" She glanced at Jiang Xun, her eyebrows and eyes were full of smiles.

"Xiao Zhe, where are you, it doesn't sound like you're in the ...... unit" On the other side of the phone, Yang Zhe's sister-in-law asked in surprise, "This is not your unit's phone?" This ......"

"This is Dongchang Hutong, I ......" Yang Zhe didn't know how to say it, "I ......"

"It's a public phone......

"No, it's Jiang Xun's call." Yang Zhe sat on the sofa and looked up at Jiang Xun standing in front of him.

Yang Zhe's sister-in-law smiled, "Jiang Xun has a phone at home, okay, what is the phone number...... I remembered, and I went back to my mom. ”

"I'll call Teacher Su Min for a ......" called Qindao's home, Jiang Xun was about to call Teacher Su Min when his pager rang.

This time, I went back directly to my own phone, and the phone was called from the phone of the Tsinghua dormitory building, "Xunzi, tomorrow's performance at Peking University, at four o'clock in the afternoon...... Don't forget to ...... on the shore of Weiming Lake."
