The main task of going to Shanghai was to sell "backpacks", followed by buying receptacles, English books, English tapes, and a guitar.

If there is a chance to find an old piano, Huang Han also wants to buy one.

If you want to come to such a big city, you can always buy old pianos produced in Shanghai in the twenties, and others may not be able to find a way, but Huang Han is full of confidence.

My aunt has been working in a thrift store in Shanghai for more than 20 years, and even if there are no old pianos on consignment in the store, she will definitely know which one is ready to sell.

As long as it is worth it, Huang Han is willing to spend money, estimating that next spring, the family should not be short of money, and of course the objects that are conducive to learning must be purchased.

Zhang Fangfen and Huang Daozhou are actually very atmospheric people, as long as the family has money, they will definitely be willing to buy pianos and tape recorders.

Huang Daozhou, who came home from work, was attracted by the singing, not only looked closely, but also sang along unconsciously.

He likes to sing, prefers to listen to songs, thinks that the tape recorder is really good, and asks:

"Huang Han, estimate how much this tape recorder is worth?"

Huang Han didn't know the exact price of the tape recorder at this time, but he knew that the retail price of a two-speaker stereo recorder in 85 years was 480 yuan.

It was a "Panda brand" that Liu Xiaoming's brother Liu Xiaogang saved money to buy after work, which was twice the size of Shen Xiaorong's Sanyo brand tape recorder.

In '85, the country's economic situation was much better, although the wages did not rise much, and the average second-class worker only had about 40 yuan.

However, the vast majority of units are paying bonuses, and the bonuses and wages of the units with better benefits have been upside down, and the Sanshui people use the local dialect "the son is older than the old man" to describe the strange phenomenon that the salary of the serious 800 is lower than the bonus.

Therefore, Huang Han was able to guess, deduce, and estimate the similar price from the actual value of the renminbi at this time and the wages of ordinary workers.

This single-speaker Sanyo brand tape recorder should be more than 200 yuan at the moment, and this money can buy one or two houses of about 20 square meters on Sanshui Street.

Buy your own speakers to make two speakers, the effect will not be worse than the two speakers borrowed from the experimental primary school, one hundred and twenty yuan is definitely enough.

Huang Han said: "The cassette recorder and two speakers, I'm afraid it will cost 400 yuan!"

"Obediently burrowed, another hundred yuan is enough to buy three rooms and a kitchen, it's too expensive. ”

"Uh-huh! Electrical appliances are really frighteningly expensive, too cost-effective, our family will not consider buying a cassette recorder this year. ”

Huang Han left the impression that Huang Daozhou was bold during this time, and he was actually worried that Huang Han insisted on buying a tape recorder.

The zodiac boat is not stingy, but measured.

The family owes more than 2,600 yuan in foreign debts, of course, they have to pay off the arrears first, and only after saving money can they consider buying these dispensable items.

Hearing his son's statement, Huang Daozhou echoed: "Yes, yes! It's not worth it." ”

Huang Xin and the little girl are quite fond of the tape recorder, but they are both sensible, and they also think that this thing is too expensive, and our family must not be able to afford it now.

The two of them are happy today, because there is a movie to watch this afternoon, and Huang Han also gave five cents to Huang Xin and asked her to buy two movie tickets to bring back.

Xiu'er and Yu'er both love to watch movies, and it's not good to see the Huang Xin sisters go to the cinema hand in hand, so Huang Han paid for them.

This is the advantage of having private money in their pockets, movie tickets are two cents a piece, and Huang Xin and Huang Feng can spend a dime to buy two cream sticks to quench their hunger when they watch a movie.

Cream popsicle is five cents a piece, red bean popsicle is four cents, in Huang Han's memory, this thing is too far away, I am afraid I have never eaten three before graduating from elementary school.

It's no wonder, Huang Han didn't eat this when he was a child, and he didn't like to eat it when he grew up, Huang Han's wife had a rich childhood, and she often ate popsicles in summer.

I still like to eat when I grow up, and now I often go square dancing, and I remember to go to KFC to buy ice cream cones.

Huang Han really couldn't understand that thing had a toothache from ice, what was there to eat.

Zhang Fangfen often said, "Accustomed to eating mouth, accustomed to running." "It really makes sense.

Huang Xin, Huang Han, and Huang Feng didn't like snacks when they were young, and they didn't like to eat snacks when they grew up, and the snacks at home were often expired, and they always couldn't remember to eat a few bites.

Huang Xin pinched the five cents given by Huang Han and led the little girl out of the house, and heard the little girl's voice from a distance: "Sister, can we eat red bean popsicles?" ”

"Hehe, if you want to save money, it's better not to eat, you can save a dime!"

"But my brother told us to eat popsicles!"

"You're a glutton. ”

......

Xiu'er saw that Huang Han took money to let Huang Xin buy movie tickets for her and Yu'er, she was a little embarrassed to let a child spend money, and said:

"Huang Han, I borrowed the four cents, and I will pay you back after taking the salary!"

"No need, it's right to invite the two sisters to watch a movie, and I'll invite my uncle to watch it tomorrow. ”

Yu'er said strangely: "Huang Han, you are so small, how can you have five cents in your pocket?"

"I earned it myself, and a small article I wrote was published, and the day before yesterday, the principal gave me four dollars and seven cents for the manuscript fee. ”

This is not nonsense, it is indeed President Zhu who gave Huang Han the manuscript fee sent by Hucheng, causing Huang Han's private money to reach 22 yuan and 7 cents, and today he spent 5 cents, and there are 22 yuan and 2 cents.

"Wow! you're amazing!"

"So you two don't need to be polite to me, it's nothing for me to invite you to watch a movie. ”

"Hee-hee, you're so generous! Is the movie good?"

"Of course it's good-looking, does Liu Xiaoqing know?"

Yu'er said: "I know! she's Xiaohua, right?" ”

Rural people in these years are poor, but they can see movies.

It is all communes and brigades that organize and contact the screening team to go to the countryside, and do not want members to spend money, and each level of government has the political task of sending literature and art to the countryside.

However, there is a plan for the number of screenings per year, and if you exceed the plan, you have to show your talents.

The most direct is of course the fact that some brigades with better economic conditions pay for it, and there are also cases where a certain family invites two movies for a happy event.

The brigade shows movies in the open air, and it must be at night, because they can't watch it for most of the day, and the members bring their own benches.

At this time, there was no entertainment in the countryside, and it was dark at night.

Once the news of a certain brigade showing a movie spread, the members of the nearby seven or eight miles all had dinner early and rushed over, often two in a row.

Many free love encounters and acquaintances happen while watching movies, and of course, many hooliganism crimes are also committed at this time.

The brigade plays movies, and Xiu'er and Yu'er have never been left behind.

The farthest record is that I walked seven or eight miles to watch a movie in the Shajiaotao brigade, and when I got home, it rained, and the four or five young people who went with me all fell into the mud and didn't return home until the second half of the night.

Both of them envy that people in the city can watch movies every day, and they don't need to bring stools, and there is a movie theater just a few steps away, and they already have ideas in their hearts.

When I get paid, I go to the door of the cinema every day, as long as I show new movies, I won't leave a single one, and if there is something particularly good, I can watch it twice, or watch it three times!

Xiu'er asked, "Is it that Liu Xiaoqing, who plays Xiaohua, is acting in the movie that is being shown today?"

This movie is called "The Mysterious Buddha", and she also starred in it. ”

Yu'er jumped three feet high in excitement, clapped her hands and said, "Wow! Great, I like Xiaohua the most, giggle......"

Xiu'er said sincerely: "I really didn't expect that we could live next to the movie theater, watch the movie after walking a few steps, and go back to the production team to tell others, they must think I'm bragging!"

Zhang Fangfen heard Huang Han's conversation with Yu'er and Xiu'er, and a happy smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

Zhang Fangfen, Zhang Yugen, and Zhang Huifen have a very good relationship, but unfortunately they are all poor.

Now that the family is thriving, of course Zhang Fangfen wants to help her sister and brother, seeing that her son is good to her two cousins, and she is ready to spend the money she got from writing articles to invite Zhang Yugen to watch a movie, of course she is happy.
