Chapter 11 County Town
"What are you doing?!"
The new waiter looked at Sang Bai and felt that the person was shocked and exploded. If it weren't for her appearance, she would have spoken to scold people long ago.
"Sorry, sorry, sorry, I just want to ask, that tape recorder is really worth seven or eight hundred yuan?" Sang Bai asked.
"Of course, what's the point? My uncle's house in the capital of our province bought a Sharp's calculator, which costs more than 1,400 yuan..."
Guixiang looked proud, as if the tape recorder belonged to her.
Sang Bai was already half crazy at this time. Who would have known how many cows a collector could be replaced with?
Forty years later, someone told you that one of the inclusion machines could replace three cows. Do you dare to believe it? Nine out of ten thought you were crazy.
But now this matter is in front of me, and Sang Bo cannot believe it.
What is the most important thing? There is it in the space of Sanbai!
He remembered that he had collected four or five of them, and it seemed that two were not three of them. Anyway, he had not finished it. After he came back, he had one or two left to kill him.
Forty years later, this thing was collected by someone, but it was just a niche among the niches. Only when you have good quality can you sell it at a starting price. Sangbai was originally a part-time product circle, so he naturally followed the trend and played with it.
When I thought of this broken thing as so valuable, Sang Bai was uneasy, and I felt a huge buffalo riding a big motorcycle and walking towards me.
"Is there anyone selling these in the town?" Sangbai asked again.
Guixiang said: "Oh, that's not the case. If you want to buy this thing, you have to be the Wujiaohua shopping mall in the county recently. If you want to buy imported ones, you might have to go to Wujiaohua in the city."
When Sang Bo heard this, he couldn't help but want to go to the county town to take a look.
Sang Bai has a good temper and doesn't like to be angry with others. He doesn't take it to heart if others get angry and say something weird. In addition, his appearance is also popular now, so he soon started chatting with Guixiang and her colleagues.
People in Liushuzhuang cannot understand these things. They can’t even eat enough, so what else do they have to offer?
From the conversation, Sang Bo learned that an ordinary worker earns only thirty or forty yuan a month, and when he reaches fifty, he probably has to be at the leadership level.
Everyone’s life is not very good now. Farmers are not full, while workers are unable to buy things, so they need tickets for everything. Bicycles are one of the three major items, and the other two are sewing machines and watches. Guixiang and the others want the most, ranking the recorders and bicycles are firmly in the top two.
An ordinary bicycle costs a worker’s salary for two or three months, more than one hundred yuan. After 40 years, you will be beaten to you!
But now it’s the market. You can’t buy it with money alone, and you still have to have a bicycle ticket.
Bicycle tickets are nothing. If you want to buy a set of audio, you must also have a foreign exchange coupon in addition to spending a few thousand yuan.
This overseas exchange coupon is something that has never been seen by Sangbai, and these diners have never seen it. There is no Baidu at hand, and I can't find out what this thing looks like and how it came from.
After chatting for more than ten minutes, Sang Bai followed Lu Qingyao out of the hotel.
"Do you want to go to the county town?"
How old is Lu Qingyao living? He can tell what the Sang Bai is thinking about with a glance.
Sang Bai said: "I want to go and see. By the way, do you want an ID card or something when you go to the county?"
Sang Bai thought that there was already a generation of ID card at this time, but it was not the case. The generation of ID card was obtained for 95 years, or 14 years later. Now, you can’t stay in a hotel without an introduction. This is very inconvenient, but if you have relatives, it doesn’t matter if you live at a relative’s house.
"What is an ID card?" Lu Qingyao was a little confused.
"It's just something that proves your identity."
"Oh, you said a letter of introduction? No, if you don't live in a restaurant, you won't need this thing, but you will definitely need a food coupon for food or something," said Lu Qingyao.
"Oh, then I'll go there today and come back in two days," said Sang Bo.
It is better to catch up with it by chance than to catch up with it early. When I think about it taking a few hours to walk out next time, Sangbai decided to go to the county this time, and if possible, go to the city to take a look.
As for finding a place to sleep at night, is it a problem for Sangbai? Even if he has a store, he will not stay there. The space is uncomfortable or unclean, so he has to go to spend money to stay in a hotel.
And in this era, there are no cameras, so finding a place without people will make you flash into the space.
Chen Dongsheng was immediately a little excited when he heard this, but when Lu Qingyao glared at him, he became honest. In fact, he also knew that it was impossible for him to go to the county town at this time. What should he do if he went to the town’s homeland?
"You decided?" Lu Qingyao looked at Sang Bai.
Sang Bai smiled and said, "I'll go and have a look. There is no way to decide whether to make a decision. I will come back in two days at most three days."
Lu Qingyao didn't say much and said to Chen Dongsheng: "You are here watching the grain, and I will take Mr. Sang to take the bus."
After saying that, he took Sang Bai and walked towards the train station in the town.
When I arrived at the place, Sang Bo realized that the so-called site was just an iron sign, or hung on a big tree trunk. It was about the size of a license plate, with the words "Carriage point".
Under the sign, there is a blue and white bus that is round and ugly. It is white on the top and blue below the waistline of the car. The paint on the body is obviously packed and falls off, and some things are even rusted.
This kind of car was completely like a scrapped car when it was put on the road in Sangbai.
Lu Qingyao took Sang Bo aside, took out his wallet again, took out a dollar, and handed the rest to Sang Bo's hands, including half of the cakes.
"No, no, just lend me a round-trip fare," Sang Bo said hurriedly.
Lu Qingyao stuffed the cloth bun into Sang Bai's pocket, and said while stuffing it: "It's a poor family and a rich road. It's safer to be more at ease when you go out."
Sang Bai thought about it for a while and was not polite.
Standing next to the car and chatted for a while, Sang Bai saw a man and a woman walking out of a family next to him. The man's face was still red, and he was obviously drunk.
Walking with the man was a woman in her forties, with a long wooden box under her arm. She had never seen this thing, but she could guess it was a ticket box.
"I've gotten in the bus from the county town, stop talking!"
The woman got into the car and yelled at the door, raising her head and shouting at Sang Bai and the others.
Sang Bai turned his head and got in the car. Before getting in the car, he told Lu Qingyao again that he would go back in at most four days.
Lu Qingyao waved his hand and said nothing, but waved his hand at Sang Bai with a smile.
Before he got in the car, the driver over there kicked the accelerator and almost threw Sangbai to the ground.
Sang Bai turned his head and found that the little blushing drunk man was driving. His heart suddenly skipped a beat. However, after looking around, he found that the people in the car were very calm. Everyone was quarreling and fiddling with their own packages, as if they were used to this matter.
Sang Bo saw that these people didn't take them seriously, and he was afraid of wool. He would enter the space when there was danger and would not hurt himself, so he didn't say a word and found a place to stand.
Yes, it's standing!
The car is not big, only about twenty seats. Now the seats are full, and the stands in the aisle are almost full. The main reason is that there are not many people, but that everyone brings too many things.
Many old men and ladies carry loads, occupying two or three people's space alone, and even young people have big bags. How can this car not be crowded?
Soon, Sanbai couldn't stand it anymore because the smell in the car was so good.
Think about it, seeing a car of people crowded in a small space, and the big guys don’t take a shower often, and many people bring live poultry, chicken poop, duck feces, it would be strange if the taste in this car is good.
The reason why Sang Bo had to secretly take out the erection essence and put it under his nose, otherwise Sang Bo would really want to vomit.
The car stopped and stopped along the way, and every time I arrived at a small village intersection, I had to stop. It took an hour to arrive at the county town.
The county town is not in the mountains, but on the Jiangdong Plain, which gives Sangbai the feeling that he jumped from a poor mountain village to a big city all at once.
"After crossing the bridge, is there any one under the garden?" the ticket seller shouted at the top of his voice.
"I!"
Before Sangbai could come, someone yelled to drive, so the car immediately became in chaos.
When Sang Bo came, he knew that Huayuankou was the most prosperous place in the county. In Guixiang's words, if you can't buy anything in this place, you don't have to go to see other places.
After getting off the car, Sang Bokong began to stroll with his arms swinged.
The county town is obviously much richer than the town. On the road, the material of the clothes on the big girl and the little wife became significantly richer. Although there were only a few colors, Sang Bo, who was looking around, felt that he seemed closer to his era.
At this time, in addition to the sound of bicycle bells and the sound of traffic police whistles in the county town, it was not very noisy, and the crowds coming and going were not as fast as those in later generations.
Even in the center of the county town, no merchant can turn on the audio to the maximum solicitation of business, and the entire street exudes a charming tranquility.
When Sang Bai was walking in it, even the bicycle ringtones coming from behind made Sang Hai feel a special charm.
Just one stop at the intersection in the center of the county town, and you will have a look at all the shopping malls in the county town. People's Mall, Wujiaohua Building, Guohua Bookstore and a huge green post office, each occupying a corner, and it is not easy to not see it. This is the standard appearance of a small county town in the 1980s.
Needless to say, the bookstore was still not closed in the era of Sangbai. The remaining three people probably met in later generations.
The post office, which had almost no presence in later generations, is now a good department, and the five-story building looks very grand.
The fourth floor of the Wujiaohua Building, and the third floor of the third floor are for selling things, but the decent counties in later generations do not have its place to stay. But at this time it is still an indispensable part of people's lives. All hardware and electrical appliances need to be bought from here, remember that it is all.
The free market does not exist yet, and at that time there is no industrial and commercial bureau now. Where can there be a free market? Now there is only one office to combat speculators in the market.
The people's shopping malls are also mixed, and they buy food, clothing, housing and other things here. There are no other things except daily vegetables.
If residents want to buy fruits, vegetables and meat, they have to go to state-owned stores, which is a bit like the small fruit and vegetable stores at the entrance of many communities in big cities decades later.
But at this time, the waiters working in the shop were all state workers and workers holding iron rice bowls.
Sang Bai was very interesting to see. It was only about 100 meters from the get-off point to Wujiaohua. The kid walked for almost fifteen minutes.
After entering the Wujiaohua, the price of some things inside shocked Sangbai again.
As a later generation, Sangbai cannot be liked at all, and home appliances are so expensive overall.
A big black and white TV, or Sang Bo, seems to be a guy (twelve inches) who is about the same size as a tablet screen, costs 480 yuan, and it costs an ordinary worker's salary of 11 or 2 months to buy it.
The sewing machines that had disappeared in most of the homes in later generations cost 170 yuan, and the salary of ordinary workers is five or six months.
As for refrigerators and washing machines, they are all sky-high prices.
