019 Autumn Tour

"Xiaojie, just say anything, your mother and I will definitely support you." Lin Gang said with a mouthful of chopsticks.

After these days of business, Lin Gang finally understood what it means to be rich. Now Chuanchuanxiang can be sold for about 500 yuan every day. It is a bit funny to think about this and buy a few cents of vegetables.

"That...I want to buy a computer."

Looking at Lin Gang and Liu Caixia, Lin Jie expressed his thoughts.

"Is the computer...a little too expensive?"

After hearing Lin Jie's words, Lin Gang was shocked and then muttered in a low voice.

Although he doesn't know much about computers, Lin Gang knows that a computer now costs at least tens of thousands of yuan. However, the prices of some big brands of computers are even higher.

Although their income is not low, this is just the beginning. Lin Gang and Liu Caixia only had a few thousand yuan in savings before, so it was really difficult to buy a computer.

"Dad, that's the case. Listen to me first." Lin Jie said after just putting off the chopsticks and sorting out the language.

"You know Zhao Hu from our class. His father sells electronic products in the mall. I told him before that his father promised me to pay in installments." There was no way, Lin Jie could only make up a lie: "And I plan to buy an assembly machine, which is twice as cheap as a brand machine. If it costs 5,000 yuan per unit, it will be paid in one year, and only if it costs more than 400 yuan a month."

The computer matter is something Lin Jie urgently needs, and it can be said that it is almost urgent.

At this time in 1999, major domestic Internet giants had already begun to start their careers. Although there are only 5 million domestic Internet users, this year is a year of Internet explosion. It won’t take long to go online users.

However, Lin Jie did not want to gain a place in Internet technology, nor did he have that skill. However, with his own computer, he still gets twice the result with half the effort.

Lin Jie still deliberately said that the price of computers is low. Even if the assembly machine is assembled in this era, it will not be that cheap.

In this era, a low-end desktop computer costs tens of thousands of yuan, and a higher configuration costs even tens of thousands of yuan. Even if the machine is assembled, Lin Jie will definitely not install a machine with too low configuration. The reason why he said the computer price is so low is to prevent his parents from feeling too distressed. After all, he just got a bonus of 100,000 yuan, so it is still more than enough to use a computer.

"That's fine." After hearing Lin Jie's words, Lin Gang nodded: "Your mother and I will make more money during this period, and we'll change them earlier."

Although he doesn't understand computers, Lin Gang has heard a lot of news about computers during this period. He doesn't know how to use computers himself, and he also hopes that his son can get more exposure to this aspect.

Zhao Hu also knew that he was a classmate who had been with Lin Jie for more than ten years. Lin Gang did not ask too much about the other party’s father saying that he could pay in installments.

Since things were settled, Lin Jie was relieved. He wanted to buy a computer, so he naturally had his own plans.

In the blink of an eye, it was Friday. On that day, the school organized students from the graduating class to go out for autumn outings. Early in the morning, Lin Jie came to the convenience store at the school gate and bought some food casually. Although he was not interested in snacks, he could not go out empty-handedly.

When he entered the class, Lin Jie found that the students in the class were very excited.

It’s not their fault. It’s a rare opportunity for these students to be able to go out in autumn in the third year of high school.

Soon, several large buses were parked on the school playground. Lin Jie and his six classes walked downstairs and took the buses of their respective classes.

Singing and laughing along the way, and more than half an hour later, the bus arrived in the suburbs.

The one Lin Jie and his friends went to this time was called Changshou Mountain. Like other places, there are mountains called this name in many places.

Changshou Mountain is not big, but there is only such a place suitable for outings near Chuhe County.

After getting off the bus, the students scattered.

There are many small stalls around the parking lot, all of which are small entertainment projects run by the people around them. They sling and ballooning are quite new in this era.

"Lin Jie, let's go and shoot?"

Zhao Hu came to Lin Jie, pointed to a stall not far away, and said excitedly.

"You go first, I'll go to the bathroom."

There was no way, Lin Jie could only help Zhao Hu away. Now that he was a human being for two lives, how could he play with those things that children played with?

There are very few things to play in this era. Chuhe County does not have large amusement parks like those in some big cities. Not to mention the amusement parks, even the number of cinemas is very small.

After Zhao Hu left, Lin Jie came to a pavilion. Since the students either went to buy food or played those small games, the pavilion was still a scene for a while.

After a while, Lin Jie saw Zhao Hu walking over with a gloomy face.

"What's wrong? Are you back so soon?" Lin Jie asked curiously as he looked at Zhao Hu's expression.

"I lost all of them, I spent a week on pocket money!"

When he came to Lin Jie, Zhao Hu said with a sad face.

"What have you played? Lost so much money so quickly?"

After hearing Zhao Hu's words, Lin Jie was also shocked.

He knew that Zhao Hu's pocket money a day was basically around five yuan. This was already a lot for students of this era.

From this point of view, he spent thirty yuan in such a short time. If this were put into Lin Jie's previous life, it would be equivalent to several hundred yuan.

"Just playing that ball, it costs two dollars at a time, it's so scammed."

Pointing at a stall, Zhao Hu spoke.

Following Zhao Hu's pointing, Lin Jie finally knew what he was talking about.

It was a game similar to pinballs. There were several small grids under a wooden box. One of the small balls was in a grid on the edge of the box, and the box had a slope. There was a pull rod under the ball, connecting the spring.

After pulling the pull rod, the ball will fly out toward the top and finally fall into the grid below.

The grid below has different amounts written on it, and if the ball returns to the original grid, it will be considered as losing, and you will need to pay two yuan.

This is a game that is a big street, and people who set up stalls have their own techniques. Before people play, they can demonstrate to people, or have someone try it themselves.

When he experiments by himself or people try, the ball will fall into a grid with the amount. When he really starts playing, the 100% ball will return the same way.

It was probably because Zhao Hu thought he could win the prize during the experiment, so he tried it. But in the end, he lost thirty yuan.

"Let's go, I'll go over and see if I can get the money back."
