Chapter 1769: A chance encounter in the new year, prices soared
Zhou Chen held Wu Shanshan and walked beside the road. With the arrival of the Spring Festival, the problem of hepatitis A epidemic that lasted for more than a month has been solved to a certain extent, which has also led to slow down pedestrians on the street during the Spring Festival.
More and more.
Today, Zhou Chen and Wu Shanshan are both wearing new clothes. They bought them on Nanjing Road two days ago, with a new look in the new year.
After being with Zhou Chen for more than two years, Wu Shanshan has gradually become accustomed to Zhou Chen's consumption concept. Zhou Chen bought her expensive things, but she no longer refused and accepted them happily, but it was limited to Zhou Chen buying her.
, if she had to spend money on her own, she would still be reluctant to let it go.
Women in this era have not yet "evolved" to the kind that decades later. Your money is mine, and you should give me all my money.
It is still in the era of glorious labor.
During the Chinese New Year, there were a lot of people around the Bund. Zhou Chen took Wu Shanshan for a walk and passed the Yellow River Road.
In 1988, the Yellow River Road had not yet developed into the 1990s, and there were already some restaurants here, but they were not particularly prosperous and lively.
When passing this road, Zhou Chen still felt a little emotional. In the world of "Flower Flowers", he was also a frequent guest celebrity on Yellow River Road.
After walking for more than an hour, the two found a place to rest for a while, then continued to wander around and arrived at the Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street.
Although it was the first day of the Lunar New Year, the road to Nanjing was filled with crowds and extremely lively.
Wu Shanshan has been shopping with Zhou Chen in Nanjing Road in recent years. She is familiar with it. Women are born to like shopping, and she is no exception. So when she arrives at Nanjing Road, she turns to her to pull Zhou.
Chen has been shopping.
When Wu Shanshan sees beautiful clothes, she will ask Zhou Chen if she looks good. Zhou Chen responds positively every time, making her smile happy.
When he arrived at a store, Zhou Chen saw a very beautiful big red tweed dress, so he asked Wu Shanshan to give it a try.
"Sister, the clothes here are so beautiful, let's try them too."
"What are you trying? The clothes here are so expensive, and the cheapest ones are dozens of times. You can't afford them even if you try them, just take a look."
Hearing a familiar voice, Zhou Chen turned his head and looked over. He saw two girls talking a few meters away. Among them, the older one was Li Jia.
"Li Jia."
During this year's Spring Festival, Li Jia did not go back to her parents for the New Year, but stayed at her uncle's house in Shanghai for the New Year. After lunch today, she was pulled out by her cousin to go shopping together.
The things on Nanjing Road are very expensive, so she didn't want to come, but she was dragged by her cousin and walked around for more than an hour, but she just looked at them and bought nothing.
When she heard someone calling her, she looked over in surprise, but when she saw that it was Zhou Chen, her face suddenly changed.
"Zhuangtuxi, why are you here? Haven't you gone home for the New Year?"
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Li Jia was really surprised to see Zhou Chen in Shanghai. Normally, shouldn’t Zhou Chen go back to Suzhou to celebrate the festival at this time?
It has been two years since the last chance encounter with Zhou Chen in front of the Tongji University Library. They have never met again in two years. When they suddenly saw him, they found that Zhou Chen was still as handsome as two years ago. Her heart
It trembled a few times uncontrollably.
Although she hadn't seen Zhou Chen for so long, she had never forgotten Zhou Chen.
At the age when she was in love, she met an impeccable and excellent boy like Zhou Chen. This boy fits all her fantasies about her partner. With such a boy in front, how can she look at those far inferior to those guys?
Zhou Chen's boy.
"Before the New Year, hepatitis A was epidemic, so I didn't go home for the New Year. I stayed in Shanghai. I haven't seen each other for a long time. Are you okay?"
When Zhou Chen was watching, Li Jiaxin was very panicked. She forced herself to do not lose her composure. She stroked the broken hair on her forehead with her hands and whispered: "I'm fine. I heard that you stayed in school for graduate school. Congratulations."
"Thanks."
While speaking, Wu Shanshan, who had already changed her clothes, walked out of the changing room and walked straight towards Zhou Chen.
"Tusi, look, is it good?"
Wu Shanshan turned around in front of Zhou Chen. Halfway through, she suddenly saw the Li Jia sisters a few meters away, and her smile suddenly subsided.
Zhou Chen smiled and nodded and praised: "It looks good."
It looks really good. Wu Shanshan has a tall figure. She looks very festive and elegant when wearing this big red tweed dress.
Wu Shanshan, who received praise, smiled and turned to Li Jia.
"Hello, I remember you. You are Zhuang Tunan's classmate, and your name is Li Jia, right? My name is Wu Shanshan."
Seeing Wu Shanshan standing beside Zhou Chen and their intimate appearance, Li Jia almost couldn't hold back and felt extremely bitter in her heart.
"Hello, I'm glad to see you."
After saying that, she didn't want to stay for a moment and hurriedly said to Zhou Chen: "Zhuangtuxi, I have something to do, so I'll leave first."
Then he pulled up his cousin who was still confused and quickly escaped from here.
She ran a long way before stopping, and then she leaned against the wall as if she had no strength.
My cousin Li Lu looked at Li Jia nervously and asked, "Sister, what's wrong with you? Is that guy you like just now??"
She is only two years younger than Li Jia, and the two are considered to be of the same age, so when she saw Li Jia's performance just now, she probably guessed the reason.
Li Jia took a few deep breaths to calm herself down.
"No, it's just a pen pal, I haven't contacted it for several years."
But Li Lu didn't believe it at all. This was the first time she had seen Li Jia like this. Even if she had quarreled with her parents about Li Wen's settlement before, she did not let Li Jia run away in such a panic. Obviously, Li Jia
It must have a different relationship with the man just now.
"Is that so? I don't look like it, but the man just now was really handsome and elegant."
"Okay, Xiaolu, I feel a little uncomfortable. I want to go back. If you don't want to go back, just go around by yourself. I'll go back first."
Wu Shanshan did not buy clothes, but walked out of the store with Zhou Chen in his arms.
After walking for a while, she still couldn't help it.
"She seemed very sad just now, and I can tell that she likes you very much."
"I thought you could really help but not ask."
Zhou Chen showed a joke, which made Wu Shanshan roll her eyes: "You are my man, shouldn't I ask?"
"Of course, but nothing happened to her and I. At most, I had been a pen pal before. If there was anything, I would definitely tell you that I told you that I wouldn't lie to you."
Wu Shanshan pursed her lips and held Zhou Chen's hand harder.
"I'm just a little curious. Even if you really had something before, I won't care, because now we're together, I believe you, and I believe whatever you say."
Zhou Chen smiled and pointed her forehead. He didn't care that his woman had any thoughts. If he didn't ask about such a thing, then there would be a problem.
"If I believe anything, aren't you afraid that I will sell you?"
"If you are willing to give up, I can still count the money for you."
"Haha, you're right, I really can't bear to leave it."
…………
As winter goes and spring comes, Shanghai returns to prosperity after the New Year, and even becomes even more prosperous.
After the reform and opening up, Shanghai, as a first-tier city in China, has a development speed of absolutely the forefront in China, and the flow of people coming and going to Shanghai has also soared rapidly.
However, after the beginning of spring, another major event happened in China. The country relaxed prices and allowed the market to regulate itself. This also led to a rapid rise in various prices. For a moment, the situation of being worthless was also terrified and worried.
So I spent all my money, trying to spend all my money, exchange it for supplies and daily necessities, etc.
The panic has indeed caused a huge panic, but the consumption intensity has definitely reached its peak in recent years. You can see it when you walk on the street. No matter what the shops are sold, they are crowded with people and a long queue.
.
If you grab it, I will grab it too. Let's grab it together.
Zhou Chen didn't care much, but Huang Ling called him and asked him to prepare more things. Now he is in a hurry to buy things, and he is afraid that he can't buy things with money.
He really has no shortage of money now, because he has made his works abroad before. In more than a year, the book "Who moved my cheese" has sold more than 10 million copies, which is in recent years.
One of the best-selling books has brought him a lot of benefits. It is no longer as simple as tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, but millions.
The best-selling of this book also led to the best-selling of other books under his name, such as he wrote two hundred fairy tales, and several comic strips, etc. Although it is far from comparable to that of who touched me
The cheese', but it also created a lot of benefits for him.
Therefore, the rise in domestic prices has no impact on him. Even if it rises several times, it is nothing.
