Jiang Youwei said deliberately: "I didn't expect silver to be so valuable. I really didn't know it before. In fact, I still have some at home! I wonder if you still want to take it!?"
The employee smiled and said: "I'll definitely take it. Silver is a scarce metal in China. You can bring it as much as you have. Cash on delivery is guaranteed!"
"Okay, then I'll find time to come again! See you later!"
Jiang Youwei put the money from selling the metal into his pocket, waved his hand, and turned to leave.
This time Jiang Youwei got the idea, so he rushed home and traveled directly back in time! He bought a lot of scrap metal at the Xiangjiang Scrap Collection Station!
This time I bought several times more scrap metal, and the total price sold was as high as 536 yuan!
Including the more than 170 yuan received previously, it has reached 700 yuan, far exceeding the previously set target of 600 yuan.
This money is enough for myself to spend in the courtyard world, and I can buy three turns and one ring by the way!
With the money, Jiang Youwei went directly to the department store. The department store was also the first store in New Zealand well-known both at home and abroad. It was founded in 1955. At that time, it was not called a department store, but Wangfujing Department Store.
It was not until 1968 that the name was changed to Department Store, which is still used today.
Jiang Youwei didn't know the location of the department store when he first arrived, so he asked passers-by and even made a joke!
After many twists and turns, I figured out that the department store is not called the department store now, but the Wangfujing Department Store!
Despite such a small episode, when Jiang Youwei came to Wangfujing Department Store, he found that he had come to the right place! The various things here were really all-encompassing, making it dizzying to see.
In Jiang Youwei's consciousness, this era was an era of extreme material poverty, but when he saw the products here, he realized that was not the case at all!
Why do people in later generations feel that this era is extremely materially poor? The main reason is that you can't buy what you want with money alone. For example, Jiang Youwei wanted to buy a bicycle. When he came here, he realized that only money, no matter how much, did not have a bicycle ticket.
I can't buy a bicycle either.
For example, buying a watch requires a watch ticket.
For example, if you want to buy a radio, you need a radio ticket!
…
Jiang Youwei asked around the department store, and it seemed like there was no one who didn't want a ticket, which was very irritating!
Jiang Youwei silently decided that he would go to the mainland to collect banknotes from now on, and also get some various kinds of tickets by the way!
As for now, because he has no tickets, Jiang Youwei is not planning to buy all the three turns and one ring for the time being, and only plans to buy a bicycle first!
I already have an idea about bicycle tickets.
When he wanted to buy a bicycle just now, he got into trouble because he didn't have a bicycle ticket. However, the salesperson happened to have a bicycle ticket that he couldn't use, and suggested that he could sell it to Jiang Youwei for thirty yuan.
Jiang Youwei understood this and had already booked the bicycle ticket. He walked around the department store and returned to the bicycle counter. He spent 260 yuan on the latest permanent bicycle (including three bicycle tickets).
Ten yuan, the actual price of the bicycle is two hundred and thirty yuan)!
After the salesperson's kind reminder, Jiang Youwei realized that buying a bicycle was not enough. He also needed to take the bicycle and the purchase invoice to the nearby police station to go through the registration procedures.
When applying the license plate, you must also apply for a bicycle license. You must also use a hammer to hit the "steel seal" on the handlebars and tripod of the bicycle. The bicycle license plate number, bicycle license number and steel seal number are all the same set of numbers. Each one
Bicycle plate numbers are unique at least in Beijing.
Jiang Youwei went to the nearby police station, and through the relevant police science education, he learned that riding a bicycle on the road at that time was the same as driving a car on the road now. Only after applying for a license plate and license can you legally go on the road, but you don't need to take a driver's license test.
In addition, there is an advantage after installing a license plate and stamping on the bicycle. If the vehicle is lost, the chance of finding it will be greater.
The owner can report the crime to the police station. Once the police solve the case, the owner can collect it with his bicycle license, purchase invoice and certificate from his employer or neighborhood committee (he did not have an ID card at that time). After verification, it will be returned to the owner.
After listening to this, Jiang Youwei expressed that he really learned a lot!
Under the leadership of the relevant police officers, Jiang Youwei came to the department that specializes in license registration, and unexpectedly found that someone else was processing car licenses. After asking, he found out that at this time, the same department handled car and bicycle licenses, and the stamps for charging were all the same.
Yes, but due to cost reasons, the car license fee is 2 yuan and the bicycle license fee is 0.15 yuan.
According to police officers, the departments responsible for handling bicycle and car license plates will be separated in a few months.
Jiang Youwei asked: "Which department do you plan to go to?!"
The police officer said: "I must obey the assignment from my superiors. Of course, I think the bicycle department is better. The business is busy and the bonuses are quite good!"
Jiang Youwei really wanted to say that he would definitely be the most popular in the automobile department in the future, but thinking about it, it was only the 1960s. It would be the 1990s before automobiles could achieve rapid development. By that time, the police officer would have been around even if he had not retired.
!
All I can say is that they are very smart, at least this time they made the right choice!
After completing the formalities smoothly, Jiang Youwei paid 15 cents.
After spending such a small amount of money to get a license, Jiang Youwei was used to spending money lavishly in Xiangjiang, and suddenly he felt ridiculous!
"Comrade He, this is your bicycle license plate!"
The police officer brought over a large pile and placed it on the table.
Jiang Youwei was surprised: "So many?!"
"Yes, we are in love, I'll let you choose!"
"Okay, thank you Brother Wang!"
Jiang Youwei picked up the pile of license plates and found that they were all made of iron leather, and they were still thick to the touch! On the top were the two characters "京城", with a series of numbers below them, and below them were the words "Made by the Beijing Public Security Bureau"!
Jiang Youwei flipped through it and specifically chose a number of 1,688, which was considered auspicious!
There was no such thing in this era. When the police officer saw this number, he felt that Jiang Youwei had not chosen well. However, seeing that He Yuzhu had no intention of choosing again, he stopped trying to persuade him.
"Brother Wang, I'm sorry to trouble you this time!"
"You're welcome. Serving the people is what you should do! By the way, there is one more thing I forgot to tell you. If you buy a bicycle, you have to pay taxes every year. Remember to come and pay taxes before today next year. Two yuan a year.
Four!"
"..."
…
Jiang Youwei felt that he had learned a lot today. He didn't expect that bicycles also had to pay taxes!
With emotion in his heart, Jiang Youwei rode his brand new permanent bicycle back to the courtyard. The neighbors immediately gathered around when they saw it!
"Xiao Jiang, that's amazing, you bought a bicycle?!"
"Brother Jiang, this is a permanent, brand-name product. How much does it cost?!"
"Brother Jiang, I saw this bicycle in Wangfujing Department Store. It's the latest model and requires a bicycle ticket. You sailors are so stupid. Do you even issue bicycle tickets?!"
