Chapter 71 Bicycles

After Cui Dake cooked some breakfast at will, he went to Liang Ladi's house to visit Damao and the others, gave them five grain bricks, gave them some instructions, and went to the vegetable market to buy some seasonings and ingredients.

Don't throw away your job. Although Liu Feng said that he doesn't need to stay in the cafeteria every day, the whole atmosphere now is that labor is honorable. A person can replace you, such as Nanyi.

As long as this Nanyi comes out, with his cooking skills, he can definitely replace part of his status.

Cui Dake didn't want to be outspoken, kneaded cornmeal, steamed steamed buns, and then made big pot dishes.

He is diligent and conscientious, and in his spare time, he also takes the initiative to teach Liu Huanggan and Yang Xiaodong's cooking skills to win people's hearts.

Of course, the core was not handed in, and Cui Dake, who did not see chili and other seasonings, only bought two days’ worth, which was learned from He Yuzhu in the plot.

The recipe of a dish has the same process, but the seasoning and heat used are different, so you can’t make the taste that Cui Dake made. Cui Dake is really paying attention, but he also left a hand. The choice of seasoning has never been different. Not to mention the magical effect of Lingquan water.

After cooking, Cui Dake prepared meals for the workers at the window.

After taking a break at noon, I started preparing dinner again.

In this way, Cui Dake, who had no time to spare all day, arranged the kitchen sanitation and other follow-up issues after preparing the evening meal, and prepared to buy the bicycle back.

Thinking of the tight supply of supplies, and the general market estimated that the bicycles would be sold out as soon as they arrived, Cui Dake decided to go to the department store on Wangfujing Street to have a look.

In this era, department stores have unique treatment: "The whole country supports the capital, and the capital gives priority to buildings."

At that time, the department store was the only retail enterprise in Sijiu City that was an exception to enjoy the right to purchase goods nationwide, and at the same time enjoy the treatment of secondary wholesale stations. restock.

The department store building is the largest store in Sijiu City. It is twice as large as the combined area of ​​the seven department stores on East Chang'an Street, Wangfujing Street, and Donghuamen Street. It can accommodate tens of thousands of customers and a thousand salespeople at the same time.

Because of this, there is a popular saying in Sijiucheng: "If you can't buy things in department stores, don't go anywhere."

After taking the bus for more than half an hour, Cui Dake came to the department store.

Now it's time to get off work, and there are people coming and going here, like going to a market in the country.

Many counters in the mall have set up guardrails, and many people are queuing.

It was also the first time for Cui Dake to come to a department store. Seeing the freshness, he decided not to buy a bicycle and wanted to go shopping first.

It was really an eye-opener. Every family outside was poor in supplies. Unexpectedly, there are so many commodities here.

Most of the salespersons are women, with a confident glow on their faces.

Can you not be confident? In this day and age, being a salesperson is one of the most sought-after professions. Not only is the salary high, but the benefits are also very good.

And because there is a shortage of supplies outside, they can be the first to know what goods are coming, and they can inform acquaintances of the shortage of goods. Some scarce goods are often filled by people who know in advance before they are on the shelves.

Cui Dake walked around and came to a place selling bicycles.

The most popular bicycles at present are permanent and phoenix.

Without further ado, Cui Dake paid a full 180 yuan and a bicycle ticket, and bought a permanent brand Erba Dagong, which is the most popular style at present. The exhibited bicycles went to the police station to have their stamps stamped.

Today's bicycles, just like cars in later generations have license plates, have to go to the police station to register and file, and they have to pay a filing fee of two yuan a year.

When they came to the police station, the police officers tapped a steel stamp on the bicycle. There was a number on the stamp. Everyone's information was bound to this number.

Therefore, nowadays bicycles are rarely stolen, and the wheels are removed at most, which is not very easy to sell.

On the way back, Cui Dake also slowly enjoyed the thrill of the first car ride.

When he was about to reach his yard, it was almost time to get off work, and he saw workers leaving get off work one after another along the way.

As soon as Cui Dake reached the alley, he started ringing the bell.

On the one hand, I am afraid of bumping into others, and on the other hand, I am a little bit cautious about showing off.

The source of our car tickets is well-founded, and we are not afraid of people's investigation.

Facing the dazzling and jealous eyes all the way, Cui Dake came to the gate of his courtyard, Yan Bugui walked in front, just passing Cui Dake's courtyard.

At this time, Yan Bugui had not yet become the third master of the courtyard opposite.

The uncle is Yi Zhonghai, one of the only two eighth-level workers in the rolling mill, and he is highly valued by the mill.

The second uncle was originally Xu Fugui, Xu Damao's father, but because he gave up his position, he moved to another place, and now his influence in the courtyard has been greatly reduced.

The third master was originally He Yuzhu's father, He Daqing, but because he went to Baocheng, he is now in name only.

Cui Dake rang the bell as a prank.

Jingle Bell……

"Oh, who, you scared me..."

Yan Bugui turned around and looked back, looking at the bicycle under Cui Dake, he couldn't help being stunned.

Then he walked over excitedly, touched the faucet of the car with envy and care.

"Ah, Cui Dake, I know you, the newly hired chef in the mechanic shop, is this the bicycle you just bought?"

"Oh, permanent brand, what a good brand!"

Now there is no difference between the permanent and Phoenix brands.

Of course Cui Dake didn't distinguish anything from him, seeing Yan Bugui's excited look made him feel very beautiful.

"Okay, Mr. Yan, I'll move the car in first. If you want to see it, you can come to our courtyard and take a look."

"Good Le!"

"Cui Dake, be careful, don't knock on it. The threshold of this courtyard is high, I will help you."

Yan Bugui was very enthusiastic, as if it was his own bicycle.

Like taking care of a newborn baby, the two of them guarded the bicycle and came to Cui Dake's door.

Cui Dake also showed off, rang the bell again, and said to Yan Bugui:

"Teacher Yan, look how crisp the ringtone is."

As soon as the bell rang, the people in the courtyard seemed to have heard the rallying call, and rushed over, including many people from the opposite courtyard.

"Tsk tsk, the standard [-] strokes!"

"Cui Dake, is this your new one?"

"how much is it?"

"Where did you buy it?"

"Where else can I buy this, it must be the department store on Wangfujing Street, there are no other places."

"This is a permanent card, very strong."

"Who says it's not? It can be used for a few more years."

"This is the first bicycle in a courtyard nearby!"

"This Cui Dake is capable."

"It's just a broken bicycle, what's so great about it!"

Xu Damao also just came back, and when he saw so many people surrounded by the opposite party, he also sneaked in to watch the excitement.

After listening to Cui Dake's words a few days ago, I felt trembling and cautious.

Left to inquire, right to inquire, the price paid a lot, indeed some displeased him Xu Damao made a small report behind his back.

I was in a bad mood at first, but when I got in, I saw everyone flattering Cui Dake.

For him, he can buy a bicycle by gritting his teeth, but because of the cost of the past few days, it will take a while to buy it.

Thinking in his heart, Xu Damao felt a little aggrieved.

The uncle and Liu Haizhong also came to watch the excitement, but they were not ashamed to compete with young people and women. Now that they heard Xu Damao's voice, they also walked into the middle of the crowd.

Such a rare thing as a bicycle, they have seen people riding it on the street, who doesn't care about it!

At this time, none of them turned to Xu Damao.

"Da Mao, don't run on people if you don't have a car yourself! If you are capable, you can buy one and we will surely praise you. Since you don't have one now, just be honest!"

As soon as Yan Bugui opened his mouth, Xu Damao was speechless.

"Hey, Brother Dake, I'm not saying that your bicycle is not good. I'm targeting Yan Bugui. I said Yan Bugui. This is not a school, and I'm not your student. You still teach me and say By the way, why didn't you buy a bicycle, and you just look at other people's bicycles here."

Following Yan Bugui's words, Xu Damao noticed that Cui Dake's gaze was also looking at him. He didn't want to offend Cui Dake who had just reported to him, but he began to sarcasticly sarcasm Yan Bugui.

"Hey, what are you talking about, Xu Damao? No big or small, even if you don't call me Teacher Yan, you don't know how to call me Uncle Yan? I'm of the same generation as your father."

"I still call you Uncle Yan, just wait, my dad is the second uncle in the courtyard, what are you, Yan Pugui, worthy of me calling you Uncle?"

"Xu Damao, you..."

At this time, Liu Haizhong finally entered the center position. He was also very curious about the bicycle and touched the back seat.

Liu Haizhong is very fascinated by being an official, but he is not even a team leader in the rolling mill. He has always coveted the position of the second uncle in the courtyard and wanted to make his own voice. He coughed twice, interrupting Yan Bugui and Xu Damao's quarrel:
"I said stop arguing, both of you. Let me say a few words. Everyone should look up to Cui Dake. Look at Cui Dake, who is active in his work and has become the canteen team leader of the machine repair factory at a young age. Now I was the first to buy a bicycle, everyone should work hard, and strive to buy a bicycle next year, what's the point of arguing here?"

Xu Damao is a loose-mouthed master, and he is usually not used to seeing this bangs, so he couldn't help but say:

"Liu Haizhong, what are you? Those who are still summarizing this and persuading that, those who don't know would think you are a leading cadre from somewhere."

It is indeed Liu Haizhong's dream to become a leader, and he suddenly became unhappy, and turned his head and said to Yi Zhonghai who also squeezed in:

"Old Yi, listen to what Xu Damao said. Is it wrong for me to advise everyone to work harder? Look at what kind of son Xu Fugui taught. He has no quality at all. I suggest that our compound hold a meeting and dismiss Xu Damao. His father Xu Fugui's second uncle status, choose a virtuous person to take on the position."

When Yan Bugui heard this, his heart moved. This Liu Haizhong was obviously eager to take the position of the second uncle, so he could do it too...

 It's so miserable, the system didn't prompt when it was harmonized.
