After Li Yunhai asked the two customers to sit down, he called Wang Lili and Zhang Jie to bring them tea.

Those two people were very high-spirited, especially the woman. As soon as she sat down, she crossed her legs, held her orchid fingers, pointed in the air, and said with disdain: "What are you selling here? Don't look at the appearance. It’s so big and there are so many goods on display, but they are all worthless things! The models are also outdated and old gadgets!”

Li Yunhai had to admit that what this woman said made some sense, and said with a smile: "Comrade, what we sell are second-hand goods, so the models are older. What do you need?"

The woman pointed her hand towards the man beside her.

The man understood, took out a beautifully made business card and handed it to Li Yunhai, smiling and saying, "This is our manager Zhao's business card."

Li Yunhai took it and saw that it was the manager of Wuhu Office Equipment Store in Zhucheng. His name was Zhao Yan!

"Manager Zhao." Li Yunhai said with a smile, "Do you have any needs when you come here?"

Zhao Yan wore heavy makeup on her face, which was rare at the time. She had a scornful expression on her face: "Of course I want to cooperate with you. I see that your products are very cheap, so I want to buy from you." Buy some goods in the store and sell them back."

Li Yunhai thought to himself, so you want to get goods from me. In order to suppress my price, are you deliberately devaluing my goods?

This is also possible.

In the 80s, information was limited and there were many people doing business, but not everyone could find the original purchase channels.

Li Yunhai had experience in his previous life, relied on intuition, bravely ventured into the Flower City, and with some good luck, he found Shi Wentao's company in the Tianhe area.

He chuckled and said: "This is a good thing. I just don't know what kind of goods you want to buy? Our store has Ricoh copiers and Canon copiers, as well as IBM computers."

Zhao Yan groaned: "Comrade, why do you only sell these second-hand things? No newer products?"

Li Yunhai immediately introduced his products to them, saying that although these were second-hand goods, they were definitely considered mainstream configurations in today's domestic market, and compared with the latest products on the market, they were not inferior.

Zhao Yan smacked her lips and said, "I want to get a batch of the latest models. Do you have them? Money is not an issue!"

Li Yunhai smiled awkwardly: "I'm sorry, we don't have it here. Why don't you go to another place and have a look?"

Zhao Yan shook her head: "Kewen and Wuyiwen are too expensive. What I want is the wholesale price! And I see that your store is called Sihai, and my store is called Wuhu. Look, our two stores, How fateful? Isn’t it?”

Li Yunhai smiled and said yes, but unfortunately I really don’t have the goods now.

Zhao Yan stood up, took two steps, and said: "Let's do this. If you have the goods, you can contact me again. We are mainly engaged in military industry, construction industry, and government agencies. It is not easy to sell second-hand things. You When new goods are available, please call me and I will come again."

Li Yunhai said yes.

Zhao Yan twisted her butt and left with the man.

Zhang Jie pursed her lips and said with a smile: "This woman is dressed up to look like a monster!"

Li Yunhai said leisurely: "This is a typhoon in Hong Kong! You can't laugh at your customers! Even though it's funny, you have to hold it in!"

Zhang Jie and Wang Lili burst into laughter.

Li Yunhai couldn't help but laugh a few times and said, "You guys watch the store while I go out."

Wang Lili and Zhang Jie smiled and agreed: "Okay, Manager Li."

Li Yunhai rode a motorcycle to the Zhongshan Road Department Store.

He promised Lin Zhi to buy a tape recorder.

The development of radio equipment in our country is relatively good and relatively fast.

Especially for radio cassette players, there are many brands and models on the market.

In the 80s, the production of radio cassette players nationwide exceeded sales, and the inventory backlog was serious.Products from many factories are in a state of slow sales.

Radio cassette players were high-end audio equipment at the time, and most of the buyers were young people in urban areas. The market was almost saturated, with 15 cassette players for every [-] households in Xizhou City.

Users' needs for radio cassette players have developed in two extremes: some like multi-function, multi-speaker, FM and AM stereo; others want low-end radio cassette players that cost less than 100 yuan, mainly for learning foreign languages.

Therefore, there is no need to purchase tickets with tickets for cassette players sold in department stores.

Li Yunhai was dazzled when he saw the dazzling array of cassette recorder products on the counter.

The prices of radio cassette players also range from high to low, some cost more than 200 yuan, some cost more than 500 yuan, some cost 800 yuan, and some cost 2000 yuan!
The teller asked: "Comrade, which one do you want to buy?"

Li Yunhai asked which one is better?

The teller pointed to the Yanwu brand cassette recorder: "Of course this one is the best. There are advertisements on TV every day! Haven't you seen it? The one that sings and dances at the same time, Yan Wu, Yan Wu, every song comes one after another. Affection!"

Li Yunhai heard what she said was interesting and smiled: "I've heard of it. It's a very festive advertisement."

However, when Li Yunhai buys electronic products, he doesn't just buy them because of the advertisements. He knows that the quality of radio cassette players in this era varies. Many products from small factories are easy to buy but difficult to repair.

So he asked: "Are there any cassette players produced by old manufacturers?"

The teller introduced him to a Planet radio tape recorder: "Comrade, this is produced by Changwu Factory. It sells very well and the price is moderate, 800 yuan per unit."

She pointed to another model: "This is from Nanjing Radio Factory, Panda brand, an old brand."

"This is a Shanghai brand, the model is L-2400. It is produced by Shanghai Recording Equipment Factory. It is also an old brand."

"Look at these two models. This is the Red Light brand produced by Shanghai Radio Factory No. [-], a real old brand. This is the Mido brand produced by Shanghai Radio Factory No. [-]. The quality is very good."

"And this, this is the Peony brand from Beijin Radio Factory."

There are also the Haiyan brand from Shanghai 101 Factory, the Peacock brand from Jiangnan Radio Factory, the Chunlei brand from Shangwu No. [-] Factory, and the Reed Flute brand from the state-owned Changhai Machinery Factory.

The more Li Yunhai saw, the more he didn't know how to choose.

The teller saw his confusion and said with a smile: "Comrade, the quality of the cassette recorders is actually very good. I suggest you buy the Yanwu brand. This one is really in short supply. You came at the right time today. We have just received a batch. New product. Young people love to buy this, it’s trendy!”

Li Yunhai laughed and said, "Okay, just buy this! It's so fancy and looks good!"

The teller chuckled and said: "This one has light effects. At night, the lights flash up, and it is as beautiful as a dance hall. Young people bought it and took it to the park to play and dance while singing!"

Li Yunhai asked her to help try the machine.

This cassette recorder can be regarded as an Internet celebrity machine in this era. If the advertising is good, the sales will increase.

The appearance of the machine also captures the consumption concepts of young people. It is very fashionable and the lighting is very interesting. It is indeed better than others.

Li Yunhai bought a dozen more batteries, bought a dozen boxes of tapes, and left holding the big box.

He went back to the store, plugged in the cassette player, and inserted the tape.

Beautiful music sounded in the store.

Liu Yan, Zhang Jie and Wang Lili gathered around, clapped their hands happily and said with a smile: "Okay, there is music to listen to!"

Zhang Jie smiled and asked: "Manager Li, did you put this in the store?"

Li Yunhai thought to himself that it would be a good thing to have a radio cassette player in the store, as it would not make it too boring. Many stores in the future would play some songs to liven up the atmosphere!Then he smiled and said, "Okay, just put it in the store! You can also play music and listen to it when you have nothing to do."

Several women jumped up happily.Li Yunhai came to the department store again.

The teller saw him coming back and asked, "Comrade, is there something wrong with the cassette player?"

Li Yunhai smiled and said: "No problem, I want to buy another one."

The teller sighed: "Are you buying this for your parents?"

"No."

"You still buy the Yanwu brand?"

“Just buy this brand, it’s loud!”

"Okay! Comrade, you are so rich. What do you do?"

"I'm self-employed."

"Self-employed people are really making money now. The people who come to buy our cassette players recently are all self-employed, and they are all expensive."

Li Yunhai smiled: "Would you like to work as a self-employed person in the sea?"

The teller chuckled and said, "I don't want to do that. This is a good job where I can earn national food!"

Li Yunhai laughed out loud.

He bought a better one for 1580 yuan.

Then I went to the tape counter and bought more tapes, all kinds of tapes.

He knew that Lin Zhi liked to listen to music. Whether it was popular or classic old songs, he bought them all. Of course, dance music was also indispensable.

Li Yunhai put the newly purchased goods at home.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, he rode his bicycle to the provincial family compound and waited for Lin Zhi downstairs at Lin Zhi's house.

As soon as he stopped the car, he saw Tang Yuxia walking over with a bag of fruit.

"Hello, aunt!" Li Yunhai shouted slightly embarrassed.

Tang Yuxia exclaimed: "Li Yunhai, what are you doing?"

"Auntie, I'm waiting for Lin Zhi." Li Yunhai answered truthfully.

Tang Yuxia stopped: "Why don't you go upstairs?"

At this time, Lin Zhi ran downstairs happily and shouted: "Li Yunhai! I knew you were coming!"

She suddenly saw her mother and smiled: "Mom!"

Tang Yuxia responded and asked, "What are you going to do?"

Lin Zhi flashed her pretty eyes and said with a smile: "Of course I'm at work! Li Yunhai is picking me up to go to work!"

Tang Yuxia pointed to her bicycle: "Don't you have a car?"

Lin Zhi raised her chin proudly: "It's so comfortable to ride a motorcycle!"

Someone passed by downstairs, but Tang Yuxia didn't say much. She broke off two banana halves and put them in her daughter's hands. Then she broke off two halves and handed them to Li Yunhai: "You can eat it too."

Li Yunhai said thank you, aunt.

Lin Zhi got on the motorcycle and waved to her mother: "Mom, we're leaving! Goodbye!"

Li Yunhai said goodbye to his aunt, started the car, and drove slowly out of the community.

Tang Yuxia looked at their backs, shook her head, and went upstairs.

Lin Zhenbang is getting ready for work and is changing his shoes.

Tang Yuxia entered the house and said to her husband: "Xiao Zhi and Li Yunhai are out."

Lin Zhenbang was startled and asked, "Didn't Xiaozhi just go out to work?"

Tang Yuxia snorted: "She said she was at work, but I guess she wasn't! This girl has a lot of evil ideas! Pretend I don't know!"

Lin Zhenbang laughed and said: "Didn't you just follow your whim? When you were young, you were also a ghost. Do you still remember? Your parents didn't agree with us on our first date, so you climbed down from the window! I’m holding you down there.”

Thinking of the past, Tang Yuxia couldn't help but smile softly: "Oh, that's not true! At that time, I just wanted to see you once, and even the gods couldn't stop me!"

Lin Zhenbang straightened his clothes and said: "That's right. If young people fall in love, even gods can't stop it! What's more, you and I are just ordinary people? How to stop it? Even if you lock your daughter at home, she will He will jump out of the window."

Tang Yuxia sat on the sofa, thought for a while, and said, "Zhenbang, do we really not care about this? What if they develop a relationship? What should we do?"

Lin Zhenbang asked: "Have you been to Li Yunhai's new store?"

Tang Yuxia said no, what's wrong?
Lin Zhenbang said you should go and have a look!I went to the Provincial Agricultural Machinery Bureau to inspect work that day and saw his store. It was very good!Not to mention Xizhou, even in the whole country, it is one of the best!
Tang Yuxia was slightly surprised: "Is it better than a department store?"

Lin Zhenbang smiled softly: "There is no comparison! Do you think eggs are delicious? Or are rocks hard? These are not two same types of things at all, how can they be compared?"

Tang Yuxia said, even if he is somewhat promising, he is still self-employed!Are you willing to let Xiaozhi marry him?
Lin Zhenbang pointed at his wife: "It's time to change your ideas. In our province, an individual workers' association will be established soon, consisting of individual workers from individual industrial and commercial households and township partnerships. The status of self-employed individuals will be obtained A huge improvement.”

Tang Yuxia just shook her head: "Why do I think self-employed people are unreliable? What if this policy changes at any time?"

Lin Zhenbang picked up the briefcase and said: "You are worrying too much. I think about Xiaozhi's matter, the child is still young now, let's talk about it in two years! The relationship between her and Li Yunhai is a closer friendship. Even if It’s love, and it’s also a beautiful thing. We should encourage and guide her instead of twisting and whipping her with brute force! Otherwise, it will cause her indelible lifelong trauma!”

Tang Yuxia sighed: "Why don't I know this truth? That's why I have no clear objection. Well, I have my own opinion on this matter."

In the afternoon, Tang Yuxia came to the unit, met Shen Xiulan, and said, "Xiao Shen, come to my office."

Shen Xiulan agreed and followed Tang Yuxia to the office without thinking too much.

Tang Yuxia looked at her and asked with a smile: "Xiao Shen, how is your relationship with Li Yunhai developing?"

Shen Xiulan thought they were talking about work, but she didn't expect to talk about this!

She blushed with embarrassment, lowered her head and fiddled with her clothes, her voice stuck in her throat, and said weakly: "That's it. Bureau Tang, does the unit still care about our private affairs? I didn't delay my work either!"

Tang Yuxia waved her hand and said with a smile: "Don't get me wrong, I don't want to interfere with your affairs. I just care about you. I heard that you two broke up some time ago? Are you and him really separated? Also, where have you and Li Yunhai come to? Have you ever had a relationship? - Do you understand what I mean? Of course, this is your private matter. If you don't want to talk about it, forget it. I am your leader, and I just want to care about you."

Shen Xiulan's pretty face was as red as rouge.

Even her parents never asked her such a question so bluntly!

How could an 18-year-old girl have the nerve to answer such a question?

But Tang Yuxia is the leader of the bureau. Since people asked this question, it would be too rude for her not to answer, not to mention that they really care about her!
Shen Xiulan pursed her lips and lowered her head shyly, not knowing how to answer for a while.
