Life 1984

Chapter 45 I'm Rich

After giving away the introduction fees from Director Lin and Liu Shitao, Li Yunhai earned 13 yuan, deposited 5 yuan in the four major banks, slashed Linzhi's backpack, and gave her 8 yuan in compensation.

Li Yunhai still has thirty-three thousand left in his hand.

This great success made Li Yunhai see the great potential of the second-hand copier market.

Earn two dollars by repairing a TV.

Make a hundred dollars by repairing a typewriter.

Make a thousand by repairing a copy machine.

Make two to five thousand by selling a used copier.

But compared to rebuilding old photocopiers, these businesses are child's play, and even a fool knows which line to choose.

According to incomplete statistics, in 1983, there were only more than 200 maintenance workers in China who could repair typewriters.These people do not have fixed stalls, but travel all over the country like salesmen, mainly repairing typewriters for major agencies, enterprises and institutions.

In this era, the skill of repairing typewriters was very popular and very profitable.

A certain old master once proudly recalled that that year, people who came to him to repair their typewriters lined up in a long line outside the hotel where he was staying.

As for printers and copiers, the number of people nationwide who can repair them is even rarer.

Li Yunhai was fortunate enough to be born in this turbulent era and possess the best office equipment maintenance technology. This was an opportunity given to him by God to make a fortune.

He will definitely ride on the wind and clouds, rise up in the rolling torrent, grow wildly, and build a Wenyin empire that dominates the world.

That night, Li Yunhai returned to the store and saw that the store door was open and the light bulb was on, and he knew that Shen Xiulan was here.

Shen Xiulan was cleaning the room. When she saw him coming back, she smiled sweetly and said, "Yunhai, our leader praised me again! My professional level is No. 1 in the unit!"

With Li Yunhai teaching her, her computer operation skills improved by leaps and bounds, and she was proficient in operating printers and copiers, and she soon became the backbone of the business.

Li Yunhai had nothing to do tonight, so he smiled and said, "Shall we go watch a movie?"

Shen Xiulan's pretty face showed a coquettish blush: "Okay! The movie "Under the Bridge" starring Gong Xue is very good. Let's just watch this movie, okay?"

These days, for young couples in love, watching a movie together at night is the best date.

Jiuru Lane is not far from Zhongshan Road, and the two of them arrived quickly on bicycles.

Li Yunhai bought a movie ticket, and the movie would not start in half an hour.

He and Shen Xiulan bought two bottles of ice-cold soda, one each, and then went shopping nearby.

Before 2000, Wuyi Road and Zhongshan Road were definitely the most prosperous business districts in Xizhou.

Zhongshan Road is home to countless shops and buildings that are the best in Xizhou and of course the best in the province.

The Youth Palace was the original governor's office and the once-famous governor's office.

The department store was an exhibition hall of domestic products before liberation.

How many beautiful memories has the Lushan Photo Studio left for Xizhou people?

How much joy did those old movies shown in the Red Theater bring to the public?

The two came to the triangular garden opposite the department store.

Triangle Garden was the earliest fashion distribution center in Xizhou. At that time, there was no popular Golden Apple Market!
Li Yunhai also visited here when he was studying, but he didn't dare to buy clothes here because they were too expensive.

A pair of pants sells for 30 yuan, and a down jacket sells for 135 yuan!
It looks good, but it’s so expensive!
Shen Xiulan took a fancy to a pair of culottes.

When asked about the price, the stall owner shouted 45 yuan.

Shen Xiulan shook her head repeatedly: "It's too expensive, it costs me a month's salary!"

Li Yunhai saw that the culottes were similar to Lin Zhi's, except that the colors were different, so he said, "If you like it, buy it! Now that you have a bicycle, it is more convenient to wear culottes."

Shen Xiulan touched the material of the skirt and said, "It's good, but it's too expensive. For 10 yuan, I can still consider it."

The stall owner smiled and said: "Mei Dong, this is the most fashionable skirt now. Look at the fabric and the feel. It is cool and beautiful to wear. You have such a good figure, it will definitely look good in it. If you want it sincerely, I will give it to you for 40. If I don’t earn you a penny, just treat it as bringing you one.”

Shen Xiulan still thought it was expensive. It was so expensive that she didn't even dare to pay back the price. If she didn't buy it after paying the price, she would be laughed at.

Li Yunhai also saw such culottes at the Huacheng Lighting Night Market. The price there was 30 yuan. Xizhou's fashions were all purchased from Huacheng. Giving the other party a profit of five yuan should be about the same, so he made a counteroffer. Said: "35 yuan! This kind of culottes only sells for 30 yuan in Huacheng. It must be cheaper for you to get the goods."

The stall owner exclaimed, looked at Li Yunhai and said with a smile: "Brother Man, you are very knowledgeable! Since you are an expert, I will sell it to you for 35 yuan." Shen Xiulan was taken aback and pulled Li Yunhai's hand. Said: "It's too expensive! I don't want it!"

Li Yunhai smiled slightly: "I bought it for you."

He took out the money, counted out 35 yuan, and handed it to the stall owner.

The stall owner happily took the money, quickly picked up a new skirt, packed it in a paper bag, and handed it to Shen Xiulan: "This is a one-size-fits-all, elastic, you can definitely wear it. Sister, your boyfriend is right You are so kind!"

Shen Xiulan did not reach out to take the bag. She pouted unhappily and said to Li Yunhai: "Retreat! I don't want it! It's too expensive! I can't afford it."

Li Yunhai whispered in her ear: "I have money. I told you that I can support you with my craftsmanship!"

He took the bag and pulled Shen Xiulan away: "Okay! Let's go watch a movie!"

Shen Xiulan won't leave.

Li Yunhai pulled her forward, and she pushed back.

"Yunhai, 35 yuan can buy several sets of clothes! This skirt is really too expensive."

"It's expensive for what it is! You're comfortable and look good! I'm willing to spend money on you."

Shen Xiulan stopped and said: "Yunhai, I found a problem. You don't listen to me now! Last time you went to my house, you said you would listen to me in the future! Humph! You have changed so quickly!"

Li Yunhai chuckled and said: "I listen to you about my matters; I also listen to you about our matters. But, you have to listen to me about your matters. Do you think this is fair? This dress is bought for you, it’s your business, so you have to listen to me on this matter. Right?”

"Ah?" Shen Xiulan's bright eyes kept blinking, bright and clear, shining like stars under the light.

She lightly stamped her foot: "Li Yunhai, you are unreasonable! It's your money you spent, and I have to take care of this matter!"

Immediately, she waved her hands coquettishly: "It's really too expensive! I have never worn such expensive clothes in my whole life. Let me tell you, if you men buy a few expensive clothes, that's Yes, you have to support your appearance when you go out. The styles of men's clothing also change little, and one piece of clothing can be worn for several years. We women's clothes come out with new styles every year, and there are many styles, so just buy ordinary ones! Do you understand? "

Li Yunhai followed her temper and smiled: "Okay, okay, I understand. From now on, I will only buy you the cheapest ones, okay? We come to Triangle Garden several times a year. No matter what new clothes are out, I will buy them." You buy it! I will dress you up as the most beautiful girl in Xizhou!"

Shen Xiulan looked at his disgusting appearance, but she couldn't dislike him, so she couldn't help but laugh.

Between her frown and smile, it seemed as if her aura was overflowing.

Most beauties are either gentle and beautiful, or charming and charming, but Shen Xiulan is very beautiful, but also has a certain charm.

The infatuated gaze she looked at Li Yunhai was filled with deep charm, like shy petals, clear and graceful, and her bright eyes were like the bright moon, shining like water.

When passing by an area where the street lights were not very bright, Li Yunhai boldly stretched out his hand and gently placed it on Shen Xiulan's soft waist.

Shen Xiulan pursed her lips and smiled, leaned closer to him, and rested her head on his strong shoulder full of attachment.

Li Yunhai tightened his hand on her waist, lowered his head, and kissed her gently on her shampoo-scented hair.

The evening breeze blew gently. It was a beautiful and pleasant night with a moonlight like water. The sky was dotted with stars, like bright diamonds, scattered in the dark blue sky.

Summer nights get dark very late. It's almost eight o'clock, and the last ray of the setting sun has just been wiped out. The night is like a velvet curtain in a theater, slowly falling.

The love story between Li Yunhai and Shen Xiulan has just begun.

They walked to the entrance of the Red Theater and happened to see Lin Zhi and Lin Xin.

Lin Zhi looked at Shen Xiulan, who looked happy, and bit her lip gently.

Lin Xin asked in surprise: "Sister, does Li Yunhai have a girlfriend?"

Lin Zhi hummed: "Yes! I knew it a long time ago!"

Lin Xin whispered: "Then you still like him?"

Lin Zhi snorted: "Who said I like him? He and I are just ordinary friends!"

Li Yunhai and Shen Xiulan came over.

Shen Xiulan smiled brightly and said, "Hello Lin Zhi!"

Lin Zhi smiled: "Hello, Shen Xiulan."

The Lin sisters also came to watch a movie, and they also watched "Under the Bridge."

The four of them entered the cinema together, found seats in the back row, and sat together.
