Life 1984

Chapter 98 I miss you!

The original intention of asking for luck is to seek good luck and gain. To put it bluntly, it is to ask for money.

On the ground in Xizhou, there is a group of people who watch every house on the street holding a happy event or opening its store. They come to meet a few people, sit inside, ask for red envelopes, and refuse to leave even if they give less.

Li Yunhai drank the soda, looked at the few people, and pondered slightly. It was obvious that these people were rogues on the street, and they obviously wanted to come to the store to enjoy the autumn breeze!

He didn't come forward to argue, drank the soda, returned the soda bottle, and rode away.

Li Yunhai bought some fruit snacks at the night market street, bought a pack of cigarettes, and a bottle of wine, and came to a community.

Li Yunhai knocked on one of the doors.

He didn't know the family, but he had gone to this house to repair the TV.

The door opened, and a pretty and upright young woman stood at the door. She still remembered Li Yunhai and said with a smile, "Comrade Li, why are you here?"

Li Yunhai had a sweet mouth and was good at talking. He said with a smile: "Sister Police, I helped repair your TV set last time. I'm going to pay you a visit. I don't know if it works? If the same problem occurs, you can come over. Come to me and I will provide free warranty."

The policewoman giggled and said, "You are too responsible. The TV works very well and there is nothing wrong with it. Please come in!"

Li Yunhai entered the door and saw that there was no one else in her house, so he asked, "Where is your family?"

The policewoman walked to the tea table, turned over a glass teacup, put a handful of tea leaves in, picked up the water bottle and poured water, and said: "You sit down. My parents went for a walk, and my brother and his girlfriend went to watch a movie. Now. I’m the only one with no activities. I’m watching TV alone at home! Come, drink tea.”

Li Yunhai took the cup, said thank you, put the cup on the table, took out an invitation, handed it to the policewoman, and said: "My store has been moved and will open tomorrow. Is there anything you need to repair in the future?" , just come to me. Tomorrow is Sunday, sister, if you are free, please come over and guide our work, right?"

The policewoman took it and took a look and said with a smile: "You have moved to the Agricultural Machinery Bureau Building. That is a good place."

Li Yunhai picked up the cup and drank tea and said: "There is something I want to ask my sister. I have applied for my business license for a month and there is still no movement? Didn't the province issue a document saying that it will simplify the approval procedures? ?”

The policewoman sat down next to him, brushed her hair at the temples with her hands, and said in deep thought: "This matter is under the jurisdiction of the Industrial and Commercial Administration, and I don't know. Well, that's good. I'll ask a friend to ask."

Li Yunhai smiled and said: "Sister, my shop will open tomorrow, but the business license has not been issued. Are you okay? No one will come to check on me, right?"

The policewoman gently shook her hand: "No. By the way, after you apply for a business license, you must also apply for a tax certificate."

Li Yunhai asked what is the threshold for personal income tax?

The female police officer said that according to relevant national regulations, personal income tax has been levied since 1980, and the starting point for personal income tax this year is 800 yuan.If your income does not reach this amount, you do not have to pay tax.

She thought for a while and said, "By the way, you are self-employed and you have to pay value-added tax."

Li Yunhai asked how much the value-added tax was?

The female police officer said that self-employed individuals are generally small-scale taxpayers of value-added tax, and the tax payment method is determined by the tax.Since self-employed individuals have different business scales and specific industries, different turnovers, and different monthly incomes, the taxes they need to pay will also be different. For specific circumstances, after the business license is obtained, you can take the license to the tax bureau. Go and ask, you will pay the monthly payment as much as they set.

Li Yunhai said thank you: "Sister, you are such a good person. What should I call you?"

The policewoman pursed her lips and smiled: "My name is Chen Jing."

"Sister Chen, thank you so much. Could you please take the time to come to my store tomorrow to provide guidance on the work? They are all a group of young people. Let's have a dinner together." Li Yunhai, intentionally or unintentionally, brought Lin Zhi and Lin Zhi together. It was revealed that Xin, Liu Jie and others came to attend the luncheon.

Chen Jing said calmly and generously: "Okay, if I am free tomorrow, I will go there."

Li Yunhai drank tea and stood up to say goodbye.

Chen Jing pointed to the gifts on the table and said with a smile, "You forgot something."

Li Yunhai said that I gave this to Sister Chen. If you come to congratulate me on my opening tomorrow, you won’t come empty-handed. I can’t earn your red envelope money, right?So this is called reciprocity.

Chen Jing chuckled and said, "You are a repairman, and it is not easy to make a few bucks. Why bother giving gifts? Take it back quickly!"

Li Yunhai waved his hand: "Sister Chen, we will see you tomorrow!"

After saying that, he strode away.Chen Jing looked at his tall back, smiled and shook her head: "This Comrade Li! He is so polite! He also has a sweet mouth and he really knows how to talk."

There was a dormitory next to the store, and Peng Dianzi moved into the men's dormitory and no longer lived with Li Yunhai.

Li Yunhai cleaned the rented room and treated it as his own residence.

He bought a bed at the furniture market and a Simmons mattress from Zhang Xilinmen.

Simmons entered my country very early, and then there were many mattress brands in the country, such as the Anmei mattress that emerged in the 20s, the Suibao mattress that emerged in the 30s, and other brands, but ordinary families cannot afford them.

Spending half of his life in bed, Li Yunhai certainly cannot treat his sleep badly.

Li Yunhai also bought desks, chairs, high and low cabinets, a small two-seater sofa, a small coffee table, and a set of cooking utensils.

There was gas in this era.But more people still use briquettes.Briquettes are much more convenient than firewood, but it takes a while to light the fire in the coal stove, and then you have to constantly fan the stove to make the coal stove burn more vigorously. The house is often filled with smoke and the choking is unbearable.When urban residents buy briquettes, they have to rely on tickets to supply them.

Li Yunhai bought a gas stove, and the fuel was a gas bag.Gas bag is what people call it colloquially, but it actually contains liquefied petroleum gas.When a tank of gas is burned out, you only need to replace it with a gas bag, which is much less troublesome than a coal-fired stove.

The 18-inch color TV he bought was placed on the high and low cabinets, an IBM computer was placed on the desk, and a brand-new motorcycle was parked outside the door. The prototype of a warm home was formed, similar to the apartments of later generations.

Li Yunhai returned home and fetched water to take a bath.

He bought a bathtub and placed it in a corner, separated by a shower curtain, so that he didn't have to go outside to take a bath, and he could still take a hot bath at home in winter.

Li Yunhai turned on the TV, sat on the sofa, and watched TV comfortably.

He thought of something, got up, took paper and pen, and leaned on the coffee table to write something.

Tomorrow is Sunday.He promised Zhou Yushan to give his first class at the Youth Palace tomorrow night.He has to make a lesson preparation note in advance.

While I was writing something, there was a knock on the door.

Li Yunhai was surprised. Who would come to see him so late?
He put down the pen and paper and stood up to open the door.

Li Yunhai couldn't help but smile when he saw Lin Zhi smiling coquettishly: "Why are you here so late?"

Lin Zhi pursed her lips and smiled: "I miss you, can't I? Lin Xin called me and said you had been to her house?"

"Yes!" Li Yunhai invited her in and said, "It's a coincidence that you said this! There are millions of people in Xizhou, and I just met you! I really didn't know that Director Lin and your family were related before."

"This shows that we are destined! Lin Xin is my cousin. Her dad and my dad are uncles and brothers." Lin Zhi walked in with a smile, looked at his room, and said, "It's not bad, it feels like home! Well, it's also There's something missing. I'll help you arrange it when I'm free tomorrow. What are you writing? "

"Write down the content of tomorrow night's lecture." Li Yunhai poured a cup of tea and brought it to her.

Lin Zhi took it, looked at the cup, and said with a smile, "Why does this cup look like a cup for girls?"

"This is the cup I prepared specially for you. You will come here to drink tea often."

"You only want to invite me to tea?"

"I can also treat you to dinner. I can cook."

"Well, what else?"

"I can invite you to watch movies or go shopping. Whatever you want to do, I'll accompany you."

"Okay, I see you bought a new bed, can you treat me to a sleepover?"

"what?"
