Chapter 63 Buying a TV
Ji Yi didn't go out today, just stayed at home.

After so many busy days, it’s time to take a rest.

Savage Mountain is a long way away, and Lin Yi plans to collect clips every two or three days.

Running every day would be too much for people.

People from the town's power supply station came to Lin Yi's house in the afternoon, and the electricity that Lin Yi had been missing was finally connected.

The miscellaneous expenses cost more than ten yuan.

For Ji Yi, it doesn't matter.

Looking at the bright room, Ji Yi was still very satisfied.

Although these days they are all tungsten filament bulbs and yellow light incandescent bulbs.

Fluorescent lamps were not invented until 89.

Many children in future generations may not know what incandescent lamps look like.

But in the 90s and [-]s, most people used white woven lamps in their homes.

The light emitted by this kind of light bulb is dull and yellow.

It is much darker than the lights of later generations, but it is obviously much better than kerosene lamps.

Ji Yi is already very satisfied.

Only when electricity is connected can we live a modern life.

Otherwise, I would really feel uncomfortable.

"Now that we have lights and enough money, it's time to go to the supply and marketing cooperative and buy back the color TV that Uncle Pan reserved for himself."

Ji Yi muttered in his heart.

It's a pity that there is only one TV ticket, otherwise Ji Yi would have wanted to buy two TVs, one for the living room outside and one for his room.

In the 80s, TV sets were very rare in the whole village.

Lin Yi can predict that after buying the TV, the house will be very lively.

Neighbors from all over the place come to visit.

The village chief has a TV in his house. In the summer, every night, he moves the TV to the window and lets the villagers watch it in the yard.

Now in winter, the living room at home is also full of people at night.

In fact, there are not many TV dramas in this era, and those are the ones that come and go.

But there are already some classics that have come out.

For example, the Legend of Chu Liuxiang in 79, this year's Shanghai on the Bund, and Fearless will be broadcast after the New Year.

However, these TV series are currently not available in the mainland.

Because it was not until 83 that Hong Kong and Taiwan dramas were introduced to the mainland.

However, in the 70s and 80s, the quality of mainland TV dramas and movies was also very good.

A large number of good-looking TV sets have emerged, so Lin Yi doesn't have to worry about running out of dramas to follow.

Compared with those youth dramas, idol dramas, ancient puppets, and love dramas of later generations, Ji Yi still prefers to watch old movies and TV series.

After resting at home for a day, Ji Yi took Lin Rourou and her mother to the forest farm the next day.

The family had a meal in the canteen of the forest farm and called Lin Qingfeng, which was considered a family gathering.

As the holiday approaches, Lin Qingfeng is a little unmotivated to go to work.

Especially after hearing that my family was going to buy a TV, I wanted to go home for the holidays now to celebrate the New Year.

"Dad, this is not easy. Please take a few days off. It's almost the Chinese New Year anyway, and there are relatively few things going on here at the forest farm." Lin Yi said.

In the past, Lin Qingfeng would have replied, "If you don't work, why don't you go home and drink the northwest wind?"
But thinking about Lin Yi's performance these days, Lin Qingfeng sighed, he could not earn as much as Lin Yi in one day in a month.

It was wild vegetables, it was a bear hunt to get a reward, and a black bear was sold for nearly 1000 yuan.

Comrade Lao Lin didn't know that Lin Yi had picked up wild ginseng a few days ago, otherwise he would probably be more vulnerable.

Why is the gap between people so big?

Of course, because it was his son who made the money, Lao Lin was still very happy.

After struggling for a few seconds, he agreed to his son and asked for leave in the afternoon.

Let's go home together this afternoon.

The donkey cart was a bit small, so after taking leave, Lao Lin planned to take the shuttle bus home in the afternoon.

The shuttle bus needs to be on time, and you can't leave with Ji Yi and the others.Li Xiuhe gave Lin Qingfeng the key to his home.

Before going home, Lin Yi took a few people to visit the warehouse he rented, um
Lin Qingfeng has actually sneaked over to check it out a few times. When he meets his co-workers, he tells them that his son rented it and plans to open a store after the year. He hopes everyone will support it then.

Grain and oil stores are closely related to life.

Basically every household needs it.

"It's great. The yard is so big. It will be enough for our family to live in when the time comes." Li Xiuhe liked this big yard the most.

Behind the yard, there is a small vegetable patch.

Li Xiuhe plans to wait until spring, grow some vegetables here, and raise a few chickens.

Decoration workers have already started working on the site, and the power of money still works.

First clean up a small room, and then you can ask Zhuzi to come over and supervise the work.

This guy has asked several times when he can come over to supervise the work.

I can't sit idle at home and feel that life in the forest farm is as sweet as honey.

Let him come and experience it.

People's hearts are like this. When you are at home, you feel that the outside world is wonderful and must be fun.

But when I really jumped out of the house and went outside, I started to recall the beauty of home again.

Distance creates beauty.

Lin Yi paid 2100 yuan and bought a color TV with the ticket.

Li Xiuhe and Lin Rourou were very protective when they returned home.

In their eyes, this TV is like a baby bump.

Ji Yi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but didn't say much.

He was not the same in his previous life.

I remember that it was almost the turn of the millennium and my family had just bought their first TV set.

Good guy, the status of television is higher than everyone else.

The one who protects is called a good one.

Also cover it with a piece of cloth to prevent dust from falling in through the gaps in the casing behind the TV.

But later, the TV broke and when they called for repairs, the repairman told them.

The reason why this TV is broken is the cloth covering it.

The gap in the back case of the TV is used for ventilation and heat dissipation.

If it's covered, it won't be damaged.

At that time, everyone was dumbfounded by this.

The co-authored protection was so good, but it was wrong.

The news that the Lin family bought a large color TV spread like wildfire in the village.

The whole village was shocked.

These days, the charm of a color TV can appeal to all ages.

Soon, the Lin family's yard was surrounded by water.

The TV set in the village chief's house is black and white.

The Lin family's color TV is the first color TV in the village.

What is the difference between color TV and black and white TV?

Everyone is vying to see what this color TV looks like. Will there really be colors in it?
Television sets these days require an antenna on the roof to receive signals.

Lin Yi, Lin Qingfeng, and Zhuzi brought the ladder and worked on the roof for more than half an hour before it was done.

Lin Rourou in the house received the signal and quickly came out to tell Ji Yi and others.

At this time, many villagers watching TV had gathered in the living room.

"Yeah, it's really colorful. It's so beautiful. This color TV is just different."

"Xiao Yi is really capable. When I was a kid, I thought he had a lot of cleverness. He will definitely have a lot of potential when he grows up. You see what I said is right."

"Xiuhe, Qingfeng, you two will enjoy endless blessings from now on."
