After being read, the fake daughter was spoiled in 90

Chapter 68 Pager

Under the reluctant eyes of the fat elder sister, Zhao Shaokang put away the receipt, invoice and delivery order for the TV.

Before leaving, you can go to the warehouse to pick up the TV with these three notes.

The two left the TV counter and walked forward to the communication equipment counter.

This is a circular counter.

Song Xiaoran leaned on the counter and took a look, and found that the seller was mainly using the phone.

Song Xiaoran had applied to the Communications Bureau to open a phone call a week ago.

But now there are so many people who want to install phones in every house. If she didn't find someone to help her, Song Xiaoran would have to wait for at least three months before it was her turn.

So Song Xiaoran is not in a hurry to buy a phone, and will wait for the people from the Communications Bureau to install the phone line first.

Song Xiaoran walked around the counter and finally saw small black square boxes slightly larger than matchboxes appearing in front of her eyes.

This is the legendary pager.

Song Xiaoran had only heard of this thing before, and had no chance to use it at all. The specific method of using the pager was learned from her uncle a few days ago.

As a non-communications professional, she didn't bring any old people with her, so she only had a rough understanding of this industry.

But because she had followed a lot of novels, TV series, and movies in the past, even though she had never eaten pork, she knew a little bit about how to raise pigs.

She knows that the upgrading of domestic communication tools is basically carried out in the order of home phones, pagers, PHS, and mobile phones.

Now that we have reached an era where home phones and pagers are gradually becoming more popular, the next step is the emergence and popularization of PHS and mobile phones.

Every time people update their communication tools, new industry giants rise and old industry giants decline.

Every change of dynasty means a reshuffle of massive wealth.

Communications is the 21st century that is about to come. From a high point of view, it is the greatest and most subversive industry in life, and from a simple point of view, it is one of the most profitable industries.

If there is an opportunity to start over, it is impossible for this industry not to participate in it. This is also one of Song Xiaoran’s long-term plans for the future.

Of course, the long-term plan means very far away, so don’t think too much about it yet.

All she needs to consider now is which pager to buy!

There are too many varieties, some are larger, some are smaller, some have screens, some have no screens and only have a small light.

Prices also range from more than 1000 to more than 7000.

Song Xiaoran looked up and asked for help.

There are quite a lot of waiters at the communication counter, there are four of them, two of them are greeting the customers who are buying phones there, and the remaining two are idle.

The two people who were idle exchanged glances with Song Xiaoran at the same time. The older one gently pushed the young teller wearing glasses next to him and continued to drink tea from his cup.

The young teller came over and said, "Hello, madam, do you want to buy a pager?"

In this day and age, young lady is still a very complimentary word.

Song Xiaoran nodded: "I just don't know which one to buy."

“The pagers we have here include those with a display screen and those without a display screen. Those with displays are not Chinese display or digital display.

As the name suggests, the Chinese display means that it can display Chinese character information from the paging station, while the digital display can only display numeric information.

But now there are many paging stations that do not support Chinese character transmission, so I recommend that you buy one with a digital display or one without a display is enough. Digital displays generally cost more than 4000 yuan, but the manufacturer of this digital display has a discount. It is only priced at 2999 yuan now. If you use our designated paging station, you will get a barrel of soybean oil for free..."

The young teller did not look down on Song Xiaoran because of his youth. The introduction was not only attentive, but also very considerate.

Song Xiaoran lowered his head and glanced at the bid price:

Wow, the Han Display one costs more than 7000 yuan. By comparison, this M brand one that comes with a barrel of soybean oil for 2999 is quite cheap.

2999 yuan, which is equivalent to wearing a TV on your waist.

She made a decision in her mind and looked up at the little brother with eyes in front of her.

As a waiter in a state-owned enterprise, the young man in front of me can be said to be unusually enthusiastic.

Song Xiaoran can only guess that the guy with eyes may have just joined the job, so he is still quite enthusiastic about his work.
-
  Song Xiaoran really guessed right.

The boy with eyes is named Xu Chu. He studied hard at home for three years and wanted to take the college entrance examination. However, he failed three times and finally gave up. His mother asked him to find a job here through his connections.

It's just that he has been here for more than a month and has not sold a pager yet.

Although you get a dead salary here, and you won’t get any bonuses no matter how much you sell, but at least some verbal praise and honorary red flags are quite helpful for future promotion assessments.

It's like playing mahjong together during the Chinese New Year. It really doesn't matter whether you win or lose, but you can't just sit there all night and just play cards. You have to play around with one or two to have fun.

Xu Chu looked at the little girl in front of him. Although he had no life experience, as long as he was not stupid, he could naturally tell that the little girl in front of him was probably here to go shopping and ask about new things.

Otherwise, how could the shrewd old Li push himself out?

Song Xiaoran said cheerfully: "Okay, then I want the one you mentioned."

"What?" Xu Chu suspected that he heard wrongly, "Do you really want it? It's 2999."

People in this era have nothing but a lot of time and a slow pace of life.

Therefore, the requirements for immediacy of communication are not high.

Pagers are just a high-end luxury product, useful but not necessary. ,
  That is to say, some big bosses will buy one to wear around their waists, and some people even refuse to activate it without applying for a number, just to prove that they can afford it.

This is just like L-brand, C-brand and H-brand bags decades later. They can essentially have the same function as the plastic bags sent by supermarkets, but their value can be equal to that of a plastic bag factory.

Xu Chu stared at Song Xiaoran, but looking horizontally and vertically, he felt that the pure and beautiful girl in front of him didn't look like someone who wanted to buy a pager!

Song Xiaoran was already a little helpless and took a step back. He didn't even need to recite the curse, but just looked at him and summoned the humanoid payment machine.

When Zhao Shaokang came forward to discuss the purchase and number selection with Xu Chu, Song Xiaoran said hello and went up to the second floor.

The second floor mainly sells various clothing, shoes, hats and fabrics.

Song Xiaoran was walking around and found that the business here was really bad.

There is almost no one at the clothing counter. It can be said that there is no one around.

The cloth counter is still a bit popular.

Song Xiaoran observed that most of the people buying cloth here were older adults and aunts, or uncles and aunts who obviously came to the city from the countryside to do shopping.

I guess I still have a sewing machine at home and am used to making my own clothes.

The clothing business here has been overwhelmed by various clothing boutiques and night market stalls outside.
