Hello 1983

  Chapter 42 Boy's Dream

  The rest has nothing to do with Liu Qingshan. It is a question that the leader should consider. He is such a brat that he is not qualified to meddle.

  There is only so much he can do for his hometown.

  This incident, Liu Qingshan was very impressed. It really caused a big sensation at the time. Bishui County was cheated out of a huge sum of 100,000 yuan by a fake Hong Kong businessman!

  That's right, one hundred thousand yuan, which was a huge sum of money at the time.

   Although someone has assumed the responsibility, the real gold and silver of 100,000 yuan cannot be recovered. Every penny is the hard-earned money of ordinary people.

  People in this era have a particularly strong sense of ownership, so few people take pleasure in other people's misfortune. Most of them grin and gasp after hearing this, feeling distressed.

  Since catching up with this matter, of course Liu Qingshan can't pretend to be deaf and dumb, and watch the county suffer such a big loss.

   It's just that he is quiet and young now, so he can only make side-effects and wake up those hot-headed people.

  I believe that with the ideological awareness of the cadres of this era, they will definitely be able to handle this matter well.

   When he came out of the bathroom and was about to go back to drink a bowl of japonica rice porridge made with toad oil, he felt someone grab his arm suddenly.

   Turning his head to see that it was Zheng Xiaoxiao, he didn't struggle, and was pulled into the small cubicle by her.

   "You are so courageous, you have mixed food and drink with Hong Kong businessmen!"

  Zheng Xiaoxiao frowned, her light-white fingers almost poked Liu Qingshan's forehead.

   "What are you talking about, I eat by my ability."

  Liu Qingshan was not annoyed, he glanced at the table and continued: "Your food is a bit shabby, there are no such things as bear's paws, why don't you want me to bring you some?"

   Eat and drink enough to tease the little girl, it seems quite interesting.

   "You... ignore you!"

  The little girl was quite angry, she flicked her braids and left, she seemed to mutter something like "stubborn" in her mouth, but Liu Qingshan didn't hear it clearly.

  She walked a few steps, stopped again, and dropped a sentence: "The day after tomorrow, No. 1 Middle School will start."

  School starts, I almost forgot about it.

  Liu Qingshan just remembered that his identity is actually a high school student, and the day after tomorrow is September 1st, the day when school starts.

   When he came back to his senses, Zheng Xiaoxiao had disappeared, so he just squinted in the room. He knew that next, the battle over there would start soon.

  Actually, the battle was not as intense as he had imagined. The magistrate Wang was so bad that he even joined forces with Zheng Hongqi to get Secretary Gao drunk, and then he also pretended to be drunk and slipped out directly under the table.

  In this situation, the contract obviously cannot be signed, and Chen Jiakang was so angry that he scolded his mother in his heart: These drunkards have never drunk Moutai in eight lifetimes, right?

  After all the people left the restaurant, Liu Qingshan wandered out and found that Zheng Hongqi was gone. He presumably called to investigate.

  The result is that Liu Qingshan has now become a big idler.

   If I go home, it will take less than two days, and I will definitely have to make troubles, so I simply stay in the county for one night.

   If the scam of the Hong Kong businessman is exposed, then he can be regarded as a meritorious official, and the matter of raising the loan will be a matter of course.

  While thinking about it, the chubby Aunt Zhang came over: "Student Liu, here are the clothes I bought for you. Also, County Magistrate Zheng asked me to tell you that you will eat and live in the guest house."

   The treatment is good.

   Liu Qingshan took a look at this student uniform, which was mixed with white clothes, so he accepted it with a smile.

   "Change it, go to the room and change it, this is what the leader explained."

  Aunt Zhang kept urging, and handed over a pair of shoes wrapped in her hand, which were a pair of pull-back sneakers.

  In this era, a pair of pull-back shoes is a boy's dream.

  When I usually go to school, it is not bad to have a pair of ordinary white sneakers, but it is only when the school starts, the sports meeting and other big scenes, I am willing to wear it once.

  After wearing it, wash it quickly when you get home, and finally apply white shoe powder carefully on the upper.

  Of course, if you don’t have shoe powder, you can also steal some chalk from school and put it on, the effect is similar.

   There is a shortcoming. When you stomp your feet hard, there will be a puff of white smoke coming out of the shoes.

  When Liu Qingshan was fully dressed and came out of the house, Aunt Zhang's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but exclaimed: "Really energetic!"

  It is true that people rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles. Liu Qingshan is already tall, nearly 1.75 meters, and he can grow two years.

   "Aunt Zhang, I'm going out for a walk, and I'll be back in a while."

  Smiling at the aunt, Liu Qingshan walked out of the guest house. When he got outside, he found that the weather was a bit gloomy, so he couldn't help shaking his head: It's going to rain.

  When I arrived at the gate of the county government, I found that the boss uncle had returned and was sitting in the reception room, chatting with Old Man Sun.

   Judging by his appearance, he is in a good mood, presumably the two daughters are doing well.

   "Qingshan, what did you get with this leaf, I almost didn't recognize it was you!"

  The boss uncle came up, looked at it again, stretched out and pinched the fabric and rubbed it. The so-called leaf is the local dialect, which means clothes.

   "This is polyester, it's much better than Dika."

  The boss uncle was full of praise.

  The best clothing material at that time was of course wool, which was the best for making uniforms. Liu Qingshan sold ready-made clothes, so the materials were so-so.

   Seeing him boasting endlessly, Liu Qingshan quickly changed the subject: "Uncle Boss, I'm going to go to the department store, are you going?"

   "Go, go, of course."

  Although Boss Che doesn’t buy anything, visiting department stores is definitely not reserved for women in this day and age. It’s good to keep your eyes open.

  And the boss uncle is really shopping, just shopping and not buying.

  The two of them didn't need to ride bicycles, so they went for a stroll. In Bishui County, on the three main streets in the southeast and north, there is a department store in each, and the names are arranged in order: the first department store or something.

  Referred to as "one hundred", "two hundred" and "three hundred", at that time, they were definitely the most sacred existence in the hearts of the people.

  The government is in the north of the county seat, the closest to Baibai. The old and the young follow the flow of people and enter the store, feeling a burst of coolness immediately.

  Looking up, there is a large three-leaf ceiling fan above the head, blowing a cool breeze.

  The first floor is for daily necessities, the second floor is for clothing, shoes and hats, and the most sought-after electrical appliances are also on the second floor.

   Along the way, every time the boss passed by a counter, he would lie on his stomach and stare at the glass for a long time. With his walking style, he probably couldn't finish it in three days.

  Liu Qingshan simply went to purchase by himself. He said it was a purchase, but in fact he had to make calculations.

   The first thing I went to was the place that sold stationery. Liu Qingshan chose two pink plastic stationery boxes, which are where the connectors are.

  The inside of the box is also more delicate, with small grids where you can put stationery such as rubber pencils.

   It’s just that the price is a bit expensive. A stationery box costs 2.8 yuan.

  I still have pencils that cost two cents a piece, I bought one round, and pencils with eraser tips cost three cents, I bought another round.

  Five cents a piece of fragrant eraser, I also bought two yuan, and finally bought two small schoolbags and a few notebooks, and I was done.

   After choosing the items, Liu Qingshan handed over the money habitually, but was glared at by the big sister of the salesperson: "Create the ticket and pay the money!"

  Yes, at this time, when buying something in a state-run store, you have to issue an invoice to pay, and then take the ticket to receive the item.

  Liu Qingshan had an oolong, and he could only wait for the salesperson to issue a ticket for him, take the ticket to pay, and then divide the things into two small schoolbags and pack them, and don’t plan to buy the rest.

  Because there is no money in my pocket.

  So he went to find the boss uncle, without any trouble at all, the boss uncle just moved from the original counter to the next counter.

   Seeing that it was going to rain outside, Liu Qingshan dragged the reluctant boss uncle to the door, and saw the crowd commotion.

  At this time, I saw a man walking towards this side with a large cardboard box on his back, and people gave way to both sides.

"TV set!"

  In the crowd, someone let out a cry of envy.

  When the boss heard this, he hurried forward and yelled, "Look, what does the TV look like?"

  Someone gossiped: "It's useless to see, without TV tickets, you can't buy them at all!"

  Seeing that Uncle Boss looked a little disappointed, Liu Qingshan dragged him by the arm and walked out, saying as he walked, "Uncle Boss, when our greenhouse has a harvest, we will definitely carry a TV back."

   "I don't dare to think about it. If I can have a radio, I will be content."

  The owner of the car sighed.

  Going out, there was already raining stars outside, and the uncle slapped his thigh: "Oh, I've been patronizing shopping, and I have to get watered when I go home."

   "We won't go back today, and we have to continue with the loan business tomorrow."

  Liu Qingshan had planned it long ago, just as Zheng Xiaoxiao also reminded him that school will start the day after tomorrow.

  Usually you can study at home, but when school starts, you still have to report and get books.

   "I won't go back, then I have to live in a big car shop, and I have to spend money."

  Uncle Boss sucked his teeth, his face full of pain.

  People at this time are used to being frugal, and they wish they could split a penny in half and spend it.

  The big car shop he was talking about was the cheapest hotel at that time, and people usually drove a horse-drawn carriage into the city, and those who couldn't go back that day slept in the big car shop.

  Liu Qingshan smiled and said: "We don't need to live in a big car shop."

  Boss Che said cruelly: "Sure, then we two will find a place with a leeward wind for the night, anyway, this month is not too cold, just looking at this posture, it might rain."

  When he was led by Liu Qingshan to the entrance of the guest house, the boss uncle said that he would not go in: "No, no, this place is lived by cadres, let's go in and don't be kicked out by others, it's embarrassing!"

   "Uncle boss, don't you always say that you are the boss, the boss is qualified to live here."

   "I'm the owner of the car, okay? It's just right to live in a big car shop."

  Huh, huh, huh, huh, the rain was getting heavier, Liu Qingshan couldn't help but dragged the boss uncle into the guest house, only to step into a puddle.

   Oops, my pull-back shoes!
