Chapter 690
At the end of July, although the day in the capital is still so hot and dry, there is already some cool breeze at night, as long as it is not a particularly dense residential area, the night is not so stuffy.
The temperature, about 20 degrees Celsius.
The undirected wind was blowing all over the city, and I didn't know which direction it was trying to blow.
The wind direction is uncertain is a characteristic of the capital, and no matter what month it is, most of the time it is blowing so indiscriminately, no matter which way it is, it will be blown anyway.
"It's going to rain tomorrow, so if you don't get it in the evening, you'll have to come down. Jiang Weihong looked up at
the end of July in the sky capital, the sunset time was about half past seven, and if it was dark, it would be after eight o'clock.
At this time, it was just after five o'clock, and it was the end of work, and there were already a large number of pedestrians and bicycles on the street, and people were crowded next to each other, and there were people walking in any direction.
After work
, the car is sandwiched in the bicycle and struggles to move forward, and all kinds of bells and horns are constantly ringing.
Buses, minibuses, vans, cars, noodles, taxis, jumpers, bicycles, motorcycles, donkeys and pedestrians are entangled but do not feel contradictory at all.
"You say," Zhang Tiejun looked at Jiang Weihong: "Let's walk around here slowly, and the people queuing at the door of Minister Liu's office will see it for a while, can you come and give me a while?"
He took up a lot of Minister Liu's time today, and also took up the time of those comrades in line, in fact, he was a little reluctant to go, but there was no way.
"I guess I don't dare," Jiang Weihong also smiled: "The people who can line up there are not ordinary people, how can they be so reckless?" It is estimated that they should be able to stare at and scold a few words secretly.
Li Shusheng disagreed with this statement: "I feel that they can use the introduction to get to know Tiejun, and at first glance, they can catch up with the line, can he miss this opportunity?"
Zhang Tiejun also felt that there would be this possibility, it depended on whether the other party was bold enough.
Jiang Weihong looked at the front and back, and frowned a little: "Tiejun, next time, you can't come out to press the road so casually, especially at this time, there are too many people." "
Then they," Zhang Tiejun pointed to the lively and chattering crowd around him, "Aren't they leaving?
"
Let me be a person first," Zhang Tiejun took out a cigarette and handed one to the two of them: "Don't take me for anything, I'm still very early from being isolated from the world, at least fifty years, it's too early to say now."
Zhang Tiejun helped them light cigarettes and said, "Do you say? I'm only twenty-one, and I won't be allowed to go shopping, watch movies, and play billiards? "
You can pull it down," Jiang Weihong twitched his face: "The punishment of the two of us is not sure when it will be lifted, you still want to make a girl fight in a group? You killed the two of us."
"That's what it means, don't limit me, I still know in my heart, and I won't go to dangerous places."
"Then come out and add a few more people in the future," Li Shusheng said: "At least six people, it's really not good to rely on the two of us, the pressure is too great."
Zhang Tiejun snorted a few times and turned his head to look in all directions.
How wonderful, look at the pedestrians here, they are all full of vitality, with a smile on their faces, walking unhurriedly, laughing everywhere, revealing a sense of relaxation.
The smell of cooking dinner fills the air, and everyone is full of yearning for life.
Ten years later, since the beginning of the zero years, the capital can no longer see and experience this kind of idle artistic conception, and the capital is one of the first cities to become unlivable.
Beijing, Shenguang, Shenzhen, and Suzhou, the five most inhospitable cities, have become the pride of the country. Live in great misery.
Since 03, Zhang Tiejun has lived in these five cities, including Zhengzhou in the Central Plains, Wuhan in Jiangcheng, and finally he chose Yucheng.
It's just that he didn't expect that Yucheng was also slowly degenerating.
By a few years, Yucheng had become an impatient and impetuous city, no longer leisurely, and the common people enjoyed the highest consumption with the lowest income.
"Do you agree?" Li Shusheng asked.
"Okay, I'm not going to give you a problem. Zhang Tiejun looked at the art museum: "I went inside to visit one day, and I haven't been to the National Museum." "
I'll see it. Jiang Weihong laughed: "It's good that you just stare at these places every day." "
There are few people, people in our country have never been interested in any art, cultural relics, history and culture, and there are always few people in the museum.
Zhang Tiejun feels that it is mainly a matter of guidance, of course, it is also related to the state of life, and the so-called golden antiques in troubled times are also suitable for use here.
I can't eat enough, I can't live, how can I have the leisure to appreciate art and cultural relics?
When I walked to the crossroads, this is a big intersection, and the people in this place are called more than one, and the ground cannot be seen at all in four corners and eight directions.
The three of them crossed the road with the flow of people, and after coming to the intersection, the people around them began to decrease visibly, and began to disperse into the small alley on the side of the road.
In addition to government agencies, this area is also a miscellaneous courtyard.
"Have you two been to the courtyard to take a look?"
"No," Jiang Weihong shook his head: "Don't go, I don't want to see it, I know what it's like." "
What's it?" Li Shusheng asked.
"Let's put it this way," Jiang Weihong patted Li Shusheng on the shoulder: "After you have seen these miscellaneous courtyards, you will feel that your hometown is simply a paradise, and you live comfortably and happily."
"Really?" Li Shusheng didn't believe it, and turned his head to look at Zhang Tiejun.
"Really, not an exaggeration at all. Zhang Tiejun nodded.
The dwellings on Xinmin's side are talking about a big one.
The big house has a big yard, and the bedroom has 256 square meters, and the miscellaneous courtyard in the capital is more than 20 square meters, and at least seven or eight people have to be divided into bedrooms and kitchens.
Isn't that what kind of paradise is?
In the whole country, the living conditions and living conditions of the two highest places are the worst in the country, and the unimaginable difference can be said to be bad.
Then there is Shenzhen, which is the last, and people are not as good as dogs.
Although Guangzhou has all kinds of chaos and all kinds of bad things and the unbearable return to Nantian, it is much better than Jingshenshen on the whole.
"I don't believe it," Li Shusheng said, "Then why do they still live here
?" "Nonsense, you can move wherever you want? Where do you move? I don't want a job or a hukou?"
"Oh, yes, I didn't react at once." Li Shusheng scratched his head embarrassedly. People have just left the bills and grain books, and their memories of the relationship between hukou work and grain are still quite profound.
Most of the children born after the 85th generation no longer know what the food book ticket is, and they don't have any sense of the hukou, and they don't know that when they don't remember, the grain is still fixed.
In fact, from the perspective of the whole country, in the year of '93, to be more precise, in May '93, all kinds of bills and grain books were officially abolished, and the grain stamps as the second currency withdrew from the stage of history.
93 years, the grain station workers are destroying the last batch of
food stamps, Zhang Ma still has a lot of cloth stamps, cotton stamps, food stamps or something, she was still laughing that day, saying that she was blind, and she should have used it earlier. Zhang Tiejun told her to keep it well and take it as a souvenir in the future.
No matter what it is, as long as it exists, it will definitely become a souvenir in the future, and countless people will miss it. The more common it is, the more so.
Because it's so ordinary, no one cares, and the stock is often very scarce. It's an interesting phenomenon.
At this time, the noise of the car is very loud, and the bus will emit black smoke, and it feels like it is about to break down at any time, but I can persevere, and try to struggle through the bicycle flow.
There are a lot of stalls on the side of the road and on the corners, mostly old ladies selling popsicles and sodas, and some selling fried cakes and snacks, but there are fewer of them, and there are more of them in the morning.
The face was like a swarm of locusts, and the manic voices of the yellow body followed one after another, and it was anxious all over the street.
The bicycle storage area was full, and the bicycles were emptied as soon as they turned their heads, merging into the dense crowd of cars.
bicycle storage on the side of the road
is still a very lucrative business at this time, and there is also industry discrimination, there are special storage points for racing cars, and the ticket price is twice as expensive.

storage
women are already beautiful in this era, with suspender shorts, colorful long skirts and short skirts, stockings, carrying various bags, perming different hairstyles, and a BB machine pinned to the waist.
The streets of Beijing in '93
were the scenery on the streets.
there are also pairs, all of which are men carrying women's bags, holding women in their arms with one hand, and whispering and laughing while walking, looking at it and feeling quite happy.
In '91, it was rare to see men and women on the street, and by '93 it was already Xi to hugging each other. People's ability to accept new ideas and new things has always been so strong.
At this time in '93, there were a lot of jewelry and gold shops on the side of the road, a bit like the later pharmacies, some domestic sales, some foreign exchange shops, and there were always some young people around the door of each store.
There are those who resell gold, those who resell foreign exchange coupons, and those who are plainclothes police, who specialize in catching thieves and reversing foreign exchange. At this time, it is still illegal to resell foreign exchange and foreign exchange coupons.
In fact, he doesn't care whether you resell or not, it is illegal for you to recycle at a high price.
Looking at the local and unwanted brands in the foreign exchange jewelry and gold stores, as well as the faces of the last century, Zhang Tiejun turned his head to look at Li Shusheng and Jiang Weihong: "Do you two have foreign exchange coupons in your hands?"
Jiang Weihong glanced over there: "You want to buy something? I don't have it on me."
Li Shusheng also shook his head. Who has nothing to do with that thing on their body, and they can't be used as money.
Foreign exchange coupons are not cheap to buy things, in fact, they are more expensive than domestic sales, but there are many good things, many imported goods, and many things that are rarely seen in ordinary times can be found.
And this thing also has an exchange function, which can be directly exchanged for RMB or US dollars, there is a price difference, and the black market is quite hot.
As long as it is not caught and confiscated by plainclothes, it is iron earning. Many of the brave people in Beijing and Shencheng have made a fortune by relying on this.
"It's not about buying things," Zhang Tiejun shook his head: "If you have this toy at home, you can collect it when you go back, go to the Bank of China to open a dollar account and deposit it." I also remembered it when I saw this mall. "
Foreign exchange bills will cease to circulate in '95, and on January 1st, if you miss it, it will become waste paper. There is still more than a year to go.
Beginning in October '93, a large number of residents poured into the Bank of China to open US dollar accounts in the capital of Shencheng and Guangzhou, and these three cities were the places with the largest number of private foreign exchange bills.
Zhang Tiejun doesn't have foreign exchange coupons at home, so he doesn't need them, and these people in his family can buy anything directly with U.S. dollars or foreign exchange checks, saving the trouble of exchanging them back and forth.
In fact, it is quite profitable to take dollars to the black market to exchange at this time, with an exchange rate of five dollars and seven cents and six cents, the black market can be exchanged for about ten yuan, and there are people who want it when they are in a hurry.
It is said that it is higher on the Shencheng side, but Zhang Tiejun has not seen it with his own eyes. Chengdu is not low.
The main reason is that there are too many people in these three cities who want to go abroad, and the dollar is just needed, and there are long queues at the entrance of the US embassy every day.
