Sumu wood in the quadrangle welcomes spring

Chapter 142 Past and Present (Page 12)

Dongxiao City is as crowded as ever.

The New Year is approaching, and in order to celebrate the New Year, every household is trying their best to use their extra or unused things to prepare some New Year goods.

Naturally, there are also people who take advantage of this and take out the good things that they are reluctant to enjoy in exchange for some real money to supplement their family income.

Although those tense years have passed for a long time, the sequelae cannot be completely eliminated so quickly.

There are always some families that get over it quickly and become more and more prosperous;

There will always be some people who have two broken ribs and cannot recover for three to five years.

Su Mu didn't take action.

Follow Chen Dakui and watch him operate.

It's like a master testing his apprentice's basic skills.

Even without Golden Finger, Su Mu still has this confidence.

There are obvious differences in thinking and philosophy between people who have experienced the information explosion and the business world and those who were born and raised in this era.

"Brother, can you tell me what's wrong with me?"

"It's pretty good. I'll get familiar with it in the past two days. You can do your work tomorrow while I go to the west for a walk."

"Hey, then I'll go back to the courtyard to find you when I'm done."

This is in front of the stall, Su Mu and Chen Dakui are chatting while eating.

The meaning of plain fire roasting and pork noodles to Sumu is far more than just a good bite.

What you put into your mouth still has the taste of the past.

After breakfast, Chen Dakui took Su Mu to the department store on a scooter.

The door hadn't opened yet, so the two of them were waiting in line outside.

He squatted in the corner of the sun-facing corner with his hands folded, white air rising from his mouth with every breath he took.

This scene is simply too common in the capital city of this era.

It has been exactly ten years since the Beijing Department Store was established, and customers are still crowded every day, especially at the three major items counters.

As we enter the end of the year, if we don't queue up in advance in the middle of the night, it would be a miracle if we can buy it.

You must know that the shoe and hat counter and the three major items counters have iron bars to prevent customers from crushing them.

Su Mu didn't buy many things, but it was because of the end of the year that small supply and marketing cooperatives or department stores were out of stock or incomplete.

Just come here directly.

Now it is also called Beijing City Department Store Wangfujing Department Store, which has led to the prosperity of the entire Wangfujing street.

The place where Su Mu and Chen Dakui were squatting was next door to the fruit stall set up by Bao Yu Zhai Food Store on Wangfujing Street.

Baoyu Zhai was merged into the Dongcheng District Food Factory a few years ago due to a public-private partnership. It has stalls in many places and sells fruits.

It's a little earlier than the opening time of the department store.

There are not many fruits in winter, and many of them are shipped from other places.

One day of selling means one day of freezing.

However, it is a seller's market these days. As long as there is goods, there is no need to worry about not being able to sell them.

Su Mu stared blankly at the red letter written on the wooden basket with the name Daoxiangchun Food Store.

Chen Dakui thought Sumu wanted to eat, so he stood up immediately and became the stall's first customer today.

I bought a bag of apples and stuffed them into the sacks I had prepared in advance.

Su Mu smiled and shook his head.

When the department store opened, the crowd began to surge towards the open mouth of the gold-swallowing beast.

Buy a set of cotton curtains, some fructose and toffee, and mainly wine-filled chocolate.

Going up to the second floor, you will see a whole wall of washbasins in the window directly opposite.

It's very spectacular.

This is one of his goals.

Chen Dakui helped line up.

Su Mu continued to move forward.

There is a very eye-catching display window on the left.

There are many domestically produced semiconductor radios, cameras, nylon shirts, scientific instruments and other products on display.

Inscribed on it are the eight characters "Self-reliance and hard work".

Almost every customer who passes by will stop and take a look.

Or appreciate it, or desire it.

Su Mu sighed in his heart.

He actually 'searched' for a lot of good stuff in Europe and the United States.

He even quietly visited the so-called airplane graveyard in the beautiful country.

He actually has a lot of high-tech gadgets stored in his space.

But because the golden finger was broken, everything before was in vain.

Including rewards, medals and all the money he had saved for his previous meritorious services.

People in the old Beijing say: Don’t go anywhere if you can’t buy something in a department store.

Although the species is complete, there are also many restrictions.

Just because Wangfujing Department Store is becoming increasingly prosperous, the number of customers is constantly increasing, resulting in queues for almost anything to buy.

Sumu queues up in a queue, Chen Dakui queues up in another queue, and continues to queue after buying...

Just like this, after buying all the things Sumu needed, it was already noon.

It's almost time for lunch, so the two men naturally don't buy groceries and go home to cook.

Go eat hot pot.

People in Beijing pay attention to eating in season.

In winter, you should eat beef and mutton.

Shabu-shabu mutton is a favorite method among Beijing people.

After all, the cost of beef and mutton is too high. Mixing it with other ingredients can reduce consumption costs, relieve stress, and try to make it possible for everyone to have a meal.

If you have plenty of money, you can eat more meat and less or no vegetables.

If you don't have enough money, you can eat some meat and eat more other vegetables.

Everything can be rinsed.

The old-fashioned brass charcoal pot was brought up, and four plates of green vegetables were placed.

Chen Dakui ordered 4 plates of meat.

"Brother, let's eat first. If we don't have enough, we can continue."

"it is good."

The current price of four plates of meat is equivalent to Chen Dakui's three hours of busy work at Xiaoshi just now, and he even added a little more.

But neither of them cared.

"hey-hey."

Chen Dakui suddenly laughed twice.

"What are you laughing at?"

"I was shocked when I thought that the first time you planned to teach me, we were also here to cook mutton. I was reluctant to eat it at that time..."

Thinking of the past, Su Mu couldn't help but recall the scene at that time.

It's as vivid as yesterday.

"Brother, let's go alone. Without you, I wouldn't be where I am today."

"This is serious. We are all brothers. Don't say those things that are out of sight. In the past two days, we have been working together and paying for each other. What did I say?"

Su Mu raised his glass and had sex with Chen Dakui.

"Dakui, it's time for you to start a family."

"Brother, there's actually someone we can talk to. We've agreed before, but we haven't decided on a time yet. It just so happens that I'll feel relieved when you come back, brother. I'll let the matchmaker go back and make peace. When the first month comes, I will move out and make room for you..."

"By the way, if you really want to get married, don't you have to find a house? Just live there. I don't lack a place."

Chen Dakui scratched his head in embarrassment.

The reason why Chen Dakui lives here, in the eyes of the sub-district office, is because of Sumu.
