Siheyuan: The Cellar
Chapter 96 Permanent 26 Kun
After breakfast and washing up, Chen Guoliang went out.
Now he had a lot of money on him. Liu Li didn't confiscate the money Yi Zhonghai paid to him before, and now it was all on him.
A total of 500 million!
If his injuries had not healed yet, he would have gone shopping long ago.
But the consumption in this era is actually not that much.
For Chen Guoliang now, all he wants is a bicycle.
When I passed by the Central Courtyard, I happened to hear Jia Donglu cursing at Qin Huairu!
"Qin Huairu, don't you want to rescue Mom at all?"
"Qin Huairu, you are unfilial!"
"Qin Huairu, you are such a waste, what's the point of our Jia family marrying you?"
In response, Chen Guoliang smiled slightly.
If he just wanted to cause some trouble for the Jia family at the beginning, but after the system gave the reward, he knew that Qin Huairu really listened to what he said.
The more Jia Dongxu scolds Qin Huairu now, the more Qin Huairu's belief will be strengthened.
However, Chen Guoliang needs to think carefully about how to use the three portions of life spring water given to him.
My mother must keep a copy.
As for the remaining two?
I haven't figured out who to give it to yet.
Speaking of which, although he was a prodigal son in his previous life and had no red beliefs, he actually respected scholars very much.
If possible, he would like to give that person a fountain of life.
But for now, he definitely won't be able to see the other person.
And even if this one is counted, there is still one extra one, so he probably doesn't need this thing at the moment.
The effect of the Marrow Cleansing and Body Refining Pill that the system rewarded him at the beginning has not yet been fully absorbed. Even though almost two months have passed, it is still slowly improving his physical fitness.
He was afraid that drinking another portion of Life Water would make him too weak to be replenished.
He ignored the cursing from the Jia family in the middle courtyard.
Chen Guoliang's destination this time was the department store in Wangfujing.
Although we have not fully entered the era of bills this year, the city of Beijing had already issued flour purchase certificates as early as the end of last year.
It was not until two years later that various types of tickets, such as grain tickets, meat tickets, cloth tickets, cotton tickets, oil tickets, and sugar tickets, came into being one after another, and then China entered the era of bills.
Fortunately, at this time, you don’t need a ticket to buy a bicycle.
This is also the reason why Chen Guoliang remembered to spend the money.
Because after the New Year, even if I have money, I may not be able to spend it.
If you want to buy a big item like a bicycle, you have to go to a department store, because the general supply and marketing cooperatives don't stock it, and you have to go to a department store to buy it.
In this era, bicycles are not as scarce as one might imagine.
As early as the founding period of the People's Republic of China, there were more than 100,000 bicycles in the city.
Now, after four or five years of development, it is hard to say how many there are, but it must be at least 300,000.
However, most of these bicycles are in the hands of the children of the compound and the postal staff of the public security station.
Therefore, this thing is common on the streets, but there are very few of them in the hands of the working class.
Generally speaking, this thing is a rare thing for today's workers, but it is not so rare that everyone would be jealous of it.
For example, in the courtyard houses, there are many people who can afford to buy bicycles as long as they want.
Some people even bought one and bought another without any problem. For example, Yi Zhonghai was a victim.
Later, the reason why there were so few bicycles in the entire courtyard was entirely because of the bills.
After entering the era of bills, it doesn’t mean that you can buy it just because you have tickets and money.
You also need to explain the source of the ticket, and the staff at the department store will verify it. If there is any discrepancy, they will definitely not sell it to you.
Wangfujing is neither close nor far from Nanluoguxiang.
This all depends on how much money Chen Guoliang has in his pocket.
If he had no money in his pocket, the distance would be within two steps, but now that Chen Guoliang has money in his pocket, the distance is so great that he could not even walk even if he died of exhaustion.
After sitting in the airbag car (the kind with a big steam bag on top that would send the whole car into the sky when it exploded) and shaking for more than ten minutes, Chen Guoliang arrived at the department store.
After walking around inside, I found a place selling bicycles.
There are only two models of bicycles sold on the market now, Fei Ge and Forever.
As for the Phoenix? Sorry, it doesn't even have a trademark.
Fei Ge was born in 50. Based on the demands of consumers and the instructions of the Machinery Industry Bureau, the Jinwei Bicycle Factory decided to trial-produce a new type of bicycle, called Fei Ge bicycle.
However, it is worth mentioning that although Fei Ge was the first to launch the 28 bicycle, the most famous ones later were the Forever 28 large-bar and Phoenix 28 bicycles.
As for Fei Ge, no one knew where it had been taken by these two.
Forever is one of the earliest bicycle manufacturers in the country. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Forever developed a standard bicycle with unified national bicycle standards and specifications, and subsequently developed the first generation of 660MM light bicycles and trucks.
However, similarly, Forever brand bicycles were officially launched on the market in 50.
After Chen Guoliang selected for a while, considering the situation later, he finally chose a Yongjiu 26 Kun car.
Compared to the 28-inch bicycle which is not very friendly to men, the 26-inch bicycle is more suitable for Chen Guoliang's current height.
Pay in one hand and deliver in one hand.
More than two million yuan was spent directly, and the money in my pocket was reduced by half.
But Chen Guoliang didn't feel the slightest bit sorry. He just wanted to thank Yi Zhonghai for his gift.
However, this car cannot be fully put on the road now, and it needs to be stamped again.
Again, although there were no comprehensive tickets in this era, the management of bicycles was not as strict as it was later when tickets were introduced.
But there is no way, this is the old city.
You definitely won’t be able to get on the road without the steel stamp.
The process of smashing the steel stamp is similar to the process of registering car license plates in later generations.
After stamping, you will be given a small booklet, which is the driving license for your bicycle.
It's not enough to just print the books and issue the license. You still have to pay 2 yuan (5 yuan) in vehicle and vessel usage tax every year.
After more than an hour of trouble, I finally completed all the procedures.
After riding his bike, Chen Guoliang was not in a hurry to go back to the courtyard. After all, his mother had to be on duty at the hospital today, so even if he went back, he would have to prepare his own food.
Now that he has a child in his pocket, Chen Guoliang naturally doesn't want to cook.
Besides, there was one thing he hadn't done yet.
More than a month ago, he had planned to buy some seeds for the monkeys in the Shanhe Sheji Tu to plant.
But due to an unexpected injury, this matter has been delayed for a month.
He was not idle during this month. He often used his concentration to improve his reading. Then, in order to prevent himself from starving to death, he bought compressed biscuits twice from the system's mall.
This also resulted in his current points being stuck at 500 points, just 3 point away from opening the level 1 mall.
