Ning Weimin really didn't expect that Zhang Shihui would come to his house in a hurry before he even got up in the morning.
You know, the two of them kept chatting yesterday, and he didn't ride his bicycle home until three in the morning.
Not to mention that the car hadn't even been put into the yard yet, and everyone else was sleeping soundly.
Well, I had only slept for five hours when Zhang Shihui came through the window with a "knock on the mountain and shake the tiger", "bang bang bang", and it started to knock on me.
When he opened his eyes, Ning Weimin thought there was an earthquake.
He never expected that when he opened the curtains, he would see Zhang Shihui lying on the window with his head peeping out.
In particular, this kid was already jealous of the money, and when he opened the door, he became as fierce as a bandit.
Completely ignoring that he had a splitting headache, he forced him to quickly put on his clothes and go get the goods.
Of course, Ning Weimin could understand this kid after listening to Zhang Shihui's story.
He knew that if this business could be completed, it would be of great significance to Zhang Shihui.
It can almost wipe away all his recent bad luck, and it is necessary for him to re-establish his self-confidence.
Although the price is a bit low, the quantity is really not small.
Overall, the profits are not great and it is indeed worth doing.
So Ning Weimin didn't waste any time. After washing, he dressed himself up carefully.
He put on a coat he had just bought, the khaki pants on his legs and the leather shoes on his feet, all of which he wore when he was playing the "second generation".
Until he felt satisfied, he took five hundred yuan and pedaled to the Capital Hotel with Zhang Shihui.
Why go?
Get some foreign exchange coupons.
Ning Weimin boasted yesterday that he had ready-made foreign exchange certificates just to appease Zhang Shihui.
In fact, where is he? We still have to catch him first.
As for Zhang Shihui, he was not suspicious at all. He thought he went directly to the Friendship Store with Ning Weimin to buy something.
As a result, when he arrived at the gate of the Jingcheng Hotel, he realized that Ning Weimin had taken him to the wrong place, and it was too late.
In fact, he went straight to the hotel because Ning Weimin dragged him.
The doubts expressed by individuals are quite weak, and only nervousness remains.
Because it is self-evident what the Capital Hotel represents to people in Beijing these days.
This is a reception venue with a political status second only to Diaoyutai State Guesthouse.
Facing this tall, prestigious building with the sacred glory of gold letters on a red background.
Watching foreigners, overseas Chinese, and Hong Kong residents of various hair colors walking in and out of the gate.
Zhang Shihui lost all her confidence in her heart at once, and it was even more serious than the last time she visited classmate Liu Weijing's wedding room.
There is a saying that best describes his feeling at this time, that is, calf muscles.
But this time, of course it was Ning Wei Minsheng's turn to force him.
He completely ignored Zhang Shihui's shame and hesitated, and just let this kid fight him.
He also avoided answering Zhang Shihui's questions and only said, "Will you come with me? If not, you will wait outside. But I can't guarantee how long you will wait..."
Then how else can Zhang Shihui choose?
Fortunately, there was a completely epoch-making difference between 1979 and 1980. Just this year, the Capital Hotel has just canceled the requirement for doormen to check Chinese ID cards.
No matter how Ning Weimin looked at Zhang Shihui, who had an earthy complexion, he looked like a suspicious person.
But the doorman ignored him.
Perhaps this year, the guard has become accustomed to this, and such an abnormality is normal.
In short, when I walked into the hotel lobby smoothly and safely, I found that there was no obstruction.
Zhang Shihui finally wiped the sweat from his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief.
Unfortunately, this kind of peace of mind didn't last long before he became nervous again.
It was the first time his feet stepped on the carpet. The soft and thick feeling made him not know how to move his legs.
What's more serious is that he was dizzy by the bright lights everywhere in the hall.
There is no way, the premier high-end hotel in Beijing is too luxurious.
This modern, luxurious environment far exceeds the standard of Chongwenmen Hotel, and it has a great visual impact on children who grew up in the alleys of Beijing.
Zhang Shihui felt as if he had walked into a dream, feeling that this was no longer a republic and that he was out of tune with the surrounding environment.
After he and Ning Weimin were sitting in the hotel cafe.
Looking at the steaming tea in front of me, the shiny little silver spoon and the milk jug, I still felt confused for a while.
Zhang Shihui even pinched herself, relying on the pain to prove that all this was true.
Of course, the most scary thing is the consumption level here.
When he found out the price of the pot of English black tea in front of him, it was actually priced at four yuan.
He almost screamed in surprise.
Because that's five pounds of pork, which is enough to buy wine and meat in a small restaurant and have a big meal.
But from this moment on, things started to go completely smoothly.
Perhaps it was the quiet and comfortable environment here that had an effect, although Zhang Shihui was extremely uncomfortable with this kind of sweet tea that had to be mixed with milk.
But sitting on such a comfortable sofa and sipping this expensive thing, the feeling is indeed different from making a glass of high foam by yourself.
It seemed that he suddenly became noble from head to toe.
Even if you put on a show for others to see, you can force yourself to become more stable and consistent with the environment.
Even more fortunately, although there are very few people here in the morning and it is still working time, foreigners use their time differently from Chinese people.
They hadn't sat there for a while, but a blond man and a woman with blue eyes came into the cafe.
As soon as the coffee requested by the two foreigners was served, Ning Weimin was like a long-awaited hunter who finally seized the opportunity and took action without hesitation.
At this time, Zhang Shihui watched intently as Ning Weimin walked over gracefully, and actually grabbed "Niaoyu".
And he was very fluent, without much stumbling.
Without saying a few words, Ning Weimin was easily welcomed by the two foreigners and sat down next to them.
They look like acquaintances, very natural.
The waiter in the cafe didn't even take a glance, and didn't notice anything unusual here.
There was no trouble next, just after Ning Weimin took out the banknotes from his pocket.
The foreign man nodded, took out his wallet and started counting the bills.
In this way, Zhang Shihui watched with his own eyes how Ning Weimin easily obtained 250 yuan in foreign exchange coupons with his English.
The exchange ratio is one to one point.
Indeed, he was a fool, but he was holding this colorful and magical currency that he had never seen with his own eyes.
Not only did Zhang Shihui not think Ning Weimin was stupid at all, but his heart was filled with excitement and admiration.
He really worshiped Ning Weimin as an idol.
What a great guy!
There is strategy, insight, and knowledge.
It's a great ability to get something that others dream of with just your words.
In ancient times, this meant that people bowed their heads and worshiped their master as "Lord".
How could he not follow him to the death?
But this was not the end. After leaving the Jingcheng Hotel a while later, Ning Weimin took Zhang Shihui to the Friendship Store to buy something. That was when Zhang Shihui really opened his eyes.
Because first of all, Friendship Store has stricter management than Jingcheng Hotel.
This is the first foreign-related store in China that evolved from the famous "No. 34 Supply Department".
As a foreign-related venue that specializes in providing services to resident foreign guests and tourist groups visiting China, we still scrupulously check the qualifications of people entering and leaving here.
When Zhang Shihui was stopped, she was really shocked, thinking that her good fortune was about to go to waste.
Thanks to the foreign exchange coupons Ning Weimin had in his hand, he said a few nice words to the guard and showed the coupons, so he was able to enter.
From this we can know what the quality of the foreign exchange coupons marked "equal to RMB" is.
Not only is it money, but it's also a special pass.
It is no exaggeration to say that this thing is the most awesome currency.
Secondly, after entering, Zhang Shihui found that there were so many good things in the Friendship Store, and he was immediately dazzled.
There are jewelry that cannot be seen outside, and you can also buy the most fashionable clothes, shoes, cosmetics, and even various home appliances, Marlboro cigarettes, Swiss watches and other imported goods.
No tickets are required, only foreign exchange coupons are accepted.
For example, imported large color TVs and refrigerators are definitely in short supply.
In ordinary shopping malls, it is a good thing that can make people break their heads and squeeze in.
But in the friendship store, they are all lined up, so you can choose whatever you want.
Can this momentum not make people dizzy?
Another example is the food building, which houses more than a thousand famous and high-quality products from all over the country.
There are countless types of pastries, breads, biscuits, wine, tea, meat, aquatic products, fruits, and fresh vegetables.
You know, the poor children who grew up in the Republic have never seen so many kinds of food?
In addition to the southern fruits that she had tossed, Zhang Shihui also saw many more exotic fruits and vegetables.
He really thought he had entered the Garden of Eden in Western mythology.
Among the cigarettes, in addition to the China and Friendship they want to buy, there are also Sanwu and Marlboro.
In the wine category, in addition to famous wines such as Maotai, Wuliangye, Fenjiu, etc., we also see many foreign wines such as Black Label and Remy Martin.
I even discovered that foreign wine is also produced in China.
Whiskey produced in the capital, Roma wine, and brandy from Russia, Shandong, and Northeast China are all listed here, but I don’t know how they taste.
But the most shocking thing is how cheap the things here are.
Hey, eight bottles of Maotai liquor, eight sticks of Chinese cigarettes, the goods they wanted to buy were returned to Bao Duo'er, and they bought them with 135 yuan of foreign exchange coupons.
Including the cost of exchange rate and consumption, the total is only 152.5 yuan.
Subtract this number from the total amount of two hundred and four to get the profit.
In just half a day, I made a net profit of eighty-seven and a half yuan.
Easy, so easy!
Zhang Shihui finished pulling out the abacus beads silently in her mind, and she was overflowing with happiness on the spot.
The moment he got these things, his mood was completely different from yesterday.
He suddenly felt like a blooming red flower, and life was so colorful, like a beautiful folk song.
I really want to howl so loud right away.
"The flower of Shandandan is bright red and bright..."
