Yu Tian went to the city with his third brother and his third sister-in-law.
The business of buying and selling eels is now on the right track.
After delivering the goods as usual, the third brother and the third sister-in-law took the cart and went straight to the provincial capital to find business in the oil cakes.
Yu Tian, on the other hand, went directly to the back of the cinema to explore the small second floor that he wanted to buy in the future.
This small building.
Very shabby.
The geographical location was not considered good in the eyes of people at the time.
At this time, there was a for sale sign posted on the window on the first floor.
According to the selling price in the 1980s, you could buy it for about 2,000 yuan.
Yu Tian originally planned to go in and have a chat and talk about the price.
But as soon as he got off the bicycle, he was stopped by someone.
"Yu Tian? Is that you?"
A young man caught up from behind, his eyes shining as if he had seen some hope.
"Zhang Wei?"
Yu Tian recognized the visitor as Zhang Wei, his junior high school classmate.
"Are you doing well? You've already ridden the bike! I haven't seen you for two or three years. What are you busy with now?"
Zhang Wei came closer and looked at Yu Tian from top to bottom, his eyes frequently locked on the bicycle.
He himself was well dressed.
A blue shirt on the upper body, white trousers on the lower body, and a pair of leather shoes, very stylish.
The eighties.
People who can wear leather shoes must have good economic conditions.
Especially his hair.
Wear it on your back and comb it shiny.
An ordinary face, with a faint fragrance, as if it had been smeared with cream.
"Nothing to do, just busy. What about you?"
Yu Tian didn't want to say more.
The two of them just have the most ordinary relationship as classmates, and their friendship is not deep.
Zhang Wei is a smart person.
I knew Yu Tian had something to hide.
He rolled his eyes, hummed a few words, and then tried his best to invite Yu Tian to have a drink.
It's noon.
Yu Tian couldn't resist such enthusiasm.
After a few words, the two of them found a nearby state-owned hotel.
After taking a seat.
Each ordered a bottle of beer.
"I'm talking about Yu Tian! The old saying is true, you really can't tell a person's face! In the past two years, I heard other classmates mention you and say that you didn't do well! But now, look at it, you can't even ride a bicycle.
After riding it, there must be some way to make money, right?"
Zhang Wei's main purpose was to ask Yu Tian how he got the bicycle.
Three turns and one beep, in the 1980s, it was not something that anyone could have if they wanted to.
Loans were not popular at that time.
Those who can afford it must have hard power.
Zhang Wei said.
He also shook his wrist from time to time, revealing the Shanghai brand watch on his arm.
This is used to prove that his identity is not inferior to Yu Tian.
"There's no other way around it. Just cook some eggs. There's nothing else to do besides this."
Yu Tian knew this kind of mushroom head, and if he didn't give him some information, he would definitely not be able to finish the wine today.
Anyway, if you pour the eggs upside down, they won't last long.
Zhao Tiezhu knew everything, and he was not afraid of others knowing.
"Eggs? That thing... Hey, how much can you earn? Yu Tian, I knew you were smart when I was in school! Let's stop hiding each other and talk about it. What have you been up to recently? Tell me.
, if I can really make money, I will tell you too! To tell you the truth, I also have good things here!"
Zhang Wei really doesn’t like dumping eggs.
He makes excuses and talks frequently.
Yu Tian remained silent and unmoved.
Instead, he acted preemptively and started blocking Zhang Wei's mouth with words.
"There's really nothing else!"
He took a sip and put down the glass, "Old Zhang, no matter how smart I am, can I still be smarter than you? Don't think that I have much money just because I ride a bicycle! My shabby bike is half as good as the watch you have.
It’s not even worth it, right?”
The price of a Shanghai brand watch is around 150 yuan.
In terms of price, it is indeed worth more than a broken bicycle.
"Like it?"
Zhang Wei immediately took it off his wrist, threw it on the table, and said generously, "If you like it, you can take it! You also know that I am the most open-minded person!"
fart!
Yu Tian understood a truth.
People often talk about what they lack.
Zhang Wei is open and bright?
He was ten thousand in disbelief.
This kid never goes to the Three Treasures Hall for anything.
If praying to Buddha and asking for help fails, you will definitely have to take back a lot of the incense money.
Yu Tian will not be fooled by this.
He smiled and pushed back the watch, "Old Zhang, aren't you kidding? How could I dare to ask for your watch? Besides, if my sister-in-law finds out about this, why don't you kill me?
"
Zhang Wei's daughter-in-law is called Sun Xiaoli, and she is a little money-lover.
When the two got married, Yu Tian attended their wedding.
He remembered clearly that Sun Xiaoli acted too obsessed with money.
With many people, her face seemed to be blooming with a smile.
If there were fewer people, she would have wanted to kick them out on the spot.
"separated!"
After finishing his words, Zhang Wei smiled bitterly.
As soon as these words came out, Yu Tian also frowned.
Divorce was really uncommon in the 1980s.
Unlike in the 21st century, divorce is a common occurrence.
People in the 1980s generally had a serious sense of shame.
Even if life becomes difficult, most of them can barely make do.
Just like the line in Zhao Benshan's sketch.
After dealing with it, how can we leave?
"Why did you leave?"
Yu Tian followed the conversation and asked.
"Lost!"
Zhang Wei sighed, filled up his beer, and drank it all in one gulp, his face gradually becoming gloomy.
He lit another cigarette, took a deep breath, and blew it out forcefully, as if he wanted to spit out all the bad luck.
During this time, he was very unhappy.
I was tricked and defrauded of a lot of money.
Two months ago, he met an older brother from out of town.
The eldest brother was a smuggler, and after the two got acquainted, they hit it off.
Zhang Wei provided the money, and the eldest brother provided the connections, and they worked hard for a while.
In the beginning, Zhang Wei really made a lot of money.
At its peak, his household income was close to 10,000 yuan.
But who knows.
What he values is profit, but what his eldest brother values is his principal.
The last time, Zhang Wei wanted to make a lot of money, so he took out most of his principal and prepared to do something big.
But after the eldest brother took the money, not only was there no news soon, but his daughter-in-law, Sun Xiaoli, was also kidnapped with him.
The two men disappeared in the county town and their whereabouts are unknown.
Fortunately, the eldest brother was not caught.
Otherwise, Zhang Wei would definitely have to go in.
After all this hard work, he doesn't have much money anymore, so he can barely keep up his face by relying on these little decorations on his body.
As for Sun Xiaoli, he only said that he was divorced.
The feeling of cuckolding was really uncomfortable, and he didn't want people to laugh at him.
"It's pitiful, but it's okay. With your shrewdness, it's only a matter of time before you make a comeback..."
After Yu Tian heard this, he comforted Zhang Wei with a few words.
"I think so too! Yu Tian, that is, you, I really don't dare to tell others! To be honest, I still have some money, not much, more than five hundred yuan! If you really have any good deals, let's
Let’s work together as a partnership! I’ll contribute the capital, you’ll come up with ideas, and we’ll share the profits equally, how about that?”
Zhang Wei touched his pocket, took out his remaining fifty Great Unity cards, and waved them in front of Yu Tian. There was a hint of cunning in his eyes.
Ordinary people would definitely be shocked if they saw this five hundred yuan.
But this little money is nothing in Yu Tian's eyes.
He was trying to find a reason to reject Zhang Wei.
At the same time, the curtain at the door of the hotel was suddenly opened.
A short and thick man looked around, immediately walked up to Yu Tian, grabbed his arm, and hurried out.
