The sky was clear and the sun, emitting the red light of morning glow, was already high in the sky.
In order to go to the city and cooperate with his plan, Wu Jianye borrowed a white shirt and a pair of bell-bottom pants from Zheng Xiaoning, and borrowed his large leather shoes from Ma Huiwu before officially going out.
With this outfit, he was still the most fashionable outfit even after entering the city. In addition, Wu Jianye washed his hair specially, which made him look somewhat handsome.
"Old Wu, you can do it this way. You should have signed up for the acting department!" Feng Xiaoning stood next to Wu Jianye. He went to the city with Wu Jianye today, but he went home to improve his food and pick up some living expenses.
necessity.
"Don't forget to take a few AA batteries, your tape recorder is almost like a opera singer!" Wu Jianye warned.
Nowadays, recorders still use AA batteries, unlike later when they basically used AA batteries or AA batteries.
"Don't worry, don't forget our bet yesterday!" Feng Xiaoning waved his hand.
"Just wait and wash my socks for a month!" Wu Jianye was full of confidence.
After saying this, the two came to the gate of the academy. There was a bare wall and an iron gate that could allow two cars to pass through. There was a wooden sign hanging at the door that read 'Yenjing Film Academy'!
The person who inscribed the inscription was not a famous person, but a teacher in the school. The character "shadow" is still an abbreviation, consisting of a "well" character and three characters.
It is incomparable to the grand entrance of the future Yanjing Film Academy.
There are farmers growing crops around, but they are also annoyed by the students in the college...
The two of them walked and chatted. After more than ten minutes, they arrived at the bus stop for bus No. 345. Since Zhuxinzhuang was not the departure station, many people wanted to go to Beijing at this time, so Wu Jianye arrived at the bus stop.
After getting on the bus with Feng Xiaoning, there was no seat at all. It was good to be independent without Golden Rooster.
When getting on the bus, Wu Jianye was a little worried that his "ticket" would be recognized, but it turned out that the conductor just glanced at them and ignored them.
This actually made Wu Jianye breathe a sigh of relief.
The crowded crowd in the car made Wu Jianye and Feng Xiaoning lose interest in chatting, and the two of them wandered all the way to Deshengmen.
"Okay, Lao Wu, I'm going home. In fact, it's just about washing socks for a month. Why don't you go home with me and eat?" Feng Xiaoning invited Wu Jianye and said.
"It's not clear who will wash whom, okay, let's go!" Wu Jianye wiped the sweat from his face and walked straight towards Jianguomen. In fact, there is a bus between the two places.
The ticket is only 1 jiao, but Wu Jianye only has 2 jiao and 5 cents in his pocket now, so he doesn't dare to cheat.
Buses are running around, and occasionally you can see people riding bicycles with people passing by. There is a sense of pride on the faces of the cyclists. It is like driving people on the streets in BMWs in later generations. Cars are relatively rare.
Yes, they are basically Jim and Volga produced in Eastern Europe, running like a tractor.
After about half an hour, Wu Jianye finally saw the sign of Friendship Store. The place seemed much cleaner than the one on the way here, and there were many more foreigners with yellow hair and blue eyes on the street.
Some foreigners were accompanied by one or two Chinese people, and some foreigners hung up their cameras and wandered around leisurely, taking a couple of photos from time to time.
Wu Jian came to the Friendship Store at night, naturally not to buy anything. Not to mention that he only had 2.5 cents in his pocket, even if he had dozens of yuan, it would be useless. If he wanted to buy something here, he had to use foreign exchange coupons.
And Wu Jianye came here just to be a scalper.
Although foreigners can buy things in Friendship Stores with their foreign exchange certificates, they cannot only buy things in Friendship Stores. They need Chinese money elsewhere. And domestic people who want to buy things in Friendship Stores can only rely on exchange.
Foreign exchange coupons.
The price difference is Wu Jianye's goal today.
However, Wu Jianye didn't rush over to say hello to the foreigner. Now he only had 2.5 cents in his pocket. Even if a foreigner wanted to change money, he couldn't give it out.
The important thing is to find it first, and then use the next family’s money to exchange for the foreigner’s foreign exchange certificates, so that he can become a happy middleman...
After finding a shady place, Wu Jianye began to observe the environment here.
Not everyone can be a business owner. In this era, the business of reselling foreign exchange certificates is basically monopolized by the stubborn masters of the Forty-Nine City. If Wu Jianye enters the market rashly, he will probably lose money without making any money.
Got beaten up.
After observing for a while, Wu Jianye found two young people dressed in fashionable clothes. Every time he found a foreigner, it would be fine if the foreigner had an interpreter by his side. If there was no interpreter, he could only talk and gesture. In this case,
It will be more difficult to conclude a deal.
Seeing them walking away beside a few foreigners in frustration, Wu Jianye raised the corner of his mouth slightly and found his next home...
"Lao Cao, that bastard, will get sick sooner or later. If he gets sick at this time, all his business will be lost today!" Chen Ming cursed and looked at the few foreign exchange coupons in his hand.
"What can be done about this? The three of us can only make do with Lao Cao's English!" Zhao Lei also looked helpless.
"Damn it, when these foreigners come to our Sijiu City, they have to learn Mandarin first!" Chen Ming said still looking angrily.
"Okay, stop complaining, let's think about what to do with the remaining time. There is still most of the day!" Zhao Lei muttered.
"What else can we do? Cold salad, it seems that there is no chance today, just go home early." Chen Ming said.
Zhao Lei looked a little depressed, thinking that with the money he earned today, plus what he had saved some time ago, he would be able to buy a tape recorder for his sister, who was thinking about going abroad every day, to learn English.
"You two seem to be in a bit of trouble!" At this time, a voice suddenly sounded in their ears.
Both of their expressions changed, revealing a look of horror. They looked around and saw a young man with a smile on his face, wearing a white shirt, bell-bottom pants, and big-leaf shoes. He looked somewhat elegant.
Could it be that some stubborn master came here in person?
Was it noticed so quickly?
"Who are you?" Chen Ming asked carefully, while his eyes were swaying from side to side to see if there was anyone behind the young man. Fortunately, he was the only one.
At this time, private exchange of foreign exchange certificates was actually a gray business, with the government overseeing it above and a group of stubborn masterminds robbing the business below. Neither Chen Ming nor Zhao Lei could bear the blame.
"Don't be nervous. My name is Wu Jianye. I have been observing the two of you for a long time, and I see that they seem to be missing a helper!" The young man is naturally Wu Jianye.
Ever since he targeted the two of them, Wu Jianye had been observing them carefully. First, there was no translator around the two of them, which showed that they were a small gang. Then Wu Jianye saw that the two of them were very careful when touching each other.
When I saw other scalpers, they were all hiding, which reinforced Wu Jianye's guess that the two of them were most likely working alone.
After more than an hour, the two of them repeatedly hit the wall and did not make a few orders at all. Looking at the two people's decadent expressions, Wu Jianye knew that they already wanted to give up. This was the best time for him to appear.
