National Tide 1980.

Chapter 270 Wisdom

deal with...

This is the greatest understanding of life by the older generation in Beijing.

Because for the people in the capital who came from before the founding of the People's Republic of China.

It can almost experience military chaos, war, occupation, epidemic, hunger, sports... all over and over again.

It is already a great fortune to be able to survive with all beards and tails, to eat a full meal, and to be surrounded by children.

As for the middle generation, those members of the third generation who were born around the founding of the People's Republic of China and were the first to go to the mountains and go to the countryside, also understand the limitations of personal power in the face of life.

Their passionate youth and those passionate and lofty ambitions have already been exhausted in years of intimate dialogue with nature.

Just like the life that Ke Bizhou and Du Jianchun experienced in the TV series "Waste the Years" currently broadcast on TV.

Just like the theme song "An Unforgettable Song" of this TV series.

"A song, a song of depression, a song made of sweat and tears, there are so many melancholy and decadence..."

After so many years, they devoted their youth, experienced many unspeakable joys and sorrows, and finally understood the gap between ideals and reality.

Now with great difficulty, I can return to the city, restore my household registration, and lead a stable life with food, drink, a regular job, and the ability to marry a wife and have children.

It is difficult for them to make unrealistic demands on life.

And the younger generation of recent graduates.

Even if they are dissatisfied and dissatisfied, they have many opinions and resentments about life.

so what?

They cannot avoid the follow-up effects of the population tide.

It is impossible to escape the objective reality that more than 700 million educated youths have returned to the cities, increasing the employment pressure in the cities.

They have to make a choice about their future.

In the end, don't be too picky, obey the school's assignment and find a job first.

Still eating rice at home, listening to the nagging of parents and family members, and joining the ranks of as many as 5401 million unemployed youths across the country.

Can you not deal with it?

If you don't deal with it, don't live, and you have to deal with it to survive

So cramped alleys, crowded courtyards.

The parents who repeat daily necessities are short-sighted, boring jobs that can only be exchanged for meager salaries.

A penny has to be broken into eight petals, and careful planning is implemented in every corner of life through diligence and thrift.

It has become a common state for most people in Beijing, and this state has to be defined as a kind of happiness.

So it is conceivable that in such a social situation.

In order to put an end to waste, the government advocates collective weddings and simplified marriages.

If anyone can stand up and say, "I can't deal with my marriage, I can't make do with it. I don't care about money, so I have to do it according to my own ideas!"

What an awesome thing this is!

In particular, the person who said this sentence did not come from a family at the top of the social pyramid, but from an ordinary grassroots family.

This kind of privilege and strength does not come from my ancestors or Lao Tzu, but comes from my own struggle.

It would be more like a legend of common people's inspiration, a myth of rising against the trend.

And this person does exist!He is Zhang Shihui!

Zhang Shihui, who was lucky enough to meet Ning Weimin and seized the opportunity, finally ushered in her wedding day with Liu Weijing in May 1982.

Through a wedding that can be called super luxurious and almost perfect, he is very honored to become the contemporary God of the capital in the 80s!

The marriage between him and Liu Weijing not only brought surprises to his family, but also shocked his leaders and colleagues, fulfilling his original wish and dream.

As a result, he has become an idol admired and envied by many people around him!

If you use an appropriate metaphor to describe this kind of effect like a rocket flying through the sky, shining people's eyes.

In fact, it sounds a bit like the billboard that Japan's Sony Corporation just erected this month at the south entrance of Wangfujing, the most famous commercial street in the Republic of China.

The billboard was about four meters high and six meters wide. It was a huge billboard, and almost all the modern home appliances produced by Sony were listed on it.

Let all the people who pass this street and this intersection can't help but look up.

And almost everyone who sees this ad will feel overwhelmed and have a dream of almost the same pattern in their hearts.

It is to hope that their own future life will be reshaped by the fashionable and modern lifestyle on this billboard.

In short, Zhang Shihui played a role similar to this Sony billboard to the people around him.

He also provided everyone with the most standard example of happiness, which can be called "the best specimen".

This is no exaggeration.

Because the superiority of Zhang Shihui and Liu Weijing's marriage is reflected in all aspects.

If you make an intuitive comparison between their marriages and other people's marriages in the contemporary era, you can easily find how huge this gap is, which is definitely beyond the imagination of normal people.

First, let's talk about furniture.

Most of the newcomers in this year are dissatisfied with the rough and rustic brown-red furniture under the dim fluorescent lights of the furniture store.

The price is expensive, and furniture tickets are required, and it is not good-looking.

So everyone basically chooses to invite a carpenter to make furniture at home.

In the early 70s, "36 legs" was fashionable.

Over time, this "leg" is more and more.

In a few years, Kung Fu became "48 legs", and later became "56 legs".

And the reason why the number of legs did not continue to increase is because these legs have to be built on the basis of housing.

In the 80s, due to the increase in population and the tightening of urban housing, the popular style of furniture changed drastically, and modular furniture became popular.

Several square boxes can be put together, or they can be moved and combined to update.

The color is the color of Czech furniture, clear water and wax, or very light yellow.

Needless to say, more than a dozen materials such as wood, fiberboard, water glue, paint, nails, etc. are required to make furniture.

You have to hire a carpenter, and you need a place, and those with good cigarettes, good wine, and good food are waiting for you.

The things involved here are extremely trivial and troublesome.

Just preparing materials and wood, and the required meat tickets and oil tickets are enough to cause headaches for the owner, and it may not save much money in the end.

But it’s impossible not to do it. This is the basic equipment for young men and women to get married these days.

If anyone is going to get married without a cabinet, his friends will be talking about it in private.

"This is the most basic thing, alas, I didn't even make a combination cabinet, and I'm so poor that I'm still married!"

On the other hand, Zhang Shihui was very chic, so he didn't have to worry about these things at all.

You know, ever since Ning Weimin went to work in Pilkardton, he took care of the Erdao dealer's business by himself, and all the profits fell into his own pocket.

Now he has RMB in his pocket, foreign exchange certificates and foreign exchange certificates, and there is a ready-made house where furniture can be placed at home.

Spend money to buy ready-made ones, why bother.

For him, I'm afraid the only troublesome thing is that he didn't expect it.

When Liu Weijing was shopping, he accidentally saw a set of "tiger legs" furniture in Xisi Furniture Store, and he couldn't help but like it.

That is all imported Romanian furniture, and you must have a specially approved ticket to buy it.

There are not many sets in total, and many officials can't get their hands on it.

It's not like anyone who is willing to pay a price of [-] can buy it.

Fortunately, Zhang Shihui also has her own cleverness.

Since he knows how to use the method of throwing steel coins to divert the tiger away from the mountain and get rid of the occupied stool,

Then with his IQ, it would not be too difficult to get rid of this set of furniture by taking the medicine according to the prescription.

No, after searching for a day, he pretended to be a plumber and went to the furniture store with a bag of tools on his back.

Then just follow the front of the furniture, back and forth, wandering endlessly.

The salesperson knew that there was no ticket when he saw him, so he didn't bother to talk to him.

But Zhang Shihui took advantage of the salesperson's carelessness and made an unexpected move that could startle people's eyes.

He pretended to turn around in front of the mirror of the big wardrobe, and deliberately punched the steel pipe out of the tool bag.

There was only a "bang" sound, and the mirror of the big wardrobe was shattered.

Can the salesperson be in a hurry?

At that time, I jumped up, "Oh, you can't run away, you have to pay."

Just like that, Zhang Shihui easily achieved her goal without even opening her mouth.

Afterwards, this kid was of course very complacent and boasted for a long time.

He even specially called Ning Weimin to his home to see that set of furniture, showing off in front of Ning Weimin.

But a wise man is bound to lose something if he thinks about it.

Ning Weimin easily picked a real problem with the furniture that Zhang Shihui got back.

He suggested to Zhang Shihui that it is best to return the two single sofas in the house and replace them with a two-meter-long sofa, preferably made of genuine leather.

At the beginning, Zhang Shihui was a little puzzled, and very stubbornly questioned Ning Weimin's suggestion.

"Why should I change it? How good are two separate ones? One two-meter-long one takes up more space, my house is not big, and there are silly big and big ones, what do you think? Dude, Why did you give me such a bad trick?"

And Ning Weimin's answer was absolutely perfect.

"The spatula still touches the edge of the pot. Let me ask you something, are you sure you can sleep in bed every day after you get married?"

Yes, Zhang Shihui was immediately stopped by the question.

After a moment of awakening, he glanced at Ning Weimin and couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.

"Dude, wise! Your opinion is too good!"
