National Tide 1980.

Chapter 370 Shocking Autumn
Since the beginning of autumn, cucumbers and tomatoes in non-staple food stores in Beijing have been placed in piles for sale.

The pile is big, a dozen or so, ranging from a dozen or so.

For a small pile, you need seven or eight cucumbers and five or six tomatoes.

When people buy vegetables, they can often hear people from non-staple food stores yelling from a long distance, "Rub it! Rub it and sell it!"

Or, "Cucumbers, persimmons, big piles."

Not for anything else, just because these two main summer dishes will be in the next season, so we bid farewell to the dinner table.

So the price will be much cheaper, and it will get cheaper and cheaper.

You can often buy a bunch of them for a few cents or a dime.

When it's time to pull the seedlings at the end, you can even buy them in baskets.

Therefore, many old ladies bring their grandchildren and grandchildren, carrying baskets, baskets, or pushing small bamboo carts, and they pile them up as soon as they buy them, and they cost at least a few dozen catties.

Then go back and make tomato sauce.

In this way, there will be a mouthful of fresh vegetables as a spice in the long cold winter.

In contrast, the seasonal autumn melons and snacks on the market have kicked off a rich and colorful prelude.

Although the level of logistics and refrigeration in this era is still low.

Most of the fruits that can be marketed in the capital are only from the outer suburbs and counties, and local products such as Hebei, Henan, and Shandong.

However, since this year is not the era when only economic varieties are planted in a large area, there are many small varieties of fruit in very distinctive places.

So it is still a big exhibition with a wide variety of fruits.

Perhaps even 40 to [-] years later, the variety is even richer.

The earliest fruit to appear in autumn in Beijing is the "tiger cart", also known as "hula bin", which is on the market in late summer and early autumn.

The taste of this fruit is between an apple and a sago, much like a green banana apple, light and crunchy.

But the fragrance is very strong. If you put a plate at home, the room will be full of fragrance, which lasts for a long time, so it is also known as "scented fruit".

In the past, it has always been the favorite thing for wealthy families to display.

After the tigers pulled the carts, green and not yet yellow pears, shaguo as bright as a girl's cheeks, purple and frosty pines, white pears with yellow and flat round teeth, and purple and yellow plums, came to the market one after another.

In addition, there are tree-ripened crabapple fruits, flat peaches, and juicy peaches.

Immediately afterwards, accompanied by the startling sound of "About grapes! Crisp jujubes!" came the "Shanlihong" called "Shanlihong" by the people in Beijing and the "Red Fruit" commonly known by the people in Jinmen.

Then there are the old corn, new taro, and raw sweet potato in the field in early autumn...

So during this period of time, not only were there people on the streets in the capital, but there were shouts everywhere.

Even every household is very busy making tomato sauce.

Because making tomato sauce is not an easy task after all.

First, I have to ask around to get some glass bottles of glucose from the hospital.

Then the whole family has to work together to clean the inside and outside of the bottle, and then cut the bought tomatoes into strips, stuff them in glass bottles, and then put them in a steamer to steam.

After steaming, do not cover the lid, but seal it with a rubber stopper.

If possible, it is best to find a needle to pump out the gas in the bottle, so as to achieve the purpose of vacuum preservation.

In short, this kind of folk life scene is just two words - lively!
Similarly, Ning Weimin's state has become more and more lively since this period of time.

Because as the leader of the sculpture art exhibition, I often have to hold meetings and consultations with people from the Artists Association, members of the organizing committee, and leaders of the Temple of Heaven Park.

He had to charter a taxi for himself again, and lived a non-stop life without going home for a long time.

But it's a pity that most of Ning Weimin's energy was occupied by scenes that required entertainment.

In fact, the progress of the work is actually quite slow, and the most urgent thing to solve.

For example, the bonus system for sales staff, and the employment of people in tobacco shops, he didn't come up with a good solution.

So he has long been tired of the feeling of being on the cusp of the storm and rising in value.

In this superficial false prosperity, the happiness I feel is getting less and less, but the anxiety and impatience are increasing day by day.

Just like on the day of September 9, even if Ning Weimin sneaked away from his busy schedule, he didn't have to go out anymore, he could have a good rest for a day.

But lying on the bed in the guest room of Chongwenmen Hotel, he had to keep making phone calls.

It was a polite reply to some people who had called him before.

Some people called Zhai Gong, and some called the company.

When he was away, someone specially assigned to record it for him.

However, most of the phone calls in the past are of no practical significance.

Because Vanity Fair is so hypocritical, everyone is acting like an actor on a stage.

The information feedback Ning Weimin received was almost all carved out of the same mold.

Almost all the people who came to him were unwilling to express their intentions directly, but only said that they wanted to ask him to find a place to "sit" together.

And this sentence "sit and sit" contains extremely rich content.

Even old friends in the modeling team will come to this set.

For example, Gong Haibin, who has already held a model training class outside, also goes around in circles with Ning Weimin.

"Wei Min, hey, I'm waiting for your call. Are you free recently? Come out and get together? We haven't seen each other for a long time, come out and have a good sit..."

"Don't, don't, do we still use this set? If you have something to say, just tell me. To be honest, a bunch of people want to 'sit' with me every day because of the sculpture art exhibition. When I hear this, my forehead twitches It hurts. You are also entrusted by someone..."

Gong Haibin laughed on the phone.

"Don't get me wrong. What I'm telling you has nothing to do with it. Finding you for something else is a no-brainer for you. I just happen to be earning some money recently. How about we have a meal together? You pick a place... ..."

That's right, this kid has become ambitious since he stepped on the runway, and he doesn't want to live a normal life in peace.

So he and two other male models, Geng Ping and Wu Guoqing, worked together and resigned without hesitation.

Recently, I have just faced social recruitment and started a model training class.

It is said that for the registration fee of 3000 cents, at least two to three thousand people flocked to the office and smashed the iron gate of the office.

Speaking of which, they really can be regarded as the pioneers in the fashion industry on the road of reform.

Although in Ning Weimin's view, Gong Haibin, who has already been the leading actor in a movie, is the least worthy of the three.

He actually did a good job as an actor in the Beijing Film Studio, and this was undoubtedly a wrong move.

"Beach, your idea doesn't sound bad. But I've been dealing with restaurants all the time. You should know that our country is always talking about business at the dinner table in order to find a good excuse for squandering public funds. No To tell you the truth, I've had too many parties recently. My stomach is extremely uncomfortable, so I just want to drink hot bean porridge, why don't you make me a pot, and I'll go to your house to drink..."

Ning Weimin's idea made Gong Haibin obviously "furious".

"Pull it down, I can't afford to mess with you. Let me cook bean porridge for you? What are you thinking about? What time is it? How can I have time? Besides, how busy I am now, don't you know? Here The students are still busy in class, where is the time? Since you have become corrupted to such a degree, then I will not spend money for nothing, and you will complain again. I will directly talk about the matter , I want you to get some clothes, if you want very fashionable and awesome women's clothes, you'd better give them to me at a cost price..."

Ning Weimin took advantage of it now.

"That's right, it's good to be so straightforward earlier. It's a waste of phone bills. What's the matter? This is for that fairy? Have you got a girlfriend?"

"What? It's for a friend's favor, to make a movie. Although I resigned and left, when I could only eat steamed buns to live, the factory rescued me from the printing and dyeing factory. People can't forget their roots, can they?"

"What movie?"

"Oh, "Sunset Street""

""Sunset Street"?"

"What? You know?"

"Is there Chi Zhiqiang and Chen Peisi in this movie?"

"Hey, that's right! What's the matter? You still know someone in Beijing Film Studio? How did you know?"

"Okay, let's stop talking nonsense, I'll help you with this matter. Isn't it just a few clothes. Tomorrow afternoon, you go to the Jianguo Hotel to find me. By the way, didn't you say that they are short of funds? How about you Tell the crew, if they are willing to give our company another thank-you unit at the end of the film, I can also give them some sponsorship money."

"That's good. Hey, you surprised me too much. I should have found you sooner. My buddy, you're not in vain. If you can really give me this face, I really have to treat you to a drink." Just a quick drink..."

"What are you doing, you are helping me and you still want to feed me? I want you to cook bean porridge for me. You owe me this!"

"You boy... All right, I'll take you too. Red bean porridge and mung bean porridge, I owe you two meals. You wait, I will make it for you when my model training class is formalized. You can't do without drinking!"
