Counterattack 1988

Chapter 115 Paying the bill storm 【Subscription】

"Auntie!" Wang Lin called out to Qian Yuying outside.

Qian Yuying was walking, when she heard the shout, she looked around in surprise, and then she saw Wang Lin sitting in the car.

"Wang Lin? Where did you get this car?" Qian Yuying asked.

"newly bought."

"You bought it?"

"Yes."

"This car? This is a Mercedes-Benz! Isn't it cheap? It costs hundreds of thousands, right?"

"It's not expensive, about a million!"

"..."

Qian Yuying almost exclaimed!
However, she still had to maintain a certain demeanor in front of Wang Lin, and said with a slight smile, "Hey, you're doing well now! A car worth hundreds of thousands, you can buy it as soon as you say it!"

Based on the purchasing power of 88, when converted to later generations, it is calculated by 20 times, and 100 million is equivalent to 2000 million in [-] years!
Driving such a Mercedes-Benz in 88 was more expensive than driving a Porsche 918 RSR in later generations!

Qian Yuying's heart was full of waves and could not calm down.

She still vaguely remembered how Wang Lin came to her home to borrow money with his little daughter Zhou Porridge a few months ago!
At that time, he was someone who couldn't even come up with tens of thousands of dollars!

In a blink of an eye, how long has it been?

This Wang Lin actually drove a small car, and he bought a Mercedes-Benz!

Let’s talk about this Mercedes-Benz, it’s really pretty, and everyone loves it!
"Auntie, where are you going? Do you want me to give you a lift?" Wang Lin asked.

"Oh, isn't it closed today? I'm going to the First Department Store to buy some things."

"Auntie, please get in the car. I just drop by and take you to the gate over there."

"No, I'll be there in a few steps."

Li Wenxiu got out of the car, helped open the rear door, and said with a smile, "Auntie, get in the car! The car has air conditioning, so it's cool."

Qian Yuying didn't insist anymore and got into the car.

Li Wenjuan smiled sweetly: "Hello, Auntie!"

"Hello." Qian Yuying nodded.

Wang Lin started the car and went to the No. [-] Department Store.

Qian Yuying asked: "Li Wenxiu, have you gone to the hospital for a physical examination? Pregnancy is not a trivial matter, and it must be checked regularly, and you must not be careless."

Li Wenxiu glanced at Wang Lin, saw that he was silent, and said, "Thank you, auntie, I understand."

Wang Lin asked, "Auntie, why did you come out alone? Where are Brother Jun and the others?"

"Xiaojun asked someone to go out to watch a movie. Xiaoxia said that she wanted to catch up on a manuscript, but she didn't want to come out. Xiaoyu——she went on a trip."

Wang Lin thought, Zhou Porridge hasn't come back yet?

It was not easy for him to ask too many questions, and Qian Yuying would probably lose her temper again if she continued to ask.

Wang Lin sent Qian Yuying to the entrance of the No. [-] Department Store, and asked, "Auntie, what do you want to buy? When will you be home? I'll come pick you up in the afternoon?"

Qian Yuying smiled and said, "No need, I'm just wandering around, I want to tear a few feet of cloth and make two clothes."

Wang Lindao: "You want to make clothes? What a coincidence, my Wenxiu knows how to make clothes, and she has opened a clothing workshop now! Just tell us what kind of clothes you want, and ask Wenxiu to make them for you."

Li Wenxiu said: "Yes, Auntie, you can find me if you want to make clothes. I have ready-made fabrics over there, and I will help you make them for free, even the fabrics are free."

Qian Yuying said, "Why is this so embarrassing?"

Li Wenxiu said: "We are so familiar, so don't be polite."

Qian Yuying pondered and said: "Well, I'll pull the cloth. I'll pull the cloth later and send it to your house. You can help me make two sets of clothes."

Wang Lindao: "How can I bother you to come to my house! Wenxiu and I will go to your house in the evening and help you measure the size."

Qian Yuying heard him say that the couple came together, but she didn't refuse, and said, "Okay, then it's settled. Thank you for your hard work. Goodbye."

She said, turned and walked into the door of the department store.

Li Wenjuan said, "Why doesn't she even ride a bicycle?"

Wang Lindao: "Aunt Qian doesn't know how to ride a bicycle. And it's only a few streets away. People of the older generation like to take a walk, stroll around, and take a look at the city's scenery."

He said to Li Wenxiu: "As for helping her make clothes, you should be careful, and don't forget it when the time comes. She also helped to issue our pregnancy certificate!"

"Well, I know."

The car drove up to the front of the International Hotel, and the doorman looked at the car, stepped forward enthusiastically, helped open the door, and made a gesture of please get off.

After sisters Li Wenxiu got out of the car, Wang Lin parked the car.

The three entered the inner hall together.

"Listen to Wenjuan, shall we eat Western food today?" Wang Lin asked Li Wenxiu.

"Just spoil her!" Li Wenxiu laughed, "When she gets married in the future, let's see who else spoils her!"

Li Wenjuan giggled: "Sister, let's just eat this once! Haven't eaten it before!"

Li Wenxiu said: "Eat! Eat! Let's see if you can gain two catties of meat after eating this western food!"

The three sat down and ordered a meal.

Li Wenjuan also ordered a cup of coffee for everyone.

Coffee was served quickly.

Li Wenxiu took a sip: "It's so bitter!"

Wang Lin picked up the tongs, put two cubes of sugar into her cup, and said, "Stir gently with a spoon first, and when the sugar melts, you can drink it without bitterness."

Li Wenxiu stirred the sugar well as he said, took another sip, and said with a smile, "It really isn't bitter, how do you know that? Who did you drink with?"

"I had coffee with Zhou Xia once."

"Zhou Xia? Zhou Porridge's older sister?"

"Yes."

"Why are you with her sister again?"

"Can you stop insinuating? Why am I with her? Can't I talk to her about something?"

"I didn't say anything! Why are you so excited?"

Li Wenjuan said: "Brother-in-law, this place is very nice, very romantic. You can bring me here often in the future!"

Wang Lin responded: "Hehe, good!"

Li Wenxiu said: "It's very expensive, how can I come here often? I just bought a car, so can't I save a little?"

Wang Lindao: "Isn't making money just for enjoying? Don't be like an ascetic all day long."

Li Wenxiu was about to speak when she suddenly heard a young man shouting towards her: "Isn't this Wenxiu?"

When Wang Lin heard the man call out the word "Wenxiu", he thought to himself that the relationship between this man and Li Wenxiu is not simple, is it?

He couldn't help but look at the man.

It was a young man, wearing a decent suit and shiny leather shoes. He was not tall, only about [-] meters tall, and he was very strong.

"Yang Xiaodong?" Li Wenxiu smiled, "I haven't seen you since graduation. Where did you go?"

"First, I was assigned to Shencheng Tool Factory. After working for half a year, I felt too tired, so I resigned and went to sea."

"You have such a big heart! How many people want to enter the factory but can't enter, how dare you go to sea?" Li Wenxiu shook her head. She is a firm believer in an iron rice bowl, and it would be incredible to see others resign and go to sea.

"The tool factory only costs 80 yuan a month. What can I buy? One meal here will save you." Yang Xiaodong smiled softly, "Now is the era of reform and opening up, so we must be flexible in our thinking!"

"Then what are you doing now?"

"I run my own factory."

"Not bad! What are you producing?"

"A garment factory that mainly produces jeans."

"Jeans? Is it big? Is the business good?"

"It's okay, I'm just starting out now, and I hired a dozen workers to do things."

"Oh. Then do you produce and sell yourself? Or do you only process and produce?"

"I'm mainly engaged in production. When the scale is bigger, I will make brand clothing in the future! Wenxiu, I haven't seen you for two years, you are getting more and more beautiful."

"No way, I'm getting old!" Li Wenxiu pursed her lips and smiled.

"Who are these two? Is this your sister? This is your brother?"

"This is my sister Li Wenjuan, and this is my lover Wang Lin."

"Love?" Yang Xiaodong was taken aback, and made an exaggerated expression, "Are you married? When did it happen? Why didn't I know? You are wrong, you didn't notify us of your marriage?"

Li Wenxiu said: "There wasn't any wine on display, just a few tables at home had a meal. There's no need to be extravagant."

Yang Xiaodong looked at Wang Lin and asked, "What kind of job does your lover do?"

Li Wenxiu said: "He, like me, is a worker in Shenfang Factory!"

Yang Xiaodong shook his head lightly: "You are the school belle of our Shencheng Industrial Technical School, why did you get married? We thought that with your high standards and high requirements, you would definitely find a big boss or a big cadre!"

Hearing this, Wang Lin couldn't help but sneered, thinking that you are really interesting, you don't know she's married, you know she's married, and I'm sitting next to her, you still say this talk?what do you mean?
Li Wenjuan also heard the problem, and said, "My brother-in-law is fine!"

Yang Xiaodong chuckled: "They're all workers, so it's okay! It's just that the consumption here is not low. How about it, I'm the host today, and I'll treat you!"

Li Wenjuan said: "You don't need to treat me, my brother-in-law is rich!"

Li Wenxiu said in a low voice: "Wenjuan, this is my technical secondary school classmate, don't be so aggressive with him."

Li Wenjuan rolled her eyes and said, "You really want to treat me, that's fine, we just haven't paid the bill yet! Please help us pay the bill! Thank you!"

Yang Xiaodong was rather arrogant. He called the waiter and said, "I will pay for this table. How much is it?"

"Let me see, hello, sir, the total cost of this table is 680 yuan." The waiter looked at the bill and said.

Yang Xiaodong was taken aback: "680 yuan?"

Li Wenxiu was also surprised: "Is it so expensive?"

Wang Lin said calmly: "Wenjuan ordered two bottles of foreign wine worth 300 yuan."

Li Wenjuan pursed her lips and said, "If he can't afford the bill, don't pay the bill! Anyway, brother-in-law buys me a drink!"

Yang Xiaodong's face was turning green and white. The persona he set up was a factory owner, so he couldn't live up to his words in front of his beautiful classmates, right?That's too embarrassing, a few hundred dollars is not a big deal, but losing face is a big deal!
He quickly took out the money.

Li Wenxiu stood up and said, "Yang Xiaodong, you don't have to pay the bill, we will pay for it ourselves!"

Yang Xiaodong said: "Give me a face, this order, I bought it!"

As he spoke, he handed all the money in his pocket to the waiter.

Li Wenxiu said: "How embarrassing is that? Hundreds of dollars!"

Yang Xiaodong said: "Hey! I'll treat it as a wedding gift for you! It's only a few dollars! We don't have to worry about it among our classmates."

Li Wenxiu glared at her younger sister: "Wenjuan, why do you order such expensive wine? Just order two bottles for a little bit! Do you think you are rich?"

Li Wenjuan plausibly said: "I haven't drank it before, so I want to try it! Two bottles of wine for three people is not too much!"

Wang Lindao: "This wine is not too expensive! Now the national wine Moutai has risen to 298 yuan a bottle!"

Li Wenxiu said: "Then drink Moutai, I still have four or five hundred bottles of Moutai at home!"

After hearing this, Yang Xiaodong thought to himself that a bottle of Moutai costs 300 yuan, but you have 500 bottles at home?That's [-] yuan?how could it be possible?You and your spouse are both workers of Shenfang Factory. The combined salary of the two is only two hundred yuan a month. You can't save so much money in a lifetime!This western meal alone is enough for the couple to earn half a year!
He felt that this Li Wenxiu was really a face-saving person!

"Sir, you don't have enough money, you're still short of a hundred!" The waiter counted the money Yang Xiaodong handed over.

Yang Xiaodong blushed and said, "Not enough? No way!"

Wang Lin took out the money, counted out seven hundred, and handed it to the waiter: "I'll pay the bill, return the money in your hand to this gentleman!"

The waiter nodded, returned Yang Xiaodong's money, and took Wang Lin's money.

Wang Lindao: "The remaining twenty, I'll give you a tip."

"Thank you sir!" The waiter smiled.

Yang Xiaodong laughed awkwardly, and said with a smile, "Wenxiu, I still have guests here, so I'll contact you later."

"Okay!" Li Wenxiu nodded.

Wang Lin smiled and said, "You have a good relationship with him?"

Li Wenxiu said: "How can it be! When I was in school, I didn't speak a few words to him! Moreover, this guy is very naughty, he always likes to provoke girls, and he can make people anxious every time!"

Wang Lindao: "Then he must like you. Some boys express their love in different ways, they use all kinds of naughty tricks to attract girls' attention."

"Impossible!" Li Wenxiu said, "Let's eat!"

She looked at the two bottles of foreign wine, and her heart ached: "Three hundred yuan a bottle? Wenjuan, you are really willing!"

Li Wenjuan said: "Brother-in-law said, let me order it! I have never drank foreign wine, what's the matter after tasting it?"

Li Wenxiu said: "Aren't there cheap ones? Why don't you order the ones that cost more than ten yuan a bottle?"

Li Wenjuan smiled triumphantly: "You can drink whatever you want, brother-in-law, don't you think so?"

Wang Lin laughed and said, "Yes, drink it! If your sister doesn't drink it, we'll each have a bottle!"

Li Wenxiu said: "Why don't I drink it? I've ordered everything! I'll drink it too! I'll also have a taste of foreign wine that costs [-] yuan a bottle! Back in the factory, I can brag with my sisters!"

Li Wenjuan said: "Sister, three hundred yuan of wine, what do you have to brag about? That one million Mercedes-Benz is enough for you to brag about for a lifetime!"

Li Wenxiu smiled sweetly, picked up the wine bottle, poured a glass of wine, and handed it to Wang Lin.

Li Wenjuan said: "Sister, I want it too!"

Li Wenxiu said: "He is the head of the family, so of course let him drink first!"

Li Wenjuan picked up another bottle of wine: "I'll do it myself!"

Wang Lin put the wine glass in front of Li Wenxiu: "You two each have a bottle. I want to drive, so I won't drink."

Li Wenjuan said: "What are you afraid of! Anyway, no traffic police will arrest you."

Wang Lindao: "It's better for me to be conscious, there are so many people on the road! Don't drink and drive, and don't drink while driving!"

Li Wenxiu said: "Alright, you can go home and drink Moutai!"

She picked up the wine glass and tasted it lightly: "It's not bad, this taste is better than white wine, I like it quite a bit."

Wang Lindao: "This is wine. Drinking it is good for your heart. You women can also beautify your face if you drink this."

Li Wenxiu said: "Even if it's too expensive, I can't drink it often."

Wang Lin had a thought, thinking that he always heard people say that Lafite in 82 was delicious, and now the price of national wine is crazy, does this foreign wine have gone up?It’s good to stock up dozens of boxes and drink slowly at home!
Under Wang Lin's guidance, Li Wenxiu cut up the steak and ate it, tasted it, and said with a smile, "That's it, so-so, not very tasty, I won't eat it next time!"

Li Wenjuan said: "I think it's delicious, brother-in-law, next time you bring me to eat alone."

Li Wenxiu said: "Worshiping the foreign and flattering the foreign!"

After dinner, the sisters of the Li family drank two bottles of foreign wine, their faces were flushed, and they were very beautiful.

The three of them left the hotel, and met Yang Xiaodong at the door. Yang Xiaodong had just parted from his friend, and when he saw Li Wenxiu approaching, he was fascinated by her shocking beauty, stunned, and stood there, waiting for Wang Lin and the others to come over.
