Chapter 432 The Summer of 97
Zhang Xingjun has money, but no one knows how much money he has.

Don't think he's bored, he's very trendy, he's trendy in denim, he bought it, he bought a popular bomber jacket, he bought it, and now the mobile phone has just appeared, he also bought it, and it's the most expensive and best one.

Smoking is the best, from three or five good friends to Dajian.

And he is usually very frugal. He never takes a car where he can go, and he never spends money where he can. He is very strict.

Except for Zhang Xiaoyue and Liu Guixin, if anyone wanted to spend some money from him, it would be extremely difficult, especially not easy.

It's a very contradictory character.

At the moment, his fishing gear stall in Guojiabao is also doing quite well, but the people in the city haven't picked it up after talking about it for so long.

Zhang Xingbing has not changed much. He works at the epidemic prevention station, and goes to the countryside from time to time for inspections. He is very popular with people. He gets along very happily with the station. He also made some friends in the government compound. .

His character is suitable for mixing in this circle, like a fish in water, with ease.

Liu Guixin and Zhang Qingzhi are completely proud now. The three eldest sons are well-off, and everyone is envied by others. The business of their small shop is also quite good. The granddaughter is also cute and cute. They are happy every day .

The only thing that is on his mind now is the marriage between the eldest and the third child, so the second child doesn't have to worry about it.

……

In a blink of an eye, it was summer.

In the summer of 97, there was no change in Nanfen or Benxi as a whole. Hong Kong's return to the country was jubilant, but it was just a few more slogans on the side of the road, which had little to do with the common people.

If I had to say something, it would be that enterprises like large collectives and small factories in the streets are completely out of business. A large number of enterprises have stopped production and disbanded. Laid-off workers are no longer a new word.

It has become a social trend to resign and buy out self-employment, and more and more people are going to sea.

Self-employment became the most common word, filling newspapers and news.

However, compared with Shenyang Tiexi, Benxi is basically stable, and Benxi Steel is still strong. For a city where more than half of the population is Bengang people, the wind and rain outside are just the scenery and have little effect.

In June, Mr. Chen's house that Zhang Xinglong had rented for a few months, the three rooms behind the cake shop, were all vacant, and Xiao Li and his wife quit the restaurant and went back to their hometown.

The couple believed in everything, the house was filled with various Buddha statues of the God of Wealth, incense was burned every day, and even the kitchen was dedicated to Huang Daxian, which is why his women always change clothes in the kitchen.

I would rather be seen by others than desecrate the eyes of the Buddha statue.

I just don't know how their daily exercise is carried out, whether they cover the quilt or cover the Buddha statue.Zhang Xinglong did not dare to ask.

But it seems that from various gods and Buddhas to Huang Daxian, they didn't take care of them seriously, and the restaurant lost a lot of money and couldn't continue to open.

Since the summer of 95, the catering here in Nanfen has been difficult to manage. The unit has strictly prohibited IOUs. Benxi Steel even took back the right to approve the reception fee from the company.

The government issued a drinking order for public servants, and strictly controlled the phenomenon of eating and drinking during working hours. It would be difficult to open a restaurant all at once. For example, Zhao Shuang's family has already transferred the restaurant.

Pointing at the common people to eat, drink and drink in the restaurant is unacceptable, and this is also a characteristic of small places.

After thinking about it, Zhang Xinglong rented out the entire house of Mr. Chen, decided to expand the store, bought bricks and cement directly, and built the backyard that had been idle for a house, and used it as an operating room.

The oven was replaced with a new large double layer, fresh milk was bought for the freezer, and the molds were replaced with new ones, which were a few centimeters thicker than the one Zheng Xiaodong got.

Tens of thousands of dollars were spent inside and out, and the whole cake shop has been completely remodeled. It is no worse than Hollyland in all aspects, including the products, but there is still no bread.

He thought about it for a long time, and felt that bread was still not suitable for Nanfen, because there must be no floating population and few people.

Bread and cakes were considered light luxury food in 97. They were a bit expensive, and not many people bought them.

The reason why he made up his mind to invest in fresh cream was not because fresh cream was better than butter, but because cream would solidify when it was cold in winter.

Of course, the straightness of whipped cream is also one of the reasons, and it is possible to make more and better shapes.

In winter, customers who bought birthday cakes and went back to make trouble caused him a headache.

Animal cream solidifies when the temperature is low, like chocolate, with hardness, the sweetness will also decrease. This is a normal phenomenon, but it can't help some customers and some people who have nothing to do.

It is said that Zhenlilai's cake is a lie, it is made of wax.Some people believe such nonsense, don't you think it's strange?

Some came over to question, some just came over to cry and make trouble, and the whole thing failed.

Just as he had some spare money, Zhang Xinglong gritted his teeth and poured non-dairy cream. This stuff melts easily at high temperatures, but it has no effect at low temperatures.

The brand has also been changed, with a large spray painting.At the moment, it is more than 1000 square meters for inkjet painting, which is so expensive.

Zhang Xinglong opened up the original rented house with the old Chen's house, dismantled the stove and kang, extended the storefront by a room, installed a small boiler and radiator by himself, and moved back with Li Youju from the fifth floor in front of the district government. .

The shop also hired waiters, they could be regarded as apprentices, Zhang Xinglong taught them how to bake pastries, moon cakes, etc., and also taught them how to decorate flowers, thinking that if there is a chance to open a branch in the future, there will be people available.

At this moment, his heart is a little big, after all, the business is very good, and people have to have some goals.

……

In the summer, Zhang Xingjun brought a girl to the shop and said he was a match, but Zhang Xinglong, Liu Guixin and Zhang Qingzhi were not allowed to say so.

The girl Zhang Xinglong knew, from Zhaojiabao, and Zhao Shuang also knew each other, they had played together a few times before.

It's a little smaller than Zhang Xinglong, but it's pretty long.However, Zhang Xinglong remembers that she has a partner. She has been getting along very well for many years, and the parents of the two families also agreed.

But I can't ask or say anything about it.

In the end, when it was last autumn, something happened. The girl wanted to break up with Zhang Xingjun for a bloody reason. Her boyfriend was about to leave the army and come back.It turned out that he was going to serve in the army.

The two had a big quarrel in Zhang Xinglong's store, and Zhang Xingjun was very angry.

Zhang Xinglong stopped Zhang Xingjun and let the girl go.

"Forget it, brother, she's just playing with you, she doesn't take you seriously at all, no matter how angry you are, you can't keep it, why bother."

"We've been together for more than a year, and everything is fine. I don't care if she's been in a relationship before. What do you call this?"

"You two live together?"

"Ah, it's been more than a year. I've rented a house."

"Forget it. Sooner or later, she knows me too. They have been together since junior high school. It is impossible for them to be with you. Calm down and forget it."

Zhang Xingjun could still listen to Zhang Xinglong's words, so the matter was left alone, but since then Zhang Xingjun has become more bored.

Zhang Xingbing was also in the same position, introduced by someone in the factory, surnamed Wang.

The family is also a worker's family, and his father is broken, but Zhang Xinglong doesn't know him.

There are two girls in the family, and the one who introduced Zhang Xingbing was the eldest.In fact, it's okay, it just doesn't work.

The two got to know each other formally after a period of time.
