Ordinary life starting from a courtyard

Chapter 19: Chapter 19: The Radio
Zhou Wenliang came to the waste recycling station in Beixinqiao.

He's trying to get money, he's out of money, and after buying bikes and watches from trust shops, he's running out of money.

I can't figure it out, I'm out of food.

How can a man have no money in his hands?

Beixinqiao Waste Recycling Station, why come here, because it is big, he didn't go to the small family workshop collection stations in alleys and streets.

Too small for nothing.

Small waste stations in major alleys and streets are collection points, and all collected materials are sent to Beixinqiao Waste Collection Station for sorting.

So Zhou Wenliang just came here, pushed the car through the door, took a look,
The yard here is quite big, and all kinds of domestic waste products are neatly stacked. A group of staff on the far right are sorting, and a few people in front are using forks to pick up waste paper and load it on the liberation car.

"Little comrade, what are you looking for?" A woman wearing a towel asked.

Zhou Wenliang saw that this eldest sister was a female worker sorting rags, and there were four other female workers beside her.

"Hello, sister, my radio is broken. I'll come here and find some parts to fix it."

At this time, the waste station also sells things outside. It is cheap and does not require a ticket. After all, it is waste recycling. Many people come here to shop for treasures. When the stool at home is broken, they come to see if there are any suitable stool legs in the dilapidated home, which can match with the home. set.

The eldest sister was stunned, and pointed to a shed in the southeast corner, "Oh, over there, where are the electrical appliances..."

"Thank you big sister." Zhou Wenliang thanked quickly, parked the car, and passed.

The shed is made of asbestos tiles, more than ten meters long, and a pile of electronic waste is placed there.

Such as radios, record players, electric irons, well, few people use these things, and most of them don't iron clothes. Even if they iron clothes occasionally, they use iron irons that are first heated on the stove.

The electric iron consumes too much electricity, and there is the electric stove, which consumes even more electricity, um, the kind that burns electric stove wire in a ceramic plate.

To use this thing, you have to report to the power supply station, and you can use it only after you have a letter of introduction. It is against the law to use it in private.Basically, no one uses it, it consumes too much electricity, and no one can afford it.

Zhou Wenliang picked up a flashlight and looked at it. It was broken. It might be because the wire inside was broken. The flashlight was quite new, so he went back to repair it.

Zhou Wenliang brought out another tape recorder, an old-fashioned tape recorder that uses reel-to-reel tape.

After looking at it, there is no tape, and the shell is cracked, which is worthless, but the electronic tube inside can be removed.

This time he came here to look for parts and make ore radios, just to see if he could make a fortune.

He made ore radios when he was in elementary school. At that time, the whole class knew it. However, it was diodes at that time. At that time, there were no diode radios in China, and it would be six or five years later.

Most domestic radios are electronic tube radios. There is nothing else about electronic tube radios, except that they are expensive, have good sound quality, and are delicate.

Diode radios are cheap, have poor sound quality, and are compact.

After a lot of work, Zhou Wenliang removed a lot of parts, and found three relatively complete radios with new casings.

He can fix a broken radio.

Zhou Wenliang carried a bunch of parts and three radios and went to the door.

"Master, look at the money."

There was a table on the steps of the door, and an old man was sitting here, looking at what Zhou Wenliang put on the table, he stretched out his hand to pull it, and asked, "Little comrade, why are you buying so many electronic components?"

Seeing his skeptical look, Zhou Wenliang explained with a smile: "My radio is broken. I want to try to see if it can be fixed. I don't know which part is broken. I bought so many and went back to try one by one."

The old man nodded and felt relieved, as long as he is not a bad enemy agent, he looked at the parts and the broken radio one by one, and said, "A total of 8 yuan."

Zhou Wenliang checked out and carried his things, rode home, passed by a department store, went in to buy tools, and then rode home. When he entered the courtyard, he saw the third mother chatting with an old lady in the courtyard.

When the old women saw Zhou Wenliang coming back, they immediately smiled: "Liangzi, you're back, and I said I'm looking for you."

Zhou Wenliang said helplessly: "Aunt Wu, what do you want me to do? If it's an introduction, then forget it. I'm still young, so I don't think about it."

A well-known matchmaker near Aunt Wu has been coming here to the courtyard recently, just to introduce Zhou Wenliang to someone. How many people have entrusted her to come here.

Zhou Wenliang is really the same as Tang Seng meat. He is a rare recruit. Little girls liked him before, but now old ladies like him, especially when he is a projectionist and his salary is 50 yuan less, he likes him even more.

If it looks good, Zhou Wenliang can still think about it, but the introductions are a bit unsatisfactory.

The women introduced all have the following characteristics, big lips, tall and strong bodies, big bones, but not much flesh on their bodies, and one is big buttocks!

It is said that these requirements are all requested by Zhou's mother. The big mouth and eating all directions prove that the woman has a healthy spleen and stomach, big bones prove that she has good physical strength, and a big butt proves that she is good at giving birth.

Physically strong women give birth more smoothly and in a shorter period of time, and their children will be healthy in the future.

Women at this time like this kind of daughter-in-law.

Zhou's mother liked it, but Zhou Wenliang couldn't.

Aunt Wu: "Oh, my aunt can still hurt you. This time, she is a beautiful woman. Do you know the old Qi's family in the alley? It's Qi Zizi's family. His second daughter is about the same age as you. That child works in an agricultural machinery factory. How little money..."

"You mean Qi Erni?" Zhou Wenliang recalled, then quickly waved his hand: "This one is stronger, 1.8 meters tall, taller than me, no..."

Zhou Wenliang hurriedly pushed the car and ran home.

"Hey, hey, Liangzi, Xiaoliang, there are others who are not satisfied with this..."

Seeing Zhou Wenliang enter the room without looking back, Aunt Wu said dissatisfiedly: "Xiao Liang, this doesn't look good at all, and I'm not satisfied with introducing him a few times. What kind of things does he want? Look. I have to talk to Tweet about this matter..."

Aunt Wu turned around and was going to find Zhou's mother, but the third mother who had been watching for a long time quickly stopped her: "His second sister-in-law, you just mentioned the second daughter of Qi Laizi's family, I am quite satisfied with Qi Erni.

Look, just now we asked you to help Xie Cheng introduce one, isn't it ready-made now?

How about letting Xie Cheng meet Erni? "

It’s not good, Aunt Wu complained in her heart: As far as your house’s pick and search sample is concerned, no one will like it, and no one in the whole alley will know that your house is pick.

Yan Jiecheng hasn't been working seriously yet, and Qi Erni is a regular worker, with a salary, how could he possibly look up to him.

"Okay, I see, I'll ask tomorrow..." Aunt Wu walked away perfunctorily.

The third mother curled her lips, seeing that it was useless, and then became worried.

Xie Chengdu has been graduating for so long, and the work has not been assigned.Everyone in the courtyard who is as old as him has a job, but he is still unemployed, and it will be difficult to find a wife in the future.

……

After Zhou Wenliang came back, he first put the best Mido brand "55AB tube radio on the table.

The wooden casing of the radio was disassembled, and after a long time of inspection, the radio was dismantled into eight pieces, and I was stunned to see what the problem was.

It was finally discovered that the radio resistor was broken, and the place where the circuit was soldered was burned.

Zhou Wenliang quickly replaced the resistors, soldered the power supply, and carefully plugged in the power supply. Several lights inside the radio lit up, and two loudspeakers: "My little friend, you know the ears of the little white rabbit..."

The children's program of this era, "Little Trumpet", is the memory of generations.
