Return to the small mountain village in 1986

Chapter 365 The endless charm of color TV

As soon as the TV was turned on, the bright pictures and clear sound, like magic, instantly grabbed the attention of the two women present.

Luo Li didn't care about arranging her clothes anymore. Her eyes were fixed on the TV screen and she couldn't move away anymore.

What was playing on the TV was the plot of Daiyu's entry into Beijing in "A Dream of Red Mansions". The music sounded, and antique scenes unfolded one by one. First, they took a boat in the river, and then rode a carriage into Rongguo Mansion. The gorgeous houses and the strict hierarchy. The mansion and the meeting ceremony with many rules gave the two people who had never watched TV series a great visual impact.

These novel sounds made Gao Shufang feel itchy in the kitchen.

While the big rooster was still stewing in the pot, she quickly ran into the store and hurriedly looked at the TV screen.

At this time, the TV picture suddenly became a little messy, as if the signal was interfered with.

The three fascinated women made sounds of sadness and confusion. Seeing this, Gao Mingcheng didn't panic. He stepped forward and started to flick the antenna on the TV. As he moved, the picture began to change. Change, from blur to clarity.

Nowadays, all TVs require an antenna. After turning on the TV, you have to move the antenna for debugging. If the signal is not good, the TV picture will become cluttered. At this time, you only need to gently move the antenna. Adjust the screen bit by bit.

While he was debugging, he told many beauties this secret.

"Shufang, come and watch together, I'll cook." Gao Mingcheng looked fascinated at Gao Shufang, so he asked her to watch here while he went to cook.

Otherwise, even if she is in the kitchen, her heart is still here on the color TV.

At that time, you won’t know if you added too much salt or too little salt.

"Second brother, you are so kind!" Gao Shufang thanked her very gratefully, but her eyes kept staring at the screen without blinking.

Seeing this, Gao Mingcheng had no choice but to smile helplessly, and went into the backyard kitchen. He first took a look at the fire in the stove, added a piece of firewood, and then opened the lid to see the condition of the food in the pot.

After understanding the situation, he started cutting the side dishes.

Chili is a must!
Ten minutes later, all the dishes were out of the pot, and the steaming big cock exuded the alluring aroma of meat, which made Gao Mingcheng's stomach growl.

"It's time to eat!" Gao Mingcheng shouted, and he was already serving the meal.

However, the big and fragrant cock could not attract the three fascinated women.

What can Gao Mingcheng do?Of course, it is to serve them rice, pick up vegetables, and then deliver them to their hands!
He also took a large bowl to serve rice and vegetables, and sat in front of the color TV to watch.

Not to mention, watching this thing is really addictive. After the smartphone came out in the last life, how many people were addicted to playing with their mobile phones?So how many people are addicted to watching TV now!
The sound of the TV in the clothing store also attracted the attention of surrounding merchants.

They followed the sound and headed towards the clothing store.

For people in the county, black and white TVs are often seen, but color TVs are rare!

"Hey, Boss Gao, you bought a color TV! Where did you buy your color TV? The stores in our county don't seem to sell it, right? What brand is yours? How much does it cost? How did you get the color TV ticket? ?" Boss Zhu, who sells shoes next to him, spoke in an exaggerated manner, wanting to ask one, two, three, four, five.

How could Gao Mingcheng tell others in detail? He just said vaguely: "I bought it in Yangcheng when I went to buy goods. The color TV tickets were given by a friend."

As for the brand and price of the color TV, he said nothing.

Anyone who knows Panasonic’s trademark knows it, and those who don’t know it don’t need to say much.

After all, Boss Zhu is also a businessman. He has traveled to many places and has a wider horizon than ordinary people. However, he did not recognize the brand of this product. He just thought that the texture might be imported.

When he thought of this possibility, he gasped.

Domestic products are expensive and difficult to buy, but boss Gao actually bought imported products?
Tsk tsk, it's amazing!

Although Boss Zhu wanted to know more information, he was a businessman and knew how to observe words and emotions. After seeing that Gao Mingcheng didn't want to say more, he stopped asking and watched TV with relish.

He has a black and white TV set at home, but now that he has watched a color TV set, he feels that watching a black and white TV set is a bit boring.

The idea of ​​​​wanting a color TV grew in his mind.

Not only Boss Zhu, but also the owners of the nearby grocery stores and hardware stores all rushed into the clothing store and looked at the color TV with curiosity.

People have a herd mentality. Although there were few pedestrians and customers at noon, there were inevitably some. When they saw so many people in Xinxin Clothing Store, they walked in curiously, and then saw the brightly colored color TVs.

Ha, color TV!

The news spread from one to ten, and more and more people crowded into the clothing store to watch TV.

The 21-inch color TV is not too small, but it cannot hold so many people crowded to watch it.

Gao Mingcheng was already a little dissatisfied, but he couldn't rush people away. After the TV series ended, he quickly turned off his phone.

"Well, everyone should go back to do business. If they are all crowded here, I can't do business." Gao Mingcheng said loudly.

Not being able to do business is a trivial matter, because I am afraid that someone will take advantage of me.

There are too many people in the store now. If someone takes clothes secretly, he may not be able to find it.

As soon as the color TV was turned off, someone immediately made a dissatisfied voice.

But the color TV is someone else's after all, and they can turn it off if they want.Even if I feel dissatisfied, I have to endure it, unless I have money to buy a color TV.

This year is when color TVs are hot, and news about buying color TVs often appears in newspapers. For example, Kunming once released information about the sale of two hundred color TVs. As a result, buyers gathered in large numbers, in order to buy color TVs in the middle of winter. , people lined up at stores days in advance.It can be seen how crazy people are to own a color TV.

The crowd dispersed reluctantly.

Duo Mei also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She was also addicted to the TV series, but she was the proprietress of a clothing store after all, so she still had some big ideas.

Seeing so many people crowded in the store, she began to worry.Because of worry, I no longer enjoy watching TV.

Gao Mingcheng moved the TV under the shed in the backyard and placed it, and then said to Gao Shufang and the others: "Close the door early tonight, so that you can watch as much as you want! Luo Li, you and Dazhi will eat here together in the evening. After dinner, Go back after you’ve watched enough TV!”

Luo Li was not willing to take advantage, but after hearing Gao Mingcheng's words, she happily agreed.

It doesn’t matter if you eat or not, the key is to watch TV!
The whole afternoon, the three women were looking forward to the arrival of the evening.

Gao Mingcheng had already gone out to do errands.

He first went to the police station. He hadn't seen Gao Guobing for a long time and needed to exchange feelings.

He went there empty-handed. A large electrical appliance like a color TV would have a bad impact if it showed up at the police station rashly.

He first communicated with Gao Guobing, and then sent the color TV to Gao Guobing's home after Gao Guobing got off work.

As soon as he entered the police station, he saw Gao Yue.

It turns out that Gao Yue is also on summer vacation, but he is more miserable. When others are on vacation, it is a real vacation, but what about him?Every time I have a holiday, I go to work at the county police station!
And he still doesn't get paid, so he's just a grievance.

Of course, if he learns more skills now, he will be able to do better after graduation. By then, his starting point will be much higher than others.Future development will also be much better.

The so-called suffering is suffering, and only then can one become a master.

"Ming Cheng! I went to your store to find you before and said that you went out to buy sports cars. Are you back today?" Gao Yue was in a good mood when he saw him.

Playmates who have grown up together since childhood naturally have a much deeper relationship.

"Yes, I came back today. When did you come back from vacation?" Gao Mingcheng asked.

Gao Yue said: "I came back the day before yesterday and started working in the bureau yesterday. Are you here for something? Are you looking for my dad? He's fine now. He's just in the office."

Gao Mingcheng laughed and said, "I have something to do with my uncle, but it's the same with you." He moved closer and said in a low voice, "I got a color TV made in Xiaotian from outside, and I'll give you the purchase price. How about it? Are you happy?"

Of course Gao Yue was happy, but color TVs were expensive, so he simply took Gao Mingcheng with him to find his father, Gao Guobing.

After all, his father has to pay for this!
The two entered Gao Guobing's office.

When Gao Guobing saw Gao Yue for the first time, he scolded him with a straight face: "Aren't you on duty outside? Don't come to me all the time. You have to look like you are at work!"

Just after training his son, he saw Gao Mingcheng.

So Gao Guobing performed a face change on the spot in front of Gao Yue. I'm afraid no Sichuan Opera actor could change his face as fast as him!

Gao Guobing smiled and said, "It's Mingcheng. Why do you come to see your uncle when you have time? Is there something wrong?"

This kind of differential treatment simply made Gao Yue's teeth itch.

Gao Mingcheng also laughed, and gave Gao Yue a mean look, winking on purpose.

Gao Yue hates it!

Seeing Gao Yue's gritted teeth expression, Gao Mingcheng stopped teasing him and told him seriously about bringing back a color TV set from Xiangjiang.

Gao Guobing and Gao Yue who were present were both trustworthy people, and it was possible to talk to them about this kind of thing.

When he learned that he was lucky enough to get a batch of goods from Xiangjiang, Gao Yue was almost envious of him.

"Uncle, I kept three units in total, one for myself, one for Brother Xiao, and this last one is for you. It's expensive, so I won't give it to you. How about just paying the purchase price? Gao Mingcheng said with a smile.

Even Gao Guobing, a seasoned person, felt hot in his heart when he heard about Panasonic color TV.

He had a TV at home and had bought it a few years ago, but it was just a black and white TV.

Sometimes when watching TV, Zhao Dongmei would occasionally sigh and say that it would be great if there was a color TV to watch.

Gao Guobing kept this in mind, but he just couldn't get a TV ticket to buy it.

Although the deputy bureau of a small county town can speak volumes in this three-thirds of an acre of land, it is difficult to accomplish some big things.

Gao Guobing was so excited that he couldn't sit still. He stood up directly and said with suppressed excitement in his voice: "Don't talk about the purchase price, it's the market price! Mingcheng, this smuggling is very risky, you can't make no profit at all."

"No, uncle, I give Brother Xiao the purchase price. I can only give it to you less, but not more! What kind of relationship do we have, right?" Gao Mingcheng said quickly with a smile.

"Okay, when I get off work, I'll just move the color TV to your house, so I won't have to take it here for eye drilling."

"Okay!" Gao Guobing and Gao Yue's father and son were already looking forward to it.
