The Lord of the World Begins from the Siheyuan

Chapter 331 Shouldn't be such a coincidence
The department store is full of customers.

When people go to the store, they plan to have items to buy, and no matter how many people there are, they have to wait in line.

Li Ming and Lou Xiao'e were obviously different from others.

The two of them walked around the road when they saw a lot of people.

"Let's go eat some dim sum first, and then go shopping after eating. There should be a lot fewer people at that time." Lou Xiao'e has shopping experience.

"I listen to your arrangement. I'll go wherever you point today." He didn't know how to get tired, and he came out to shop only to make Lou Xiao'e happy.

The voices were noisy, and it was inconvenient for the two of them to whisper to each other while wearing masks.

After walking out of the store, the two began to discuss carefully.

"In the evening, the second uncle in my yard, Liu Haizhong, invited me to dinner. Before that, I was free."

"Why did he invite you to dinner? Did he want to ask you to do something?"

"There are a lot of people talking on the road. Let's talk about this matter slowly after we get home."

Lou Xiaoe just cared about it, and didn't care too much, "Okay. There are too many people here. Let's go to Xiangtaiyi to see the mung bean cake first. I hope there are not so many people over there."

"Then go to Xiangtaiyi."

Li Ming is not familiar with these time-honored brands.Even the signboards of some stores have actually been changed, and old customers like Lou Xiao'e are still called by their original names, and those who are not familiar with them don't understand.

He asked again: "Is it far away, do you want me to pick up the bicycle first?"

Just like the car parking lots in the future, there are bicycle storage places in shops, hospitals, cinemas, theaters, post offices, and even some bustling streets in the capital.

The fee for parking a car is three cents. There is no time on the day, and you have to pay extra for overnight storage.

The fees in Beijing are a bit more expensive.

Many cities charge 2 cents for storing bicycles in prosperous areas such as shops and movie theaters, 1 cent for non-main areas, and 5 cents for overnight storage.

If you store your bicycle, you will be given a stored license plate as a voucher.

If you lose your license plate, it will be troublesome.

When picking up the car, you must keep the license plate. If there is no plate, even if the owner has the car key, you will not be allowed to take the bike.

Since there was no ID card at this time, the person who lost the brand had to find a place such as the unit, the street, or the public security station where the certificate could be issued, and the car could only be taken away after the certificate was issued.

The regulations are a bit rigid, but if someone steals the keys and takes the car away from the car storage, and the owner of the car picks up the car with the license plate, who is responsible for the loss of the car?

It is the best solution for the management to recognize the card but not the person or the key.

Lou Xiao'e, who was wearing gloves, pointed forward and said, "Go straight to the front intersection and turn left, and then walk for a while. The total distance is estimated to be two miles. Do you think it is better to walk or ride there?"

"I'm fine. As long as you're willing, it's fine for me to walk over with you in my arms."

The mask couldn't hide the smile on Lou Xiaoe's face: "I know you are a strong man. Then let's go over there. Just take a walk with me."

Two miles may sound like a long distance, but it is actually equivalent to going around an ordinary community.

The two walked around for a few minutes, and when they turned around the intersection without shelter, they both noticed a long queue in the distance.

Li Ming found a reason and explained: "The Chinese New Year is coming, maybe everyone will take advantage of this weekend to go out and buy supplies for the Chinese New Year."

Lou Xiaoe regretted: "There are too many people, let's go home first."

"It's okay, I'll line up with you."

"I know you'd rather not eat than wait in a long line."

"With you, it doesn't matter if you line up slowly." Li Mingyan said insincerely.

"really?"

"When did I lie to you? I promised you, but I tried my best to do everything."

"I believe it. However, let's go home. Let those who have to go to work buy it today, and I will come to buy it tomorrow."

"Hearing what you said, I also feel that I want to give way to them."

The two turned around and walked back, took the car and went straight home.

A small courtyard in the west of the city, a warm main house.

The two took off their warm clothes, gloves, hats, scarves, and coats.

The briefcase also became Li Ming's treasure chest, and he took out a certificate from it, "I forgot to give it to you this morning. This is the certificate issued by the factory yesterday, please put it in your small box."

"Another one, you are really good." Lou Xiaoe took the certificate and looked at it carefully.

"This is the earliest one I can get. After the new year, I think I can get an advanced individual of the city's 'Patriotic Sanitation Movement'. Chengdong District has recommended me to the city."

"I'll keep it safe for you. You're going to drink tonight, or let's celebrate."

Lou Xiaoe took the certificate and went to the bedroom, "Forbe brought back two carts of wine from my dad, and a pile of foreign cans and other shelf-stable food."

"I know, it's in the East Wing. I took a look at it two days ago. You can drink it slowly at home in the future." Red wine should be stored at a constant temperature of more than 10 degrees, which is a troublesome kind of wine.

Lou Xiao'e lowered her head to pack her small suitcase, and replied, "En!"

"I'm free in the afternoon. How about we go practice marksmanship? I'll teach you how to jerk off."

Lou Xiao'e had already been misled by him, so she raised her head and looked at his eyes first, wanting to confirm what he meant before replying.

Li Ming was a little embarrassed by her look, "Small, why are you looking at me like that? It's the pistol that the Public Security Bureau rewarded me."

"It's not that you yourself are always talking indecently. I'm afraid I'll fall into your trap again."

"Okay, it's all my fault."

Lou Xiaoe asked with great interest: "Where shall we go to practice, hunting in the mountains?"

"The May Fourth pistol has a long range, strong penetrating power, and great power. We must pay attention to using it safely, and don't let stray bullets hurt other people." Li Ming gave Lou Xiao'e some safety reminders.

"We went to Xiangyanghua to find Company Commander Gao, and borrowed their militia training ground to practice. If they hadn't built a new greenhouse this year, they might be conducting militia training at this time."

After tidying up, Lou Xiaoe also sat down at the table to drink hot water, "Then shall we go down after lunch at home?"

"I'll go after lunch. Although it's warmer today with seven or eight degrees in the daytime, I'm too lazy to go to the countryside to light a fire and cook."

"Tomorrow will be a big drop in temperature. I heard from the weather forecast that the highest temperature is minus 4 degrees during the day and minus 12 degrees at night. Will you let them set up a stall to sell vegetables tomorrow?"

"It should be fine, Gao Jiande and the others are young guys."

"By the way, there aren't as many people in Xiangtaiyi's usual afternoon, right? I'm afraid that when the time comes, people who buy pastries will turn around and go to the entrance of the foreign trade department to buy our vegetables, and my plan will be ruined."

Coincidentally, the two of them walked to the intersection of Wangfujing Street and East Chang'an Street just now, and the Ministry of Foreign Trade was a little across the diagonal.

Li Ming hadn't visited the site before, it was just an idea that came up on a whim, and it's normal for some accidents to happen during implementation.

Lou Xiaoe said uncertainly: "There are not so many people in normal times. It shouldn't be such a coincidence!"
