Clothes, skin care products, etc., I went back and forth to the store and shopped all over the street.

After the teenagers and girls went out, the parents of both parties returned to the dinner table.

Father Wang and Su Zhiliang continued to drink, eat and chat.

"If you ask me, the kids are still catching up with the good times.

At my dad's time, the college entrance examination system had just been restored. "

Su Zhiliang took a sip of wine and said.

"Year 1977?"

The college entrance examination system was restored, and Father Wang was also deeply impressed by it.

"That's right, the imperial examination system, which was suspended for ten years, has been restored.

To tell the truth from my father-in-law, my dad took a shortcut to get into college.

He had been an educated youth in the countryside for several years, and when he heard that the college entrance examination had resumed, he hurried to a remote area—Anhui Province to take the exam. "

"Isn't this a college entrance examination immigration?"

Father Wang said in surprise.

At that time, each region had a certain number of college students.

Some impoverished areas did not receive news of the resumption of the college entrance examination in the first place.

After all, there are only radios and telegraphs, which are far from modern ultra-high-speed information transmission.

A certain number of people must be selected.

But Su Zhiliang's father got involved and usurped his own luck.

"Yeah, the control was not strict at that time, my dad took advantage of the loophole and passed.

Now that I can live like this, it is inseparable from my father's relationship. "

Father Wang fell silent immediately after hearing this.

"Actually, I did not hide from my in-laws that my wife and I were wandering in Shanghai in the early years."

"In Shanghai? How many years ago?"

"30 years ago.

At that time, my wife and I sold vegetables there and made a small fortune. "

In the era of reform and opening up, it is rare to lose money in business, which is not as difficult as doing business now.

"Then you didn't buy a house at the beginning? No way, the house price didn't rise as fast as it is now.

Why didn't you buy a house? "

In fact, the years of room drive-up.

Not only was the real estate owner speculating on the price, but the country also contributed to the flames.

"Greedy is not enough to swallow elephants.

When we had the start-up capital, we wanted to go to aquatic products and sell crayfish to those barbecue restaurants, which would be more profitable.

Unexpectedly, he stumbled. "

"What's going on, the goods you bought can't be sold, causing the goods to be squeezed?"

"No, we are too young. There are ten companies in the local market that do this."

"Is the competition that fierce?"

"It's not just fierce, those ten families are actually relatives."

Father Wang smiled wryly.

"what?"

"They lowered the price with us, sold it regardless of cost, and charged less than one yuan per catty.

As long as we sell for one day, they will lose one day, fighting us to the death.

Where there is their rich background, I naturally put away the stall and slipped away.

When I leave, these shops will continue to sell at the original price.

Anyway, they have monopolized and raised prices, and customers can only buy by pinching their noses.

Out of ten, five deliberately sell at high prices, and one of them sells the cheapest, and customers go there to buy.

As everyone knows, they are all run by a family. "

After listening to the prince's long speech, Su Zhiliang held his wine glass and sighed endlessly.

"Is that when I smoked cigarettes again? It's not easy."

Su Zhiliang stood up and poured the prince a glass of wine.

"Come and drink, you and I are done in one breath."

Seeing the father of the king drank it all in one gulp, Su Zhiliang's thoughts became active.

"I also have no ambitions. When I was in college, all the classmates around me wanted to squeeze their heads abroad.

You don't know, they dream of visas to go to the United States.

Want to pick up foreign girls and make a lot of money!

Ha ha. "

refuse or agree

People today may not understand how eager a college student was to go abroad in that era.

For them, there is a vast world out there, studded with golden opportunities.

The red lights of the city are drunk like a fox's tail twirling people's noses.

At that time, the overall ratio of gd between the United States and China was about 20:1.

It is a bit more exaggerated than the advantage that the mainland has over Taiwan today.

In the beginning, foreign countries were not interested in the Chinese market because they were too poor.

It’s not the Qing Dynasty. At that time, tea was still produced, and a lot of silver flowed out.

However, it has a vast land and resources and a large population.

They are still willing to accept cheap labor.

It should be clear that the war policy back then encouraged multiple births, and it was normal for a mother to have seven or eight children.

It was not until the reform and introduction of family planning that anyone who dared to have more children would be fined heavily, and the population could be limited.

Some people in the country have a deep-rooted patriarchal thought. As long as a son is not born, no matter how many daughters she has, she will continue to have children.

He ran around with his wife all day long, avoiding arrests and fines from the department.

Back to topic.

At that time, it was a very honorable thing for college students to go abroad. Almost everyone believed that working hard outside could change the economic structure and make a lot of money.

This is the vibe.

Everyone says that, you have to believe it, and you are not allowed to refute it if you don’t believe it.

For example, now, the teachers will say that you can play casually after entering the university.

Work harder now, and relax later.

In fact, this is not the case at all. You still have to work hard when you get to university, otherwise you won't be able to find a job.

The atmosphere is such a scary thing, I was led by the nose unconsciously.

Going abroad means learning a foreign language, English as an international language.

At that time, Li Yang Crazy English and New Oriental Teaching came into being.

Li Yang relied on tapes, crazy recitation skills, and "Chicken Soup for the Soul" to completely stir up the matter of going abroad.

As for why he didn't enter later, it wasn't just because of Li Yang's domestic violence.

The main reason is that New Oriental is an educational institution whose learning methods are completely in line with exam-oriented education.

For college students, if they can successfully pass the exam, they need a visa to go abroad.

It doesn't matter if you can speak fluent English or not.

The movie "Chinese Partner", which has been popular for a while, is also an adaptation of the experience of the master of New Oriental: Yu Minhong.

Su Zhiliang has already drank five bottles of beer in a row, but he still has no intention of stopping.

"Drink less, too much will hurt your stomach."

Father Wang persuaded.

"fine!"

He waved his hand and pointed to the tip of his nose.

"I'm so stupid, I went abroad to serve foreigners, wash the table, and wipe the floor.

I shouldn't have gone out at all, plunged headlong into the tide of the times, and still have a stubborn temper like a bull.

I always lied to her that I was doing well, bragging about how much money I made.

Wait, wait, wait.
