Chen Dong said: "Okay, I will call tomorrow and ask them to find someone immediately."
Huang Shaowen said quickly: "Forget it, those who are celebrating the New Year are not in a hurry for these few days. Let's talk about it after the New Year."
Having said that, I don¡¯t know what Chen Dong ordered Huang Shaowen to do.
"By the way, you didn't go home last year. Why do your parents insist on you going back this year?"
Chen Dong smiled and said: "It's not about urging me to get married. Before I came back, I lied to me that my mother was sick and was about to die. But when I came back, I went on a blind date."
Speaking of which, Chen Dong is indeed quite old. Huang Shaowen is already twenty-two years old after the Chinese New Year. Chen Dong is still a few years older than Huang Shaowen. If he were in a rural area, Huang Shaowen would have to get married at the age of eighteen.
Even if Chen Dong is from the city, there are basically very few people in their twenties who are still unmarried. So it's no wonder that Chen Dong's parents are anxious for him to get a wife.
But Chen Dong didn¡¯t know what was going on. When I first met Huang Shaowen, Chen Dong was still thinking about getting a wife, but his family was poor and he couldn't afford a wife. But in recent years, Chen Dong has made a lot of money.
But as he made more money and the market grew bigger, Chen Dong was not in a hurry.
Maybe it¡¯s because he was with Huang Shaowen and listened to Huang Shaowen talk a lot. Chen Dong no longer felt that it was no big deal that he was in his twenties and not married.
Especially after going to Guangdong and Hong Kong with Huang Shaowen last time and meeting Huang Shaowen¡¯s girlfriend, Chen Dong¡¯s vision is getting higher and higher now.
Huang Shaowen can only express sympathy for the things Chen Dong encountered. After all, it was his own family's matter, and Huang Shaowen couldn't give him any good advice.
"You're not young, and I understand your parents. If you think it's inappropriate, forget it, but act quickly when you meet someone you like." Huang Shaowen's advice on this matter can only be this.
Every time he comes back, Huang Shaowen always meets a lot of people. Among them, Zhang Jianwen was the first to know that he was back.
A few years ago, this ruffian-like figure with the nickname "Zhang Papi" has become very different now.
When we met Huang Shaowen before, we could basically see a bit of arrogance in Zhang Jianwen, but now Zhang Jianwen is already in a suit and tie, but he is still wearing a coat.
It¡¯s just a pity that although Zhang Jianwen¡¯s outfit is good, he did come on a motorcycle. This time the momentum dropped a lot.
Huang Shaowen joked: "You look good in this outfit, but it's a bit too tacky to wear with a motorcycle. It's more suitable with a car. This way you don't have to wear a military coat."
Zhang Jianwen did not come alone. He was followed by two younger men, each riding a motorcycle.
Zhang Jianwen didn¡¯t really care about Huang Shaowen¡¯s ridicule. He smiled and said, "Don't tell me, I'm asking where to buy a car right now?"
" Zhang Jianwen probably can't buy a car now, because cars are still included in the plan, and private individuals basically can't buy cars.
Even the tractor Liu Dafu bought for selling fish was bought in the name of the village collective.
Huang Shaowen smiled and said: "Then don't think about it, I'm afraid you won't be able to buy it even if you break your leg."
As a person who has experienced the entire era of reform and opening up, Huang Shaowen is relatively clear about the beginning and end of the development of cars.
In 1982, Chen Zutao, the then general manager of China Automotive Industry Corporation (his father was Chen Changhao, the former political commissar of the Fourth Red Army), approached a director of the State Planning Commission and proposed to find a way to develop small cars. The director was even more angry and said that small cars Cars are products of the bourgeoisie.
At that time, Chen Zutao failed to convince the director, so he directly handed the report he wrote to Comrade Xiaoping through some channels.
Then Comrade Xiaoping gave instructions: "Cars can be joint ventures."
After that, the country gradually relaxed restrictions on individual car purchases.
It was not until 1984 that the State Council promulgated the "Several Provisions on the Purchase of Motor Vehicles, Vessels and Tractors by Individual Farmers or Joint Households to Operate the Transportation Industry", which clarified the legality of private purchase of cars for the first time in policy terms.
If Huang Shaowen remembers correctly, it seems that in 1985, Shanghai held the first international auto show in China.
Huang Shaowen doesn't remember exactly when the "Regulations" came out, but it must be right in 1984.
So if Zhang Jianwen wants to buy a car, he will basically have the opportunity this year.
Zhang Jianwen sighed: "Don't tell me, I did go to Shanghai to ask. As soon as they heard that I wanted to buy it, they asked me for an approval slip. As soon as I heard that, I knew that the car had to be bought in the name of the collective, and then I don't have thatIt¡¯s impossible. "
Huang Shaowen pulled the bench and motioned for Zhang Jianwen to sit down. Huang Shaowu went to the kitchen and poured a glass of water for Zhang Jianwen.
Zhang Jianwen also knows Huang Shaowen's family, but except for Huang Shaowen, he is basically not familiar with anyone else.
After taking the tea handed over by Huang Shaowu, he smiled and said: "This is Shaowu. I heard you went to college before and you didn't come to congratulate me. It was all because I was busy. Come on, this is a belated gift. It happens to be the Chinese New Year soon. Well, the red envelope as a gift is just one piece, so don¡¯t be stingy.¡±
As he said that, he took out a thick stack of money from the leather bag he held under his body. Huang Shaowu had never seen this battle before. Although the money was indeed a lot, he was a little tempted. Four years ago, Huang Shaowu might have accepted it after a few pushbacks. .
¡°But now my family is not poor. I can¡¯t accept such money no matter what. And it was given by Zhang Jianwen.
Huang Shaowu certainly knows about the grudge between his eldest brother and Zhang Jianwen. Although his eldest brother seems to have reconciled with Zhang Jianwen now, this is what Huang Shaowu cannot understand.
How can eldest brother be friends with a gangster like Zhang Jianwen?
Huang Shaowu resisted for a while, and Huang Shaowen said: "Okay, even if I gave you a gift, I didn't say I would give you so much. Come on, twenty is enough. Keep your second son."
Huang Shaowen made the decision, and Zhang Jianwen couldn't force it. In fact, even this twenty yuan is considered a lot as a gift. When Huang Shaowen was admitted to college, he only received a total of more than 30 yuan in congratulatory gifts.
Even though everyone will have money when Huang Shaowu is admitted to college, the gifts will not last ten or twenty years, so the amount of gifts still cannot be changed.
¡° That is to say, because Huang Shaowen was in front, more people came to Huang Shaowu¡¯s college entrance banquet, but in the end the gift money was only over fifty yuan.
Now more than twenty yuan is nothing to Zhang Jianwen, especially since Huang Shaowen's family is so rich. Of course, if Zhang Jianwen gives a gift, it is impossible to give it a few or dozens of yuan. Even if it costs more than a thousand yuan, it will hurt me, but giving it to one A few hundred is no problem.
It¡¯s a bit of a slap in the face to have the gift money returned by someone else. But after all, it was Huang Shaowen who returned it, so Zhang Jianwen certainly couldn't say anything.
It¡¯s just a little embarrassing in terms of face. Huang Shaowen directly stuffed the remaining money into his bag and said: "I know you are a rich man now. If you have money, you should give more than 20 yuan as a gift. You can keep the rest and spend it yourself."
Huang Shaowen¡¯s words helped Zhang Jianwen get rid of the embarrassment in time. Zhang Jianwen said with a smile: "Then I will keep it. When the third, fourth and fifth children are admitted to college, I will definitely give them a big red envelope." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
