Chapter 60 Working Girl in Sleeper Car

The free market, where Xushan originally set up stalls, now still has stalls.

However, there are no prize-winning sales items at this stall. Xu Shan only arranged for Xiao Fei to sell socks there.

Those who wanted to draw prizes came to inquire, and Xiao Fei directed them to the newly opened store in Xushan: "The prize drawing activities will be held in the store from now on. This stall is small, and when people gather together, pickpockets suddenly come in. You guys Don’t worry, the prizes have been upgraded again, not only color TVs, black and white TVs, but also women’s bicycles, radios… Anyway, you can just go to the store and buy them.”

In addition to attracting traffic from small stalls, Xushan also placed advertisements in various towns and villages.

This is also thanks to Xiang Jinsong, who has a very wide network of contacts in the post office. He just gave each of his colleagues in the post office who was responsible for delivering to each township a pack of cigarettes, and the advertising matter was settled. In the next three days, every township and village After broadcasting the news on the loudspeakers in the evening, the village party secretary will loudly announce that everyone in the village will go to the stores in the city to buy clothes and win prizes.

Don’t underestimate the consumption power of Longshui Village. Longshui County has a tradition of doing business since ancient times. With the reform, the economy has gradually been revitalized. Every village has set up factories, such as Xujia Village, which has two There are two factories, one is a powder drying factory, which specializes in making rice noodles, and the other is a quarry, which transports the mined stones for infrastructure construction.Many families in the village have bought walking tractors, which they use for plowing during busy farming periods and for transportation. Although their living standards are not as good as those of factory workers, they are getting better year by year.

Moreover, in this era, the advertisements on the village radio were issued in the form of notices, which had a hint of command. The people felt that this was an endorsement, so they were willing to go to the city to see what was new. .

Against this background, Xu Shan's small store has been open for three days, and business is booming day by day.

Xu Shan calculated that the nearly two thousand sets of clothing he bought would be sold out in two days.

After excluding the money for buying prizes (this time Xu Shan didn’t dare to play with fake things, they were really real prizes), labor costs, the cost of buying the store, and the 1 yuan loan, Xu Shan paid back the net Earn more than 2 yuan, and if you sell all the remaining goods, you can make another [-] yuan.

Facing a good market situation, Xu Shan decided to make another trip to Yangcheng.Because the purchase price was too different from the sales price, Xu Shan did not dare to take others there, so he decided to go south alone.

I don't want Xiang Jinsong to go with him no matter what.

Xu Shan naturally trusts Xiang Jinsong's character, and they are now in-depth partners. They have experienced life and death together, and there are no secrets to hide.

So after thinking about it for a while, Xu Shan decided to take Xiang Jinsong with him. The two of them bought a ticket to Yangcheng, or two sleeper tickets, took 3 yuan in payment, and set off for Yangcheng.This was not Xiang Jinsong's first time taking a train. In fact, he always took the train when he went to post and telecommunications school.

But this was his first long-distance trip, so he was a little too excited. He dragged Xu Shan to chat, and what they talked about the most was the progress of the antenna factory.The ready-made factory building next to the small blast furnace was cleaned up very quickly without Dong Chunsheng's obstruction. Moreover, the factory building did not need any decoration. The iron slag and other waste materials inside were transported out to fill the road, and then the factory building was cleaned up very quickly. Get some consoles and put them to use.

The steel pipes used for making antennas are provided by Longshui Steel Factory. They make the steel pipes into ready-made shapes according to the design drawings, and then assemble them by workers.

The real trouble is the electronic components. Although the circuit structure of the antenna is relatively simple, these electronic components still need to be purchased from the manufacturer. Although it is said that a market economy is needed these days, it will not be until the end of the 80s that the market economy can be truly launched. Therefore, this state-owned electronic component factory basically has a production plan. This production plan has been formulated at the beginning of the year, and it is impossible to process it for you.

So Xiang Jinsong decided to talk to some township enterprises, but there has been no progress so far, and he is almost at a loss.However, he was full of confidence and believed that it would be done soon.

Looking at the enthusiastic Xiang Jinsong, Xu Shan's thoughts were a little wandering.

It is said that Xiang Jinsong got the patent for the Lingling Love Antenna when he met an old professor on a train during a business trip, and finally made the Lingling Love Antenna. Now he has given the design to him in advance and will produce it. The time for antennas has advanced several years, but I don’t know whether this decision was right or wrong. If it had been a few years later, I guess both electronic components and aluminum tubes for receiving signals could have been easily obtained.

The car drove for a while and entered Xiyang Station. At this time, a timid working girl came into the bunk where they were. The girl was tall and her work clothes could not hide her slim figure. She put her big bag on He stuffed himself under the bunk, took a magazine, and sat across from Xu Shan and Xiang Jinsong to read.

While the working girl was reading a book, she was secretly listening to the conversation between Xiang Jinsong and Xu Shan, and from time to time she would peek at Xu Shan.

While Xu Shan listened to Xiang Jinsong's detailed sharing as if it were a work report, he paid attention to this girl. It was too inconsistent.Speaking of ordinary working girls, who would spend so much money to sit on a sleeper berth?

These days, the price of train tickets is quite expensive compared to people's wages.For example, on the high-speed trains of later generations, if you take the train from Longshui to Yangcheng, it will cost you less than a week's salary at most. However, the current green train is still slow and stops at every stop. A hard-seat ticket will cost you a month. The salary may not be enough.

Not to mention that a sleeper ticket is [-] times more expensive than a hard seat ticket.

Do you think an ordinary working girl would be willing to spend this kind of money to fly "first class" in this era?

Not to mention working girls, many cadres these days are reluctant to stay in sleeper berths when traveling on business, and they still sleep in hard-seat carriages.

So it's abnormal.

And Xu Shan seemed to notice something familiar in this working girl, especially when the working girl glanced at him and Xiang Jinsong, he seemed to see Wu Di.Does this working girl actually want to play a fairy dance with herself?If so, that's really a coincidence.

After Xiang Jinsong shared the process of building the factory, he felt thirsty, so he took the enamel jar to boil the water and drank from it. At this time, Xu Shan took the opportunity to chat with the working girl: "Girl, where are you going?"

The working girl covered her face with a magazine, but raised the corners of her mouth slightly, pretending to be nonchalant and replied: "I'm going back to Bao'an County to work. What about you, where are you going?"
