Siheyuan: Fusion of 129600 Selves

Chapter 73 Blood-sucking Yi Zhonghai

Portable recorders and tapes quickly became popular in Hong Kong and overseas.

This palm-sized tape recorder can not only record, but also be used as a radio and play tapes.

One song after another was recorded onto tapes, some of which were sold in Hong Kong and some were sold overseas.

The songs that Zhang Jianghe downloaded in his previous life included Chinese songs and countless foreign songs.

There are many foreigners in Hong Kong. Longxing Entertainment Company has signed some foreigners with outstanding singing talents. It uses classic foreign songs to create foreign singers and foreign bands.

The singer’s share is only 20% of the net profit, the company gets 50%, and the lyricist and composer gets 30%.

For songs written and composed by the singer himself, the net profit goes to the singer half and the company half.

The cost of a blank tape is about thirty cents, and the wholesale price is two dollars.

A tape with a recorded song costs fifty cents and the wholesale price is ten dollars.

The tape recorder costs less than twenty dollars and the wholesale price is two hundred dollars.

The lithium iron phosphate battery used in the recorder costs less than fifty cents and has a wholesale price of twenty yuan.

Lithium iron phosphate batteries can be recharged, have a large storage capacity, and are priced a bit higher, but this is acceptable.

The charger costs about one yuan, and the wholesale price is thirty yuan.

Overseas distributors purchase goods from Longxing Group and resell them abroad at a price that is at least three times the wholesale price.

Many overseas record companies purchase blank tapes from Longxing Group.

This easy-to-carry recorder is highly sought after by countless fans.

Holding a tape recorder in one hand and playing popular songs, he attracted attention wherever he went.

Because the recorder is only the size of a palm, many people call it a "treasure in the palm".

A small number of tape recorders appeared in the supply and marketing cooperatives in major cities in Longguo.

The expensive tape recorders are considered a luxury item in Longguo.

If you buy a tape recorder, even if it can be used as a radio, you still need to buy batteries and a charger.

Sending batteries and chargers? That's impossible!

If you want your recorder to have the recording function, you have to buy a tape, right?

Including various accessories, the wholesale price of a single recorder is almost three hundred dragon coins.

The purchasing power of the Hong Kong dollar is not very stable, so all transactions of the Longxing Group are converted into Dragon Coins.

After the second edition of Dragon Coins came out, 2.46 Dragon Coins could be exchanged for 1 Star Coin.

The Longxing tape recorder factory was established and the Longguo radio factory closed down.

The tape recorder is more advanced than the radio. It has all the functions that the radio has.

After passing layers of review, the employees of the radio factory were transferred to the Longxing tape recorder factory.

Thanks to its compact size, Longxing recorder has no rivals at home or abroad.

By June, North Sudan decided to stop providing aid.

The grain from the Qinzhou Longxing storage base was transported to various parts of Longguo.

Bandits like Lu Wu had long been cleared out, and Longguo was relatively stable.

Just because the drought-affected area is larger than last year, food rations have not yet been restored.

After marriage, He Yuzhu no longer provided support to the Jia family.

Jia Zhang, who was lazy and didn't want to starve to death, repeatedly asked Yi Zhonghai for money and food.

Liu Haizhong was called the Second Uncle by many people in the institute, but he felt that his technical level was two levels higher than Yi Zhonghai, and he was also a cadre in the factory, so he didn't need to give face to Yi Zhonghai in the institute.

Liu Haizhong did not agree to donate money and grain to the Jia family, and Yan Bugui was even less likely to agree.

If Liu Haizhong and Yi Zhonghai both agreed, Yan Bugui, who did not want to offend anyone, would most likely follow the crowd.

Even though Yi Zhonghai didn't get Liu Haizhong's consent, Yan Bugui still practiced Tai Chi with full justification.

The courtyard was unwilling to donate money or grain to the Jia family, so Yi Zhonghai had to support the Jia family on his own.

He believed that Jia Dongxu was his biological son and it was his duty to support the Jia family.

Tan Guixiang, who depended on Jia Dongxu for her old age, resented Yi Zhonghai in her heart but did not dare to show it. She just talked to herself occasionally to induce Banggeng to eat well by his own ability.

He Yuzhu's wife Chen Fang has no job and stays in the yard all day, so she has no chance to do anything.

Before Chen Fang came to Beicheng, He Daqing told Chen Fang the general situation of the courtyard.

When Chen Fang was in the yard, the He family did not lock the door. When Chen Fang was not in the yard, the He family locked the door.

Xu Damao's wife, Cui Xue, always locks the door when she goes out.

Banggeng, who is seven years old this year, has not yet learned how to sneak into houses and pick locks.

The He family and the Xu family had no chance, and the other neighbors in the yard didn't give Banggeng any chance either.

The last time he heard Tan Guixiang talking to herself, Banggeng started looking for money at home.

By chance, Banggeng discovered where Jia Zhang kept her money.

The first time I took two dimes and waited for a few days, but was not discovered.

Banggeng became more and more courageous and would take money from home every now and then.

Zhang Jianghe took a few photos of Banggeng when he met him shopping.

"Bang Geng is alone and has money to buy food. There is something wrong."

Ignoring Bang Geng, Zhang Jianghe rode his titanium bicycle back to the poultry farm.

In order to support his beloved son Jia Dongxu, Yi Zhonghai often went to the pigeon market and the black market to buy food.

"This is not a solution. Food prices have risen a lot. We must upgrade Dongxu."

Jia Dongxu has been learning locksmithing from him for several years. It's not that he is unwilling to teach, but that Jia Dongxu is lazy.

At first, he was not sure whether Jia Dongxu was his biological son, so Yi Zhonghai kept some tricks up his sleeve when teaching Jia Dongxu locksmith skills.

Yi Zhonghai, who has a strong desire for control, plans to completely tame Jia Dongxu first and then teach him locksmithing techniques.

Later, realizing that Jia Dongxu was his biological son, Yi Zhonghai taught Jia Dongxu locksmith skills and never kept them to himself again.

Before Jia Haoyun died, he had been married to Zhang Cuihua for many years, but they had only one son, Jia Dongxu. The more Yi Zhonghai thought about it, the more he felt that Jia Dongxu was his biological son. After all, when he was practicing with Zhang Cuihua, his fertility was intact.

Yi Zhonghai kept a close eye on Jia Dongxu at the factory and gave him unreserved guidance, so Jia Dongxu had no choice but to study hard.

Yi Zhonghai is always watching him when he goes to the toilet, so he has no chance to be lazy. Jia Dongxu can and can only learn.

Jia Dongxu has a lot of responsibilities at home, as he has to support his mother, wife, son and daughter.

In the past, he was able to get Shazhu's lunch box and receive help from his master, so his life was very comfortable.

Now that Shazhu’s lunch box is gone, the family can barely fill their stomachs, and Jia Dongxu feels more stressed.

With years of experience and Yi Zhonghai's instruction, Jia Dongxu passed the factory's work grade assessment and became a second-level fitter.

The price of corn flour at the grain station is 0.09 yuan per catty, while the price of corn flour at the pigeon market and the black market has risen to 0.28 yuan per catty.

Before the rationing of the urban population was reduced, corn flour sold at 0.09 yuan per catty at the grain station, and sold at about 0.18 yuan per catty at the pigeon market and the black market. The price without a ticket was about double that with a ticket.

Zhang Jianghe finds the prices of many things these days amazing.

The grain station sells sweet potatoes for 0.03 yuan per pound. In the s, sweet potatoes also cost a few cents per pound.

The promotion of fitter from level one to level two increased the salary by six yuan, and the worker could buy more than twenty kilograms of corn flour at the pigeon market or the black market.

Cornmeal is corn flour. Some cornmeal contains corn cobs. The cornmeal is not fine enough, and it sticks to the throat and is difficult to swallow.

Corn flour in the 200st century not only has no corn cobs, but is also about mesh in thickness.

Mesh is a unit of size (coarseness), which is equivalent to the diameter of an object. The coarseness of sandpaper is expressed in mesh.

1 micron is equal to mesh, and 200 mesh is equal to 62.5 microns.

The corn flour of this era is about 30-40 mesh, and the diameter is at least more than microns.

When you are hungry, you can eat anything. Cornmeal is not easy to swallow, but it can fill your stomach.

Worried that Jia Dongxu would not provide for him in his old age, Yi Zhonghai was reluctant to spend money.

Even though Yi Zhonghai was stingy, he couldn't stop Jia Zhang from continuing to suck his blood.

Jia Zhang, who is overweight, would feel uncomfortable if she didn't eat meat for a few days.

The increase in drought-affected areas has led to a decrease in the number of pig farms. Pork on the black market and pigeon market has always been in short supply and the price has remained high.

The money in Jia Zhang's hands was decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
