Chapter 13 Wei Shengli Goes to Work
After the purchase, there was a master craftsman welding the frame for the car at the entrance of the department store.
Fang wanted to leave the car directly with the master.
I didn’t expect that I would have to queue up to weld a frame.
Fang Xiang was too lazy to wait and just greeted his master.
Continue shopping in the department store.
See if there's anything else you can buy.
have to say.
At this time, department stores are really not often called department stores.
Unlike the old society, where everything was available.
It means that there are tens of thousands of items for sale, and we have all kinds of goods.
Fang looked around for a long time and spent more than ten yuan.
I bought myself two new sets of clothes, new shoes and two sets of bedding.
Use the cloth coupons, cotton coupons and shoe coupons in your hands thoroughly.
They are said to be new clothes, but in fact they are just ordinary coarse cloth clothes.
Blue on top and black on bottom.
There is no style to speak of.
It’s just about being able to wear it.
The same goes for shoes, with a rubber sole sewn onto the cloth surface.
Wearable and abrasion-resistant.
After all, these days, people don’t really care about what they wear.
Fang Xiang is a student, so there is nothing wrong with being low-key.
The bedding is nice.
It is tightly stuffed with cotton and looks warm at first glance.
A set costs five dollars.
Two sets for ten bucks.
On the contrary, the two sets of clothes and shoes only cost four dollars in total.
Wait until school starts.
These are just the right things to take to school.
There is no need to buy other things, the school will give them to you directly.
Furniture and other things are also available here.
It's made of genuine solid wood.
Judging from the craftsmanship, it is quite good.
The price is reasonable too.
But Fang thought about it and decided to give up.
I will be living in school for the next few years.
Even if the house is renovated, I can't live in it for a few days.
Why spend this wasted money.
In case I graduate, I will be assigned to a good unit.
Give away another house.
Now all the money spent on decoration has been wasted.
I returned to the store carrying the things.
The master who welded the frame has also finished his work.
Fang wanted to fiddle with it for a few times.
I can't see anything, I just feel it's quite solid.
I paid the money quickly, tied up the things I bought, and found a rope.
Tied to the newly welded frame.
He stepped on the pedals and started riding quickly.
Although it is a size 28, it is a lot bigger.
It’s not as comfortable as the Trinidad mountain bike I rode as a child.
But it’s also a new car, and after a few steps I got used to it.
After a while, we arrived at the nearby police station.
Prepare to go through the paperwork for the car and get it stamped.
At this time, the bicycle was a big item.
Although it cannot compare with the later Mercedes-Benz and BMW.
But its nature is the same as that of a family car worth tens or hundreds of thousands of yuan.
Not everyone can afford to buy or use it.
At least you have to have a proper job.
You need to have a certain amount of savings and a bicycle ticket to buy it.
Therefore, in order to prevent thieves, numbers are stamped on the handlebars.
Each car corresponds to a number and is also assigned a vehicle license.
The name and home address of the registered owner.
"Wow, Brother Fang, why are you here?
Is this the new 28? It looks so impressive!
Just when Fang Xiang pushed the cart into the yard of Jiaodaokou Police Station.
Then a familiar voice was heard.
"Why are you here? What happened?"
Fang thought and took a look, and realized that this was his childhood friend Wei Shengli.
“My dad brought me here to report.
I will start working here from next week.”
Wei Shengli curled his lips and looked towards the house.
It was just that bungalow with the door closed, so you couldn't see anything.
"Sure, you will be a police officer in the future."
Fang Xiang couldn't help but feel happy for his childhood friend and patted him on the shoulder.
"Oh, shit.
It’s because I have no hope of getting into university.
But you bought a new car?"
Wei Shengli twitched his lips and pointed at the bicycle that Fang Xiang was pushing.
“Well, I plan to go to Xinhua Bookstore to read some books during the holiday.
The distance is quite far and it hurts my legs.
Besides, going to college is far away from home.
It's also more convenient to have a car.
Aren’t you here to go through the formalities?”
Fang Xiang admitted it directly.
"How's it going? Are you sure?"
Wei Shengli poked his head out and saw bedding and clothes tied on the back seat.
Knowing that it is prepared for the future.
But when I think about my own achievements, it’s really hard to justify.
Looking at Fang Xiang, he showed concern.
"It's not a big problem, but if I want to hang out with you in the future, I'll have to wait until the holidays."
Fang Xiang looked at his original self, the childhood friend with whom he grew up naked.
There were also some sighs.
Unlike later times, family relocation was indeed a common occurrence.
Except for the children who grew up in the village.
Many people do not have a few fixed playmates since childhood.
So Fang wanted to have a relationship with Wei Shengli.
I still take it very seriously.
As for whether I can help with work or something.
don't care.
The main thing is that this friendship is so rare.
“It’s okay, I’ll stay here from now on.
Now that you're in school, you can write to me.
When I have vacation, I will come to visit you.
Anyway, it’s only a little more than twenty miles in total.
Not too far.”
Wei Shengli would like to cherish this friendship more.
Just say you want to go play with him.
Fang Xiang agreed verbally.
But I don't care much about it.
The job of public security looks glamorous.
In fact, it is quite difficult.
"Then I won't talk to you anymore, go get the car number.
Let’s meet at the usual place tonight and have a drink together.”
After chatting for a while, I saw Wei's father coming out of the room.
Shake hands with those who are seeing you off.
Wei Shengli knew it was time to leave, so he made an appointment with Fang Xiang to meet again in the evening.
After saying that, he prepared to follow Wei's father and leave the police station.
"Hey, Xiao Fang, long time no see.
When will you come to my house to play?"
Unexpectedly, Dad Wei saw Fang Xiang at first sight.
As Wei Shengli’s childhood friend, how could I not know him?
Greeted with a smile.
"Uncle, I'll be there soon. I'll have to come to your house and bother you more often."
Fang Xiang was not polite and responded with a smile.
"Okay, let's go then."
After saying that, Wei Shengli followed his father out of the yard.
He got on the tricycle parked at the gate of the yard and started the engine.
"suddenly"
He left with a cloud of black smoke coming out.
Looking at the three-wheeled vehicle, Fang Xiang was a little surprised.
Nowadays, there are not many people who can ride bicycles.
Small cars are even rarer, and basically only state-owned units have a few.
If you are not at a certain level, you are not qualified to sit.
The same goes for tricycles.
There are very few of them, and not everyone is qualified to ride them.
It seems that Dad Wei has something.
But this has little to do with Fang Xiang.
He turned around and went into the office to start processing the formalities.
The procedures for bicycles are also easy.
With the ticket issued by the department store.
I paid five dollars and it only took a short while.
After stamping the document, Fang Xiang rode his bike to the slum.
"Hey, Xiao Fang bought a new car?"
Just pushed the car into the yard.
I ran into my second aunt and uncle going out.
Fang Xiang smiled and nodded in response.
Unexpectedly, this greeting directly alarmed the third uncle's family in the front yard.
The door of Yan's house was open.
Yan Jiefang poked his head out.
"Brother Fang, did you buy a new car?"
I saw Fang Xiang pushing a brand new bicycle.
He jumped out and reached out to touch it.
He seemed unable to believe it.
By the way, the Yan family also has a bicycle.
But Yan Fugui is a stingy old man.
It's your own car, and your son has to pay for it.
One dollar per time, which is more expensive than renting a car.
Seeing Yan Jiefang's curious look, I thought it wouldn't be a big deal to touch him.
Fang Xiang didn't care and let him touch her.
Unexpectedly, Yan Fugui came out of Yan's house with a stranger.
"Hey, Xiao Fang, you're back.
Let me introduce you. This is the principal of our school.
My last name is Zhao, Director Zhao, and this is Fang Xiang, Xiao Fang."
Under the introduction of the third uncle.
Fang Xiangcai noticed this stranger.
Looks to be around forty years old.
He has a square face and his hair is combed back.
Wearing a neat Zhongshan suit.
If you don’t know, you might think he is a big leader.
"Xiao Fang, I have something I want to discuss with you.
You see, let's go upstairs?"
As a middleman, the third uncle is quite qualified.
Watching Fang Xiang and Director Zhao sizing each other up.
Take the initiative to invite.
"Okay, let's talk.
Let me put my things in the house first."
Fang Xiang was not at all nervous, so he agreed immediately.
After saying that, he pushed his bicycle through the hanging flower gate.
Lock your bicycle in front of your door and put your things inside.
