When you come out of the south gate of No. 5 High School, you will see a very busy street with many shops along the street.
Wang Chen was originally going to catch a bus at the bus stop in front, but stopped at a bicycle shop on the roadside.
"Classmate, do you want to buy a bicycle?"
The boss had just opened the rolling shutter door and was about to take out the new bicycles in the store for display. When he saw Wang Chen who was stopping to watch, he immediately showed a big smile.
Wang Chen pointed. "Boss, how much does this car cost?"
The owner of the bicycle shop looked in the direction of his finger and was suddenly confused. "Ah? You want this car?"
What Wang Chen is referring to is an "antique" grade 28-inch bumper!
"That's right!"
This kind of bicycle has been popular for decades in the last century. At first, its status in people's minds was no less than that of the current BBA. However, with the development of the times, it has long been eliminated.
Only some elderly people and people with nostalgia will keep it.
Wang Chen It is rare for a teenager to look at a 28-inch big bar instead of those red and green mountain bikes.
At least the shop owner had never seen it before, so he couldn't help but smile and said, "This car is the treasure of my shop!"
The treasure of the store is of course a joke. In fact, his father bought this 28-inch big bar from someone else at the beginning of the year. He almost broke his bones after riding it once.
The shop owner threw it in the shop to see if someone would buy it.
It turns out!
Wang Chen was too lazy to talk nonsense to the other party. "I want three hundred yuan."
"Tsk!"
The store owner chewed his teeth and said, "Classmate, my 28-inch big bar is an original product from Phoenix. It is at least 80% new. Isn't 300 yuan too little?"
Wang Chen turned and left.
"Ah!"
The store owner quickly shouted, "Here you go, I'll sell it to you for three hundred!"
The main thing is a shuttlecock.
Wang Chen spent 300 yuan and bought this 70% new Phoenix Brand 28-inch large bar.
The Alipay QR code scanning service has just been launched in 2012, and it is still several years away from being fully popularized. It is naturally impossible for such a street store to have a QR code for payment.
Wang Chen Before going back to school last night, I found an ATM machine and withdrew 10,000 yuan from me.
Riding on this 28-inch bike, Wang Chen immediately became the most handsome guy on the street!
The return rate is quite high.
He rode to International Digital City, which was not far away.
Wang Chen The mobile phone he is using now is also second-hand. Not only is it in good condition, but it is also very slow in daily use.
Changing the machine is necessary.
Wang Chen Originally planned to change to a kidney machine. After all, the kidney machine is now the best in all aspects.
But when he saw the "MEIZU" sign hanging on the door of a store, as a former "kerosene", he turned directly in.
Then I spent 2999 to buy the latest Meizu mobile phone.
Meizu MX Quad-core 32GB version.
Classic black and white, classic dots, and classic Flyme...
Familiar taste.
In fact, there is also a 64G version for sale in the store, but the price is more than 1,000. Wang Chen thinks it is better to save money.
He doesn't play mobile games anyway.
After buying the new phone, Wang Chen transferred the address book of the old phone to the store, installed various commonly used software, and also set up a 3G data plan.
As for the original worn-out mobile phone, Wang Chen replaced it with a mobile phone holder.
When he rides the 28th bar again, he will be able to enjoy high-tech mobile phone navigation services.
Speeding all the way, Wang Chen rode for more than ten kilometers and arrived at Shangma Village located next to the Feima River.
This area was originally a rural area, but with the continuous expansion of the main urban area of the provincial capital, it has now been included in the new urban area.
Feima River originating from Feima Lake winds eastward, nourishing the vast land on both sides of the strait, as well as villages.
Shangma Village is a large village, and there used to be an industrial zone nearby, so it is very prosperous and lively.
Now that the entire industrial zone has been relocated, the land in the village has been included in the requisition scope, and the villagers have also moved to well-off new homes a few miles away, so the old village is much deserted.
Only some old villagers still stay in their old homes and will not leave until official demolition begins.
But Wang Chen knows very well that they can still live there for three or four years.
He found a local agency nearby and proposed to rent a house at Old Shangma Village.
The agent was surprised.
Not only because Wang Chen is young, but more importantly, Old Shangma Village is about to be demolished. Will renting a house at this time get kicked in the head?
Out of good intentions, he explained the situation to Wang Chen.
Wang Chen smiled and said, "It's okay. You can live here as long as you want. I'll move out as soon as it's demolished!"
He emphasized. "This can be written in the contract."
Since Wang Chen doesn't care, it's impossible for the intermediary to push the business out and immediately pick up the phone to contact the landlord.
The agent himself is from Shangma Village and is very familiar with the local situation. After understanding Wang Chen's requirements, he quickly found a suitable house for Wang Chen.
After making an appointment with the landlord on the phone, he took Wang Chen directly to view the house.
The main focus is efficiency.
The landlord is a gray-haired old man, who the agent calls "Grandpa" whenever he sees him. His home is a two-and-a-half-story rural house. Not only does it have a spacious front yard and backyard, but there is also a three-thirds vegetable plot grown next to it.
The old man is getting older, and his family has moved to a new village, so he is worried about him staying alone in his hometown.
But this old man felt that if no one lived in his home, it would soon become overgrown with grass and become ruined. Regardless of whether it was going to be demolished, he stubbornly stated that he would not move unless someone came to live in his home.
As for rent, it is a trivial matter.
The landlord's requirements coincided with Wang Chen's needs, so the two parties hit it off.
Wang Chen rented this house for 1,000 a month, which also comes with the right to use three-thirds of the vegetable patch next to it. No deposit is required for paying the electricity bill, and the furniture and appliances inside are also free to use.
Live until demolition.
Wang Chen paid the first month's rent and agency fee, and got the house key and a contract.
Everyone is happy.
After the landlord and the agent left, Wang Chen walked around the house and finally came to the third floor terrace.
The terrace is very large, with some Huahua straws placed in the corner, and two tables and chairs.
Sitting on the chair, you can not only enjoy the pastoral scenery on both sides of the Feima River, but also enjoy the scenery of Feima Lake Wetland in the distance, bathing in the wind from the wilderness, it feels really comfortable.
Such a good location, such a big house, if it is converted into a B&B ten years later, it will probably cost one thousand yuan to stay there for one day.
After admiring the scenery of the countryside, Wang Chen went downstairs and left.
Before leaving, Wang Chen hung a new door lock on the door.
In the next two years, this will be his comfortable home in the provincial capital! ——
The first update is sent.
