Chapter 70: Eighty Years Doorstep (70) Fashionable Girl
An 18-inch large color TV costs nearly two thousand yuan. Qi Xiulan feels distressed. She watches it every day and serves it carefully.
"Follow mom." Gu Shanshan said stubbornly.
"Okay then!" Mo Jianshe looked at the stubborn Gu Shanshan and said, "It would be great if my couple loves studying as much as you do." He said worriedly, "Their grades have dropped drastically."
"With TV hooking me up every day, it would be strange if my grades didn't drop!" Mo Hongying looked at him with her dark pupils and said.
"We can't control this!" Mo Jianshe looked at her worriedly and said, "They are watching secretly. With so many people around, it's hard to teach them a lesson."
"Then let's make a three-part agreement. If your academic performance improves, you will see it openly." Mo Hongying looked at him with deep and penetrating eyes and said after thinking for a while, "Or you can buy a video recorder or a video tape and let the children watch it during the holidays."
"How dare you think about buying a video recorder? This video recorder can be used as a TV set, and the video tapes are not cheap." Mo Jianshe looked at her dumbfounded and said.
"Open a video parlor!" Mo Hongying said casually, "I'll make this money back. I sell it for 20 cents a night outside, and we'll give it a dime, or 5 cents, and then sell melon seeds." She added with a smile, "In the factory There are so many empty rooms, so it’s still possible to clean up a house. With a video recorder, you don’t need to set up an antenna, so you can move it anywhere.”
Since Luo Shuisheng and Wu Xiangyang don't want to do it, let's do it.
"Our father will not agree." Mo Jianshe hesitated and looked at her and said.
"That's because you're not very talkative and didn't convince grandpa forcefully." Mo Hongying looked at him with her eyebrows slightly raised upon hearing this.
"Then what should I say? Please teach me." Mo Jianshe slowed down and looked at her and said.
"The current operating rate in the factory is insufficient. If a young man doesn't find something to do and just does some sneaky things, he will be ruined for his whole life if he is put in a dormitory." Mo Hongying looked at him with gentle eyes and said.
"But these videos are somewhat violent and what makes them special?" Mo Jianshe stammered.
"You are looking for a patriotic video!" Mo Hongying looked at her funny and said, "And there is a labor union in the factory. After showing the video, tell them that it is fake and violates laws and disciplines, so they will be arrested by the police. . We are not Hong Kong Island! That is the capitalist world." After thinking for a while, he added, "It's best to find some videos of modern dramas to learn about other people's lives. Maybe there will be some inspiration for this small appliance!"
"Understood, I'll go home and discuss it with dad." Mo Jianshe said confidently, riding his bike very fast.
Mo Hongying shook her head and laughed when she heard this, and also speeded up.
Mo Hongying rode her car and turned into the factory, "It's not that the new product has been released, why isn't it put into production?"
"The raw materials are being applied to the superiors, so! We have to wait." Mo Jianshe slowed down and said happily, "There is finally hope for this day."
"Can you tell me now? What is the new product?" Mo Hongying looked at him curiously and asked.
"Rice cookers are very popular abroad. They can steam rice, steam buns, porridge, and stew meat... They are multi-functional." Mo Jianshe looked at her with a smile on his face and said, frowning slightly and looking at her, "Why? Didn’t your brother-in-law say anything at home?”
"Dad never talks about work at home." Gu Shanshan said after hearing this.
"Brothers' factories all produce electric fans, washing machines, televisions, etc. We are already lagging behind, so we produce what others don't produce." Mo Jianshe heard this and smiled and said, "This rice cooker requires a small investment and is quick to produce results. It’s very friendly to a two-income family.”
"You've already thought about this advertisement." Mo Hongying looked at him with eyes as clear as water and said.
"Yeah! It's true." Mo Jianshe's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Go back and think about it again, it's really possible."
While talking, Mo Jianshe sent the mother and daughter to the Tongzi Building, "Well... my brother-in-law is in the office all the time for new products. Don't be angry! This is related to the survival of our factory."
Mo Hongying looked at him in astonishment, then smiled and said, "No, I can still distinguish the priorities. Don't worry, I won't lose my legs."
For Mo Hongying, it was a dream come true, so as not to look at each other disgustingly.
Otherwise, she is really afraid that her temper will break out one day and they will be finished together.
So far, no rumors have come out. I don’t know if it’s because they kept it a secret or because they really didn’t have time for romance.
When it comes to whether she is hungry or not, Mo Hongying believes it is the latter.
"Go in quickly! It's getting colder and colder today." Mo Jianshe urged the mother and daughter.
"Goodbye, uncle." Gu Shanshan waved obediently to her uncle and watched him ride away.
&*&
Mo Jianshe went home and used his sharp tongue to convince his father. Ten days later, the video recorder and video tapes arrived.
After all, the TV set is not the big screen of a theater. Find a small conference room that can accommodate a hundred or so people and play it to retired old men and women during the day.
It costs five cents to watch half a day, only two episodes are shown a day, played on a loop, and melon seeds are sold.
Mo Guangming and Qi Xiulan now found something to do.
Mo Jianshe also made three rules for the children. Now that they have video recorders, they don’t have to wait impatiently for the TV station to show it. They can watch it whenever they want.
The prerequisite is that the academic performance can keep up, otherwise, there is no need to discuss anything.
The two children had clear goals and were immediately interested in learning.
&*&
This winter has been extremely cold. Winter has just begun and the heating day has not yet come!
Mo Hongying looked at the goose-feather heavy snow falling down one after another, "Ah! It's snowing. It seems that heating has to be started earlier." Looking at Gu Shanshan who was covering her head like a little bear, she said, "Don't go to night school with me today. "Then he added, "It's snowing, so it's not convenient to ride a bicycle."
"Then I'll go find my aunt." Gu Shanshan said obediently.
"Okay, let's go!" Mo Hongying took her hand and walked through the thin snow to the service club, "Hongmei."
"Sister, why are you here?" Mo Hongmei stood up from the counter and looked at her and said.
Now Mo Hongmei is a fashionable girl, with big waves, exaggerated red plastic earrings, a red woolen coat, and red lips.
"If Shanshan and her grandpa see you dressed like this, it's time to beat you with a feather duster." Mo Hongying looked at her with bright eyes and shook her head slightly. Like a child. Cheap earrings are even worse. It would be better to wear small stud earrings with diamonds."
"Diamond-encrusted?" Mo Hongmei couldn't help but click her tongue, "That's too expensive."
"Gold, gold is not expensive." Mo Hongying added with a smile.
"Tacky." Mo Hongmei curled her lips in disgust, "I am the most popular in the south."
