In the previous life, all the young people who lived in the red house ran away with their children, leaving only retired parents and white-haired father-in-law and mother-in-law walking in the yard.
Sun's father came back with a vegetable basket and bought a piece of spareribs and a tube bone, as well as a basket of kelp, onions, green peppers, tomatoes and eggplants.
Sun Shun and Sun Yuan also got up, went to the toilet and washed up, and the family sat around the dining table, eating spicy dried radish that Sun's mother had pickled herself, drinking porridge, and eating steamed buns.
"Yuanyuan, have you finished your homework?"
"Brother, it's done!"
"Mom, my sandals are broken. I need to buy a pair of sandals this morning. Can I take Yuanyuan out for a walk?"
Sun Shun and Sun Yuan looked at their eldest brother. Sun Yuan was happy. She had already thought about what she wanted to buy. The eldest brother could just pay for it, while Sun Shun could only read at home.
"Jianjian, you have to go to work soon, how about buying a pair of pigskin sandals? Mom will get the money for you later!"
"Mom, no need. I still have a lot of private money. Anyway, I will get my salary in less than two months. I have enough money to buy a pair of pigskin sandals!"
Sun's mother gave her 15 yuan for living expenses every month (nothing during winter and summer vacations). Apart from buying clothes, shoes and hats, Sun Jian never asked his parents for more money. He saved 162 yuan in the past three years.
During the Chinese New Year in this era, Sun’s mother would give her one yuan as a new year’s gift. The school would organize students to visit the rent-collecting courtyard, the peasant movement training center or a spring outing to East Lake. Sun’s mother would also give her one yuan, but Sun Jian and the others could still save four or five cents. .
It’s not that Sun’s mother is stingy, nor is Sun Jian stingy. The same is true for Liu Yue and Li Ting’s family and themselves. In this era, parents from working-class families don’t have much money, and their children don’t have the habit of spending money, unlike in the 1980s. The only child born after that, the little emperor in the family, was born with a better life than his (her) generation, but Sun Jian never complained about his parents, and what he got from his parents could not be obtained with money.
Self-esteem, self-improvement, hard work, frugality, gratitude and peace!
Although in this era, when commuting in the summer, it is common for men to wear plastic, foam and flip-flops, and women to wear plastic slippers and platform shoes, Sun Jian wore foam slippers home from the * Hospital branch this time, and went out to buy steamed buns in the morning. Along the way, he felt Awkward, lacking in civilization, the thinking of the past life has caused mischief, and it cannot be changed even for a moment.
It is difficult to spit, throw confetti, make loud noises and swear in public places, and it is even more impossible to fight. Sun Jian shows the quality of a senior intellectual with every move and gesture. Civilized literacy has been deeply rooted in the bone marrow, and there is no need to deliberately Discipline yourself.
Sun Jian now urgently needs to buy a pair of comfortable casual leather sandals. He has not worn sandals for more than 20 years in his previous life. He wears leather shoes and sports shoes to and from get off work all year round. In summer, he also wears leather shoes, trousers, shirts, and T-shirts. Rarely worn, slippers are worn at home, and cloth shoes or sneakers are worn when walking in the community.
In this era, in the hot summer in Jiangcheng, an eighteen-year-old young man wearing elegant trousers and leather shoes would be thought by passers-by to have been released from the Sixth Pavilion.
Seven years have passed since the reform and opening up, and the country is full of vitality and vitality. People's income has grown rapidly, living standards have improved significantly, and prices have also risen significantly. Inflation is intensifying. People who are getting richer are increasingly demanding household appliances and leather products. The demand is strong and increasing day by day.
At the end of the previous year, in order to buy Sun Shun a Taiwan Yanwu dual-card cassette recorder to learn English, Sun's father queued for more than two hours at the Gangcheng Department Store to buy it. It cost Sun Shun 321 yuan and cost Sun Shun his father and grandson's money. Two months’ salary!
The price of a pair of cowhide leather shoes produced by Jiangcheng Leather Factory No. 2 has been raised from 25 yuan to 32 yuan this year, a price increase of nearly 30%!
In urban households, the "three turns and one sound" of watches, bicycles, sewing machines and radios that were popular in the early days of reform and opening up have become today's "four major items" of televisions, refrigerators, washing machines and tape recorders.
Sun Jian still remembers that in the third year after he officially started working (probably in the autumn of 1991), he bought a Mercedes-Benz sheepskin jacket produced by Jiangcheng Dongfang Leather Factory in Jiangcheng Shopping Mall for 430 yuan. I met a middle-aged colleague who was wearing a Mercedes-Benz sheepskin jacket similar to his own. When asked, he bought it in the fall of 1979 for only 57 yuan and still wears it today.
In twelve years, wages have increased threefold, and sheepskin jackets have increased nearly sevenfold!
In the fall of 1996, the price of this style of sheepskin jacket rose to 638 yuan. Even though it continued to rise, the leather factory finally disappeared.
As Sun Jian knows, there are many domestic famous brands in Jiangcheng, such as Yingge TV, Hehua washing machine, Xidao refrigerator, Hongshanhua electric fan, Changjiang audio, Daqiao sewing machine, Yizhihua washing powder, Binjiang soda, etc. , and finally disappeared.
-------
In his previous life, although Sun Jian's clothes were not luxurious, they all reflected the taste of a middle-aged successful man. After his rebirth, he bought a pair of plastic sandals that cost 2 yuan and 70 cents. They were uncomfortable to look at and even more uncomfortable to wear. Soon I will go to work as a surgical teacher, and I will have to face my colleagues who are intellectuals. People rely on clothes, and Buddha relies on gold. Even when he goes to school, he is no longer the college student he once was. When doing business to make money, customers see him wearing cheap plastic sandals. I won’t be able to do business with you, and I won’t dare to sell goods on credit!
A group of people who got rich first have appeared, and their outfit is very important.
You cannot wear a pair of plastic sandals today and suddenly change to a pair of soft-soled leather shoes tomorrow, spending hundreds of yuan without blinking an eye. Parents, neighbors, classmates, friends and colleagues must have a psychological adjustment period.
Sun Jian's family's financial situation is good!
Parents, neighbors, and friends think that the school provides high income and good benefits, while classmates and colleagues think that the family has good conditions and overseas connections.
Sun Jian will definitely become a billionaire in the future, not by virtue of his business acumen, but by virtue of his "experience". Rebirth is like a cheating golden finger. Does he know what is popular this year? What will be popular in the future? Which brands will disappear from the market? Which brands will rise?
In my previous life, I had changed four units. I was the top leader in two units and the second leader in one unit. I had dealt with people at all levels and was able to deal with businessmen with ease!
Management capabilities and IQ and EQ are there. The most important thing for a business person is to grasp the pulse of the market, seize the opportunity, and dare to think and act.
One step first, step by step!
In spring, summer, autumn and winter, prepare a few outfits. It is better to be sparse than extravagant, not to be luxurious, but to be tasteful. Walk into Jiangda Hotel without being blocked by the doorman!
Enter the Friendship Mall and avoid being laughed at by foreign devils!
"Goldlion, a man's world."
We are all familiar with the commercials on TV these days!
