Chapter Twenty-One

"Uncle Third! It's too hard for you to ride a bicycle in winter at your age. Buy a motorcycle!"

An Minghai shook his head like a rattle: "I really can't afford a motorcycle, seven to eight thousand yuan!"

"You contract the factory next year, and you'll be riding a motorcycle by this time next year. That's awesome! Maybe you'll be able to drive a car by this time the year after next."

"Bullshit! You kid is here to fool me again!"

The two chatted and laughed, and arrived at the Commune Machinery Factory ten minutes to seven o'clock.

"Uncle San! I'll leave my bicycle here in your factory, and I'll go for a walk on the street." Jiang Yu locked the bicycle in the parking shed of the machinery factory, and then came to the station.

The New Year is coming, and there are many people going to the county town to buy new year goods. When Jiang Yu arrived at the station, more than a dozen people had gathered here.

Although there were individual buses called professional buses at that time passing by, there were very few people on them.

An individual bus costs two yuan for a trip of forty miles to the county seat, but a bus from a passenger transport company only costs seventy cents. Many people choose to wait for public buses in order to save one yuan and thirty cents.

But Jiang Yu didn't care about this. When an individual car came, he got on it directly.

It’s no exaggeration to describe the 1986 individual short-distance passenger car in one word.

The car is very small, so there is no problem in sitting in it. Even ordinary people have to bend their backs when standing, and there is a strong smell of gasoline in it. People with motion sickness may not be able to walk very far in this car without vomiting.

Diarrhea.

But there is also an advantage, that is, the individual cars do not park at the passenger terminal, but park directly in front of the joint venture and department store, which saves a section of the journey from the passenger terminal to here.

At 7:40, Jiang Yu got off the minibus.

In the 1980s and 1990s, every city had several particularly chaotic places. Shops, stations, and movie theaters were the three most chaotic places in every city at that time.

As soon as Jiang Yu got out of the car, several young people rushed up to him, trying to wrap him up and move their hands on him.

This is no longer considered pocketing money, but openly robbing.

Jiang Yu didn't want to get entangled with them, so he broke away from them like an eel and went straight to the store.

The best and largest department stores in Donghe County at the moment are the Donghe County Associated Company in front of Jiang Yu, which was put into operation last year, and the Donghe County Department Store, which was also put into operation last year.

The two shopping malls are right next to each other. They are both seven-story buildings, five of which are commercial.

At this time, both shopping malls had just opened, and there were still only a few people inside.

Jiang Yu wanted to buy a TV, so after entering the mall, he went straight to the area where TVs were sold.

Not all of the TV sets used as samples have been turned on yet, some are on and some are not.

There are no TV programs during the day, just a big circle on the TV screen.

Black and white TVs come in three sizes: twelve inches, fourteen inches, and seventeen inches.

The prices are respectively 380 yuan, 400 yuan and 440 yuan.

There are also three types of color TV sets ranging from 14 inches to 17 inches to 21 inches.

Fourteen inches is 2799, 17 inches is 3389, and 21 inches is 3899.

But even though the color TV is so expensive, it still says "out of stock" underneath.

"Master! When will the color TV be available?"

"There was no possibility before. Let's talk about it next spring." The salesperson replied expressionlessly.

Jiang Yu turned around and left. Why are you still here when there is no stock?

After leaving the joint venture, I turned around and entered the department store.

The situation of department stores and associated companies is the same, both have prices but no market.

Jiang Yu frowned and wondered which other mall sold TV sets.

There should not be any in the second department store. It is in the same system as the department store. There are no department stores here, so it is impossible for it to miss.

There is another place that sells TV sets, Wujinjiaodian Chemical Company!

Jiang Yu immediately left the department store and prepared to try his luck at Wujiaohua Company.

As soon as he came out of the department store door, a young man came from the opposite side and bumped into him.

Jiang Yu didn't pay attention at first. His attention was now focused on Wujiao Chemical Company, but after taking two steps, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.

He reached out and touched his chest. His coat was cut open, and the money wrapped in a plastic bag in the pocket was gone.

Jiang Yu turned around suddenly, his eyes immediately aimed at a young man walking out in a hurry.

It was him who hit him just now.

"Don't run! Stop!" Jiang Yu shouted, and he rushed towards the young man like an arrow from a string.

The young man looked back and ran away.

"Brother! What's going on? What's going on?" Two young men blocked Jiang Yu's way.

Without saying a word, Jiang Yu raised his hand and slapped a young man out more than two meters away. He then kicked another young man to the ground with a flying kick.

These two young men were obviously in the same group as the young man who took out his own bag, and they wanted to block their own way to allow their accomplice to escape.

Jiang Yu cleared the obstacle in a matter of seconds, and people continued to rush towards the wallet-picker like a whirlwind.

"Hey! Why do you hit people so casually?" The two blockers left behind yelled in despair.

Beating people casually? If I hadn't been chasing that thief, I would have sent you to the police station.

Jiang Yu stared closely at the person in front of him, not giving the other party a chance to change the package.

The young man bypassed the department store and ran towards the back of the department store.

Behind the department store is an old city area, filled with low brick buildings and alleys.

The young man ran into an alley, and Jiang Yu chased him in the blink of an eye.

This alley is relatively deep, and the walls on both sides are much higher. This should be the gap between two factories. The walls of ordinary people's homes are definitely not that high.

In order to avoid a long night and dreamy dreams, Jiang Yu bent down and picked up a stone while running. With a flick of his wrist, the stone flew more than ten meters like a meteor, accurately hitting the thief's calf.

The thief let out a scream, and his head fell to the ground as the vicious dog pounced on his prey.

The next second, Jiang Yu had already arrived at the opponent's side and stepped on the opponent's head.

Without saying anything, he reached out and took out his wallet from the other person's arms.

Jiang Yu didn't count how much money was in his wallet, he just opened it, glanced at it, and put it in his arms.

"You idiot, how dare you steal my wallet? Do you know what I am doing..."

Jiang Yu suddenly stopped talking here, because he found that there was something wrong with the environment here, and it seemed a bit harsh.

This is a dead end. The walls on both sides are actually three meters high. This is indeed the gap between the two factories. You can also hear the noise of machinery in the two high walls on the left and right.

Why did Mao leave such an alley when this factory was first built? Besides, even for factory security, there is no need to build such a high wall, right?

If a factory builds such a high wall, what do you think the prison will think?

Why is there a dead end here? Building such high walls on both sides is obviously not a problem that Jiang Yu should consider now.
