Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 2186, the epitome of the times
Wang Erzhu is carefully wiping his car clean, and at the same time carefully inspecting important places such as the tires, brakes, and fuel tanks of the car, and then installing anti-skid chains on his car in rainy and snowy weather.

Although this is not a luxury car, it is just the most common and cheapest car Volkswagen in Ming Dynasty. Volkswagen is different from Mercedes-Benz. The founder of Volkswagen was determined to popularize cars to every ordinary people from the very beginning, so It was named Volkswagen.

Mercedes-Benz cars are often expensive at several thousand taels, which ordinary people simply cannot afford, but Volkswagen is different. The price of Volkswagen is generally a few hundred taels.

The Volkswagen Zhengde First Year Edition car in front of me is the cheapest car ever launched by Volkswagen, and the price is only 500 taels of silver.

The price of 500 taels can be said to be very cheap. It has allowed countless ordinary people to realize their car dreams. It also made the sales volume of Volkswagen leapfrog Mercedes-Benz and became the best-selling car in Ming Dynasty.

Wang Erzhu and Li Erxiu, as the first Shanxi people who came to the capital to work, have been working in the capital for more than 20 years.

The two couples came to Beijing in their early 20s, and now they are both in their 40s.

For more than 20 years, the two couples basically insist on going home every year. No matter how bad the weather or situation is, the two couples will try their best to go home for the New Year every year.

After finishing all inspections, Wang Erzhu also looked at a well-preserved bicycle next to him. This Mercedes-Benz bicycle was bought by himself at a cost of more than 20 taels back then, and it was the earliest Mercedes-Benz bicycle produced.

The quality of Mercedes-Benz products is Chinese New Year. It has been almost 20 years. The quality of this bicycle is still very good, and it can still be ridden. Although the parts on it have been changed a lot, it looks old. Not very fashionable anymore.

But Wang Erzhu was still reluctant to throw it away, because it was the first bicycle in his life.

It was more than 20 taels of silver back then, but the husband and wife worked hard to save more than half a year's income, and at the same time they were the first people to buy a bicycle.

When I rode it home for the New Year, it was very face-saving, and it was much more western than driving home now.

Wang Erzhu still clearly remembers that not many people in the entire capital owned bicycles back then, let alone his hometown in Shanxi.

It's different now, cars are already running all over the street.

Next to the bicycle is a motorcycle, still in good condition.

This motorcycle is also a Mercedes-Benz motorcycle, and the quality is very good. Wang Erzhu has been riding it for more than ten years.

For his bicycles, motorcycles, and cars, Wang Erzhu cherishes them very much, and they are always well maintained. They still look brand new now.

"Old man, I don't need you for Chinese New Year now."

Wang Erzhu touched his motorcycle. In order to buy this motorcycle, the couple also spent about 200 taels of silver. At that time, silver was much more expensive than gold now.

Of course, this motorcycle is always with Wang Erzhu through wind and rain. Whether it is going to work or returning to his hometown in Shanxi during the Chinese New Year, this motorcycle has brought Wang Erzhu a lot of convenience.

In the past, riding a bicycle home was very tiring and took a long time, but it is different when driving a motorcycle. parents and children.

But riding a motorcycle is really cold, very cold.

I used to have nothing when I was young, but now that I am old, I really can't bear it anymore, and I still want to buy a car.

Of course, after working in the capital for many years, Wang Erzhu and Li Erxiu not only bought bicycles, motorcycles and cars, but also bought a house in the capital.

The two husband and wife who live frugally can also be regarded as the epitome of this era.

When I was young, I didn't know anything. I followed the army of migrant workers and went to work in the city. I learned skills and some basic cultural knowledge in the factory.

Slowly and gradually, I became the supervisor and backbone of the factory, and my income increased, and my life became better. I bought a house here in the capital, and built a house in my family.

The bicycles, motorcycles and cars in front of us seem to be telling the story of this ever-changing new era. In the past, having a bicycle was the dream of countless people.

Slowly turning into a motorcycle, whizzing by, fast-speeding motorcycles used to be the dream of many people, but soon, slowly turned into a car.

The extremely expensive cars have become a tool for people to show off to each other, and those who can afford a car must be good people.

Times are changing so fast!

It is so fast that the history of thousands of years in the past has not changed as much as it has in just a dozen or 20 years.

Not only the means of transportation seen before, but also the high-rise buildings in the capital, the roads extending in all directions, the trains running through all corners of the country, etc. Daming has undergone earth-shaking changes in just a few decades.

When this great change is condensed to the individual, Wang Erzhu in front of him is the epitome of this era.

"It's good to have a car, and there are so many things you can take home!"

Here, Li Erxiu kept stuffing big and small bags into the trunk of the car, stuffing them full, food, clothing, and all kinds of things, wishing to take everything home .

"Do you know how to buy a car?"

"It was too expensive when I bought it."

Wang Erzhu said with a smile.

"It's good, but it's really expensive."

"There are more than 500 silver cars."

Li Erxiu said with a smile: "But it's really worth it. If you have a car to go home for the New Year, at least you won't be cold. It's much more comfortable and faster to go anywhere."

"Is everything ready?"

Wang Erzhu smiled and shook his head, women are like this.

"It's all taken."

"Are all the doors and windows locked at home?"

"It's also locked."

"Okay, let's go, first go to school to pick up the second child, and then go to the boss's factory to pick up the boss."

Wang Erzhu got into the car, and as the car slowly drove out of the garage, he officially embarked on his way home during the Chinese New Year.

After more than 20 years, not only Wang Erzhu and Li Erxiu have gradually grown old, but their children have also grown up.

Wang Erzhu's eldest son, Wang Dawa, doesn't know much about reading, and he is currently working in a factory in the capital. Because it is far away from the house Wang Erzhu bought, he usually lives in the factory with his wife.

The second son, Wang Erwa, can read, and was admitted to Imperial College of Technology. He is currently in his third year and will graduate soon. Before he graduates, there are already factories, businesses, etc. rushing for him.

As for the third child, who is a girl, she was married last year, and she was pregnant last year, and she is currently taking care of the child at her in-law's house.

The old fourth king is relatively young, only 12 years old, and he is still studying at home.

Wang Erzhu drove the car to the factory of the eldest son Wang Dawa.

"Dad, did you buy a car?"

When Wang Dawa saw Wang Erzhu driving a car to pick her up, her eyes widened.

I haven't heard any news, but my father actually bought a car.

Immediately, Wang Dawa couldn't help touching her car carefully.

"Volkswagen Zhengde First Year Edition Car!"

He recognized it right away. As a young man, he dreamed of owning a car of his own, and also wanted to buy a house here in the capital.

However, based on the current income of him and his wife Chen Sanli, it is still difficult to buy a car and a house. Buying a car is okay, and you can still afford it after a year or two. As for buying a house, it depends on whether you can inherit it. Dad's house.

Chen Sanli beside Wang Dawa's eyes were also bright. Her parents-in-law really made a lot of money, not only bought a house here in the capital, but also built a beautiful house in her hometown, and now she even bought a car.

My husband and wife, two young people, haven't bought a house or a car yet, but the two of them are driving a car first.

"What are you looking at? Hurry up and get in the car. Next year, I will take the driver's license test. After the test, I will let you drive."

Wang Erzhu glared at his eldest son, his eldest son is really not good for anything, it's fine if he can't read, and he doesn't even study hard if he wants to buy a house or a car, so he doesn't look at it See how many catties you have.

But there is no way, who let me be his father, since I bought a car, it will probably be cheaper for him in the future.

Now that I have a car, I can move in to live with myself in the future, and I can bring my child with me. My eldest daughter-in-law is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

Keep yelling that if you don't have a house or a car, you won't give birth to the old Wang's family, which is annoying.

"Thank you dad, thank you dad!"

Hearing this, Wang Dawa was very happy immediately, hurriedly got into the car, touched left, looked right, seemed very happy, very fond of it, thinking about driving to and from work in the future scene.

Seeing him like this, Wang Erzhu sighed helplessly.

I have three sons, but now I only have this apartment and a car. How to divide the family property in the future will be a problem.

However, both Wang Erzhu and Li Erxiu feel that they are still young, in their 40s and in good health, and they can continue to work for at least ten years.

Now that I am the technical backbone and manager of the factory, and my income is not bad, I still have to find a way to buy two more houses in this capital.

After driving the car, Wang Erzhu also came to Imperial College of Technology and picked up his second son, Wang Erwa. Wang Erwa was much calmer than Wang Dawa.

He is someone who has seen the world in school, but he is not as unpromising as his eldest son.

Wang Erzhu drove the car and took his family back to his hometown in Shanxi.
