That year the flowers bloomed 1981

Chapter 600 This is a robbery
September 23rd, Monday, afternoon.

Li Ye rode his bicycle to find Wen Leyu. According to convention, today was the day when the two of them would go to Zaojun Temple to improve their meals, but Li Ye suddenly had something to do today, so he had to go and tell Wen Leyu.

When he arrived outside the English Department classroom, Li Ye found that Wen Leyu and Li Juan were already waiting for him.

Li Ye said embarrassedly: "The teacher called me over today and said that several fellow students are coming. What do you think we should do tonight?"

The "teacher" that Li Ye mentioned is Zhang Qiyan, a big shot in economics. Over the years, he would occasionally call a few of his favorite disciples over for dinner, and since joining, Li Ye has been the chef.

However, as my senior sister Yu Xiufen, senior brother Peng Rui, Zou Mengcheng and others got married and started families, such gatherings became less and less frequent, sometimes not even once a month.

It’s just that Wen Leyu never went with Li Ye, and Zhang Qiyan should have known Wen Leyu’s background, but he never asked.

"We're not going. You go by yourself! I'm taking Xiaojuan out to a restaurant today."

Wen Leyu really didn't go, and then turned to ask Li Juan: "Xiao Juan, what do you like to eat? It's suitable to eat lamb in autumn, how about we go eat hotpot?"

Li Juan licked her lips and said, "Actually, I can cook. There is mutton in the refrigerator of Zaojun Temple. We don't need to go to the restaurant."

"Well, let's go."

"it is good."

Li Juan rode her new bicycle and took Wen Leyu away like the wind.

There is not only beef in the refrigerator of Zaojun Temple, but also fruit, Red Bull, Coke, and ice cream, all of which are the little girl's favorites.

Moreover, she can eat and watch TV at the same time. Li Juan feels extremely happy now.

Li Ye watched the two girls walk away before turning around and riding towards Professor Zhang's house.

In fact, Zhang Qiyan suddenly invited a few fellow disciples to come over today, and Li Ye could more or less guess the reason.

Today is September 23rd in Beijing time, but it is still September 22nd in Lighthouse time.

A few days ago, the finance ministers of five developed industrial countries, including Britain, Japan, West Germany, France, and the five central bank governors, held a meeting at the Plaza Hotel in New York.

Such a big move could not be hidden from anyone, especially from an economist as sensitive as Zhang Qiyan.

Zhang Qiyan also has friends in Dengta, so today, he is probably going to reveal some "latest news" to Li Ye, Yu Xiufen and others.

Li Ye rode his bicycle towards several new buildings in the school dormitory area. Professor Zhang was allocated the "Professor Building" last year, and the living conditions are much better than before.

"Buzz~"

When Li Ye was about to arrive, he suddenly heard the sound of a motorcycle behind him, and the sound was very fast.

Li Ye just turned around and saw a scooter passing him with a "buzz" and rushing forward quickly.

Li Ye was a little surprised. Biker gangs were not uncommon at this time, but the one who just passed by was a female rider.

Moreover, she was not wearing a helmet, had very short hair, and wore sunglasses. She looked like a tomboy and looked very fierce.

[Were girls in the 1980s so fierce? ]

Li Ye chuckled and rode slowly to Professor Zhang's building, only to find the motorcycle again.

He went upstairs and knocked on the door, and the person who opened the door for Li Ye was the girl with short hair.

The girl looked at Li Ye twice, then asked directly: "Are you Li Ye?"

"."

Li Ye did not answer, but asked: "Excuse me, who are you?"

The girl with short hair frowned, as if she was somewhat dissatisfied with Li Ye's attitude.

"Li Ye is here, come in quickly!"

Teacher Lu, who was wearing an apron, heard the noise and walked to the door. She smiled and invited Li Ye in, then introduced him, "This is Cai Minying, whom we often mentioned to you. You have to call her Senior Sister."

"Oh, hello, Senior Sister."

Li Ye suddenly realized that it was the overseas student who was called a "tomboy" by Yu Xiufen and others who had returned.

Cai Minying was from the class of 80, Department of Economics. She had gone to study abroad at Dengta when Li Ye enrolled. According to previous descriptions by Yu Xiufen, Zou Mengcheng and others, she was at least a "genius" level person.

Before Li Ye became Zhang Qiyan's apprentice, Cai Minying was recognized as Zhang Qiyan's best disciple. However, Li Ye was an unreasonable "evildoer" and naturally had no intention of comparing himself with such a person, so he just gently called out "Hello, Senior Sister" and then went to the kitchen to help Teacher Lu start working.

Cai Minying frowned again, then leaned against the kitchen door frame and looked Li Ye up and down.

"Duoduoduoduo~"

The kitchen knife in Li Ye's hand was like a skilled dancer, cutting the radish and potato into thin strips. His ordinary cooking unexpectedly took on an artistic flavor.

Cai Minying's frown widened unconsciously, and she took the opportunity to exchange a look with Teacher Lu.

Teacher Lu left the kitchen and went to another room with Cai Minying.

Then Cai Minying asked in a low voice: "Teacher's wife, why did you and the teacher call me here today?"

Teacher Lu shook his head and said, "I really don't know. Your teacher will be back soon. You can just ask him directly later."

Cai Minying looked at Teacher Lu and said directly, "Teacher's wife, you don't have to hide it from me. Are you and the teacher going to bring us together?"

"Pair you two together? Match you with whom?"

Teacher Lu looked at Cai Minying in surprise, then followed Cai Minying's gaze towards the kitchen, and then couldn't help laughing.

"Master's wife, please don't laugh! I've only been back home for a few days, and I've already been annoyed by all the matchmakers. They all think I won't be able to get married. I didn't expect you and the teacher to think so too."

Cai Minying grumbled a bit and then changed the subject, looking at Li Ye's back and said, "But this junior fellow looks pleasing to the eye."

"."

Teacher Lu almost couldn't help laughing out loud, so he had to wave his hands and said, "Xiao Cai, you really misunderstood. Li Ye has a girlfriend. Your teacher and I would never do that kind of thing."

Cai Minying's face immediately turned red, and she said very awkwardly: "Master's wife, why did you only invite him and me to come? In the past, it was Senior Sister Yu who came to cook, and I thought..."

Teacher Lu took a breath and said, "Your Senior Sister Yu is married and busy with work, so she will probably come a little later.
But you have been busy with your studies these years, it is indeed time for you to get married. If someone in your company introduces you to a partner, it is out of kindness, so don’t be picky, the more you pick, the worse the relationship will be.”

"."

As a person with experience, Teacher Lu shared his experience with Cai Minying for a while, but Cai Minying ignored it, her face flushed, and she was obviously absent-minded.

It was not until Professor Zhang, Yu Xiufen, Zou Mengcheng and others gathered together that Cai Minying's expression returned to normal.

At the dining table, Professor Zhang took out a piece of paper with a series of information handwritten on it.

"This is the news I just got from my friend. The people at the Lighthouse are really generous!"

Yu Xiufen took the paper first and looked at it together with her husband Wang Zhiyuan.

After reading it, Wang Zhiyuan said with disgust: "This is robbery. The people in the lighthouse are so shameless."

In fact, the original intention of the Plaza Accord was for the five governments to jointly intervene in the foreign exchange market to cause the dollar to decline in an orderly manner against major currencies in order to resolve the huge trade deficit of the beacon country.

So no matter how it is beautified on the surface, it cannot cover up the essence of the lighthouse man's robbery.

Zhang Qiyan waited for Wang Zhiyuan to finish speaking, then suddenly asked Cai Minying: "Xiaoying, what do you think?"

Cai Minying had just returned from the Lighthouse Country, so everyone looked at her, wanting to hear her thoughts.

Professor Zhang also smiled, as if he was waiting for something.

Cai Minying thought for a moment and said, "Lighthouse people are at the forefront of the world in economics, so there is a reason for this. We need to study and learn from them."

"To be honest, I felt very uncomfortable after returning to the mainland, because many of us still have a big prejudice against the Western free economy. There are obstacles everywhere. Teachers, seniors, and seniors, I always feel that in this unprecedented moment of change in hundreds of years, we should do something."

Yu Xiufen, Zou Mengcheng and others looked at Cai Minying in surprise.

Because what he said was a bit bold.

But teacher Zhang Qiyan looked at Li Ye with a smile.

Li Ye glanced around and said calmly, "Is the Western free economy beneficial to the poor?"

"Our purpose has always been to benefit the poor and protect the poor. If this direction is wrong, then whether it is Western or Eastern theories, they will not be able to adapt to our local conditions."
