This statement also made many people nod their heads.

indeed,

They have to pay for tickets to go to the cinema.

I can't just use Director Xu's TV for free every day.

It can be said,
This is less than five cents a day, and just over a dollar a month.
Many residents gritted their teeth and accepted it.

especially,
After Yan Bugui's words,

There were voices of approval from the crowd.

"The second uncle is right,"

"It's already a good treatment for us to live in the same courtyard with Director Xu and watch TV every day,"

"You can't take advantage of Director Xu for nothing, right?"

"Even if Director Xu doesn't bother with us and lets us watch TV for free, we can't let Director Xu pay for our electricity bill out of his own pocket, right?"

"I heard that this TV costs more than a thousand dollars, and you need a TV ticket to buy it!"

"How can you watch TV without paying for it?"

"No matter what other people think, I will definitely pay for it."

"Don't forget, Director Xu could have moved to the cadre building a long time ago."

"If we didn't still remember our old relationship, we wouldn't even be able to see her face, let alone the TV series!"

It can be said,
Following these voices from the crowd,

Many residents who were originally somewhat wavering have become more determined.

Yes!

With Xu Yi's current status, he can definitely move into the cadre building.

The reason why I stayed in the yard was because I was thinking about these neighbors.

If they are not satisfied and make people angry and leave,
I guess the people in other courtyards,

Who knows how they will laugh at them in secret?
As everyone talked,
The issue of charging for television sets was also finalized.

Then,

It's a question of where to put the TV and what time to show it.

These details,
Xu Yi and Yan Bugui had already discussed this.

Now Yan Bugui has made arrangements in an orderly manner.

"This one……"

"The central courtyard is the largest open space in our yard, so the TV is placed there,"

"in addition,"

"Every Tuesday, the TV station has to undergo maintenance, so there are no programs."

"Except for Tuesdays, it's from 6 to 9 every night, a total of three hours. Is everyone okay with that?"

After seeing everyone nodding in agreement,
Yan Bugui also added with a smile.

"There is one more thing,"

"I plan to add a few rows of chairs in the middle courtyard, but these chairs will be charged separately..."

Hearing this,

Many neighbors couldn't help but laugh.

"Second uncle,"

"You are really obsessed with money. You actually found such an unconventional way to make money?"

of course,

Although they complained, the residents present had become somewhat accustomed to it.

Who is Yan Bugui?

Those residents who have been neighbors for many years know this very well.

It can be said,
This is the one who even wants to taste the saltiness of the dung cart.

If Yan Bugui didn't try to take advantage of him,
Instead, they were surprised that the sun rose from the west.

And after this,
Yan Bugui called his eldest son and started to get busy.

It is worth mentioning that,
Previously, due to the separation of the brothers Yan Jiefang and Yan Jiekuang,

This also made Yan Bugui feel disappointed.
after that,

Because they had no jobs, the two brothers went to the countryside to work as educated youth.
Until now,

There is no news at all!
-
In the blink of an eye, three days passed.

have to say,

The charm of this TV is extraordinary.
Especially in the 1970s,
At a time when entertainment activities were already quite scarce, I learned that the No. 95 Courtyard would be showing TV every night from now on.

Even though I know I have to pay.
But there were still many people from other courtyards who came to Yan Bugui to ask about the TV.

So much so that these days,

Yan Bugui even staggered as he walked, and he couldn't stop smiling at all!

no way,
In the past few days, there were about one or two hundred people from other courtyards who came to him to inquire about things.

There are also those who know that they can watch TV for a whole month by buying a monthly ticket for only 1.2 yuan.

He also paid for one without hesitation, as he is a wealthy man.

It can be said,
In this case,
Even some residents in the courtyard who originally had ulterior motives.

Seeing people from other courtyards rushing over to buy monthly tickets,
They couldn't help but panic and started to donate generously.

Therefore,
In the past few days, Yan Bugui has made a lot of money just by collecting monthly tickets.
With this money,

It also gave him more confidence to implement the plan.

I gritted my teeth and ran to the countryside to collect a large number of sunflower seeds and peanuts, intending to take them home and fry them to sell.
As for the price, it is not expensive, only one cent per serving!
of course,

This price was determined by Yan Bugui after careful consideration, not just on a whim.
after all,

The price is too high, most people are reluctant to buy it.

But if the price is too low, I won’t make any money.

Therefore,
The balance here is extremely important.
Anyway,

Yan Bugui has been very busy these days.

While busy registering and making monthly tickets,
On the other side, he also took his eldest son and asked someone to make a bench.
And fry all the harvested melon seeds and peanuts and keep them in stock.

In addition...

He also needs to learn how to operate the TV, change channels and adjust signals, etc.
these things,

Xu Yi has made up his mind to be a hands-off boss from now on.

If Yan Bugui, the person in charge, doesn't even know these basic things,

If you fail at a critical moment, wouldn't it affect your ability to make money?
Therefore,
When it comes to making money, Yan Bugui dares not be careless at all!
-
When the day came for the official charging,
The residents in the courtyard also had dinner early.

We went straight to the middle courtyard and began to occupy an advantageous position.

even though,
The best place.

Yan Bugui had already reserved several rows of benches for VIPs.

but,

Being a little further away doesn't affect the viewing.

At six o'clock in the evening,
The entire central courtyard was almost packed with people.

And a little further back,

Even if you bring a small stool, you can only stand.

no way,
It's like watching a movie in a theater.
There are so many people blocking the way ahead.

If you sit down at the back of the line, you can only look at the heads of the people in front of you!
"Second uncle, hurry up,"

"It's time, let's get started!"

Hearing the urging of the crowd,

Yan Bugui calmly turned on the TV.

of course,

Seeing so many people staring at me,

He was also a little nervous.

Fortunately,

Having been a teacher for so many years, Yan Bugui's psychological quality is considered to be relatively strong.

After calming down,

He also started to change the channel with trembling hands.

quickly,

The scene of "Taking Tiger Mountain by Strategy" appeared on the TV screen.

Many neighbors also started to clamor.

"Just look at this, just look at this,"

"That crosstalk just now was pretty good. How about watching it?"

"No, I want to watch the model operas!" (End of this chapter)
