The car giant started by marrying the daughter of the king

Chapter 33 A Life of Waiting

People are in good spirits on happy occasions!

Even though I spent a day dismantling the V8 engine, my whole body aches.

But when I thought about the huge reward of $1000, I felt refreshed as if I had directed several times.

"I ate too much meat at noon today, so I won't go out to eat at night."

"After get off work tomorrow, let's go directly to Donglaishun and try the shabu-shabu mutton there!"

On the way back, Jiang Hui did not mention the money sharing to Chen Chenxing.

But after earning so much money, I must eat well.

"Okay!"

"I've only eaten the mutton hotpot at Donglaishun once, and I've never had the chance to eat it again!"

Chen Chenxing's family conditions are not bad, but there are many brothers and sisters in the family, which is a heavy burden, so they seldom go out to eat.

The master has made a fortune and is treating us to a meal, so there is no need to be polite.

The two parted at the intersection near the clinic's dormitory building and went back to their respective homes.

"Xiao Jiang, you left your wife alone at home on the weekend."

When passing by the guard, Jiang Hui gave Lao Li a cigarette.

Although he is not a social bull, if he wants to build a career, he must interact with others.

"I went out to help someone repair a car today. The environment was so dirty that Zhu Lin had to stay at home alone."

Jiang Hui and his wife are the most handsome people in the clinic's dormitory building. It is impossible for Lao Li, as the security guard, not to know them.

These guards who have retired from the battlefield may know some important people, so there is no harm in making good friends with them.

"I saw your wife bought a lot of things this morning. I guess she has already prepared them and is waiting for you to come back."

Old Li knew that Jiang Hui must be anxious to go home, and the fact that he stopped to give him a cigarette showed that he respected him very much.

So he definitely wouldn't pester Jiang Hui to chat at this time.

"I'll chat with you another day. I worked on the car today and I'm all sticky. I'm going to go take a shower first."

If you want to take a good bath, you have to go to the big bathhouse.

However, Jiang Hui has never been used to it, so he would rather not go if possible.

Just fill a bucket of water in the water room in the corner of the tube building and flush it in the toilet next to it.

The inconvenience of taking a shower every time made him more determined to buy a courtyard house.

Jiang Hui parked the car quickly and went up the stairs carrying the car repair tool box.

Their dormitory is on the third floor, which is neither too high nor too low, and is considered a pretty good floor.

It was already six o'clock in the evening and every family started preparing dinner.

The whole corridor was quite lively.

Jiang Hui greeted a few people casually and quickly came to the door of his dormitory.

Zhu Lin, who heard the noise outside, came out with a smile on his face.

"I bought an old hen today. I'll use half of it to make soup and the other half to make chicken and potatoes. Go wash your hands quickly. It's almost time to eat."

After hearing what Zhu Lin said, Jiang Hui noticed that there was a casserole on the table, and some food was simmering on a low fire on the honeycomb coal stove.

Although I had a big meal of fish and meat at noon, I had done so much hard work in the afternoon that my 23-year-old body had no problem with fighting ability.

It's really different to go home and find someone has dinner ready for you.

"I'm going to take a shower first, and then I'll come and taste my wife's cooking."

For a clean person, taking a bath is a necessity in life.

After Jiang Hui finished speaking, he put down his things, picked up a wooden bucket, soap and towel, and prepared to take a shower.

Of course there is no shampoo, shower gel, facial cleanser or anything like that.

A bar of Fan brand soap worth thirty-six cents is the best auxiliary tool for bathing.

Even this soap requires a soap ticket to buy it.

It is normal for women to take half an hour to take a bath, but men don't need to take that long unless they want to ejaculate.

Only ten minutes later, Jiang Hui came back with wet hair.

Jiang Hui has long lost the habit of using a hair dryer to dry his hair after taking a shower.

There is no way. He wants to maintain this habit, but he has no conditions.

Even if Zhu Lin washed his hair, he could only wipe it a few more times with the towel.

Fortunately, it’s not a big deal in summer and it dries quickly.

Two sets of bowls and chopsticks were already placed on the table.

The bowl was a large porcelain bowl, far from being as snow-white and exquisite as the ones of later generations.

However, the old hen soup inside whetted Jiang Hui's appetite.

After finishing the whole bowl in one breath, Jiang Hui said with a sense of satisfaction: "The disciple is better than the master. Your cooking skills will make mom admit defeat next time."

Jiang Hui likes delicious food, but doesn't really like cooking.

At this time, you must praise your wife's cooking, encourage her to keep improving, and mobilize her enthusiasm.

If you don't perform well the first time and start finding fault with it, then you'll have to wait until you can cook for yourself next time.

"Hens cost 1.16 yuan per pound, which is not too expensive, but it's hard to buy."

"We are lucky today. A batch of them just came to the vegetable market."

Although Zhu Lin has a big appetite, he seems to eat in a very polite manner.

It's completely different from Jiang Hui's wolfing down of food.

"If you really want to eat it in the future, it's not impossible to buy it in the suburbs or rural areas."

"It's just a bit of a hassle, I'll try to find a way to get it done with money."

Jiang Hui is so active in writing books and repairing cars, isn't it just to make money?
Although in this age, money is not everything.

But with money, many problems can still be solved.

For example, various tickets can still be purchased in underground markets in some places in the capital.

Even if you have money, you can buy most of the tickets.

Meat coupons, grain coupons, cloth coupons, shoe coupons...

Some people with a keen sense of smell have already started making money in these places.

Especially starting from 78, many educated youth returned to the city, but the factories were unable to accommodate so many people.

At this time, many people began to think of ways to make money.

"You don't have to work so hard. The salary of the two of us is more than enough for us to spend."

"If it's not enough, I can always ask my dad for more. He always has more money than he can spend every month anyway."

It’s confirmed. Professor Zhu’s little cotton jacket is definitely leaking air.

This is a way of taking advantage of one's mother's family. It's not polite at all.

"By the way, I went to the US Liaison Office in Beijing to repair a car today and made $1000 directly. You can keep it for yourself later."

At this time, I will remember that today's income has not yet been submitted.

However, before he stood up to get the money, Zhu Lin's watery eyes widened and asked, "You earned $1000 just by repairing a car?"

Even someone who has no concept of money knows how big $1000 is.

Even if she didn't eat or drink, it would take her three years to save so much money.

The key is still the US dollar!

If you go to the black market, it will be no problem to exchange three or four thousand RMB.

It may even soon become a level where one dollar is exchanged for six or seven RMB.

After all, after the reform and opening up, many people in the capital are very enthusiastic about going abroad.

No wonder Zhu Lin reacted so strongly.
