Exciting 1979!

Chapter 188 Fei Fei An's Determination (Guaranteed 2 more monthly tickets required)

"What? You've already decided on the house!"

Lu Xiaoyan heard this exciting news as soon as she sat down.

Wei Ming joked, "Yeah, now we finally have a place to put readers' letters."

Lu Xiaoyan asked again: "How much money is still needed?"

Although the flight cost too much and she was prepared to let her two children live a hard life for a few days, the family was not actually that poor. She still had to support Xiao Ming in settling down and starting a business.

Wei Pingan waved his hand: "You underestimated him. He still has money left after buying this house."

Lu Xiaoyan was very surprised: "Isn't it a house in the Overseas Chinese Apartment? It shouldn't be cheap, right?"

If it was just to buy a courtyard house, Lu Xiaoyan felt that Wei Ming should be able to afford it, but the Overseas Chinese Apartment was a building, the only two commercial houses in Yanjing City, and a scarce resource.

Whether it is a key location, whether going to Peking University or entering the core area of Yanjing, it takes less than half an hour to ride a bicycle and more than ten minutes to ride a motorcycle.

Wei Pingan raised two fingers: "It cost this much."

Lu Xiaoyan gasped in joy. Twenty thousand yuan could actually be taken out at once. Could it be that writing under three pen names would be as efficient as that of three people?

So Lu Xiaoyan started urging for more updates again.

Wei Ming has just handed in the manuscript and illustrations for the second chapter of "Black Cat Sheriff", and now she is urging for the third chapter.

In fact, after "Jumanji", "Youth Literature and Art" also called him several times to ask for articles, hoping to work together again. Although the public feedback for "Jumanji" was not as great as "Black Cat Sheriff" and "The Magic Book", it did increase the circulation of "Youth Literature and Art" and was regarded as the magazine's annual hit.

In addition, "Story Club" has published the last chapter of "Heroes Have Always Been Young" this month, and He Chengwei is also thinking about continuing to cooperate with Wei Kuangren to publish a new novel.

Moreover, after buying a house, he would have to buy furniture and appliances, and he was afraid that his savings would be exhausted. Wei Ming also began to consider whether he should do some popular literature or children's literature in between preparing the novel.

Next, Wei Ming told Aunt Xiaoyan about the filming progress of "The Magic Book" that he had learned about. She was quite concerned about this.

When Wei Ming returned to the dormitory after dinner, Biaozi and Xiaomei were there. When they saw him enter the room, Biaozi closed the door and asked, "Brother Ming, how did you find the house?"

Wei Ming took a look at the house he had lived in for more than half a year and said, "It's already been decided."

Hearing this, Mei Wenhua took out the prepared envelope and said, "Brother Ming, this money may not be much for a house, but it is our token of appreciation. Please take it."

Wei Ming felt the thickness of the envelope and knew how much money was in it. It was not a small sum for the two of them.

He was so touched that Mei Wenhua was afraid that he might misunderstand, so she added, "This is borrowed money. You can return it to us after the royalties arrive. There's no rush."

Wei Ming was happy and handed the envelope back: "It's good enough that you have this intention. Who said I was short of money to buy a house?"

"No shortage?" they said in unison.

Wei Ming: "No need, I'll pay the full amount."

"Hiss!" The two were shocked but also felt relieved.

Wei Ming added: "But I'll need your help when the time comes to move."

Wei Ming didn't have much else, just a lot of books, letters, and the tape recorder that Melinda left him.

In addition, he plans to sell the furniture in the original owner's house, and then buy some furniture to enrich his new home that suits his own taste, and he needs his brothers' help with these.

Especially for the room used as a study, at least three sides should be equipped with bookshelves.

Thinking about the price of good furniture these days, Wei Ming suddenly felt that he should accept the envelope.

Wei Ming didn't read or write that night. He discussed with Biaozi and Xiaomei what he needed to buy for his new home.

"A TV, you must buy one!" Biaozi said, "Then I can go to your place to watch TV."

Wei Ming made a note in his little notebook.

Mei Wenhua: "I think the phone is more important. I can call my home directly in the future. It is also useful for business. How convenient!"

Wei Ming nodded. The telephone is more important than the TV, but the school still needs help in this regard. It is not so convenient for ordinary residents to install telephones these days.

As Biaozi and Xiaomei were talking, they suddenly became sad.

"Brother Feng is gone, and Brother Ming is gone too. From now on, it's just Xiaomei and I who are left here."

Mei Wenhua: "Yeah, I suddenly feel it's meaningless."

Wei Ming: "Don't worry, I usually rest here at noon, and Brother Feng's mother-in-law will be here soon, so he will move back then."

"Really?!"

"Of course, his house is too small, and it's not very convenient for three people to live here. We will probably have to live here for a while." Wei Ming said.

It just so happens that I bought a house and I don’t have to occupy Brother Feng’s bed anymore.

The next day, Wei Ming went to the school magazine to ask for leave. Today he had to go with Xiao Wang to complete the transfer procedures, which might not even be completed in one day.

Yanjing did not resume the deed transfer procedures for private house sales until 83, and it was from then on that the transaction of Siheyuan began to flourish. In 80, the sale of houses still required application to the relevant departments, and only after approval could the transaction be carried out. It was common to be blocked without connections. Fortunately, Uncle Ping An had a wide network of contacts, and he had already helped him to greet his friends in the relevant departments yesterday.

Xiao Wang dressed himself up today, and he probably didn't drink last night. When he saw the Suzuki motorcycle that Wei Ming was riding, Xiao Wang suddenly felt that he had asked for a low price. This kid definitely has a lot of money!

However, he did not do such a rude thing as raising the price at the last minute. He simply got on Wei Ming's motorcycle and went to the relevant unit with him.

On the way, he curiously inquired about Wei Ming's identity. What kind of background must he have to be able to come up with so much cash and foreign exchange coupons in one go?

Wei Ming asked him: "You really haven't heard of Wei Ming?"

Xiao Wang shook his head: "Are you still a celebrity?"

Wei Ming: "I'm quite famous. If you like reading novels or are interested in poetry, you should have heard of my name."

Xiao Wang shook his head: "I don't like to read novels, and I'm not interested in poetry, but I do like to listen to songs."

He originally had a tape recorder at home, but now he has given it to his girlfriend. One of the important reasons why their house looks so empty is that he has basically broken down all of it.

Wei Ming: "Have you heard of "In the Field of Hope"?"

This is Wei Ming's most famous song.

"What, you wrote this song?"

Wei Ming smiled and said, "It looks like he has heard of it before."

"I like it very much. I can even sing this song." Xiao Wang demonstrated it immediately.

Wei Ming was even happier: "Then can this house be cheaper?"

"No, that won't work. I'm going to leave this money to my partner, and it won't look good if there are both small and large amounts."

Then Wei Ming began to praise her: "You are so generous. You gave me such a large sum of money as soon as you said so."

"It may be just a matter of money for her. When I arrive in the United States, it won't matter. I just hope she can remember my kindness and keep a place for me in her heart forever."

While chatting with this love saint, they arrived at the destination.

I went to all the government offices I needed to visit today. I have reviewed Xiao Wang's property certificate and Wei Ming's Beijing identity, and then I just have to wait for notification.

If the house purchase and sale application is approved, Wei Ming can withdraw money to make the transaction. With Uncle Ping'an's connections, the process should be able to be accelerated.

Next, Wei Ming also had to speed up. At the faculty and staff sports meeting, Wei Ming signed up for the 100-meter race. Although he was not in the same group with Uncle Ping An, old man Wu Zuxiang was in the same group.

72 years old is not the limit for this Games. The oldest person in this Games is a 73-year-old man.

"Ready..." A student referee holding a starting gun, "Bang!"

"Come on, Vivian, come on!"

At St. Stephen's Church School in Hong Kong, students are also holding their spring sports day.

Zhou Huimin was arranged to participate in the women's relay race because of her long legs, but the overall strength of the four girls was limited and they ultimately failed to get any results.

She was also very disappointed. The most annoying thing was that a girl in the class who didn't participate said that she was the slowest runner in this baton and called her "Fatty An" based on her English name "Vivian", which made her very angry.

Zhou Huimin looked at herself in the mirror for a long time in the school bathroom. She found that she was indeed a little fat, but it was mainly on her face. This had nothing to do with "fat"!

When she returned home, Zhou Huimin found a package from Yanjing on the table. Her unhappy mood immediately disappeared. A Ming replied to her!

After opening the package, she read Amin's letter first.

In the last letter, I used a bottle of cosmetics to test him. I don’t know what he will say. Hey, why is there money in the letter?

Amin read it carefully. He first replied about the work and also sent her his collection of novels. Zhou Huimin had already seen the book "Animals Are Dangerous".

To make it easier for Amin to understand, he also explained the creative background of these works. As for the problem of simplified and traditional Chinese characters, she had to overcome it by herself.

Then Amin asked himself whether those songs were popular.

Zhou Huimin cannot answer this question for the time being because the record company is planning to release an album, so several new songs have not been released during this period.

Then A-Ming talked about the issue of cosmetics. Seeing this, Zhou Huimin smiled happily. He doesn’t have a girlfriend!
Moreover, this handsome young man is very careful about skin care and even asked me to buy whitening products for him. But isn't he a teacher at Peking University? Why is he going to the frontier? Is he collecting folk songs?
At this time, Zhou Huimin took out the photo of Wei Ming that she had put in the book. Wei Ming had sent her two photos at that time, but she only used one and kept one for herself.

Looking at Wei Ming's handsome face, I suddenly understand why he asked me to buy cosmetics for him. Handsome guys always have high demands on themselves.

As she was watching, Zhou Huimin suddenly ran into the bathroom to re-examine herself, and even lifted up her school uniform and pinched her belly.

"I seem to be a little fat." Zhou Huimin sighed and suddenly felt anxious about her appearance.

So the next day, she applied to join the school basketball team, hoping to make herself slimmer.

In addition, she also said "No" to her mother's fish ball balls and Uncle Gui's pancakes. Don't even think about asking me to deal with those that can't be sold. Don't even think about it!
