Chapter 196 The value of great writers
The next day, early morning.
Lin Xianzhi arrived at Yangcheng Restaurant on time and promised to be Fang Yan and Han Yuemin's guide at the reception banquet last night.
"Teacher Fang, we have made arrangements for you and will set off this afternoon."
"Sorry to trouble you."
Fang Yan thanked him and asked him to take care of Han Yuemin.
Lin Xianzhi agreed and took the two of them to the Gaodi Street Market, which was not far from the Yangcheng Restaurant.
After a while, a plaque titled "Gaudi Street Industrial Products Market" came into view.
You can see stalls on both sides of the road. Some are built with iron frames, some are simply bamboo frames, and some are "car stalls".
The stalls display a variety of clothing, shoes, hats, and small merchandise, attracting people passing by to choose from.
"They are so courageous!"
Han Yuemin lowered his voice and said: "We are already under a big purge, but how dare you be so blatant and risk your life?"
Fang Yan said: "The bigger the storm, the bigger the storm. The more expensive the fish is!
Lin Xianzhi said in wonder: "Teacher Fang, brilliant! ”
Han Yuemin looked at the steady flow of customers and heard that the small vendors only need to pay one yuan to the street every day to set up stalls legally and do not have to pay taxes. There is envy in his eyes.
"Brother-in-law, how much did you bring this time?"
Fang Yan glanced at his bag.
“Not much, this is the number.”
Han Yuemin held out two fingers.
“You brought so much, do you still want to pour something back on this trip?”
Fang Yan tacitly guessed that it was two thousand.
"You can't say that. I plan to buy some of the latest fashions and sell them in a tailor shop."
Han Yuemin was excited, "I'll also learn some by the way."
< br>Fang Yan smiled, and suddenly glanced at a cold drink machine from the corner of his eye, his eyes flashing.
Han Yuemin followed his gaze and was surprised: "What is this?"
"Oh, it seems to be called a cold drink machine."
Lin Xianzhi introduced that it was an imported product displayed at the Canton Fair, which can continuously keep drinks cold.
Fang Yan was very interested, "How much does a cup like this cost?"
"3 cents."
Lin Xianzhi asked curiously, "Teacher Fang, are you thirsty?"
Looking at Fang Yan and shaking his head, Han Yuemin made a calculation in his mind.
A cup of 3 cents may cost less than 1 cent. This is not a cold drink machine, it is simply a money printing machine!
"Brother-in-law, what are you thinking about again?"
"Iwako, I am thinking that in October, I must come to the autumn meeting. No matter what, I must build a cold drink machine."< br>
“It will be too late by then. The business of this cold drink machine is most prosperous only in the summer.”
"Yes, how could I have forgotten this? Who drinks cold drinks in the winter."
"But I can think of buying a machine. Congratulations to your brother-in-law, you have made progress again."
Fang Yan said in a low voice that although trendy fashions are profitable, they are only short-lived.
No matter how high the huge profits are, as more and more bad guys enter the market, they will slowly turn into small profits.
After all, the technical threshold for the business of "trailing masters" is too low.
Unless, you either get a train leather like Wang Shi, or you are so bold as Mou Qizhong that you exchange planes with Lao Maozi, or there is another way...
"Yanzi, you are right."
Under his guidance, Han Yuemin's horizons gradually opened up.
Dialect said: "Science and technology are productive forces."
Han Yuemin said: "To tell you the truth, I had planned to go to Lin Family Courtyard at the beginning of the year to buy an electronic jacquard machine or an electronic sewing machine. , if Wen Ou hadn’t caused such a big accident this time..."
"It's enough to have this intention."
Fang Yan said: "There is still an autumn meeting."
Han Yuemin heard him say that he wanted to open up the pattern, and his mind was full of thoughts about what he had to do With these equipment, you can open a tailor shop or directly set up a garment factory.
Fang Yan patted his shoulder, thoughtfully.
On the crowded streets, "international businessmen" of different skin colors will appear from time to time, holding sticky notes with store numbers on them, and shouting "myfriend" as soon as they enter the store. Some even use Ask skillfully in Cantonese "How much is it?" and "How much does it cost?"
At this moment, a voice that sounded like a Beijing movie came out of the crowd.
"Teacher Fang!"
Looking closely, Fang Yan saw Wang Shuo and Ye Jing walking towards him.
Wang Shuo was surprised and happy, "Teacher Fang, it's really you!"
Han Yuemin got to know Wang Shuo and the others under the introduction of Fang Yan, and looked them up and down.
Fang Yan asked curiously: "Why are you in Yangcheng?"
Ye Jing was embarrassed and couldn't open his mouth. It couldn't be said that their roast duck restaurant couldn't open, the business was declining, and they were forced to "go overseas".
Wang Shuo, quite a bachelor, told the truth, "Teacher Fang, we are here to make a fortune."
Han Yuemin suddenly realized that his co-authors, like himself, had taken a leave of absence without pay. .
“I also bought a lot.”
Fang Yan glanced at the bell-bottom pants in their bags.
“Hey, let’s make a little fortune.”
Wang Shuo said excitedly that he was a treacherous man for the first time.
"Are they brave, or do they have brains..."
Han Yuemin looked at their delighted expressions and whispered: "Yenjing is now cracking down on speculation, and they dare to shoot Hitting the mouth.”
Fang Yan smiled and said nothing, then Wang Shuo patted his chest and said magnanimously: "Teacher Fang, it's fate that we meet today. Why don't we have a meal at noon? How about we treat you?"
"You Are you sure?”
Fang Yan and Han Yuemin looked at each other and smiled.
Ye Jing had a premonition that something bad was coming from their smiles.
The facts proved that his hunch was right!
At noon, everyone was sitting in the box of Yangcheng Restaurant.
One after another Cantonese delicacies were placed on the round table, which made Wang Shuo and Ye Jing dazzled and frightened.
“How much money do we have left with us?”
Wang Shuo panicked.
“There is not much left, and the remaining money has to be used to buy a digital watch.”
Ye Jing looked at the table full of dishes and the bottle of Merlot wine, and her heart no longer ached, but was bleeding.
"What should I do? I've let all my words out..."
Wang Shuo broke into a cold sweat.
At this moment, Fang Yan looked at Lin Xianzhi with a smile:
"Yesterday's meal cost you "Flower City" money. Today's meal has been discussed by the two of us. , I must invite you back once, and also thank you for being our guide this morning.”
"This...this..."
"Don't refuse, you can't return this dish after you order it."
Fang Yan turned to look at Wang Shuo, "For this meal, you guys will Let me invite you and find another opportunity when you return to Yanjing. "No problem, Teacher Fang!" Wang Shuo's face was red, and the two of them breathed a sigh of relief as if they had been granted amnesty.
At this moment, Lu Qiwen came to the private room again and said that he was specially gifting a dish, which was a new dish developed by Chef Huang Zhenhua.
Fang Yan blurted out, "This fish looks like Eastern Star Spot."
"Teacher Fang is indeed a big foodie!"
Looking at Lu Qiwen enthusiastically saying the name of the dish "King of Blue Sea Fish", Wang Shuo's eyes widened and his brain was buzzing.
Is this the value of being a “great writer”?
…………
“Hiccup~”
After returning to the guest house from Yangcheng Restaurant, Ye Jing touched her bulging belly and said with envy in her tone:
“This little wine Drinking and eating this Cantonese food, Teacher Fang is living a much better life than us.”
“I didn’t expect this meal to cost so much.”
Wang Shuo said with lingering fear.
Ye Jing said: "It's a shame that we didn't treat each other in the end, otherwise, I don't know how to settle the account."
Wang Shuo said with envy: "Teacher Fang is so awesome You're so arrogant."
"If you ask me, don't bother with bell-bottom pants. You might as well hang out with Teacher Fang, and maybe I can drink some soup."
Ye Jingzha. Pulled the waistband of his pants.
Wang Shuo rolled his eyes: "Didn't I tell you that it is impossible to write, and it is impossible to write in this life? If I write again, I will be stinking dog shit! Stinky turd!"
Ye Jing suddenly said something : "Was the meal delicious just now?"
Wang Shuo didn't even think about it. Thinking, "It smells so good!"
Ye Jing said: "If you can become a great writer like Teacher Fang, you can eat it every day in the future."
Wang Shuo curled his lips: "Look at you With this kind of talent, after just a few meals, you will be so beautiful that you don’t even know your last name.”
"Hey, you just have to be poor."
Ye Jing said: "If I didn't have talent, it would be no problem for me to call Teacher Fang 'Master', and I would follow him from now on. ”
Wang Shuo said: “There is no talent for literature.” Yes, your talent for being a bitch is evident."
Ye Jing counterattacked: "Don't ridicule me. When the time comes, you may become a bitch yourself."
< br>“嘘嘘嘚!”
Wang Shuo said angrily: "Isn't it just a meal at Yangcheng Restaurant? When we get rich, we will come here every day."
After chatting for a while, Ye Jing suddenly said: "Teacher Fang was just here It was said at the dinner table that he was going to Shekou to give a literature lecture, right?” The Street Market is as crowded as ever.
At this moment, a stall owner selling small hardware held the "Yangcheng Daily" and shouted:
"Teacher Fang is coming to Shekou!"
Suddenly, stall owners and passers-by were attracted around and asked, "Which Teacher Fang is there?"
“Of course it’s a dialect!”
“The dialect in which “The Fission of the Qin Dynasty” was written!”
“He gave a lecture in Shekou yesterday!”
< br>
The stall owner opened the "Yangcheng Daily", and a whole page was devoted to reports on dialect literature lectures.
"Where is it, where is it, show me."
In an instant, many people swarmed over, and many people ran to the postal newsstand in Grand Cross.
Wang Shuo looked at the crowd going crazy for dialect, and pulled Ye Jing and ran over.
I saw a bustling crowd, with citizens crowding three floors inside and three floors outside just to buy that day's newspapers such as "Yangcheng Daily" and "Nanfang Daily", as well as the "Story Club" published that month. ”, “Popular Film” and other magazines.
If you come a little late, you can only watch the backs of others reading newspapers.
Wang Shuo squeezed out of the crowd, holding a newspaper in his hand and swearing.
"Stop scolding, let's take a look at what Teacher Fang said."
Ye Jing leaned forward and what came into view was the "Change of Zhou and Qin".
“Although there were 24 dynasties and countless dynasty changes in Chinese history, in fact, there were only 4 real social transformations.”
"The changes in Shang and Zhou! The changes in Zhou and Qin! The changes in Tang and Song!"
"And the changes in ancient and modern times starting from the end of the Qing Dynasty!"
"The transformation from the Shang Dynasty to the Zhou Dynasty, we The concept of 'China' began to emerge..."
Wang Shuo looked from top to bottom and couldn't help but read it.
There were many people like him. Around them, there was a group of people who had not grabbed the newspaper.
"Although Zhou is an old state, its destiny is to renew."
"It means, 'Although the state established by the Zhou people is very old, its destiny lies in innovation'."
" The reason why the Zhou Dynasty perished and the reason why the Qin Dynasty replaced the Zhou Dynasty and ended the Warring States Period was because the Zhou Dynasty stopped innovating and did not continue. The reason for the continued reform is that the other six countries did not reform more thoroughly than the Qin State, and were eventually defeated by the Qin State after the reform. "
"From then on, the Central Plains officially entered a unified state from a feudal state. ! ”
“Putting the idea of ‘Great Unification’ into practice! ”
"..."
"If you are poor, you will change, if you change, you will be general, and if you are general, you will last!"
The voice became louder and louder, and the people who read the newspaper became increasingly unable to control their excitement.
“Teacher Fang said it very well!”
“Don’t interrupt, just say it quickly and continue talking!”
One by one, they approached Wang Shuo and urged him to continue reading.
Wang Shuo, as if his body had been hollowed out, said in a slightly hoarse voice: "There is no more down there."
"What!?"
In an instant, everyone was There was an uproar, ghosts crying and wolves howling.
“Why is there nothing down there!”
"That's right, we just talked about the 'Shang and Zhou Dynasties' and 'Zhou and Qin Dynasties', but we haven't talked about the last two yet!"
"How can we stop talking about something exciting?"
“This is so immoral!”
“I’ll beat your lungs out!”
The crowd, who were confused by the broken chapter, were extremely angry and couldn’t stop Cursing to send a razor blade to the newspaper that broke the article.
When talking about dialects, everyone praises "Monkey Sai Lei", "Hao Baguan", "Teacher Fang is good"...
People in eastern Guangdong love to eat morning tea. This article about "The Changes of Zhou and Qin" in dialects "It immediately became a topic of conversation among them, spreading more and more widely.
Wang Shuo, who was among them, could hear discussions about "dialects" and "reform" everywhere. He also saw newspapers such as "Yangcheng Evening News" and "Nanfang Daily" commenting on "The Great Qin Dynasty" in endless articles. Fission" and "The Changes of Zhou and Qin".
There is a scene of "spreading throughout Yangcheng and causing a sensation throughout the city"!
