Chapter 439 Luxury
Early the next morning, Zhou Zhi took Guan Tingting and Jiang Shuyi to the intersection of the new highway terminal.
The main reason was that Guan Tingting got up too early and ran down without eating breakfast, dragging Zhou Zhifei to set off.
Zhou Zhi had no choice but to take her to find Jiang Shuyi, and the three of them ate soy milk and fried dough sticks at the station. In this way, it was quite early when they arrived at the cultural center.
The location of the cultural center is actually the best part of Jiachuan. It is located on the dividing line between the old and new urban areas. The intersection vertically connects the bus station, China Merchants City and the ferry terminal, and horizontally connects Shanghe Street and Xiahe Street.
The cultural center occupies a large area, with its own staircase auditorium, exhibition hall, and an antique courtyard.
Opposite it are Xinhua Bookstore and Sichuan Theater.
Before Binjiang Road was built and Laohe Street near the river was transformed into a new residential area, the vertical line of the new highway was the most prosperous street in Jiachuan.
As for the current cultural center, a huge light box is hung on the outer wall of the white ceramic tiles and blue film glass windows of the four-story street-facing building, with beautiful artistic calligraphy on the light box - looking back at the karaoke hall.
At night, these words will turn into neon lights, and with the music that can be heard on the street, people passing by will not be able to help but look up and take a look.
These days, there is no such thing as noise pollution that disturbs people. It's just that the light has been on for several nights, but the singing has never come out.
Enter the cultural center and go up to the second floor to reach the karaoke room.
The entrance has been transformed into a teahouse, and there is a circle of containers around it. This is a waiting area and a sales area, providing free lemonade, priced tea and coffee, as well as melon seeds, peanut popcorn and the like. snacks.
The popcorn is different from the kind sold at the entrance of the cinema. It tastes of butter and sugar, fragrant and sweet.
The coffee is also much better than many summer cold drink stalls in the county. What is added is not simple milk, but milk foam that has been whipped with sugar. It is a bit similar to the cappuccino of later generations, but the basics are still the same. Nestle, there are not so many tricks.
But the level has been completely opened up.
What sets the class apart is the decoration style.
The waiting area is brightly lit and decorated in a modern style. The walls are blue-gray, the counter and small tea table are milky white, the chair legs and table legs are all beech wood, everything has no sharp angles, and the corners are rounded. The arc treatment looks very comfortable.
There are many decorative paintings hanging on the walls, all of which are vinyl record covers, very elegant and artistic.
Brother Dayong didn’t have many people at his disposal. Sun Damao, who knew electricians and mechanics, and could repair cars, became a key training target to be a DJ.
There are also several female youth workers from Zaolingqiao families. Most of them work in silk and textile factories outside Caiba. They are now laid off or semi-laid off. They often hang out with Brother Dayong and his group. Now they have become Loved the hospitality here.
The foreman is the most outstanding person among them, Xia Yiren, who just won the second prize in the karaoke competition.
Xia Yiren used to work in a game hall, and she was quite meticulous and dexterous in her work. After careful observation for some time, she felt that being a foreman of a karaoke hall was more than enough.
Xia Yiren was dressed very appropriately today, with light makeup and a ponytail, a white shirt, and a collarless suit and skirt. Except for the high heels, she looked like a professional manager.
It can be seen that Xia Yiren loves and cherishes this new job very much, but her appearance is too delicate, which reminds people of another trick - the temptation of uniforms.
Seeing Zhou Zhi looking at him, Xia Yiren was a little frightened.
This kid has a smile and looks harmless, but according to his brother, he is a real ruthless person.
That night, one on two, even with a knife, the kid was not only not afraid, he took out a weird iron rod and plotted against his younger brother, and then controlled him tightly. My brother said that he felt that if he hadn't shouted "submit" at that time, this kid would really have strangled him to death.
The most terrifying thing is that after calling for submission, this kid threw away his hand, and then started chatting with his brother as if nothing happened, and finally saw someone coming from below. They left quickly, not forgetting to give their brother money to see a doctor!
Then at nine o'clock that night, He Dayong took Ma Si, first found him, and then went to the hospital to block his brother. It didn't take more than a minute.
However, what happened next was that He Dayong solved the work problem between himself and Ma Si, and incidentally assigned his brother a job as a stall keeper.
It wasn’t until I entered Brother Dayong’s circle that I learned all about this child’s magic from Brother Zhao San and Sun Ermao.
Looking back on what happened that night and what happened one after another, I and my brother were in someone else's hands.
Still willing.
Is this what a tall kid should do?
Both Ma Si and his brother are careless. They only know that He Dayong has suddenly emerged in Jiachuan and brought benefits to his brothers. However, they have never thought about how a small class leader of a youth work class could There are so many tricks in just one year.
Now even more, this karaoke hall has been built, and it was launched before it even opened. Nearly a thousand people participated, and the secretary and county magistrate came to present the awards in person.
Being able to handle Zhao Sanma, four grandsons and Ermao is not a skill, but being able to navigate the road is the real skill!
"Sister Yiren, where are they?" Seeing that Xia Yiren was a little nervous, Zhou Zhi had to say: "Actually, you don't have to come so early. It only opens tonight and the working time is 7:30 pm."
"Oh, there's nothing going on in the factory anyway, so I was wondering if I could come and help." Xia Yiren finally resolved her awkwardness: "Your cousin and the others went out to eat." Fighting passionately with the two girls behind Zhou Zhi Greeting: "Tingting, you sang so well yesterday. This is..."
"Can you sing now?" Guan Tingting asked: "This is Brother Zhuzi's classmate, Sister Shuyi ."
" Shu Yi is good." Xia Yiren and Jiang Shuyi also said hello, and then said, "You should be able to sing, right? But I don't know how to operate it, and Sun Ermao won't let me touch it, saying that the equipment is very expensive. ”
“He is just bullshit Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "Let me take you to see it. You are the foreman. Although you are not required to master all the equipment, you must be able to at least select discs, select songs, play, and switch. .”
"Oh, I'm stupid, I don't know if I can learn it or not." Xia Yiren was excited and worried at the same time.
“Now that the debugging has been completed, the remaining operations are very simple.” Zhou Zhi said.
"Then I'll open the door!"
When the soundproof door with artificial leather and copper nails was opened, Guan Tingting saw the layout of the karaoke hall and couldn't help but exclaimed "Wow..." out.
Different from the modern and simple decoration style outside, the style here is full of red, blue velvet and gold decorations, imitating foreign palaces.
It's not a real palace, just a play or movie set.
There are also a large number of reflective mirrors, the porphyrin type, which can make a little bumpkin like Guan Tingting, who has never seen the world, marvel.
Zhou Zhi actually hates this style, but he can’t stand that people nowadays think that this is a “luxury setting”.
Even the Shudu Building revolving restaurant and the Lion House have this style, let alone the aesthetics of a small county town.
