Chapter 15: Marriage Promise
After seeing Chen Peng off, only Zhang Xu and Yu Manjun were left at home.
"I've been running for a day, I've put a bowl of noodles for you."
When Zhang Xu was still counting money on the table, Yu Manjun came in with a hot face.
"Manjun, I just made up for it. You can keep these three hundred."
"I'll keep it?" She was very surprised.
"Look, I just calculated that there are not many relatives in our two families, and there are only ten tables of wine. I calculated according to the fifteen tables, and then took a wedding photo, and then..."
Seeing this, Yu Manjun suddenly flew on his temples and said shyly: "What did you say?"
"What's the money for our marriage?"
"I didn't say it before, just keep everything simple, just buy a wedding candy." She lowered her head embarrassedly.
Looking at the shy girl, Zhang Xu reached out and gently helped her hair on her temples behind her ears.
"I owe you."
Zhang Xu believed that he owed her a lot, but he couldn't pay it back in his previous life, so he naturally had to double it in this life.
"Three hundred, this is almost a year's salary, too much."
"This is the money for the banquet. Didn't your family say that they would need four more items, thirty-six feet? Don't worry, according to this momentum, you can get all the money at the end of the month."
Four major items: TV, audio recorder, sewing machine, bicycle.
No matter which one it was, it would cost a lot of money in that era.
Thirty-six feet: bed, three door cabinets, chest of drawers, dressing table, sofa, four stools.
These are the standard features that were well-known when we got married at that time.
At that time, Yu Manjun's family proposed this condition almost as if they did not want their daughter to marry Zhang Xu.
If it weren't for her strength, there wouldn't be the situation between the two of them now.
However, Yu Manjun was often cold-eyed at home afterwards, and his relatives even regarded her as a joke. The situation was not until her parents went out to do business.
As her body kept rising and falling, sobs also reached Zhang Xu's ears.
He reached out and gently hugged her into his arms. In his life, he just wanted to protect her...
Turning around, before Zhang Xu got up, Chen Peng came to knock on the door.
The sound of clanging is not small.
"Zhang Xu, Zhang Xu, open the door quickly!!!"
Listening to the sound coming from outside, Zhang Xu rushed out without even having to put on his clothes in order not to wake up his father who had just returned.
"What are you doing? We didn't agree to come at 9 o'clock and call someone back then."
"Return the phone call?" Chen Peng said angrily: "You go and see if the phone can be connected!"
My friend's words let Zhang Xu know that something must have happened.
I immediately turned back, picked up the phone and was about to call, but found that something was coming from a hurry and busy voice.
"What's going on?"
"What else can happen? I'm owing a fee. My mother said that she had called the newspaper."
"Damn it, why did I forget it? I still need money to answer calls in this era."
Zhang Xu cursed and couldn't help but miss decades later.
Nowadays, the phone is not only expensive, but also costs money to answer the phone. It is not something that ordinary families can afford. No wonder the house was useless after being stopped for half a year.
But now that he has money, he naturally doesn't have to be stingy anymore.
After putting on his clothes, he ran out without even having to wash up. Moreover, Zhang Xu was different from usual. He deliberately changed into a pair of suit pants with a belt, and Chen Peng was even joked about it on the way.
After walking a few streets, Chen Peng found that the route was a little wrong.
"Zhang Xu, aren't we going to the business hall to charge the phone bill? Why are you going to the commercial street?"
"Didn't you ask me why I'm wearing suit pants? Just come with me."
Zhang Xu just kept Xiaoxiao, and then accelerated his pace.
On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, more and more stores are open on the commercial streets.
These bosses are very smart.
I know that people have money during the year, so I can open the door early and earn money early.
Zhang Xu took Chen Peng into one of the shops selling BP machines. The boss sat at the counter and was having breakfast. When he saw the two of them coming in, he just shouted perfunctorily: "Look at it casually."
Nowadays, there is no future attitude when doing business. You have tough goods in your hands and speak tough.
Zhang Xu looked down at the products in the glass cabinet.
BP machines, also called pagers or pagers, are things that have been around for some time.
When Zhang Xu thought that this thing would be completely replaced in less than ten years, he couldn't help but feel sad about it.
But in this era, this thing looks small, but it is not a small thing anymore.
The price is two or three hundred, and ordinary people can’t afford it, after all, it’s a salary of more than half a year.
"How do you sell this BP machine by the boss?" Zhang Xu asked casually.
"This is the old model, two hundred and eight," the boss said, pointing to the slightly larger screen on the edge with chopsticks: "That's new, Hanxian, four hundred and two."
"Han Xian?" Chen Peng was a little puzzled.
"It's just that you call the paging station and leave a message to display it on the BP machine." Zhang Xu explained.
Seeing this, the boss nodded and put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hand.
Zhang Xu's performance made him know that these two people came to buy things sincerely and their attitudes changed subtly.
"If you want it, I'll give you a little cheaper."
"How much can these two be the lowest?" Zhang Xu continued to ask.
"If you want this old model, take away 24, Hanxian's 38!"
This price is not low, but it is obviously not yet reached Zhang Xu's psychological price.
"It's still a bit expensive. The monthly rent for Hanxian was 15 yuan, and Hanxian's fifty yuan, this is not a small amount of money."
Listening to Zhang Xu's complaint, the boss immediately realized that this was not a novice who had never used it: "Brother, you should have bought it before. I know that the price of this thing is almost the same, and this is already the lowest price."
There is naturally a price space, but for businessmen, they still have to pretend. After all, you can earn dozens of more by just a few words, which is a good advantage.
"I bought it last year and went to Yongfeng's house. The old one was only 240 yuan, but now it's still 24 yuan. Isn't it a bit inappropriate?"
Zhang Xu's words made the boss stunned for a moment, and at the same time he also saw a corner of the banknote exposed in his pants pocket: "Sad, since you said that, I will make friends, the old one is 22, the new one is 36!"
"Six hundred and five, I'll take two of Han Xian." Zhang Xu blurted out.
This price is naturally testing the other party's psychological price.
