He rode his bicycle and went to the post office.

The person on duty was still Lu Shufeng.

"Hello, Sister Lu, I want to make two long-distance calls." Pan Dazhang said to her with a smile on his face.

"Hey, it's you again. It's only the other day and you have to make a long-distance call again." She knew that he was not short of money, so she didn't say any other nonsense.

I connected with him to Gangzhou Long Distance.

I called Xiao Yu, a sewing machine store.

"Sister Xiao, I am Xiao Pan from Governor Yu. Have you received the remittance of 2,000 yuan? Can you schedule the shipment tomorrow?"

"Oh, hello, boss Xiao Pan, I will load the truck at seven o'clock tomorrow and arrive at your store at noon. You can arrange for people to unload the goods. I will give the shipping order to the driver."

"Okay, I will prepare the payment in advance."

After hanging up, he called Huang Aimin of Honghua Trading Company.

"I'll copy your address to the driver, but tomorrow you'd better arrange for someone to wait at the intersection of the old farmer's market around two o'clock in the afternoon, in case the driver can't find your store," Huang Aimin explained.

In this era, telephones were not yet common. To find someone, you had to go door to door according to the address, which was very time-consuming.

"Okay, I will arrange it."

Two long-distance trips cost him more than five yuan.

Lu Shufeng smiled and said: "Young man, you are really not short of money. Your father is from a household worth ten thousand yuan, right?"

Pan Dazhang: "My dad is not, I am."

Ten thousand yuan is nothing, the payment for the second truck tomorrow will be more than thirty thousand yuan.

Considering that I have to go to class tomorrow, it will be too late to go to the bank to withdraw money after class.

He saw that there was still more than half an hour until the afternoon class time.

He rode to the bank.

There is still the short-haired female employee wearing glasses in the VIP window.

"Hello, beautiful sister, help me withdraw 15,000 yuan, thank you!" He handed the passbook through the window.

The short-haired woman looked up and saw it was him.

"Didn't you just deposit the money yesterday? Are you going to withdraw it now?"

On the same day, she also reported to the president: Another customer of our bank deposited a huge sum of fifteen thousand into his account.

If it is deposited regularly, you may need to ask your leader for instructions.

But people have current deposits, and they can deposit and withdraw money at will.

Even though the amount was relatively large, she still reported it to the bank management.

She gave Pan Dazhang fifteen thousand yuan.

"Comrade Xiao Pan, if you have money, you'd better bring it to our camp to store it."

"must."

There were not many bank savings points in the entire county, unlike later where banks could be found on the main streets of the county.

Fifteen thousand yuan, the short-haired woman at the bank put it in a paper bag for him.

The schoolbag he carried was stuffed to the brim.

If you take it to school, if your classmates find it, it will have a bad impact.

So he hurried back and put the money in the safe.

Pan Guangchun and Yang Shitou both asked him for leave: "After finishing work in the afternoon, I want to go home."

Yang Shitou wanted to take his wife and children back to see his parents and buy some pork.

It was impossible for Pan Dazhang not to agree. He just told them: "Tomorrow, a truck of sewing machines will arrive around 12 o'clock, and bicycles and rice cookers will arrive at 2 o'clock in the afternoon. They will be unloaded then."

Both said they would rush over tomorrow morning.

Yang Shitou has a bicycle that a family of three can carry back.

But Pan Guangchun had a bicycle at home, but he left in a hurry last time and didn't take it out.

It would take more than two hours to walk home, which is too hard.

He said to him: "You take me to school now, and then you ride my bicycle home."

Pan Guangchun: "Li Lanying also wants to go home."

"Then just ask Du Shanwen and his son to take care of the business of the video studio. I'll go over there for a while in the evening."

Anyway, the busiest time for the video studio is after dinner, and business is relatively slow during the day.

"But, if you go back together, aren't you afraid that her parents will see her and embarrass you?" He was still a little worried for them.

"So I plan to go back after dinner. When they arrive in the village, the two of them will leave separately. They will be in the dark and the villagers won't pay that much attention. Tomorrow morning, I will go to the secondary substation to wait for her and take my car at home by the way.

Ride out the bicycle and Lan Ying will come over on your bicycle."

Pan Guangchun had already planned it.

"That's okay. You can also go back after dinner early."

…

Taking advantage of the break, he quietly asked He Junjie: "Are you free tonight? If so, go and write an advertisement for me."

"The monitor called, you must be available."

He followed Pan Dazhang back to his residence after school.

Wen Xiaoqin also came back later.

Pan Guangchun and Li Lanying were already cooking the food in the kitchen.

Yang Shitou's family of three all went back.

Pan Guangchun told him that the last sewing machine in the store had just been bought by an aunt.

The store is clean.

"Be more flexible when you go back and don't let Lan Ying's parents meet you."

Last time, Brother Li Lanying said that his father took a month's leave to visit his family, and he is probably still in the village now.

Invite He Junjie to dinner.

Pan Dazhang asked Wen Xiaoqin: "You are alone tonight, so don't go to the hardware store to set up a stall. I'm going to the video room to help."

Wen Xiaoqin thought for a moment and said, "I'll go to the video hall with you, too. I can just set up a stall at the door of the video hall."

Still reluctant to give up the income of a few dollars a night.

At noon, she heard that her sister and brother-in-law were going home, so she went to the vegetable market and bought two kilograms of meat and asked her to take it back.

He also stuffed 200 yuan into her pocket and asked her to take it back and give it to her father.

With an income of several hundred yuan a month, my parents should live a comfortable life.

The three of them arrived at the video room.

I saw Xie Wanrong selling tickets at the door.

"Auntie, you go and have a rest, I will sell tickets."

Du Shanwen checked tickets at the door.

He went to the station in the afternoon and picked up the video tape he had entrusted to him.

I also bought the red paper on which the advertisement was written.

He simply set up a table at the door, and Du Shanwen took out all the video tapes he had retrieved.

During the five video recordings a day, He Junjie arranged them according to the film titles on the tapes and wrote them into posters one by one.

"Monitor Pan, why don't you write more advertisements like you did at the hardware store last time and post more advertisements on the main passages into the city? Wouldn't this attract more viewers?" He Junjie suggested.

"It's not a good thing to have too many viewers. My video hall is only about 70 square meters, and it seems crowded even if there are 100 people in it. So it's not a good thing to have too many viewers."

Moreover, it is almost full every night.

Wen Xiaoqin also set up a stall at the ticket gate, placed electronic watches and stockings, and started selling goods.

Pan Dazhang is also selling tickets non-stop.

Someone stayed at the door of the video room for a long time.

"The ticket price is two yuan. With two tickets, you can buy several kilograms of pork. I'd better stop reading. I'll go to the market tomorrow and buy a few kilograms of meat, okay?"

"Hey, let's go watch the video. I don't watch it every day. I've never watched it before. Let's try something new."

We are probably a couple, and our financial conditions are not that good, so we have to struggle for a long time to watch the video.

Five video tapes are played in a loop. If you buy a ticket now, you can watch three more videos.
