Chapter 55 Rules for Using Bicycles

I went to the bookstore and bought a set of "Journey to the West" comic books.

I passed the cinema again while riding my bike.

The movie poster of "Shaolin Temple" makes people panic.

The deafening announcement in the cinema made everyone passing by stop in their tracks.

"Brother, are you going to watch a movie?" Pan Dazhang sat in the back seat this time, and he tugged on his clothes.

At this time, the movie theater had finished playing and the audience was coming out.

Pan Dazhang also stopped.

"A movie ticket costs 50 cents, which is usually only 20 cents. It's more than twice as expensive."

Although Xu Jingjin also wanted to see it, she thought the price was too expensive. It was only one and a half yuan for three people. She only made one and a half yuan by selling popsicles for a day.

But today I am working with Pan Dazhang, so if I go to the movies, he will definitely pay for it.

He earns hundreds of dollars a day, so seeing a movie is only a drop in the bucket.

"But what should I do with these two bicycles when I go to the movies?"

If you leave it outside casually, someone will definitely pick the lock and steal it.

Unlike the shared bicycles and shared electric vehicles that filled the streets decades later in previous lives, no one would make a decision.

But in this era, three-handed thieves are particularly rampant, and even smashing, smashing and looting often occur.

Occasionally I see people stabbing people with knives on the street.

Pan Xiaozhang saw in the right corner of the movie theater, next to the gate of the county government, two people wearing red armbands who were dedicated to guarding bicycles.

"Brother, there is a bicycle keeper there. It only costs five cents a bicycle. Oh, I will pay the 10 cents for the bicycle keeper."

Seeing that Pan Dazhang was still hesitating, Pan Xiaozhang gritted his teeth and said like he was cutting flesh.

"Okay, you go and pay!"

The two pushed the bicycle to the custody area.

The person wearing the red armband hung a playing card with a number on the front of the car and handed them a playing card with the same number.

The cards were stamped with the official seal.

Pan Dazhang gave Pan Xiaozhang 1.5 yuan to buy movie tickets, specifically telling him to keep the money in his hand.

Because he saw two young men with long hair squeezing around at the ticket window without buying tickets, obviously trying to steal the opportunity.

"I'll go buy it." Xu Jingjin also saw it. He took the money from Pan Xiaozhang and queued up to buy the ticket.

The three of them started to cut their tickets and enter.

Pan Dazhang paid alert attention to the wallet in his trouser pocket.

He found the seat on the ticket and sat in the middle.

The movie started to show, and the audience was immersed in the world of the movie.

Watching a movie in the cinema is much more enjoyable than drying grain in the countryside, and the cool breeze makes your whole body feel comfortable.

After more than two hours, the movie was finished.

When we walked out of the cinema, the sun was setting.

Fortunately, I had a bicycle and I got home in half an hour.

"That Master Sun has come back a long time ago. What did you three go to and why are you coming back now?"

Pan Dongling saw two bicycles going home.

"Dazhang bought this bicycle with the money he earned today?"

"I didn't buy it, how can I pick it up?"

Xu Jingjin replied: "We went to see a movie."

Pan Dazhang ran into the kitchen and saw a bowl of fried taro buns and a bowl of fried pork with bamboo shoots on the stove.

There are some green vegetables and lean meat soup is cooking in the pot.

Mother is lighting a fire in the kitchen hall.

"You are such a loser. As soon as you get home, you always run to the kitchen to find something to eat."

When he saw Pan Xiaozhang reaching out, he picked up the fried taro buns and threw them into his mouth.

She scolded him: "My hands are so dirty and I don't even wash them."

Pan Xiaozhang retracted his hand and went to wash it.

"Bring the dishes to the restaurant and get ready to eat."

The kitchen and dining room are connected together.

"Sister, how many taros did you cook for the fried taro buns?"

Pan Xiaozhang saw more than ten taros in the corner of the kitchen.

That bowl of pork and fried bamboo shoots was also wrong. Most of it was lean meat, not much fat.

In this era, fat meat is more popular than lean meat.

"I didn't count how many taros there were. I happened to go to Sun Tuozi's shop to buy soy sauce and saw Sun Xinsheng coming back. He said that Dazhang had bought pork and taros and asked me to take them back. When he saw two pieces of pork, he asked me to choose one.

"

Pan Dongling recalled.

Pan Dazhang and Xu Jingjin happened to come in and heard it.

"Xiao Zhang, don't learn to be so sarcastic and care about every little thing. If you don't change your character, no one will be willing to deal with you in the society in the future." Pan Dazhang taught him a lesson.

Pan Xiaozhang naturally wouldn't talk back.

Now he can only listen and obey his brother's words.

"How much did you buy the two bicycles?" Pan Dongling carefully observed the condition of the two bicycles and came back to ask Pan Dazhang.

"The total cost was sixty yuan."

"I really don't know how to save money in housekeeping. I have to spend all the money I have in my pocket. I can only buy one bicycle at most. Your brother-in-law's four brothers only bought one bicycle at home. It's better for you to buy two at once. What a waste of money.

!”

I just saw them riding two bicycles home, and I felt a little bit gambling.

Following these words, Zou Xiuhua started to chatter.

"Mom, you are really verbose. You make money for spending it. Dazhang made money from his first business and he wants to buy a bicycle. Why do you care so much?"

Pan Dongling is finally done with the injustice.

"How much money did you make on this trip?" Zou Xiuhua was also curious.

"I haven't thought about it." Pan Dazhang ate his head silently.

"Brother took the money to the bank to deposit, and opened a passbook, which contained two hundred and fifty yuan."

As soon as Pan Xiaozhang finished speaking, he found Pan Dazhang staring at him.

It made him feel bad.

"Deposited 250 yuan in the bank?" Zou Xiuhua couldn't believe it.

What made her particularly angry was that Pan Dazhang, a brat who made money, instead of leaving it to her, instead deposited it in the bank without permission.

Pan Dazhang saw through her thoughts at a glance.

He felt the need to explain to her.

"I want to use this money to make capital, and plan to use this time to do some business, so as not to have to ask for it from you when I get it, so I will deposit the money in the bank first."

He explained to his mother: "If you want to start a small business, you must have a bicycle to facilitate it. The same is true for Xiao Zhang. If he is willing to study, it will be fine. If he is not willing to study, he must find something to make money.

That's fine. He can use my bicycle to collect scraps or sell popsicles."

Pan Xiaozhang remembered another thing at this time: "Brother, didn't you say that if I went to help you today, each person would be paid two yuan?"

Pan Dazhang took out eight yuan from his pocket and gave each person two yuan.

Zou Xiuhua said no more.

She has known since she was a child that her eldest son is very independent and no one can change his plans.

His temper became so stubborn that even eight cows could not stop him.

Even if he has money, he will never spend it frivolously, unlike his younger son, who has no money in his pocket.

Pan Dazhang looked at Pan Xiaozhang who was smiling and said: "I told you when I bought the bicycle that both bicycles are mine. Now I will make a rule with you."

"What rules?" Pan Xiaozhang was dumbfounded.

Ever since he was little, he has never been able to outsmart him.

"Every time you ride this bike, you have to give me fifty cents. After I charge you thirty yuan, the bike will be yours to manage. Before I take it away, the bike will still be mine. If you agree, that's it. Of course I don't agree.

If so, I don’t care.”

He took the bicycle key from his hand.

"I agree." Pan Xiaozhang thought for a while and finally nodded in agreement.
