Return To 1977 Chapter 1085: It makes sense

lnmao.org, the fastest update to return to the latest chapter of 1977!

Of course the temple fair is not just about food.

When it comes to playing, there are even more toys selling.

Hua Leng stick, rattle, kaleidoscope, Monkey face, Bajie face, Guan Gong face, golden hoop, nine-foot nail rake, and Qinglongyan moon knife.

Sword, broadsword, nine-link ring, military chess, chess, Go, tiger chess, rope skipping, kite, traitor (gyro), diabolo, foreign painting, pinball, cannonball, red tassel gun, shell gun, submachine gun, etc. Line rat.

There are also rare clay sculptures, dough figures, sugar figures, sugar paintings, woolly monkeys, New Year pictures, spring couplets, paper-cuts...

It's all dazzling and dizzying.

There was a lot of shouting and playing, and even when talking face to face, you had to cover your ears and shout.

In this crowded and crowded place, people can only move forward bit by bit with the flow of people.

Sometimes I can only stand in place, unable to move a step.

But people are not bothered.

Because "eating, drinking, playing and shopping" is the enjoyment of life in the New Year, and it is also the true meaning of temple fairs.

The so-called "shopping" actually means "squeezing".

The purpose of "shopping" was only achieved after sweating.

Even if the shoe is squeezed off, it is not easy to frown or complain.

Especially for children, in such an environment there is almost everything they yearn for.

So all the flowers and bones in our motherland only feel that their necks are too short, so they stand on tiptoes and look around.

They want to see as much fun as possible

"Huh? What is this?"

"Mom, look where you are!"

"Dad, Dad, I want..."

Sounds like these can be heard almost everywhere.

Of course adults cannot refuse.

Because in the final analysis, anyone who brings their children here for the New Year or the holidays is prepared to spend a lot of money.

At most, in the end, adults can use just one sentence to restrain their children's desires.

"We agreed, if you want this, you can't want that, you can only want the same thing."

As a result, children who know a little bit about things will rarely consider and weigh things carefully.

Through this, I understand one of the most important issues in life - the importance of choice.

The children of the Hong family are no exception.

No matter how rich the family is, the adults in the family will not buy whatever they want based on their temper.

At most, you can buy one more thing than other children, and the limit for one becomes two.

And there is something very different from other children.

The Yu Hong family officially implemented the academic bonus system.

So as long as the Hong family children go to school, they can only spend their own academic bonuses.

As for squandering money, it has completely become a benefit for parents, and they have no chance of getting involved.

What’s interesting is that this actually caused a divide between rich and poor in the third generation of the Hong family.

Because Hong Jun and Shui Xiaoying are both academic masters and rich men.

Hong Jun's personal assets are thousands, and Shui Xiaoying's small treasury also has several hundred, so they can choose the things according to their preferences.

But Hong Yi was really miserable because he couldn't get any academic bonus.

All his belongings cost only five yuan.

This is something he got out of the oil, salt, sauce and vinegar by running errands for his mother.

Today I came to the temple fair. I wanted to see all the good things, but I felt bad buying everything.

As a result, he was the one who was tired of the Hong family's children.

The money was sweating with my hands in my pockets.

Of course, Hong Jun and Shui Xiaoying would never be reluctant to spend their own money on this younger brother.

The problem is, ever since Hong Yanwu discovered this situation, he has strictly banned it.

He also warned Hong Jun and Xiaoying that if such illegal funding is discovered again, not only will it be confiscated, but they will also be fined double.

Not for anything else, just to inspire Hong Yi's ambition and hope that he will realize his shame and then be brave.

It's a pity that for Hong Yi, although he knows the word "shame".

But he also really found learning difficult and boring.

The word "brave" cannot be cultivated no matter what.

Then there was nothing else, so he could only live as a beggar in the family, and became the most miserable among the Hong family's grandchildren.

No way, there is such a big difference between people.

Even if it comes from the same family, the same parents are the same.

Otherwise, how can we say that everyone is a unique individual?

And speaking of this, we should also mention the most special person in the Hong family.

Unlike most adults, Hong Yanwu also showed extraordinary interest in the toys that children love.

Not only did he have to squeeze past every stall and take a closer look.

It’s great to pay money when you meet someone you meet.

He wants dough figures, sugar paintings, clay sculptures, sugar figures, and mane figures, and the ones he buys are more satisfying than the children.

And not only did he buy it, he also had to chat with the craftsmen for a while, and he even had to leave his phone number.

This made the Hong brothers and Shui Qing feel very weird, angry and funny.

In particular, Hong Yanzheng and Hong Yanwen had the biggest objections, saying that he was more like a child than a child.

I also blame him for only allowing the state officials to set fires and not allowing the people to light lamps. He was in charge of the children's spending money, but he did whatever he wanted.

This is tantamount to setting a bad example for the Hong family’s grandchildren.

But no one expected that Hong Yanwu had very good reasons and did not agree with the opinions of his two brothers at all.

Not that they don’t understand, it’s not for fun, it’s just like buying “Chrysanthemum White”.

It’s for work and business.

He even complained about them.

"You are really good at it. You are just adding to the blame. Don't you know that I run the handicraft factory in Zhaoqing Lane? Let me tell you, these are the things I plan to develop into tourism products."

"I tell you, don't underestimate these folk gadgets. They are not only exquisite but also have national characteristics, especially because of their low cost, so foreigners will buy them even more. In the past, they did not have this strength, but now they have If the conditions are met, then we have to recruit troops, recruit talents, develop new varieties, and even develop more potentials in these handicrafts.”

“Look at this human figure and clay sculpture. Isn’t it wasteful just to make some small things with pokes and sticks? Why not make more exquisite and detailed ones such as Fu Lu Shou, Journey to the West, Maitreya Buddha, Hehe Erxian, and the Four Great Immortals? What’s wrong with mythical beasts?”

"Look at this mane man again. This is a unique thing in our capital. Not only is it placed on a copper plate and can be rotated freely when struck, it is an interesting 'drama on the plate', but it also perfectly portrays the characters of Peking Opera. presented."

"Look, this Monkey King's armor and flag are all hand-painted. Whether it's the chainmail, the seawater teeth on the robe, or the pompoms and pheasant feathers on the helmet, they're all lifelike. With such bright colors and exquisite workmanship, for foreigners, what could be more representative of the Beijing style than bringing such a thing back home? ”

"There are also these sugar figures and sugar paintings. I am determined to introduce them into our kitchen. For example, if I make a plate of caramelized yam and caramelized apples, I will insert a sugar painting of a butterfly next to the dish. Wouldn’t it be nice to make some sweet and sour pork tenderloin or some fried meatballs? How fun would it be to put a few little sugar pigs on the plate? ”

“Our Chinese food’s emphasis on plate presentation emerged in the first few years. I think the use of carvings for cold dishes and the use of egg whites are very troublesome, but it’s different with Tang Ren’er and Tang Hua’er. It’s completely cost-effective. Things can even be done in advance, especially if the company holds activities for children in the future, it can also be used to add interesting content..."

Don’t say it, it’s really the case.

At this time, not only did Hong Yanzheng and Hong Yanwen run out of words, but Shui Qing also became embarrassed.

As a veteran in the shopping mall, Hong Yankang couldn't help but agree.

He raised his thumb and said, "Brother, your business acumen is quite good. I played with a lot of people when I was a kid, but I never touched your mind. Don't tell me, foreigners like such national and cultural things. As far as I know, Japanese dolls are extremely expensive, but Westerners are flocking to them."

"And the idea of ​​sugar figures and sugar paintings you mentioned is really a fantastic idea, but it also has practical significance. Western and Japanese food always boast of their presentation. The layout is beautiful, but they are actually looking at the sky from a well. I can completely imagine that if we follow your idea, the "Manhan Tower" we are about to open will definitely cause a sensation in Tokyo."

As a result, Hong Yanwu also became interested, and the two brothers really started to talk about practical applications.

While others shook their heads and smiled bitterly, no one knew.

Hong Yi also started his first bargaining.

He pulled Hong Jun's sleeve, squatted in front of a stall selling second-hand goods, and fiddled with a pile of copper coins.

"Uncle, how do you sell these copper coins?"

"One dollar for three, kid, why are you asking this? This is not for you to play with."

"Uncle, can you make it cheaper? I just want to buy these two and make feather shuttlecocks..."

Hong Yi held up two Kangxi Tongbao copper coins in his hand. The vendor really didn't take them seriously because there were too many such coins these days.

"Then give me fifty cents. Children, if you want to buy something, give me money. If you don't have money, don't make trouble. I still have to do business."

Hong Yi didn't want to talk nonsense anymore, he quickly took out 50 cents, put it down, and took away the copper coins.

Hong Jun still laughed at him as he walked away, "Why did you buy this? You don't know how to kick shuttlecock? You're spending money blindly."

Hong Yi’s eyes were shining and he whispered.

"Brother, you don't understand. This seems to be a big money copper mother. Go to Liulichang and find a shop to sell it. Each one can be exchanged for at least thirty yuan..."

"Huh?" Hong Jun acted as if he didn't recognize his brother.

"Are you talking nonsense? How do you know?"

Hong Yi took it as a matter of course.

"There is one in our old house. When my grandfather was sorting out the porcelain and furniture, he was afraid that I would disturb him, so he gave it to me as a toy to play with. He told me about it and taught me how to read it. The word..."

Hong Jun was completely speechless.

But my heart said, hey, God is really starving to death.

If this kid really succeeds in this vote, he will be ranked first in the class in three subjects.
