Setting up a phone is not a trivial matter after all.
Anyone who installs this thing these days will definitely be looked down upon by others, and it is indeed very convenient.
So when the phone was installed, even though Hong Yanzheng complained, he solemnly posted a piece of paper on the wall above the phone at home.
He told his parents that the contact numbers of several Hong brothers and sisters were on this piece of paper, as well as Shou Jingfang’s.
Let parents press this to call whomever they want. They also said that the numbers copied with red pen are barrier station 112, long-distance registration station 113, directory inquiry station 114, service desk 115, long-distance inquiry station 116, and time. Taiwan 117, fire 119, burglary 110, neighborhood committee, police station, etc...
Then I started using the phone again and told my relatives and friends at home one by one about my home phone number.
During this process, he not only felt honored and enjoyed being a factory director, he even developed a game mentality towards the phone at home like a child.
Because this is completely different from work phone calls, which are for serious matters.
It’s different from a public phone, you have to spend your own money.
Now, it’s just play, just play. And it didn’t cost him any money, it was the money of that **** Hong Yanwu!
No, think about the abominable behavior of the "hometown thief", think about those wicked words about the golden urn, who else is playing with this kid's phone?
This is not enough, how about just playing on the phone?
Thinking of this, Hong Yanzheng, with evil fire in his heart, quickly dialed again while his family was busy having dinner.
As the phone buzzed for a while, the voice of Xiyuan Erqiuzi’s mother came quickly on the phone.
"Where are you? Who are you looking for?"
Hong Yanzheng quickly lowered his voice and started to pretend.
"Furuli No. 2? Hey, this is the General Affairs Department of Polar Bear. Yes, yes, call Hong Yanwu...Ah, there is an emergency in the factory, please ask him to answer the phone..."
Immediately afterwards, I heard the voice of Qiu Zi’s mother walking away and calling Hong Yanwu at the door of Chen’s house.
Not long after, I heard Hong Yanwu's voice running from the house again in response to the words.
But when the other party picked up the phone, no matter how much Hong Yanwu said "Hey" to the phone, Hong Yanzheng just didn't speak.
This took two minutes, and the other party could only hang up.
Then another two minutes later, Hong Yanzheng dialed again.
This time he imitated the tone of the general affairs section chief of his unit and spoke to Qiuzi’s mother in an official tone.
"Ah, that's outrageous. I had something urgent to deal with just now, and I've been waiting for him. Why did he die now? Young people are just irritable and too impatient. Yes, you call him again... ”
Then Hong Yanzheng gently put down the phone, lit a cigarette, listened carefully to the sound on the phone, and had another good time...
Never mind how the Hong brothers used the phone to make them cough, let’s talk about the third “peanut”.
On April 28, 1982, the "Jianguo Hotel" jointly built and operated by the Beijing Branch of China International Travel Service and Hong Kong Huamei Hotel Development Co., Ltd. opened.
This is the first foreign-related joint venture tourist hotel in Beijing, adopting the American Holiday Inn management method.
The construction area is 10,000 square meters, the investment is as high as 20 million US dollars, but the construction period only took two years.
Speaking of this, some people may be curious. This seems to have no direct relationship with Hong Yanwu?
No, it really does matter, and it is more important to Hong Yanwu than the house and the phone.
Don’t forget, this guy is different from ordinary people.
For him, the significance of this incident is not only that he has a new place and opportunity to sell foreign exchange certificates.
More importantly, he has a place where he can come and go at will, consume with peace of mind, relax and enjoy.
Isn’t it a pain to just have money and have nowhere to spend it?
In fact, Hong Yanwu in his previous life liked the view of the courtyard between the two main buildings of the Jianguo Hotel.
Because there is a winding stream flowing there. The stream flows, turns, bounces, and sways in ever-changing ways.
There is also a gurgling spring in the middle, which is extremely natural and wild.
What is even more fascinating is that some of the guest room buildings have small terraces protruding from the side adjacent to the creek.
You can imagine how carefree the residents feel when they sit on the small terrace, look at the greenery, listen to the gurgling water, sip a pot of fragrant tea, or clink glasses to drink.
Needless to say, in this hot summer, Hong Yanwu can rent a room here as Angelo and enjoy the long-awaited beautiful scenery and air-conditioning.
In fact, we don’t have to wait until summer, it’s May Day in a few days.
Hong Yanwu asked this young man to come forward and reserve seats for ten people at the "Jestine Western Restaurant" on the first floor of the "Jianguo Hotel".
He sincerely invites his whole family and his cousin Shou Jingfang to celebrate the festival together.
It should be said that this meal was no less joyful than the meal of boiled mutton that the Hong family had at the "Ethnic Restaurant" after they had just received the repayment from Chase Bank.
Because here, through the facade glass wall in the restaurant, you can directly enjoy the beautiful scenery in the courtyard.
And it has to be said that in the next few decades, in the central area of the capital, only two foreign-related hotels, "Jianguo Hotel" and "Shangri-La", will be able to enjoy similar enjoyment to the "Flower City" Garden Restaurant.
However, "Jianguo Hotel" is completely different from the "Flower City" borrowed scenery layout and regular private garden, compared with the royal style of "Shangri-La".
The combination of scenery and architecture here is ingenious and subtle. You have me in you, and you have me in you, which takes the word "hidden" to its extreme.
Outside the walls, or even inside the lobby, one would never expect that there is a unique cave inside.
Then this kind of elegant scenery, which is quite similar to "picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence and seeing the Nanshan Mountain leisurely", must be in line with the aesthetic taste of Hong Lucheng, his wife and Shou Jingfang.
So when several elders walked into the restaurant, they were all extremely surprised.
Shou Jingfang even claimed that the four words "beautiful and delicious" can be applied here, and it is quite appropriate.
Also, despite the fact that there are only a few people in the restaurant, the chef's skills are so-so and unsatisfactory according to Hong Yanwu.
But eating Western food is a novel scene that most of the Hong family children have never been exposed to.
Coupled with shiny candlesticks, knives and forks, white tablecloths, fragrant flowers, and comfortable sofas and chairs.
Young people also feel a sense of refreshing excitement here.
During the meal, although they were not used to the exotic dishes such as cream of mushroom soup, foie gras with bread, fruit and vegetable salad, grilled lamb chops with asparagus, and baked apples with vanilla ice cream.
But he was waving knives and forks with great enthusiasm, and everyone was laughing and laughing.
In this case, the children of the Hong family also heard past events that the previous generation rarely revealed.
First, Shou Jingfang told everyone about his and Hong Lucheng’s first experience of eating "Qishi Lin" in Jinmen when they were young.
It was said that there were snowflakes in the winter, so the two brothers made a rickshaw and rushed there.
Because I don’t understand German, I spent six dollars and only ordered six customers of “Germany” with different flavors... which is ice cream.
Because at that time, this thing was placed in a butterfly-shaped champagne glass, and there was always a small German flag, so he called it accordingly.
This thing definitely cannot be returned.
Well, the two of them ended up ordering two cups of hot coffee.
It was bitter, sweet, hot, cold, all swallowed with your nose pinched...
This old story made everyone laugh so hard that they couldn't help but laugh.
Because no one expected that the embarrassments their previous generation encountered when they were young would be so cute and interesting.
Following this, Hong Lucheng and Wang Yunlin also aroused their interest in conversation, and they reminisced about the Western food in old Beijing with Shou Jingfang.
According to what they said in their chat, in the past, foreigners’ foreign food in Beijing was not called Western food, but “Fancai”.
The Western restaurant is not called a Western restaurant, but a Fancai restaurant.
What is more interesting is that there was a "Gishlin" in the capital that opened in the early 1940s. It was opened by the driver of the Northeast warlord Bao Wenyue.
In fact, it has nothing to do with "Qi Shilin" and is purely a matter of popularity.
But many people in the capital mistakenly thought it was "Qi Shilin". As a result, this fake one made a lot of money.
They also said that except for the "Xishen Association" in Dongjiaomin Lane in Beijing, the other well-known Western restaurants are improved "Chinese Western food."
This is true for everything from "Liuguo Hotel" and "Jingcheng Hotel" to "Jie Ying" and "Er Miao Tang" of the citizen class.
Therefore, the names of dishes in these restaurants are named British, French, Russian, and German. Most of them are unreliable, or even completely fabricated.
For example, the British like to eat potato chips and fried fish, so all fried foods dipped in bread crumbs are called British.
Germans love to eat pork knuckles most, and as long as they are pork knuckles, they are all German style.
The French like all kinds of sauces, and our Chinese invented a homemade sauce that is red and green, sweet and sour, and uses tomato paste, diced carrots, diced mushrooms, peas and raisins as the main ingredients.
As long as the sauce is poured on the food, it can be called French.
The only thing that’s really not too outrageous is Russian food.
An important reason for this is that since the early 1920s, a considerable number of former Tsarist Russian aristocrats have entered major cities in our country due to the turmoil in the country, and they are called "White Russians".
In order to make a living, they opened Russian-style restaurants in these cities or worked as chefs in Western restaurants run by Chinese people, thereby introducing authentic Russian cuisine into the country.
So during the Republic of China, many families who were financially capable would make the more authentic "borscht". This is the most representative Russian dish that is rich and frugal.
Like the older generation, the concept of "salad" has always been that it must have potatoes and mayonnaise, also because of the influence of Russian cuisine.
On the other hand, the salad on the table today does not have potatoes and is only made with olive oil and apple cider vinegar. This selection of ingredients is in line with the tastes of Western European countries and is relatively more authentic...
In this way, this meal not only increased the knowledge and knowledge of the Hong family's children, but also became a happy time that they will always keep in their memories.
Even Hong Yanzheng didn't get angry or ruin the scenery. Anyway, he had already reported the assets of his third child to his parents, and there is a saying that goes well, if you don't get it, you won't get it for free!
He knew very well that even if he didn't eat, the "thief from home" wouldn't be able to save money.
It's better to just eat and enjoy it, so as not to waste the good stuff in vain.
Don't be afraid if you are angry. If you continue to play "monkey" with that kid on the phone in the future, it will be over.
