After leaving the courtyard house, Wang Xuewen went to the entrance of the alley to have breakfast at a public-private breakfast shop.

In this era, everything was cheap.

One cent was enough for a decent breakfast.

One cent could buy a bowl of beef noodles or a bowl of small dumplings.

If he only ate the cheap vegetable soup noodles, he could buy five bowls with one cent.

No matter how big his appetite was, he was still full.

Wang Xuewen was still growing, so he had a big appetite.

In addition, he had obtained the Azure Dragon Bloodline and strengthened his physique. His appetite had become even bigger.

Not to mention doubling it, there was definitely a 50% increase.

Wang Xuewen ate two bowls of beef noodles and bought two fried pancakes.

Only then was he 70% full.

Just like that, he only spent twenty-six cents.

Of course, they also needed food stamps.

In the future, these things would cost at least twenty-five yuan, and that was the price of goods in a small place.

If it was Beijing, a bowl of beef noodles would cost about 25 yuan!

When the cashier was paying, although the salesperson was a little surprised by Wang Xuewen's appetite, she was not too surprised.

Although Wang Xuewen's appetite was not small, it was not to an exaggerated extent.

In the north, there were many people with big appetites.

They were just surprised that Wang Xuewen, who looked quite thin and gentle, could actually eat so much.

However, as the saying goes, a young boy eats his father poor.

He had seen this kind of thing many times, so there was nothing to be surprised about.

According to his memory, Wang Xuewen walked along Beiyanhe Street to Wangfujing.

In this era, bicycles were huge.

It was not something that could be bought anywhere.

Some small department stores were often out of stock.

However, it was impossible for the Beijing Department Store to be empty.

If he couldn't buy it in the capital's department store, he definitely couldn't buy it anywhere else.

Wang Xuewen entered the department store. There were quite a lot of people there.

As one of the largest department stores in the capital, it naturally had the most customers.

There were many poor people these days, but there were also many rich people.

He went to the bicycle counter.

The salesperson was counting the bills given by the person in front of her.

After confirming that the money was correct, he gave the other party a receipt and the other party could go and get the car.

"Notice, do you still have flying pigeon bicycles?”Wang Xuewen asked.

"Do you have tickets?" The salesperson didn't even look up and asked with a dark face.

Everything in the department store belonged to the government, and these salespeople were also given a fixed salary.

Naturally, he didn't treat his guests well.

After all, no matter how much they sold, the money they received would not change.

With fewer people, they could still relax a little.

Of course, there were also salespeople with good attitudes, such as Zhang Binggui who sold candy, but they were only a minority.

"Yes." Wang Xuewen handed over the pigeon's bicycle ticket.

He didn't care about the salesperson's attitude.

He was only here to buy things, not to marry a salesperson.

Besides, everyone was like this. So what if he had an opinion?

It was useless to complain. He had an iron rice bowl.

Only then did the salesperson look up at Wang Xuewen.

However, when she saw his face, a rare smile appeared on her face.

Handsome people were always more popular than ugly people.

"There are still Flying Pigeon bicycles. Do you want to buy them?”The salesperson's voice was much friendlier.

" Yes, I'll buy one. How much is it?"

"One hundred and fifty-eight yuan."

"Alright, here you go."

Wang Xuewen put his hand into his pocket, pretending to take money from his pocket.

In fact, he took out sixteen Great Unity Cards from his storage ring and handed them to the salesperson.

The salesperson counted and confirmed that the money was correct.

She gave Wang Xuewen two yuan in change and gave him a receipt.

With this receipt, he could ride his bicycle to get the stamp.

A bicycle without a steel stamp would be confiscated if it was discovered.

After buying the bicycle, Wang Xuewen also bought some peanuts, melon seeds, and White Rabbit Creamy Candy.

Although he didn't really eat these snacks, it was almost the New Year after all. He had to prepare some food.

Moreover, the White Rabbit Creamy Candy was a luxury item.

Four catties cost him a large sum of money, which was half a month's salary for many people.

Wang Xuewen didn't care. He had money anyway.

With the White Rabbit Creamy Candy, it would be more convenient for him to hit a good-looking girl.

In this era, no girl could reject the White Rabbit Creamy Candy.

Just like how in the 21st century, no girl could reject milk tea.

After leaving the department store, Wang Xuewen first went to the office to put a license plate and stamp on the bicycle.

It also cost money to put a license plate and stamp on the bicycle.

He didn't know if it was because he was handsome, but the lady only charged him two yuan.

Wang Xuewen clearly saw that the uncle in front of him also had a Flying Pigeon brand bicycle, but he was charged a 10-yuan handling fee.

Indeed, good-looking people were popular everywhere.

With the license plate and stamp, he wouldn't have to worry about losing his bicycle in the future.

If it was really lost, the probability of being found was very high.

Or rather, because of the existence of the license plate and the steel seal, the theft of bicycles was much, much less.

He would have to pay taxes every year in the future.

It wasn't much, just two yuan.

Wang Xuewen rode his bicycle and strolled through the streets and alleys of Beijing, feeling the unique atmosphere of this era.

Industry had already begun to develop in this era, but compared to the later generations, it was still in its infancy.

The air pollution in Beijing was not that serious.

The sky was still blue, and there was no smog in the air.

This feeling was quite good.

They had lunch outside and strolled around until the afternoon. Wang Xuewen then rode his bicycle back.

At the corner of the alley, Wang Xuewen took out the peanuts, melon seeds, milk candy, and the pork that he had cut earlier.

He hung the things on the bicycle handle and rode back to the courtyard house.

In the end, at the entrance of the courtyard house, he bumped into Xu Damao, who was riding a bicycle back.

His car was filled with all kinds of agricultural products.

Dried mushrooms, onions, and shelled peanuts.

In the back seat of the car, there were two old hens.

He had returned from the countryside to play a movie!

Wang Xuewen saw Xu Damao, and Xu Damao naturally saw Wang Xuewen.

"Yo! Wang Xuewen, you bought a bicycle!" Xu Damao got out of the car and looked at Wang Xuewen's new car in surprise.

As a neighbor, he knew how frugal Wang Xuewen's father was.

He did not buy a bicycle at all when he was alive.

After his death, Wang Xuewen bought a bicycle.

Tsk tsk…

If that old fellow knew, he would probably be furious!

That's not right. You pamper this kid so much. Even if you knew, you probably wouldn't be angry.

Wang Tiezhu, that old fellow, and that old fellow in Liu Hai were two completely different extremes.

One beat the child to death, and the other spoiled the child to death.

"Yeah, I have to go to work tomorrow. It's more convenient to have a bicycle.”Wang Xuewen said casually.

He and Xu Damao were neighbors, and he did not want to fall out with him on the surface.

In any case, everyone would live their own lives and live the next ten years well.

"Xu Damao, you're making a lot of money by showing movies in the countryside.”Wang Xuewen looked at the things in Xu Damao's car jokingly.

With so many agricultural products, he did not know if Xu Damao could enter.

If he could, he could be Old Wang next door.

However, Wang Xuewen probably couldn't.

Xu Damao could say that those things were his fellow villagers thanking him. It was not easy to go all the way to the countryside to show movies to his fellow villagers.

It was a consolation gift for him.

Those village heads, township heads, and brigade leaders in the countryside would definitely not offend Xu Damao over such a small thing.

"That's ~! I'm the only projectionist in our factory! Every time he went to the countryside to play a movie for the villagers, it was very popular!”Xu Damao said proudly.
