Li Weidong received 82 yuan for his first salary after working for work, including a basic salary of 55 yuan and a bonus of 27 yuan.

Eight pieces of "Great Unity" were handed over to her mother, Zhou Yunxiu. Zhou Yunxiu's face was so happy that she took out two and put them into Li Weidong's hands, and said, "Weidong, you are also a cadre now. There must be some socializing and entertainment, and bring some pocket money with you."

Li Weidong put the 20 yuan in his pocket, thinking to himself, 20 yuan a month's pocket money, this is the second generation of rich in 1984.

Zhou Yunxiu went on to say: "I will deposit the rest of the money in the bank tomorrow, and keep it for you to marry your wife. Even if you save fifty yuan a month, you can save enough for a year's effort." ' too."

It is the highest wealth that ordinary people can have in that era. If anyone's family is equipped with these three turns and one sound, it is equivalent to running into a well-off society ahead of time and realizing the four modern lives.

Three turns refer to bicycles, watches and sewing machines, while one snap refers to radios.

In the early 1980s, three turns and one sound was also an important criterion for most urban women to choose a mate, which is equivalent to having a car and a house today. It can be said that if you collect these four pieces, you will be able to summon a wife.

I just listened to Zhou Yunxiu's nagging: "The bicycle must be of the Phoenix brand, and the watch must also be of the Shanghai brand. The two together cost about 250 yuan. As for the sewing machine, the plum brand is also good, and it is better than the panda brand. It’s cheap. Let’s just buy Red Star’s radio. I liked one a few days ago. It costs 98 yuan for two speakers, which adds up to…”

"Mom, don't make a fool of yourself. I'm only sixteen years old this year. When I get married, I'm afraid it will be out of fashion." Li Weidong said with a smile.

"If it's not popular, what is it?" Zhou Yunxiu asked subconsciously.

"Color TV, refrigerator, washing machine, and tape recorder!" Li Weidong replied with a smile.

"Don't talk nonsense, how can we ordinary people afford such good things." Zhou Yunxiu said.

For ordinary people at that time, using "three turns and one sound" was considered to be a well-off. How could they dare to expect household appliances such as color TVs and refrigerators.

However, by the end of the 1980s, the "three turns and one sound" had been replaced by the "new four major items".

The new four are televisions, refrigerators, washing machines and tape recorders. At that time, the young man had long, fluttering hair like Fei Xiang, turned on the tape recorder, and sang "A Fire in Winter" with two words: fashionable!

...

During dinner, younger brother Li Weimin tried every means to ask for pocket money, but Zhou Yunxiu refused. For a scumbag, getting pocket money is indeed an international problem.

In the end, Li Weidong took out two cents and secretly gave it to his younger brother, the scumbag. Li Weimin took the money and ran out happily, not knowing where he went crazy.

Li Weidong sat by the radio and listened to a piece of Peking Opera with his father.

"Crossing the sky through the forest and the sea..."

The radio is playing "Take Tiger Mountain by Wisdom" today.

While Li Weidong was waiting for the episode of "The Heavenly King Covering the Earth Tiger and the Pagoda Town River Demon", he couldn't help but remember the "If You Are the One" that Cui Dashan made during lunch.

In the previous life, Li Weidong's love life was not smooth.

When Li Weidong first started working, state-owned enterprises were very popular, and employees of state-owned enterprises did not worry about finding a partner, but at that time Li Weidong was too young to be married.

A few years later, when Li Weidong reached the marriageable age, he happened to encounter the large-scale bankruptcy of state-owned enterprises in the early 1990s. Li Weidong himself became a laid-off worker, and he talked about a girlfriend. After all, no one wants to marry one. Laid-off workers.

After that, Li Weidong went to RB as a trainee, although he made some money,

But when he returned to China, he was already a young man. At the critical time, Li Weidong didn't have a formal job, and an older unemployed young man obviously couldn't find a partner.

Later, Li Weidong started a business. The days of starting a business were very difficult, and he had no time to worry about personal problems. When he succeeded in his career more than ten years later, he was already a middle-aged greasy uncle in his forties.

Fortunately, Li Weidong at that time was a rich middle-aged and greasy uncle. For the sake of money, Li Weidong would have no shortage of young and beautiful girls around him, and he was willing to communicate with him in simple terms.

In the end, Li Weidong was a beast once and married a wife twenty years younger than him. The wife went entirely for Li Weidong's money, while Li Weidong valued the other party's beautiful body. There is no love in this marriage, it is more like a business.

Perhaps this is the pain of the rich, and ordinary people have no chance to experience it.

"If I continue to stay in the transportation company, I may be the same as in my previous life, almost become an old bachelor, and finally marry a beautiful body. Well, maybe for many men, that is the ultimate dream! Hey, men are really vulgar !" Li Weidong showed a look of contempt.

...

In the blink of an eye, on New Year's Day in 1985, Qinghe Transportation Company also held its annual staff meeting.

In this meeting, in addition to the usual content, there is another important thing, that is, the new family building of the company will be completed soon.

In the big cities, as early as the 1950s and 1960s, one after another of tubular buildings were built to solve the housing problem of workers. In a small city, buildings are rare.

After all, it is the era of planned economy, and building a building is quite troublesome. It is necessary to apply to each supervisory unit layer by layer, and then approve it layer by layer, so that the cement, masonry and other materials used in the building can be obtained from the plan.

After the reform and opening up, materials have become increasingly abundant, and it has become easier to build family buildings in small and medium-sized cities. Enterprises and institutions have begun to build their own family buildings.

At that time, you only needed to go to the family area of ​​the unit for a walk to see if the family building was built in style, and you would know whether the benefit of the unit was good or not.

If it is a low-efficiency enterprise, it will definitely not be able to build a family building; an enterprise with average efficiency will also build a relatively average family building, each of which is 50 to 60 square meters.

For companies with good benefits, the family building will be built in a grand style. For example, the monopoly state-owned enterprises such as electricity and oil can even reach 80 square meters in area, and the family area will have its own boiler. There is heating in winter, and it is supplied regularly every day. There is no need to go to the public bath for hot water and bathing.

The Qinghe Transportation Company is about to complete two family buildings, four floors high. Each building has three units. The two buildings have a total of 48 households, each with an area of ​​about 60 square meters. .

Dividing houses has always been a big deal. For enterprises and institutions, each time dividing houses is a bloody war. The transportation company has thousands of employees, so 48 suites are definitely not enough. Fortunately, this is only the first phase. The eight family buildings in the second phase are now under construction and are expected to be completed next year.

According to the practice of state-owned enterprise allocation, the 9 people in the leadership team of the transportation company must be able to have a new house for each household. The remaining 39 houses will be allocated to the middle-level cadres of the company according to seniority. Those who cannot be divided can only wait for the next batch.

The leader talked about the completion of the two family buildings on the rostrum, but Li Weidong, who was sitting below, made a small calculation in his heart:

"I have to find a way to get one of these 48 houses!"
