Chapter 474: Shock, Finding Gifts

Dai Jing'an stood under the menu for a long time, and finally ordered vegetarian fried tofu, fried shredded potatoes, fried pork with chili, soy pork elbow, and braised meatball soup. Three meat and two vegetarian dishes made up four dishes and one soup.

After paying the money, Dai Jing'an sat back at the table with a sign and a smile on his face, and asked after explaining what he ordered.

"Comrade Han Chunhong, I ordered you a bottle of soda. Han Li, what do you think we two should drink?"

After listening to the dishes ordered by Dai Jing'an, Han Li made a rough estimate in his mind. Vegetarian dishes cost about 2 cents, meat dishes about 4 cents, and the small pork ribs in sauce cost more than 3 yuan. Plus soda drinks currently cost just over 5 yuan. , Xiaoliu, it seems that this kid has something, but he still needs to continue to test his bottom line.

"Drink something? But I only drink beer. Come on, come on, Brother An, have a cigarette first."

Halfway through Han Li's words, he took out the Chinese cigarettes he had bought on the way here from his pocket. The cigarette tickets were taken from Mr. Liu. He was originally asked to buy two packs of good cigarettes to manage relationships and deal with unnecessary situations on the way. It’s troublesome to use, because being able to open a three-span ticket and get a cigarette ticket of the same level as Zhonghua speaks volumes. In many cases, it is more useful than a letter of certification.

Here in Sijiucheng, just like in the Northeast, there is also a jingle for smoking.

"High-ranking cadres in the Great China, bureau chiefs smoke peonies, department-level daiqianmen, ordinary workers are Beihai, poor and lower-middle peasants smoke cigarettes."

In fact, the best 80-cent "Firework" brand cigarettes in Sijiu City are now available, but Han Li finally chose Huazi. First of all, the leaders did not smoke them, and later on, there were certain reasons for the discontinuation of Fireworks.

The reason why Han Li took out the Chinese cigarettes that he didn't even use in Yanqing was to create a kind of side pressure on Dai Jing'an.

Han Li took out a cigarette and gave Dai Jing'an a cigarette. He stood up and lit it with a match first for Dai Jing'an, and then for himself. The whole process was very smooth, giving people the feeling of a long-time smoker.

"This cigarette is still more comfortable to smoke than Huazi. My throat always feels uncomfortable the next day after smoking other cigarettes."

Han Li's move of handing Dai Jing'an a cigarette and lighting it made him feel a little flattered, and at the same time, his eyelids twitched rapidly.

The biggest leader he has ever seen is the director of the Yanjing Musical Instrument Factory where he works. However, although their director has a big front door in his pocket, he will only leave it under special circumstances. He usually only smokes the cheaper Evergrande.

Therefore, Dai Jing'an had only seen these two types of cigarettes, Fireworks and Zhonghua, in shop windows.

Dai Jing'an smoked this cigarette until it burned his hands and reluctantly threw it away, but then he stood up and said.

"This dish will probably have to wait for a while. I'll go get a few bottles of beer and we'll drink slowly."

As soon as Dai Jing'an left, Sister Han gently pulled Han Li's clothes and asked in a low voice.

"Brother, when did you learn to smoke? Why did you say that your throat felt uncomfortable the next day when you smoked other cigarettes?"

"Hey..., I only smoke cigarettes when socializing, and what I just said was intentional. I think whether it was Sanguizi or Zhonghua cigarettes today, it would leave a deep impression on him.

I plan to deepen my impression on him in other aspects later, so that even after we get married, if there is any dispute, he will have to weigh it.

After all, I have no plans to return to Sijiu City for development in the past two years. Some things will inevitably be beyond my reach. Moreover, the bones and hair on his body, including all the bones and hairs on his body, are not as good as one of your hairs, eldest sister, in my opinion, so It is still necessary to strike a shock in advance. "

"Little brother."

When Sister Han wanted to say something, Dai Jing'an had already come back carrying soda and a few bottles of beer, so she had no choice but to take it back because she was moved.

Not long after, the waiter called to serve the food. Before eating, Han Li picked up the soup spoon after the meatball soup was served, and flicked it gently with his fingers to attract Dai Jing'an's attention.

Han Li smiled at him and put the spoon in his hand. He pressed the spoon with his thumb and split it into two sections. He then grasped both sections in his hand and rubbed his fingers several times in order. Waiting for Han Li to spread the spoon When you open your palm, the spoon has turned into something almost like powder, and the largest particles are no larger than mung beans.

This scene left Sister Han and Dai Jing'an dumbfounded. Dai Jing'an's Adam's apple was still swallowing saliva.

Han Li blew the powder to the ground, threw the remaining particles on the table and said casually.

"Hey, my kung fu is still a bit lacking, otherwise it would all turn into powder. But brother Jing'an, just don't worry, I practice kung fu just for fitness. Under normal circumstances, I won't use it to beat people."

Dai Jing'an was not a fool. He quickly guessed Han Li's intention and smiled awkwardly beside him with a pale face.

But after the meal, whenever Han Li spoke a little louder or looked at Dai Jing'an, he smiled, but his eyes kept evading.

But Han Li still had no intention of letting him go, and said casually when the meal was coming to an end.

"Brother Jing'an, you must have internal indicators or connections when working in a musical instrument factory, right?"

"Most of the musical instruments in our factory are exported in exchange for foreign exchange, so this indicator is rarely available."

"Really? That's such a pity. I originally wanted to buy instruments such as accordion, erhu, suona, guzheng, and pipa to play."

"Have fun?"

"Yeah, I've been resting all year round and have nothing to do. I thought it's good to have many skills, so I wanted to learn a musical instrument to cultivate my sentiments. If I don't try every instrument, how can I know which one I have talent in? But I don't want to bother the leader with such a small matter, so I asked you. Since you don't have a quota, forget it."

"Haha. Learning a musical instrument is good, learning a musical instrument is good. Then I'll go back and ask my co-workers who has the corresponding quota. If there is, I must come."

"Haha. Then I'll trouble Brother Jing'an."

After dinner, Han Li took Sister Han away, and Dai Jing'an stood there and watched them disappear. Then he pushed his bicycle home. He was thinking about today's situation all the way.

When Dai Jing'an returned home, his mother came to greet him immediately.

"Son, how was the meal today? How much did it cost? What's the situation with Han Chunhong's educated youth brother?"

Dai Jing'an was already in a mess. Now he heard his mother talking about how much money he spent and belittling Han Chunhong's brother as an educated youth, and he was a little angry.

"Educated youth? Have you ever seen an educated youth driving a three-wheeled vehicle around all day? Have you ever seen an educated youth who only smokes Zhonghua cigarettes?"

"This, isn't this just because I care about you? You said that you have been fascinated by Han Chunhong since you met her, and later others said that you didn't meet several people. If she is like your uneducated sister-in-law, then Mom will have no good life in this life."

"Mom, I don't want to say more about my sister-in-law, but Chunhong is definitely not that kind of person..."

When Dai Jingan was halfway through his words, he thought of the scene of Han Li crushing the soup spoon, and his heart suddenly shuddered.

"Her family is not that kind of person either, the premise is not to make her angry, otherwise her brother can tear down our family alone."

"What's the situation?"

Hearing his mother ask this, Dai Jingan hesitated for a moment and told her about Han Li crushing the spoon into pieces with one hand.

After hearing this, Dai Jingan's mother was also frightened. Crushing the soup spoon with one hand, it's like crushing your own bones. Then she jumped up and said loudly

"Son, this marriage is not going to work. You'd better hurry up and look for other girls. Otherwise, you will have to give in to Han Chunhong in everything, or her brother will dare to break your legs."

"Mom, don't worry about it. I'm so old now. I know what to do and what not to do."

"You're going to piss me off to death. Don't cry out in pain when you get beaten in the future."

.

The next day, after his family went to work, Han Li was urged by the sisters to send Sankuanzi back.

However, Han Li did not go directly to Liu Lao. He wanted to buy some gifts for him, but he didn't care about ordinary gifts.

Han Li thought about it and drove directly to a place called Huoqiao near Longtan Lake. There is a flower, bird, fish and insect market here.

It is said that the scale here was already very large at that time, and many people who love to play in Sijiu City would gather here.

At the beginning, a group of people were frustrated by the special three years, and then it was banned once in the past few years.

However, as the situation has eased in the past two years, those who like to play with these things in Sijiu City have gathered here again.

Han Li came here this time to help Liu Lao find a parrot, mynah or other bird. Of course, he would also help if there was one suitable for his own use.

Because he didn't know what the situation was there, Han Li parked the three-span gun far away at the door of a factory, and distributed two guns to the comrades in the security department, asking them to help him keep an eye on it.

This market is in a small forest. After Han Li walked in, he first found many people carrying cages.

However, due to special circumstances and scarcity of materials, these cages did not have the good things described in books with carved flowers and birds. Most of them were cages woven by themselves with bamboo.

These people were playing with pigeons, and each cage contained three or four pigeons.

Among them, there was a man who looked more arrogant. The most people were watching in front of him. Han Li walked closer and listened to it.

It turned out that the pigeons in this man's cage were high-nosed tumors. These pigeons were foreign goods. It was said that they were the most popular varieties brought back by foreigners from abroad.

Although no one knew how this man had managed to keep it alive, seeing something like this in this era was enough to excite those who liked to play with pigeons.

Han Li just looked around, listened to the story told by the man, and left with a smile.

Although pigeons are good, and the men in Sijiu City like to raise them, they are not suitable to appear in Liu Lao's place.
