Volume 1 Chapter 0064 The Bad Man
At the end of October, Nan Yi received another telegram, this time with more words.
"Jin Zhice, extremely good, correct! Sun, smooth!"
Translated into easy to understand meaning:
Liu Zhen has taken an IQ test and the result is very ideal. Her IQ is very high. She studies very hard in Yinguo and her grades are very good. Her thinking has not changed and she is still the same as before.
Everything went smoothly with Nan Ruoyin's training, and no accidents occurred.
After reading the telegram, Nan Yi felt a little secretly happy in his heart, then he took out the letter paper and Hero pen and started writing the letter.
My sister:
You have been studying abroad for more than a year. Knowing that you are busy with your studies, I have not written to you to bother you much.
I am very happy to hear that everything is going well for you.
Although our national treasury is not abundant, we have spared no effort in sending you to study abroad in the hope that you will return with academic success and serve the motherland.
Even though the Qing Dynasty was corrupt and like hell, the children still returned from school. You should follow the example of their predecessors.
Although I have not seen the extravagance of the American empire, I have heard of it. I hope you will not be dazzled.
…
Looking forward to returning!
Brother Nan Yi, writing this in the afternoon of November 2, 1979.
Fold the letter paper, put it into the envelope, seal it, and you don't need to put a stamp on it. Just take it to the post office to get it stamped.
Otherwise, the postage for an international letter ranges from 60 cents to more than one dollar, and the envelope has to be filled with stamps that cost eight cents each.
Just as he put the letter into his inner pocket, someone patted Nan Yi on the shoulder.
"What are you doing, Nan Yi?"
"I am thinking of the high-flying Nanyan. Comrade Xu Qian, thank you, thank you for coming back to build the motherland. On behalf of... forget it, I can only represent myself. I salute you and the thousands of overseas Chinese who have returned to the country."
"Okay, Nan Yi, I went to watch "Overseas Children" secretly. Is it good?"
"I haven't seen it. I just heard these few sentences from others. I just know that this movie praises people like you. Wow, it's incredible that you are praised in the movie. Sigh, I wonder when there will be a movie praising us peasants."
"Stop being nice, there aren't enough movies praising farmers." Xu Qian glared at Nan Yi and said, "The cinema is showing Look at This Family. When will you invite me to watch it?"
"Comrade, you are young, and this is a great time to do revolutionary work. Your bourgeois and corrupt ideas are unacceptable. You must be vigilant and not make revisionist mistakes."
"Just tell me whether you're going or not, don't make it a big deal."
"Hahaha." Nan Yi laughed heartily and said, "I can treat you, but you have to treat me to a meal."
"Sure, what do you want to eat?"
"Quanjude, a roast duck starts at 8 yuan, I've never been willing to go there to eat it, how about you take me there to see it."
"Nan Yi, you are so nice. You treat me to noodles with soybean paste, but when it's my turn, you treat me to expensive roast duck?" Xu Qian said with a smile and annoyance.
"Forget it, I won't tease you anymore. Quanjude is too expensive. Let's go to Bianyifang. The taste is similar and the price is much cheaper."
"Humph, they are all roast ducks, how can they be so cheap?"
Humph, Xu Qian was still generous. Nan Yi took Xu Qian to the Capital Cinema to watch a half-price screening of "Look at This Family". She immediately took Nan Yi to Quanjude.
At Nanyi, Xu Qian asked the waiter if she could get half price with her student ID, but was met with a cold stare. Then she ordered a large table of food, including roast duck, mushu pork, soft-fried prawns, and mushrooms and bamboo shoots. She also ordered six taels of rice, which was three cents an ounce.
One table, one young worker works for free for a month.
"The rich are feasting and drinking, while the poor are freezing to death on the streets. Miss Xu, I will feel very uneasy after eating this meal."
" What do you want?"
"Allow me to pack two roast ducks to take back to calm my nerves."
"Pah, you really know how to climb up the pole." Xu Qian complained, and then said: "Have you seen "The Caravan"? "
"No, did you see it?"
Nan Yi thought about it for a while, then asked back.
The reason why he had to think about it was because the content of the movie "Caravan" was very simple. The core was that a rich girl did not want to marry a rich boy of the same social status, but instead fell in love with a poor boy.
It tells a very cliché love story between a rich girl and a poor boy.
Nan Yi was worried that Xu Qian had some hidden meaning!
"I've seen it. It's very exciting. You should go and see it someday." Xu Qian stared at Nan Yi's face with burning eyes, and there was a hint of ambiguity in her tone of voice.
In this situation, if it were an Indian movie, this should be a dancing scene. After the dance, the plot would take a qualitative leap and the male and female protagonists would also make eye contact.
"Oh, let's talk about it later."
Nan Yi’s response made Xu Qian a little disappointed, but she didn’t know what she was disappointed about.
Maybe, it’s because of Nan Yi’s indifferent attitude.
A meal could not bring about a radical change in the relationship between a man and a woman. Afterwards, Nan Yi and Xu Qian continued to maintain a simple ambiguity.
Nan Yi's mind has always been concerned about his layout. It is not difficult at all for Far East Trade to develop its business.
The country is worried about foreign exchange, and companies that can bring in foreign exchange will definitely be welcomed. Not to mention tinkering with handicrafts, antiques in state-owned cultural relics stores are open for sale.
"What do you do?"
"I work for antiques with US dollars."
"Ah, sir, please come in."
Although this conversation is a bit playful, it is also a very intuitive explanation of the current domestic desire for foreign exchange.
Let's put it this way, at this time, some small places are looking for families with overseas connections. If your family has overseas connections, someone will come to your door to express their condolences and kindly persuade you to ask your overseas relatives to send you money.
Don't worry, no one will covet your money.
However, what you get in your hands will definitely not be foreign exchange.
Also for the purpose of earning foreign exchange, many products are sold abroad at a loss, and the loss is in RMB but the profit is in foreign exchange.
There is no way, we are really short of foreign exchange.
In order to speed up the pace of reform, many factories need to improve their production processes and introduce more advanced equipment, all of which require foreign exchange.
It is not difficult to obtain the agency rights for Panasonic, but it is extremely difficult to obtain the import approval.
Even when the Huo family was building a hotel in Guangzhou , they had to go to a dozen departments to get a long string of red stamps if they wanted to import anything.
If he hadn't been so ruthless, he would have just set the opening date and sent out the invitations to the people in Taiwan and Austria first, and there would have been a lot of formalities to go through.
Nan Yi wants to import color TVs, but it’s better to give up. Even if it doesn’t use foreign exchange, it’s impossible to pay with RMB.
Water leak?
Nan Yi would definitely not do it, even though it would cost billions.
But this kind of hot money, let alone hundreds of millions, even if it is tens of billions, should be missed.
It was mid-November when a Hong Kong coward came to Beijing to find Nan Yi.
They met at Fang Mengyin's courtyard.
"Hello, Ms. Fang. Welcome to invest in the mainland. I welcome you on my own behalf."
"I entrusted the Siheyuan to you, but you've never been here?"
"How is that possible? I come here often."
"Nonsense, how come the chicken claws are still on the tree? You didn't pick them off?"
"Oh my god, jujubes don't taste good, and no one would buy them if I sold them, so I'm too lazy to pick them."
"Chicken Claw Company."
"Okay, Chicken Claw Lian is Chicken Claw Lian, you can call it whatever you like."
"Chicken claw vine is a good thing. It is a diuretic and can detoxify alcohol. It is also very effective in sobering up." Fang Mengyin looked up at the crown of the chicken claw vine, full of nostalgia.
This tree was planted by her herself when she was a child, and it is a memory of her childhood.
After a long while, she asked Nan Yi, "Color TV, what are you going to do?"
