Chapter 27 The First Step: Choosing a Song

"When I bought it, it was 180, and I gave the ticket back, which is a nuclear pricing..."

"I don't have a ticket!" the young man said immediately, "I'll pay 170. If it's more expensive, I don't have money."

Qiu Huoming swallowed back the words, "If you want it, take it for 150."

He showed a look of struggle and hesitation on his face, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, deal."

The young man was about to pay when his companion next to him reminded him, "Do you have a receipt?"

Qiu Huoming immediately took out the intact certificate from his pocket and said, "Comrade, this is a legitimate transaction. Take a look."

The young man took it and took a look. "It was sold by the supply and marketing cooperative. Wait a minute, I'll give you the money."

He took out an oil-paper from his bag, opened it and found a bunch of ten-yuan-a-piece Big Unity notes inside.

After counting 17 of them, he felt uneasy and counted them again before handing them to Qiu Huoming.

Qiu Huoming carefully put the money into the lining pocket, buttoned it up, and then gave him the car and the voucher.

The young man felt the bike and immediately went to the side and started riding.

As they walked along the road, Gu Xiaoran said quietly, "You looked like a profiteer just now!"

Qiu Huoming led her across the street and defended himself, "I was just hesitating whether to lower the price a bit, but based on the psychology knowledge I've learned, if I lower the price at this time, he won't buy it..."

"why?"

"Because he started to worry whether it would be a problem if it was so low..."

"And you still say you're not a profiteer!"

"That profiteer invites you to dinner, would you still eat it?" Qiu Huoming glanced at her.

"Of course we have to eat it, and give back the people's hard-earned money!"

After entering the restaurant, which was crowded with people, Ding Yu stood up straight in the corner and waved his hand, "Huozi, here!"

"Where are the dishes?" Qiu Huoming sat down and asked casually.

"They say the food here is slow to serve, but you can't rush it. If you rush them, they'll get angry." Ding Yu muttered.

"Brother, have you sold the car?" Qiu Hongye thought of her aborted plan to learn to drive. The car was gone before she even got warm, and she still felt a little regretful.

"Sell it, and buy it back when I make money later."

"Yeah, I believe in you, brother."

From the kitchen behind him, a waiter in a white uniform came out carrying a plate.

Several pairs of eyes immediately looked up.

The eldest sister followed the waiters walking in the crowd. The dishes they were holding looked very tempting. She swallowed her saliva and her eyes became even more burning...

Ding Yu took out the simple menu and said, "I ordered stir-fried chicken with green peppers, whitebait and eggs, Mushu pork, sweet and sour fish slices, and 1 kilogram of rice. Do you want to add anything else?"

Qiu Huoming handed the menu to Gu Xiaoran, "Take a look, if you want to add anything else, you're welcome."

Gu Xiaoran didn't take the menu. "There are only four of us. There's enough food. Don't waste it."

Qiu Huoming glanced at the menu and calculated the prices in his mind: stir-fried chicken with green peppers 2 yuan, whitebait and eggs 1 yuan, mu shu pork 0.9 yuan, sweet and sour fish fillet 1.3 yuan, and rice 0.2 yuan, for a total of 5.4 yuan.

It is still within controllable range.

After waiting for a long time, the dishes were finally served. Putting aside the price, the portions were quite generous. Qiu Huoming ate the dishes and even finished three bowls of rice before he put down his chopsticks.

He glanced at Gu Xiaoran. She ate slowly and gracefully. After she finished her bowl of rice, she placed her chopsticks on the table and took out a handkerchief to lightly touch the corner of her lips.

This kind of posture cannot be achieved without several years of training.

Ding Yu and his elder sister were responsible for the cleanup and completed the liquidation movement.

What people lack most in their stomachs these days is oil and water. The dishes in state-owned restaurants are heavy in oil and sauce. After a meal, Qiu Huoming felt that his strength had come back, and he even had the illusion that he could uproot weeping willows.

After paying the bill, Qiu Huoming was left with only 179 yuan of his entire fortune.

My father has worked for so many years and only earns 48 yuan a month. My mother works in the factory and pays by the day, so she earns 35 yuan a month.

What Qiu Huoming had in his arms at the moment was definitely a huge sum of money.

He still owed Fang Jun's electronics store 480 yuan for blank tapes, and he had to spend the money wisely.

"Student Gu, can you take me to meet the workshop director of the printing factory someday?"

"If you're not in a hurry, go on Saturday afternoon. There's more time."

"Okay! When we get back to school, I'll write a few song titles for you. Can you help me see if you have any?"

"Yeah." Gu Xiaoran nodded, not thinking it was troublesome at all.

"I want to go too!" Ding Yu hummed.

Qiu Huoming stretched out his hand and hooked it on his shoulders. He always felt that he had become a little taller recently, and this height was just right for Ding Yu's shoulders to be extremely comfortable.

"Together, together." He said, rubbing his belly.

The four of them walked slowly along the street towards the school. Except for Gu Xiaoran, the other three were full.

When we arrived at school, Teacher Cheng came to the door and said that Qiu Huoming and Gu Xiaoran would not have to attend the afternoon classes because they had to attend a training camp.

The teacher of the training camp was Teacher Cheng. She handed the two people a material filled with Olympiad mathematics questions. The following question types remained the same, and they had to understand and grasp the material in a short period of time.

In addition to them, there is also a short male classmate named Sun Zili, who was registered by Class 1 and is also one of the candidates this time.

The activity room on the first floor of the teaching building became the venue for their training.

Qiu Huoming just unfolded the information and was about to take a look.

Gu Xiaoran poked him with a pen, "I learned some in Shenhai City before, but how come you know Olympiad mathematics?"

"There's a college student living next door to me, and he taught me." No one would believe the truth if I told them, and I might even be locked up in the Mid-Levels Mental Hospital.

"I see." Gu Xiaoran withdrew his gaze.

Sun Zili also chimed in: "My father is a math teacher at the county's No. 1 Middle School. I learned from him. I don't know much, but it just so happens that I have written the question on the teacher's paper."

No. 1 Middle School in the county is a key middle school in the county, and the teachers there are also very good.

"Gu Xiaoran, have you lived in Shenhai City before?" The prosperity of Shenhai City is completely different from that of Wucheng County. Qiu Huoming is a little confused as to why she would come to a small place like Wucheng County.

Gu Xiaoran was silent for a moment and suddenly said: "That's not my home."

Qiu Huoming suddenly understood what she meant. He looked at Gu Xiaoran's seemingly calm face and quickly changed the subject.

After the three of them talked for a while, they all felt a sense of mutual admiration. In addition, since they were representing the school to participate in the competition this time, it was necessary to build good relationships. They all picked out some nice words to say to each other, and the atmosphere on the scene was full of joy.

Teacher Cheng came in before the class bell rang. She had dark circles under her eyes, which were not covered even with the black-framed glasses. She had spent most of the night just doing the tutorial.

Today she has to use half the afternoon to finish presenting the entire document, and the task is heavy.

Fortunately, the three students were all very smart. Although Teacher Cheng was dry-mouthed after speaking, he was very satisfied in his heart.

During the break, Qiu Huoming handed a long playlist to Gu Xiaoran.

She unfolded it and looked through it.

1. Teresa Teng’s “By the Waterside”

Small Town Story

"how do you say"

"sweet"

"the moon represents my heart"

2. Tsai Chin "The Forgotten Time"

3. Sylvia Chang, Childhood

4. "Orchid Grass" by Liu Wenzheng

《Country Road》

"The Rain in March"

"be late"

5. Zheng Xulan’s Shepherd’s Song

6. Luo Dayou: Love Song 1980

7. Cheng Lin: "Mother's Kiss"

There are seventeen songs in total. After reading them, Gu Xiaoran looked at Qiu Huoming in surprise. Many of the songs here were transferred from the port city to the mainland market. How did Qiu Huoming, a teenager living in a county town, know about them?

She suppressed the doubts in her mind and sketched something with a pen.

"There are almost all songs with serial numbers 1, 3, 4, and 7. The Shepherd's Song is a movie episode. If you want to record it, you may have to record the original soundtrack. It will take a long time for the song to be officially released."

Qiu Huoming was overjoyed. He had originally planned to cast a wide net and did not expect to find all these songs. After all, a tape could only record 12 songs at most. These songs were the most popular songs of this era and there was no need to worry about sales.
