Rebirth 79, starting from making my ex-wife regret

"Look at my brain, Wenxiu, are you hungry now? If you can still hold on, I'll take you somewhere first."

Halfway through the ride, Fang Lin remembered that he had forgotten to bring the test paper.

"I'm not hungry yet, brother-in-law, where are we going?"

Lu Wenxiu asked curiously.

"The Star-Spangled Embassy."

"embassy!!!"

Lu Wenxiu said in shock: "You...you know the staff of the embassy?"

"To be precise, it's the embassy driver."

Seeing that Lu Wenxiu could still hold on, Fang Lin pedaled hard and rode towards the alley diagonally opposite.

Last year, a special trading "currency" emerged.

As the number of foreigners entering Xiaguo increases day by day, a series of issues regarding consumption arise.

Even into the eighties.

There are still shortages of various materials in the Xiaguo market.

Foreigners can only go to designated foreign guest stores and friendship stores for shopping, and all the goods sold there are imported.

This is equivalent to allowing foreigners to spend US dollars to buy ordinary goods that are common in their own country.

The price is much higher than in our country.

I want to buy some interesting Xiaguo specialty products.

Sorry, it's difficult.

Because foreign currency circulation is prohibited in the country.

Comprehensive various issues.

A foreign exchange certificate equivalent to the Xia national currency came into being.

Foreign exchange coupons can not only be exchanged back into US dollars, but also have dual shopping attributes.

It can be used to purchase imported goods of Friendship Commodities, and can also be used for consumption in foreign-related hotels and high-end hotels.

You can also shop at craft shops and other places that only accept Xiaguo currency.

In this way, foreigners have three options for leaving Xia State.

Keep the remaining foreign exchange coupons and use them next time you come to Xia Country, or exchange them back into US dollars.

Or you can buy all kinds of hard currency and take it away.

Such as gold, jewelry, and jade.

all in all.

The current status of foreign exchange certificates is even more noble than that of the US dollar.

"Brother-in-law, how do you know the embassy driver?"

Lu Wenxiu's face was full of disbelief.

"That's how we met."

Fang Lin didn't go into details. After explaining how they met, he would inevitably bring up the matter of Jiang Dahu's family.

trouble.

Seeing Fang Lin looking around and talking about other things, Lu Wenxiu's eyes showed a strange light.

I rode for several kilometers.

Fang Lin parked his bicycle two hundred meters away from the embassy.

"Wenxiu, you stay here and watch the car. I'll go and borrow foreign exchange certificates from George."

Leaving these words behind, Fang Lin walked forward.

The Xia State guards who were in charge of protecting the embassy still had expressionless poker faces.

Instead, the two Marines standing guard inside waved at Fang Lin.

Fang Lin smiled and pointed to a car parked in the embassy yard.

See this.

A Marine left his post and picked up the intercom nearby to call George.

"Lin Zi, how come you have time to come and see me today?"

Soon, George walked out from the small door reserved for embassy staff.

"I'll teach you a phrase from the Xia country: No one comes to see you unless they have something to ask for."

Fang Lin smiled and looked at Lu Wenxiu who was standing next to the bicycle.

"She is my fiancée's sister. I was supposed to treat her to a meal today, but when I went out I realized I forgot to bring my foreign exchange certificates, which are your travel currency."

George looked at Lu Wenxiu intently and exclaimed, “Another beautiful angel, Linzi, are you the Apollo of your country? Why are all the girls you know so beautiful?”

Fang Lin joked, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "In our country, handsome and attractive men are usually called Pan An. People who don't know me would think I was a rocket when they heard you call me Apollo."

"Hahaha, Linzi, every time I meet you it's always fun. How much travel currency do you need?"

George asked as he pulled out his wallet.

"Take the hundred first, and I'll pay you back at the car shop this weekend."

"OK."

George didn't waste any words and took out a foreign exchange certificate with a face value of 100 yuan and handed it to Fang Lin.

There are seven denominations of foreign exchange certificates, ranging from 100 yuan to 1 cents.

The quality of the paper is impeccable, even better than that of Xia Guo currency.

And behind each picture there is a landscape painting representing the famous scenic spots and historical sites of the Xia Kingdom.

"Hello, beautiful lady."

At this time, Lu Wenxiu came over.

George greeted me with a smile in English.

Lu Wenxiu seemed not to understand and stared at the foreign exchange coupons in Fang Lin's hand.

One hundred yuan, the largest denomination of foreign exchange coupons.

In addition to its monetary value.

At the same time, it is also a pass to enter various special places!

in the past.

If Chinese people want to shop at Friendship Stores, foreign-related restaurants, and hotels, in addition to foreign currency, they also need a letter of introduction issued by the foreign affairs department and their own passport.

In short, there are a lot of procedures.

If you're missing even a little bit of anything, they won't let you in.

Since the introduction of foreign exchange coupons, no matter whether you are a Chinese or a foreigner, as long as you have a coupon, no one can stop you from going anywhere.

"Wenxiu, George is greeting you."

Thinking that Lu Wenxiu couldn't understand foreign languages, Fang Lin helped translate.

"Hello, Mr. George."

Unexpectedly, Lu Wenxiu not only can speak foreign languages, but also has authentic pronunciation.

"Oh my God, beautiful lady, it turns out you can speak English. We can communicate directly from now on."

George is one of those foreigners who likes to show off.

He praised Lu Wenxiu for her beauty and said that if he was not already married, he would definitely pursue Lu Wenxiu.

Fang Lin rolled his eyes.

George tells this story to everyone he meets.

Lu Sirui has heard of it.

Wang Mochou, who had just arrived in Yanjing, was also praised by George.

Then, George invited Lu Wenxiu to have a barbecue in the suburbs on Sunday.

American Western BBQ.

Xu Liang and others prepared the stove, coal, and bamboo sticks.

George provided the seasoning and the meat.

"Okay, I'll definitely go then."

Lu Wenxiu was also a man who had seen the world, so he agreed gracefully.

"See you this weekend, beautiful lady."

Since George was still at work, he couldn't stay long.

"Brother-in-law, can you sell me the remaining foreign exchange certificates?"

Sitting back on the bicycle, Lu Wenxiu was still thinking about the foreign exchange coupons.

A bold idea came to my mind.

Exchange the difference.

Hearing this, Fang Lin turned around and glanced at Lu Wenxiu.

"Wenxiu, are you using it yourself, or are you trading it with someone?"

Hearing this, Lu Wenxiu said without any guilt: "Brother-in-law, do you also see the greater value of foreign exchange certificates?"

“Use foreign exchange coupons to buy imported goods from the Friendship Store and sell them to those in need at prices higher than the market price.”

"Or sell foreign exchange certificates with a face value of 100 yuan to people going abroad who need foreign currency at a price several times higher than the actual face value. This thing is bearer, and anyone can go to the bank to exchange it for US dollars."

With the emergence of foreign exchange coupons, the word "exchange" has a dual meaning.

In addition to referring to domestic enterprises exporting goods in exchange for foreign exchange funds needed for national development.

It also means going to the bank to exchange foreign currency through foreign exchange coupons.

Lu Wenxiu looked surprised and nodded vigorously.

The plan to make a fortune that I just came up with was actually already thought of by Fang Lin.

The domestic foreign exchange exchange rate this year is 1 US dollar to 1.8 Xia currency.

The black market price is 1:7.

The emergence of foreign exchange coupons allowed Lu Wenxiu to see the possibility of legally exchanging foreign currency.

It also gave Lu Wenxiu an idea of ​​a better way to make money.
