Since 1983

In February, the flavor of the New Year in Beijing is getting stronger and stronger.

The Spring Festival in this era is a very happy event. Only in these few days can children get new clothes, adults can also relax, and the whole family gathers to have a good meal.

It’s good to say, but it’s really nothing. The food in the 1980s was still very particular about the season, and you can eat whatever you have. Unlike later, you can eat watermelon, strawberries and persimmons in winter.

Chen Xiaoxu and Zhang Li had just finished shopping, holding a paper bag in their hands, which contained a few big candies.

The scientific name is Stove Candy, which is supplied to Lord Stove on the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, but it is actually eaten by people. Made from yellow rice and malt, it is very sticky. The long one is called Kanto sugar, which is big sugar, and the oblate one is called Tanggua.

This big candy is really expensive, a few sticks cost one yuan.

Chen Xiaoxu was wearing a big cotton-padded jacket with flowers and gloves, and was still shivering from the cold, I bought it at home last year, and it cost only ten cents a piece. Hey, do you eat it over there?

We don't call it big sugar, we call it sesame sugar. They are all in large pieces. When we buy them, we use a chisel to knock them off.

Zhang Li is wearing a military overcoat and a Lei (anti-harmony) front hat, with the ears of the hat turned up on the left and right, and she has no image at all.

Seeing that Chen Xiaoxu was too cold, she took off her hat and put it on her younger sister's head, Look at you, a northerner is more afraid of the cold than me, and he is still in poor health. Usually, if you are told to run, you will be lazy.

How tiring it is to run, I'm most afraid of being tired.

Chen Xiaoxu felt his head sink, and the heat was trapped inside, he couldn't help laughing and said: It's really Sister Bao, it's the best for me.

Don't be sweet, wait until he comes back to see if you can run, and then I won't help you talk.

Don't use him to pressure me, I'm not afraid of him.

Yo!

snort!

They both wrinkled their noses at the same time.

These days, the area beyond the second ring road of the capital is called a wild land, not to mention this land boundary, which is almost in the suburbs. They walked for a long time before they saw a dilapidated tube building, which was the crew of A Dream of Red Mansions.

They went to the south of the Yangtze River in September last year and took a lot of exterior scenes. The main locations were the ancient gardens in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, as well as the Dianshan Lake Scenic Area in the magic capital.

This scenic spot started construction in 1980, and it was also modeled after the Grand View Garden. It was completed in 1988 and was renamed the Magic City Grand View Garden in 1991. Before the construction of the Grand View Garden in Beijing, it undertook quite a lot of filming work.

The crew had been running outside for half a year, and just returned to Beijing, where they rented a basketball court in the Xiangshan Retirement Center and set up a studio to shoot indoor scenes, at an annual cost of 90,000 yuan.

Funds were already tight, and I couldn't afford to live in a hostel or hotel, so Ren Dahui found such a tube building through his relationship.

Four or five people share a room, one toilet for men and one toilet for women. In winter, when the north wind blows, the hooting sounds like ghosts. He relies on small coal stoves for heating, one for each house. Every day when there is a show, they get up early in the morning and follow the car to the studio.

Let me talk about the background here. Since the reform and opening up, the country has experienced inflation many times, and 1985 was one.

The inflation rate is 8.8%, and prices have increased. The most powerful one was in 1994, when prices rose as high as 21.7%.

The reasons are, firstly, the fiscal deficit, secondly, large sums of investment are needed in all aspects, and thirdly, the income of ordinary people has increased. The easiest way is to print money.

So don't look at the 1980s, if you compare the price of 1980 with the price of 1989, there are completely two worlds.

But they said that Chen Xiaoxu and Zhang Li had returned to Tongzilou, just in time for the meeting in the afternoon. There are more than 100 people in the production team now, and there is no room at all, so they just spread the word from room to room.

We have a holiday in a few days, and we start work on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year. Those who have plays will come back first, and those who have no plays can stay for a few more days. Keep the train tickets, and the crew will be reimbursed as usual.

Ren Dahui stood in the room and specifically called the roll, Zhang Li, the first stage after the new year is all about you. Although you have been with the group for half a year, you don't feel that you have improved much. Take this time to think about it.

This is Mr. Zhou Ruchang's phone number, please ask for advice if you don't understand anything. Wang Fulin also handed over a card.

Don't worry, I will find the status as soon as possible.

After the two left, Zhang Li pursed her lips, and then looked at the shooting schedule.

On the sixth day of the lunar new year, we have our own play, but there are only seven or eight days left before the Chinese New Year. Her family is in Bashu, so she won't be able to stay for long including the train ride time.

What's more, I really don't understand the role of Baochai.

Zhang Li, it's time to eat!

Chen Xiaoxu suddenly pushed the door open and came in, seeing her in a daze, asked, What's wrong with you?

I'm thinking about whether to go home during the Spring Festival.

Of course I have to go back. During the Spring Festival, I must be with my family.

But my task is too heavy now...

She thought about it for a while, and said, I'll call my mother in a while and say I won't go back.

Can your parents agree? Chen Xiaoxu felt incredible.

If I make it clear to them, they should understand me.

Zhang Li showed a very independent side and made a decision quickly.

After hearing this, Chen Xiaoxu became entangled, Everyone left during the Chinese New Year, and you are the only one left...Well, I want to accompany you, but there is something I need to go back to solve...

She is a family lover and likes to be with her parents. She hesitated and said, Then I, I will come back to accompany you on the fourth day of junior high school.

Oh, no need, you stay with your uncle and aunt well, I'm fine by myself.

It's okay, it's settled.

………………

Put it this way, put it this way, against the wall, yes!

You don't need to handle those with care, they are fake flowers, just hang them on the window!

Oh, be careful, that glass is real.

In the messy house, the Xu family moved tables and chairs, hung flowers and wiped the glass, and were busy decorating the restaurant.

For more than a month, Xu Fei has been rushing to open the shop, and found two bungalows, the location is not bad, the outer room is more spacious, just for the table, and the inner room is smaller, just for the back kitchen.

Due to limited conditions, it is impossible to completely follow the style of later generations, but try to be fresh and new.

Entering the door is a curved ruler-shaped counter, the back is against the wall, and several rows of shelves are nailed to the wall for placing drinks. On the other side are five tables with menus and small bowls of sauce, vinegar and chili.

There is a stove in the center of the room, the stove tube is tall, and it turns to the outside of the window. The walls are also freshly painted, all white on the ground, and the smell is removed.

The kitchen inside has a stove, one large and one small.

These days, there are few food resources and few varieties. If you sell everything, it will be a headache to buy. The simpler the business scope, the better. Xu Fei hesitated for a long time between dumplings and wontons, and finally chose wontons.

This thing is easy to make, with simple ingredients, hot soup with water in winter, and some cold noodles in summer, it is very suitable for starting.

Half a year's rent, decoration, labor, really did not exceed 1,000 yuan. Damn it, Xu Fei has all kinds of lemons, and he opened a wonton shop with a thousand dollars, what the hell is going on! ! !

A signboard has been hung on the door, covered with a red cloth. Looking at the Chinese New Year, everything is ready, just waiting for the opening after the Spring Festival.

Zhang Guiqin was timid at first, but when she was really busy, she was more active than anyone else. A middle-aged dancer, with no worries about food and clothing, a husband who loves others, and a son who strives for success, has nothing to think about except holding his grandson.

This kind of person is easy to be boring, especially if he can't get on the stage, he will gradually lose his temper.

Now, with a new thought all of a sudden, the whole person seemed to come to life, taking care of everything, and even personally named the store name, which was written by Shan Tianfang.

Originally wanted to call it Jixiang Wonton, but was stopped decisively by Xu Fei. He said some difficult words, such as infringement, report, 404, etc., which caused the parents to laugh, and the inside and outside of the store were full of happy atmosphere.

Later, Xu Fei contributed one, catchy and impressive.

Xilaile Wonton Shop.
