Chapter 16



Zhou Huiru needs to rest for a month after the operation.

Liu Meiyu doesn't have to go back to the army, so taking care of her is not a problem at all.

But Lu Changzheng had to go back to the capital. He didn't have much vacation time left, so he had to go back to the capital to see his father first, and then report to the new place of residence. Only after everything was arranged there could he come back to pick up Liu Meiyu to join the army.

The marriage certificate had to wait until Lu Changzheng returned from the army.

Shanghai Railway Station.

Lu Changzheng said goodbye to Liu Meiyu reluctantly.

"Meiyun, wait for me, I'll be back to pick you up soon."

"I know. You've said this several times." Liu Meiyu waved at him. If he didn't get on the train, it would have left.

The sound of the whistle was shrill. Lu Changzheng did not see any reluctance on Liu Meiyu's face, and he felt a little lost in his heart.

"Hurry up and get in the car. Go back and finish your work and come pick me up. We can meet earlier."

After listening to Liu Meiyu's words, Lu Changzheng felt that they made particular sense. The slight sense of disappointment in his heart quickly dissipated. He stopped hesitating, hugged her tightly, turned around and got on the train back to the capital.

Liu Meiyu didn't leave the station until the last carriage of the train disappeared from her sight.

After leaving the train station, I took a bus and traveled around Shanghai.

After Lu Changzheng left, Zhou Huiru also stayed at home. She had a lot of free time, so naturally she thought about how to make money and get tickets during this month.

She is not good at cooking and it takes a lot of time and effort.

To make clothes, not to mention whether she had a sewing machine or not, she only had one month. Even if she had three heads and six arms, she couldn't make more than a few pieces in a month.

Liu Meiyu, who had no idea at the moment, decided to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to take a look.

In the supply and marketing cooperative, Liu Meiyu carefully inspected every counter.

She is not good at buying cigarettes, cloth, food, matches, soap, groceries, watches, or hardware.

Seeing that she was just looking around but not buying anything, the salesperson had a very bad attitude, "What do you want to buy? You've been walking around for so long!"

"Let me take a look first." Liu Meiyu shamelessly continued to look at her own.

Just when she was about to buy a box of matches, a middle-aged man wearing glasses and a blue work suit came in and asked the salesperson, "Comrade, do you have a radio?"

The salesperson didn't even bother to raise his eyes and waved his hand: "No! It's sold out!"

The man left disappointed.

Liu Meiyun suddenly had an idea and asked the salesperson: "Hello, how much is the radio?"

The salesperson was already impatient with Liu Meiyun, so he glanced at her sideways and said in an unhappy tone: "Didn't you hear? It's sold out! No more!"

Liu Meiyun didn't argue with her and just continued to ask: "I know I've bought them all. I want to ask how much each one is so that I can go home to get the money and come back to buy them tomorrow."

The salesperson didn't believe what Liu Meiyu said at all.

How can someone who takes a long time to buy a box of matches and is reluctant to part with it spend more than a hundred dollars to buy a semiconductor radio?

However, in order to get rid of the customer as quickly as possible, the salesperson, although impatient, still replied: "We only have Peony brand radios here, 156 each, and you need an industrial coupon!"

"And there's no stock. Don't come tomorrow. The nearby supply and marketing cooperatives are out of stock until early next month!"

"Okay, I get it, thank you, and give me a box of matches."

After getting the answer she wanted, Liu Meiyu generously paid for a box of matches.

The salesperson rolled her eyes, and only when Liu Meiyun left the supply and marketing cooperative could she help but complain: "What's the point of being so pretty? You have no money but you still pretend to be so. You're not smart."

Liu Meiyu, who was "not very smart", went to several supply and marketing cooperatives in succession. After seeing that all the radios in the nearby supply and marketing cooperatives were sold out and the prices were not cheap, just as the salesperson said, she made a decision in her mind.

She knows how to assemble this kind of semiconductor radio!

She was taught by an old master she met when she was on business trips and visited factories to observe the machines.

The old teacher was very proud to say that when they were young, they could assemble a radio according to the simple circuit diagrams they saw in the book. Although it was crude, it saved money.

The old master not only taught Liu Meiyu how to assemble it, but also demonstrated to her the improved upgraded and stable version.

She just needs to find someone to get the components.
