"Many families in Hong Kong have electric rice cookers, so I bought one to try. As long as it is powered on, it can steam the rice. However, it also has a flaw: it is easy to be undercooked!" Manman explained.
“I…haven’t seen it in the county.”
Even though Shen Baixue had a father who was the deputy director of a coal mine, the things he had seen were far inferior to those in the capital.
Even the video recorders, audio tapes, and even the cameras that Li Jinfeng had replaced several times were not found in the county town below.
But it doesn’t matter too much. Sooner or later, these things will become popular in every household.
"I went to Hong Kong and saw a lot of things I had never seen before, such as electric toothbrushes."
"Electric...toothbrush?"
"That's right. Charge it and press the button. You don't even have to brush hard, the toothbrush will move on its own. There are also various electrical appliances available in Hong Kong and the city." Manman said.
"Big cities are great!" Li Yan said sincerely.
Li Jinfeng interjected, "Then when you get back, study hard and try to get into university in a big city!"
Apart from anything else, the quality of universities in the 1980s was really high.
Basically, you will settle down in the city where you go to college, and now state-owned factories also provide housing.
In twenty or thirty years, a house in the capital will be so expensive that you may not be able to buy it even if you have money.
If there is a demolition or something, maybe I can move to a bigger house.
With a house and a salary, I can live a good life.
Li Yan folded his hands, twisted his fingers, and said with a lack of confidence, "I don't know if I can... pass the exam next year."
"Hard work always pays off!" said Li Jinfeng.
"kindness!"
"In your uncle's hometown, there was a boy in a brigade who took the college entrance examination four times."
"Four...four times!" Li Yan was stunned.
Manman, who was standing aside, looked calm.
Because he had heard about this a long time ago.
Even Yuanyuan knew about it. Of course, Li Jinfeng didn't tell anyone about the matter of worshipping the koi fish, so as to prevent her child from kneeling down and worshipping with a gold medal every day, which would cause a joke if someone saw it.
Anyway, when necessary, Li Jinfeng will make arrangements herself!
"That's right, it's not that his grades were bad, it's that every time he took the college entrance examination, something strange happened! The first time he took the college entrance examination was in 1978, he had enteritis and the stomach pain was unbearable, so he fainted.
The second time he took the Gaokao was in 1979. On the way to the district examination center, he broke his right hand. The third time was in 1980. A few hooligans stripped him of his clothes and pants. In 1981, he took the Gaokao for the fourth time. During the second exam, he lost his admission ticket. This time, I accompanied him. Although I helped him get a temporary ID card, I was still a little late and couldn't enter the examination center.
The person Li Jinfeng was talking about was Wang Hao.
He went to college in the second half of 1981 and graduated last summer with a law degree.
After graduation, Li Jinfeng thought he would accept the job arrangement, but Wang Hao went south and joined a law firm in Zengcheng.
He said he wanted to be one of the first lawyers in the country, and that if Li Jinfeng's company or any of her industries had any business disputes in the future, he would come to help Li Jinfeng.
Li Jinfeng's kindness at the time changed Wang Hao's life. He always remembered Li Jinfeng and Yuanyuan in his heart, although he had never met Yuanyuan in person until now. He only saw him in newspapers and magazines.
