After chatting here for a while, Lin Lu walked around and went into a store.
I promised Lin Jingbei that I would buy him a Walkman.
Lin Lu looked around but couldn't find it, so he asked a shop assistant.
"What do you need, miss?"
Lin Lu: "Do you have anything small that I can use to listen to music anytime?"
Lin Lu saw people using it a few years ago. At that time, there was no such thing in China. I heard that it was bought from abroad.
Shop assistant: "Are you talking about the Walkman?"
"Yes," Lin Lu even forgot what his name was.
"We don't have that thing here. You have to go to the specialty store."
"Excuse me, where is the store?"
"There's a store called Future Technology on Tianyun Road, in front of Xinxing Plaza. You can take bus No. 126 to check it out."
"Thank you."
"It's okay, welcome to come next time."
As soon as Lin Lu got on the bus, Song Chen called.
"Hey, what's up?"
Song Chen: "What are you doing now? Did you buy anything?"
Lin Lu: "Not yet. I'm going to buy Jingbei a Walkman for study."
Song Chen said sourly: "You are so nice to him."
Lin Lu lowered his voice: "What do you want? I can buy it for you, why are you so jealous?"
Song Chen: "Is it interesting that I say this? You always buy it for him even when he doesn't ask you to. But you only buy it for me when I ask you to. Is this fair?"
Lin Lu: "I see. I'll buy it for you, okay? Aren't you busy over there?"
Song Chen: "Nothing, I visited a few factories. Did you meet any weird people?"
"There aren't so many weird people." Lin Lu replied, "I'm in the car, it's not convenient to talk on the phone. I'll hang up first and talk to you later."
Inconvenient? Song Chen couldn't understand why it was inconvenient to be in the car.
Many people on the bus were from Shanghai, speaking their local dialect. Lin Lu could only vaguely understand a few words, but didn't pay much attention. He closed his eyes and rested for half an hour before the bus arrived.
There are more people in the square here, and there are even some people setting up small stalls.
Lin Lu looked around and saw a shop with a striking and elegant decoration. It was called "Future Technology", which was the name the clerk mentioned.
When Lin Lu pushed the door open, he found that there were many people inside, and they were all young people.
"Excuse me." A young man squeezed in from behind her.
Lin Lu moved to let him in.
After a quick look, I found that all they sold were rare and expensive foreign items.
Everything is stored in lockers with prices clearly marked.
Lin Lu saw a few people with something on their ears, so he walked towards them and saw several exquisite walkmans in the window over there.
It's not that small actually, compared to a radio.
And there is also a pair of headphones, which you can carry with you and listen to in any occasion without worrying about disturbing others.
What a wonderful invention.
Lin Lu asked the store clerk in uniform to get her a white one.
"Can I try it?"
"Of course." The clerk replied with a smile.
There was a magnetic cassette in the Walkman. After the clerk turned it on, he played some music for Lin Lu.
Lin Lu put on headphones, and the most popular Cantonese song at the time rang in his ears.
The sound quality is pretty good.
“Can this one understand English?”
"Sure, just put the English magnetic box in."
Lin Lu asked again, "Do you have any English cassettes? Can you put them on so I can listen? I bought this for my child to learn English."
The clerk said: "Yes, please wait a moment, I will find it for you right away. You have a good eye. Our most popular model is sold by parents. Many of them are bought for their children's learning just like you."
"Hey, there's also a tape of my English songs, don't forget them."
Lin Lu was still waiting for the clerk to bring her the magnetic box when she was suddenly hit against the hard glass cabinet by a strong force.
The glass didn't break, but Lin Lu's waist hit the sharp horn right on top. Then, because he couldn't stand steadily, he fell down and hit the side of another glass cabinet.
"Hiss~"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. Are you okay?" The man stepped forward, picked up Lin Lu's crutch, and helped her up.
After hearing the commotion, people in the store immediately gathered around.
Lin Lu felt like his waist was about to give way; the accident happened too suddenly.
She hasn't reacted yet.
The man scratched his head and admitted his mistake in a very good manner: "Miss, I'm so sorry. I'll take you to the hospital and I'll cover the medical expenses."
Lin Lu had some impression of this person, the one who came in after her.
Just now, she accidentally caught a glimpse of this person standing in front of the cupboard a few meters away.
How could I bump into her straight away after coming over there?
Can't you see she's such a big person?
This series of speculations had to make Lin Lu alert: "No need, just compensate me with some money, and I'll call my husband to pick me up."
The man was embarrassed: "But I...I don't have that much money on me."
Lin Lu: "Why did you come in without any money?"
Man: "I just came in to take a look, okay?"
Lin Lu asked again: "Then you said you would take me to the hospital and pay for the medical expenses, you were lying to me."
The man denied it: "No, I was planning to take you to the hospital first and then go home to get the money."
Lin Lu: "Then go home and get it now."
The clerk came over with the English magnetic box and said, "Calm down, Miss, please call your wife first, and this gentleman, please go back and get the money."
