Chapter 385 Canton Fair
Early in the morning, Wang Yuanchao was awakened by the sound of training in the courtyard.
"One, two, three, four."
"One, two, three, four."
Wang Yuanchao put on his clothes and walked to the window to take a look. Hey, come on, these are just some young people from the compound running, practicing boxing, and exercising under the supervision of their grandfathers.
After Wang Yuanchao and his young wife finished washing up, they went downstairs together.
After having breakfast with my aunt, Lu Guoguang's orderly took me to the temporary office of the Yangcheng Fertilizer Plant in a military jeep.
Job quotas are assigned to specific people and positions. The jobs for my mother-in-law and my daughter-in-law have already been decided.
The orderly took my mother-in-law and my young wife in and started to go through the employment formalities. After the process was completed, they asked the company to issue a certificate.
The orderly drove them to the Hongqiao Subdistrict Office. People in any era would look at the clothes first and then the person.
The orderly who came in a military jeep was obviously very proud.
Wang Yuanchao and his group went through the settlement procedures, and Director Tian from the Street Office personally took care of all the formalities.
It took nearly two hours for Wang Yuanchao's family to go through the employment and settlement process. This is the benefit of having someone to rely on.
After walking out of the police station with the family's new household registration booklet,
Wang Yuanchao thought that his family had not been to Yangcheng yet, so he said, "Brother Yuan, my family just came to Yangcheng from the northeast yesterday, and we haven't been to Yangcheng properly yet. Do you have any good places to go?"
After hearing this, the orderly Jin Zaiyuan said with a smile: "It just so happens that the Spring Canton Fair is being held in Yangcheng now. Although it is almost over,
But it's still very lively. Why don't you go there with your sister-in-law and aunt?"
When Wang Yuanchao heard about the Canton Fair, he became interested and said happily, "Okay, Brother Yuan, how about you take us to the Canton Fair?"
Jin Zaiyuan smiled and nodded, "Okay, Yuan Chao, get in the car, I'll take you to Haizhu Square."
This year's Canton Fair was held at the Qiyi Road Exhibition Hall in Haizhu Square, Yangcheng.
The total construction area of the exhibition hall is 40,200 square meters, and the usable area is 34,500 square meters.
After Wang Yuanchao and his family arrived at the exhibition hall, they were shocked by the large ten-story buildings in front of them . You have to know that in this era, even in Guangzhou, what everyone saw along the way was...
There are mainly low-rise residential buildings and small buildings. Except for some historical landmark buildings, there are almost no tall buildings. What's more, the buildings here are mainly arcade buildings with the characteristics of Guangzhou, which can provide pedestrians with sunshade and rain shelter, and have a unique commercial atmosphere. This kind of building is called Tanglou in Hong Kong, and it can often be seen in Hong Kong movies in the past.
The location of the Haizhu Square Exhibition Hall is obviously a very developed area in Guangzhou. It is surrounded by eight-, nine-, and even ten-story buildings.
It is similar to the streets in the 1990s in my previous life. There are a lot of people here, and they are dressed in fashionable clothes. Most of the men wear white shirts and Mao suits.
Except for some young girls wearing school uniforms, most of the women were wearing dresses and braids, and occasionally there were some middle-aged women wearing cheongsams.
This is much more fashionable than the big cotton-padded jackets worn in Northeast China.
Although it's not as bad as in the past life where you can see white thighs and arms when walking on the street, and occasionally a big back is exposed,
But in this era when black, green and blue are the main colors of clothing,
These girls walking on the street in their colorful skirts are really eye-catching.
Widow Du and her young wife followed Wang Yuanchao and visited the Canton Fair like country bumpkins, looking at the exhibition halls one by one.
Domestic ceramics have long enjoyed a great reputation in the world, and this Canton Fair will display a variety of exquisite porcelains, such as tableware, tea sets, vases, etc.
It has exquisite craftsmanship, beautiful shapes, rich patterns, and strong Chinese cultural characteristics.
Wang Yuanchao's family loved the products, but unfortunately all the products at the Canton Fair had to be exported to earn foreign exchange, so Wang Yuanchao's family couldn't buy any of them even if they had the money.
After visiting the ceramics area, Wang Yuanchao and his family went to the silk products area.
Looking at the silk fabrics, silk clothing, silk scarves, etc.
Domestic silk is favored by foreign customers for its delicate texture, brilliant colors and exquisite craftsmanship, and is an important exhibit at the Canton Fair.
Silk clothing styles include both traditional Chinese clothing, such as cheongsam, and modern clothing designed with Western fashion elements.
Moreover, the domestic embroidery craft has a long history, with different schools such as Suzhou embroidery, Guangdong embroidery, Hunan embroidery, and Sichuan embroidery.
The Canton Fair also displays various embroidery works, such as embroidered screens, embroidered pendants, embroidered clothing, etc., which have delicate stitches, exquisite patterns and high artistic value.
In addition to ceramics and silk, domestic bamboo and wood products are also a major source of foreign exchange, such as bamboo baskets, wooden boxes, wood carvings, etc. These bamboo and wood products are exquisitely crafted, reflecting the traditional domestic handicraft level, and are also practical and can be used for decoration, storage, etc.
Although it was only 1970, the exhibits at the Canton Fair of that era were really rich and varied.
There are various kinds of tea on the booth, such as green tea, black tea, oolong tea, dark tea, etc.
A variety of high-quality teas are displayed at the Canton Fair for foreign customers to taste and purchase.
The packaging of tea also has Chinese characteristics, such as tea cans, tea boxes, etc.
The most profitable industry in the entire Canton Fair is the display of Chinese medicinal materials.
These various medicinal materials, such as ginseng, wolfberry, angelica, astragalus, etc., which are purchased at low prices in the country, many of which are unique to the country, are very popular among some foreign pharmaceutical companies and consumers. The prices they sell to foreign countries are also very considerable, and they are a very best-selling type of product.
In addition to the previous ones, the Canton Fair also has a lot of fresh fruits and processed products such as canned fruits and preserved fruits.
Various hardware products: including nails, wires, locks, tools, etc.
Although these hardware products may seem ordinary, they played an important role in production and life at that time. The hardware products at the Canton Fair are of reliable quality, and the domestic prices are very competitive in the global market, making it a major source of foreign exchange earnings.
Wang Yuanchao and his family were strolling around the Canton Fair, and they kept sighing that there really were good things in China.
The family was almost drooling at the things on the various product booths. However, the country is really poor now, and good things must be exported to earn foreign exchange. After all, the country has been blocked by the international community for more than 20 years, and it was not easy to open the blockade.
The country needs to introduce machines and technologies from Western countries to develop its economy and productivity, and naturally the priority is to earn foreign exchange.
Wang Yuanchao looked at the Canton Fair. In addition to the staff of various domestic units and the staff of the organizer, the vast majority of people who came here to purchase were overseas Chinese, followed by a small number of Western white people.
I heard that the sales amount of the entire Canton Fair reached more than 2 billion yuan. This sales amount is very encouraging and can solve many domestic problems.
