Traveling between the 70s and the modern world

Chapter 305: Selling Film, Helper Arrives

Lin Qingyan looked at Ye Yi.

"Find me?"

"Yes, I don't know where they got the information from, but they came to you directly."

Ye Yi thought about the person who came and went straight to Lin Qingyan without hesitation.

"Did he say anything?"

"I didn't say anything. I left when I saw you weren't here. I said I'd come back tomorrow."

"Okay, I understand. I'll wait in the store tomorrow!"

Lin Qingyan finished the last bite of the bun, and then she and Ye Yi set up the dining table in the yard. They also served the pork rib soup and placed it there, waiting for Wang Lanlan to come back.

Not only Lin Qingyan was satisfied with tonight's dinner, but Ye Yi and the others were even more satisfied.

The next day, Lin Qingyan stayed in the store, while Wang Lanlan and Xu Jianshan continued to go out to look for shops. They did not see any suitable shops yesterday, so they planned to go to the Housing Management Office to take a look today.

Around noon, a man came outside the store. When Ye Yi saw him for the first time, she whispered to Lin Qingyan.

"It was he who came to you yesterday."

As soon as they finished speaking, the visitor walked up to them and asked with a smile:

"Hello, is this Comrade Lin?"

"Hello, I'm Lin Qingyan!"

"Hello, Comrade Lin. My name is Zhang Guoping. I work at Changyuan Photo Studio. I'm here to share some recent news about your studio.

Almost all the photo studios in Beijing know about it. You are amazing and your booming business makes us jealous."

Zhang Guoping introduced himself.

Lin Qingyan stood there, waiting for him to explain his purpose.

"Comrade Lin, this is what I am going to say. I know that what I am going to say may be a little presumptuous. I would like to know where you buy your color film from. Can you introduce the channel to me? Or can you sell me some film?"

Ye Yi was a little dissatisfied with him. She had heard from Fang Yunxing how difficult it was to buy color film now.

So he said directly: "Just know that it's presumptuous!"

Zhang Guoping was a little embarrassed.

"I'm sorry. I know it's very presumptuous, but the photo studio also employs several people, which means they have several families. I also want to make more money like your photo studio."

Lin Qingyan had no ill feelings towards him. She really found the right person to buy film from. She had just come up with the idea of ​​selling cameras and film, and now someone came to her door to deliver them. She couldn't help but feel happy.

But she was only happy in her heart and didn't dare let anyone know that her film was easy to get.

So he pretended to hesitate for a while before saying to Zhang Guoping:

"It's not easy to get our film."

"If you can help me get color film, I can give you 5 yuan more for each roll." Seeing her hesitation, Zhang Guoping quickly raised the price.

Lin Qingyan said in embarrassment: "I'll try. If I can get more, I'll give you some, but I can't guarantee it."

"Thank you, Comrade Lin. You have helped me a lot."

Zhang Guoping was very grateful. He didn't expect that he could actually get the film.

"Ye Yi, take two rolls of film from inside and give them to Comrade Zhang first."

Lin Qingyan's words surprised Zhang Guoping even more.

"Use these two rolls of film first. Come back for the other rolls in a week."

When Ye Yi went inside and took out two rolls of film and handed them to him, he still couldn't believe it. He stupidly paid the money and left with the film.

After they walked away, he finally reacted and ran to the state-owned restaurant to pack two servings of dumplings for Lin Qingyan and the others.

Somehow the news that Zhang Guoping came to buy film spread to other photo studios. In the following days, more people came to buy film. Lin Qingyan was fair and sold two rolls to each person to test the waters first.

In the past few days, Wang Lanlan and Xu Jianshan found a suitable shop, rented it, and hired someone to clean up and prepare to open a new store.

Several people were busy in the shop when two men came outside, each carrying luggage.

"Excuse me, is Comrade Lin Qingyan here?" one of the men asked standing at the door.

Qingyan turned around and saw two faces with serious and nervous expressions. They were dressed simply, similar to the people in Xishui Village.

She thought for a moment, then smiled and asked:

"Are you Gu Yizhou's comrades?"

"Yes, I am Captain Gu's comrade-in-arms. My name is Zhong Yun."

"Come in and sit down quickly. I was just about to ask Gu Yizhou when you guys would arrive. What a coincidence."

Lin Qingyan hurriedly let them in, and Xu Jianshan also stepped forward to take their luggage.

It was then that Lin Qingyan and the others discovered that Zhong Yun was limping when he walked. They pretended not to notice and let them into the house. This made Zhong Yun, who had been hanging on his horns, relax a little.

"We set out together after receiving a telegram from Captain Gu. My name is Li Feng."

After coming in, another person also introduced himself.

They were all Gu Yizhou's former comrades-in-arms. When Gu Yizhou was still a company commander, they were his subordinates. After Gu Yizhou was promoted, they were still used to calling him that.

Ye Yi also brought them some sugared water, "Drink some water first."

"Thank you!"

"How many of you are coming this time?" Lin Qingyan asked with a smile after they finished drinking the water.

"Li Feng and I are from the same hometown, from the same county. After receiving the telegram, we came here together. As for the others, they may be farther away than us."

Zhong Yun actually didn’t know who Gu Yizhou had notified, but he and Li Feng made a few guesses and they might be the injured and retired personnel in their group.

"You came at the right time. I need your help right now. I wonder if Gu Yizhou has told you. Do you know what you are doing here?"

"I don't know what to do specifically. The company commander said he would introduce a job to us and told us to come to this address to find you. I don't know anything else."

Li Feng's words left Lin Qingyan at a loss for words.

Fortunately, it is this simple era. If it were in later times, they might be sold to other countries to do hard labor, or even sold as living QG.

This is also the beauty of this era, people are full of trust among each other.

Lin Qingyan smiled and told them the treatment she had told Gu Yizhou about, and added:

"We want to hire you to work in the photo studios. We have three photo studios. When school starts, we all need to go to school, so the photo studios need you to open shops in the stores.

Or take photos for people, etc. Every photo studio can accommodate people, and you will get a monthly subsidy for food, which is enough for your daily meals. Do you want to do that?"

"I do."

"I would like it too!"

When Zhong Yun and Li Feng heard about the salary, they wanted to agree before they knew what they were going to do. As a result, they not only received salary and commission, but also subsidies.

Apart from food, they have no other expenses, so they can save all their monthly salary.

The two were very happy to have 30 yuan in savings every month. When they get their salary in the future,

When she saw such a high commission, she excitedly pulled Gu Yizhou's sleeve and cried, wanting to treat Gu Yizhou and Lin Qingyan as her reborn parents.
