After buying three houses in a courtyard with three families, Cao Zhiqiang did not go home with the three uncles, but continued riding his bicycle to the bank alone.

As usual, I went to make an appointment to withdraw 50,000 yuan.

There was no way. Although Cao Zhiqiang still had some money on hand, he felt that he would have to spend money in many places in the future, and many of them would require a lot of money. He would not have time to withdraw money then.

Therefore, it is better to withdraw the money in advance to save time when you need the money.

In this era, when you win big money, you will see the difference between an individual and a company.

If it is business-to-business, such as public institutions or state-owned enterprises, there is no need to pay cash directly in this way. It is usually done by direct transfer or check or money order. The procedure is very simple and no appointment is required at all.

Even if you want to withdraw cash, as long as the public funds of state-owned enterprises and institutions have been deposited in your bank, and the amount is OK, then no matter how much money your unit wants to withdraw, it can basically be withdrawn on the same day.

Even if this bank branch does not have that much money for the time being, as long as state-owned enterprises and government institutions need money, the bank will immediately send people to transfer the money and ensure that you get enough money on time without any delay.

But if you are an individual, it is okay for you to deposit money in the bank at this time. There is no limit. You can have as much money as you want, but if you want to withdraw money from the bank, sorry, there are many restrictions.

Just like now, Cao Zhiqiang obviously has money in his personal bank account, but if he wants to withdraw this money himself, there is a limit. For any money that exceeds the limit, he must first make an appointment to fill out a form and explain the purpose, and then he can withdraw it the next day. And

If the next day is a holiday, it must be postponed.

With this money withdrawal process and speed, if an individual needs a lot of money for urgent matters, it will be a huge delay.

Cao Zhiqiang will use money in many places in the future, and he is not used to making an appointment to withdraw money when something is about to happen, so he simply withdraws it when he can, leaving only a small change in his bankbook.

If it had been anyone else, it would have been dangerous.

After all, the domestic security at this time was really bad. Roadblocks, robbery, and burglaries were commonplace.

But Cao Zhiqiang is different.

He has a portable space, and as long as he puts his money in the space, the safety factor is higher than that of a bank.

Basically, Cao Zhiqiang’s important things now are stored in personal space.

Unless there is a need or just to show off, I won't leave it at home.

The process of making an appointment to withdraw money went smoothly, and the person in charge of reception was an acquaintance, a young girl named Tang Yanling.

Now, he and the female receptionist named Tang Yanling have met many times, and they are considered familiar to each other.

So, while flirting and chatting with the receptionist named Tang Yanling, he made an appointment to withdraw money.

The whole process was very easy, unlike going to the bank to withdraw money in later generations, which was separated by thick bulletproof glass windows.

Not only that, Tang Yanling also took the initiative to invite Cao Zhiqiang to watch a movie together, a movie called "Strange Friends". It was said to be very good-looking and inspirational.

It's a pity that Cao Zhiqiang is really unavailable recently, so he refused without hesitation.

There's nothing I can do about it. He's handsome and rich, so it's too easy to mess with little girls.

Although Tang Yanling is also very good-looking, unfortunately, Cao Zhiqiang, a pretty girl, has too high standards.

Not to mention Yu Yuanyuan, who looks exactly like Yang Xue, even Huaihua and Jin Xiuying, in terms of looks, can beat this Tang Yanling in seconds.

Although it is good to change the taste of Xiaojiabiyu occasionally, just eat wild vegetables, but Cao Zhiqiang really has no time recently, he is busy.

Therefore, Cao Zhiqiang can only hang on to others first and see the opportunity later.

He thought that when he was free in the future, it would not be too late to come to Tang Yanling to have a meal or watch a movie or something.

Just think of it as thanking her for her attentive service. It has absolutely nothing to do with being a scumbag.

In this way, after making an appointment to withdraw money at the bank, Cao Zhiqiang rode his bicycle again and went directly to Jinyu Hutong.

He went to find Yang Ping'an.

At this time, it is time to re-enable this old driver.

Otherwise, it would be too taxing on your legs to ride a bicycle back and forth all day long.

How about going from frugality to luxury but not from luxury to frugality?

Before this, Cao Zhiqiang would have never been able to ride a bicycle back and forth, and he wouldn't feel tired.

But since I started riding a special tricycle, oh, it feels better than riding a bicycle.

Of course, if you drive your own car, that's no problem, but I don't have a car yet.

Even if you have money, you can't buy one, because in 1983, individuals were not allowed to drive private cars.

Well, although strictly speaking, the country allowed private ownership of private cars in 1979, it only allowed private purchases.

Specifically speaking, it is allowed for you to buy a car in your own name, but whether you can buy it or not is another matter.

Nowadays, even state-owned enterprises cannot get car purchase quotas, let alone your private car purchase.

As an ordinary individual, even if you can save enough money to buy a car, you can't get the car purchase quota.

Otherwise, there are many self-employed people who have made a fortune at this time, some worth tens of thousands, but don’t they also have private cars?

Just because it’s private, it’s basically impossible to get a car purchase quota at this time!

Well, even if you have great powers and can obtain car purchase quotas privately and buy a car, there is still a big problem. The relevant departments will not license your private car.

Your car cannot have a license plate, and you may be able to drive it randomly in remote rural areas or small places, and no one will care about you, so you will be fine. However, if you do not have a license plate in the capital city, the traffic police will deduct it for sure.

Therefore, the cars running in the city at this time are basically company cars, even taxis, and there are no private cars.

Private motorcycles do exist, but they are also very scarce. Not only do you have to have money, you also have to find the connections to buy one.

The Jing A motorcycle license plate that became popular in later generations mainly refers to the motorcycle license plates of this period.

During this period, if you were really smart enough to buy a motorcycle, you could get a license plate on it, but after 1985, it would be difficult.

By the way, you can buy a motorcycle and get a Beijing A license plate.

Buying a batch of motorcycles and hoarding a batch of Beijing A motorcycles and saving them for later will be very profitable.

Oops, when you think about it, there is really gold everywhere in the capital at this time. It depends on whether you have the ability to pick it up.

But then again, this business is not that easy.

Not to mention that motorcycles are difficult to buy and require motorcycle tickets. Even if you have the connections, most people don’t have enough money to buy a motorcycle.

At this time, an imported motorcycle costs 10,000 to 20,000 yuan, and a domestically produced motorcycle costs 4,000 to 5,000 yuan. Most people cannot afford it.

Therefore, buying a motorcycle and stocking up on license plates at this time is just like buying a courtyard house, except that it looks beautiful, but the actual operation is very difficult, and the price/performance ratio is not particularly outstanding.

If you really care about cost-effectiveness, it is better to collect antique calligraphy and paintings.

There was no conversation all the way, and we found Yang An's house with familiarity.

It’s still the same dilapidated courtyard, still a cramped space built randomly and privately everywhere.

This type of privately constructed courtyard houses will most likely be demolished in the future.

If not talking about this person, why don't you take a long-term view? You have made such a mess, and the structure of many courtyards has been destroyed. If you don't demolish it, who will you demolish?

"Strong...boss?"

Obviously, Yang Ping'an, who was maintaining his tricycle, was very surprised when he saw Cao Zhiqiang's sudden appearance. No, it was a surprise.

Cao Zhiqiang sees this very clearly. People's first reactions cannot be deceived.

After understanding this, Cao Zhiqiang was very pleased: "Yes, Lao Yang, I'm here to find you."

Yang An'an chuckled, immediately put down the wrench in his hand, rubbed his hands, and said sheepishly: "Oh boss, I should have invited you to sit in the room, but, I'm too young and too messy.

…”

"It's okay." Cao Zhiqiang smiled, passed by Yang An'an, and went directly to Yang An'an's home behind him.

It was really small inside, only about 20 square meters in appearance. There was a table at the end of the room, and two rows of bunk beds on both sides. Under the bed were stuffed full of cardboard boxes.

If this was not a home, I would have thought we were in a college student dormitory in the 1980s and 1990s.

At this time, there was an old lady inside, wearing reading glasses and sitting on the edge of the bed, picking up the soles of her shoes.

Obviously, this old lady should be Yang An'an's mother.

According to Yang An'an's introduction before, Yang An'an's father is gone and he only has one mother. However, her mother is unemployed and has diabetes, so Yang An'an has always been taking care of her.

Fortunately, as for Yang An'an's mother, diabetes is only mild and not serious, so she can control it through diet control, but she is still not able to lose weight.

All in all, the current family is indeed supported by Yang An'an alone. It is no wonder that Yang An'an is taciturn.

With such a big family to support, anyone else would be overwhelmed and no longer talkative.

In fact, Yang An'an had a good idea. If it were Cao Zhiqiang's peers in his previous life, many of them would have run away long ago when faced with this situation. They would not care about the life and death of their families and would only care about themselves.

From this perspective, although there are many selfish people in this era, overall, they are better, or more humane, than the people Cao Zhiqiang was familiar with in his previous life.

Of course, this is also related to the general environment. After all, in the early 1980s, we had not completely fallen into the era of laughing at the poor but not at prostitution, and taking care of ourselves.

But it’s not that great, at least it can’t be compared to the 1950s when people were helping people.

How about there is a saying at this time: In the 1950s, people helped others, in the 1970s, people coaxed others, and in the 1980s, everyone looked out for themselves.

Today is the early 1980s. We have just come from the era of people coaxing others, and are slipping into the era of everyone taking care of themselves, but they have not completely slipped down yet. Therefore, although everyone is very poor at this time, there are still many people like

A filial son like Yang An'an.

Even a white-eyed wolf like Bangge has to maintain a superficial sense of filial piety at this time.
