Crunch, Xian Weimin rode a brand new permanent bicycle and parked it at the door of South House.

"Nanyi, let's see how my bike looks like. Is it going to be a hit?"

"Dad, our family doesn't have a bicycle yet, would you like to buy one too?"

"Okay, Dad will not only buy one for himself, but also for you." Nan Yi agreed and said to Xian Weimin: "Help me get a Phoenix bicycle ticket."

"No problem, I'll deliver it to you tomorrow."

Xian Weimin readily agreed. He had a good relationship with the supply and marketing cooperative. It was very difficult for others to get a ticket, but for Xian Weimin, it was a piece of cake.

Nan Yi doesn't have many tickets in his hand anymore. Except for those that are frequently used in daily life, Men San'er has long ago given away the other tickets. Many of the tickets have an expiration date, and they will expire if he doesn't keep them.

Xian Weimin quickly bought a Phoenix bicycle ticket, which is commonly known as a "special ticket" by the people.

Phoenix, Forever and Feige are the three famous bicycle brands in my country.

I dare not say that it will be compared to the Rolls-Royce of later generations. It must be the model of Mercedes-Benz, Audi, and BMW. It must also be an imported one, with no words on the left side of the butt of the car that you want to cut out.

Moreover, the price of the naked car must exceed one million to qualify for the equal sign.

If you want to buy these three brands of bicycles, you must have special purchase coupons. You can't buy those kind of mass-market bicycles with tickets, let alone save industrial tickets. Those that can be bought with industrial tickets can only be from other brands.

"Comrade, how do you sell children's tricycles?"

There was no improvement at the supply and marketing cooperative in Bao'an City, so Nan Yi and Nan Ruobin went directly to Bicycle.

"Twenty-eight, six industrial votes."

"Where's the Phoenix bicycle? This is it." Nan Yi pointed to a 28-inch bicycle.

"You need a special ticket to buy Phoenix, do you have one?"

Generally speaking, tellers at supply and marketing cooperatives are unlikely to be gentle and enthusiastic. If their nostrils are not pointed toward the sky, it is a gift to you.

Ignorance and indifference are their professional expressions.

"have."

Nan Yi took out the ticket and showed it. The teller's eyes were very bright and he saw a not too obvious dash drawn on the upper left corner of the ticket.

Yes, she knew it well, this was a related household.

The teller controlled the muscles on his face and changed his subtle expression, slowly changing from indifferent to a breath of spring breeze.

"It's a coincidence that you're here. Phoenix just arrived yesterday. Take a look at these cars first. If you're not satisfied, I'll have someone go to the warehouse to adjust them."

"Don't bother, I think this car is pretty good. How much does it cost?"

"One hundred and eighty dollars."

"Okay, I'll pay."

Nan Yi took Nan Ruobin to the cashier, paid the money and tickets, and got a receipt.

In the great enthusiasm of the teller, he put the children's tricycle on the schoolbag rack, let Nan Ruobing sit on the big bar, and pushed the tricycle to the public security bureau not far away.

"Dad, I also want two wheels."

"Isn't there no need to sell it? You can play with the three-wheeled one first, and when you get to Xiangguan, ask your great-grandmother to buy you a two-wheeled one with a variable speed."

"oh."

"Hello, comrade, I would like to ask, where is the place to get the license plate?"

When he arrived at the entrance of the Public Security Bureau, Nan Yi went to the window of the reception room to inquire.

"Go straight inside, then turn left. There is a bicycle management office sign on the wall. You can see it at a glance."

"Okay, thank you, comrade."

Nan Yi followed the instructions and found the location after walking a few steps.

These days, buying a bicycle is more difficult than buying a brand-name car in later generations. Naturally, not many people can afford it. There is no one else except the staff at the place where the bicycle is sold.

After paying the license fee of 15 cents, the staff gave him a receipt. Nan Yi was waiting there while the staff went to stamp his bicycle and press the license plate.

After the license plate was obtained, the staff asked Nan Yi to get in the car and ride around.

Nan Yi did as he was told. When the staff saw that Nan Yi really knew how to ride, he returned to the office and asked for Nan Yi's name, address, and work unit, and then applied for a bicycle driving permit, which is also a driver's license.

"After exiting the gate, go to the right. That's the tax office. You pay your annual tax there." The staff member said after handing the driver's license to Nan Yi.

"Okay, thank you, I'll pay it right away. Ruobing, let's go, let's pay the tax." Nan Yi walked out of the office and shouted to Nan Ruobing who was standing beside him.

"Dad, why doesn't my car have a license plate?"

"Haha, yours is a toy and does not require a license plate."

"But I want to."

"I'll do it for you when you get back, and put a license plate on your car, okay?"

"Uh-huh."

Nan Yi pushed the car and looked at the rear fender, 1977618. Look at the license plate number. He was very satisfied.

I went to the tax office to pay the annual tax for 1979, which totaled two yuan and forty cents. I received a tax payment certificate sticker and put it on the specified page of my driving license.

The entire car purchasing process is now considered complete. From now on, you only need to pay the tax once a year.

Nan Yi remembers that the bicycle tax will be suspended in two years, and then restored in the early 1990s; it was not until July 1, 2007 that the bicycle tax was eliminated from the vehicle and vessel license tax.

However, this tax is not strictly enforced. Apart from paying it in the first year after buying a new car, many people estimate that they will not take the initiative to pay it in the second year.

Even later, most people didn't know there was a bicycle tax.

It’s normal not to know. In a few years, who will buy a bicycle and still have a license plate, let alone pay taxes?

After buying rice rolls for Nan Ruobong, Nan Yi took the little girl to the first house he bought in Bao'an while riding a bicycle.

The house is in Shenzhen Ruins. It is an arcade built in the 1920s. The old street is full of arcades, so it is hidden among the mountains and water.

The original landlord went to Xiangguan in 1977 and was about to sell the house. Nan Yi happened to come across it and bought it. The price was not expensive, only costing 350 yuan.

The main reason is that the location is good and it is considered the center of the county.

Opening the door, you came to the living room that used to be a store. There was a bicycle parked in the middle. Against the wall, there were several snakeskin bags filled with various kinds of wine.

"Dad, this is also our home?"

"Yes, it's ours too."

"Why does it smell so bad here?"

"No one lives in it, and no one takes care of it. Of course it will get moldy. Can you and dad come over and clean it up some other time?"

"good."

Nan Yi found two snakeskin bags from the side, stuffed some wine into the bags, put the mouths of the two bags together and tied a slip knot, and hung them on the bag rack.

Lock the door and ride with Nan Ruobin in the direction of Wenchangwei.

There is only a little liquor and a bicycle stored in this house. Anyone can steal it, and Nan Yi doesn't really care.

Don't say what the price of Moutai in this era will be in the future. If a bottle is stolen, the loss is not small.

The value of the collection is actually relatively illusory. As long as Nan Yi is willing, Nan Ruobin can draw a straight line on a piece of white paper and sell it to a sky-high price, hundreds of millions per piece.

Riding a bicycle and approaching Wenchangwei, Nan Ruopeng saw a pile of dried cow dung on the roadside, and said to Nan Yi: "Dad, the cow dung is dry, take it back and light a fire."

With a squeak, Nan Yi squeezed the brakes and put the little girl on the ground first. He then parked the car and the two of them walked to the edge of the cow dung together.

"Look at the shape of the pile of cow dung and the shape of the splash. It's perfect. It's so perfect. It's simply a work of art. It's a waste of money if it's used to make a fire. Ruobin, you watch here. I'll go back and get the dustpan. Dad is going to

It’s stored away.”

"Can cow dung be sold for a lot of money?"

"Of course you can. As long as you know how to package it, dad will give it a name first..."1979, The Taste of Summer", is this a good name?"

"Sounds good."

"Dad will go back first, so you must keep an eye on it. In the future, dad will have to sell it to buy a dowry for you."
