"Television tickets."

The voice rang in Yang Xiaotao's ears, and then a sense of surprise crawled onto his cheeks.

This had appeared in Yang Xiaotao's expectation, but it was just a thought.

After all, TV sets at this time were definitely luxury goods.

Since the first domestic television was developed at the Jinmen Radio Factory, many television manufacturers have emerged in recent years.

It stands to reason that with the development over the years, a lot of TV sets should be produced.

But in fact, there are really not many TV sets produced in China.

Compared with the 1980s and 1990s, it would not be an exaggeration to describe it as rare.

There are many reasons for this situation.

The most important thing is that the technology is not up to standard. TV sets are built, but soon the screen will go black, snowflakes will continue to fall, or one line will turn into many lines. In short, domestic technology is immature.

Moreover, it is said that the first television was dismantled and imitated by the Alliance. At that time, researchers did not even know what a television was, so they thought they could learn more about it by dismantling the television.

As a result, looking at the pile of components inside the TV set also gave them a headache, because they didn't even know these components.

Under such circumstances, the TV produced cannot be said to be bad, but it will definitely have problems.

Furthermore, the demand is not that big. Nowadays, people are thinking about how to fill their stomachs, and the need for spiritual entertainment can be satisfied by chatting in the courtyard. The short-sighted ones can just watch a movie.

Things like televisions don't have many channels, so people don't have much demand for them.

However, just because demand is low doesn’t mean people don’t like it.

These days, a radio can bring dozens or hundreds of people together to listen to music. If a TV were moved out, it would definitely be a household name in the surrounding area.

If this were to be left to future generations, it would be like owning a private jet.

And now, a TV ticket is right in front of you.

It belongs to you.

Taking over the TV ticket from Lou Xiao'e, Yang Xiaotao hadn't warmed up yet when Yang Youning beside him took it over and said, "Let me take a look, let me take a look."

"This TV ticket looks like this. It's really nice."

Liu Huaimin, Xu Yuanshan and others also came over to take a closer look. The words on it were particularly eye-catching, "One 14-inch TV in Four Nine City".

This is a television.

After everyone finished sighing, Yang Xiaotao took the TV ticket back from Chen Gong and put it in his pocket, not forgetting to take a photo.

"It's true, Mr. Huang, if I had told him it was this thing, I wouldn't have let him go, so as not to envy the dead here."

Seeing Yang Xiaotao's appearance, Yang Youning said sourly.

Liu Huaimin smiled at the side, "It's okay. If there is the first channel, there will be the second channel. We will have it sooner or later."

"Yes, there are more and more TV manufacturers now, and we will have them in the future too."

Xu Yuanshan and others nodded, paralyzing themselves.

Ding Xiangjun looked back and sighed.

"My second uncle works at the Jinmen Radio Factory. He said that the TV industry has been in a bad situation in recent years. Their main task is not to produce, but to study technology."

"There are countless TV sets released every year. It is estimated that it will be difficult to get them."

After listening to this, several people felt better just now, but now they felt sore and numb again.

The skills competition ended successfully, at least for Yang Xiaotao.

After returning to the office and summarizing the situation of the conference with Liu Huaimin and others, Yang Xiaotao couldn't wait to go back and take stock of the harvest.

First of all, TV tickets are definitely the biggest prize.

You can tell this by looking at the envious and resentful look in Lou Xiao'e's eyes from time to time.

In addition, there are blankets, pillow covers, mirrors, etc., just like everyone else.

But there are two more gray rectangular pieces of soap.

Soap is also in short supply these days, and one person can only buy one piece per month with a ticket. This is why some people find it so troublesome to wash clothes in the yard, and it takes a whole day to wash them.

Then there is a supporting document for the TV ticket.

It is clearly written on it that this ticket is a reward for the winning worker in the skills competition. The person who awarded the ticket is naturally Yang Xiaotao who just wrote it, and the signature stamp is from the No. 1 Machinery Department.

Prove the source of the bill, so you don't have to worry about being suspected.

Looking at the TV ticket in his hand, Yang Xiaotao turned his wrist to check the time. At 4:30 in the afternoon, he asked casually, "What time does the Chengdong Supply and Marketing Cooperative close?"

Lou Xiao'e was lost in thought. When her family was so wealthy, they didn't even have a TV set, and there was nothing they had heard of.

She had only heard of it, but she had only seen it in newspaper photos.

But now, there is a TV ticket in front of me. Although it is definitely not cheap, the money is nothing compared to how precious the ticket is.

There are definitely many people in this factory who can afford a TV, but currently, there is only one person who can afford a TV ticket.

Hearing Yang Xiaotao's question, Lou Xiao'e suddenly came back to her senses and said, "You mean the main store?"

"Yes, this thing is only available in large supply and marketing cooperatives."

"It seems to be six o'clock, but it gets dark early now, so it may be closed after five o'clock."

Lou Xiao'e knew why Yang Xiaotao asked this, and she probably wanted to buy a TV.

"I think you can go tomorrow and save yourself a wasted trip."

"Tomorrow? People don't have a holiday on New Year's Day. I'll go take a look first, just to explore the way."

With that said, Yang Xiaotao put the TV ticket in his pocket, then ran out with his bag.

Lou Xiao'e stood up and was about to follow her to have a look, but she stopped after taking two steps.

It doesn't matter if you go alone.

Biting her lip, she slowly sat down.

My heart went back and forth a thousand times, and finally turned into a sigh.

"Xiao'e!"

At this time, a female voice came from the door. Lou Xiao'e looked up and saw Liu Lixue standing aside with a heroic look, "I am going to develop photos here. If you are free, come and help me."

"Lixue, I'm coming right away."

...

The jeep left two tracks on the ground, and as the sound faded away, it quickly drove towards the supply and marketing cooperative.

It was already dark, so Yang Xiaotao came at the right time. There were still a few people coming in and out at the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative.

Yang Xiaotao parked the car directly at the door, jumped out of the car, and ran to the gate of the supply and marketing cooperative.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Comrade, comrade."

Looking at the saleswoman who was about to close the stall, Yang Xiaotao spoke quickly.

"Hello, do you need anything?"

Although the arrival of someone at this time delayed her get off work, the saleswoman saw that Yang Xiaotao was well-dressed, with a pen in his pocket, and the jeep parked outside undoubtedly showed that the young man in front of her had an unusual identity.

As one of the eight members of the sales staff, she naturally has her own 'pride', but she also has to share her pride with others.

Otherwise, I won’t be able to sit firmly in this ‘hot’ position.

"Hello comrade, I would like to ask, do we have a TV here?"

When Yang Xiaotao spoke, the saleswoman was shocked.

This person actually asked about the TV?

Oh my god, in the past six months, as the Chinese New Year is approaching, this is the first time someone has asked me this question.

It's not that no one has asked before, but it's basically just for fun. Without tickets, what's the use of having money?

"Comrade, there are TV sets, but to buy a TV set, you need a TV ticket."

Yang Xiaotao nodded, "I have this."

As he spoke, he took out the neat TV tickets from his backpack.

The moment she took it out, the saleswoman's heart beat suddenly.

There really is.

"You, do you have a certificate?"

"Yes, here."

Yang Xiaotao handed over the certificate.

The saleswoman looked at it, then her face became excited, and her eyes looked again and again at Yang Xiaotao's face, as if she was confirming something.

Yang Xiaotao didn't feel bored either. She thought it was about the confirmation process. She could just watch it if she wanted to.
