NOVEL SIMPLE Chapter 28
Zhengyangmen, commonly known as Qianmen, is also called Lizhengmen.
It was originally one of the nine inner gates of the city. Later, it was divided into two parts due to road construction, so people called the area where Dashilan is located Qianmen.
Just like Nanluoguxiang has never been an alley, Zhengyangmen is not simply a city gate. Both are an area. It's just different from Nanluoguxiang.
Zhengyangmen is famous for its famous Qing Dynasty city gate and commercial district. It has a long history. It is not only a popular tourist attraction, but also a prosperous commercial district with a large number of time-honored brands rooted here.
To put it more bluntly.
That is, Nanluoguxiang is a residential area, and most of the people living in it are workers and ordinary people.
Zhengyangmen is located in a commercial area, and many of the people living in it are small owners with their own shops and industries.
Although the two places are not far apart, they are two completely different circles.
As for what is the difference between these two circles?
For details, you can refer to the two TV series"Love in the Courtyard" and"The Villain Under Zhengyangmen"
《Most of the people in"Love in Siheyuan" are workers and ordinary people. Before the opening up, they just wanted a good job, enough food, not hungry, and a good meal occasionally.
After the opening up, the people in the Siheyuan could only think of working for others, opening a small restaurant, and using the relationship with the steel plant to trade steel. Finally, Xu Damao and others were bolder and wanted to smuggle TVs, but they capsized and lost everything.
Calculations and calculations.
What they wanted was nothing more than retirement, enough food, a room, being a small leader, how to avoid being laid off, etc. The main focus was on the family affairs and the real life of the lower-class people.
Of course, Lou Xiao'e is not counted, because her background is there, and she went to Hong Kong in the chaotic era, and she had no connection with the Siheyuan.
In summary, the people in the Siheyuan are a group of ordinary people at the bottom. Even if they are smart and scheming, and they are arranged to have a relationship with a big leader, these people's vision and pattern are just like that, and they can't jump out of the circle of ordinary people at all.
But the characters in"The Little Woman Under the Zhengyang Gate" are different.
Most of the people living in Zhengyang Gate are small property owners, belonging to the business circle.
People like Xu Huizhen, Chen Xueru, etc., even in special times, because of the identity of small property owners, they have never worried about a bite to eat, a house, and a job.
Many people only think that workers are the theme of this era, but they don’t know that small property owners live more freely than workers.
Especially after the public-private partnership, while receiving dividend compensation, they directly transformed their small property owners into the working class, which is better than ordinary workers.
After the opening up, one by one, they directly started restaurants, foreign trade, antiques, real estate, etc., and took off instantly. Compared with the group of people in the courtyard, don’t go too far.
Even if it is the protagonist of another period drama"Under the Zhengyang Gate", Han Chunming, isn’t his starting point much more difficult than Sha Zhu, Xu Damao and the like?
But after he knew about it and returned to the city, he dared to do anything to make money, and he could put down his identity to do it.
Moving bricks at construction sites, reselling eggs, collecting second-hand bicycles, smuggling cars, opening restaurants, engaging in real estate, and building museums...
What is vision and pattern?
This is it!
Of course, He Daqing said this not to emphasize how powerful the people in Zhengyangmen are, or how bad the people in the courtyard houses of Nanluoguxiang are, but only to emphasize the influence of circles and living environment.
Living in the courtyard houses of Nanluoguxiang, what you come into contact with and see is the nearby workers' circle, a white flour bun, a house, and various calculations for retirement.
Living in the Zhengyangmen area, you can come into contact with small owners, and see how others rely on the policies from above to do business, do business, and make money.
And if you live in a family like Lou Xiao'e, it is another level.
It is no longer limited to how to make money by relying on the policies given by the above, but to predict what policies will be issued by the above in advance, make arrangements in advance, and even influence some decisions from the above.
Poor peasants, middle peasants, civilians, workers, vendors, small owners, capitalists, cadres...
Such a division of composition is also a division of circles.
He Daqing pushed his bicycle and walked on the bustling and noisy Daqianmen Street. In a trance, he could see that the tide of the times would soon shatter this commercial prosperity.
And those old people who carried bird cages for walking, actually walked on the street with bird cages in their arms, which was completely incompatible with this era.
This really shocked He Daqing, and his face was full of disbelief.
Did the higher-ups feed them too much, or did they think they were still living in the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China?
Let's wait a few more years and see.
He Daqing felt that these people, let alone carrying bird cages for walking, would probably roast a sparrow if they caught it.
"No. 32, No. 34,... No. 66, No. 68... No. 82!"
"Hey, this is...Xueru Silk Shop?"
He Daqing was pushing his bicycle while counting the house numbers on both sides of the street. When he saw the name"Xueru Silk Shop", he was stunned.
"Is it such a coincidence that I just thought of the TV series"Little Women Under Zhengyang Gate" and saw this Xueru Silk Shop in a blink of an eye"
"Could it be that this world is not just the world of"The Love in the Courtyard", but also a fusion of other period dramas?"
He Daqing looked at the large silk shop in front of him, which was full of people coming and going, and was extremely surprised.
Look at the house number of the silk shop.
No. 82 Daqianmen Street!
Then think about the store address given to him by the system, No. 88 Daqianmen Street.
The two shops should be on the same side of Daqianmen Street, with only two storefronts in the middle.
"Forget it, let’s not think about it for now. Anyway, Xueru Silk Shop is here and I can’t run away. I’ll check it out later when I have time."
"Let's go check out the store the system gave us first!"
He Daqing looked at the busy Xueru Silk Shop and finally gave up the idea of going in to verify it now. He planned to wait until he had a chance. The most urgent thing now was to check out his own store.
The Xueru Silk Shop didn't have long legs, so he could go check it out anytime. There was no rush. It was getting late now. After checking out the store, he had to go back early to cook for his daughter.
How could he have the time to flirt with a little girl!...............................
