Chapter 112 Photo Studio
Lin Qingyan rode a bike with Ye Yi, and Wang Lanlan followed them on a bike. Soon they arrived at the only photo studio in the county.
"Photo studio?" Wang Lanlan looked at the sign in front of her and asked in confusion.
"Why are we in the photo studio?"
Ye Yi also asked: "Do you want to take a photo?"
"It's not me who wants to take a photo, it's us who want to take a photo. I invite you to take a photo together."
They both looked at her in surprise at the same time, "Are you asking us to take a photo?"
"Don't you want to take a photo of your most beautiful moment and keep it? Today is the day you earned your first money. It is a day worth remembering.
I will definitely earn more and more in the future, and there will be more days, so of course I have to take pictures as souvenirs. "Lin Qingyan said to them with a smile.
In fact, her mobile phone can take pictures, but she doesn't dare to take it out and take pictures openly. But she could consider secretly taking a picture of her back, or taking a candid picture?
Wang Lanlan and Ye Yi looked at each other and agreed very much with what Lin Qingyan said. Of course, they had to keep a memory of their best years.
Several people parked their bicycles in front of the photo studio and locked the bicycles with small locks.
This type of 28-inch bicycle has a built-in lock, but the lock is very useless. The locks of bicycles of the same brand are similar.
Sometimes, you can unlock someone else's bicycle with the key of your own bicycle. This kind of useless thing makes people who own cars dare not park their bicycles casually.
Bicycles are big items these days, and when you go on the street you normally park them at fixed spots and have others watch them for a fee.
But they were just taking a picture and put it at the door of the photo studio, so the lock could still keep some people out.
Lin Qingyan took the lead and walked into the photo studio. The photo studio in the county town was not big, only the size of two rooms.
The middle-aged man sitting in the backstage swinging the camera saw someone coming in, looked up at the girls and asked, "What do you want?"
If such a question were asked in modern times, the store would definitely not be able to continue operating, but it was normal when it appeared in the 70s.
Going to a photo studio does not necessarily mean taking pictures. Some people go there to get advice, some go there to get photos, or even just to take a look. After all, taking photos is not cheap, only 1-2 yuan per photo.
If you want to print more photos, it will cost 5 cents for each additional photo. In that era when vegetables were sold for a few cents, this price was considered very expensive.
Many people only take a photo once or twice in their life.
Lin Qingyan had no other thoughts about her boss' question and replied directly: "We want to take a group photo, and then each of us takes a solo photo."
The owner of the photo studio stopped what he was doing and looked at them. They were a few pretty young girls with scarves around their necks. It seemed that they had no shortage of money for taking photos.
However, the price still needs to be agreed upon in advance, as taking photos requires film. If after taking the photos, someone thinks it is too expensive and doesn't want to pay, the film will be wasted. This has happened before.
So the boss told them: "Photos are 2 yuan each, whether it's a group photo or a single photo, it's 2 yuan. If you need to print it, it's 5 cents more for each print."
When Ye Yi heard the price, she subconsciously opened her mouth and said to Lin Qingyan: "Let's just take a group photo. I won't take a solo photo."
Wang Lanlan doesn't think so. She feels that her life will get better and better in the future. At worst, the money she earns today will be wasted and she won't lose anything.
So he advised: "Ye Yi, let's shoot together. We can pay for it ourselves and not let Qingyan pay for it."
Ye Yi thought about it and was about to nod in agreement when she heard voices coming from outside the door.
"A peasant is a peasant. Even if you become rich, you can't change the fact that you are a peasant. If you can't afford to take photos, why go to a photo studio?"
Ye Yi and others turned around and looked at the two girls who walked into the photo studio. Coincidentally, they had seen this girl before. They had seen her before at the state-owned restaurant. She also looked down on them for being such peasants and eating there, as if they were making the restaurant dirty.
Of course Lin Qingyan recognized them. She didn't expect that they had such a good relationship.
So he smiled and said, "Oh, I was wondering who it was, it turned out to be the young lady, I hope you are well!"
After saying that, he looked at Wang Lanlan and Ye Yi who were standing there, and deliberately said to them: "Why are you two still standing there? Why don't you come over to greet the young lady when you see her?"
Ye Yi and Wang Lanlan were very smart. They shouted together, "Miss, how are you? Greetings to you, Miss!"
The girl who was very arrogant just now turned pale when she heard this. No matter how stupid or ignorant she was, she would not dare to let anyone call her a young lady.
Her parents spoil her, as long as it doesn't affect their own situation. If it affects themselves, no matter how good her parents are to her, they will still skin her alive.
"You..." She pointed at Lin Qingyan and was so angry that she couldn't speak.
But the girl next to her said in a panic, "Comrade, please don't talk nonsense. There are no young ladies in this era."
It seemed like he was speaking in a supportive manner, but in fact he was pointing out the key point, as if he was afraid that others had not thought of this issue.
Lin Qingyan and others looked at her knowingly but said nothing.
His calm demeanor made the girl who was looking for trouble stomp her feet in anger, "Just wait for me, don't let me run into you next time."
After saying that, he pulled the girl beside her and ran out.
The owner of the photo studio, who had been silent the whole time, said to them in a deep voice, "Her surname is Wang. Both her parents work in the county. Her father is the director of the county party committee office, and her mother works in the Women's Federation. If you see her again in the county, stay away from her."
Lin Qingyan thanked the boss. They had never met each other before, but she looked down on them the first time they met. Then she started acting superior before she even met the person the second time.
I guess her parents are not good people either. People like this cannot be spoiled. They can't always avoid her and make themselves unhappy, right?
Besides, with the rate at which this person offends others, and with that girl next to her, she’ll be finished sooner or later.
"Boss, let's take one group photo and three individual photos, and then have three copies of the group photo developed." Lin Qingyan directly took out the money and gave it to the boss.
Ye Yi and Wang Lanlan stopped him, "One person pays for the photo."
"Yes, you can take the group photo, we'll take the individual photos ourselves!"
Lin Qingyan smiled and said, "If you want to take more photos later, you can pay for it yourself. It's my treat. I also made money today."
Ye Yi and the other two did not refuse. The boss had already put the camera in order and pointed at the set in the back, saying to them, "Which set are you using?"
Only then did Lin Qingyan notice the scenery behind her, which was the scenery of the bridge. The bridge looked very long, and ripples could be seen on the surface of the river.
Ye Yi and Wang Lanlan also saw it. They were obviously excited and asked the boss: "Where is this?"
"This is the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge." The boss said excitedly.
"Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge???" The two were obviously surprised and confirmed with the boss.
