Chapter 22 Radio
Du Fei took it with both hands and immediately felt the heavy weight. This little guy must be about 25-6 kilograms, probably heavier than two ordinary house cats.
In his two lives, Du Fei raised an animal for the first time. He stroked Xiao Wu's fur, which was furry and warm. The touch was invincible!
At this moment, he suddenly understood why some people would be addicted to petting cats.
Once you get into it, you really can't let it go!
But at this time, I don't know if it was because Du Fei's hand was too strong, Xiao Wu made a "meow" sound, and a feeling of dissatisfaction came out.
Du Fei didn't care, but smiled, turned around and lifted Xiao Wu's chin and gently scratched it.
At this time, the cat, which was originally staring, immediately narrowed its eyes, with an expression of enjoyment on its face, and the unhappy mood disappeared.
"Little guy, I can't cure you." Du Fei laughed in his heart, and hugged Xiao Wu and petted him hard for a while, but he began to worry about what to give Xiao Wu to eat.
Looking at Xiao Wu's physique, he curled up into a ball as big as a washbasin, so he must eat a lot every day.
In this era, there was no cat food or anything like that. If there were cats or dogs at home, they would just feed them some leftovers.
"Why don't I go to the canteen tomorrow and tell Aunt Qian to add 10 cents a day to bring Xiao Wu a meal."
Du Fei thought as he put the cat down, went out to wash his hands and started cooking.
He rode his bike out twice at noon and in the afternoon, and now Du Fei is a little hungry. He just bought some rice, so he cooked some rice.
I don't know if it's a psychological effect, but the night he traveled through time, he went to a restaurant to eat rice, and he always felt that it was more delicious than the rice in the future.
There was no electric rice cooker, and Du Fei ate a lot of rice by himself, so it was impossible to cook rice directly in a big pot. There would be nothing left except the rice crust.
According to the memory of his previous life, whether it was steaming rice or sorghum rice, he would directly put the aluminum lunch box in the steamer.
Du Fei followed suit, cleaned a lunch box, washed the rice and steamed the rice.
He originally wanted to steam the rice in the pot and go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some food. There was not even a cabbage in the house except for the half jar of pickles.
Who knew that as soon as he opened the door, the cold wind and snowflakes hit his face, and it was snowing at this time!
This was the first snow in Beijing since the beginning of winter this year.
Du Fei immediately backed out, because he really didn't want to go to the supply and marketing cooperative in the wind and snow.
He simply went back to find half a scallion and fried some scallion oil later. It seemed to be quite fragrant to eat the pickles and the scallion oil mixed with rice.
While steaming the rice, Du Fei made himself a cup of tea, and while drinking the tea, he picked up the little black cat and stroked it.
For a while, it was very pleasant to drink tea and stroke the cat leisurely.
However, this wonderful life of drinking tea and stroking the cat was quite fresh to Du Fei at first, but it became a little boring after a while.
The house was too quiet, with only the humming wind outside the window and the gurgling sound of rice steaming on the stove.
Before crossing over, Du Fei had already developed the habit of turning on the TV when he got home. No matter if he watched it or not, he had to listen to the noise.
Now his family doesn't even have a radio, let alone a TV.
"How about buying a radio tomorrow?" Du Fei had this idea, and suddenly remembered that the original owner's family also had a radio earlier.
Although the price of a radio is not cheap, it is still a little worse than a bicycle, and radio tickets are not as rare as bicycle tickets.
More importantly, a radio is bought and placed at home, unlike a bicycle that can be ridden out every day to show off.
So relatively speaking, there are not many families with radios.
The three uncles in the courtyard, including Sha Zhu and Xu Damao, all have radios.
The original owner's family also had an old-fashioned radio.
It broke two years ago, and the electrician from the factory was not able to fix it, so no new one was bought later.
Thinking of this, Du Fei searched through the boxes and found the old radio at the bottom of the box.
Although it was broken, the radio was definitely a precious thing in this era. It was impossible to throw it away. It was wrapped in newspaper and placed in a box. .??.
This old-fashioned tube radio was not small, weighing more than 20 kilograms.
Du Fei took it out and put it on the table, peeling off the newspaper wrapped outside.
The solid wood shell, with two large metal knobs protruding on the black glass panel, looked 70% to 80% new at first glance!
In fact, it was no wonder. At that time, materials were scarce and people used everything preciously.
In order to reduce the loss of the radio, the third uncle's family was reluctant to turn the knob to change the channel, and only listened to one channel all year round.
Therefore, many things were used until they could not be used, but they still looked like new.
Although the radio that Du Fei found was not so weird, it could be seen that it was carefully maintained. Unfortunately, it was broken at the age of 18.
He found a screwdriver and opened the back cover of the radio.
After so many years, a thick layer of dust accumulated inside.
He reached out and touched the wires inside. The plastic skin was all aged and hard to the touch. A slight bend would cause a white mark to appear.
Du Fei frowned when he saw this.
With such aging, the repair value of this radio might not be very high.
However, he planned to take it to a professional repair shop tomorrow to have a look.
When the radio broke, the original owner's father only took it to the factory to have a look at the electrician. The electrician
fiddled with it for a long time and said it couldn't be repaired.
Du Fei knew that being an electrician in a factory was completely different from repairing household appliances.
But if the master who specialized in repairing electrical appliances said it couldn't be repaired, he could only consider buying a new one.
Du Fei made up his mind and put the radio into his personal space while thinking about where to find a radio repairman tomorrow. There are not many people who can repair electrical appliances these days.
However, to his surprise, when the radio entered the space, the blue light rotating around the light ball suddenly trembled.
Du Fei was startled and quickly took out the radio, frowning and wondering what was going on.
Thinking of the changes before and after Xiao Wu was put into the space and absorbed the white light, Du Fei couldn't help but think to himself, "Could it be that this blue light absorbed from the snuff bottle can repair or upgrade certain items?"
Thinking of this, he immediately took out a rice bowl with a broken stubble and put it into the personal space.
Sure enough! The blue light was aroused again and trembled slightly.
This undoubtedly verified Du Fei's guess.
Taking out the broken bowl and putting the radio into the space, Du Fei moved his mind and guided the blue light, which suddenly drilled into the radio.
Then a ball of blue light cocoon wrapped around the radio.
But this time, Du Fei just wanted the radio to work, and he didn't want to be like Xiao Wu, who upgraded from a sick cat to a leopard. If he received some foreign frequency bands and was caught as an enemy spy, he would have nowhere to complain.
Although it was very clumsy, Du Fei could confirm that his thoughts could control the white light ball and the attached blue light band in the portable space.
Sure enough, under his will, the blue light cocoon wrapped around the radio quickly converged and turned into a strip of light again to return to the light ball.
Comparing before and after, this blue light band consumed about a quarter.
