Chapter 526: 143: My son has gone abroad, he is so amazing! _2

“Let me take a look at the camera.” Ni Yang continued.

The employee handed over the camera to Ni Yang.

The Nikon FM2’s body is indeed quite compact, it has very clear pixels, and can take both black and white and color pictures.

Ni Yang made the payment to the employee after confirming that the camera was alright.

Stepping out of the store, Ni Yang randomly took a few shots of the street, then turned to Ni Cuihua and said, “Mom, I’ll take a picture of you and Yunyun too.”

“There’s nothing worth photographing.” Ni Cuihua was a bit embarrassed.

“Just one picture, it’s no big deal.” Ni Yang lifted the camera and took a shot.

Ni Yang then put the camera around Ni Cuihua’s neck and took little Ni Yun from her, ” Mom, can you take a picture of Yunyun and me?”

Ni Cuihua laughingly said: ” I don’t know how to.”

Ni Yang replied, “I’ll teach you, it’s very simple.”

Cameras from the eighties only had two functions, taking photos and recording videos. Ni Cuihua being an intelligent woman, learned it in a single attempt.

“Yangyang, move a bit to the side, and Yunyun, give us a smile.”

Little Ni Yun immediately broke into a grin.

After taking the picture, Ni Cuihua exclaimed, “People nowadays are really capable, they even invented cameras!”

Ni Yang laughed, “Cameras were not invented recently, they’ve been around since the late Qing Dynasty. The first one was just a light-proof box. In 1906, American George Shiras was the first to use a flashlight, and in 1913, a German man by the name of Oscar Barnack developed the world’s first 135 camera.”

Ni Cuihua exclaimed in surprise, “So cameras existed even before I was born?”

“Yes.” Ni Yang nodded.

Ni Cuihua had only known about farming in the first half of her life, she was completely unaware of China’s rapid development. If it hadn’t been for her family making her work in the fields to earn work points, she might have had her feet bound.

After buying the camera, Ni Yan went to four noodle restaurants and a milk tea shop, collected the day’s earnings, and went to deposit it at the bank.

“Miss Ni has arrived.” The teller was already familiar with Ni Yang.

“Sister Tian.”

The counter lady, Tian Caixia, was 22 years old, a little older than Ni Yang.
