Chapter 19: Transactions (3)
Lin Zhiyuan's gaze fell on Su Yi, this girl was a little surprised at first, but she quickly covered it up, didn't she know the common sense he said?
It doesn't matter if she knows it or not. Lin Zhiyuan couldn't help but be anxious, and asked Su Yi in a flat tone: "I don't know how many food stamps, oil stamps, cloth stamps, and soap stamps you want, Xiao Su? If you have these stamps, how are you going to exchange them with me? How much can you give for the price of this white rice?"
"One pound of grain stamps, one city foot of cloth stamps, two taels of oil stamps, for half a catty of white rice; one soap stamp, also for half a catty; if there is a meat stamp, one catty of pork stamps, one catty for rice." Ten industrial coupons, exchanged for three catties of rice. If you have enough tickets and coupons, you can make up another dollar per catty of rice. Otherwise, three yuan and eight pounds will not be missing. ”
Lin Zhiyuan interrupted Su Yi: "Xiao Su, you can't change your method! Ordinary commodity grain account, one person only has one pound of meat tickets for a month, two taels of oil tickets, and it is not enough to eat by himself, where can I take out the excess in exchange?"
"As for the cloth tickets, they are not provided on a monthly basis, but on a quarterly, semi-annual and annual basis. I'm lucky, the administrative level is high, and this year I have the supply of five city rulers, and I'm afraid other people don't have it yet. ”
"Industrial vouchers are issued on the basis of basic salary every month, and only about 10 yuan are issued each. Nowadays, anyone who buys something produced by a factory has to ask for industrial coupons, such as bicycles, watches, sewing machines, radios, etc., even if it is a pot or a knife. Nowadays, there are many people who exchange industrial coupons on the black market, so if you go out and inquire about how much grain can be exchanged for an industrial coupon? Xiao Su, your method of exchange is too insincere. ”
"I don't care what other people change, in my case, that's how it changes. Su Yi was resolute: "If you think it's not cost-effective, we can not change it." I'll go down and look for it, and someone will definitely be willing to trade ...... with me."
"What are you going to do!" Lin Zhiyuan's eyelids jumped, blocking in front of Su Yi, "Exchange with others, the tickets and coupons you want will definitely not be exchanged much, it is better to exchange them with me." ”
Lin Zhiyuan planned to suppress Su Yi's price at first, but he didn't expect Su Yi to be too fine, and after he found that he couldn't lower the price, he showed that he still had more tickets to exchange with Su Yi, and wanted Su Yi to get a discount. "I still have match tickets, kerosene tickets, sugar tickets, cigarette tickets, wine tickets, and shoe tickets, how are you going to exchange these tickets? If I count more tickets, can the price be lowered again?"
"I don't smoke or drink, what do I do with cigarette tickets and alcohol tickets? I don't have any children at home, and sugar tickets don't appeal to me. I have someone at home to make shoes, and I don't need ...... for shoe tickets."
Nowadays, there are many people who can make mille-feuille cloth shoes, as long as she has a cloth ticket, she buys cotton cloth and asks someone to help make it, and it costs a few cents at most. When Su Yi was buying clothes in a ready-to-wear store before, he heard the boss say that as long as there is cloth. Now for three or five cents, you can ask someone to help make a pair of cloth shoes.
"At most, you can only make cloth shoes, not leather shoes and rubber shoes. Xiao Su, you are a scholar at first glance, although I don't know where you work. But you can't just wear cloth shoes to work, you have to prepare a pair of leather shoes. If you can ask someone to send you such good white rice, there will definitely be no shortage of money at home. It's better to exchange shoes with me and get a pair of cowhide shoes to wear. Don't let your colleagues laugh at you behind your back, aren't you?" A woman of Xiao Su's age loves beauty and vanity the most, and she is willing to spend money on herself.
"Thank you, big brother, for thinking about me. I still don't want shoe tickets. Tell me, how much of the tickets I want, how much can you take out of each? If you can come up with enough tickets and money at this time, I will give you this bag of rice right away. Otherwise, don't delay me in doing business, I'll go down and look for it, there will always be someone willing to exchange with me. ”
"I didn't come out specifically to exchange tickets and people for food. Now, how can you take out the tickets you want at once? In this way, Xiao Su, you and I will sit in our hotel, and my uncle will invite you to a meal for free. By the time you're done eating, I'll have almost ready my tickets. What do you think?"
"Okay. Su Yi was not afraid that Lin Zhiyuan would lie to her or rob her things. She could knock Lin Zhiyuan down with two whips.
Moreover, Lin Zhiyuan, a hotel secretary, is also a well-known figure in Songjiang County, so how could he start to rob him for the sake of ordering a small amount of rice? Now that there are so many public security officers and soldiers in Songjiang County, if he provokes a crime at this time, I am afraid that he will be arrested and brought to justice before he even escapes from the county seat. Lin Zhiyuan is not so stupid.
Lin Zhiyuan took Su Yi to a farmhouse a few hundred meters away from the black market, where he would leave his bicycle every time he went to the black market. Lin Zhiyuan rode a bicycle all the way to carry Su Yi and her rice, and chatted with Su Yi if he had nothing to say. "Xiao Su, you are so bold, just follow me like this, you are not afraid that I will sell you. ”
"Don't be afraid. You look like a serious and nice person. ”
"Huh. Lin Zhiyuan was slapped by Su Yi's sycophant, and he was so happy. began to brag to Su Yi about his history of struggle. This is a topic that Lin Zhiyuan never gets tired of talking about, and when he meets people, he likes to brag a few words about how hard he was back then, and how he worked hard from a primary school apprentice to get to where he is today.
Halfway through his story, he went to the state-run hotel.
Lin Zhiyuan stopped locking the bicycle, Su Yi glanced at his watch, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon, no wonder she was hungry. If she hadn't eaten two more large meat buns in the morning, she would have fainted from hunger.
It was already past lunch time, and there were no customers in the restaurant, only a few employees sitting together eating melon seeds and gossiping.
Lin Zhiyuan said to the outside world that Su Yi was his distant relative, so he came to see him, led Su Yi into the door, and let her sit at will, "Xiao Su, what do you want to eat?" ”
"Simple meals are fine. Thank you, Uncle Lin. Lin Zhiyuan and Su Yi have exchanged names on the road.
"Do you have any taboos?"
"Nope. I don't pick anything, I can eat anything. ”
"That's done. You sit first. Lin Zhiyuan asked someone to cook for Su Yi, fried a leek egg, and cooked a bowl of cabbage and tofu soup.
He went back to his room, first counted his tickets and industrial coupons, and then found a few employees in the restaurant to make up for it, and finally exchanged Su Yi's twenty catties of rice for only ten catties of grain stamps, six city feet of cloth stamps, forty industrial coupons and twenty yuan.
After the transaction, both parties were quite satisfied.
Lin Zhiyuan told Su Yi: "Xiao Su, uncle still has a lot of tickets in his hand, and there are more than 30 industrial coupons left, do you have any extra white rice of this quality? I still need twenty or thirty pounds of rice like this. ”
"Uncle, how can white rice of this quality be so easy to get now? I was sick for a while before, and my relatives at home said that millet porridge nourishes people, and asked me to get some rice to boil porridge and drink. Just these twenty catties, I also entrusted a lot of relationships, and it took a little money to get it. As a result, I was reluctant to eat it when I got it back, so I kept it. You know that I am from the north, and I am not used to eating rice, and I have to exchange tickets and coupons for relatives in the countryside, so I will give you love. ”
