Chapter 88: Two Little Lostrars
Squeezed and squeezed, and finally squeezed to the root of a wall where no one was around. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Let's take a break here. Xiang Gang unloaded the bamboo basket, found two strings of branches, dusted off a big stone in the corner of the wall, and pulled Qingling to sit down.
Qingling was puzzled, but seeing so many people at the door of the vegetable market, she really couldn't muster up the courage to squeeze. Hengzhu won't be back until the afternoon, so I'm not in a hurry, so I'll wait for a while.
Sure enough, the lady had predicted correctly, and after a while of sitting down, the crowd began to disperse - because the fish were sold out.
Not all of the fish they caught really wanted to take home to eat, and a few of them looked like they wanted to change something else, and the straw rope carried a white silk nearly two feet long, retreated to the corner and began to look around.
One of the middle-aged men saw Xiang Gang and Qingling sitting at the base of the wall, as well as the big bamboo basket in front of them, guessing that it was a small couple from the countryside, pretending to come over to rest, and after approaching Xiang Gang and the two, he rubbed his hands nervously and whispered: "Big brother, look at my white silk, I just grabbed it, it is fresh......
Xiang Gang didn't pretend to be stupid, he just wanted to exchange some Jiang Xian from others to taste, and said straight to the point: "I'll give you money for a pound of fish." In addition, you will be given two tofu tickets and five industrial coupons. ”
How can a tofu ticket be worth as much as a fish ticket, let alone two, five are not rare to exchange. Can it be an industrial voucher......
The man hesitated a little, glanced at the bamboo basket covered with a black cloth, originally wanted to change the eggs, did he look away? Didn't this young couple come to the city to sell eggs?
"I'll exchange it with you!" At this time, a young woman a few steps away from them walked quickly to Qingling, looked left and right, and said in a breath like a bullet: "My fathead fish bought it for seven catties and three taels, six cents and five catties, I paid four yuan and seven cents and five cents, you give me four yuan and eight cents, and give me two tofu tickets and five industrial coupons." ”
She wants to knit two couple sweaters for herself and her husband before the Chinese New Year, and take her husband back to her parents' house to visit relatives and save face. But the yarn has been in phase for a long time, but the industrial coupons in hand are still missing three. The fish can be grabbed again next time you have a fish ticket, and you don't know how long you will have to wait if you miss the industrial coupon.
Without saying a word, stuff the straw rope carrying the fish into Qingling's hand, and there is a posture that I will change with you if you don't change it.
Now the middle-aged man was in a hurry, grabbed Xiang Gang's arm and said that he wanted to change: "My white silk is much fresher than her fathead fish, and the weight is light, one is less than three catties, you don't have to pay so much money......"
Xiang Gang smacked his mouth. He did fall in love with the white silk in this person's hand at first, but such a big fathead fish only needs this vote, so he can't help but make trouble. There are only two tofu tickets, and although there are still some industrial coupons, they are kept by him to buy daily necessities for the girl.
Qingling thought about it, took out the only half-catty white sugar ticket from her small purse, and asked the young woman: "There are not so many tofu tickets, is it okay to exchange them for white sugar tickets?"
She rarely uses white sugar now because there is better wild honey. Besides, this ticket will be available if you don't have to.
"Okay, okay!" The young woman was pleasantly surprised, and hurriedly took it in her hand, and took a closer look, it was indeed a sugar ticket, and she could buy half a catty, but the deadline was relatively close. Fortunately, this thing is not like meat - you have to eat it if you buy it, and the paper package is sealed tightly, and it is not a problem to hide it until the New Year. The thought of returning to her parents' home to visit relatives and bring something with her with her face spread an excited smile.
The middle-aged man sighed, the tofu ticket and the sugar ticket were placed in front of him at the same time, and the fool knew which one to choose. It's a pity that people said that there is only one white sugar ticket, and it has been given to someone, so you can't go up and grab it. Black | City | Delivery | Yi Ben is expressly forbidden, and he will not be able to do well if he makes a big fuss. Fortunately, there are still five industrial vouchers, which are somewhat satisfactory.
So, the deal was negotiated. Three groups of people avoided the crowd and handed over the money with one hand and delivered the goods with the other in a secluded alley outside the vegetable market.
Qingling and Xiang Gang took out ten industrial coupons, two tofu tickets, one sugar ticket, and six yuan and six cents, and harvested two fresh river fish, and looked at each other, both very happy, as if they had picked up a big bargain.
It can only be said that these two people have big hearts and don't value money. If Zhang Youkang and his wife are there, they will definitely oppose it. Spend six dollars and six cents on two fish?
You must know that the most profitable meat factory in the county, the monthly salary has only risen to 20 yuan, buy two fish, spend nearly ten days of wages, and post so many coupons and tickets, this is not a loser!!
Xiang Gang and Qingling two-
A person with a high income will have a monthly allowance of 48 yuan, and there will be an additional subsidy for going out on a mission, and if he does not go out of a task, he will have three meals a day in the army's canteen, so there will be a surplus every month, and it will be difficult to say in three or five years.
The other knew that it was not easy to save money, like she sold a wild ginseng, and only had more than ten yuan in income. Usually, there is no other income, so you can only wait for the production team to share the food and money at the end of the year. In other words, the more than ten yuan will last until the end of the year, and how can you spend six yuan at once without cutting the meat. It's just that when I think of the sum of my past and present lives, I haven't eaten authentic Jiang Xian, and the excitement of wanting to taste it overshadows my heartache. Six dollars and six cents slipped out of my fingers.
Fortunately, there is still a bamboo basket of herbs that has not been sold, and after selling it, the money will come back.
So, in the next step, the two of them carried the fish and strode towards the acquisition station.
In fact, the purchasing station is not an independent department, but a store under the supply and marketing cooperative, which is under the jurisdiction of the supply and marketing cooperative, as well as the department store and the grain and oil store.
The acquisition store is on Chaoyang Street, diagonally opposite is the department store of the supply and marketing cooperative, a street corner and a street. The grain and oil store is on the next street, but they don't have any food to buy or sell anyway, so they won't go to the grain and oil station this time.
The gate of the acquisition station is very large, and there are two signs hanging on the left and the right.
One piece reads "Acquisition of Non-Staple Foods".
For example, when the Chinese New Year is approaching, the production teams of the communes pull the chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep sold by the supply and marketing cooperatives, first of all, they have to come here to get the strips, and then send the things to be sold to the backyard of the supply and marketing cooperatives, where they will be subject to various inspections by quarantine personnel to ensure that there are no problems, and tie a piece of red cloth to the feet of the chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep to prove that they have been "inspected". These chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep were pulled onto large trucks and transported to the planned area.
The other is a sign that says "Scrap Acquisition". There are many types of waste, furniture, household goods, clothing, books, wine bottles, chicken and duck feathers, orange peels, toothpaste skins, long hair, ...... Only you can't think of it, and you can't sell it without you.
Many people from poor families who can't afford to wear new clothes will come here to exchange for a few well-fitting second-hand clothes. There are also many children who squat here after school to buy their favorite villain books.
