"To say that this Jiang Laosan's family is really miserable, it is not easy, my son entered the post office in the town, ate commercial grain, came out, but died young!" An old man with a long beard sighed. Jiang Laosan is Jiang Guoqing's father, ranking third among many brothers. Jiangjia Village is mainly a family with the surname Jiang, and there are also several outdoor surnames, such as Li, Zeng, He, etc.

The so-called commercial grain is the commodity grain hukou, that is, the urban hukou, also called the non-agricultural hukou, and the grain and oil relationship is particularly important when the hukou is moved.

Of course, this is a product of history. At that time, in the era of planned economy, there was a shortage of all kinds of materials, and food had to rely on food stamps. For commercial grain accounts, the state will issue a certain amount of food stamps every month.

In addition to food stamps, there are also various stamps, such as oil stamps, pig, beef and mutton stamps, chicken, duck and fish stamps, all kinds of egg stamps, sugar stamps, soy product stamps and vegetable stamps. Tickets for clothing and goods are even more varied, ranging from undershirts, vests, and shoes to handkerchiefs, soap, tissue, laundry detergent, matchsticks, and more. Some valuables, such as electrical appliances, bicycles, and watches, are hard to find.

In conclusion, there are many types of tickets that involve various fields. What kind of goods are purchased with the corresponding ticket, and the number is indispensable. Without a ticket, even if you have money, it won't be sold to you! In order to manage these various tickets, some local commercial bureaus have also set up ticket management offices, and special personnel are responsible for the issuance of tickets. Tickets are required for everything you buy.

Therefore, it was a very honorable thing to be able to eat commercial grain and iron rice bowls at that time.

Another uncle said: "Yes, the hopes of a large family have been dashed, especially unfortunately, there is no seed left!" ”

A village man said: "Leave a wife alone in the empty house!" ”

An offspring said: "Hey, hey, uncle, I heard that it was Li Yiping from the same village who killed Jiang Guoqing?" ”

"It's not that guy! Anyway, everyone is saying that it was that guy who killed him, otherwise, why didn't he even go home and disappear? ”

"The dog said, if you kill someone, you will abscond! I don't know when this baby offended him on National Day! ”

"I don't know."

"Hey, I know a little bit of the inside story!"

"What's the inside story?"

"It is said that Li Yiping has liked Qiao Xiaomei since he was a child, and now he has married her on National Day, so he is jealous and hateful, and the young man is too impulsive, and he will start when he finds an opportunity, completely ignoring the old men of the two families!"

"Alas, now the Guoqing family and the Li family, I'm afraid they won't get along with each other anymore, originally, they are two families who have a good relationship!"

"Isn't it?"

……

Hearing a group of villagers discussing in private, Shi Yanfeng and Hu Hongbin went over to investigate. Regarding the matter of love killing, Shi Yanfeng knew it a long time ago when he was in the later life. It was precisely because of the capture of Li Yiping that he himself was cleared. But he also stayed in prison for many years, and soon after he came out, his grandfather died of this shady tree, and then the family lost in the political struggle and soon declined.

"Uncle, has Li Yiping ever been back?" Shi Yanfeng approached the bearded old man and asked.

The old man glanced at him and said, "I haven't come back, anyway, no one in the village has seen it." ”

Later, a few more people were asked, but no one knew Li Yiping's whereabouts, and through the villagers, they learned that the town police station had already sent several groups of people to inquire, and they were still waiting for it yesterday, but there were no clues.

Hu Hongbin said, why don't you go to Li Yiping's house and ask his parents, maybe there are some flaws? Shi Yanfeng nodded, and then, the two came to Li Yiping's house.

This family was deserted, and in the face of Shi Yanfeng and Hu Hongbin's interrogation, the other party's parents were naturally squeaky and refused to tell the truth.

Hu Hongbin didn't give up and continued to interrogate, but Shi Yanfeng walked away and wandered around the yard blindly, and suddenly, his eyes fell on a strange plant that was drying on the stone slab in the corner.

The leaves of this bush are papery, oblong-lanceolate, two-rowed, very special in color, an iron-green color, slightly purple on the margins and middle ribs, with rounded, erect stems, and a few small light white stamens blooming on them.

This thing, famous in later generations, is called Dendrobium, that is, Ironbark Maple Bucket, which was very popular for a while, and the price has increased hundreds of times.

It is mostly distributed on the semi-shady and damp rocks of the mountains at an altitude of nearly 1,000 meters, especially in the shade of the cliffs, and the ancients often hung the cliffs or archery to collect. Dendrobium officinale is perennially subject to the aura of heaven and earth, absorbing the essence of the moon, as the best health preservation, since ancient times, it has been favored by the nobles of the palace.

Dendrobium officinale has a unique medicinal value, the Qin and Han dynasties of the "Shennong Materia Medica" recorded that Dendrobium officinale "the main injury, paralysis, lower qi, replenish the five internal organs, labor and thinness, strengthen yin, long-term service thick stomach"; The Taoist medical classic "Daozang", written more than 1,000 years ago, listed Dendrobium officinale as the first of the "Nine Great Immortal Grasses of China"; In the "Compendium of Materia Medica", Li Shizhen commented that Dendrobium officinale "strengthens yin and improves essence, thickens the stomach and intestines, replenishes internal deficiencies, calms stomach qi, grows muscles, removes shocks, and prolongs life with a light body"; Folks call it "life-saving fairy grass".

However, this kind of thing, most of the fake in later generations, even if it is true, it is often artificially cultivated, the year is shallow, and it does not have such a good curative effect as the legend.

Shi Yanfeng drank and stayed up late in his previous life, and his body collapsed, and a girl once gave him this, but now he is staring at that herb with burning eyes, not because he is greedy for money, but because, as far as he knows, in Yunwu County, only Niujiao Mountain has found wild Dendrobium officinalis. And artificial cultivation is now almost invisible.

Niujiao Mountain, with an altitude of nearly 1,000 meters, is the highest mountain in Yunwu County, and is named after two solitary peaks, one on the left and one on the right. It is the place where Li Yiping hid in his last life.

Li Yiping's parents are old, how can they climb that kind of peak, let alone go to the cliff to collect this wild "fairy grass"! So, where do these Dendrobium plants come from? It's very clear.

Shi Yanfeng smiled slightly, remained silent, turned around, and returned to the house, and Hu Hongbin was still asking the two old men some things, the two old men had already confessed countless times, and their mouths were strict, no matter what Hu Hongbin asked, they all said they didn't know, which made Hu Hongbin have a feeling of having nowhere to put his mouth.

"Okay, Lao Hu, the Jiang family is about to have a funeral, let's go over and have a look." Shi Yanfeng walked over, patted Hu Hongbin on the shoulder, and motioned for him to leave, and then the two said goodbye to Li Yiping's parents and left.

As soon as they left, the old parents of the Li family immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Mother Li wiped a handful of cold sweat from her forehead and said, "This surnamed Hu, there are too many problems, I was really worried just now, if I leak my mouth, Ping'er will suffer!" ”

"Eh~, don't worry about this, although the one surnamed Hu is powerful, I always feel that the one who wanders around the yard is even more terrifying. boy, you don't think that young man sees anything, does you? ”

"Hey~, I'm worried, what can I see, don't worry! I cleaned up all the footprints and didn't leave anything behind. ”

They didn't know that the inconspicuous clump of dendrobium had already betrayed them, the so-called hundred secrets and one omission, but even if there was no dendrobium bush, Shi Yanfeng could find a second excuse.

On the way, Hu Hongbin complained and asked Shi Yanfeng why he didn't let him interrogate him more.

Shi Yanfeng said: "Those two old men love their sons, and they are old and sophisticated, so they can't ask anything famous at all." He smiled as he spoke.

Hu Hongbin was taken aback, reacted, and shouted: "Okay, Brother Shi, you shouldn't have seen something a long time ago, right?!" ”

Shi Yanfeng briefly talked about his speculation, and at the same time, he also gave Hu Hongbin a bit of science, what is Dendrobium.

Hu Hongbin was dumbfounded, is this okay? That, my brother is too knowledgeable at this time, right?

"Then we'll go now!" Hu Hongbin can't wait, gearing up, he already wants to make meritorious contributions!

Shi Yanfeng shook his head: "Don't worry. Let's attend the National Day funeral first! ”

When the two came to Jiang Guoqing's house, the funeral had just begun, and the two followed the large army to the mountains. Nowadays, in rural areas, most of them are still practiced burial.

Although, as early as April 27, 1956, 151 senior cadres of the party and the state, including Mao, Zhu, Liu, Zhou, and Deng, signed a petition at the Central Work Conference advocating the implementation of cremation after death, leaving only ashes, not keeping remains, and not building graves. However, funeral customs formed over thousands of years can not be changed overnight, and burials have been very common for decades. This phenomenon was not basically eradicated until July 1997, when the country. The Ministry of Funeral Affairs promulgated and implemented the "Regulations on the Administration of Funerals", which put forward the guidelines for funeral management: it is necessary to actively and step by step to implement cremation, reform burials, save funeral land, eliminate bad funeral customs, and advocate civilized and frugal funerals. It summarizes the main points of China's funeral reform over the past 40 years. Of course, this is only for the Han Chinese. For some ethnic minorities, a unique funeral culture is still preserved.

After Jiang Guoqing entered the ground, Shi Yanfeng and Hu Hongbin bid farewell to the army and marched to Niujiao Mountain.
