Chapter 188 Opening a warehouse to collect grain

Mr. Teach continued:

"Reporter: So food stamps are equivalent to currency? Will it depreciate over time like the banknotes issued by the government?

Chief: Yes, food stamps are in some way the equivalent of currency when they are issued! When the government issues banknotes, the value of banknotes depreciates because the quantity issued exceeds the corresponding physical goods. But food stamps don't, it has a very clear one-to-one correspondence, you sell a pound of grain and get a pound of food stamps. No matter what it ends up buying, the food it corresponds to has not changed, it is just in the warehouse! As long as the Modao Regiment is not wiped out, the food stamps are always valid! However, will the Modao Regiment be wiped out? Just look at the results of this year! Over time, there is a good chance that food stamps will increase in value!

Reporter: Will it add value? How to add value?

Regiment leader: What is the price of the hemp money issued by Emperor Shunzhi and Emperor Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty? At least ten times its own value! Because it's not just a currency, it's a witness to history! Food stamps will definitely become a label of the times like these hemp money!

Reporter: Food stamps are just such a simple piece of paper, will the devil also come to print, won't it become the devil's wedding dress?

Leader: That's a good question! Now I will tell you about the anti-counterfeiting system of food stamps. ......" The following paragraph explains how to distinguish between real and fake food stamps.

"Folks, it seems that the Modao Regiment is governing society with all their hearts and fighting devils! Although I use food stamps to buy everyone's food, I think it is much more reliable than the government and the devil! You can sell food with confidence! "The old teacher finished reading the newspaper and believed the food stamps. The first one handed over more than 100 catties of grain and received the corresponding food stamps!

"Folks, take advantage of this old gentleman's food stamps, and I will tell you about the identification of food stamps. Everybody look here, there's a string of numbers here, this is the code! A total of eleven digits, and four letters ......" Chen Xingguo once again explained to everyone the matter of identifying fake tickets.

"Sir, just now the newspapers said that the food stamps can be exchanged for the ocean, where can I exchange them?" One citizen asked.

"There are exchange counters in the chambers of commerce in every township, and everyone can go and exchange them at any time! Today, the people of the Chamber of Commerce are also here, and everyone can redeem them on the spot. Chen Xingguo said.

"Good! Then I'll pay the grain now! This person handed over more than 200 catties of grain on the spot, received a grain stamp, and exchanged 200 catties of cash on the spot!

People saw that it could really be exchanged for cash, and the number of people who paid grain gradually increased. People have said that they will continue to deliver grain after the wheat is harvested and dried.

After a busy day, he collected more than 7,000 catties of wheat and exchanged more than 240 yuan in cash! The whole is okay, people believe in food stamps!

"Although the grain harvested is not much, people have left some food stamps, which is a good start!" Guo Ming, president of the Chamber of Commerce, said.

"Now although we have raided the homes of some traitorous landlords and confiscated their land. But a large area of land is still in the hands of some landlords who have not been traitors, tomorrow I will go to Feng Yuanwai's house to have a look, and only by taking these landlords' old wealth can I complete the task of collecting grain! Chen Xingguo said.

"His soldiers all have guns, you go and be careful!" Guo Ming reminded.

"Don't worry, it's not going to war, he still dares to make a mistake. Besides, if you go to collect grain and not grab grain, there will be no problem! Chen Xingguo said confidently.

After a night of silence, Chen Xingguo took the two militiamen to Feng Yuanwai's house early the next morning. Feng Yuanwai didn't dare to slack off, and went out to greet him in person.

"Hello Sir Chen! It's a great time to be here today! Inside please! Serve tea! Feng Yuanwai said politely.

"You're polite, I'm here to harvest grain today! I believe you have heard about this year's grain collection policy, please support it! Chen Xingguo's posture was very low.

"Hmmm! Saw it in the newspapers! Feng Yuanwai said, "Since the Modao Regiment took charge of Quyang, it has indeed brought many benefits to people. A stable environment, easy taxation, and in addition to a few traitors, can be very happy! But is this year's grain collection policy ......?"

"There is something to say outside the staff! Our Modao group pays attention to seeking truth from facts! Chen Xingguo said. These big families have some concerns, and rightly so!

"Then I won't hide it! The policy requires that only one year's rations be kept and the rest of the ministries turn in. I have no food in my hand, and I panic! Once you encounter a big flood or a small drought, isn't this blind? Feng Yuanwai said.

"It's too much to worry about! You see, we are buying grain, not snatching grain, as long as the food stamps are in the grain, you will get it, and no one can take it away!

On the contrary, food is the most dangerous in your hands, and devils will turn to big families like you to snatch it! Although there are militia and troops to protect it, it is difficult to guarantee that the devils will not come to a surprise attack! When the time comes, I won't even take my life. Isn't that the reason, you say? Chen Xingguo said patiently.

“…… That's right, but isn't it guarded by your Modao Regiment now? The devil still dares to come? Feng Yuanwai was puzzled.

"You underestimate the madness of the devils, we are guarding this is right, the devils will not easily have a large army to attack, but a small force is invincible! Once infiltrated and we are far away, how long can a dozen of your soldiers stop? Chen Xingguo said bitterly.

“…… Good! I'll leave a few stones enough for the family's rations, and I'll send the rest of the food to the Chamber of Commerce tomorrow!" lest you toss far away! Feng Yuanwai still figured it out, holding food stamps is safer than taking food.

"That's right! I'll be waiting for you tomorrow at the Chamber of Commerce! Chen Xingguo got up and said goodbye. Go to the next big house to lobby.

After a busy day, he lobbied more than a dozen large households, seven of which were willing to pay grain, and several others expressed their consideration. The effect is not bad! During the war years, it was normal for people to be worried!

In the Jingzhou devil gendarmerie, Takahashi Saburo once again called Lu Hongfu and Cao Guangren, two hardcore traitors, over.

"It's been many days since the wheat was harvested, how are you doing with your grain harvesting task?" Saburo Takahashi asked.

"Report to Taijun, only more than 600 stone of wheat was collected...... There are so many tasks this year! ......" Lu Hongfu said with a twitch of his head.

"Yaga! What about you? Saburo Takahashi scolded.

"I only received more than 500 stones......" Cao Guangren also replied with a twitch of his head!

"Yaga! A bunch of rubbish! Takahashi Saburo panted, "The 100,000 stone task only collected a few hundred stones, how can the rest be completed?" ”

"......" the two bowed their heads and were silent.

"You personally went to the boundary survey of Qingyang City, Quyang City, and you have to find out which one is a big household, where the grain is hidden, and how much there is! When I came back, I grabbed it from the joint gendarmerie team! Do you understand? Saburo Takahashi ordered.

"Hey!" The two looked at each other and snickered with joy! This is to rob it! It's much easier than them going from village to village!
