ps: This chapter is here in ^_^ the evening

On the target plane, in mid-June 1943, in Yan'an, Shaanxi Province, northwest of the Yanhuang Continent, Li Xiaolu was in front of his barracks, discussing things with the squad leader.

"Squad leader, what's that, you see it's almost the middle of the month, let's exchange the saber captured by our class, okay?" Li Xiaolu said.

"Xiao Lu, I said you were confused? Saber is not a thing that is very common, it is a symbol of honor for our class! Tian Wenhan, the squad leader, replied.

"What kind of squad leader, next time! As long as there is a battle next time, I will definitely try my best to capture another one for you, will you? Li Xiaolu continued.

"I said Xiao Luzi, what do you want to do, you have to exchange our saber for nothing?" Another fighter in the squad asked.

"Brother Ma, my eldest brother is getting married, I thought, don't you send him some good things back to save face!" Hearing others ask, Li Xiaolu was a little embarrassed to explain.

"Oh? Your eldest brother marries a daughter-in-law? This is a happy event! But I remember you must have a lot of merit coins in your hand? The warrior surnamed Ma then asked.

"I want to exchange more things, and I want to exchange for a large item, but the merit coins are not enough!" Li Xiaolu replied.

"Squad leader, Xiao Luzi's brother getting married is indeed a big deal, why don't we redeem the saber?" After learning about the specific situation, the warrior surnamed Ma also suggested.

"Okay, Xiao Lu, you go to my bedside and take out the war knife, and the whole class goes to the exchange department together!" The squad leader Tian Wenhan is not a person with a string, and he still has a clear distinction between a dead saber and his brother.

"Great!"

"Let's go!"

"Let's go, by the way, there's nothing new on the exchange desk!" When the other fighters in the squad heard this, they all smiled and followed to join in the fun.

So here is the merit coin and the exchange department, what is going on? In order to improve the enthusiasm of the soldiers to fight devils, and some of his own broken thoughts, Comrade Wang Fan put forward the idea of "trophy exchange department" after solving the problem of weapons and equipment of the Red Party army and consuming supplies, that is, for the trophies captured by the soldiers, let Yadi help, and set up exchange tables in different categories, such as a little devil steel helmet to exchange 5 jiao meritorious coins, a little devil diary 5 yuan meritorious coins, a little devil telescope to exchange 2 yuan meritorious coins, etc. The merit coin here is a reference to the later generations of RMB, the use of later generations of coated paper and some other high value-added paper printing, the style is exquisite, the color is bright, the feel is unique, except for Wang Fan other forces can not imitate the roots, the face value is 100 yuan, 10 yuan, 1 yuan, 5 jiao, 1 jiao (copper yuan), 5 cents (big copper), 1 cent (small copper). Since there are no weapons involved, that is, the 38 big cover and the Wang Ba box pistol are not exchanged, so Li Xiannian and others will make trouble with him.

Why put forward the meritorious coin, this is Wang Fan's own consideration, the first is now the implementation of a unified rationing system within the base area, and the common people are bartered with each other, which has the advantage of avoiding the economic and monetary war launched by the enemy, but it is so easy to form for a long time, and then the planned economic model at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China is born. Once everyone is accustomed to the distribution of various materials by organizations, the market economy will easily shrink into a pool of stagnant water, and then want to activate the people's awareness of the market economy, I am afraid that many people will be reluctant to take the first step because of fear of risks. The second is that with the counteroffensive in the future, the expansion of the base area, how to deal with the newly laid down provincial and municipal economic problems is a big trouble, the experience of later generations is to print a lot of various kinds of liberation tickets, but the promotion is not too smooth, mainly because the value of the paper money itself is a big problem. Because Wang Fan has enough copper ore in his hands, the 1 jiao, 5 cents and 1 cent are copper coins, which can be suggested to take the merit coin as the core of the value system to lay a good foundation for the unification of the currency value after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

Of course, in order to prevent the soldiers from competing for their teammates' trophies on the battlefield because of the exchange of benefits, the exchange is carried out by the whole group of a squad, and the loot captured by each person in the squad is divided equally after being exchanged for merit coins, of course, it can also be used uniformly in a squad, and the specific choice depends on the referendum of all the soldiers in the squad. The advantage of this is that, on the one hand, it enhances the feelings of the whole class of soldiers advancing and retreating together, and on the other hand, in case there is a fight for loot on the battlefield, it can also be resolved by the squad leader, and the probability of a dispute is much smaller. Of course, in order to maintain the fairness and impartiality of the exchange, the exchange point is responsible for multiple people, one person is private and two people are public, so as to supervise each other.

At the same time, once it is discovered that the embezzlement of other people's trophies is discovered, the squad leader to which he belongs will be dismissed, all illegal gains will be confiscated, and a fine of ten times the merit coin will be imposed (deducted with the future trophies), and the company to which he belongs will also be notified to the whole army for criticism, and the company commander, political commissar, and platoon commander will all have major demerits, lose money and lose people, so the soldiers' self-control has been very good, and they have been implemented for 2 months, and there has not been a single incident of stealing chickens and dogs.

Continuing from the previous article, Li Xiaolu and squad leader Tian Wenhan came to one more loot exchange point. The saber was handed over.

"Huh? Little devil Shaozuo's saber, this is a good thing, 100 yuan merit coin, can you exchange it? A staff member at the redemption point said.

"Well, let's change it!" Squad leader Tian Wenhan glanced at the saber again, and then said.

"Okay, the merit coin should be whole or zero?" After hearing the answer, the staff at the exchange point continued to ask.

"Zero, 10 yuan for 1 person! Xiao Luzi, now you see what you need to exchange? After Tian Wenhan answered, he asked Xiao Luzi again.

"Well, squad leader, I have already thought about it, I originally had 25 yuan merit coins that have been useless, this time I can get 10 yuan for 100 yuan, so I have 35 yuan merit coins, which can be exchanged for a bicycle." As he spoke, Xiao Luzi pointed to the large list of exchange goods nailed to the wall in the room.

"Oh? Bicycle, I'll take a look, oops, it costs 30 yuan! Xiao Lu, you really love your brother, this time for him hemorrhage! The warrior surnamed Ma said after reading the catalogue (the exchange of goods is illustrated with simple diagrams, so that illiterate people can read and understand).

"Hehe, who let my brother get married, this bicycle is used, and a small set of tire repair tools is given, which is very practical!" Hearing his comrades-in-arms praise himself, Xiao Luzi was a little embarrassed.

"Yes, Xiao Lu has a heart, but just buy it for your brother, what should you do with your sister-in-law?" Tian Wenhan said, "Comrade, please exchange another set of bed sheets (three-piece set) for me!" Xiao Lu, this is my congratulatory gift to your brother and sister-in-law! ”

"Yes, exchange for another mirror, count it in mine, a little heart!" The warrior surnamed Ma continued.

"Haha, and me, exchange for 2 pieces of transparent soap, Xiao Lu, I'm sorry, last time I exchanged things for my family, and the merit coin was almost used!" The third fighter said.

"Thank you, thank you!" Seeing everyone take care of themselves like this, Li Xiaolu's heart was warm.

"You're welcome, you're a member of our class, not an outsider!" When the other warriors heard this, they exchanged some other small items to express their gratitude, and then replied.

A day later, Lijia Village.

Located in the west of Yan'an, Lijia Village is a small village of about 100 households, and Tong Wenbin was the liaison officer who was stationed in Lijia Village two months ago. Speaking of Tong Wenbin, he originally studied in Beiping, after the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, he witnessed many tragedies when Beiping fell, and later walked through the middle of the Yanhuang Continent around 1939 and came to Yan'an to become a Red Party soldier. Originally working in the art troupe, and later after Wang Fan appeared, there was a trend of supporting the border area (supporting the border area), Tong Wenbin signed up and was assigned to Lijia Village as a liaison, responsible for the reading, literacy, enlightenment and assistance of the village chief in the distribution of materials.

Tong Wenbin just arrived in Lijia Village, but it caused a sensation, because the whole Lijia Village is located in a remote area, there is no teaching gentleman, and many dolls want to read and read and have no chance. In order to welcome Tong Wenbin and make him happy and rest assured, dozens of families worked together to clean up an uninhabited cave in the east of the village, cleaned up the dust in the house, pasted new white paper, tidied up the yard with weeds, and prepared a large amount of hemp firewood to facilitate Tong Wenbin's cooking.

Tong Wenbin, who came from afar, felt very happy and happy, and the simple actions of the villagers touched him and made him like this remote mountain village. He unloaded his clothes, books, kerosene lamps and other luggage from the bicycle distributed by the organization to facilitate his work, and moved out a small blackboard (similar to the IKEA one) and chalk, erasers and other tools for lectures from the iron kuang behind the bicycle little by little, and soon a small and practical lecture hall began, there were not many students, only 7 people, plus some adults who were interested in listening to the lectures at night after doing farm work, Tong Wenbin's lecture content was very simple, teaching everyone how to write their names and numbers, Simple addition, subtraction, multiplication and division operations and some common words and other enlightenment education.

Today is June 18th, and it is also the happiest day for the whole village, because today is the day when the local government sends transport teams to the villages to transport salt and other necessities.

"Toot toot!" With the sound of noisy engines, a farm three-wheeled motorcycle (Guo Degang's language: dog riding rabbit) slowly drove along the rural dirt road.

"Wow, wow! Here, here! Seven children burst into smiles on their faces, waving their arms and hands violently, shouting at the farm tricycle.

"Third aunt, you're here!" A woman in her 30s greets another elderly person at the edge of the school, and when she hears the expected sound of a farm tricycle, everyone but the men who are working in the fields come out of the cave.

"Ergouzi, go to the field and call your father and mother to come over!"

"Yes, I'll go!"

"Li Dapang, come on, your fourth uncle's family has gone to work in the back mountain, and you are tired of running!"

"Understood! Don't worry, I'll go! ”

"Get out of the way, get out of the way, don't block the road, the car won't be able to drive in for a while!"

The sounds of greetings, shouts, and fights rang out for a while, and the quiet mountain village ushered in the long-lost bustle and noise.

After more than half an hour, the whole village gathered in front of the village one by one. Village chiefs Li Dabo and Tong Wenbin stood at the front, checking supplies and checking accounts with two people on three-wheeled motorcycles.

"Ahem! Let's be quiet, let's follow the previous practice, first each household will receive this month's salt, monosodium glutamate, vegetable oil and transparent soap, and then according to the name called, and then receive the things sent back by relatives in the army, understand? Uncle Li, the village head, twisted a wisp of goatee on his chin and said loudly.

"Got it!" The villagers, who were chatting with each other just now, immediately quieted down and said when they heard that it was time to receive their things.

"Okay, let's start now, the first Li Dashu's family..."According to the order in which they were called, more than 100 families quickly received salt, monosodium glutamate and other items that every family must have every month.

"Okay, let's follow the list and distribute the items sent back to each family by relatives in the army!" Uncle Li, the village head, continued when he saw that the first process was over.

"Ahem! Then I'll start calling my name," Hearing the words of the village chief Uncle Li, Tong Wenbin, who knew that he had the item of distributing materials within his duties, was not polite, and said: "Li Lanshan's house, 10 catties of white flour, 5 catties of vegetable oil, plus a pair of scissors sent back!" ”

"Eh, okay!" The person who was called stepped forward, and in the envious eyes of others, happily put away the gift sent back by his son in the army.

"Li Simin's house, 10 catties of white flour, 5 catties of vegetable oil, plus a kitchen knife sent back!"

"Li Shuihe's family, 10 catties of white noodles, 5 catties of vegetable oil, plus a cotton coat sent back!"

These families with relatives who have joined the army will receive 10 catties of white flour and 5 catties of vegetable oil every month, in addition, since Wang Fan set up a trophy exchange point, they may also receive other gifts from their families every month.

"Li Dalu's family, 10 catties of white flour, 5 catties of vegetable oil, plus send it back, oh my God, why are there so many?! Plus a bicycle, a set of bed sheets, a vanity mirror, two pieces of clear soap, a set of knives, a pair of scissors, a set of needles and threads, and three taels of green tea. As Tong Wenbin read more and more things, the surrounding crowd couldn't help but buzz into discussions.

"Aunt Zhang, what do you say Li Dalu's younger brother has made great military achievements, how can he have so many things, and there are also bicycles!"

"Sister of the Li family, I don't know, tsk, so many good things! In particular, what kind of tea can only be drunk by officials in the county town in the past? Blessed is it to marry Li Dalu's daughter-in-law this time!"

"yes, yes!" Many chimed in.

Just when everyone was talking, Tong Wenbin's voice suddenly became low, "Li Shoushan's family, please mourn, Li Shoushan was unfortunately shot and died because of the battle, and now I hereby posthumously recognize Li Shoushan as a revolutionary martyr, issue a martyr certificate, and every month the local government will distribute 100 catties of white flour, 20 catties of vegetable oil, 10 catties of sausages, 10 catties of ham, and 1 catty of sugar to your family!" ”

Suddenly, I heard that there were people who joined the army and sacrificed, and the people around them unconsciously quieted down, and there were sad people, especially Li Shoushan's family, the cry came immediately, but there were also many people's eyes flashing, after all, in the case of cornmeal and yellow buns as the staple food, the material impact of 100 catties of white flour, 20 catties of vegetable oil, 10 catties of sausages, 10 catties of ham, and 1 catty of sugar every month is still quite huge.

After each family finished dividing their things and returning to their respective homes, that night, one family was lying on the kang while discussing the distribution of materials during the day, and for a while the family could not sleep, talking late at night, until Li Dalu's wedding arrived the next day.
