Du Yuewei looked at Xie Tian's confident appearance and questioned: "You tell us, what solution do you have, if you can solve the questions I just had, then I will take the lead in exchanging all my materials into rice tickets." ”

Xie Tian smiled indifferently and said: "First of all, you are talking about the depreciation of rice tickets, since it is the general environment of the grain standard, I will use rice tickets as a currency, and the core evidence of the purchasing power of rice tickets is food, for example, all the food materials in charge of the security zone are about seven tons, and you must know that the proportion of rice noodles, vegetables, and meat in these seven tons of materials is different. ”

"For example, according to the exchange ratio I just had, these materials are converted into ten tons of rice, then I deduct a part of it as regular consumption, and only issue five tons of rice tickets, even if all these five tons of rice tickets are in your hands, and you all come to me at the same time to cash, I also have enough materials to exchange, and don't forget, the materials you use to exchange for rice tickets from me have increased my material reserves year-on-year, so that my material volume will further increase, Do you think this can ensure that the purchasing power of rice tickets does not depreciate? ”

Du Yuewei nodded and said, "If you can do it, you can!" ”

Xie Tian said with a smile: "Then this will solve your first two problems, and your purchasing power will be absolutely guaranteed, so that whether it is the rice ticket you exchange for materials or the rice ticket you earn back with your labor, there will be no depreciation, because I have sufficient grain reserves to ensure that every two rice tickets I send out have corresponding substantial reserves." ”

Du Yuewei asked again: "Then how do you ensure anti-counterfeiting?" ”

Xie Tian laughed and said, "This one is even simpler. Immediately, Xie Tian asked Du Yuewei: "Do you really think that I will cut out a piece of blank paper, and then use a pencil to write 'one pound of rice' on it as a rice ticket?" ”

Du Yuewei didn't speak, but looked at Xie Tian and waited for his next words.

"First of all, the general control building where we are located is not only the general control center of the entire power plant system, but also the main office building of the power plant, which has computers, color inkjet printers, I will let people use photoshop to design the layout and corresponding denomination of the rice ticket, and secondly, we have mastered the seal and steel seal of the power plant, this, I think no one of you can imitate except us, right?"

Du Yuewei said again: "This doesn't mean absolute fairness, what if your internal personnel are guarding and stealing?" Print a few more rice tickets, and the loss will have to be shared by those of us. ”

"Impossible." Xie Tian waved his hand and said: "It is impossible, my people, are the people I trust, if you don't trust, I can hand over the process to different people to be in charge, responsible for printing is a batch, responsible for stamping is a batch, responsible for stamping another batch, after all this is completed, by the printer and the last person to stamp the steel to check the quantity, in this way, you have no doubt, right?" ”

Du Yuewei had nothing to say, and nodded after a while and said: "Okay, as long as you can guarantee that what you say is fulfilled, when your rice ticket is printed, I will be the first to exchange my personal materials for rice tickets!" ”

"Okay." Xie Tian smiled faintly: "Then I'll leave this first time to you!" ”

Xie Tian's economic reform is a very new thing for the security zone, even the people around Xie Tian don't know that he has such a huge plan brewing in his mind, but in this way, everyone can also see the benefits, first of all, Xie Tian can put more idle materials into his own hands, in this way, he can greatly increase his control over all of them, which is equivalent to grabbing everyone's lifeblood; Secondly, the problem of material storage for all people in the security zone has been solved, and it can be exchanged for rice tickets, which is easy to carry and safe, and more convenient to use; After all, in the case of the grain standard, it is not necessarily necessary that the currency and reserves must be 1:1, even if it is 1.5:1, as long as there is no rush, the reserves of materials can be easily turned over.

However, Xie Tian did not really plan to overprint rice stamps, after all, the scale of the security zone is not large now, only a few hundred people, if five tons are issued, each person has an average of ten kilograms of supplies, how is this possible? Those who served in the army did not have any reserves except for those who had just added the search activities, and all of them relied on the safe zone to feed, and the survivors were relatively scarce.

Xie Tian first concentrated all the color printers and A4 paper in the entire power plant to ensure that these equipment would not flow out, and then, Xie Tian found Li Xiaohe's group of women, a girl who had previously done graphic design, and designed several different denomination rice ticket layouts through photoshop software on a computer.

The denomination of the rice ticket is divided into: one tael, two taels, five taels, one catty, five catties, ten catties of these six denominations, each rice ticket in addition to the exquisite pattern, only the corresponding denomination is written, the girl asked Xie Tian: "Brother Xie, is this currency called rice stamps?" Or do you have a separate name? ”

"Let's call it a rice ticket, nostalgia." Xie Tian remembered the various grain and oil stamps at home in his childhood memories, and said: "Look up and write: Fengcheng Security Zone Management Center, and here is another line of small print: General rice stamps in the area, and finally write the specific denomination in capital letters on the pattern in the middle." ”

After the typesetting was determined, Xie Tian decided to print the rice stamp to the size of an ordinary five-cent banknote, which is just enough to cover the round steel seal and the oval seal.

After the rice ticket typesetting out, several machines began to print at the same time, after printing, the number of statistics and tailoring by a special person, the cut rice ticket by Zhao Ziye and the other two girls took turns to stamp on it, and finally handed it to Song Hui for the stamping of the steel seal, the rice ticket with the steel seal has been made, and the final rice ticket made again to check the quantity, consistent with the number of production, it means that there is no problem in the middle.

In one day, a large number of rice tickets were printed, the total quantity was five tons, of which one tael, two taels, five taels, and one catty of rice tickets were more denominations, and the number of five catties and ten catties of denominations was relatively small, after the printing was completed, Xie Tian moved the safe in an office to the warehouse, and all the rice tickets were stored in this safe, which was managed by Xie Yufei, and if the survivors came to redeem, Xie Yufei led several of her helpers to weigh the materials and exchange the rice tickets.

At eight o'clock the next morning, it was Xie Tian to announce the start of the official acceptance of rice ticket exchange, Du Yuewei really spoke, and brought her own bag of supplies to exchange, because yesterday she said in public that she was going to be the first person to exchange rice tickets, so no one grabbed this first prize with her.

Du Yuewei's supplies were counted, one pound of rice and two taels, a few packets of instant noodles, weighing about one catty tael, and two bottles of canned luncheon meat, with a net content of two catties.

Du Yuewei looked at Xie Tian with a provocative expression and asked, "What kind of exchange method should there be between my instant noodles and rice?" I'm afraid 1:1 won't work, right? Anyway, it's much better than just eating rice. ”

"By weight, 1:1.8, love is not changed." Seeing that Du Yuewei deliberately made things difficult for herself, she raised her eyebrows and said casually, anyway, instant noodles are indeed much better than rice, even if the price is at a loss, in the end, no one wants to exchange rice for it, so it's a big deal to eat it yourself, anyway, it's not much.

"1:1.8......" Du Yuewei hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay, changed!" ”

Immediately, Xie Yufei first checked the packaging and shelf life of canned food and instant noodles, and after confirming that there was no problem, she used a calculator to calculate the total weight of all Du Yuewei's materials exchanged for rice, and after Du Yuewei confirmed, she handed over a small stack of rice tickets with the same amount.

Du Yuewei was slightly surprised for a moment when she saw that the rice ticket was beautifully made, and the seal and steel seal were clear, and she also understood in her heart that it would be so delicate in the last days, and it would be difficult for people without equipment and technology to forge it, so she nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's done well." ”

Xie Tian smiled and said, "Of course. ”

Du Yuewei glanced at Xie Tian, but she was angry at what Xie Tian had done to her before, and now she didn't expect to know how to evolve from him, so she didn't have to grovel to him anymore, she turned her head and was about to leave, but was stopped by Xie Tian.

"Miss Du." Xie Tian asked sincerely: "I don't know if you are interested in coming to me as a financial consultant and accountant?" ”

Du Yuewei looked at Xie Tian in surprise, I don't know how Xie Tian would think of providing a job for herself, originally Du Yuewei thought that a woman like herself could not find a job in the safety zone, first of all, the army does not want women, secondly, she can't cook, and the soldiers who specialize in the safety zone can make do with Xie Tian They can make do with washing clothes, but there are more people who know how to wash clothes than themselves, and they can't do it at all, and they don't know any skills such as welding and electrician, the only one who can point taekwondo, and was criticized by Xie Tian for not being practical at all, and now, Thank you for taking the initiative to give yourself a job, and it is in the financial aspect of giving full play to your strengths? Is he really so kind?

Xie Tian looked at her with doubts on her face, and said with a smile: "The issuance of rice tickets is equivalent to the issuance of a currency, and you also know that I don't know much about economics, if you are willing to help, I am naturally very welcome." ”

Du Yuewei thought for a moment, both wanted to agree, but also wanted to refuse, wanted to promise that her own materials were really not much, and she couldn't sit back and eat, if she could get a job in the safety zone, at least her own ration problem could be solved, her own materials could be saved, and she might be able to exchange some other materials and necessities with others in the future, but when she thought that this was the job that Xie Tian had to arrange for herself, she began to struggle in her heart.

After a long time, Du Yuewei told herself in her heart: Filling your stomach first is the right thing! Gritting his teeth, he asked Xie Tiandao, "How much salary?" ”

Xie Tian smiled: "Given that you are a high-end talent, eight taels a day." ”

"It's only eight taels?" Du Yuewei blurted out: "You asked me to be the so-called consultant, and I only give eight taels of rice a day."

"Is it less than eight taels?" Xie Tian asked rhetorically.

Du Yuewei reacted at this time, this is the end of the world, eight or two meters is already a lot, in addition to enough food for herself, there can be some surplus every day, but when she thinks of herself as a high-achieving student, the economic benefits created every day are only eight or two meters, she feels unusually unfair in her heart
