Due to the relative shortage of grain and edible oil at that time, in order to ensure the supply of the market and meet the basic living needs of the people, the government promulgated the "Order on the Planned Purchase and Planned Supply of Grain" in 1953.

At the same time, the food standard is stipulated, and different rations are rationed according to different ages and different types of work: mental workers like Jiang Yan only have a maximum of 32 catties of grain per month according to the regulations. The monthly food supply for forging, pouring and porters was as high as 49 catties. The quantitative standard for edible oil is: two or three taels per person per month.

Compared with the grain and oil certificate, this food certificate is equally important.

The full name of this food certificate is the non-staple food shopping book, also known as the non-staple food book. It is linked to the household registration package and serves as the only proof for urban residents to receive consumable non-staple food and industrial products every quarter.

Without it, all non-staple foods, spices, and even matches, candles, and soaps would be gone, and their importance would be even greater than that of food stamps, meat stamps, and oil stamps.

After Jiang Yan thanked Sister Zhang after reading it, he put them away.

After seeing Jiang Yan put it away, the eldest sister said goodbye and left very politely.

Throughout the afternoon, after Jiang Yan cleaned up his office, he began to look at some information in the factory, and strive to know it in his heart, so that he could carry out his work.

When it's busy, it seems that this time flies quickly, and soon it's time to get off work.

When Jiang Yan came out, he saw a group of people standing at the gate waiting for him.

"Boss, did anyone bully you at work today." After seeing Jiang Yan, He Yuzhu spoke first.

"You think I'm going to a bandit's den! Wherever you go, you are bullied. Jiang Yan scolded He Yuzhu angrily.

"Boss, what kind of position have been assigned to you. Seeing He Yuzhu deflated, Xu Damao asked with a snicker. ”

"Acting Chief of the Technical Section. Later, he was in charge of in-house technology. ”

As soon as Jiang Yan said this, the surroundings suddenly fell silent, and after a while, he heard He Yuzhu shouting excitedly: "Boss, you are the section chief."

Hearing He Yuzhu's words, Jiang Yan looked at the little brothers who were following him, and they all looked at Jiang Yan with surprise on their faces.

"What the fuss about! Scare Lao Tzu, isn't he just a section chief? With you so loudly, the shock of Lao Tzu's ears hurts. After Jiang Yan finished saying this, he also kicked He Yuzhu.

"Boss, you're going to cover me in the factory in the future. Let's go back and publicize it, the boss is the first cadre in our courtyard, you don't see that these two masters are a group leader and show off their power as a whole, our boss is a serious cadre. ”

It was Xu Damao who spoke, and his voice was no less than He Yuzhu's voice. When he spoke, he was full of smiles, how did Jiang Yan look at this smile, how did he look like a flattering smile, like a living two devils.

"I'll tell you a few of you! Don't give me publicity in the courtyard, low-key, low-key understand. ”

"I'll tell you first, it's okay to cover you, we don't cause trouble, and we're not afraid of things, I have something to tell me."

"But I also warn a few of you, especially He Yuzhu and you Xu Damao. You two will remember for me, and give me less greed in the future. ”

"If you don't steal grains and don't harvest any cooking skills, it's all heresy."

"You can't touch the things in the kitchen, even if it's leftovers, and you Xu Damao, if you go to the countryside to show movies in the future, you are not allowed to take the local products of the villagers, and tell the boss what is missing, I will prepare it for you."

"Greedy for small and cheap and big losses, do you understand this."

"Okay, Boss, we'll listen to you." Hearing Jiang Yan's reprimand, everyone spoke in unison.

Jiang Yan heard the words of a few people, nodded with satisfaction, thought about it, took out the bill that had just been issued from his pocket, took out a pound of meat tickets and money from it and handed it to Xiao Liuzi and ordered: "I will go to the vegetable market in a while, buy a chicken, a fish, and vegetables, meat, and a few of us will go to the small courtyard to gather in the evening, just a few of us, don't give me too much mouth, do you hear." ”

Xiao Liuzi didn't take the ticket and money handed over by Jiang Yan, but said: "Boss, this is not appropriate, you have invited a meal, a few of our brothers have scraped together a little money, how about we go to Donglaishun in the evening!" ”

After listening to Xiao Liuzi's words, Jiang Yan thought about it, put away the ticket and money, and then said: "I'm also a little greedy for Donglaishun when you say this, okay, go to Donglaishun tonight, but I'll pay for it." ”

After saying this, Jiang Yan saw what Xiao Liuzi wanted to say, so he stopped him and continued to speak: "I have received the wishes of the brothers, I don't need you to pay, do you know what the boss's monthly salary is?" ”

Hearing Jiang Yan's question, everyone shook their heads in unison.

"Your boss, I was rated as an eighth-level engineer, and my salary was more than 100 yuan a month."

Hearing Jiang Yan's salary standard, everyone who needed it gasped.

"My good man, boss, your monthly salary is so high, I am only a tenth-level chef and only 27.5 yuan a month, boss, your monthly salary is 4 times that of mine."

"That's more than three times as much as mine." Hearing He Yuzhu's words, Xu Damao also said.

Service staff, the salary is 1-10 levels, the larger the number, the lower the salary, at this time He Yuzhu is only a tenth-level chef, so it is only 27.5 yuan per month.

Xu Damao is another salary standard, the lowest level of projectionists is level 6, and the monthly salary is 35.5 yuan.

"Alright. Don't be discouraged, just work hard in the future, where do I still have a few bottles of red wine, let's drink two bottles tonight. ”

As soon as they heard that there was red wine to drink, several people instantly became excited again.

"Little Liuzi, Zhuzi, I'll go back and get the rain and grandma's food in a while, and go back to change into civilian clothes and gather at the gate."

"Okay, Boss gets it."

Then the stone grabbed the labor protection supplies that Jiang Yan was carrying, and said, "Boss, I'll help you get it." ”

A few people walked all the way to the courtyard, passing by the climate of the vegetable market, Jiang Yan took them into the vegetable market to buy a chicken and some vegetables, and a few people carried these things directly back to the courtyard.

After returning to the courtyard, a group of them came directly to Jiang Yan's small courtyard, a group of people killing chickens and washing vegetables, and the actions were quite quick.

He Yuzhu boiled a pot of chicken soup in a casserole, and steamed a basket of two and noodle steamed buns, which were according to Jiang Yan's instructions, with more fine grain and less cornmeal, and cornmeal was only used to add color.

Xiao Liuzi fried a few ingredients, and after they made these things, they directly served them to Jiang Yan's living room.

Jiang Yan also said to Grandma Lu, changed her clothes, carried two bottles of red wine in her arms, and prepared to wait for Xu Damao at the gate of the courtyard.
