Rebirth after the 1950s

There was no snow, so I had to go to the city alone to see if I could sell some food or something.

Just like that, I spent two cents to get to the city. I went directly to the back of the military hospital and wandered around. I saw someone standing guard at the intersection and thought to myself, this is indeed a black market spot.

I turned around and entered the public toilet of the hospital, changed my clothes, put on makeup, and went to the black market with a backpack on my back. The two people standing at the door let me in without even asking. Once inside, it turned out to be another world. , everything is sold there, including food, and they are all complete, but I don’t plan to take such a risk.

But after looking around, I found that they were all three times more expensive than those at the purchasing station. First-class pork costs 0 yuan, compared with 7 per kilogram on the black market; third-class meat costs 2.1 per kilogram, compared with 0 on the black market; and an egg costs 58 to 1.74 cents. The black market costs 3~5 per pound; rice costs 0.09 per pound, while the black market costs 0.12 per pound; white flour costs 0.13 per pound, while the black market costs 0.39 per pound; coarse grain corn stubble costs 0.16 per pound, while the black market costs 0.48 per pound; red sweet potato costs 0.09 pounds per pound (sweet potato) ), coarse grains 0.27 per pound, black market 0.02 points per pound; japonica rice 0.06, black market 0.147 per pound; indica rice 0.441, black market 0.126 per pound; flour 0.378, black market 0.163 per pound, soybean oil 0.489, black market 0.78 per pound, matches 2.34, The black market price is 0.02 cents per box, and the black market price of salt is 0.06 cents per pound.

After looking around, I found that a kilogram of sweet potatoes is less than one cut, which means that the 1 kilograms of sweet potatoes in the space can be sold for less than 100 yuan.I'm going to stop selling it. It's too cheating.Now that you've come out, you can't go back empty-handed, right? If you don't want to sell sweet potatoes, you can sell eggs first.Others can tidy up the space in the evening and sell all the miscellaneous grains in the space, leaving only rice, white flour and cornmeal.

After saying that, he walked out of the black market and did not rush to the factory. Instead, he walked along an alley. When he saw a good-looking aunt, he walked up and asked: "Auntie, do you want the eggs I have here?"

"Daughter, tell me, eggs," the aunt grabbed my arm and asked excitedly.

"Yes, eggs"

"This is not the place to talk. You come with me." After saying that, the aunt looked back first.

"Oh." Then I followed the aunt and walked. On the way, I saw someone asking the aunt, "Aunt Cao, who is the little girl next to you?"

"Tell me, Xiaofang, she is my little girl who married into my cousin's house in the country. Isn't she going to the city to bring me some food?"

"Oh, that's it, then you are busy"

Soon we came to a separate small courtyard. The aunt said: "Daughter, my surname is Cao. Just follow me and Grandma Cao. You said you had eggs just now. I didn't lie to you. I urgently need these eggs. My daughter just I gave birth to a grandson, but everything is lacking in this era. This is not because my daughter was injured when she gave birth. The doctor said to make up for it, otherwise she may die when she gets pregnant next time."

"Grandma Cao, I..."

"Look, why am I, an old woman, talking to you, a little girl? By the way, my dear, how many eggs do you have?" After saying that, he wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.

"Grandma Cao, there are 200 eggs in my basket"

"So much, you are"

Seeing Grandma Cao's confused look, I quickly said: "Grandma Cao, my surname is Zhu, and my name is Zhu Cuicui. My family lives in the mountains. These eggs are from the past week. My father accompanied me here. This is not the case now that food is available." Are you ready? I'm thinking of exchanging these eggs for some money tickets or something so that I can get a wife for my brother."

"What kind of ticket does it cost? How much does it cost for an egg?"

"Tickets, any kind of ticket is fine, but if you give money, my dad said, because the black market now costs 0.09 to 0.12 an egg. My dad said it's not easy for everyone, so the tickets will be counted as 0.1 yuan each."

"Okay, then I'll take all of them. It just so happens that the weather is getting cooler now. I'll give half to my daughter and I'll pickle the rest."

"Hey, come on, you count."

As she said this, Grandma Cao took the basket at the door of her house and started counting. After a while, she said, "Exactly, 200. I'll get you money and tickets."

"These 200 eggs weigh about 20 pounds each. I'll give you 20 yuan. Here are five pounds of food stamps, two pounds of meat stamps, three pounds of snack stamps, two pounds of sugar stamps, ten feet of cloth stamps, and two industrial coupons. This The industrial model is very useful”

"Oh, I listen to you"

At the end of 1961, the state issued industrial bonds.Industrial coupons are issued to working personnel in proportion to their salary income, with an average of one coupon for every 20 yuan of salary.The range of goods purchased with industrial vouchers is wide, including towels, blankets, wool, handkerchiefs, batteries, shafts, iron pots, aluminum basins, aluminum lunch boxes, enamel basins, enamel cups, enamel bedpans, thread gloves, iron-shell kettles, Bamboo shell thermos bottles, sports shoes, umbrellas, cotton rubber shoes, sewing needles, sewing thread, oilcloth raincoats, laminated raincoats, artificial cotton products, nylon underwear, leather shoes, alarm clocks, radios, belts, knives and scissors, imported blades, etc. luggage, chocolate candies, and cigarettes, tea, liquor, etc.

In this way, at the end of the day, I went to several places, such as steel plants, coking plants, textile mills, and flour mills. These big plants all had money and lots of tickets, and they didn't dare to sell more. , I sold 200 eggs in each place. It was already past 5 pm when I got home. I hurriedly cooked and waited for my parents to come back for dinner.

I went close to the space and counted some items inside. I sold them for 100 yuan in one day.There are 25 kilograms of food stamps, 10 kilograms of meat stamps, 6 kilograms of snack stamps, [-] kilograms of sugar stamps, [-] feet of cloth stamps, [-] industrial stamps, two cotton stamps, both weighing one kilogram, three soap stamps, and There are two kerosene tickets and some other tickets, but many of them are about to expire. I will have to wait until next Sunday to go to the city and spend all these things.

Seeing that it was still early, I started to calculate how much food I had bought before:

客厅里：大米原先有2000斤现在还有1800斤；白面原先有2000斤现在有1700斤；玉米面、玉米碴子、红薯面、高粱面、荞麦面原先各有500斤现在还有200斤；红豆、绿豆、黄豆、芸豆、黑豆、蚕豆、豌豆、小米原先有200斤现在还有50斤；黑米、粳米、高粱米、荞麦、红米原先有100斤现在还有30斤；面条原先有200斤现在有180斤；糯米、糯米粉现在还有100斤没有动。原先放在客厅里的各种调料也都有所
