Wang Weidong was instructing the workers to clean the floor in the workshop. From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Lou Xiao'e poking her head at the door.

He thought about saving money.

"Chief Zuo, I still have something to do, so I'll leave the workshop to you." Wang Weidong smiled and looked at the old man Zuo, "When the operation officially starts, I invite you and Brother Patriot to go to Donglaishun for a meal."

"Dong Laishun? That's a good relationship!" Old Man Zuo narrowed his eyes and did not refuse.

"Then it's agreed!" Wang Weidong had already planned to invite Mr. Zuo. He just took advantage of this opportunity.

Old Man Zuo is an old man from the Logistics Department, and even the director of the department gave him three points.

The logistics department of the steel rolling mill is the real power department, responsible for the supply of workshop materials, payment of workers' wages, and application for welfare benefits and subsidies.

Even the Publicity Department is managed by the Logistics Department.

After chatting for a few words, Wang Weidong quickly left the workshop.

"Are you anxious about waiting?" He saw Lou Xiao'e rubbing her calves, as if she had been waiting for a long time.

"Don't worry, you are busy at work, how can I hold you back." Lou Xiao'e smiled happily.

"Let's go save money!"

The two left the steel rolling mill on bicycles.

Although it is working hours, employees are not allowed to go out according to regulations.

But when the security officers at the gate saw the two of them, they just pretended not to see them.

The two went straight to the bank on Xizhimen Street.

The outer wall is made of blue bricks, the inner wall is whitewashed, the ground is paved with terrazzo, and there is an iron fence in the middle.

As in later generations, I am on this end and the bank clerk is on the other end.

The overall layout is somewhat similar to that of a supply and marketing cooperative, but Wang Weidong observed that there was no slogan on the wall that said "No beating of customers without reason."

Surprised, he looked around.

A "security guard" wearing a khaki uniform was staring at them warily.

Seeing Wang Weidong looking around, he touched the Type 56 semi-automatic rifle slung on his shoulder.

The black muzzle of the gun emits an icy cold light under the sunlight, reflecting in Wang Weidong's eyes.

I bet there are bullets in his gun.

Wang Weidong felt a shiver in his heart, showed a bright smile to the "security guard", and then queued up with Lou Xiao'e honestly.

The girl at the bank is very professional and has very fast hands. She can count the banknotes and "swipe them".

After a while, it was Wang Weidong's turn.

"Comrade, I save money!"

"Comrade, you are here just in time, our bank is holding a savings event with prizes." The girl from the bank did not have the indifference of the supply and marketing cooperative aunt on her face, and introduced with a smile: "Every customer who saves money will be qualified for the lottery.

"

lottery?

Wang Weidong's first reaction was, could this be a routine?

In later generations, it was not uncommon for depositors to go to banks to deposit money, and the deposit certificate turned into an insurance policy.

However, I immediately thought that in this day and age, if I did something like this, I would probably be arrested and paraded through the streets.

That puts me at ease.

The little girl at the bank saw Wang Weidong's hesitation and immediately understood that this young man had never deposited money before.

Immediately impatient to explain.

Through the little girl's words, Wang Weidong gradually understood.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the people became wealthy. In order to encourage savings, banks introduced "savings with prizes" and "savings with prizes and stickers" certificates of deposit.

Savings with prizes mean that depositors can get a number if they deposit 1 yuan.

If you win the jackpot, you can get fifty yuan.

The second prize gets ten yuan, the third prize gets five yuan, and the fourth prize gets one yuan.

After maturity, the principal and interest can be withdrawn regardless of whether you win the lottery or not.

The prize-based decal savings is an upgraded version of the prize-based savings, which is a bit like the later generations’ partial savings.

Depositors purchase "flowers" (decal vouchers) every month and affix them to their passbooks.

The denominations of decal vouchers are generally divided into ten yuan, five yuan and one yuan. There is a number printed on it.

After maturity, the principal and interest can be withdrawn with the passbook and discount.

On the 1st of every month, the bank will announce the winning numbers in the daily newspaper.

This is much more interesting than the bank deposit certificates of later generations.

Wang Weidong purchased Happy Balls countless times in his previous life, winning at most ten yuan.

He decided to try his luck.

"Comrade, save three hundred yuan, the kind of savings with bonus stickers!" Wang Weidong took the banknote from Lou Xiao'e and handed it behind the iron fence.

"Three hundred yuan?" The little girl from the bank took the roll of banknotes and was a little dazed.

These days, everyone is not rich. Most of the ordinary savers save one or five yuan.

Otherwise, banks wouldn’t have gone to great lengths to launch bonus deposits.

However, as a bank employee who has seen countless banknotes, she quickly reacted.

After a dazzling operation and "Bah, bang, bang!" a few official seals were stamped, the passbook was handed out.

"Since you deposited 300 yuan when you opened the account for the first time, I helped you apply for the entire account."

Whole household? What do you mean?

Wang Weidong looked at the word "whole household" printed in black on the passbook and was a little confused.

He turned his head and looked at Lou Xiao'e. Lou Xiao'e shook her head blankly. She had never saved money.

Lou Bancheng's family property consists of gold, silver and jewelry.

"Ahem, ahem, comrade, what does this whole household mean?" There will be many opportunities for deposits in the future, and Wang Weidong decided to find out.

"According to bank regulations, passbooks are divided into three types: whole account, half account, and quarter account. This is related to the amount of money you deposit. Depositors of the whole account will be received by a dedicated manager when handling business

."The little girl at the bank was very enthusiastic.

Uh, isn't this a VIP customer?!

understood!

After Wang Weidong thanked the little girl, he took Lou Xiaoe out of the bank.

He handed the passbook to Lou Xiao'e.

"Take it, housekeeper."

"Housekeeper?"

Lou Xiao'e was startled for a moment, then woke up and pursed her lips with a happy smile.

Housekeeper, this word sounds really nice.

Wang Weidong was about to ride his bicycle back to the steel rolling mill, but was stopped by Lou Xiao'e.

"Brother Wei Dong, you will also be a cadre in the future. It seems inappropriate to wear work clothes and uniforms again."

Wang Weidong looked down at the blue and black uniform on his body.

Although it is quite clean, it has turned white after washing and there are still a few holes in the corners of the clothes.

It should be replaced.

But...the money has already been saved.

Wang Weidong was thinking about taking out the banknotes issued by the system from the ring warehouse, but he was pulled into a small corner by Lou Xiao'e.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Brother Wei Dong, I have money."

As Lou Xiao'e spoke, she took out a roll of banknotes from the lining of her cotton-padded jacket and handed it over.

Wang Weidong took the banknotes that were still warm and counted them carefully.

More than fifty yuan.

"This is my private money. You have saved all your money. We are a family, so naturally I have to use my money." Lou Xiao'e's dark eyes reflected the brilliance of the sun.

"Okay, I agree!"

Wang Weidong had a bad appetite recently and couldn't eat hard food, so he put the money into his trouser pocket without saying anything.

This move made Lou Xiaoe unstoppable,
