Luo Xuan rushed to the frog market, wandered around randomly, and finally bought 10 pounds of meat stamps for 50.2 cents per pound.
There are some urban workers or members of the production team who plan to arrive at their homes at what time they need to prepare wine to entertain guests.
They will start frugaling their food and clothing in advance and sell their food stamps and meat stamps to other places.
Waiting until the month when they need to serve wine, they will go to the market again, pinch their fingers, and buy some food stamps and meat stamps.
Because everyone doesn’t have enough meat stamps or food stamps on hand.
If you do this, you won't let the bills expire in vain in your own hands.
therefore,
The Frog Market is like a reservoir. Every time the market opens, you can find people buying and selling various bills in it.
Now that Luo Xuan's family is building a house, the demand for meat stamps and food is relatively large.
As for the food and poultry and livestock in his own space, Luo Xuan planned to wait until later.
After all, now that I have money in my pocket, I can still buy these things in the market.
If more than a year passes, I'm afraid that no matter how much money I have in my hands, I won't be able to buy even half a catty of grain if I beg my father to tell my grandma.
This time I came to the frog market.
As always, Fatty Gu ran to the market to purchase various supplies, and Luo Xuan easily sold him the eels and mushrooms.
Then use part of the money from selling mushrooms to buy meat stamps and food stamps at the market.
As for that tube of spring water.
Because Liu Fugui hadn't bothered to go into the mountains to catch fish yet, he couldn't receive the money for the time being.
Luo Xuan planned to wait until he had a little more money and take time to go to the county seat.
Try to find all the mice and buy some jade to recharge the space.
After wandering around the market for several hours, Luo Xuan didn't see anything special.
Instead, I saw Ye Erniang, huddled in a corner, selling soybeans.
In fact, during this period, soybeans were also a very rare item, and their price was much higher than ordinary grain.
Take rice, for example. If you have food stamps, you can buy a pound of rice for only 1.75 cents.
But soybeans can be sold for 2.6 cents a pound even if they have food stamps!
Tofu is a meat dish for rural people, and it can be regarded as a meat food for poor people. It can provide people with a lot of protein.
But what makes people feel very strange is that making tofu actually does not have a high technical content.
But people in this period rarely make tofu at home.
One reason is that there are still relatively few members who can produce a lot of soybeans at home.
Commune members only have one or two at most private plots in their homes, where they also need to grow corn and vegetables.
How can there be so much land for everyone to grow soybeans?
Everyone just planted a little bit of soybeans, red beans, black beans and the like in the corners of their private plots and around their own yards.
When the beans are ripe, many people can't wait to take some edamame back to cook and eat.
Even if you can wait until after the harvest.
Most of the commune members would fry the soybeans and serve them as snacks for the children, or to supplement nutrition for the main labor force in the family, as a drink.
therefore,
It is definitely very rare for a family like Ye Erniang to be able to accumulate 40 kilograms of soybeans in one go.
No one makes tofu very often, and there is another important reason: in the production team, adults basically have no time to rest.
There are 365 days in a year, and the production team has a tight schedule for everyone, and the production time will generally not be less than 350 days.
During the day, I worked hard in the field of the production team.
When you get back home, how much time and energy will you have left to grind the stone mill and grind the tofu?
That is to say, there are special "tofu houses" next to the "vegetable production teams" in towns.
And when they produce tofu, they also produce it according to the indicators, and they will never produce extra tofu for everyone to eat.
The fresh and non-staple food stores of the supply and marketing cooperatives will issue specific production tasks to the tofu houses of this vegetable team.
Then a certain amount of soybeans is allocated from the grain station for use in the tofu house of the vegetable production team.
After thinking about it,
Luo Xuan bought 10 jins of soybeans at the market for 50 cents and 2 cents per catty.
In the countryside, others don’t have time to make tofu, but I have time!
I don’t know how to make tofu, but I still ask so many people to help me at home.
By the time,
Just ask Aunt Zhang or the third sister-in-law to do it.
Controlling yourself is nothing more than paying them a day's wages.
Luo Xuan deliberately bypassed Ye Erniang to buy these 10 kilograms of soybeans.
It's not easy to do business between acquaintances.
Buying is expensive, selling is cheap, and there is a lot of gossip.
Luo Xuan was too lazy to get involved in such trouble, so he didn't go to Ye Erniang to buy it.
By the time I found a place to hide and put away the things I bought, the sky was slowly starting to get brighter.
Seeing that it was still early for the supply and marketing cooperative's store to open, Luo Xuan went to the catering service cooperative's store again, drank a bowl of soy milk and ate two fried dough sticks.
Think about it, when I first came to this time and space, I couldn't even afford pea cakes for 6 cents each.
And now I have a fried dough stick in my left hand, and a fried dough stick in my right hand!
Now, my life is full of greasiness, and I am really happy.
After breakfast, the non-staple food store of the supply and marketing cooperative was also open at this time.
When Luo Xuan picked up his pocket and walked in to buy another 30 kilograms of starch, he suddenly discovered that when buying starch today, each person could only buy half a kilogram!
Seeing this situation, Luo Xuan's heart suddenly thumped!
Too bad!
The supply and marketing cooperative is obviously aware of the loopholes in the starch sales policy.
That’s why we will sell in limited quantities like this before a new price system is formulated!
Luo Xuan asked himself: When he buys starch himself, or if the three brothers of the Zhou family come to buy it, they always buy it in batches, in small quantities and multiple times.
Another option is to buy little by little from Dai Hongmei’s consignment store.
I act so cautiously, why is the supply and marketing cooperative so responsive this time?
Since there is a limit on the amount of starch you can buy now, it would be really pointless to buy half a pound of starch yourself.
Luo Xuan, empty-handed, walked out of the supply and marketing cooperative's non-staple food store in confusion.
At this moment, I saw Mr. Zhou running over panting, "Luo Xuan, Luo Xuan! Wait for me."
Wait until Boss Zhou runs up to him.
He grabbed his arm, then hurriedly leaned into his ear and whispered: "Luo Xuan, you have to go home quickly! Someone from above is coming to investigate your matter!"
When Luo Xuan heard this, he was slightly startled: "Don't be impatient, speak slowly. What's above? Which unit are they from? What are they investigating?"
Boss Zhou replied out of breath: "I'm not too sure either.
It seems that two groups of people came, one group went to the brigade headquarters and the other to the home of the captain, Uncle Peng Zhikun.
Another group of people, I heard they are employees of the supply and marketing cooperative, there are three in total. They came to our production team early this morning, seemingly to investigate your vermicelli."
Making vermicelli yourself makes too much noise.
Among the members of the production team, some of them will inevitably be jealous.
If you make your own vermicelli, you will be exposed sooner or later.
Luo Xuan was already prepared for this and had found countermeasures.
But what did the other group of people do?
Luo Xuan thought about it, but he still couldn't figure out what the other group of people wanted to do when they came to find him.
Since I can't figure it out, I have to go home and take a look before talking about it.
After a while,
Luo Xuan and Boss Zhou hurried back to the production team.
The supply and marketing cooperative came to investigate the matter of making vermicelli. Luo Xuan already had a plan in mind, so he didn't feel it was urgent.
As for the purpose of the other group of people coming to find him, that is the most urgent thing that he needs to understand.
So as soon as Luo Xuan returned to the production team, he went directly to the production team headquarters to learn about the situation.
"Hey, if you say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will be here!"
As soon as the old branch secretary saw Luo Xuan, he waved to Luo Xuan, "Come on, come on, our hard-working little member Luo Xuan, come here quickly."
Look at the happy smile on the old party secretary's face and his kind words.
Luo Xuan immediately felt relieved: No need to guess, it must be a good thing!
Otherwise, he would be greeted by two militiamen carrying guns and a thick bundle of hemp rope...
When he was pulled into the office by the old branch secretary, he saw that it was packed with people.
Basically all the cadres of Zhengxing Brigade were present.
In addition, there are two cadres wearing four-pocket jackets with briefcases in front of them, also sitting at the desk.
As soon as Captain Liao saw Luo Xuan enter the door, he stood up and waved to Luo Xuan: "Come on, Comrade Zhao, Comrade Fang, let me introduce to you, this is Luo Xuan, a junior member of our production brigade."
"Luo Xuan, these two are cadres from the county and the township office. This one is a cadre from the county, Comrade Zhao Zheng."
Captain Liao enthusiastically introduced the two guests to Luo Xuan, "And this one is Comrade Wang who is in charge of the work of our Zhengxing Brigade in the township."
"Hey, is this the hard-working little club member who was on the radio?"
Zhao Zheng stood up, stretched out his hand to hold Luo Xuan's hand, and joked with a smile on his face: "It's amazing! Tsk, tsk, tsk, the young man is not only hardworking and loves the collective, but he also looks very upright!"
Hearing this, Luo Xuan couldn't help but blush: Just talk about things, why should you praise your appearance?
A manly man relies on his ability to earn a living, not on his looks...
In the office, Luo Xuan was praised a lot, and after chatting for a while, he finally understood:
turn out to be,
Ever since Zhang Wei's radio script was broadcast on the county radio station, it immediately triggered a strong social response!
The cadre named Wang smiled and said to Luo Xuan: "Comrade Luo Xuan, you did a good job! Very good!"
"You have added luster to our Hongxing Township!"
Comrade Wang patted Luo Xuan on the shoulder and encouraged: "I hope you will guard against arrogance and impetuosity, continue to work hard, and strive to achieve greater and more achievements in the future!"
Luo Xuan chuckled, "Thank you for the compliments from the leaders. This is what I should do. Moreover, I believe that with the support and encouragement of the county leaders, the township office, and the leaders of the brigade, all production teams in our Rongwei County
, other members of the club will do the same thing as me if they have spare energy. Moreover, they will do better than me."
"Hahaha, well said!"
Zhao Zheng applauded: "Neither arrogant nor impetuous, know how to be modest and prudent. Comrade Luo Xuan, you are very good!"
“Having young members like this is really a valuable asset to us!”
Zhao Zheng looked at Luo Xuan's tattered clothes and messy hair, and sighed to himself: This kid is too frugal...
I saw him take a sip of strong tea, then stand up, put his hands on his hips and said: "I wonder if a young commune member under 14 years old can solve all the difficulties in his life when he is completely poor."
"And it can also help the collective build roads, and you can also take out your own things and share them with the members of the production team."
"How many such a hard-working and frugal member who loves the collective and is willing to contribute can be found in the entire county, or even the entire region?"
Everyone nodded and agreed with Zhao Zheng's point of view: For a 13-year-old rural child to avoid a runny nose, wet the bed, and not have a painted face, that's pretty good!
Although children in rural areas become sensible early and are also very diligent.
But in front of so many cadres, it was very difficult for them to keep from trembling and speak a complete sentence.
How can one be like Luo Xuan, who can deal with things calmly and speak appropriately?
From this point of view alone, this baby is indeed amazing!
Zhao Zheng patted the table gently, signaling for everyone to be quiet.
Then he said: "What does it mean to be able to cultivate such outstanding young members? It shows that our cadres in the Zhengxing Brigade are good in guidance, education and management!"
Then, Zhao Zheng spoke loudly again.
After smoking a few rounds of cigarettes and drinking a few pots of tea, it was almost noon.
Zhao Zheng looked at the watch on his wrist.
Then he picked up the briefcase, pulled out a certificate of merit and a red envelope, and handed them to Luo Xuan solemnly.
After finishing his work, Zhao Zheng stood up and said goodbye to the cadres at the brigade headquarters.
He came to the countryside this time mainly to encourage Luo Xuan and express condolences to Luo Xuan.
Now that the matter is done, it's time for him to go back.
Comrade Wang, who was sent by the township government, naturally wanted to accompany him back to the village.
When the cadres at the brigade headquarters saw off Zhao Zheng and Comrade Wang, Captain Liao turned around and took Luo Xuan's shoulders, "Let's go, I'll accompany you to your 6th production team. The three people sent by the supply and marketing cooperative this time
I know you. I will explain your situation to them."
turn out to be,
The supply and marketing cooperative sent three employees this time to investigate Luo Xuan's vermicelli production at home. Captain Liao and the others had known about it for a long time.
With the cadres from the brigade headquarters coming forward to explain the situation to them, this saved me a lot of trouble.
It was originally according to Luo Xuan's plan.
Without Captain Liao and the others, I should be able to handle this matter myself.
I was just exchanging vermicelli for soft-shelled turtles to treat my illness. There was no issue of buying or selling involved.
What kind of stupid things can't be done on your own head!
However, the concepts and cognitions of this era are completely different from those of later generations, and it really cannot be judged by common sense.
so,
How the leaders of the supply and marketing cooperative will deal with this matter in the end will have to wait until they return home and meet with the cadres before they know the specific results.
