Chapter 299 Telegram Remittance

Come out this time.

The original plan was to let the three wild wolf cubs use the two wild boars raised in the space to practice their hunting skills in the wild.

Now,

Since the battle with the wolves was imminent, Luo Xuan did not want to add any extra burden to the three wolf cubs.

After releasing the three wolf pups, Luo Xuan was not worried that they would coexist peacefully with the wolf king.

The childhood experiences that have been engraved in their memories, plus the three wolf pups, have killed so many wild wolf pups today.

The blood feud between them and the wolf king can no longer be solved with tongues. The only way to completely solve the problem is to bite them to the death with wolf teeth.

Luo Xuan was not worried that the three wolf cubs would take the initiative to integrate into the wolf pack.

Three wolf pups who grew up in their own space, in such a privileged place.

I'm afraid it will be difficult for them to adapt to the lifestyle of their slovenly counterparts.

It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality.

Wild wolves eat without stripping their hair, and the bones are chewed and swallowed together. They urinate and defecate everywhere, and when they see food, they shed tears.

I like to sleep in groups and have lice all over my body...

Too uncouth!

Lying on the bed, Luo Xuan took out the telegram Lu Miao sent to him through the post office on the eve of the Lunar New Year, holding it in his hand and checking it over and over again.

Sending a telegram is very expensive. The fee for this thing is based on the number of words, which is 1.7 cents per word.

Even including the purchaser's address, these are charged based on the number of words... and there is never any discount at the post office.

so,

The telegram that Lu Miao sent to herself was also as precious as gold, and there were not many words in total.

That is the last sentence of the telegram: Upon seeing the telegram, I will give the holder of the telegram 86 yuan in cash as a token of appreciation.

This sentence represents real money.

If Luo Xuan takes this telegram and goes to the credit union of Red Star Commune, he can withdraw 86 yuan based on this telegram.

There were no bank cards at this time, let alone WeChat transfers.

If some people want to send money to relatives and friends far away, the most important and common way is to put cash in an envelope.

"Rebirth of the Great Era of Fighting Waves"

In order to prevent the letter from being lost and causing financial losses to yourself.

Often this kind of letter mixed with cash will be posted in the form of "registered mail".

Sending registered mail, although the postage is more expensive, is more secure.

If an ordinary letter is lost by the postman, he will at most be criticized by the leader, and the postman will not take responsibility.

But if the registered mail is lost, the postman will be punished.

In addition to using registered mail mixed with cash, there is another way, which is "telegraphic remittance".

Telegraph remittance is many times more expensive than sending registered mail!

If there is an emergency and relatives and friends in other places need money urgently, it will be much faster to use telegram remittance!

One is that as soon as the telegram is sent, the target post office has a special telegram registration number, and the other party can receive the telegram immediately.

Sending and receiving telegrams is extremely fast, but they cannot reach the recipient at once.

So the main reason that really makes the telegraph very efficient is because once the post office receives the telegram, it will immediately arrange for a postman to take over the delivery task.

In order to deliver the telegram to the recipient as soon as possible.

This kind of telegram is time-limited and does not allow the postman to delay for too long.

so,

During this period, if someone needed money urgently, it would be most efficient for the other party to remit money by telegram.

On New Year's Eve, after I received this remittance telegram from Lu Miao,

I couldn't help but feel a little surprised: According to Lu Gang's original request, I wanted to transfer my household registration to the city.

But in the end, he took it upon himself to move his household registration to the Xiaolaojun production team.

Now I don't want to go to the city to eat "resident food".

Lu Gang knew it.

Since Lu Gang knew it, then Lu Miao must also know it.

Logically speaking, all members of the production team now gather in the big canteen to eat.

Everyone eats for free.

Lu Gang and Lu Miao must know about this matter.

Since there is no need to pay for school and meals now, logically speaking, Lu Miao has no reason to send such a large sum of money to herself.

And now,

Lu Miao not only sent money to herself, but also did not hesitate to use telegram remittance, the most expensive method of remittance...

Hiss~

Could it be that... Lu Miao knew the current situation in the countryside so well that she believed that she was already facing extreme food shortage?

Therefore, he did not hesitate to remit a sum of money to himself so that he could buy some food for emergency purposes??

Luo Xuan carefully studied every word on the telegram, trying to read between the lines and analyze some hidden information.

As a result, after looking at it for a long time, Luo Xuan didn't come to a very definite conclusion...

Forget it, instead of thinking like this, it's better to be patient and wait for the handwritten letter from Lu Miao.

If the telegram couldn't explain the matter clearly, then Lu Miao would definitely write to himself to explain the whole story in detail.

Telegrams are fast, letters are slow.

And if Lu Miao wanted to call herself, it would be even more unrealistic.

this period.

Shake-bar telephones are still very valuable and rare items. They are so expensive that even the Zhengxing Brigade Headquarters is not qualified to install one.

This has nothing to do with whether the brigade headquarters has money or not.

The main reason is that the brigade cannot get the quota for installing telephones.

In the "maintenance room" of the Hongxing Commune Post and Telecommunications Office, there is a "switchboard" with only 20 jacks.

This machine is also called a 'telephone manual exchange'.

During this period, all units with telephones installed did not have telephone numbers.

Anyone who wants to make a call must first shake the handle and then tell the operator, "Please pick me up from such and such unit."

Then the operator will insert the corresponding plug into the corresponding port.

In this way, both parties can have a call.

If anyone wants to make a long-distance call, he must go to the commune post office and pay a sum of money first.

The operator is then responsible for requesting calls from outside one level at a time.

Fortunately, if the call fails, the post and telecommunications office will refund the deposit.

But sometimes, the call is clearly connected, but the call quality is very poor!

Both sides held up the microphone and yelled at the top of their lungs, but they couldn't hear clearly what the other side was saying.

If this happens, the caller will have no choice but to admit that he is unlucky: he didn't explain anything clearly, but he spent a lot of money.

Where can I go to reason?

Now, I inexplicably received a large remittance from Lu Miao.

That means: Lu Miao, who is much better informed than herself, now knows the situation... I'm afraid it's a bit serious.

Judging from Boss Zhou's escape all the way back from the construction site, it seems that the matter is more serious and wider than he imagined.

However, even though I knew the situation was serious, I couldn't change it much.

The space is only so large, and the yield of food grown in the ground cannot be higher.

For a food shortage that is often measured in units of "100 million catties", no matter how hard you try, you cannot change the overall situation.

Even now, it has become impossible for me to go to Quan Mouse and buy some jade to recharge.

According to Liu Fugui, who came to pay him New Year greetings during the Chinese New Year, even he can't contact Quan Mouzi now!

Now that I can't even find a mouse, where can I buy jade?

There are quite a lot of jade in the Hotan and Qiemo areas of Beijing.

But you want to travel all the way from Bashu Province to get jade there?

Say something unpleasant.

On the road alone, you can toss yourself for half your life!

Forget it, just let it happen!

I am already trying my best, and the rest I can only let nature take its course...

Having made up his mind, Luo Xuan felt sleepy and was falling asleep.

Sudden!

An inexplicable sense of oppression came over, which not only made people feel a huge crisis.

Moreover, it also makes me feel a little inexplicable!

There is a situation!

Luo Xuan picked up the rifle leaning on the bedside and rushed to the window.
