Reborn in 1940 and survived until the new century

"Ugh!

I can only say that you and Lu Yuan are not meant to be together!"

"Xing girl, what are your plans next?"

"Intend?

Then I can only continue to trouble all the elders to worry about me.

I don’t really know anyone except the people I know at work, so I’ll have to trouble the elders to find a partner.”

"Is this a big deal or not?"

"That's right. Don't worry. If there is a suitable candidate, we will definitely introduce him to you."

"That's right. Our girl Xing is not bad. She can always find a good partner!"

"That's absolutely true."

That’s true, but how easy is it to find a suitable partner?

Ever since receiving Lu Yuan's apology letter, whether it was Uncle Zhang, Comrade Qian, Comrade Li, or even the comrades in the office, they were all shocked.

I have introduced many people to myself, but there is always a sense of dissatisfaction.

I have become numb to blind dates, but when someone is kind enough to introduce me to someone, I can't help but go and meet them.

This was not during the blind date process, the time passed quickly and it was August 55.

On this day, a regulation was issued regarding the "Interim Measures for the Printing of Grain Ration Supply Certificates in Towns and Cities".

Everyone was confused again, and then received another rule.

That was the issuance of national grain coupons, which were required to buy grain in the future, and there were also oil coupons. It could be said that from this day on, we entered the "ticket era".

At the same time, it also stipulated how many food coupons and oil coupons each person could receive each month.

The amount of food coupons each person receives will vary depending on the type of work they do. For someone like me who does light manual labor, I get 30 kilograms of food coupons per month.

However, these 28 kilograms of food are not all flour and rice. Instead, the monthly amount of food is determined by the ratio of coarse grains, fine rice and flour.

As for cooking oil, it is distributed per person, 0.25 jin (16 liang) per person per month, half a jin of peanut oil, and some oil can be supplemented during festivals.

Fortunately, there are only these two items at the moment, and you need a ticket when purchasing them.

For example, the purchase limit on cotton cloth and cotton is fine, but there is no purchase limit on everything else.

But even so, some people are still saying it.

"With just this little food, how can it be enough to eat?"

"That's right. Our children are all at the age when they can eat the most. I'm afraid this little food won't be enough for half a month. What should we do?"

"What else can be done?

You can only figure it out yourself!"

"Yes!

If you don't find a solution yourself, you'll just starve!"

"It really is."

In fact, when the purchase of flour was restricted, no one cared. After all, if they didn't eat flour, they could still buy other food.

But now we can only buy food with food coupons, so don’t we have to find a way ourselves?

Now many people have set their sights on the countryside. No matter what, even if you can't buy much, you can secretly buy 10 or 20 kilograms.

Besides, in this day and age, who doesn’t have relatives in the countryside?

Let’s not talk about how hard life was in the countryside. At least no matter how hard life was, couldn’t we fill our stomachs with sweet potatoes?

From that day on, some city people would occasionally run to the countryside carrying baskets or bags.

And starting from this day, you will find many people on duty on the roads. There is no other way. As early as when the purchase of flour was restricted, they had already started to catch speculators.

But at that time, it was not so strict. In fact, as long as the number did not exceed a certain level, it would be fine even if you were caught.

The people above are very humane and they know that it's not easy for everyone. As long as the grain does not exceed 15 kilograms, the peanuts are to kilograms, and the cooking oil is kilograms, and the total value does not exceed yuan, then there will be no problem.

But often, big guys are willing to take risks because there are too many people in the family, and if they don’t buy more at one time, how can there be enough food?

I don't need to take this risk at all. Not to mention that I'm alone now, even if I go to the countryside too often, I still need a place to put it, right?

Even though you have space, the area is limited.

If you have the opportunity to stock up on sweet potatoes, it is better to stock up on some foods that are currently free of charge.

For example, aren’t chicken, duck, meat and eggs all OK?

But even so, after the autumn harvest in 55, he took the opportunity to stockpile 500 kilograms of sweet potatoes into the space.

The truth is that when everyone else is buying, if you don’t buy, you always feel like you’re losing out.

It was said that food coupons had not yet been implemented.

They grabbed 300 kilograms of flour alone, plus the 8 kilograms of flour they were allowed to receive every month, which was a total of 22 kilograms of flour for 176 months, and a total of 476 kilograms.

This amount of food is enough for one person in a year.

Before that, especially after I started working, until I heard about the "food rationing", I had about 180 kilograms of flour because I had been buying it non-stop.

In addition, there were 300 kilograms of flour prepared in the previous life, including 100 kilograms of dumpling flour. Excluding the flour that he had already used, there were probably 900 kilograms of flour left.

As for the flour that he had bought in Shancheng or Haishi before, or the flour that he had scrounged from the Gu family, he had secretly mixed it in when he was helping to fry the noodles in the orphanage.

Otherwise, there might be more flour left. But just because there is not much flour, it doesn’t mean there is less rice, right?

Although I didn't prepare much in my previous life, only 310 kilograms, to be honest, I have prepared a lot in this life.

Especially in this life, whether in the mountain city, the sea city, or even in the Gu family, in the past one or two years, I would buy a lot wherever I had the chance.

Even though I cook my own meals from time to time, there is still a lot of rice in the space. I estimate that there are about 3000 kilograms of rice.

Fortunately, there is room for it, otherwise, I would be worried that there would be no place to hide it.

As for various grains, they currently add up to more than 5000 kilograms, not to mention other food.

It can be said that a lot of food has been stockpiled at present. Not to mention that we will be able to eat enough for every meal in the future, but at least we should be able to keep ourselves 70% full.

Who made me the one who feeds the whole family?

That’s why many people ask this extra question when looking for a partner.

“How many food coupons can you get every month?

How many food coupons will be left?"

Although these are just two simple sentences, there is a lot of knowledge behind them. After all, the more food coupons you get, the stronger you are.

As for the remaining food coupons, should they be used for personal use or for something else?

Only very wealthy families can afford that; ordinary families can't afford it.
