Reborn in 1940 and survived until the new century

And each person buys such a large quantity?

Even if we have more food in our store, I'm afraid it won't be enough to sell, right?"

"Well, then, what else is there in the roughage?"

"There are still a lot of coarse grains. I only sold fine grains this morning, and I didn't sell any coarse grains at all!

Do you want some roughage?"

"Yes, give me 50 kilograms of coarse grains first!

Cornmeal is fine!

As for the rest, I’ll ask my family when I get back!"

"Okay, 50 kilograms of cornmeal, a total of..."

Hearing that the fine grain was gone, many people felt sad and regretted not coming earlier when they heard the news.

Fortunately, there are still coarse grains. Now everyone doesn’t care whether it is coarse grains or fine grains, as long as they can buy grain, it’s fine.

It was soon my turn. I didn't choose but ordered 50 kilograms of cornmeal and left quickly.

If there hadn't been so many people in front of the grain store, we would have needed at least 50 more kilograms of millet. Unfortunately, we couldn't do as we wished.

From this day on, not only did food prices show a slight upward trend, but even some other goods were increasing in price.

Chicken, duck, meat, eggs, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, everything related to ordinary people is increasing in price. Fortunately, the market is well controlled and the price increase is not too much, and it has not caused a sensation among everyone.

Not long after, on November 11st, the planned flour supply was officially implemented.

Everyone had a printed "flour purchase certificate", which became the earliest food coupon used by urban residents in Beijing.

Speaking of this "flour purchase certificate", I have only heard of food coupons, cloth coupons, etc. before, but never heard of this thing, and I didn't expect it to come so early. I thought I had to wait for two years?

I didn't know until I heard people chatting there.

Regarding this "flour purchase certificate", it is currently only available in Beijing and has not been implemented in other places. Is it any wonder that people don't know about this?

The most unexpected thing is that after the flour purchase certificate was issued, it stipulated that "all residents who live in this city and have completed formal household registration (except agricultural population) will be supplied with 8 catties of flour per person per month.

"what?

Eight pounds?

What can I do with these eight pounds of flour? "

"That's right. If there are more people in the family, there won't be enough to make dumplings once, okay?"

"Who says it's not?

Ugh!

Fortunately, the purchase of flour is restricted now. What if the purchase of rice or other food is restricted one day? "

"this?

No way? "

"I'm just talking, don't take it seriously, don't take it seriously!"

Whether you take it seriously or not is probably not only known by yourself. Many people will keep it in mind as long as they are interested.

When buying food next time, people are no longer limited to fine grains or coarse grains. As long as they can buy it, they will buy some.

After all, no matter where you buy the food and put it, even if you don’t eat it, you will feel at ease just looking at it!

Many people were afraid at first, and then they limited the purchase of other food.

But until the Spring Festival, no one had heard of any other relevant policies from above.

At this time, everyone was no longer buying as much food as they did at the beginning. After seeing this, many people gradually calmed down.

It can be said that these people no longer take the issue of food purchase restrictions seriously. After all, when the flour is finished, can't they eat rice?

Even though northerners like to eat pasta, in this case, what does it matter what you eat?

As long as you can have enough food and fill your stomach, it doesn’t matter what you eat.

Only those who are experienced or aware that something is wrong are still persisting.

I have neither experience in this area nor that kind of advanced awareness. I have been buying food based on my memories of my previous life.

Even though I didn't buy much each time I went out, I never stopped. After all, I knew the direction of history. How could I not take it seriously when I knew it so clearly?

But even so, in the last two weeks before the Spring Festival in 54, I still bought some things and put them in the space.

The most important thing is other things. While it is cold in winter, we catch fish by the river and put all the big fish weighing more than two kilograms in the space outside to freeze them.

Logically speaking, fresh fish is more valuable than frozen fish, both in terms of taste and sales price.

But I don't have the time or the ability to transport so many fresh fish to the city to sell, so I can only do this. I can't sell the fish while secretly rummaging out of the space, right?

That's not selling fish, that's seeking death.

On the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, the factory was closed. Many comrades living in the dormitories went home as early as the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month. After all, they could change shifts.

People who live far away from home can switch shifts with those who live closer to home. After finishing the night shift, they can pack up and go home.

There are also some people who can go home directly after get off work even if they just finish the day shift as long as they are close to home.

People who stay in the dormitory are basically a little far away from home, or they are afraid that it is unsafe to walk on the road after dark.

And I didn't need to worry about all these. I took the earliest bus early in the morning and came to the market where I sold fish last year.

This market is located on the northern side outside the north city gate. It can be said that it is located to the south of the south city and to the north of the south city. The most important thing is that it is close to the bus going back home.

After selling the fish, I have to take a bus back, so it is not possible to spend the night somewhere else.

As for whether to go back to the orphanage, it would have to be the second day of the new year at the latest. Although I am not a girl who was married out of the orphanage, my current situation is similar.

This was at the nearest big market at the North Gate. He found a deserted place, took out four bags of frozen fish that had been packed first from the space, put them on a shoulder pole, found a random place, and started selling fish.

Fortunately, we are not a serious vendor, so when we meet the staff who come to inspect, we only need to pay some management fees.

I had just finished cleaning up my stall when I saw an old lady standing in front of me and saying something.

"Comrade, you only have frozen fish here, no fresh fish for sale?"

"Auntie, to be honest, I also want to sell fresh fish, but I don't have that many tools.

"I started to cut the ice in the river before daybreak today, thinking that the fish would be fresh and sold quickly. But the weather was so cold that the fish would still be frozen despite all the efforts along the way. "

"That's right. Even though we're not in the Northeast, the winters here are pretty cold!"

"That's really true."

"How much is this fish per pound?"

"I have a wide variety of fish here, and I don't distinguish between them. They are all frozen like this. I'll give you a fixed price of 1000 per pound. If you like them, why don't you buy a few?"
