I am in the courtyard, animals are just vegetables!

Chapter 80 I have to pretend to be poor from now on!

On the morning of the 28th day of the lunar year, Cao Dongfang came to Chen Xueru's home with large and small bags to give her New Year's goods, mostly various meats, fish, and shrimps, which were frozen and could be eaten after thawing.

Thirty kilograms of mutton and twenty kilograms of beef will be prepared for Chen Xueru in the afternoon. At noon, Cao Dongfang will go to have a meal with his junior high school classmates. As for the classmates from the technical secondary school, they are just average, so we will talk about it later.

It’s not that Cao Dongfang is being picky, but people who are not on the same level really can’t get along with each other because they have different ideas.

.......

"Everyone, it's time to exchange your money for new ones in March. The country is issuing the second set of currency, with an exchange rate of :1." Ma Kangri said at the dinner table.

"It's a small matter. I'm a poor student with only ten dollars a month. I can't even spend it until the end of the month. How can I change it?" Lu Fang said with a smile.

"Anti-Japanese, your mother's news, can the last set of currency be exchanged? I have a thousand yuan in spare money, and I want within fifty sets." Cao Dongfang said.

"Damn! The rich man is here. Let me ask you, the newer the better. Is it worth collecting?" Ma Kangri said.

“I think so. My friend collects furniture and he exchanges furniture from another person.

People only want a complete set of currency, saying that the money has great collection value and that you can collect it if you have spare money.

We don’t understand, but others do. I have spare money but don’t know what to do with it.

Just collect coins. Paintings, calligraphy and antiques are all valuable. I have heard the saying "gold is valuable in troubled times, antiques are valuable in prosperous times".

If you have some spare money in the future and you know antiques, you can collect them. It’s better to exchange your money for these things instead of spending it. "Cao Dongfang said.

"Dongfang's idea is good. He doesn't understand what others say, so it's better to collect valuable items if he has spare money. Unfortunately, I don't have any spare money either," said Ma Hua.

"Damn! Ma Hua, you've been working for almost four months and still have no money. Where's your salary?" asked Lu Fang.

"Brother, I can only earn 17.5 yuan a month as an apprentice. What can I do with that? I am even poorer than when I was in school.

Pockets are cleaner than face!

"Your face is a little dirty because you don't wash it every day." Lu Fang said with a smile.

Hahahaha.

"roll!"

"Is hunting in the East profitable?" asked Ma Hua.

"If you had my martial arts, you would make a lot of money. You are an ordinary person, and even if I give you a gun, you can't do anything," said Cao Dongfang.

"Brother, you are so awesome, why don't you go there to hunt?" Ma Hua said somewhat unconvinced when he heard it.

"In the depths of the Daxi Mountain, there are tigers and blind bears, herds of wild boars, wild sheep, etc. Can you get in?" Cao Dongfang said.

"Dongfang, you are so powerful. Even a small army cannot enter the deep part of Daxi Mountain. My father said that it's okay on the periphery, but not inside." Lu Fang said.

“I’ve also heard that soldiers died in the deeps, so they stopped going in to hunt.

Dongfang, you are amazing, no wonder you have a thousand dollars to spare. I don’t want to go to that place. "Ma Hua said.

"The scariest things there are snakes, not tigers. You don't have to go there. It's not dangerous for me. Just be careful. To celebrate my spare money, I'll pay for the meal this time." Cao Dongfang said.

"Thank you Dongfang. How's your study going? Have you driven the car yet?" Ma Kangri asked.

"No, it's said I'm in the second grade. I have theory but no practice. Driving is a piece of cake!" said Cao Dongfang.

"Ma Hua, do you have food, oil and other daily necessities?" Ma Kangri asked.

"Yes, it's the largest and most comprehensive supply and marketing cooperative in Chaoyang. It has all kinds of daily necessities, so what?" Ma Hua said.

"Don't ask. You will know in a year. Build good relationships with the people there," said Ma Kangri.

"A year is indeed about the same. If you have good cotton and fabrics for men and women, please tell me and I will stock up more," said Cao Dongfang.

"What news do you have? I don't know. Tell me." Ma Hua saw that something was wrong.

"Don't ask, it's just a guess, it won't do you any harm." Ma Kangri said. "When do you think Dongfang will be?"

"There will be a national meeting in August and some things will be decided. For example, what to do with the large gaps in grain, oil and private economy? There will be a statement for all of them and the higher-ups can't afford to delay," said Cao Dongfang.

"You are awesome. My father's old superior also had the same idea," said Ma Kangri.

"It has little to do with us. We have an adult to support us. He should know someone in the East. We can talk to him when we need anything. Let's drink." Lu Fang said.

"There's nothing I need at home. Come and have a drink."

"Yes, we don't need to take over now. Let's drink.`

......

There are indeed many people who have information, but they just don’t know the exact information. The only one who has accurate information is...

The country received a large amount of gold and foreign exchange from Cao Dongfang, but it was impossible to import all of it as grain and meat.

Even if you have money to buy things, you have to buy them little by little. You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry.

Besides, it is not wrong to tighten the belt and live a hard life for a few years to build the country. International relations are very different from those in the late 1970s. Reform and opening up are bullshit.

Our country and the Russian bear are in the same camp!

.......

In the afternoon at Chen Xueru's home, mutton soup began to stew in the kitchen. Chen Xueru also wanted to drink mutton soup instead of eating steamed lamb.

"Sister Xueru, the mutton soup is ready. It won't freeze when you serve it out. You can drink as much as you want by heating it up. You can add radish or cabbage, both are delicious and can also remove greasiness." Cao Dongfang said.

"Make mutton soup and we'll eat the meat. Hou Kui is over one year old, so he can drink less soup." Chen Xueru said.

"It is best to drink less mutton soup and more milk powder. Then eat meat after one year and six months, and drink some light soup. Now you can eat some fish, which has no bones and is easy to digest." Cao Dongfang said.

"I don't quite understand, but the nanny said it's okay. Brother Dongfang knows a lot!" Chen Xueru teased.

"The nanny's method of raising children is used by poor families. After weaning, you can just soak steamed buns in plain water. We have the conditions and don't need to learn. When will the nanny go back home?" Cao Dongfang asked.

"On the morning of New Year's Eve."

"Well, I'll be here at 9:30 a.m. on the 30th. Lunch and dinner are both ready. You can eat some for lunch and heat up dinner. I'll bring you some frozen dumplings. If you want to eat them in the evening, you can steam them.

I will go back after lunch and come to accompany you at 8 pm. I will go back at 11 pm. I will go to pay New Year's greetings on the first day of the new year. Will you go out on the first day of the new year? "Cao Dongfang said.

"You are so busy. You don't have to be too busy. Hou Kui sleeps well now and is easy to take care of. I won't go out on the first day of the New Year because I have no relatives here." Chen Xueru said.

"It's okay. I'm still young and it's okay for me to run back and forth. In order to prevent you from being lonely and bored during the New Year, I will accompany you." Cao Dongfang said with a smile.

"You are thoughtful." Chen Xueru said proudly.

"The second set of currency will be used in March this year, and the first set of currency will be withdrawn. At the end of August, your public-private partnerships and grain and oil will begin to be quantified. There are a lot of things to do, so you should pay attention to cooperating with the public-private partnerships!" said Cao Dongfang.

"I understand the new currency. You told me about the public-private partnership. The specific meaning of grain and oil rationing is..." Chen Xueru asked.

"Specifically, you will have a food book or food coupons, and a monthly ration. You should have 26-32 kilograms. You will only have this much food ration each month. There will be no more food in the market in the future. If you don't have enough food, you will go hungry.

There are coarse grains and fine grains. White flour is a fine grain, accounting for only about 30% and not much oil.

This is a small matter. I will send you some oil every month. You like noodles, do you want rice?" Cao Dongfang said.

"Ten kilograms of rice is enough for me to eat for three to six months. I can just leave some of it out. But white flour is not enough. I only have 10% fine grains, so nine kilograms of white flour is too little," said Chen Xueru.

"You are a little short of it. Hou Kui will be almost two years old by then. He can eat normally and has a nanny. I will send you 50 kilograms of flour and 10 kilograms of oil every month. Is that enough?" Cao Dongfang asked.

"Brother Dongfang is really wild. You still have so many after all the quotas have been set. That's amazing!" Chen Xueru teased.

"That's right, you just realized how powerful I am. I thought you knew it a few months ago, but your brain's reflex arc is too slow." Cao Dongfang said with a smile.

"Get lost. You never talk seriously. Brother Dongfang, what should I do if I can't finish my food?" Chen Xueru asked.

"You are stupid. This will cause a lot of people to not have enough food, and it can be used to buy people's hearts.

Don’t give too much to the shop assistants and the lonely elderly people on the street each time, just three or five kilograms at most, and save the money for selling it to others.

Before the rationing, you bought 100 kilograms of flour. You also have a small appetite, so don’t be extravagant and pretend to be poor when it comes to food. "Cao Dongfang said.

“I understand. Everyone doesn’t have enough food, and I can’t give them much more. I have to give them little by little. Saving some food from their mouths will help win their hearts.

"Brother Dongfang, you are so powerful at such a young age, but you will be a big trouble when you grow up!" Chen Xueru said.

"Who have I harmed?"

"I!"
