There is Room for Rebirth in the 1950’s

Endure and endure, hope and hope, until the end of this semester, I can finally have winter vacation.

The local students at school immediately ran home. It was a hard day.

The winter this year is very cold. I sleep until midnight and feel hungry and cold. Everyone in a dormitory often hugs each other to keep warm. Even in the middle of the night, I dare not pee casually, which makes me even hungrier.

Most of the students may be in a worse situation when they go home. Every household is not necessarily better than at school, but people, depressed for a long time, always escape with hope.

Originally, this semester, the students in Class 1 had to follow the professor to visit and practice in the unit during the winter vacation. The teacher didn't even mention it, and everyone dispersed. Zhang Guoqing was so happy that he pretended to be stupid and told his classmates that he and his wife would go back to their hometown in Northeast China.

I really have a mission, if you have the ability, you teachers go to the northeast to find him.

Carrying the luggage, Zhang Guoqing dragged Zhou Jiao, followed Yi Jiefang and his buddies shouting happily, and ran all the way to the small station. It's really not easy, his wife is almost reduced to a piece of paper.

Zhou Jiao stomped her feet anxiously. These fools! If you are so energetic, you are not afraid of going through the gang. Didn't you see that the students in the nearby schools are all limp and powerless?

Inside the station, Zhou Jiao stretched her hands out of breath, Brothers, can we be more reserved?

Everyone laughed loudly after hearing this, but found that something was wrong, they winked at each other and calmed down.

Are you really going back to your hometown?

We will protect you back.

Zhang Guoqing shook his head with a smile, There is no unexpected incident, basically I won't go back.

Yi Jiefang and the others wailed when they heard this. Where's their meat? There are many people in their family, unlike the Zhou family, only Zhou Xiaozheng can ensure that the whole family can taste the food.

The car is here, let's talk when we go back. Zhang Guoqing helped Zhou Jiao to leave first. At the end of the year, he had to look for the black market in the capital to see the situation. He really didn't plan to go back to his hometown.

When they got near the compound, even Yi Jiefang didn't go home, and resolutely took his luggage and went to Zhou's house first. Everyone is still planning to discuss how to spend the winter, and who knows when they will be able to gather together.

A group of people entered the compound and rushed to the West Wing of Zhou's house with their luggage on their backs. The elders didn't have time to get off work, and they all limp on the kang without any image.

Seeing the surprise, Zhou Jiao went to the bedroom alone, packed her luggage, and put the change of clothes in the bathroom. It was still early, and Ping An hadn't finished school yet.

She came to the living room slowly, and saw that Aunt Chen had already ordered two bowls of noodles.

There are too many people, I didn't prepare them, you eat first and exchange for Xiao Wu.

Zhou Jiao smiled and shook her head, Auntie ordered some pimple soup to fill their stomachs. They gave them a lot of biscuits a while ago, don't blame them.

Okay. Xiao Fei seems to have something to do with Xiao Wu, so leave a message for Xiao Wu to contact him as soon as possible. The chief asked you to come back and take care of yourself and don't run outside.

Zhou Jiao nodded.

Speaking of Fang Fei, she thought of his wedding this November. It's really simple enough, just in the cafeteria, the young couple wears military uniforms and swears a few words, and they become husband and wife.

The couple wrapped two yuan for their parents-in-law and two yuan for themselves, and her father gave five yuan each to Yi's family and Fang's family. Thinking of the lucky money that Fang Fei gave to Ping An before, well, it was a big loss.

Thinking of this, Zhou Jiao laughed foolishly. If people know about this thought, they can't say that the son will follow him.

Zhang Guoqing nestled in the west wing, listening to them talking about which black market is the most suitable. Come on, these buddies are knowingly committing crimes.

This matter is settled, and the next thing is the meat. I have already asked an acquaintance to help me with the seafood. The price is twice as expensive as usual. If any of you want to say something, if there are too many, ten catties per person.

It's only ten catties, not enough to fit between the teeth. Then find a way to make the other party do more. Wan Dayong pouted at Chao Yi Jiefang in disgust.

Dude, there's really no way. Yellow croakers usually cost 40 cents a catty, but now they can't be bought for a dollar on the black market. We don't want to embarrass others.

Zhang Guoqing watched them arguing about ten catties of seafood with a smile. In my mind, I recalled the past when a sack of sacks didn't even cost five yuan.

What a heaven and hell treat.

Wan Dayong patted his forehead, Did we forget to say hello to Mu when we came back in a hurry?

Ding Datou smiled and said: Da Yi had already talked with him, and I was there yesterday. But he has to go back to his hometown to get the news.

Yes, the young man has a future.

Yi Jiefang patted Wan Dayong's arm off his shoulder, and said with a smile, Don't be too happy, sometimes it's just a drizzle, what's worth it.

Aunt Chen came in with a wooden tray and shouted, Pay your belly first, don't just chat.

Auntie, you have so much love.

I was so hungry that I was so hungry that I forgot that my stomach was empty.

Zhang Guoqing got up and went out, leaving them in the house. When I arrived at the living room, I saw a bowl of noodles. Why are you so happy to eat alone?

I'll go out with them later, just in time to pick up my son. You go to the room and lie down for a while.

Zhou Jiao lowered her voice, Have they reached a conclusion?

Several people get together and talk about the same thing, there is no way to do more.

Seeing this, Zhou Jiao didn't ask any more questions, and told him to eat noodles quickly, and they would all be lumped together if it was too late.

In the early morning of the next day, Zhang Guoqing took Zhou Jiao to the black market in the southern suburbs after some disguise. This piece of land was mentioned by someone, but he hadn't been here yet, and he didn't know if it was the largest in the city as the other party said.

When they arrived at the place, they leaned on the slightly dewed gas lamp, and the couple didn't really plan to buy anything. After looking around, they found that they had everything they should have. In order not to look weird, they bought two river fish.

After asking a few prices, Zhang Guoqing and Zhou Jiao looked at each other and could feel each other's shock.

It is really a day in the mountains, a hundred years in the world. They never thought that the price had risen so ridiculously, it was really Luoyang paper is expensive. No wonder so many people are reluctant to eat it and trade it.

I heard that a large loaf of bread costs fifteen yuan, and a catty of biscuits costs ten yuan per catty with food stamps. Zhou Jiao's eyes flickered, she lowered her eyes, and pulled Zhang Guoqing down.

In a blink of an eye, a catty of food stamps has risen to five yuan and cannot be bought.

It has to be said that Zhou Jiao was tempted.

She sold the biscuits and exchanged them for food stamps plus ten yuan per catty, which was a good deal.

Seeing that she was about to move, Zhang Guoqing pulled her to squat down in the corner, spread a black bag on the ground, and put two packets of biscuits on it. In this way, the couple started their business.

Don't look at Zhou Jiao who has relied on part-time jobs to support herself since she was a child, and she has never set up a street stall. This time Zhang Guoqing will return to his old business, and he is quite skilled in business.

After a while, a middle-aged man came forward to ask for the price, and asked for five packs of biscuits.

Zhang Guoqing took out five bags from the black bag behind him and handed them to the other party, and Zhou Jiao immediately took the money. The couple cooperated tacitly and won the first battle!

Twenty packs of biscuits were sold, and Zhang Guoqing saw that they were all local food stamps valid for one month, and it would be very troublesome to exchange for national food stamps. He immediately changed the goods and replaced them with chaff.

He is not demanding, a catty of chaff does not need three yuan for food stamps.

As for why the price is exactly three yuan, it is also a matter of convenience. Can he tell everyone that he is interested in the collection value of the three-yuan banknote?

With the high prices around, this should be considered the lowest price, and it should also be that everyone is really short of food. After a while, all the one hundred catties of rice chaff that was used for decoration were sold out.

Zhou Jiao kept taking the money, sighing secretly that it was a huge profit.

If it weren't for the fear that the goal was too big, all the chaff in the space would be sold, and their family would not have to go to work for ten years, and they would just eat and wait to die.
