Chapter 95 Aren't You Killing the Donkey
"I know that your family does not lack food stamps, but these food stamps are useless to me, and I don't have a big appetite. I just saved them for you, so you can take them. If it doesn't work, you can take them with you. It’s okay for fellow villagers to exchange eggs.” Zhou Xiaoyun said.

"Eggs can be exchanged for food stamps?" Gao Fan asked in surprise.

There is no way, Gao Fan in the previous life has never even seen what food stamps look like, let alone the stalk of exchanging food stamps for eggs.

Zhou Xiaoyun said: "You can tell at a glance that you have no life experience. For those who are short of food stamps, they can't buy food stamps even if they want to spend money. By the way, let me tell you, now a catty of national food stamps can almost If you exchange eggs for fifteen cents, two catties of food stamps can exchange for three eggs, so don't lose out."

"It seems that the useless knowledge has increased again." Gao Fan scratched his scalp and said with a smile.

Zhou Xiaoyun gave Gao Fan a blank look, and reprimanded: "How can this be useless knowledge? It is a must-have knowledge for college! Come on, I'll take you to eat. The canteen of the Chemical Engineering Design Institute is pretty good. Ribs, you must like them."

Gao Fan picked up the national food stamp Zhou Xiaoyun gave him, followed Zhou Xiaoyun out of the dormitory, and went to the cafeteria to eat.

Speaking of which, Gao Fan used to eat and drink at Zhou Xiaoyun's place when he was a child.Every time Zhou Xiaoyun came back to Pujiang to visit relatives, she would bring him and Gao Min some snacks and chocolates from Pujiang.

All he could think of was that when the paint factory started to make profits and he had money in his hands, he would find a way to repay Zhou Xiaoyun.This aunt is sincerely kind to her predecessor, and now that she has the golden finger of a time traveler, she can't treat her badly.

The two came to the cafeteria, Zhou Xiaoyun gave Gao Fan six taels of rice, and bought two braised pork ribs, explaining that they were all for Gao Fan.She herself only had two or two meals, and ordered a fish-flavored shredded pork, which was actually potato shreds with a lot of noodle sauce, and it was rare to see a real shredded pork.

"Aunt Zhou, you should eat some ribs too."

Gao Fan looked at the bowl full of pork ribs in front of him, and said to Zhou Xiaoyun.

Zhou Xiaoyun waved her hand: "These are all yours. I'm busy losing weight now, so I can't eat meat."

"But you're not fat either."

"Wow, after I came to Beijing, I gained four to five catties. Maybe it's because the soil and water in the north are more nourishing."

"Maybe it's the food from the Design Institute. I think the food in your canteen is indeed better than ours. Also, the rice here is open to the public, and it's such a good rice. It's not easy."

At present, the supply of rice in the north is very tight. The monthly ration of ordinary residents is only three to five catties of rice, and the rest is flour and coarse grains.The university has special care for students, but a student only has a quota of six catties of rice per month.

For northern students, eating noodles is a matter of course, and some people are not used to eating rice.But the students in the south are suffering. They are not used to eating pasta, and the rice is not enough to eat. Sometimes they have to replace it with the students in the north.

Gao Fan in his previous life was also a southerner. Although he had lived in Beijing for many years and had no difficulty eating pasta, he still preferred rice in his bones.This time when he went to study at Peking University, what he was most unaccustomed to was not having rice to eat. Seeing that the same meal ticket was used to buy rice and steamed buns in the canteen of the Chemical Engineering Design Institute, he unconsciously expressed emotion.

Zhou Xiaoyun invited him to eat in the cafeteria. This big bowl of pork ribs was not as attractive to him as the six taels of rice.The rice used in Peking University cafeteria is also of average quality. It should be the early rice in the south, and the taste is very dry.The rice in the canteen of the Chemical Engineering Design Institute is obviously much more oily, much like the Northeast rice that Gao Fan ate in later generations.

"Really? Don't tell me I really didn't pay attention." Zhou Xiaoyun was taken aback for a moment, but quickly realized it.

She has been living in the south, so she is not too sensitive about eating rice and noodles.But she is also someone with social experience and knows the supply situation in the north.Hearing Gao Fan's words, she knew what was going on after a little thought.

"The Chemical Engineering Design Institute is the same as our factory. There are some channels to get rice. Many engineers in the Design Institute are from the south. It is estimated that the logistics is also to take care of them, so they specially went to get some rice." Zhou Xiaoyun said.

Gao Fan sighed: "Sure enough, any unit has connections, but our school is Qingshui Yamen."

"Since you think the food in our cafeteria is good, come here often if you have nothing to do."

"This... is still a bit difficult. It takes about two hours to change buses three times from our school."

"That's right, how about I'll visit you in the future and bring you something delicious."

"No need, in fact, our school has an internship restaurant. The food is a little more expensive than the student cafeteria, but the quality is still quite good. If I want to have a toothpaste, at worst, I can go to the internship restaurant to buy a small stir-fry, which is more than one piece, and the quantity is quite good. enough."

"Well, that's fine. Don't lose yourself when it comes to food. If you don't have enough money, just tell me."

"It's really unnecessary. In fact, before I came out, my mother gave me a lot of money."

"Your mother spoils you so much."

"Uh……"

Gao Fan has nothing to say, just now he was saying that if the money is not enough to spend, he would say something, why did he turn around and criticize my mother for pampering me?

"By the way, Aunt Zhou, do you have any clues about the pilot ammonium urine modification?"

Gao Fan changed the subject and asked Zhou Xiaoyun.This question was actually asked by Gao Yipin.After all, more than a thousand cadres and workers of Canghai Chemical Fertilizer Factory are waiting bitterly for news from the Ministry of Chemical Industry.

Hearing Gao Fan's question, Zhou Xiaoyun's sunny face turned cloudy in an instant. She shook her head and said, "This matter is a bit troublesome. I'm also talking to the leader these days."

"What do you mean?" Gao Fan's face also sank, this is not good news.

Zhou Xiaoyun said: "This matter has not yet been finalized. When the Provincial Department of Chemical Industry reported our ammonium urine modification plan, it clearly stated that it hoped that the Ministry of Chemical Industry could select the Canghai Fertilizer Factory as a pilot plant for the new plan. One of the reasons is that this plan was put forward by our factory.”

"What is the attitude of the Ministry of Chemical Industry?"

"The opinions of the Ministry are not uniform. Some leaders think that we should respect the opinions of Maolin Chemical Industry Department and choose our factory as a pilot factory. This is also an encouragement for us to actively carry out technological innovation.

"But some other leaders think that the conditions in our province are not as good as other provinces, especially because our factory is located in a remote place, so it is not suitable as a pilot factory."

"But this plan was proposed by our factory, we can't lose any benefits, can we?"

"The Ministry of Chemical Industry will give our factory a commendation."

"Commendation is useless!" Gao Fan said angrily, "If you take our proposal and turn your back on it, isn't that killing a donkey?"
