Go back to the prosperous days and become a layman

Chapter 101 The first appearance of 100
In the early morning of the next day, Tang Zhitong went to the transfer station to carry the newspaper. When he was about to arrive, he packed more than half a bag of sweet potatoes in a sack and about ten kilograms of millet in a flour bag, and then slowly and leisurely rode towards the transfer station.

Wan Xiangyang had been waiting by the transfer station for a long time. When Tang Zhitong came over, he quickly moved to his bicycle, thanked him in a hurry, and then got off the bike.

For now, people who eat commercial grain in the [-] cities have experienced a downgrade in consumption, but they can barely make ends meet. It is the rural areas that are suffering...

There is nothing we can do about the downgrade of consumption. Canteens in factories and work units have begun to collect food stamps. Some people are no longer able to eat at work and save food stamps for their families.

Food stamps are limited, so if you want to eat enough, you can only go to outside shops and restaurants to buy them. These all require money, and money is also limited.

If you want to eat more, you can only live frugally. For example, I used to eat corn flour, but now I buy sorghum rice and sorghum noodles.A pound of cornmeal costs [-] cents, and a pound of sorghum rice costs [-] cents. There is a price difference of [-] cents per pound.

Based on the ration of thirty kilograms per person, if we switch to eating sorghum rice, we can save sixty-nine cents, and we can buy three more kilograms of steamed bread when we go out...

Because of Wang Jingwen's joining, the Tang family's monthly income has increased sharply to more than 80, and Fangdong Flower Market can be considered a middle-to-high-income group, a proper middle class.

Neighbors may not know how much income a family has, but it is obvious to everyone who is living a good life.

The Tang family built a house this year, and they also have two bicycles. Some are greedy, but most are responsible.

Many neighbors came to Zhang Guifang to exchange for food stamps, exchanging their fine grain stamps for the Tang family's coarse grain stamps. She did not agree before, but now she considered her daughter-in-law and wanted her to eat better, so she exchanged some. So we eat white noodles more often at home.

"Brother Eucalyptus, I will bring pickles from home to work from now on." After dinner, the two of them were busy in the wing and continued to process new clothes. Although Zhang Guifang was better at needlework, Wang Jingwen was shy. These clothes were made by Tang Zhitong. Handmade.

"Why? There is no charge for eating in the canteen. You can't spend much money on a meat dish for a meal, so you don't have to save money." Since Beitu Canteen started to collect food stamps, Wang Jingwen began to bring meals from home and go to the canteen to get food. , so that one pound of food stamps can produce at least one more steamed bun.

"It's not delicious, but I still think your cooking is delicious." Wang Jingwen smiled sweetly at Tang Zhitong.

"You're still talking about it. You can take it if you want. But pickles are not nutritious. I'll get you some apples and take one every day from now on." Tang Zhitong laughed dumbly, so he just took it by himself, otherwise Xiao Wang would definitely The food in the canteen is delicious. After a while, the canteen will also restrict the purchase of vegetables...

"No, apples are so expensive now, I might as well buy an egg to eat." Xiao Wang refused.

"Huh? Do you still sell eggs in the canteen?" Tang Zhitong didn't have a canteen. He didn't see eggs when he went to the escort department. He was surprised to hear his wife say this.

"Yes, each person is limited to one, and it costs eight cents. It's not cheap." Xiao Wang confirmed with a nod.

"Then buy it, it's quite a bargain. It's hard to buy eggs on the streets now." Since the turn of the year, various commodities have gradually begun to be restricted in purchase. Eggs are one of them. On the surface, each household is limited to one kilogram (ten pounds) per month. Large households with more than [-] people will provide one pound more), but whether residents can buy it depends on luck. This is based on the fact that many poor families have given up buying...

"Okay, then I'll buy it and we can share it." Wang Jingwen agreed readily. She is a very qualified sister-in-law. She has some delicious food and is close to the two sisters-in-law. Her family status has surpassed that of Tang Zhitong.

"No, you can just eat. You don't have to bother them with everything." Tang Zhitong knew that the two sisters had suffered a lot in the past, and their lives have improved a lot now. However, Wang Jingwen married him, and his living standards were still somewhat improved. Reduced.

"My mother is reluctant to feed them. They are growing. Those two chickens only lay about twenty eggs a month. If you make egg soup, my mother would like to scoop all the egg flakes into my bowl. . I feel uncomfortable. Can you talk to my mother? Don’t do this next time. I have told her many times, and she promised to be nice and do it again next time." Wang Jingwen has troubles with happiness. , said to Tang Zhitong.

"Then let me try. If I can't explain it, then you can buy eggs from the canteen and eat them separately." Tang Zhitong knew his own mother's temperament, so he probably would have a hard time explaining it himself.

Tang Zhitong is very satisfied with Xiao Wang's thoughtfulness and can supplement it in other ways, such as not cutting off the Yue family's millet and non-staple food.

No matter what is going on outside, the Tang family lives a peaceful and happy life.

The promotion of postal codes has come to an end. Factories have the highest acceptance, while residential areas are slightly worse. From time to time, Tang Zhitong still encounters residents who ask him how to fill in the postal code. Whenever this happens, Tang Zhitong always happily tells people.

Everyone communicates with basically a fixed number of people. Even if there are three or five, all the destination zip codes can be found at once, so it is not troublesome.

On Friday, Tang Zhitong received a call from Wu Haiyang, asking Tang Zhitong to go to his unit to find him.

Wu Haiyang's unit is not far away. It is north of Jingshan Park. You can get there in 10 minutes by riding a bicycle.

It was the first time for Tang Zhitong to come to this kind of unit, and the management could be said to be very strict. He would first register at the gate, and after confirming with the person he was visiting by phone, a temporary pass would be issued to the person inside to collect the person.

Wu Haiyang put on his uniform and personally came out to bring Tang Zhitong in.

"Euclidean, I called you here because I have something I want to tell you face to face, so I won't take you to the office. There are many people there and it's inconvenient." Wu Haiyang found a place that was open and uninhabited, where anyone could see it. Clearly.

"Understood, tell me." Tang Zhitong took out his cigarette and lit one for Wu Haiyang.

"I heard some news, the situation is not optimistic. Due to the tight supply to Hong Kong County, Jiangzhou has stopped the supply of meat and eggs to residents. That's a province! I guess we will be there soon." Wu Haiyang took a deep breath He took a puff of cigarette and frowned.

"Is my sister-in-law pregnant? I still have some rabbits and eggs at home. Brother Yang, if you need them, I can bring some for you?" Tang Zhitong was confused for a moment and could only guess in the direction he thought was the most reliable.

"No, you are overthinking." Tang Zhitong's words made Wu Haiyang dumbfounded.

"Hehe, you thought I was going to be an uncle." Tang Zhitong touched his head and smiled sheepishly.

"I just want to tell you that the situation is very serious. The milk substitute powder and lotus root substitute powder that no one bought in the Shanghai market before have been robbed. You have some idea in your mind, and prepare as much as you can." Wu Haiyang told Tang Zhitong that he was serious. The news I heard.

"Okay, I understand, thank you Brother Yang." Tang Zhitong knew that for what it was, although the city was generally experiencing difficulties, due to the lack of publicity and information, most people thought it was not serious and would be alleviated by the autumn harvest.

"recent……"

"Hey, Brother Yang, when are you and your sister-in-law going to have a baby? I'm looking forward to being an uncle." Tang Zhitong saw someone coming from behind Wu Haiyang and interrupted Wu Haiyang. "What I said doesn't count, and what your sister-in-law said doesn't count. It doesn't count when it happens." Wu Haiyang understood instantly, and there was a smile on his face, as if he was chatting with Tang Zhitong about daily life.

"Old Wu, is this your friend? Why are you entertaining friends here? The wind is still very strong, please pay attention to your health." The visitor took the initiative to greet Wu Haiyang.

"Thank you, Director Liu, for your concern. Let's smoke a cigarette here." Wu Haiyang pretended to have just discovered Director Liu and replied kindly.

"This is..." Director Liu showed no sign of leaving and looked like he wanted to join the chat.

"Oh, look at me, this is Tang Zhitong." Wu Haiyang patted his forehead and introduced Tang Zhitong to Director Liu first, and then introduced Director Liu to Tang Zhitong: "Xiao Tang, this is Director Liu of our department."

"Hello, Director Liu." Tang Zhitong smiled and shook hands with Director Liu. The situation was unknown, but at least a good attitude wouldn't hurt.

"Oh, I guess it's you. You are very good. Your inventions and creations have made great contributions to our army." Director Liu shook hands with Tang Zhitong enthusiastically and did not hesitate to praise him.

"Thank you very much. It is the duty of every citizen to contribute to the country." Tang Zhitong responded in a lively manner.

"You are very enlightened! You won't blame me for not agreeing to give you first-class merit, right?" Director Liu said with a smile.

"What?" Tang Zhitong was confused. Wasn't he fighting for two and three?Why did you almost get first-class merit?

"Director Liu, I haven't had time to tell him yet. You are showing love to him, how could he have any objections?" Wu Haiyang continued, fearing that Tang Zhitong would say the wrong thing.

"Thank you, Director Liu! I think it would be nice to be rewarded. I didn't expect such a high honor. Oh, thank you, thank you!" Tang Zhitong's face was filled with joy, and he couldn't help rubbing his hands together without any pretense.

"Hahaha, don't blame me for blocking your way forward. Are you interested in coming to our unit? We really need young talents with ideas like you." Director Liu looked at Tang Zhitong and knew that he really didn't know anything in advance. It can also be seen that there is no dissatisfaction, and the misunderstanding that the two people were talking bad about him behind his back has disappeared.

"Thank you, Director Liu, for your love. I have an elder and a younger child at home. Before my father passed away, I promised to take good care of the family. I have to run home from time to time. I don't worry if I am far away." Tang Zhitong declined Director Liu's invitation. The two of them were not familiar with each other. I feel that Director Liu is not as straightforward as Fangyuan from the Escort Department, and he is really a fool.

"Okay, taking care of the family is also a man's responsibility. You guys talk first, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first." After Director Liu said that, he shook hands with Tang Zhitong, nodded with Wu Haiyang, and walked towards the office building in the distance. .

"Brother Yang, what's going on?" Tang Zhitong was still a little unsure of the situation after dealing with Director Liu.

"I gave you the second class. When I went to the meeting, some leaders thought it was too low. Purification equipment and pressure cookers can not only improve the combat effectiveness of plateau troops, but also effectively prevent non-combat attrition. What's more, water purification equipment has a wider application range." Wu Haiyang lit up another cigarette and took a puff. The smoke curled up from his nostrils. "I have learned through relevant channels above that pressure cookers are not common in foreign countries and have the conditions to earn foreign exchange through export. In short, they can bring very considerable benefits to the country. "

"Then what?" After listening to the conversation just now, Tang Zhitong was no longer anxious and listened slowly to Wu Haiyang's conversation.

"Then Director Liu felt that this was not the credit of any one person, but also the credit of the scientific and technological workers who took over and continued to improve it. He wanted to share the credit with his own people." Wu Haiyang continued.

"It's understandable. It's quite good to have a protective leader." Tang Zhitong thought of Zheng Suo. It was too worry-free to work under such a leader.

"That's what he said, but no one likes to be refuted. The person also said that there is already a drought in some places, and the country also needs foreign exchange. It must set an example and produce more inventions that can be exchanged for foreign exchange."

"That makes sense." Tang Zhitong nodded in agreement.

"Is there no reason why you can sit in that position? No one will consider you." Wu Haiyang complained.

"Isn't there a foreign brother here?" Tang Zhitong smiled.

"I can't be trusted either. What can I say? If the disaster is serious, use foreign exchange to buy food?" Wu Haiyang laughed at himself.

"Brother Yang, please don't say that, you will make a mistake." Tang Zhitong solemnly warned.

"I'm not stupid. In fact, the leader saw it, but didn't say it clearly. Everyone understood it. Director Liu also understood it, but he felt that gritting his teeth and persisting until the autumn harvest would alleviate the problem. There are many people who have this idea. Alas !" Wu Haiyang sighed heavily, feeling deeply powerless.

"This is not something you and I can solve individually. As long as it does not harm the public and private interests, let nature take its course." In the face of the big situation, the power of individuals is too small.

From the very beginning, Tang Zhitong had a clear understanding that many problems could not be solved even if there were problems.He has no clear idea of ​​how much he weighs. Regardless of whether he is injured or not, the one who dies is the happiest one.

"Otherwise, what else can you do? Fortunately, your second-class merit has been implemented. It won't be long before it is approved. Then I will send it to you with gongs and drums." When talking about this issue, Wu Haiyang had a smile on his face. Take a puff of cigarette, throw the cigarette butt on the ground and stub it out with your toes.

"Brother Yang, there's no need, just keep a low profile." Tang Zhitong refused.

"You could keep a low profile before, but now it's better to keep a high profile. Our system will have the function to help you with this difficult operation, but after everyone knows it, it shouldn't be difficult to get a salary increase, and your hands will be more spacious, and it will be better in the future. There is a response." Wu Haiyang patted Tang Zhitong on the shoulder and said sincerely.

"Sure, thank you Brother Yang." Tang Zhitong thought about the same truth. Although his merits can become a talisman in the future, the time before the wind will rise is still far away, so he should focus on the present first.

"I'm going to see you outside, right? The main thing is to tell you to be aware of it and be prepared. I won't take you to the office. I have other things to do, so I'll send you out first." Wu Haiyang raised his arm to check the time. said.

"Okay. I know what Brother Yang said, but Brother Yang, don't do anything about uncovering the cover. There is no system, and there is no reason to offend people across industries." Wu Haiyang treated Tang Zhitong with sincerity, and Tang Zhitong reciprocated with sincerity.

"Don't worry, I'm not stupid." Even so, Wu Haiyang still felt warm. He was planning for himself!
"And sister-in-law, if there are some malnourished patients when you go to the outpatient clinic, you must pay attention to your words and diagnosis. This is easy to cause problems." Tang Zhitong continued to remind.

"Thank you, Eucalyptus. If you didn't tell me, I really wouldn't be able to remember this."

　Guys, please give me some guaranteed monthly tickets! ! !
　　If the quantity cannot increase at the beginning of the month, it will basically be finished later...
