"Fang Yuan, you are really good." After entering the office building, the director said to Fang Yuan.

"Hehehe!" Fangyuan giggled a few times, scratched his head and said, "I didn't do anything. Besides, I got it in exchange for something."

The factory director knew that although Fangyuan said it was easy, it was not easy to do it.

If it were him, he might not be able to exchange those materials for pigs, because pigs are currently important supplies.

In fact, not only pigs, but now as long as they stick to food, they are important materials, but pigs are more special.

"You kid." The factory director shook his head.

Fangyuan will not take the credit because he has already got what he wants, five hundred catties of fine grain stamps, one thousand catties of coarse and fine grain stamps and two thousand catties of coarse grain stamps.

These are enough for him to make for a while, but it is better to get rid of the coarse and fine grain stamps and coarse grain stamps as soon as possible.

It will be 1961 soon, and the three-year difficult period will soon be over. By then, these food stamps will be worthless.

The three-year difficult period started from the beginning of 1959 to the end of 1961. In fact, things got much better in the summer of 1961.

Because the summer grain harvest happened at this time, of course, it was only a little better. The real time to fully recover was after the sweet potatoes were harvested in 2001.

Because of the bumper harvest of sweet potatoes, the problem of hunger has basically been solved, and three years have really passed.

In other words, by next summer, the price of food stamps may drop, and by the end of next year, the price of food stamps on the black market will completely return to normal.

By that time, apart from fine grain stamps and national grain stamps which will still have some value, coarse grain stamps are probably not worth much at all.

Of course, by then there will no longer be such things as coarse and fine grain stamps, because these two kinds of grain stamps are the product of three years of difficult times.

Food is in short supply now, so special local food stamps have appeared in many places. Coarse food stamps and coarse and fine food stamps are the special food stamps of the imperial capital.

The so-called fine grain stamps are actually normal local grain stamps, which are the same as national grain stamps, except that one is local and the other is national.

Also, national food stamps carry fuel, but local food stamps do not. This is why national food stamps are more expensive than local food stamps.

When the three-year difficult period is over, even fine grain stamps will only cost about 20 cents per pound. This price was the same before and will be the same in the future.

The price of national food stamps is generally 25 cents per catty, which is five cents more expensive than local food stamps.

So the next thing Fangyuan has to do is to sell the thick and thin grain stamps and coarse grain stamps in his hand.

Because the fine grain coupons in his hand are enough, and may even be used up. In this case, why are he still doing it?

Of course, we still have to keep some. Their family doesn't need it, but some people do! For example, the little fat man's family, Li Weiguo's family, and the little girl Jin Wenli's family.

But you don’t need too much, it’s best to leave some thick and thin food stamps for them.

The little fat man’s family is in good condition, and twenty pounds a month is enough.

Jin Wenli's family has a large population and needs at least sixty pounds a month.

As for Li Wei's country, even if they give him food stamps, their family cannot afford it. In this case, they will use the food in his family's food book to supplement it.

Calculated in this way, there is exactly one thousand kilograms of coarse and fine grains that do not need to be sold, and can be used to subsidize the three of them.

Then the food stamps that Fangyuan can sell are only two thousand kilograms of coarse grain stamps, which is a lot of money.

Calculated at 80 cents per catty, it can be sold for 1,600 yuan, which just fills the gap where he currently has no money.

After staying in the office building for a while, the driver drove back and Fangyuan ran out quickly.

"Master, please go slow when you go back. You can take the food with you." Fang Yuan pointed to the paper bag on the passenger seat and said.

These are the steamed buns I bought in the city in the afternoon. There are five left, so let the driver take them home.

"Thank you, I'll go back then."

"Okay, be careful on the road."

After the driver left, Fangyuan said hello to the factory director and went back. If he came back so late today, he would probably be blamed again if he went back.

After returning to the family home, Fangyuan quietly came to the door of the house, pushed the door gently, and the door opened.

This was what he had agreed with Third Sister before he left. If he came back late, he would ask Third Sister to secretly leave the door open for him. It seemed that Third Sister had not forgotten it.

Fangyuan didn't turn on the light, so he touched the bedroom door, pushed it open, and then touched the side.

"You brat, do you still know how to come back?" Just when Fangyuan got into bed, the eldest sister lifted the quilt for him and said.

"Uh! Sister, why aren't you asleep yet?" Fang Yuan asked in a low voice.

"Why are you still not asleep?"

"If you have anything to say, we'll talk about it tomorrow. Go to bed." Mom turned over and said.

It seems that not only the eldest sister is not asleep, but also the mother.

Fangyuan stuck out his tongue and quickly got into bed. The eldest sister helped him tuck the quilt in and then fell asleep.

The next morning, Fangyuan was woken up by the sound of a loudspeaker. As soon as he opened his eyes, he heard the factory loudspeaker shouting.

"All employees, please pay attention. All employees, please pay attention."

"There are two big fat pigs in the factory. Now all the workshop team leaders and above are invited to come to the factory auditorium for a meeting to study how to deal with these two pigs."

"Uh!" Fangyuan opened his mouth. He didn't expect that there would actually be a meeting to study it! He thought those people were just talking last night.

I didn’t expect it to be true, just two pigs! Fangyuan really can’t understand it.

"Mom, the factory has produced two pigs. Can every family get a share of the meat?" The second sister's voice came from the living room.

"What kind of meat can be divided between two pigs? I don't care about how many people there are in the factory. I think the most I can do is improve the food." Mom said.

"Okay, you have been eating less meat for a while, and you still want to eat it." The eldest sister said.

After the eldest sister told the second sister, she muttered again: "How strange! Where did the factory get the two pigs from?"

"Who knows! Maybe I bought it!" When my mother said this, she glanced into the bedroom.

She couldn't help but think otherwise! This thing was so strange. It was not too late. It was just that Fangyuan came back late last night, and it happened this morning.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

But even if she was suspicious, she would not ask, let alone say it. Who knows if there is something else involved?

"This loudspeaker is really annoying. It starts shouting before I wake up." Fang Yuan said as he came out of the bedroom.

When the eldest sister saw Fangyuan coming out, she smiled and said, "Then you go to sleep for a while. It's still early for dinner anyway."

"Forget it, I won't be able to sleep when I wake up." Fang Yuan rubbed his eyes and said.

"Then brush your teeth and wash your face! I'll get you some hot water."

"No need, sister, I can do it myself." Fangyuan hurried over and said.

"It's okay, you go brush your teeth first, and you can wash them after you finish brushing your teeth."

Fangyuan discovered that the eldest sister pampered him too much and would spoil him rotten. Of course, he would not say this.

Besides, it's not up to him to decide whether he can be spoiled or not. He can be spoiled if he wants to be spoiled, and he won't be spoiled no matter how spoiled he doesn't want to be.

"Hmm!"

Fangyuan nodded and went out to brush his teeth, because the faucet was in the yard.

In fact, Fangyuan is not used to washing his face with hot water at all, even in winter. He prefers to use cold water.

Because he feels that washing his face with cold water can make people sober. Of course, this is just his own feeling, but he has to accept the kindness of his eldest sister.

After brushing her teeth and washing her face, Fangyuan took the towel handed over by her eldest sister and asked, "Sister, does your supply and marketing cooperative have Red Star milk powder?"

"Yes! What for? Do you want to drink?"

Hearing what the eldest sister said, Fangyuan said dumbfounded: "What should I drink? I'm not a child."

"Uh! Aren't you a child?" the eldest sister asked.

"This..."

Fangyuan didn't know how to answer the eldest sister's words, so she scratched her head and stood there.

"I don't have milk powder tickets at home, so be it! I'll see who has the tickets later. I'll buy a pound, and I'll buy you a bag later."

"Sister, I really don't drink, and I have milk powder tickets."

"Ah! How come you have milk powder tickets?" The eldest sister looked at Fang Yuan in surprise.

Fangyuan gave the eldest sister a roll of her eyes and said, "Sister, have you forgotten that I bought milk powder?"

Hearing what Fangyuan said, the eldest sister patted her forehead and said, "That's right! How could I forget this."

After speaking, the eldest sister looked at Fang Yuan and asked: "Brother, how many milk powder tickets do you have left?"

"What for?"

"Don't you know how valuable milk powder tickets are? There are several families who give birth to children in family homes, but because they don't have milk powder tickets, their children are screaming from hunger."

"No, sister, you asked me to take it out to them!"

"Who asked you to give it to them? You can give it to them in exchange for something else."

Hearing what the eldest sister said, Fangyuan shook her head and said, "I don't lack anything else, and I don't want to change it."

Are you kidding? Milk powder is a good thing. How could he take it out and exchange it for others?
