In order to ensure the supply of basic daily necessities, buying things in the market requires not only food stamps and cloth stamps, but also industrial coupons.
The conditions for issuing industrial coupons are very interesting.
It is paid in proportion to the salary income of active employees.
average.
For every 20 yuan of salary, you can receive an industrial coupon.
The range of products purchased with industrial coupons is also relatively wide, such as towels, blankets, batteries, umbrellas, and even cigarettes, tea and liquor beyond the quota.
The original intention is good.
But this also brought about many problems.
For example, there is more supply for urban residents and less supply for rural residents, and the gap between workers and farmers is highlighted.
The supply varies from place to place, and regional differences are even more obvious.
Plus.
In order to maintain price stability, the country often sells things purchased with industrial coupons at prices lower than cost.
As a result, price inversions frequently occur.
Many people buy low and sell high, activating the black market.
However, in 1992, industrial vouchers were completely cancelled.
After 1993, food stamps, gas stamps, and urban residents' food supply certificates were all cancelled, announcing the complete end of the "ticket era".
Yu Tian’s family.
They are all ‘mud-legged’.
Only the eldest sister Yu Xiu, who is married to a state-owned employee from another province, can receive industrial vouchers.
Water from afar cannot quench thirst from near.
Lin Changshui can help.
But Yu Tian didn't want to bother Mr. Lao Lin again and again.
"Yutian, you have to get two machines over quickly!" Zhang Wenxiang solemnly ordered, "Otherwise, it will waste time, and I can't stay with you all the time! If it takes a long time, I will go and dump cotton first, and wait for you to finish the sewing machine.
, come find me again.”
Where can this be done?
Seeing that people are coming to work tomorrow, we must get the sewing machine today.
"Uncle Zhang!"
Yu Tian waved his hand, "Don't be impatient, we are ready for everything now, we just need the east wind! Don't worry, I will leave now, and I will bring the sewing machine tomorrow morning! By the way, Uncle Zhang, you can come as usual tomorrow morning!"
Take advantage of the morning time to train the workers and teach them how to use the sock knitting machine."
The words fell.
Yu Tian turned around and left.
It happened that Li Wanrou came back with a bunch of fruits in her hands.
"I won't eat anymore."
Yu Tian talked briefly and then said, "Wanrou, don't be in a hurry to eat the good fruit. You can go home later and don't wait for me tonight. Also, tell Xiaofeng and ask her to come over tomorrow morning, doesn't she know a little bit about it?
Son? Follow Uncle Zhang to teach female workers, I will be back around noon tomorrow."
"Hello!"
When Li Wanrou answered, Yu Tian had already pedaled on the bicycle, and she shouted at his back, "Pay attention, don't... don't work so hard..."
Watching Yu Tian ride away, disappearing into the sunshine.
Li Wanrou felt very uncomfortable.
She seemed to have gotten used to Yu Tian's constant hard work after his change.
But I think.
This kind of happiness made Yu Tian endure too much suffering...
.....
ten minutes later.
Yu Tian appeared near the Dielianhua Dance Hall in the eastern suburbs of the county, carrying a large front door in his hand.
Arrived behind the door.
He turned left and right.
Near the corner, I finally found the person I was looking for.
"Toad!"
He slapped a short fat man who was 'selling' food stamps hard.
"ah!"
The fat man who was called a toad was shocked.
Look back and see clearly.
He immediately smiled with a smile on his face, stretched out his fat hand, and squeezed Yu Tian's shoulder hard, "Brother Tian, long time no see, I thought you were arrested like Sun Lao Er and Sun Lao San! In prison
It’s uncomfortable, just hope you’re okay!”
Toad is a lively person, his real name is Han Meng.
The reason why he was nicknamed "Toad" was not because of the homophonic similarity of his names.
He has a good personality.
The people are quite down to earth.
He just doesn't know what he says, loves to joke, and sometimes offends people without even realizing it.
Yu Tian understands him.
So I don't mind.
After the toad turned around, Yu Tian wanted to get to the point.
But after seeing this face clearly, he froze on the spot.
Taking a deep breath, I felt that everything was so unreal, as if I was in another world.
This face.
Yu Tian was extremely impressed.
He remembers.
In a previous life, I saw a news report about toad in a local newspaper a few years later.
then.
Toad was sentenced to death for rape.
In the photo, he is wearing a wooden shackle around his neck, standing on a large truck, his head lowered, being dragged to the execution ground under the watch of a kind of crowd.
But the interesting thing is.
A few years later.
In the same local newspaper.
News broke again that Toad was innocent.
The above information is stated.
Toad was originally framed by someone, and he was made a poor scapegoat based on his own motives.
"Brother Tian, what are you doing standing still? You don't recognize me anymore?"
Seeing Yu Tian in a daze, Toad pinched his arm again.
After feeling the normal warmth, Yucai calmed down and said, "Well... toad, I want to ask something."
"Just say it!"
Toad raised his eyebrows, put the food stamps in his pocket, and pulled Yu Tian aside, "Brother Tian, you're welcome, if you have anything you want to ask, just ask! Don't you know me yet? I, Toad, am the most loyal and knowledgeable.
It can be said that no one knows more about black market transactions than me!"
"Smoke first."
Yu Tian opened the package and lit one for the toad, "It's not difficult. I want to get a sewing machine."
"That's it?"
Toad thought for a moment and said, "Two days, I'll contact you in two days and keep it safe."
Two days is not enough.
Yu Tian wants it now, preferably tonight.
He simply stuffed a cigarette into Toad and said, "Brother, I'm really anxious. I want it tonight. You see, whether it's industrial coupons or equipment, as long as you can buy it, it doesn't matter if the price is a little higher!"
"
The meaning of the words is obvious.
Yu Tian was anxious and would rather increase the price and give Toad some room to win.
After all, it’s easy to do things if you have money.
The toad collected the smoke.
But he just smiled.
With a big grin, Yi Bo Yuntian said, "Brother Tian, I can do it for you. As for the money, I will tell you how much the other party wants, no matter how much you increase the price! Have you forgotten? When I was beaten before, you
You even helped me out. I have always regarded you as a good brother. I just accept the cigarette. Just wait, I will take care of the matter now!"
When people get along with each other, the most important thing is feeling.
Toad also worked in the county town, was familiar with Yu Tian, and received help from him.
Although for Yu Tian, it was just an itchy hand at the time.
But this matter.
Toad kept it in his heart and never forgot this kindness.
Is loyalty a good thing?
Everyone's judgment standards are different.
But loyalty.
But in the end, the toad was killed.
"OK."
Yu Tian patted his shoulder solemnly, "Toad, I'll be waiting for you in the ballroom. It just so happens that I'm going in to look for some acquaintances."
"Just take a look."
Toad thought for a while, "By the way, Brother Tian, lend me your bicycle. It's too slow to walk. Uh... It'll take about three or two hours. Just wait for me and I'll definitely come back and give you a message."
Toad got on his bicycle and rode away.
A flash of smoke.
Disappeared from Yu Tian's sight.
It's almost evening.
Yu Tian found a small shop next to the dance hall to eat something.
While eating.
He was still thinking about something.
It is only a matter of time before we deal with a little guy like Li Jianguo.
What he cares more about is future development.
Think about it.
His eyes wandered away from the window.
At this time.
I saw Xiao Taoer holding Feng Bin's arm and walking out of the dance hall.
"Boss Feng, let's make an appointment. Let's meet at the agreed place tomorrow night!"
Little Tao'er is coquettish and sultry, and her pair of peach blossom eyes are so charming.
"good!"
Feng Bin greedily patted Xiao Tao'er's butt, "Tomorrow night, definitely, my baby!"
