How to Thrive in the ’60s

Aunt Wu nodded, "Yes, yes, but if you are really satisfied with these rooms, you'd better go through the formalities as soon as possible. There are not many good houses in Fenyang, and this kind of spacious house with thatched cottage can be sold quickly. After a day or two, someone else bought it, and you won't be able to live together in the future."

Aunt Wu had a lot of things to do, so she left in a hurry after seeing the house.

Gu Shinian asked about the location of the train station, took Yunshang and Yun Shuilian on the tram, and found a hostel near the train station to stay.

After dinner, Gu Shinian pulled Yun Chang to knock on Yun Shuilian's door, and said in the other's doubtful eyes:

"Aunt Yun, in addition to the suite on the second floor, which of the remaining two rooms do you want?"

Yun Shuilian squinted her eyes, "Sh Nian, didn't you fool Aunt Wu just now? Can you really get food?"

"Well, I'll take Ah Chang out later, and let someone help bring some food back." Gu Shinian paused, and then continued, "A Chang likes a big suite, so I'll buy the suite for Ah Chang tomorrow. Now, the remaining two rooms will be traded in two days."

Yun Shuilian looked at Yun Chang, and then at Gu Shinian, the expression on her face was quite wonderful.

"This... This house is too expensive, why not? Comrade Lin is not going to buy a house for Chang Nan, let's buy the house first. I won't buy it. When I enter the aluminum factory, I will apply for it. living in the staff dormitory.”

"Gu, you don't have a household registration in the city, even if you enter the aluminum factory, you are a temporary worker, and the temporary worker should not be assigned a dormitory. The small western-style buildings we saw today are very lavish, and the houses are good, and it is rare to encounter a house that can be next to each other. , you can't miss it."

"Aunt Yun, you don't have to worry about the food issue. Choose a room you like. I'll give you the food to buy the house first. When you start working, I will slowly convert the food for the house into money and return it to me."

Yun Chang and Gu Shinian both said so, plus a few rooms are really good, and there are not many chances to meet a good house, Yun Shuilian quickly nodded and agreed.

"I'll choose the one on the third floor. I've taken all of you again this time. Don't worry, I'll return the money for the house as soon as possible."

Gu Shinian nodded, "Then I'll buy the two downstairs rooms with Ah Chang, and Grandpa Yun will come over later, if there's not enough room upstairs, you can also live in my room, and I'll live with Ah Chang. "

Yun Shuilian was a little confused.

Gu Shinian's words are nothing to hear, but when you think about it carefully, why is it so inappropriate?

Yun Chang is the granddaughter of their old Yun family, and should be closer to the old couple, but when it came to Gu Shinian's mouth, it seemed that he and Yun Chang were the closest family, but the old couple became outsiders.

Yun Shuilian didn't know how to respond to Gu Shinian's words for a while.

Yun Chang didn't know what Yun Shuilian was thinking, lying in her arms, her little body almost twisted into a twist, "Gu, my second brother Gu has money, we don't have to rush to pay it back. By the way, aunt, When I want to go out with second brother Gu, you can put it in the room and help me think about it, what should I add to my big room, we will arrange the room for me tomorrow after the formalities."

After receiving the task assigned by Yunshang, Yun Shuilian was no longer bored to stay in the room alone. She spread out the pencil and notebook that Yunshang gave, and remembered the things that needed to be added in the suite.

In the darkness of the night, Gu Shinian was holding Yunshang and slowly wandering around the train station. When he saw someone with a cloth bag in his arms, he turned in along the alley, and he also quickened his pace to follow.

After walking about 700 to 800 meters, there were more shadowy figures in front of him. Gu Shinian knew in his heart that this should be the black market near Fenyang Railway Station.

The two walked around in the past and found that the black market in Fenyang is obviously much more depressed than the provincial capital. Not only are there fewer people, but there are also few materials. On the black market, there is not even a single person selling eggs and meat.

Thinking about it, it’s not long after the New Year, and the task pigs in various places have been handed in years ago. Now the village households are all piglets, and there is no pork for sale.

The two walked around the black market, walked out of the alley, took out the flatbed truck from the space, put 50 catties of rice and 50 catties of white flour on the car, and pushed the car back to the black market.

Right now, it’s the month of March, and there are still two to three months before the new grains arrive. There is a shortage of grains everywhere, and only coarse grains are distributed in grain stores. Many people have not seen refined grains for several months.

Those coarse grains are terribly rough, and the throat hurts after eating them. The adults can deal with them.

Gu Shinian came over with a cart, and the cart was loaded with fine white rice and noodles. Then I heard that these refined grains were used for coarse grains. The people on the black market almost started fighting, and they all swarmed. rushing to replace.

One hundred catties of fine grains were replaced with three hundred and fifty catties of coarse grains in just twenty minutes. Gu Shinian and Yunshang did not waste time. After changing the grains, they pushed the cart and left.

Aware that there was no one around, Yunshang even took the car and the food in the space, and then went around in a circle and returned to the guest house in the dark.

Entering the room, Yunshang prepared a batch of sweet potatoes in the space, mixed with two bags of corn ballast, and packed the coarse grains that were exchanged for the night separately, ready to be paired with the transaction.

………………

Yun Shuilian was woken up by Yun Chang early in the morning, and when she finished packing and went downstairs, she found that Gu Shinian had been waiting outside.

There was also a flatbed truck beside it, which should be filled with food, and it was bulging, but it was covered with a layer of torn canvas, which did not look so conspicuous.

Yun Shuilian was amazed at the speed at which Gu Shinian was scouring the food, but she was very sensible and did not ask more. She put Yun Chang on the flatbed truck and automatically took on the heavy responsibility of pulling the cart.

Before coming to Fenyang, Yunshang had already prepared the household registration booklet at home, and specially asked the old village chief to issue a letter of introduction and a certificate of moving out of the household registration.

With the help of Aunt Wu, several people completed the transfer procedures with the owner of the house, and with the newly released hot deed, went to the public security next door to go through the household registration procedures.

Several public security officers in the household registration department looked at the six-year-old head of the household, which was flush with the table.

After reading the house deed and looking at the letter of introduction, after reading the letter of introduction and the certificate of moving out of the household registration, it is almost enough to turn over the eighteen generations of Yunshang's ancestors.

Fortunately, Yun Shuilian's nominal aunt was with him, and I heard that the only elder in Yunshang's family was mad, and the household registration procedures were complete. The original owner of this house in Fenyang did not have any problems. The police are strange and strange, and they still go through various formalities with ease.

Yun Chang took over the newly released red book, looked at the owner's name in the column, and then looked at the new address behind, and her heart was so beautiful that it was about to bloom.
