Siheyuan: I Actually Crossed Into A Stick

Chapter 7 The Black Market Price Is Too High (Seeking Flower Evaluation)

The coarse grains are just some cornmeal, that is, cornmeal.

It can be made into Wowotou, but the taste is hard to describe, and it is very difficult to swallow. It is usually eaten with rice soup.

The cold corn bread is as hard as a rock, the kind that can't be chewed.

Not to mention the white flour in fine grains, that is, flour, which is ground into powder from wheat.

A catty of white flour is only 0.18 yuan, but a small grain ticket alone costs three yuan.

Similarly, the price of going to the grain store to buy a catty of white noodles is almost equal to the price of food stamps.

It seems that the impact of three years of natural disasters is too great.

No wonder, in the previous life, there was a statistic that if grain production was reduced by 1%, grain prices would skyrocket by 460%.

Because no one wants to starve to death because they cannot buy food, and the consequences of frantic grabbing of food will cause food prices to skyrocket.

Therefore, why later generations respect Yuan Lao so much is because hybrid rice can yield 30% more.

It is conceivable how great this feat is!

From the original memory, he also heard from the elders in his family that more than ten years ago, a large number of unscrupulous capitalists in the capital jointly raised the price of grain and raised the price of grain several times. , miserable.

Although the food stamp policy is a little more troublesome now, it ensures that capitalists cannot hoard and raise prices.

At the same time, it at least guarantees that there is a bite to eat, so as not to starve to death.

"It seems that we should buy some seeds and plant them as soon as possible!"

Jia Geng thought to himself.

The ration in the food book at home is not enough to eat at all.

The food station will give a corresponding number of food stamps according to the ration of each household.

If you go to a designated grain station to buy grain, you have to spend the corresponding food stamps and money.

For example, Qin Huairu's monthly ration is 20 catties of coarse grains, 5 catties of coarse and fine grains, and 2 catties of fine grains.

Also due to three years of natural disasters, food production has been reduced, and the rations of all families have been reduced compared to before.

And I am a primary school student, so the ration will be reduced by half.

There are even fewer two younger sisters. Since my grandma has a rural household registration, there is no quota.

If there is not enough food, we can only spend money to buy food.

According to the total ration of a family of 4, the food station will give out as many food stamps as possible.

Of course, a family still has one catty of meat tickets and half a catty of oil tickets a month.

But usually they are sold by Qin Huairu in exchange for food.

Fortunately, my mother usually doesn't need food stamps when she eats in the canteen of the rolling mill. She just spends money on meal tickets, which of course are only for an adult.

Therefore, a family of five can barely eat half full.

The ration of less than 30 catties of grain may not be able to eat so much in a month for future generations.

That's because people in later generations still have a lot of non-staple food, snacks and drinks.

But people in this era only have such a little amount in a month.

Jia Geng understands that if the ration is doubled, it can be regarded as barely enough to eat.

Soon, while investigating the market price, he discovered that someone was selling rabbits.

A man dressed as a peasant uncle led a cage.

Inside the cage was a rabbit.

The rabbit is not big, it is estimated to weigh only two catties.

Because farmers have neither food books nor food stamps, they usually exchange some food stamps or money with domestic agricultural products on the black market.

Then someone came to ask the price.

"How do you sell this rabbit?"

"Four yuan a catty."

"Weigh it for me."

"Okay, look, two catties and two taels."

"Give."

Seeing the completion of the transaction between the two, Jia Geng was ecstatic in his heart.

This rabbit is alive, and it costs 4 yuan a catty, so the ten rabbits in my space are worth more than one hundred at least.

Soon, he knew why rabbit meat was so expensive.

Because, I saw someone trading meat tickets just now.

A catty of meat ticket actually costs 6 yuan.

Jia Geng was immediately stunned.

The pork in the meat market is only 0.68 yuan per catty.

It costs as much as 6.68 yuan to buy a catty of pork.

No wonder the monthly ration of pork at home was replaced by my mother.

The ration of pork in my home is one catty, so I can exchange it for six catties of coarse grains.

To be honest, a catty of pork is not enough for Jia Geng to eat by himself.

And six catties of coarse grains are enough for a family of five to eat for a few days.

After all, it is better than starving to death than having a bite to eat.

Jia Geng took out a bag, which is still the bag used for food at home.

Since the pocket was empty, he thought of using it to hold the rabbit.

As soon as the thought moved, a rabbit appeared in the pocket.

As soon as it was put out, someone came to ask the price.

"How do you sell this rabbit?"

Jia Geng didn't expect someone to come so soon, so he said, "4 yuan a catty."

"It's a bit too expensive, three yuan and five, how about it?" The visitor tried to negotiate the price.

Jia Geng would definitely not agree!
