Chapter 14

The breakfast shop, the only breakfast shop in Longyang Town, is opposite Longyang Junior High School.And some public offices in the town are also nearby.

It takes more than ten minutes to walk here from home.

There is no formal shop, even if you don't look carefully, there is a word "早" hanging on the window of a house, Luo Chengcheng will not think it is a breakfast shop.

It's no wonder that Luo Cheng couldn't recognize it, because it has nothing to do with the breakfast shop in my impression, even if it is played in a TV series, there is no such thing.

There is a person sitting at the door. If you want to buy breakfast, you have to check whether you have food stamps.If there is, you will be let in to pick breakfast.

In fact, it’s no wonder that it’s sold early. This is a famine year, and many people are so hungry that they want to eat a bite before dying of starvation.

Any place that sells food related to food in the town is basically forcibly snatched by some hungry people.Some people say that they buy breakfast and eat right after they get it, and then frankly say that they have no money, let alone food stamps, so what if you call the police, and they don't resist.

Fortunately, the breakfast shop is owned by the public. If it was a private one, in this world, if you are forced to eat the king's meal a few times, it would have closed down long ago.There is no other way now, I don't even take out the food, and I have to "verify capital" first to buy breakfast.

If you feel uncomfortable and think that people suspect that you can't afford it, you don't have to buy it and leave.The chef who cooks breakfast is not afraid of not being able to sell it, as long as it is not sold, it will be disposed of to certain units, and they will treat it as a work meal.

"National food stamps, isn't the little comrade a local?"

The chef who sold the breakfast saw that what Luo Cheng took out was a national food stamp, and Luo Cheng spoke in Mandarin, so he asked.

"Master, this is my brother. He just came back from a foreign army, and he is used to speaking Mandarin outside. He is a local, so don't count my brother's food stamp too much."

Hearing the breakfast master's question, Luo Xiaoyu hurriedly answered instead of Luo Cheng.

Hearing Luo Xiaoyu's answer, the breakfast chef nodded. It is impossible to count more food stamps, but if he is not a local and uses national food stamps to buy things, then he will count them as ordinary food stamps.But since he is a local or returned from the army, the natural calculation is different.

Generally, one or two food stamps are required for food, Luo Cheng will give food stamps to the whole country, and he can give one, two or three food stamps for one or two food stamps.The province will say that he is cheating people. Although the national food stamps are more valuable than the regional food stamps, that is a private statement.On the bright side, any food stamp should be calculated according to the amount marked.

Asked about the price, the price is really cheap.Especially the pancakes, which were gray, seemed to have little appetite for Luo Cheng.But it was really big, Luo Cheng felt that one pancake would be enough for him to eat.The price is only five cents.

As for the steamed buns, they are also much larger than those of later generations.The steamed buns were not as white as the one Luo Cheng brought back from the army, and so were the steamed buns, which were a bit off-white.

Buns and steamed buns cost three cents each, which was the same price in those years before there was no famine.

Some people have to ask, isn't the price of food going up in this famine year?In fact, the price has not risen, at least the grain in grain stations and supply and marketing cooperatives has not increased.But the rations for urban residents have been reduced, and they can no longer receive so many tickets every month.

Without food stamps, even if you have money, you can’t buy food at grain stations and supply and marketing cooperatives.When buying things in Pigeon City, what some people lack is not money, but tickets.So in Pigeon City, food has indeed increased a lot, it can be said to have doubled.

But if you have food stamps, you can buy food at normal prices.

Rice and flour are still [-] cents, corn is [-] cents, pork is [-] cents, cornmeal is [-] cents, and sweet potatoes are even cheaper.

A large pancake in the breakfast shop, Luo Cheng felt that it weighed half a catty, it was really thick, but anyone who knows food knows that it is similar to stick noodles.Two cakes are more than one catty, and they only cost ten cents, but if you go to buy stick noodles by yourself, you can buy two catties for one wool ball.

Those who know how to live will count this account, so those who can usually eat breakfast outside are indeed from families that are relatively well-off.Eating breakfast outside can be bragging in front of the neighbors, but as for eating out to a restaurant, that is even more remarkable.

For a few cents, plus a catty of food stamps, Luo Cheng bought a big push of breakfast.According to the weight of the grain, it must be more than a catty, but what Luo Cheng gave was the national food stamp, and the flatbread was coarse grains, so they could not be sold as fine grains.

Anyway, the breakfast master was a real person. He knew that Luo Cheng was a local and had returned from serving as a soldier, so he didn't overcharge him for food stamps.

After buying breakfast, Luo Chengcheng and his younger sister went home, and he took a bite of a pancake on the way.His brows furrowed. If such cakes were to be eaten in later generations, people would not eat them for nothing.Not to mention the taste, but the taste~~how can I say it, it is very difficult to swallow, and it hurts the throat.

After taking a bite of the pancake, they threw it directly to Luo Xiaoyu and the others, and they naturally wouldn't dislike the pancake that Luo Cheng had bitten into.For them, there is no such feeling at all. Compared with Wotou, this flatbread is much more delicious.

Luo Cheng didn't really like steamed buns either, but the vegetarian buns in the breakfast shop tasted pretty good.Luo Cheng finally found something that suits his appetite.But flatbreads and steamed buns are the most bought, mainly because they followed Luo Xiaoyu's suggestion. The vegetarian buns have vegetable fillings, and the vegetables have no face value.

Buying steamed buns and pancakes will definitely make parents like it. Although vegetarian buns are delicious, they are not cost-effective.Also, grandma is getting older, so buy some for her to try.

When Luo Cheng and the others came back, his father, Luo Wen, also asked for leave from the brigade and came back.It was not far away at first, and buying grain is a major event, and this year is not as usual, so it is true that several people should go together to buy grain, so it is safe.So the people in the brigade let him back without any fuss.

"Dad, why don't you eat steamed buns? There are not many vegetarian buns, and my sister won't let you buy more."

"What kind of steamed buns do you want to eat? Give me a pancake. It's right if you don't buy more vegetarian buns. It's not worth it. The price is the same as steamed buns. I like to eat this big pancake, it's chewy."

Back at the house, my father was squatting at the door.His mother had already told him that Luo Cheng and the others had gone to buy breakfast. When they didn't come back, Luo Wen was still nagging his mother, saying that the child was capable, but the money was a bit extravagant, and he was not very good at living. I have to find a wife to take care of it.

But after seeing Duo Luocheng, my father didn't say a word, just like grandma said, my eldest grandson is capable, and he can eat white flour steamed buns as soon as he comes back, and he can also eat vegetarian buns.You are a son who knows how to live, but why don't you get white flour steamed buns for your mother to eat.

It is absolutely taboo to say that Luo Cheng is not good by Grandma's side.Intergenerational relatives are not just for fun, and grandma's intergenerational relatives are only one person.Luo Bing was not very pleasing to her eyes, and the two younger sisters were all little girls in her eyes, and sooner or later they would belong to someone else's family.Only Luo Chengcai is the most precious.

To be honest, Luo Cheng's grandma was well prepared that she wouldn't survive this winter, but now it's just over a day, and she feels that she can still survive.

 If it's a big city, BJ's Forty-Nine City and the like in this era, of course the situation is not bad.But it’s really not just making up, especially in the past two years of famine, as long as it is related to food, it is really important.

  People are starving to death, and they will talk to you about morality. Many people eat rice directly.No one really wants to die, but if they really want to die, what they want most is to eat something before they die.
