Era: I have a two-world door

Chapter 39, Industrial Vouchers
  The second brother came back after a while, carrying a lunch box, and said with a smile: "You guys are in for a treat today! If you hadn't been hospitalized with a fever, you wouldn't be able to open this thing! Take a look, what's so good about it?" "

He said mysteriously while opening the lunch box.

Wang Qingsong couldn't speak, so the second brother chuckled: "Pork liver and egg soup!! It's good! Eat it quickly, there are two steamed buns here."

He smiled and handed the lunch box to him.

Wang Qingsong took the thing and looked at it.

It is indeed a good thing.

No meat is currently released to the market. Those who can eat pork liver and eggs are either patients or people with special needs.

Smelling the fragrance, he was not very hungry at first, but felt that his greed was aroused.

But he didn't eat, and looked at Wang Qinghe: "Second brother, what time is it now? Have you eaten?"

Hearing this, Wang Qinghe raised his hand and looked at his watch: "It's almost one o'clock!"

He stopped his hand and said with a smile: "It's okay, I bought some food at the door! Eat it quickly!"

Wang Qingsong nodded when he heard this and started to eat. However, while eating, his arms were still tightly clamped by him to prevent the thermometer from falling off.

"Suck it~~"

Eat a bite of steamed buns and drink some soup.

So fresh!

After a while, the nurse from before came over: "Give me the thermometer!"

Wang Qinghe stood up quickly when he saw this, took it for him and handed it over: "Nurse, how are you? Do you still have a fever?"

The nurse took a look, flicked the thermometer, and said, "The fever is gone. We'll keep an eye on him for a while. If there's no problem, we can leave the hospital."

"Hey, okay, thank you nurse!"

Wang Qinghe thanked the nurse.

"You're welcome! Go back and drink more water and rest more!"

After explaining, he left directly.

After everyone left, Wang Qingsong saw his second brother sitting down and then said: "Second brother, I want to ask you something!"

Wang Qinghe just sat down and smiled when he heard this: "You can ask!"

Then he thought of something and asked: "By the way, why did you come to see me so early today? Is there something urgent?"

Hearing this, Wang Qingsong did not answer: "I'll talk about this later, but I want to ask about another thing. If I want to give someone a gift, what should I give it to?"

Finally, I did not forget to mention the situation: "She is a woman, about twenty years old."

As soon as these words came out, Wang Qinghe's eyes lit up: "Hey!! Lao San, what's going on? Is there a lover? Whose girl is it?"

You have to be 20 years old to get married in the city.

But in rural areas, the average age is around 16 or 17, so it is normal for the third child to fall in love with a girl.

After all, the third child is already fifteen.

Wang Qingsong rolled his eyes at him angrily when he heard this: "What nonsense are you talking about! It's a friend who helped me a lot. I'm thinking of how to thank him!"

If anyone else had asked, he might have blushed.

But my second brother, there is no need.

"Tsk tsk~~Really or not?"

"Nonsense!! Of course it's true! I just want to thank you for your help!"

Children in rural areas are already sensible. In the past two years, he has also learned a lot about the ways of the world.

I have to thank someone for helping me so much!
  After hearing this, Wang Qinghe looked at his expression again and felt that the third child didn't look like he was telling lies.

And the woman is in her twenties, so the age difference is a bit big, so maybe not.

He pondered for a moment and asked: "Then what do you want to give me?"

While Wang Qingsong was eating, he thought about it and shook his head, and said awkwardly: "I don't know either! If I knew, I would still ask you!"

Hearing this, Wang Qinghe pondered for a moment and said: "If it's just a simple thank you, either give me clothes or cream, the kind that comes in glass, don't buy bags, cream is a good thing!! Which woman? I like it all, but the price is a bit expensive, more than two yuan!”

Then he continued to ask: "Is she married? Is she from the city or from the countryside?"

Wang Qingsong thought for a while and shook his head: "She must not be married! She must be from the city!"

He is not sure either!
  I went there twice, but I didn’t see any men at home!
  Otherwise, there would be no place to explain himself if he was beaten to death.

Wang Qinghe pondered for a moment and said: "If she is not married, it is not appropriate for you to give these. Then she has family members at home, so you can give other things, such as cigarettes, alcohol and so on!"

Wang Qingsong also felt that giving away clothes was a bit abrupt.

And he had also seen the clothes they wore, which were simply exquisite.

Thinking of this, he decided to give cigarettes and wine, at least these can be given to the other party's elders, although he has never met them.

But he secretly thought about buying a bottle of cream when the time comes.

This thing is a good thing, every girl likes it.

It smells good after applying it.

He smelled the fragrance of the other person that day, and he must like this.

He made up his mind to buy what he thought was a 'high-end cosmetic', and then asked his second brother: "What kind of tobacco and alcohol should I buy? What kind of tobacco and alcohol are the best?"

When Wang Qinghe heard this, he clicked his tongue: "That's not a small tone! Maotai is the best, can you get a ticket? That thing is very respectable, and division-level cadres only have one or two bottles a year. The price is also It’s so expensive, 4 yuan and 7 cents a bottle.”

Wang Qingsong also nodded in approval.

This wine is indeed the hardest wine to buy right now.

But thinking about it, I wonder if this wine is rare over there!
  But I can’t get tickets for this thing, so I have no choice.

Then he frowned and said, "But other drinks also require tickets!"

In the past, some drinks were free of charge, but since these difficult times, all drinks require tickets, making it very difficult to buy.

Wang Qinghe shrugged: "There's no way! It's hard to get even this now, and now you need industrial coupons. Drinking coupons are even harder to get."

"Industrial coupons? What are those?"

Wang Qingsong asked strangely.

"Don't you know? Didn't you go to school in the county?"

Wang Qinghe was confused for a moment, and then realized: "Oh, when the industrial coupons were issued, you were on vacation, and it was Yue Yue who got your hair this month."

Then he started to explain.

Industrial coupons.

It is paid to employees in proportion to their salary income, with an average of one coupon for every 20 yuan of salary.

The unit is "Zhang"

The smallest face value is 0.1 pieces.

Moreover, the range of goods purchased with industrial vouchers is particularly wide: towels, blankets, wool, handkerchiefs, batteries, shafts, iron pots, aluminum basins, aluminum lunch boxes, enamel basins, enamel cups, enamel bedpans, thread gloves, kettles, sports Shoes, umbrellas, cotton rubber shoes, sewing needles, sewing thread, oilcloth raincoats, laminated raincoats, artificial cotton products, nylon underwear, leather shoes, alarm clocks, radios, belts, knives and scissors, imported blades, various bags, chocolate candies Block etc.

As well as cigarettes, tea, liquor, etc. outside the quota.

And the most important point is that every dollar of something consumes one industrial coupon.

(Many period novels state that one coupon is issued for 20 yuan. In fact, one coupon is used for each yuan.)
  Matches cost 2 cents a box, so use 0.1.

After Wang Qinghe finished speaking, he said to him: "Your second brother, I issued 28 face value industrial coupons for 5 yuan a month. I will issue 1.4 coupons next month after I have collected them all." Hearing this, Wang Qingsong was confused for a while: "Isn't it? Is it so difficult? Even if you have a ticket?"

He is also planning to buy an iron pot!

If this is to collect industrial coupons, where did he get the coupons?
  Even matches require coupons!

You don’t need industrial coupons to buy cloth, but if you buy finished clothes like those in the mall, you don’t need cloth coupons, but industrial coupons.

"That's not true. Those within the quota do not need coupons. Most of the remaining supplies require industrial coupons. As for the tickets, they will be issued in the form of rewards by units or streets in the future, which are relatively small."

After hearing this, Wang Qingsong understood.

But it’s also awesome.

The ration is the ration book of Er Ge and the others. There are not many types on it, just some rice, flour, grains and oils and a small amount of non-staple food.

Then he looked at the watch in the second brother's hand and asked: "Second brother, if you say so, if you don't have a ticket for this watch, wouldn't it cost 60 industrial coupons? How long do you have to save to afford it? !”

Wang Qinghe nodded: "Yes! Who says it's not!"

Hearing this, Wang Qingsong looked at him: "Second brother, let's forget it! With your ration, you have three packs of cigarettes a month, enough to stuff your teeth. Even if you don't buy other things, just buy cigarettes. You I can just buy a few packs.”

The second brother has a monthly quota of cigarettes, two packs a month.

But as a long-time smoker, he finished it in two days.

What a waste.

Even if you add his 1.4 industrial coupons, they are useless!

Not to mention the wine.

Wang Qinghe chuckled: "It's okay, second brother will find a way for you!"

"What are you thinking of? Do you want to buy it on the black market?"

"Tsk, tsk, I can't afford it on the black market! Do you know how much an industrial coupon costs on the black market now?"

After Wang Qinghe finished speaking, without waiting for his reply, he made a gesture: "Three yuan for one ticket!"

While talking, he also clicked his tongue.

I lament that this thing is so expensive.

After listening, Wang Qingsong stopped talking and ate pork liver soup and bit into a big white steamed bun.

Damn, it’s too expensive.

He originally thought about buying a second-hand watch!
  Because he wanted to test how long it would take to get there, so that he could control his time in the future.

And when you have time to wake up in the morning, you don’t have to worry about oversleeping and getting up too early.

Now it seems that it is better to forget it.

"Oh, by the way! Not only industrial stamps, but also non-staple food stamps were issued."

"Food stamps?"

"Yes, you will be given one as a salary of five yuan. In the future, you will have to use it to buy things other than the ration and related to food, such as pastries. If you don't have pastry stamps, you can also use non-staple food stamps. One yuan will be used for non-staple food stamps. Voucher.”

After hearing this, Wang Qingsong no longer wanted to hear it.

Come on, it will be so troublesome to buy things in the future. Now I can’t spend it even if I have money!

But he has supplies, so he doesn’t have to worry about this and can take his time.

After Xilihulu finished eating, he handed over the lunch box.

Wang Qinghe took the lunch box and put it aside, and asked: "Why are you looking for me? You come to me so early in the morning, there must be something wrong! Tell me! What are you doing!"

He knew his younger brother.

There must be something important.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have come here if I had a fever. After all, I just left here yesterday.

After Wang Qingsong heard this, he thought about it and said, "Wait a moment! Wait until we get out of the hospital. It's not convenient to talk here!"

"What are you doing, kid! You're doing it so mysteriously!!"

After Wang Qinghe finished speaking, he stood up directly: "Okay, I'll clean up the lunch box and refund the deposit!"

After that, he left directly.

After watching his second brother leave, Wang Qingsong lay on the bed and thought about what he was holding.

It would be a shame to exchange it for money.

Most of it was used in exchange for food, and a small part was used in exchange for other things that were in short supply.

Such as cotton shoes and so on!
  As for the other icing on the cake, he planned to go there and exchange it for money, and then find a way to come back and exchange it.

Solve the problem of food and clothing first.

He was also worried that the Bagua Mirror would suddenly stop working, and he would have to rely on himself by then. He had to stock up on enough food and drink before talking about anything else.

After eating, I felt a little sleepy, and then I lay down on the bed and fell asleep.

"Slow down, slow down!!"

While thinking, there was a loud noise in the room.

Wang Qingsong opened his eyes and saw several people carrying a man with an injured head to the bed next door, with gauze still wrapped around his head.

"Awake?"

In the midst of his thoughts, the second brother's voice came.

Wang Qingsong turned his head and looked at it: "Second brother, how long have I been asleep again?"

"Two hours!"

After Wang Qinghe finished speaking, he asked, "Do you feel uncomfortable somewhere?"

Hearing this, Wang Qingsong moved and shook his head: "It's okay. I feel much better and have more energy."

"That's good. Get up and go if you feel better! After your fever subsided, you are no longer qualified to be hospitalized. The nurse came over and urged you several times."

"Oh, then I'll get up!"

Then he got dressed.

In fact, it was just a jacket and I didn’t even take off my pants.

After putting on their cotton shoes and getting out of bed, the two of them walked outside together.

When he came to the lobby, his second brother asked him to wait here while he went to go through the discharge procedures.

After a while, the other party paid and came over: "Okay, I've given you the money, let's go!"

Wang Qingsong didn't ask about the money. He knew that he was in a hurry after asking his second brother, and he relied on his second brother's support to survive!

Then the two left the hospital.

"Put this away! There are two antipyretic pills in total. Take one when you have a fever. I'll go get the car. You wait for me here."

After coming out, Wang Qinghe handed him a small white paper bag, folded neatly.

Wang Qingsong nodded when he saw this and watched his second brother leave. He opened the paper bag and took a look. There were two large white particles lying inside.

There are three words printed on it: "Anaijin"

After looking at it, he folded the medicine and put it away.
