No way, you can only rely on the mountains and rivers.
You don’t need to be greedy. When you close the stall every day, the spare ribs, heart, liver, lungs, pig heads and other bits and pieces you take home are enough to make many women in the village envious and jealous.
This is not the future where ribs are more expensive than meat.
Things like ribs are just piecemeal at this time. When the mother-in-law buys meat, you put a few pieces of ribs in for her and she has to fight you.
Meat is meat, ribs are not meat.
The waiters in supply and marketing cooperatives and department stores are even more popular jobs.
The young girls in Shilibapu all dream of becoming waitresses.
Wearing blue work clothes every day, standing at the counter, behind him are piles of towels, washbasins, soap, toothbrushes, and hot water bottles.
Just thinking about it makes people extremely happy.
Well, people who have not experienced that era of material scarcity cannot imagine this kind of happiness.
The place where Fang Xiaoyue took Zhou Society to went was naturally not a meat stall, let alone a department store that would make people forget to leave.
It's the purchasing department of the supply and marketing cooperative behind the department store.
Fang Xiaoyue, who had experienced a similar era in another dimension, was familiar with it.
The purchasing department of the supply and marketing cooperative is a department that specializes in purchasing various local specialties in rural areas.
In this era, a large part of Chinese herbal medicines, animal skins, etc. that had not yet been artificially grown were purchased from rural areas.
The acquisition department is like a junk yard with a lot of things piled up in the yard.
What herbs, animal skins, etc. look a bit messy.
Several men were sorting things out inside and moving some herbs into the warehouse at the back.
Seeing Fang Xiaoyue and the others come in, a dark man with a cigarette in his mouth came up to him: "Which village are you from? Are you here to sell herbs or animal skins?"
The Zhou community in the village, which had always been playful and overly lively, became nervous and honest at this time, and did not dare to talk to him at all.
Fang Xiaoyue responded with a smile: "We are from Kuixing Village. We made up something ourselves. Can uncle help us take a look?"
To be honest, since there is no inheritance of straw weaving here, the purchasing department of the supply and marketing cooperative rarely sees anyone coming to sell straw weaving.
So the swarthy man became somewhat interested and flicked the cigarette butt that was about to burn out: "Take it out and have a look."
Then Society Zhou became more alert and hurriedly put down his backpack and took out the straw pendants and straw ornaments inside.
Fang Xiaoyue made a total of 21 pieces of straw weaving, including 16 pieces of straw pendants and only 5 pieces of straw ornaments.
No way, the straw pendants are flat and can easily overlap a lot in the back basket, while the straw ornaments are three-dimensional creations. If too many are made, the basket cannot fit at all.
As Zhou society took out the straw weaving, the dark man picked up a piece of agricultural harvest and looked at it, with a bit of surprise in his eyes.
He has seen a lot of straw weaving during these years of working in the supply and marketing cooperative, running around here and there, but straw weaving of this level is rare.
Especially the ornament of a monkey fishing for the moon. The monkey on it can be said to be very vivid. If the mat material on its body could not be seen and the light was slightly darker, one might misunderstand that it is a real monkey.
There is no doubt that this is straw knitting that took a lot of effort to make.
"It took a lot of effort, didn't it? The weaving was good. I took the decision. The straw pendants are 8 cents each, and the straw ornaments are 2.5 cents each."
After looking at the straws one by one, the swarthy man who felt very good immediately gave the price and ate all of Fang Xiaoyue's straws.
No bargaining is allowed on this price. If you want to sell, just sell. If you don't want to sell, just get out. This is the confidence of the supply and marketing cooperatives in this era.
Hiss, after hearing these words, Zhou Shexi, who was standing aside, couldn't help but take a breath of air.
He quickly calculated in his mind, 16 pieces of straw pendants were 12.8 yuan, and the straw woven ornaments were 12.5 yuan, a total of 25.3 yuan!
You must know that in this era, the average worker's salary is only about 30 RMB a month. If he has a long working experience and has a position, the salary may rise to 50 or 60 RMB.
But even so, 25.3 can at least cover more than half a month's salary of workers.
I got half a month's salary in just a short time?
Compared to the shocked Zhou Society, Fang Xiaoyue was much calmer.
He knew that straw of this grade was worth this price, and he also knew that this dark man would take it and hand it over directly to the provincial supply and marketing cooperative, and he might even export it to the country to earn foreign exchange, etc.
After all, he had been exposed to these in another dimension.
At that time, he was a big shot who founded an automobile factory.
Sometimes Fang Xiaoyue feels a little unbelievable when thinking back to her previous experience of coming from a different plane. Did she do so many things by herself?
The swarthy man took out a purchase order, asked Fang Xiaoyue to sign his name on it, and pressed his fingerprints. Then he took out a cloth bag and picked out two big unity sheets, one for a steelworker with five yuan, and one with a green dam for two cents. , a red corner, and then did not hand it directly to Fang Xiaoyue, but counted it again, and only handed it to Fang Xiaoyue after confirming that it was correct.
After receiving the fluttering banknotes, Fang Xiaoyue did not feel as excited as a young man about getting money for the first time. Instead, he smiled and asked the dark man in a low voice about how to exchange the industrial papers.
This is also a helpless thing. In this era, as long as industrial products are available, they cannot be purchased directly with money.
For example, a bicycle requires 50 industrial coupons and one hundred, fifty or sixty yuan!
At this time, this is undoubtedly a huge sum of money.
As for industrial papers, only state cadres, teachers, workers and other staff can be allocated.
To put it simply, 50 industrial coupons are almost what an ordinary employee earns in a year.
If you want to buy iron pots, kitchen knives, hoes, etc. in rural areas, you need to use industrial rolls.
It's just that when the public grain is paid every year, the village committee can get some distribution to purchase some necessary industrial products.
Fang Xiaoyue wanted to buy some tools needed for straw weaving, such as scissors, bamboo strip knives, etc. After all, he had not yet recovered enough to use his metallization ability, so he could not make a set of tools by himself.
The broken mechanical converter could be used to make some tools, but he had no materials.
The most important thing is that he never thought about making some tools himself.
The reason is simple. Everyone is very vigilant these days.
If Fang Xiaoyue conjured some tools out of thin air, or made some tools himself, then she might be in big trouble.
A student kid in the city can actually make tools by forging iron?
This is wrong no matter how you think about it.
Could it be some kind of enemy agent?
Otherwise, how could he be so powerful and make better tools than the county farm tool factory?
