Chapter 107 Moutai(1/2)

 So Fangyuan was going to buy some food for them to take home. He had food stamps in his hand. As long as he had food stamps, it wouldn't cost much to buy food.

"You two, come here." Before entering, Fangyuan called to Li Weiguo and the little fat man.

"Boss, what's wrong?"

Fangyuan did not answer the little fat man, but looked at him and asked: "Can you carry thirty pounds on your back?"

"Thirty pounds! I don't know."

At this time, Li Weiguo glanced at the little fat man and said, "It should be no problem! My third brother can carry it on his back."

Li Weiguo's third brother seems to be smaller than Fatty. If he can carry it on his back, then Little Fatty should be fine.

Anyway, there is no problem with Fangyuan. As the saying goes, children from poor families have become masters early, but today's children are not as delicate as those in later generations.

"Those, take these, and you can go in and buy them yourself later."

Fangyuan handed the little fat man thirty kilograms of coarse and fine food stamps, plus two yuan and fifty cents. Cornmeal was eight cents a kilogram, and thirty kilograms was two yuan and four cents.

"Ah! Boss, what are you..." The little fat man looked at the food stamps and money in his hand, feeling a little at a loss.

"It's yours to carry it home. If you can't carry it back, there's nothing I can do." Fangyuan spread his hands.

"If you can carry it, you can definitely carry it back." After hearing what Fangyuan said, the little fat man said immediately.

"That's good."

Then Fangyuan took out thirty kilograms of coarse and fine grain stamps and two yuan and fifty cents and handed them to Li Weiguo and said, "This is yours. We will go in and buy it separately later."

"Hmm!"

Li Weiguo was not polite because he knew Fangyuan's temper, so there was no need to be polite at all.

"Okay, you go and buy it first, then Fatty."

"Okay." Li Weiguo nodded, and then entered the supply and marketing cooperative.

It only takes a few minutes! Li Weiguo came out of the supply and marketing cooperative, carrying a cloth bag.

"Go!" Fangyuan patted the little fat man and said.

"Boss, I'm going."

Fangyuan didn't speak, just nodded. Seeing this, the little fat man went in.

The little fat man came out faster than Li Weiguo. He also came out carrying a cloth bag. Just now, Fangyuan was worried that he couldn't carry thirty kilograms, but now it seems that it is completely unnecessary to worry.

After the little fat man came out, Fangyuan also went in, handed over thirty kilograms of coarse and fine grain stamps and said, "I want thirty kilograms of cornmeal."

Although the salesperson was surprised, she didn't ask because it wasn't like she didn't give food stamps.

"Two dollars and forty cents."

"Here you go." Fangyuan quickly handed over the money.

"Wait a minute, I'll weigh you right now."

While the waiter was weighing cornmeal, Fangyuan took a look at the items sold by this supply and marketing cooperative.

This supply and marketing cooperative is not the kind of small neighborhood supply and marketing cooperative, but the kind that belongs to the street.

The items inside are very comprehensive, basically everything is available, not only Chinese cigarettes, but also various kinds of wine.

"Auntie, how do you sell Moutai?" Fangyuan asked another salesperson.

The salesperson glanced at Fangyuan and said, "This requires a ticket."

"I know, I just wanted to ask."

"If you have a ticket, it's two yuan and ninety-seven cents a bottle."

Hearing what the waiter said, Fangyuan was stunned for a moment. It wasn't that it felt expensive, but that it was too cheap.

In his previous life, he heard from the old man that a bottle of Maotai liquor in this era cost sixteen yuan, but now it only costs two yuan and ninety-seven cents!

This can only be said that Fangyuan still knows a little about this era and does not have a comprehensive understanding.

It’s true that Maotai liquor costs 16 yuan a bottle, but not now, but starting from 1962.

Starting in 1962, in order to withdraw funds, the state used some commodities to implement negotiated prices.

These include famous cigarettes and famous wines. The price increase range for famous wines (including national famous wines and local famous wines) is higher, which is roughly 4 to 5.7 times higher than the average price.

For example, Kweichow Moutai, the original price was two yuan and ninety-seven yuan per catty, but it was raised to sixteen yuan, an increase of 4.4 times.

The original price of Liaoning Qianshan liquor is 1.2 yuan per catty, which is increased to 8 yuan, an increase of 5.7 times.

Liquor is the second best, with an increase of roughly 1.6 to 3.3 times. For example, Shandong Gold Medal brandy, the original price is 3.53 yuan per bottle, is increased to 15 yuan, an increase of 3.2 times.

The original price of Jilin Tonghua wine is 1.14 yuan per bottle, which is increased to 3 yuan, an increase of 1.6 times.

Beer, for example, has increased by roughly 0.8 times. For example, Tsingtao mature beer, the original price of 0.38 yuan per bottle, has increased to 0.69 yuan.

High-priced cigarettes are about four times more expensive than low-priced cigarettes.

Of course, high-price supply has not yet been implemented, and even if high-price supply is implemented, buying it with tickets will still be two yuan and ninety-seven cents.

The high price is only for people who don't have tickets. To put it bluntly, it means selling more money to raise funds.

However, not only famous cigarettes and wines will be available at high prices, but also many other products, let’s not mention this for now.

"Auntie, can you get me a bottle and let me take a look?" Fangyuan said to the salesperson.

Hearing what Fangyuan said, the salesperson was very embarrassed.

Of course Fangyuan knew why the salesperson was in trouble. He quickly put a Moutai ticket on the counter and said, "Auntie, let me buy a bottle."

The salesperson looked at Fangyuan in surprise. She probably didn't expect that Fangyuan actually had Moutai liquor tickets.

"I'll get it for you right now." The waiter said and quickly went over to get a bottle of Moutai.

Fangyuan took it and took a look at it, took out three dollars and handed it over and said, "Here you go."

These three dollars are not two dollars per piece and one dollar per piece, but three yuan per piece.

The second set of RMB is used now. The second set of RMB has a face value of three yuan, and it is also the last batch of three yuan face value.

The total face value of the second set of RMB was 21.88 cents, and in the third set of RMB, it became 18.88 cents.

Of course, this does not include the coins, because there are still eight cents in the coin, and adding the coins is a true set.

In fact, when she saw the three yuan coins for the first time, Fangyuan still wanted to collect some, but after thinking about it, she decided against it.

It’s not that this thing has no collection value in future generations, the main thing is that it becomes worthless if there are too many of it.

Fangyuan has already thought about it. When he has enough money, he will go to the bank and exchange it for one hundred sets.

Two thousand one hundred and ninety-six yuan is one hundred sets, and this refers to the complete set with coins.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

When the third set comes out, I will replace it with a hundred complete sets. If there are more, I will not replace them.

It is a pity that he came to this era too late. So far, Fangyuan has not seen what the first set of RMB looks like.

But it doesn’t matter, he can’t let everything good happen to him. Besides, he’s living his life again, so there’s no need to take money so seriously.

Also, will he be short of money? Of course not, as long as he is willing, he can make no amount of money!

Even if I collect these coins, I just want to keep them as a memory, or to leave a way out for myself.

If you really have nothing in the future, this is also the capital for your comeback.

"Look for your money." The waiter handed Fangyuan three cents.

"Thank you!" Fangyuan took the money and held the wine in his arms.

It happened that another salesperson also weighed the cornmeal.

The salesperson handed a cloth bag to Fangyuan, and Fangyuan thanked her again, and then went out carrying the cloth bag.

Li Weiguo and the little fat man were waiting for him not far away. When he saw him coming out, Li Weiguo hurriedly came up to him and said, "Give it to me! I'll carry it."

"Yeah!" Fangyuan handed the bag to Li Weiguo.

The little fat man glanced at Li Weiguo resentfully and said, "Oh! We are the same person but have different fates! You didn't even say you would carry it for me."

Hearing what the little fat man said, Fang Yuan patted him on the head and said, "Let me carry it for you."

"Uh!" The little fat man was stunned for a moment, then shook his head quickly and said, "No, no, I can do it myself."

In fact, the little fat man means that because there is a bus stop next to it, he doesn't need to carry it very far.

Fangyuan put the wine into her schoolbag and said, "It's getting late, let's go take a ride!"

"Hmm!"

The three people came to the bus stop. Although there was no snow at the bus stop, there was a lot of black mud, which had been stepped on by people coming and going.

So you can't put the bag on the ground. Li Weiguo doesn't care. He carries sixty pounds as if it's nothing. But the little fat guy is a little bit in trouble.

In fact, it’s not that he can’t carry it, it’s that this kid feels unbalanced.

The bus came quickly. There were very few people leaving the city at this time, so there were only a few people on the bus.
