Chapter 12 Yongjun Restaurant

The person spoke quickly and quietly, looking around for fear of being heard by others.

Yang Xiaotao knew that the value of this ticket was the same as before. Even if you have money, you may not be able to buy meat and food, but as long as you have a ticket, you can always buy it.

These days, the country is short of supplies, so we can only use votes to maintain market balance and make the limited supplies work, so that some places are not rich and others are poor.

But in the current social situation, when the emergence of tickets solves some problems, new problems also appear.

Just like the food produced in the countryside will be handed over, but workers in the city can obtain food without growing food.

Well, people in rural areas need to eat when they go to the city to do errands, and they have to use food stamps to eat. Where do the food stamps come from?

Of course I bought it.

But food stamps are not issued in rural areas. Therefore, sometimes people will use some means to find ways to buy some food stamps.

Of course, most of the time, this kind of purchase can be purchased by the current brigade, secretary, etc. in the name of the collective.

Only when you need it personally will you find someone to buy it.

And this situation is not limited to rural areas. In order to enrich their daily necessities, people in cities will also use money to buy some non-staple food stamps or even exchange them for some food stamps.

Moreover, these days, grain stores do not distribute much rations, and many families use up a month's worth of grain in half a month.

We had no choice but to go out and buy some food in exchange, and that's how the pigeon market came about.

Some people buy food stamps, and naturally there are people who sell food stamps.

Of course, this kind of action is done in private and cannot be seen by those ladies with little feet.

As for fishing law enforcement, it’s really not popular these days.

"Do you have a ticket?"

Yang Xiaotao also lowered his voice and asked in a low voice.

"Comrade, this is your first time here. It's not difficult for you. I've been selling in this alley for several years."

As the visitor spoke, he also saw Yang Xiaotao's suspicious look, so he continued.

"I know you have concerns, but people in this industry are doing long-term business. Once the reputation is bad, who will dare to come here?"

"So you can rest assured that as long as you buy sincerely, we can sell it with confidence!"

Yang Xiaotao nodded and didn't think much about it. After all, selling tickets was not uncommon.

The deaf old lady in the TV series will exchange food stamps for money, and the third uncle Yan Fugui and his family will also exchange fine grains for coarse grains in order to have enough food, so that they can have more food and barely make ends meet.

"how much do you have?"

"follow me!"

The man looked around, then walked towards the entrance of the alley, with Yang Xiaotao following closely behind him.

When I came to a door, I opened the door and walked in. Someone immediately closed the door behind me.

"Comrade, don't worry, take precautions just in case!"

The man took off his hat and revealed a smiling face. He was young, probably in his twenties.

"My name is Shen Lin!"

"Hello!"

After saying hello, Shen Lin took out a stack of bills from his pocket, and the people behind him also took out some and placed them on the subway car nearby.

"We have agreed first that the price of this ticket will be higher than normal. I don't know if you will accept it or not."

"I'm OK!"

Yang Xiaotao replied simply. The two looked at each other and knew that the other person was really rich.

"These are food stamps, these are meat stamps, these are sugar stamps, these are oil stamps..."

Soon, the tickets on the floor bus were divided into several waves, and Shen Lin said the prices one by one.

"I want twenty kilograms of white flour from food stamps, meat stamps, sugar stamps and oil stamps!"

Yang Xiaotao made a rough estimate and found that the total amount of these tickets was only thirty yuan, which was not much for him.

Shen Lin immediately laughed when he heard this, "Brother, be so heroic!"

After saying that, another person started sorting out the tickets, picked out what Yang Xiaotao needed, and handed them to Shen Lin.

"A total of twenty kilograms of white flour, seven kilograms of meat, one and a half kilograms of sugar. One kilogram of oil costs twenty-nine and a half yuan!"

Yang Xiaotao took it into his arms without looking, then reached into his clothes, actually took out 30 yuan from the space, and handed it to Shen Lin.

"Brother, wait a minute, I'll give you some money."

When Shen Lin saw that Yang Xiaotao was straightforward, he was naturally extremely polite.

"No need, we will come here often in the future, I will leave the money to you first, and we will calculate it next time."

"Okay, brother, that's interesting. I, Shen Lin, recognize you!"

"I'll come again next time and I'll still be here. If you need anything, brother, you can tell me in advance."

Yang Xiaotao nodded, "You can prepare more meat tickets, as well as wine tickets and cigarette tickets. It's the best you can get!"

When Shen Lin heard this, his eyes almost narrowed. This was a big customer, and not many people in their compound dared to be so heroic.

"Okay! I'll keep an eye on you!"

Shen Lin patted his chest in assurance, and Yang Xiaotao didn't wait long, turned around and left.

Looking at Yang Xiaotao's leaving figure, another person came forward and said.

"Brother Lin, this guy is so bold!"

"If you are so rich, does it come from another compound?"

Lin Shen shook his head and thought no more.

People in their profession are most taboo about asking questions. Don't ask, don't tell. That's the rule.

"Here are ten dollars, here you go!"

"By the way, Xiao Li. Doesn't your old man often buy drinking tickets? Let's see if we can get two out. This time he is a big customer."

"Brother Lin, it's not like you don't know that my old man is addicted to alcohol, and drinking tickets are his lifeblood!"

"You're stupid, you can just tell me where the drinking tickets are hidden."

"Really? You're right, my mother is very strict, so that's what I'll do."

Yang Xiaotao didn't know how the two people behind him planned to deceive his old man. He had the ticket and naturally wanted to reward the five internal organs.

“Yongjun Restaurant!”

Looking up at the name, it is very characteristic of this era.

It was less than noon and it was not yet dinner time. Yang Xiaotao approached the restaurant and there was no one around.

"Comrade, want to eat?"

A stout woman came out, wearing an apron and smiling broadly.

"Sister, I'm hungry, come here and have something to eat!"

"Okay, what do you want to eat?"

"I don't know what delicious food we have. Do you have any signature dishes in the store?"

"There are so many signature dishes. Even though our restaurant is not big, my family has been a cook since they were young. I can't compare to this state banquet, but it will definitely satisfy you."

"When you say that, I'm even hungrier."

"Haha, I'm a poor boy. My eldest son is about the same age as you. He probably ate three steamed buns in one meal!"

The eldest sister is good at chatting and quickly revealed the restaurant's quota.

"There are only two hard dishes in our store a day, one is braised pork and the other is twice-cooked pork. We can only sell five portions a day."

“In addition, the Kung Pao Chicken is also delicious.”

The eldest sister said, and finally whispered.

“The chicken is homemade.”

Yang Xiaotao understood instantly.

"Sister, please pack one portion each of braised pork and twice-cooked pork, as well as one portion of kung pao chicken and roasted chicken, and another twenty steamed buns, two-faced ones will do."

Yang Xiaotao spit out a series of numbers, which shocked the eldest sister.

"Comrade, are you sure you want these?"

It's not that she's making a fuss. She's very good at speculating on food these days. If she's caught, she won't take it lightly.

"Sister, don't think too much."

"I happen to be going to visit an elder, so I plan to get some food from you so I don't have to open the fire again."
