Prices in Chengdu in 1937: 1 ocean can buy 16 catties of rice, or 17 catties of flour, or 5 catties of pork, or 40 eggs, or 45 catties of green onions, or 47 catties of cabbage, or 5 catties of sugar.

Data [-], in "Living History of the Silver Dollar Era":

A meal of two chickens (eggs) and one pancake in Shanghai requires four copper coins.The restaurant called a plate of fried pork ribs with scallions, some vegetarian dishes, and two bowls of rice.A good meal for two will cost an anise.

For two people to eat, one silver dollar in Peking can eat a meal of hot-boiled mutton.

In Shanghai, you can eat two western meals, take a bus once, and get five copper coins.

Data [-], according to the "Ledger Book of the Middle Class of the Republic of China":

Dong Shiyuan recorded daily expenses in the 25 years of the Republic of China, buying books cost 1 yuan, buying cigarette cases, handkerchiefs, toothpaste, and toothbrushes totaled 1 yuan, and buying gray cloth shoes also cost [-] yuan.

It costs 2 jiao to take a bath, 3 yuan to buy tea crystal glasses, and 2 jiao to buy laundry soap.It costs 3 cents for laundry, 2 cents for fresh meat and eggs, 5 cents for fortune telling, 2 cents for hair repair, and 50 yuan for 2 catties of watermelon.In addition, lard oil is 3 horns and soybean oil is 5 horns.

A newspaper retails for 3 copper coins, and one silver coin can only buy a month's worth of newspapers.

A copy of "The Scream" costs 7 cents, and one silver dollar can buy a thicker book, or two thinner books.

If you are chasing girls, it is cheaper to go to the park, five coppers per ticket, one silver dollar can buy 20 tickets.

1 silver dollar 100 copper dollars

But if you go to see a movie, especially a trendy one that has just been released, it can be expensive.At that time, it cost one yuan and two cents to buy two movie tickets for the comedy "Gold Rush" filmed in the 14th year of the Republic of China.

[-]. The price of luxury goods

Compared with the necessities of life, some leather shoes, pens, suits and bicycles are much more expensive.

Before the Anti-Japanese War, a bicycle sold in Chengdu cost about 150 yuan.

Camel Xiangzi bought a rickshaw first-class new car for 100 yuan.

A pair of Shanghai leather shoes with 2.5 silver rounds.

In 1934, the Central Army imported high-end boots from the United States through Jardine Matheson for 18 silver dollars.

Mrs. Liu Jiwen, the mayor of NJ, bought a pair of stockings for 25 yuan.

From this point of view, a certain time-travel article makes money by selling stockings, but it is not groundless.But earning hundreds of millions is ridiculous. How many noble ladies in the Republic of China could afford silk stockings worth 25 yuan?

Stationery, cigarettes and alcohol are also very expensive. At the stationery counter of Yongan Company, I bought a Kang Keling fountain pen, which was worth 4 yuan.

"Cigarette King" British-made "Garlick" cigarettes are packed in tin cans with 50 sticks, and you need one yuan to buy them.

The famous three-star brandy, six yuan a bottle.

At that time, this was just a standard configuration for a "Xiaokai" who was riding a bicycle, wearing a suit, leather shoes, and noodles.

If you need a car to get in and out like in the TV series, it will be expensive.The cheapest car back then was the "Pepe Austin," a small Austin saloon.

This kind of small car is similar to the earliest Xiali. According to the "Life History of the Silver Dollar Era", the price of this kind of car is 1100 yuan, and the gasoline cost is 20 cents per gallon, but it needs a driver. The monthly salary is [-] yuan.

If it weren't for the rich, they couldn't afford it back then.For the Dodge sedan in the same period, the discount is 1595 silver dollars.This is still the cheapest. Ordinary cars in those days were generally 2700-3000 oceans.

[-]. The income of the staff at that time

Senior staff income: At that time, they could get about 40 yuan a month.

In the account books of the middle class in the Republic of China, Dong Shiyuan, as a manager of a foreign company, his income includes several parts, including a monthly salary of 25 yuan, and festive banquet expenses of 3~4 yuan every Spring Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, and Mid-Autumn Festival. The year-end bonus is 62.5 yuan.In other words, Dong Shiyuan's average monthly salary is about 46 yuan.

Ordinary employees: The monthly income is only 14-20 yuan, which is about the same income level as factory workers at that time.It is very difficult for an ordinary employee to earn more than ten or twenty yuan a month.

We must know that the rent was very high at that time. After the January 1932th Incident in 18, it cost about 20-[-] yuan per month to rent the cheapest pavilion in Shanghai.Back then, if most ordinary employees lived in company dormitories, they could only rent together. The monthly rental cost for two people sharing a house accounted for about half of their income.

And the low-level employees are even more miserable.

When the teachers worked in the library of Peking University, their monthly salary was 8 yuan.Although the dormitory does not need to spend rent, plus the teacher's support, it is only enough for expenses every month, leaving only a few coppers.

At that time, the apprentices were provided with food and housing, but they were only given two yuan a month, which was barely enough to shave their heads, take a shower and buy daily necessities.

[-]. The income of soldiers in the period of the Republic of China

The income of the soldiers in the Republic of China was mixed. There were the capital garrison with double salary, the Tax Police Headquarters with full salary, the German division with [-]% national salary, and the warlord with half salary. Poor troops who can't afford to wear them.

Admiral: 800 (normal salary) 240 (national crisis salary)

Lieutenant general: 500 (normal salary) 200 (national crisis salary)

Major General: 320 (normal salary) 160 (national crisis salary)

Colonel: 240 (normal salary) 120 (national crisis salary)

Lieutenant colonel: 170 (normal salary) 100 (national crisis salary)

Major: 135 (normal salary) 80 (national crisis salary)

Captain: 80 (normal salary) 50 (national crisis salary)

Lieutenant: 60 (normal salary) 40 (national crisis salary)

Second lieutenant: 42 (normal salary) 30 (national crisis salary)

Warrant officer: 32 (normal salary) 24 (national crisis salary)

Staff sergeant: 20 (normal pay) 15 (national crisis pay)

Sergeant: 16 (normal pay) 12 (national crisis pay)

Corporal: 14 (normal pay) 11 (national crisis pay)

Upper class soldier: 12 (normal salary) 8.5 (national crisis salary)

Private first class: 10.5 (normal salary) 7.5 (national crisis salary)

Second-class soldier: 10 (normal salary) 7 (national crisis salary)

According to the relatively high-income old Jiang Deshi, an ordinary soldier is 7 yuan a month, and a second lieutenant is only 30 yuan. In fact, his nominal monthly income after graduation is 42 yuan, but 30% of the national disasters occurred after September 30. The salary is only [-] yuan.And the [-] yuan is not all sent to the hand.

First of all, about four or five yuan will be deducted for food expenses.

Then you have to deduct more than ten yuan for clothing.

The last thing is to deduct five yuan a month for weapons.

After deducting miscellaneous things, a second lieutenant who has just started working has a nominal salary of 30 yuan, but in fact he can only get 5 yuan that month.Of course, this is the first month, and usually only food expenses and weapon money need to be deducted, which means that it is estimated that I can get home 15 yuan a month.

The lieutenant is only 40 yuan, and the captain is 50 yuan. They greet and send more entertainment, and the rest of the month is 30 yuan, which is equivalent to ordinary civilian employees.

Time Vulnerabilities and Analysis

第一次世界大战(1914年7月28日-1918年11月11日),战争过程主要是同盟国和协约国之间的战斗。

The German Empire, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the Ottoman Empire, and the Kingdom of Bulgaria belong to the Allied Powers camp;

The British Empire, the French Third Republic, the Russian Empire, the Kingdom of Italy, the United States of America, the Kingdom of Serbia, the Kingdom of Belgium, the Kingdom of Romania, and the Kingdom of Greece belonged to the camp of the Allies.

The First World War brought a lot of disasters to mankind, but objectively promoted the development of science and technology.

In the First World War, various new weapons such as airplanes, poison gas, tanks, and long-range cannons were successively put into war, which was an important stage in the history of weapon development.

Note: In 1882, Germany, Austria, and Italy signed the "Treaty of Alliance", and the Triple Alliance was formally established, and Italy was originally a member of the Allied Powers.

In April 1915, Italy, which originally belonged to the Allied Powers camp, suddenly defected, signed the "London Treaty" with the Allied Powers, declared war on the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and joined the Allied Powers.

The time anchor of this book:

In Chapter 56, it is mentioned that Italy betrayed and joined the Allied Powers, so it was 1915.

Really character record:

Huang Feihong (July 1856, 7-April 9, 1925), formerly known as Huang Xixiang, with the word Dayun, was named Feihong, and his childhood name was Feixiong.Born in Nanhai County, Guangdong Province, he was originally from Xiluzhou Village, Xiqiaoling, Nanhai County.In the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, he was a martial artist, a famous surgeon of traditional Chinese medicine, and a famous lion dancer.

In August 1911 (the third year of Xuantong), at the invitation of Liu Yongfu (Black Banner Army), the head of the Guangdong Militia, he was appointed as the head coach of the Guangdong Militia.

1925年(民国14年)4月17日,黄飞鸿病逝于广州城西方便医院,终年69岁。

Huo Yuanjia (January 1868, 1-September 18, 1910), a famous patriotic martial artist in the late Qing Dynasty, was born in Jinghai County, Tianjin.Huo Yuanjia was born in a bodyguard family, and inherited the "Secret Fist" stunt passed down from his family.Before the age of 9, he basically lived in his hometown. After the age of 14, he went to Tianjin to work as a stevedore. In 27, 28-year-old Huo Yuanjia was introduced by Nong Jinsun to Shanghai to accept martial arts from the "Jingwu Gymnastics Association" founded by Chen Gongzhe and Chen Tiesheng.

Ye Wen (October 1893, 10-December 1, 1972), was born in Nanhai Sangyuan, Foshan, Guangdong. His original name was Ye Jiwen, and his former name was Ye Yi. His ancestral home was in Sangyuan, Nanhai County, Guangdong Province, and he learned from Chen Huashun and Liang Bi.

In 1900 (the 26th year of Guangxu), he became a teacher under Chen Huashun

In 1906 (the 32nd year of Guangxu), before his death, his master Chen Huashun asked his disciple Wu Zhongsu to take good care of Ip Man and help him complete his Wing Chun studies.Therefore, Ye Wen then transferred to Wu Zhongsu boxing gym in Xianxiang Street, Pujunxu, Foshan to continue his training.

From 1908 (the 34th year of Guangxu) to 1912, Ip Man went to Hong Kong to study and studied at St. Stephen's College, a famous school in Stanley.Introduced by his classmates, he met Liang Bi, the second son of Liang Zan, and studied Wing Chun with him for nearly four years.

1924年(民国13年)至1949年(民国38年)25年的时间叶问都在佛山从事军警教拳和私人教拳工作,经常与武术界各门交流切磋。

In November 1948 (the 37th year of the Republic of China), Ye Wen went to Macau alone to make a living for his family.

In 1949 (the 38th year of the Republic of China), Ip Man came to Hong Kong.

Time loopholes in this book:

Chapter 47, the protagonist was introduced by Ye Wen to visit Mr. Chen Huashun. This should be to visit his disciple Wu Zhongsu. Later, when there is time, the loopholes here will be corrected. Readers who find it, please don’t spray it first, thank you

This question was first raised by reader Ruyu Moshang.

Question: Huo Yuanjia in Jinmen, Huang Feihong in Foshan, Hong Kong (1915) Ip Man.

Analysis: In 1915, the martial artist Huo Yuanjia passed away. The martial artist Mr. Huang Feihong should be in Guangzhou. The martial artist Mr. Ip Man did not record whether he was in Hong Kong or in Foshan. This book tentatively assumes that he is in Foshan.

The investigation and analysis revealed another time loophole, which was extremely embarrassing.
