Song Yin in the last days

After the things from the county were shipped back, Xu Lingfeng asked Lu Wanjun to enter them into separate accounts and store them separately.These things are not only "private goods" that Diao Shenghua scavenged from wealthy households, but also the people's anointing of Yunzhi County. It is too troublesome for the poor to find them. They don't have the time, so let's try to use them on Yunzhi people.But this time, I can't see those who have a share, and those who have a share are narrow enough to buy people's hearts for the first time, and it is to give them "the gods of Xianyin Town" to compete for fame and momentum, one time is enough.For the rest of these things, he asked Deng Anxiang to investigate first, and give them to those families with good character, at least to make Yunzhi people understand one truth: gods, not everyone will help, your character is too bad, even gods , and won't help you either.

Now the settlement... oh, it should be called Xianyin Town now, and the situation between Xianyin Town and Diao Shenghua is quite funny now.The magistrate Diao had nothing to do with them, but they, how could they do anything with Diao Shenghua? It was easy to kill Diao Shenghua, but what about after killing him?What about Yunzhi County?It's not that Diao Shenghua manages Yunzhi well, but with him, Yunzhi is at least in order. Once Diao Shenghua falls, they don't have the manpower and financial resources to meddle in their affairs, and Yunzhi will definitely be in chaos.

So, let's just leave it at that for the time being, and hope that the lessons learned this time will be enough for Diao Shenghua to recognize the situation and keep to himself.

While the management was busy dealing with Diao Shenghua, ordinary residents were busy preparing for the winter.

The number of sweet potatoes harvested this year is not small, and they cannot all be piled up in the cellar, so each family began to urge the management committee to collect the accounts as soon as possible-the rent for the first year, the food expenses from Jiang'an, and the individual expenses of each family. Before starting the business, I picked up the rice borrowed from the family led by the management committee. These accounts were all paid back with sweet potatoes, and many families with labor and farming skills settled their accounts.

The management committee suddenly produced tens of thousands of catties of sweet potatoes, and they were not in a hurry, so they hired people to make sweet potatoes into vermicelli.At this time, urban talents like Lu Wanjun realized that sweet potatoes can also be made into vermicelli, and the food is delicious and durable.As a result, a trend of making vermicelli quickly set off in the settlement.

In view of the fact that one hundred catties of sweet potatoes can only make about twenty catties of vermicelli, the loss is too great, and most of those who don’t have much supplies at home dare not make too much.In addition to vermicelli, many families also made some dried potatoes as snacks for children, and stored the bulk in the cellar as a staple food. No matter how poor the family was, at least they didn’t have to worry about food for the winter.

In addition to vermicelli, everyone is still busy making dried persimmons, hawthorn sauce, dried chestnuts and wine, etc. The management committee organized two autumn pickings, both of which only young and middle-aged people participated in. So local methods and foreign methods were used together, and various skills were flying all over the sky. After a week, almost everyone learned a lot.

Time soon entered late October, and on October 10, Xianyin Town ushered in the first snow. It was also on this day that the Management Committee "issued" the first set of coins.This set of coins can only be used within Xianyin Town, with a face value of up to five yuan, divided into seven denominations of one cent, two cents, five cents, one dime, five cents, one yuan, and five yuan, all of which are coins.

This set of coins was actually forced out.

During the planning period, no one considered the issue of "money" at all, because the currency depreciated too fast, and Jiang'an had already started bartering, and Xu Lingfeng and the others also used grain as a reference to set the price of the materials in hand.But in actual operation, they found that it was too inconvenient to do so. It was okay once or twice. If every transaction had to be converted into grain, it would not only be troublesome, but also waste a lot of manpower, especially after the sweet potato "harvest". When you go to a restaurant for a meal, you have to carry a bunch of sweet potatoes, and the restaurant has to arrange special staff to weigh and store them. Everyone is very painful.

Therefore, the Management Committee found that it was time to "issue currency".Of course, it is impossible for such a small number of people to really start working to "make money". Among the residents, there are two people who are engaged in finance. They proposed a plan: directly do special treatment on the existing currency.Thus, there was this set of coins called "the first edition of Song coins" by later generations, because the front of each coin was pressed out with a "Song" character, and Song Yin injected energy into the "Song" character, It looks radiant under sunlight or lights, and there is absolutely no possibility of piracy at present.

This is also the main reason why coins are used. They even chose commemorative coins for five yuan. For this reason, they took a trip to Yunzhi County with sweet potatoes. The prices are sky-high, and there are too many people who have coins in their hands but can't use them, and they quickly collect enough coins.

As for the physical object used to support this set of currencies, it is not gold, but rice—if only rice is used, the management committee still holds hundreds of tons, of which 50 tons are destined to reserve grain, and these 50 tons of rice are to maintain The key to the normal operation of the currency system of the entire Xianyin Town.Therefore, all goods on the Internet are priced around the price of rice. The management committee sets rice at [-] cents a catty, so flour is [-] cents a catty, sweet potatoes are [-] cents a catty, and steamed buns are [-] cents a catty.

Hearing that Xianyin Town had its own "money", many people braved the wind and snow to rush to the big house (in fact, it was only a mile away), exchanged ten catties of sweet potatoes for four yuan, and then spent two cents in "Hu Drink a cup of hot tea in the chef’s restaurant... When they came, most of the people were just looking for fun, and some people came with the intention of supporting the immortal master and the management committee, but what they didn’t expect was that, Just next to Hu's restaurant, a small supermarket named "Fushou Rushan" also opened today.

The supermarket is very small, with an area of ​​less than 50 square meters, and the entire space is filled with goods. From clothing and bedding to baby carriages and toys, it is impossible to cover everything, but there must be "hundred things".Moreover, there are actually food for sale in the supermarket, such as various canned meats, etc., which made many visitors secretly swallow a lot of saliva.

You can tell from the name that this is the small shop of Xu Dashan, a man of great kindness. Everyone knows that he brought in supplies that he could never use up for several lifetimes. Food has a shelf life, and it will go bad soon. Isn't that wasted for nothing... Now I know that the lover has a plan: sell it if you can't use it up!

However, although there are many things in his store, the prices are not cheap. A half catty of canned fruit costs 8 cents, and a two-wheeled stroller for children's play costs 16 yuan, which is enough to buy six catties of rice and white noodles... So the first store opened One day, only one big deal was concluded: Li Dafu's family bought a human-powered tricycle for eight yuan.The onlookers spontaneously converted [-] yuan into [-] catties of rice, feeling a burst of heartache.

The price was beyond their affordability. Most people just came to watch the excitement for a while, and then went back to Hu's restaurant to drink tea. A bowl cost two cents, which they could still afford occasionally.

There were too many people coming, and the Hu’s restaurant couldn’t sit down. The corridor outside was two and a half meters wide, so they simply put tables and chairs in the corridor, occupying the road for business, and placed half a circle. They joked that the current management committee probably didn’t have the financial resources. Go raise a city management team.

Outside, the cold wind was raging and snowflakes were all over the sky, but inside the big house was warm and harmonious, and the conversation was full of excitement, a scene of enthusiasm.

……

On October 10, the residents of Xianyin Town welcomed the first snow, the first set of coins, and the first supermarket... It was also on this night that Liu Huilan passed away quietly.

Liu Huilan's three mothers live here in the big house.There are small single rooms with a kitchen and bathroom specially prepared for single people in the big house. Each room is only 25 square meters and can be rented or bought in ten-year installments. Liu Huilan lives in one of them with her two children.In view of her physical condition, the management committee waived her rent. Originally, in addition to the rations of 30 catties per month for the two children, the management committee planned to provide her with some food subsidies, but she refused , her reason was surprising, she said she didn't want her children to think that if there was a problem, someone else would come to help.

Liu Huilan chose to clean the livestock house every day in exchange for a free lunch in the cafeteria and 20 catties of grain per month. Because the number of livestock is limited, this job is not heavy, and it only takes two hours a day to finish it.She cleans several barns every day, looks happy, and goes to pick autumn with everyone. Even Ke Yuan thinks that she can last another year or a half. Yes, I didn't expect to leave like this.Liu Huilan left very quietly and very suddenly. The next morning her son couldn't wake her up, and everyone realized that she was gone and she didn't leave any last words.

The management committee selected a sloping land that was not suitable for cultivation at the foot of the mountain as the cemetery of their new town, and Liu Huilan was the first to be buried there.On the day of the burial, almost everyone went to see the poor woman off. Her eight-year-old eldest son led his two-year-old sister and walked in front of the crowd in silence. He hugged his sister tightly and made a loud noise until the first shovel fell. ...
