To use bills, everyone must use them, including the informal workers nowadays. However, this is also simple. Except for coal workers, the rest of the cement factory owners calculate the wages of 50 cents a day, and there are additional rewards. There is no punishment yet.

The main reason is that everyone cherishes the current job, and even if they are just temporary workers, they don’t want to lose their jobs in advance.

In this way, the meal tickets can be issued. In the afternoon of the same day, he and Jinchi and Li Yulan counted it. The workers of the coal factory were directly distributed until the end of next month. The workers and helpers of the cement factory were given for three days first. In this way, the factory could control the food expenses and the canteen could also control the portions, which facilitates procurement arrangements.

At this time, Fang Dajun also figured out one thing, that is, about "food coupons". It turned out that not everyone's household registration book could be exchanged for food coupons. At first, he took it for granted.

The cement factory will face the problem of no grain available. Originally, this matter was very simple, which was equivalent to a common sense problem. Wang Hongwen thought he understood, and he also thought he had figured it out, but now when he was buying a lot of rice, he realized that he was cheating!

He previously thought that although it was the planned economy period and the purchase of grain was restricted, the people could not afford it. The local villagers in Jiaoshan had no food coupons at all, and they did not use food coupons for consumption in the town, and they could even eat without food coupons in the city.

The result is not that simple, because rural household registration cannot be exchanged for food coupons, which is simply a big pit!

But you can buy rice with money. In fact, the rice purchased here was exchanged by the shop owner through other channels. He knew about this before, and he thought that any user's book could be exchanged.

During this period, he asked five communes to purchase the rice consumed by the cement factory, including pork and vegetables. Of course, there are non-agricultural household registrations in the commune. For example, cadres, veterinarians, and people's teachers, who do not have household registrations in the countryside, so they can be used to exchange food coupons.

In addition, there are other ways to obtain some grain in the grain station, but the amount is limited after all, and each adult is limited to 40 kilograms per month, and half-aged children are twenty kilograms. Not all rice is used, but there are coarse grains in it, that is, the purchase of corn is limited.

Food coupons are divided into several levels, one is the county, township, the second is the city coupon, and the third is the national food coupon. The national food coupon can be regarded as a "luxury product".

After crossing the region, you have to use national food coupons! For example, if you go to another province, you can only buy vegetables if you have money, but you can’t buy staple food, that is, rice, steamed buns, etc.

Of course, the peak period for grain coupon control has passed. After the Third Plenary Session of the 1978th ​​1998, the grain coupons began to loosen and the amount of grain supplied began to increase. However, the situation in different places is different. Currently, college students in Yanjing limit the monthly supply of grain for 40 kilograms. The adults of Beidou can have 40 kilograms because Beidou has too few "non-agricultural household registrations". In addition, there are also "student tickets" that can be exchanged. This is not limited to household registration. The grain supply for junior high school students is 20 kilograms per month. The market kilogram means one kilogram, which will be in units of kilograms, which means 500 grams per kilogram.

Two-thirds of these 20 kilograms of grain coupons are coarse grains (i.e. corn flour), and the remaining one-third are fine grains (i.e. rice, white flour). This caused some children outside the city to scream in hunger earlier, and they could not buy grains even if they had money but had no tickets.

Of course, it is the end of 1982, and it is almost 1983. The situation is much better. The food coupons will gradually kneel down in the 1980s and start to depreciate. They are completely abolished in the early 1990s. When he was in elementary school in his previous life, the food coupons were abolished, and he did not understand the problem of the food coupons at all. In this life, the former owner was too young and could not use food coupons in the countryside, which made him finally figure out the tricks here.

From the five communes, more than 50 non-agricultural household registrations were found, and the junior high school student tickets were exchanged for a total of about 6,000 kilograms of grain, of which only 2,000 kilograms of rice were exchanged. In addition, the Beidou Grain Station had about 2,000 kilograms of rice without counting. This was because the purchase had just been paid and the batch of grain had not been sold. In other words, the cement factory could only produce 4,000 kilograms of rice and about 6,000 kilograms of corn through the five communes. A total of 10,000 kilograms of grain, but before, when about 300 workers started working, they ate openly, and each person could kill one kilogram. After more than 20 days, several thousand kilograms of grain were left.

The current surplus grain is about 4,000 kilograms, including corn, rice and wheat. Fortunately, there are few workers now and they consume about 100 kilograms of grain a day. In this way, this batch of grain can last for about 40 days.

Wang Hongwen did not remind him of this problem at that time because in addition to the government, government agencies, schools, etc., they can supply grain, and also include factories and enterprises. Cement plants are legally operated and have complete procedures, so formal workers in cement plants can be qualified to exchange for grain coupons.

But first, the cement factory has to be completed, and then the county will evaluate the number of formal workers. Then there will be a collective household registration in the factory, so that the workers' household registration can be attached to the factory. In this way, the cement factory can use the quota of workers to exchange for grain supply. The summary is still the same two words: cheating!

However, in this way, there is no problem with the grain in the cement plant. One person can’t finish it for 40 kilograms, which can meet the needs of coal factory workers.

With the loosening of the collective system and the implementation of the joint contract responsibility system in rural areas, when there is too much food, the food coupon will kneel down.

After thinking for a long time, Fang Dajun finally decided to persevere and survive 1982. Once this year passes, Beidou can contract land, and there will be no food crisis. Although private transactions are not allowed, they can only go to the grain station to buy it or affiliate with the unit store.

But he can use "borrow" and directly seeking various communes to borrow food in the factory is considered to have policies above and countermeasures below.

One of the keys is that if the workers' household registration is now attached to the cement factory, although the cement factory has the qualification to supply grain, these workers will lose their land. They are not agricultural household registration, but they cannot allocate land. Therefore, he will ask the workers to decide whether they are willing to transfer their household registration to the cement factory. However, according to his estimate, everyone is willing, because the dream of the villagers is to want a "non-agricultural household registration".

So he planned to drag it out. After 1982, the workers decided to do it when the land was contracted in co-production. After all, the cement factory was built in the countryside, not in the city, and the land and work assigned by the workers could be taken into account.

Of course, if there is no land, it means you don’t have to submit it for purchase. The benefits are naturally great. Non-agricultural household registration is very powerful now and has great appeal.

I shook my head and it was a bit difficult to choose. I would do it as planned and I would like to survive this year.

Now that the food has loosened, the price is slightly higher, you can use grain coupons to sweep out some grain. For example, if you can buy a pound of rice or a pound of fried dough sticks in cash, you can buy a pound of fried dough sticks in one pound of grain coupons. For example, a bowl of large meat noodles costs 30 cents, but a 20 cents plus 4 ounces of grain can be exchanged for this bowl of noodles, which will be four cents cheaper than using all cash.

There is a price difference here. For example, if the residents of the town have the qualification to exchange grain, they will exchange it in full every month, then open shops to sell and collect cash, which can make a small profit. However, once consumption expands, these stores will not dare to supply cash and grain, but at most this situation is only a small range.

Fang Dajun pressed his temples. This was the only place he was not very adaptable to this era. It was too damn bad. Many things were not only available for money, but various policies were also quite damn bad. But life was getting better and better.

After a few years of reform and development, he estimated that the food coupons would have to kneel down, because many migrant workers would go out in the countryside. If they go to the coast, they would cross the province, and they would need the most luxurious and most intimate "national food coupons"; this kind of "national universal food coupons" is simply "hard currency" and "foreign exchange". You cannot exchange it with local coarse grain coupons. You need to use rice coupons, face-to-face and oil coupons to exchange it, and you also need to issue a certificate from the unit! If a fake national food coupon is forged, you will be sentenced to five years in prison, which is a heavy sentence.

With workers, food coupons will definitely not be rated. Otherwise, these workers will earn money outside but cannot buy rice. It is impossible for them to eat vegetables every meal. Who can withstand it, and it is impossible for them to ship grain from their hometown in the countryside. In addition, the large number of workers recruiting must be temporary workers in private people-owned enterprises, or state-owned and collective enterprises. Then they do not have the qualifications to supply food coupons, and the factory cannot solve the problem of food. In the end, they have to rely on policies.

In fact, Fang Dajun is really guessing it right now. Two years later, in 1984, the Deep-Zheng (Defense Harmony) Special Zone abolished the food coupon system. Because there were too many people going to work, and if they did not cancel the food coupon, everyone would not buy food at all. For example, construction workers could not even eat, so they naturally did not want to go to Deep-Zheng, but the Special Zone needed workers to build it, and under forced pressure, the request to cancel the food coupon. However, the other places were not so lucky, and they had to wait until the early 1990s.

However, once farmers are assigned to the construction site, as long as the farmers do not "cross-regional" and live for a long time, it doesn't matter whether the food coupons are cancelled or not, and it has no impact on the farmers.

Fang Dajun now plans to develop a classic strategy of the ancients: "Cast the wall high, accumulate grain, and slowly become king!"

In fact, we just need to seize the time to build factory areas and accommodation while expanding the construction of supporting facilities such as factory areas and accommodation, because the current labor force is cheap, and we also have to contract land everywhere as warehouses, and we will also contract barren mountains, reservoirs, etc.!

At the same time, we also seize the time to buy grain. Taking advantage of the fact that every township has "cash grain", that is, the grain station department has household registration, and each town has thousands of kilograms of uncollected grain. In fact, this part of uncollected grain is really not much. The population of Beidou is over 20,000, and the annual cash grain is only a few thousand kilograms of uncollected grain. The grain also includes three types of rice, corn and wheat. On average, each person has less than half a kilogram of grain and is eaten in a meal.

This kind of cash grain is available in all places, but every place is limited. The reason for this part of the grain is that the local "purchase task" is completed well. The supply of grain from urban household registration is relatively high, so there will naturally be surplus grain. For example, today, the urban household registration plan is 10,000 kilograms of grain, but by the end of the year, only 8,000 kilograms of grain was purchased, so the remaining two thousand kilograms of grain can be made into cash grain, as long as it does not exceed the policy plan.

Fang Dajun wanted to sweep the grain out and "lent" it to the villagers of Jiaoshan because all the sweet potatoes in Jiaoshan were made into vermicelli this year, and the food shortage was relatively large. At the same time, when his factory lacked grain in the future, he asked Jiaoshan to "repay" the grain back. In fact, the money had been cleared up in the middle, but it was just a policy gap!

Suddenly he chuckled. It turned out that Li Yulan reminded him to save money and buy more food, which means this. No wonder he bought hundreds of kilograms of grain and put them in the house to stock up, and his parents were so happy. It was just because he hadn't understood the concept of "food coupons" before.

Also, the reason why the benevolent rice and the rice in the city are more expensive than Beidou is that they did not buy food coupons. The one he bought was cash rice, which would naturally be slightly higher than the market price.

He had already returned to the commune at this time. Wang Hongwen explained the information just now. He laughed at him on the spot and told him not to worry about food coupons. Because vermicelli is also food, you cannot just give it a chance outside. You can only buy sweet potatoes with coarse grain coupons. Vermicelli can also be considered coarse grains, and even fine grains. In counties and cities outside, you can exchange a lot of food coupons by selling vermicelli.

Wang Hongwen really thought he knew this, but unfortunately Fang Dajun is a modern person. He directly converted the calculation data into "money" and did not pay attention to these bills at all. If he hadn't had a sudden idea and implemented self-made bills in a cement factory, he wouldn't know how long it would take to understand it. (To be continued.)
