I Had a Home In 1982

   Chapter 129 128. Surprise from RMB (Monday is another 16,000 update)

  The cultural performance in the Sports Square was very lively. The students of Tianya Elementary School were brought to the front row of the auditorium in the square because they were neatly dressed and in high spirits, and had a clear view.

   There are too few entertainment activities for the students. For visual enjoyment, there is at most a group watching a movie. Have you ever seen a song and dance performance?

   One by one, their eyes were fixed, the applause continued, their excited faces turned red, and their slaps turned red.

  Wang Yi has no interest in singing and dancing.

   He was chatting with Qiu Weishui.

   Qiu Weishui's mood fluctuates greatly. After coming out of extreme excitement, it immediately begins to sink to the bottom of the valley. This kind of mood fluctuation is very harmful to the spirit and psychology.

  Wang Yi understood this, so he found the topic of gymnastics to extend, and stabilized Qiu Weishui's emotions.

   This was treated in a professional psychiatrist, and he had seen some conversation skills of a psychiatrist, and he used this kind of talk to chat with Qiu Weishui.

   For example, on the topic of gymnastics, he used interview-style chats, and let Qiu Weishui play the topic.

   This has another advantage. He has learned a lot about Qiu Weishui's past.

Qiu Weishui was quite good in her youth. She once entered the preliminary selection team of the provincial gymnastics team, but at that time she was troubled by psychological problems. In the end, she trained in the preliminary selection team for several years but failed to achieve good results, so she could only turn to other aspect.

   As for her secondment to a cultural troupe, this is because she has a background in dancing. Her mother is a dancer, so she was first exposed to dance and then turned to gymnastics when she was a child.

   She didn't say much about the specifics. When she mentioned dancing and her mother, her mood was extremely fluctuating. Wang Yi quickly changed the topic.

   The singing and dancing performance in the square does not last long, only one hour. After all, May 1st Labor Day is not a big festival like Mid-Autumn Festival, National Day or Chinese New Year.

  The last chorus of the factory "We Workers Have Power" ended, and the celebration of the event also ended. All schools and units brought them back.

  Wang Yi asked the teaching assistants to come out to count the personnel, and shouted: "Be careful, one cannot be missing! How many are there when you come, and how many must be when you go back!"

   Fortunately, the current students are easy to manage. Wang Yi has repeatedly emphasized that they should not be left behind, so the students at most went to the toilet in private, and did not dare to leave the team and mess around.

   But their hearts flew away.

There was a singing and dancing performance just now that could attract their attention. Now that the performance was over, the queues brought them back. The students saw the food stalls on the roadside of the square, and they suddenly couldn’t stabilize. Their eyes were like being hooked by a fish hook. Hooked on the snacks in the stall.

   The service department of the county food factory set up a stall on the roadside. There are not many categories, mainly all kinds of sugar, maltose, rice krispies, nougat, hard fructose, sorghum jelly, and a red shrimp cake.

In addition, there are fried melon seeds, fried peanuts, iron broad beans, biscuits, etc. The most expensive ones are canned fruits. The transparent glass cans contain large pieces of peaches, hawthorn, apricot meat, etc., attracting students passing by All kinds of drooling.

  The students of Tianya Elementary School are also drooling, and some people ask: "Which of these candies is the best?"

   Others shouted: "Sorghum glutinous rice is the best, soft and sweet."

   "Red shrimp crisps are delicious. They are crispy and sweet. If you put them in your mouth, your mouth will be sweet."

   "I like to eat maltose. Maltose is so sweet."

   Listening to their words, Qiu Wei touched her body consciously, and then realized that the cheongsam had no pockets, she said, "Wait for me."

   She ran away quickly and ran to the makeshift changing room behind the stage.

   Even wearing a cheongsam can run very fast, as vigorous as a female deer.

Wang Yi was amazed, these long legs are amazing, no, girls of this age are full of vitality, 22-year-old Internet celebrities also have similar long legs, but they are not artificial and lack a kind of health. Active beauty.

   Qiu Weishui came back soon. She had money and sugar tickets in her hand and stuffed them into the food factory salesperson wearing a white hood and a white lab coat:

   "Give me a mix of sorghum glutinous rice, maltose, and red shrimp crisps, um, and peanuts. Let me know how many non-staple food tickets I have? Buy peanuts."

  Wang Yi understood what she meant, and hurried over to persuade: "Don't, don't, you don't need to spend money, I have money..."

   "What does your money have to do with me?" Qiu Weishui asked curiously.

   Wang Yi explained: "I mean I can buy candy by myself."

   Qiu Weishui said: "You buy yours and I buy mine, what does it matter? Do you think I bought it for you?"

  Wang Yi smirked.

   Qiu Weishui also smiled: "I didn't buy it for you, I bought it for my classmates."

   She said softly again, "Auntie has too little money today to buy canned food. I'll invite you to eat canned food later, okay?"

  The students cheered and said yes, they were so happy.

   Qiu Weishui bought a lot of candies, one person can get a handful.

   This made the students so happy, Wang Xinzhao formally led the students to give her a Young Pioneer salute.

   The students of the school next to them were very envious. Some students from Shuihua Elementary School knew Wang Xinzhao and the others, and they asked loudly, "Who is this beautiful aunt? Why are you giving you candy?"

   Wang Ugly Cat subconsciously replied: "It's our teacher Wang's classmate!"

   Now the whole team on Tianya Island knows that Mr. Wang has classmates all over the world, and they are all generous and support the development of the island in all aspects.

   Wang Zhuangyuan sighed regretfully with his hands behind his back: "It would be great if Mr. Wang's daughter-in-law was good, Mr. Wang was very good, and so was his daughter-in-law, so we are blessed."

  Wang Yi asked Qiu Weishui: "I want to take the students back, what are your plans? Oh, about the follow-up medicines, I will go to the city today and buy them for you."

   Qiu Weishui said: "I'm fine today, I'll rest today and tomorrow. If you want to buy medicine in the city, I'll go with you, just to let me know what medicine to buy."

  Wang Yi was stunned.

   Such a beautiful girl taking the initiative to stay by her side, this is really a dream scene.

   But why am I so unhappy?

He quickly explained to Qiu Weishui: "When I go to the city to buy medicine, I don't go to the pharmacy to buy it directly. I go to the city to call my classmates and ask them to help me buy medicine from an old doctor. This is the medicine made by others. , I don't even know what it's called."

   Fortunately, last time he pulled the pills out of the plastic and wrapped them in newspapers, otherwise he really couldn't explain the source.

   Qiu Weishui said: "Okay."

  Wang Yi said: "Otherwise, let's go home and rest today, leave me an address, and when the medicine arrives, I will let the comrades from the post and telecommunications office deliver it to you."

   Qiu Weishui waved his hand: "You don't need to give it to me, I'll go and get it from you. I know Tianya Island. I heard someone say that Wang Zhishu of your production team is a very respected old comrade."

   After she said this, she did not leave, but accompanied Wang Yi to bring the team back to the dock.

   Back at the pier, Wang Yi handed the people over to Bold. He said that he would drop by the city and not go back to Tianya Island with them.

  Bold and the others were not surprised by this, and nodded and returned to the ship.

  Wang Yi still had to wait for Yao Dangbing to send him the third edition of RMB. The place they agreed on at the time was the Sports Square, so he went back to the square first.

At the intersection of the square, someone in front of the booth said: "Comrade, I came here to look for the house of my comrade-in-arms, but I couldn't find it for a few days, so what, I have spent all the food stamps and money I brought, can I ask you to borrow it? Two food stamps and money? I'll definitely give it back to you when I get home."

  The crowd in the square was scattered, and the service department of the food factory began to close its stalls. At this time, only two salesmen were left to work.

   One of the salesmen said lightly: "I'm sorry, we are here to sell goods, and we don't have money or tickets with us."

   Another salesperson pointed to the cash box and said, "It's public property, we dare not touch it."

  Wang Yi heard the sound and looked over, and an older youth dressed in a green army cap, green army uniform, and Jiefang rubber shoes was standing in front of the booth in embarrassment.

   Qiu Weishui also looked over and asked, "Comrade, are you a soldier of the People's Liberation Army?"

   The young man turned around and rubbed his trousers with his hands, showing a dry smile, and said, "I am a retired soldier, and I was just discharged from the army at the beginning of this year."

When Qiu Weishui heard this, he took out several unused food stamps from his jacket and handed them to him, saying: "I have no money on me now, comrade of the People's Liberation Army, wait for me with the food stamps, I still have My colleagues haven't left yet, so I went to them to borrow money."

   She added: "Don't worry, we won't let PLA soldiers go hungry."

  The youth gave a grateful salute: "Thank you, lesbian, thank you for your trust, I will definitely return the money and tickets to you when I get home."

   Qiu Weishui said: "You don't have to promise, I believe it."

   She is going to run with her long legs again.

  Wang Yi said: "No, no, I have money with me, use my money."

   He brought a lot of money with him, because this time he planned to go to the Wengzhou City Post and Telecommunications Bureau to make a regular settlement, so he took out a lot of money and took a few cards of Great Unity and handed them to the youth.

   The youth hurriedly said: "There is no need to borrow so much, thank you two..."

   "You can use it first. If you can't use it, send us the remittance together. If the poor family is rich, it's better to prepare more money outside." Wang Yi held the young man's wrist.

   He asked again: "Which army are you from? Isn't the war in southern Xinjiang still going on? Why did you retire this year?"

   The youth smiled bitterly and said, "My name is Sun Zhengnan. I used to serve in a field army. According to the instructions of the Military Commission, our full-staff divisions have been changed to compendium divisions, and some soldiers will be demobilized or transferred."

   Qiu Weishui said: "Is it the policy of streamlining and disarmament issued by the Central Military Commission last August?"

Sun Zhengnan pursed his lips and nodded: "Well, to be precise, it is the "Plan on the Streamlining and Reorganization of the Army". The army and divisions will increase the proportion of special forces, enhance air defense, anti-tank firepower and assault power, and improve mobility; Change from full-staffed divisions to compendium divisions; streamline coastal garrison troops; abolish independent divisions of provincial military regions; transfer some of the troops responsible for internal guard duty to the public security department…”

   He glanced at the square, and his face was a little sad: "We have too many people in our division, and we need to cut some of them. Well, that's it."

  Wang Yi recalled, as if he had read the introduction in the newspaper before.

   The PLA Army began to streamline and reorganize in the fourth quarter of 1980, and the reorganization task was basically completed by the end of 1981, with a huge scale of 700,000 streamlined personnel.

  Sun Zhengnan asked again: "Can you leave your address and name? I will mail you the coins and tickets as soon as I get home."

   Qiu Weishui waved his hand and said, "You don't need to mail it to me, you can leave the information of this teacher Wang, just return the money to him. I won't be able to use those food stamps anyway."

   Wang Yi didn't like the money either. He told Sun Zhengnan that he didn't need to pay it back, but Sun Zhengnan insisted that he must leave his address, so he had to leave the address of the primary school.

   Yao Dangbing also came at this time, he waved to Wang Yi across the distance, Qiu Weishui smiled at Wang Yi when he saw a stranger coming, and waved too, but she was leaving.

After Yao Dangbing came running, he punched Wang Yi's shoulder excitedly: "Mr. Wang, I knew you would bring students to participate in the activity today, so I kept searching for the teams on both sides of the street, and sure enough, I saw it all at once. it's your turn!"

   Wang Yi smiled and said, "Have you collected all the RMB we use now?"

   Yao Dangbing took out two envelopes and handed them to him, and said, "Yes, I have collected all the two versions of RMB that you use now."

   "Two versions of RMB?" Wang Yi asked in surprise, "In addition to the third set of RMB, you also collected the second set of RMB for me?"

  There are two kinds of popular banknotes in the market now, the second set of RMB that began to circulate in 1955 and the third set of RMB issued in 1962.

   However, the second set of RMB is relatively rare, and now banks cannot accept it. The second set of RMB is gradually withdrawing from the market. Now there are mainly some small-denominated coins left. Anyway, Wang Yi has never seen one.

   He opened the envelope and saw that the coins inside were arranged according to the size of the amount, the smallest one cent was on the top, and the largest ten yuan was on the bottom.

   One of the ten dollars in the envelope is the current common great unity.

   There is another ten yuan in unfamiliar black, with the national emblem and currency value on one side, and a male worker and a female peasant standing together on the other, with the worker pointing forward and the woman holding a bundle of wheat ears.

   This ten yuan is the maximum value of the second edition of RMB. Because it is black, it is respected by the collection circle as Dahei Pickup.

  Wang Yi was surprised: "It's really the second set of RMB, have you collected it?"

Yao Dangbing said proudly: "Yes, what kind of skill is it to collect only one third set of RMB? I collected it easily. This second set of RMB is really difficult. I entrusted several friends in the bank to help me get it together. The whole set, by coincidence, I got the last three-yuan coupon yesterday..."

   "You've worked hard, but this money isn't from a collector, right?" Wang Yi asked nervously.

   The last full-page monkey ticket gave him a lingering fear.

   Don't get stuff from collectors, it's hardly 22 years old.

   Yao Dangbing asked suspiciously: "What collectors? Are there really people who collect this renminbi? Some of them are, what are some good ones to collect?"

  Wang Yi said: "The circulation will gradually stop in the future, just like the first edition of RMB, and now the first edition of RMB will not be seen?"

   Yao Dangbing nodded: "Indeed, but what if you can't see it?"

  Wang Yi was stunned and said, "So they are worth collecting."

   "What's the value?" Yao Dangbing couldn't understand the meaning of collecting, "Do you collect this kind of RMB? What do you want?"

Wang Yi couldn't explain it to him, so he just patted him on the shoulder and said, "Anyway, I'm very grateful to you, you've helped me a lot, I've always wanted to collect a second set of RMB but I can't get it, you give it to me. Received, it's great too!"

   Yao Dangbing winked at him: "I'm just helping you keep it, not giving you the money."

   These two sets of RMB are big sets, but they are a lot of money.

  There are two versions of RMB, the big set and the small set. The big set is a collection of all denominations and versions of this version of the banknotes, which is the most complete and the most valuable.

  A small set is generally just a collection of all face values, not all versions, and the price and value are relatively much lower.

Take the third edition of RMB as an example, the small set is 15 pieces, including 1 cent, 2 cents, 5 cents, 1 yuan, 2 yuan, 5 yuan, 10 yuan each, 4 pieces in 1 corner, 2 pieces in 2 corners Zhang and 5 corners have 2 cards.

The big set contains a total of 27 banknotes: 2 for 10 yuan, 2 for 5 yuan, 2 for 2 yuan, 3 for 1 yuan, 3 for 5 corners, 3 for 2 corners, 9 for 1 corner, 1 for 5 cents, 2 Divide 1 piece, 1 point 1 piece.

  To sum up, the complete set of the third edition of RMB is 40.08 yuan. For Yao Dangbing, who is still an apprentice, this is almost his monthly salary.

  Wang Yi patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I'm just entrusting you to help collect coins, not for you to give me this set of coins, I'll definitely exchange them for you—"

   "No, I'll round up a whole number for you, and I'll give you a total of 100 yuan for these two sets of RMB!"

   Yao Dangbing said with a smile: "That's not necessary, you just need to buy me a set of beautiful headdresses and flowers as you said."

  Wang Yi said: "I must, I must, don't be polite to me. It is really hard for you to collect these two sets of RMB for me. I understand that."

   In the 1980s, the third edition of the RMB full set was released. Because it is now circulating in the market, it is not difficult to put together a set.

  The difficulty is to make up a big set for the second set of RMB.

This second set of renminbi was issued on March 1, 1955. The purpose was to deal with the inflation problem left before liberation. Due to the deterioration of relations with Soviet Russia in the later period, some banknotes were previously printed with the help of the Soviet Russian big brother. This part It was completely withdrawn from circulation on May 15, 1964.

   Among them, Daheishi is one of the banknotes that the Soviet Russian eldest brother helped to print. This is also the reason for the high value of Daheishi. It stopped circulating very early, and there are very few leftovers in the market!

  Wang Yi saw the second set of renminbi before selling food in the team to collect money. He wanted to get a small set, but when he got together, he found that there were only a few common ones in the team.

   Yao Dangbing helped him a lot this time.

   The value of the second set of RMB can reach 400,000!

   So what does he count as a hundred yuan for Yao Dangbing? He is now particularly grateful to Yao Dangbing for his help, and he is going to give him a set of beautiful head accessories for free!

   But he didn't have much money now, part of it was handed over to Sun Zhengnan, and part of it had to be settled with the Post and Telecommunications Bureau, so he gave Yao Dangbing a credit.

   Yao Dangbing didn't care, because Wang Yi said that he was going to the Shanghai Post and Telecommunications Office to pick up the express mail sent to him by his classmates. Among them, the headdress he wanted was inside!

   So next Monday he can go to Tianya Island, and then Wang Yi will give him the money and head ornaments.
