I Had a Home In 1982

   Chapter 96 95. Purchasing at the Acquisition Station (5K Medium Cup)

  Compared with the county town, the village feels much more dilapidated to Wang Yi.

  The roads are all dirt roads.

   There are too many potholes and pits, and Wang Yi, who runs it, suspects that this road is fine and has leprosy.

   However, there are many people in the countryside these days, and the village is quite lively.

  There are also many shops on both sides of the road, so Wang Yi looked at it curiously.

Knowing that it was his first time in the village, Wang Xianghong introduced him: "The distribution of units in our commune is not good. The second commune has seven stations and eight stations. You can't match them all today. You have to find them all. Walk around the commune."

   Wang Yi nodded.

  The Second Cooperative has seven stations and eight offices. He knew that the Second Cooperative was a supply and marketing cooperative and a credit cooperative.

   Seven stations are agricultural technology station, agricultural machinery station, animal husbandry and veterinary station, family planning service station, cultural broadcasting station, seed station, and purchasing station.

  The eight are the police station, the land management office, the judicial office, the post and telecommunications office, the substation, the local tax office, the national tax office, and the industrial and commercial office.

   Their goal is the acquisition station. This station is located in the outer corner of Fuhai Township, specifically in the northeast corner.

   Zhao Laobian gave him a rude and vivid introduction to the location: "Someone is urinating at the entrance of the acquisition station. If you are more vigorous, you can smash the border of our commune!"

   Wang Yi laughed.

   Wang Xianghong pointed to the side and said, "Look, that's our credit union."

  The building of the credit union is quite fashionable compared to this era. It is a brand new two-story building with bright tiles.

  It has white tiles on the outside, four red lacquered doors opposite to the door, and a large red lacquered window with six panes of glass on each side.

   There are four vertical glass pieces on the four doors, with red slogans on them, in order:

   Warm service, welcome, national savings, serving the people.

   Two guards stood at the door, wearing military uniforms and carrying guns.

   Daqing donkey walked slowly and leisurely, and finally turned to the northeast corner and saw the acquisition station.

Wang Yi wanted to ask the difference between a purchase station and a supply and marketing cooperative. He thought that the supply and marketing cooperative was only about supply and sales, but Yao Dangbing and Pan Jinhai were both buyers and they could go to the countryside to purchase. Wouldn't this overlap with the function of the purchasing station? already?

   The question came to his mouth and he swallowed it again.

   This kind of question should be very abrupt in 1982. The common people know the difference between them. It is inappropriate for him to ask a college student.

   But when he got to the acquisition station, he realized that he shouldn't have asked, because the answer was there!

  Compared to the credit unions that are covered with white bricks, the buying station is rustic and messy.

   It is an old-fashioned compound with a blue brick exterior wall and a grey tile roof. A gate opens very wide. There is no door panel but an iron gate, which opens to reveal the yard.

  The main building is a house of blue bricks and gray tiles. There is a huge red five-star on the door. The left side is "turning old into new, and waste into treasure", and the right side is "developing economy and supporting construction".

   It is very lively inside and outside the compound. There are several donkey carts and ox carts parked at the entrance. Pedestrians come in and out.

  The courtyard was also lively. Several Eight Immortals tables were placed, and behind each table there were people sitting at the abacus or writing hard books.

  There are various kinds of goods in the yard - or garbage, this acquisition station looks a bit like a 22-year-old waste station in Wang Yi's opinion.

   But much more neatly.

   hasn't entered the acquisition station yet, and a noisy voice reached their ears:

   "Comrade, why is duck down ten dollars a pound and chicken feathers only eight points? Look at my chicken feathers, how good!"

"Big brother, let's get this pig in our team. It's been fed for more than a year. This pig breed is not good, and we don't have any feed. Just relying on a little pig grass will not grow well, and it will be free to continue to feed it. I've eaten a lot of the **** I've eaten, and it won't grow meat just by eating it!"

   "We're not here to catch pigs. You misunderstood the leader. Haha, we're also here to sell second-hand goods. The pigs in our team haven't come out of the pen, and we can't raise piglets yet."

   "Cuckoo, cluck, cluck!" "Quack, quack!" "Hum, snort, stick!"

  Wang Yi likes to be lively, and it is really joyful to see the scene like going to the market in this purchasing station, and he laughs happily.

   There are several cars parked in front of the door, and their donkey carts are queuing up.

   As a result, someone turned around to see Wang Xianghong's appearance and immediately waved: "Is Wang Zhishu here?"

   Wang Xianghong nodded his head: "Everyone is here?"

   Then someone said: "Wang Zhishu is here, and the Wang Zhishu of Tianya Island is here, comrades, let's let it go, let Wang Zhishu come first!"

   The ox carts and donkey carts lined up one after another gave way.

   Wang Yi realized that the old and stubborn party secretary in his eyes had a very high status and respect in the village.

   Wang Xianghong waved his hand: "Follow the rules, everything follows the rules."

  A middle-aged man in a blue tunic suit and a blue military cap came over and smiled: "Wang Zhishu, why did you come to our station? Tell Manager Xu anything, and they can almost accept it."

  Wang Xianghong said: "He is a big company, we fishermen are muddy, and we don't understand the company's business, so we should come to the acquisition station and know the way."

  The blue tunic is a very personal person, although Wang Xianghong's tone was indifferent, he still heard the voiceover: "Are you having trouble with Manager Xu?"

  Wang Xianghong said: "No, hey, stationmaster Ge, don't talk nonsense, I have to come to you, I'll come to catch pigs today."

The stationmaster   Ge was immediately happy: "Okay, that's good, it's good to raise pigs, raise more pigs, the city has been shouting for the past two years, vigorously develop the cause of pig raising and support socialist construction!"

   Wang Xianghong sighed and said, "It's not that we don't want to raise more pigs. Who wouldn't want to raise more pigs? But we don't have enough pig grass on our island, so we can't afford to feed too much. Last year, there wasn't enough pig grass to eat, and the pigs didn't grow well."

Farmers have always had a single source of income. In the era of large collectives, the fishing villages on the outer islands, apart from the fishing at sea, only raised pigs. The fishing at sea was based on work points and collective dividends. After a year, one family could get one share after deducting the expenses in the team. 200 yuan is considered to be a prodigy.

  Many fishermen usually go to the production team to advance their wages to buy food rations because of the large number of family members, the elderly and the children, so they still owe the production team throughout the year.

  Pig raising is a collective sideline supported by the state. The state needs pork supply cities and exports to generate foreign exchange, so all production teams are encouraged to raise pigs.

   The problem is that the outer islands do not have that condition. They all rely on pig grass to raise pigs. How much pig grass can they raise throughout the year?

  Master Ge naturally knew about this, so he asked, "Your team didn't come to sell pigs during the Chinese New Year last year. How are the pigs now?"

  Wang Xianghong shook his head, picked up the cigarette bag pot and blew out smoke rings: "It's not easy to raise, two of them were slaughtered a few days ago. I called the county to apply for it to sell in the collective market, and exchanged some money and votes for the team."

   "By the way, I have one more thing for you to come here today. Do you have a wire breaker here? We need it in our team."

  Ge said: "Yes, yes, but why do you want this? The electrical appliances in your team are flashlights and radios, and you don't need wire switches."

  Wang Xianghong said calmly, "My old comrade-in-arms came to see me this year. He has become the head of the military region. I got two generators through his relationship, and our team can also use light bulbs."

   Station Master Ge didn't think much about it, Wang Xianghong gave them the impression of being upright, spitting and nails.

   He said happily: "Okay, upstairs and downstairs, electric lights and telephones, you have become advanced in Tianya Island, and you have become the first outer island production team to use electric lights!"

   Wang Xianghong smiled.

   is proud.

   The waste they brought in line to sell is quite messy, including the big chicken bones that Wang Yi invited to eat chicken stewed with potatoes. It turns out that this can also be sold for money.

   Zhao Laobian said that this can be used as bone meal to feed livestock, so it also has recycling value.

Almost everything in the purchase station has value, chicken and duck feathers, waste batteries, toothpaste skins, various bones, turtle shells, orange peels, broken glass, broken cotton wool, cloth scraps, broken shoes, hair, etc. have their own territory.

   As for books and newspapers, broken copper and iron have to be recycled. These are valuables and should be sent directly to a wing.

   Wang Yi was amazed.

   In later generations, major cities made a mess of garbage sorting. It turned out that garbage sorting and recycling had been realized in 1982, and it was very accurate.

   It is really well-organized, the process is orderly, the allocation is orderly, and the classification is diverse.

   However, it is very laborious to sell. Each worker has a work manual, which has graded and price regulations for various goods.

   The veterans are already proficient in their work. They have a pair of keen eyes. They set what price for what grade, and the customers who come to sell have no objection.

   However, if a novice does this work, it can be difficult. Holding a copy of the "Acquisition Station Price Statistics Report" to study it over and over again, only after the study dares to make a quotation.

   As a result, customers still do not buy it, and people often question:

   "Comrade, this is not right, you see his orange peels are given a first grade, why is my family a second grade?"

   "What's the matter with you, comrade, I have measured this hair at home, it's 61 cm not 59 cm, your price is unreasonable..."

   "Oh comrade, hurry up, we've been here for a while, why hasn't it been our turn yet, look at the long queue!"

   The new worker with a green face was anxious and helpless, his face flushed and his forehead was sweating.

At this time, Wang Xianghong couldn't help but went up and said: "Don't make it difficult for others, everyone who eats this bowl of rice is a bowl of water. You can see that he pulls both sides with one hand. He can't let the country suffer, nor let our farmers suffer. Work Be careful, it will inevitably be slower.”

   "Slow work and careful work is also good."

   When Wang Xianghong spoke, no one sneered at him for meddling with his own business. They all smiled and honestly queued up.

  The young worker looked up at Wang Xianghong, and his face was full of gratitude.

   But the team did progress relatively slowly.

Station Master Ge said: "Wang Zhishu, you can line up by yourself. I will lead this young comrade to pick piglets first. Today, less than 200 pigs were delivered, and a lot of pigs have been picked in front of you. Go and pick, I guess there are only sick seedlings left."

   Wang Xianghong hesitated.

  Ge stationmaster smiled and said, "What's wrong? Can I still fool your team with a sick child?"

   Having said that, Shang Wang Xianghong has nothing to say.

   He nodded to Wang Yi and said, "Go with the stationmaster Ge, pick two that are smooth and smooth."

  The piglets are kept in the pigsty at the back. They are all black pigs of the same color. They are all quite cute, with round heads, round heads and round butts.

   Someone is picking here, and the selection is very careful. After reading it carefully, I shook my head and ran away.

   Station Master Ge calmly blocked the figure and asked, "Comrade, how many pigs are in your team to catch today?"

  Wang Yi said: "Two."

  Ge stationmaster said: "What are two good for? It's not worth running errands, so let's catch ten!"

  Wang Yi was taken aback.

  Am I running a school or a farm? In the end is to impart knowledge or fatten pigs?

   He quickly explained that it was the school raising pigs, not the collective pig raising, and the stationmaster Ge suddenly realized: "Understood, then catch five."

  Wang Yi thinks five are acceptable. The team does not dare to raise more pigs, not because there is a policy that only a few pigs can be raised, but as much food as the mouth is, and there are few pig grass on Tianya Island, so they can't raise too many pigs.

   Another school raises too many pigs and it doesn't sound good - he has to feed the pigs by picking hogweed from the students. If he raises too many pigs, doesn't he treat the students as child laborers?

  Wang Yi thinks this problem is not a problem. The big deal is that he brought pig feed back to raise pigs in 2022, and the pigs can’t speak. At night, he desperately spreads pig feed to make them full.

  Master Ge and the technician started to catch pigs for him, and caught five little fat pigs with round heads, round heads and round butts.

  The five little pigs were put into a basket and dragged out, the sound of pigs being slaughtered all the way.

  Wang Xianghong almost threw the cigarette pot on the ground after seeing these pigs: "I'm grass, I know that Lao Ge must be uneasy and kind when he finds you to catch the pigs. Damn, five pigs, how do you feed them?"

  Wang Yi said: "It's okay, Party Secretary, my university..."

   "You still learn how to raise pigs in college?" Wang Xianghong subconsciously caught his words.

  Wang Yi said: "No, no, I read a book on scientific pig raising in the library in my university. The book said that some seaweed can also be fed to pigs. I will go back and try it."

  Wang Xianghong shook his head: "That's bad enough, seaweed is easy to feed pigs and loses meat, unless it's kelp and wakame, but kelp wakame can sell for money!"

  Wang Yi said: "You see me, I can do it."

   Piglets are also sold by kilograms, and they are not expensive, one yuan per kilogram. The piglets here are well-proportioned and they are about ten pounds, and the five pigs are 52 yuan and 60 cents in total.

  No bargaining.

  Wang Yi now has money in selling grain, he went to pay the money, Wang Xianghong held him down and shouted, "Lao Ge, Lao Ge, come out, I have something to ask you."

  The office is quiet.

  Wang Xianghong was very angry: "Don't put a tortoise in it for me, I know you are in the office, you have the ability to fool our college students, why don't you have the ability to come out and talk to me?"

   A Mediterranean man ran out and said with a smile:

"Wang Zhishu, Director Ge just took a call and went out to Manager Xu. Manager Xu asked him for a meeting. Really, you and Manager Xu are good friends, and I wouldn't dare to use him to fool you even if I made up nonsense. right?"

   He saw that Wang Xianghong's face was not good-looking, and said: "But when our station chief Ge left, we said, if you have any requirements, feel free to mention them, our purchasing station serves the people, and we will try our best to meet your needs!"

"Oh yes," he suddenly patted his head, "the wires and switches we purchased at the station have been sorted out for you, no more money, our station chief said that your team became the first to use the outer island production team. The power-on is advanced, and our acquisition station will support you to carry out advanced work!"

   Wang Xianghong got angry when he heard this.

   At this time, Wang Yi said, "Hello, leader, that's it, I have a request that I want to mention."

  Mediterranean said politely: "Little comrade, you can mention it casually."

  Wang Yi said, "Can I buy something from you?"

  Mediterranean said: "Yes, we also sell the things in the purchase station, but at the price set by the state."

  Wang Yi said: "This is no problem."

   He has been collecting antiques recently, so he wants to see if there are any antiques and relics here. If so, wouldn’t it be a big profit?

   Besides, he was able to receive the first edition of RMB, monkey tickets, and even the treasures such as Qihe Zhong and Yin Yang Zhen in such a closed place on Tianya Island. Can he still find them at this acquisition station?

   Then he probably turned around.

   I found that there are so many things here, but they are all rubbish...

   There may be treasures in the junk, but he doesn't have a pair of discerning eyes!

   He originally wanted to collect some old objects with a simple appearance, such as bronzes, old inkstones, old furniture, and old porcelain, but he couldn't find them at all.

   So he asked the Mediterranean quietly: "Leader, don't you have any old things sent by our fellow villagers here?"

Seeing his expectant expression, Mediterranean suddenly smiled: "Are you looking for antiques? Do you want to find this at our acquisition station? Now there are regulations in the city, as long as we receive objects with old photos, we have to give them to the city museum. Send it to the experts for appraisal!"

   Hearing this, Wang Yi immediately gave up.

   These days, people in the village may not understand the market of antiques, but the city has long been aware of it!

   In line with the principle of thieves not going empty, he still took some things.

   They are all scraps with the best possible appearance, such as old kettle skins, old clocks, broken leather bags, etc. Anyway, the prices are cheap, you can go back and let Yuan Hui identify them one by one.

   Anyway, talents like Yuan Dashi are not needed or wasted.

  There is also a small warehouse dedicated to collecting discarded newspapers and books in the purchasing station. There are piles of newspapers in it, all **** with ropes.

  Mediterranean introduced that this was a newspaper ordered by the township credit union for many years. The credit union redecorated the decoration in the spring of this year, so they unified the newspapers and sent them over to sell waste paper.

  Wang Yi flipped through the pages. There was a wide range of newspapers here. From 1970 to February this year, the types of newspapers were also very complete. This suddenly reminded him of the birthday newspaper business.

   This business can't make a lot of money, but still, the thief doesn't get away with it, he can't come to this buying station for nothing!

   Mosquito legs are also meat.

   Mr. Wang has no other advantages, he is just a person who knows how to live!

   So he patted the newspaper and said, "Can you sell me these old newspapers?"

   He was about to find a reason for the purchase when Wang Xianghong asked, "Are you going to use newspapers to paste the inner walls of the school?"

  Wang Yi was taken aback, this is a good reason.

  Wang Xianghong added: "There are some in the newspaper team, enough for you."

  Wang Yi had to find a reason for himself and said, "No, I was thinking that the students in our school don't have toys, so I bought some newspapers and taught them to fold paper toys."

   Wang Xianghong suddenly said: "Oh, this needs more."

   The well-preserved newspapers here totaled more than ten stacks, and the purchasing station sold them to him by the pound, which cost less than twenty yuan in total.

  Other sundries are even less valuable, and it doesn’t cost ten dollars in total.

   But Wang Xianghong also felt that he was in a mess.

   Thirty yuan is enough to earn a month's worth of work points, but as a result, Wang Yi bought a bunch of junk?

   He decided to go back and beat this teacher Wang.

   Mr. Wang is good in everything, but he can't live a life!

   This is not good, a man who can't live can't get a wife in the countryside!

   If you can't get a wife, you won't have children!

  No one goes to the grave after the death of a child!
