Unlike Rong Zhaonan, Ning Yuan was in a particularly good mood today.
Because she's having an especially great day!
First, she took her ration tickets and fifty cents to buy two meat buns and a bowl of meat flour. She ate until she was full.
At this time, the meat buns from the state-run hotel were fragrant and flavorful, unlike those raised in decades to come, which lacked the aroma of pigs.
Besides being a little fatty, it's fine.
The minced meat cooked with bamboo shoots, fermented black beans, garlic and pork is delicious and appetizing. She finished two ounces of noodles in a flash.
Then, while I was eating noodles at the state-run hotel, I heard the chef tell the cashier that the county committee reception center is going to host a banquet soon.
Because a sudden inspection team from the provincial city arrived yesterday, the county has to make temporary arrangements to receive them.
The county officials requested a local specialty menu, and this sudden reception mission left the chefs and food buyers in a bind. Many of the signature ingredients need to be pre-ordered.
Ning Yuan's eyes lit up instantly, she wiped her mouth, and immediately leaned in to inquire about the specialty dishes with the other person. Was the smoked wild boar a good option
Since her aunt got injured, she hasn't visited her once.
Her mother did write her several letters, berating her soundly, and cut off her monthly allowance of two dollars and fifty cents. She didn't even bother to open the letters.
From now on, she's got to earn her own living!
The cashier looked her up and down curiously and asked, “Well now, girl, your family can still get smoked wild boar meat”
These days, if a village catches a wild boar, they wouldn't sell it. Instead, the meat would be shared with the entire production team to improve their diet.
Ning Yuan smiled and opened her basket: "This isn't poverty, I just want to take the boar meat we won and smoke it, then exchange it for some money to supplement the family."
When the elder sister saw it, oh my, there was at least twenty or thirty pounds of smoked meat!
She looked at Ning Yuan, so thin and delicate. With her smooth face and bright eyes, she seemed to be a kind and honest girl at first glance.
She thought for a moment: "Alright, the county committee is in charge of procurement, and it's my nephew who handles it. I'll ask him for you."
Anyway, I can help my nephew solve this pressing problem.
Ning Yuan instantly expressed her deepest gratitude and honestly sat at the state-run hotel, deciding to stay put.
I waited until Aunt Zhang, whose last name was Zhang, got off work at 4 p.m., then followed her to the county committee guesthouse with a basket on my back.
The county guesthouse is already the best in the entire county. It's a clean and tidy four-story brick building.
The first floor is for dining, and the second floor and above are for living.
Zhang Da Jie instructed Ning Yuan to wait at the back door, and she herself entered the guesthouse.
A man in his thirties, wearing a blue work shirt, soon came out.
"Chapter Two, it's this girl, she brought some wild boar bacon, you see if you want it" Sister Zhang pointed at Ningyuan.
The man called Zhang Er sized up Ning Yuan and motioned for her to open the basket. “Let me have a look at the ingredients first. Smoked meat, if it’s not done right, will either be too pungent or go moldy.”
Ning Yuan immediately opened her basket and showed him, "Look, these were all just smoked these days, they definitely won't go bad. I was very careful."
Chapter Two took out a piece of smoked meat to look at. The white part was oily and shiny, hard and chewy when squeezed. The lean parts were black and red, emitting a smoky aroma.
He took out his knife again, cut a slice, and put it in his mouth. He nodded with satisfaction: "The meat tastes good."
He doesn't actually like smoked meats that are too dry or too oily, as they don't have a good texture when fried.
"I'll take all the meat here. How much is it per pound" Zhang Er said as he brought out the scale.
Ning Yuan thought for a moment: "State-run fresh pork is currently 9.2 yuan per kilogram for the first grade and 8.7 yuan for the second grade. My wild boar meat is rare, so it should at least be considered first grade. Then, 45 kilograms of fresh meat can yield about 30 kilograms of smoked meat."
"Even if we only count the cost of the meat, it would still be 41.4 yuan. Give me 40 yuan and I'll throw in 30 kilograms of national food ration stamps, how about that" Ning Yuan asked.
State-owned meat requires a ration certificate and a meat ticket to purchase. Even then, you can only get good quality meat for 92 cents per kilogram.
On the black market, if you don't have ration tickets to buy good meat, the price at least doubles, to two blocks, and you may not even be able to buy it.
Moreover, this was a rare wild boar meat. Ningyuan felt that she was very conscientious.
Chapter 2 was startled: “Well, you little girl is quite good at arithmetic, you're pretty good at calculating. But these national ration tickets are not easy to get. And why do you need so many national ration tickets Aren't you from the countryside”
National ration coupons were only available to employees on business trips. Besides, rural households weren't in the city and wouldn't need ration coupons anyway. It was nationwide ration coupons.g married mean having a wife, kids, and a warm kang (traditional Chinese heating bed)Then... then I really don't want to return to the battlefield anymore, I've lost my fighting spiritChen Chen trembl...
