Chapter 54 Big Toe Leather Shoes, Bicycle Ticket

More than ten minutes later, Li Jiayi came outside the compound, but he did not take any action.

Because at this time, many people have not gone to work yet. How could the people living in this courtyard be the same as ordinary employees?

Ordinary employees walk to work, and they leave very early for fear of being late, but everyone in this hospital has a car.

Li Jiayi stood at the entrance of the alley, staring at the gate of the compound, watching the cars driving out one after another. To be honest, Li Jiayi was very envious.

One can imagine the status of people who can ride in a car in this era.

After more than half an hour, no more cars came out, and Li Jiayi knew that he could start.

He lit up the half stick of incense that was not used up last time, and took out three firecrackers from the space.

After lighting the fuse, throw them into the air one by one.

"boom!"

Three loud noises sounded in the air, and Li Jiayi hurriedly ran into the alley.

After entering the contract, he took out a torn sack from the space and spread it on the ground, then took out a dozen plates of sacks.

It’s better to take this thing out first, otherwise there’s no way to explain how to take it out.

Mainly because he planned to change more things today.

In less than five minutes, someone came running over. When he saw the burlap mines on the torn sack, the boy's eyes lit up.

There is no way. Now they know how useful the Ma Lei Zi is. Not only can they be played with, but they can also be used to fry fish.

Yes, the Ma Leizi uses a fuse, so it is no problem to light it and throw it into the water. It is also very powerful and there is no problem using it as an explosive.

Don't forget, this is what the villagers use to chase wild boars. It can even injure wild boars, so frying a fish is nothing.

"Here, see how much I can exchange?" The boy handed a handful of tickets to Li Jiayi and asked.

Li Jiayi took it and looked at it. There were a lot of tickets, and they were of various kinds. The first one was a bicycle ticket, and it was a universal ticket.

Yes, there are two types of bicycle tickets, a general ticket and a fixed ticket.

A fixed ticket not only indicates the bicycle brand, but also the model.

Moreover, this type of ticket has a time limit, the shortest being three months and the longest being two years, and can only be used locally.

The universal ticket is different. It does not specify what kind of bicycle it is, nor does it mark the model. Most importantly, this universal ticket is not only time-limited, but can be used throughout the country.

Yes, it’s similar to the national food coupons.

The difference is that this universal ticket is not more expensive than a fixed ticket, mainly because no one would go out of town to buy a bicycle!

Unless it is a job transfer, or the tickets are mailed to relatives or friends in other places.

Li Jiayi took out the bicycle ticket and continued to look at other tickets.

He took all the cigarette and liquor tickets, but as for the butcher's tickets, oil tickets, and other miscellaneous tickets, he didn't want any of them.

Because this thing is useless to him. Of course, if there were national food coupons, Li Jiayi would have kept them, but forget about the local food coupons.

This thing must be used within the same month. He is not buying food, so what is the use of it? He can get some national food coupons and use them later.

After selecting, he handed the unwanted tickets to the boy.

Then he picked up the selected tickets and said, "One bicycle ticket, five wine tickets, one and three boxes of Grade A cigarette tickets, two packs of Grade B cigarette tickets, 17 jin of national grain tickets, and I'll give you two plates of ma leizi. What do you think?"

"Okay, okay." The boy nodded quickly.

The price he offered this time was relatively low. There was no other way. There were too few Ma Leizi! Besides, it was not easy to go to Liucun Commune.

He picked up two plates of maleizi and handed them to the boy. The boy took it and ran away, which made Li Jiayi speechless, as if he was afraid that he would regret it.

"next."

"Give."

He took the tickets and looked at them. Although there were a lot of tickets, Li Jiayi didn't need many. He only needed tobacco and alcohol tickets and national food tickets. The rest were useless.

"Six wine tickets, two packs of Grade A cigarette tickets, three and a half packs of Grade B cigarette tickets, and twenty kilograms of national grain tickets. I'll give you thirty Ma Leizi."

"Okay, give it to me!"

More than one plate was exchanged sporadically, and then a big customer came. The reason why he was called a big customer was because there was a watch ticket in it.

Unfortunately, there is no universal ticket for watches, because this ticket can be used to buy any watch. The reason why there is no universal ticket is because it is time-sensitive.

This watch ticket is valid for one year, and looking at the date above, more than three months have passed.

My dad has a watch. Although it’s very old, it’s still usable. I can buy one for my mom.

As for himself, it's a joke. A ten-year-old kid wearing a watch, isn't that just an invitation for others to snatch it away?
So he never thought about buying one for himself.

"One watch ticket, ten wine tickets, two packs of Grade A cigarette tickets, one and a half packs of Grade B cigarette tickets, ten kilograms of national grain tickets, and I'll give you two plates of ma leizi."

"Yeah! Give it to me!"

Because there was no White Rabbit milk candy today, the younger children all left.

The power of the Ma Lei Zi was too great, they didn't dare to play with it at all, so they could only leave helplessly.

Li Jiayi had no other options! He still had some candy coupons, but he couldn't even buy a can.

So he didn't think about buying it. After all, it was too little and he couldn't exchange it for anything.

Besides, if you use the money you save for candy to buy Ma Lei Zi, you can exchange it for more things.

Of course, it doesn’t mean that Li Jiayi has lost this market, it’s just temporary.

You have to know that there are not many older children, the majority are younger ones.

"next."

"what!"

It turned out to be another bicycle ticket, but it was not a universal one, but a Phoenix small twenty-six full chain box.

There are only three months left before it expires, so I can buy one for my mom.

My dad has a leg disability, so it’s absolutely no problem for him to ride by himself, but it might not be so easy for him to carry someone else.

If mom and dad each have a car, it will not only be much more convenient for them to commute to get off work, but they can also commute together.

Soon all ten plates of Ma Lei Zi were exchanged for two bicycle tickets and one watch ticket.

There are more than 80 wine tickets, including Chrysanthemum White, Moutai, Lotus White, Dongjiu, Xifeng, Wuliangye, Luzhou Laojiao, Gujing Gongjiu and Baofeng Liquor.

There are thirteen cartons and seven boxes of Class A cigarette tickets, and eighteen and a half cartons of Class B cigarette tickets.

The national food coupons are 233 kilograms.

There is also a ticket for big-headed shoes, but this is not the kind of big-headed shoes sold in later generations.

The big-toed shoes of this era are made entirely of leather, and the fur inside is real fur. When you wear these shoes in the winter, no matter how cold it is, you won’t feel your feet getting cold.

It’s a pity that there is only one, and it’s a version for adult men. It would be nice if there was also a version for women.

In this way, when it snows heavily in winter, my parents won’t feel so cold when they go to work.
