Don't underestimate five yuan. The cost of making a bed was extremely low. It could be said that Lin Feng had given him a lot. Five yuan was enough for a person's monthly rations.
This was very precious to families in need, especially in this year of great disaster. This was life-saving money!
The streets were busy every day trying to make people survive. Many refugees came to Beijing just for food. People like Lin Feng and He Yuzhu could support their families by working alone.
If there were two workers in the family, then they were definitely rich. Lin Feng had more than 40 catties of grain every month, including coarse grain, fine grain, and other supplies. There was even a catty of meat coupons.
It was now widely acknowledged that fat pork was the best. According to science, what people lacked now was carbon, fat, and sugar.
Therefore, he would always be hungry. However, if he ate less and ate more, just the coarse grains and vegetables were enough to ensure his satiety. Moreover, he did not lack nutrition and was healthy!
Lin Feng then bid farewell and left with He Yushui. The two of them each rode a bicycle." Brother Lin Feng, where are we going now?”
"Let's go eat, then go to Liulichang in the afternoon!”Lin Feng wanted to collect antiques, but he didn't know much about them. However, he wanted to see what he could use for trading.
He was prepared to use food to exchange for it, but he did not understand. He only hoped that when he signed in, he would have a skill like appraisal, and then use food that could not be taken out openly to exchange for it.
This was definitely a guaranteed profit, and he could keep his money as much as possible. In order to accumulate capital in the future, he couldn't work as a turner for his entire life!
"Good!" He Yushui was very happy. She was extremely excited to be able to enjoy a rest day with Lin Feng.
The two young men and women each had a bicycle. In the eyes of the pedestrians, they were the focus of attention.
In the 1980s, bicycles were nothing. That was the explosive period of bicycles. They were everywhere, especially in big cities.
In the 1960s, when you rode a bicycle, you were the prettiest kid on the street.
The two of them ate a bowl of Zhajiang noodles for lunch. This was already considered a luxury. Now that food was too scarce, most people were reluctant to eat a bowl of Zhajiang noodles.
The two of them then went to Liulichang, which was located in the west of Sijiu City. It was quite lively when they went in. After all, it was a Sunday, and there were fewer entertainment activities. It was a good place.
However, when the wind blew, this could not happen again. Of course, it was still too early to think about this now. There were still several years to go!
Fakes existed in every dynasty. Although ancient imitations were also antiques and their value was not low, Lin Feng did not want to expose it. After all, he would come here often in the future. If he did not know anything now, it would easily arouse suspicion in the future.
He came today mainly to see what the people here mainly used to trade, money or food.
This was very important. After all, he had food. Although it wasn't much now, he would get some every day. He would get more every week.
If it could be traded with food, what would the price be?
He still needed to understand this in depth. Otherwise, wouldn't he be a sucker?
There was no need to enter the shop. The shop was now a joint public-private partnership, and there were no stalls outside. They were either standing or squatting. After all, private transactions were not allowed now. If you wanted to sell antiques, you had to go to a commission shop.
For example, Pigeon City had suffered a serious blow, but it did not happen here. It still formed a market, but it could not be too obvious. Lin Feng saw many people talking in groups of two or three.
Then, they held each other's hands, which meant that the two of them used their hands to bargain. Usually, they used their sleeves to cover it, so others couldn't see it. From afar, it looked like they were shaking hands.
Some of the transactions were done on the spot. The items were packed in cloth bags or baskets. This was considered bartering. It was allowed by the law and was not considered individual business. Now, there was no crime of speculation. That only appeared after the reform.
Antiques weren't part of the planned economy, so they didn't destroy the planned economy. However, if they were bought with money, they couldn't be traded on the spot. Usually, they would have to change their location. However, in this case, they had to be more careful.
Lin Feng brought He Shuiyu for a walk. He basically understood that antique trading was not a big deal during this period. It was mostly because some families could not afford it and took out things to exchange for food.
As for those who had rich food and knew about antiques, their identities were not ordinary.
After strolling for more than an hour, Lin Feng finally left with He Yushui." Brother Lin Feng, why aren't you going into the shop?”
Lin Feng smiled." We're not buying anything. Why are we going in?"”
He didn't tell He Yushui the truth. This girl still had too little social experience. Moreover, she had to work in the street office, so there were some things that he couldn't tell her.
When she arrived at Da Qianmen and worked for a year and a half, she would probably have a lot more social experience.
……
By the time the two of them returned home, He Yuzhu had already returned. Yu Li had also returned with him. It seemed that it had worked. The two of them were standing at the door of He Yuzhu's room, leaning closer together and whispering something.
" Brother..." He Yushui called out, then pushed her bicycle and jogged over." Brother, can I call you sister-in-law now?"”
" Haha…" He Yuzhu smiled." Of course, you can change your mind now!”
Yu Li's face turned red. She gently hit He Yuzhu's shoulder." Rainwater, you still have to wait!"”
"You can change your mind after you get the certificate!"
"Haha…Alright, I'll wait a few more days. I'll call you Sister Yu Li first!”He Yushui was happy. Her brother was finally getting married.
At this moment, Lin Feng also pushed his cart over.
"Congratulations!" Lin Feng said.
"I still have to thank you!" He Yuzhu said," Yu Li came to see the house today. Oh right…Lin Feng, take a look at my house. I'm also preparing to make two partition walls!"”
Lin Feng took a look." It's almost the same, but you can't use a fire brick bed here. It's best to open two more ventilation windows. When the time comes, you can use a coal stove. It's best to use honeycomb briquettes!”
"With the partition, the individual rooms are much smaller. It can guarantee a certain temperature and it won't be too cold in winter!”
"Hmm, that makes sense!" He Yuzhu nodded." I'll tell them later. It's a pity. It would be great if there was another penthouse!”
