The uncle and niece came to Officer Lin's office.

He handed over all the information to him.

Officer Lin picked up the document and looked at it carefully. Then, he opened Yi Zhonghai's household register. The page belonging to the household register and the page belonging to the auntie were covered with red seals.

Chen Anhe looked at it curiously and found that the seals on it were printed with matches, soap, papyrus, and a few scattered words of " cigarettes, alcohol, and candies have been distributed."

Chen Anhe knew that this was a product of the planned economy era. Matches, towels, soap, cigarettes, and so on, even toilet paper, had to be supplied with tickets.

Moreover, to buy these "extremely precious" daily necessities back then, one had to bring a household register. The ticket, quantity, and household register had to be matched!

Officer Lin flipped open a new page of the permanent residence registration form.

He crossed out the " send " in the parenthesis behind the word " often ".

Then, he began to fill in Chen Anhe's information.

Household Owner or Relationship with Household Owner: Nephew.

[Name: Chen Anhe, gender: Male]

[Date of Birth: February 22, 1944] [Age: 13 December 1958, 14 years old.]

[Birth address: The First Affiliated Hospital of Beijing Medical College (Previously, it was mentioned that she was born in Beijing, but the hospital changed its name in 1958).]

Nation: Han.

After he finished writing, Officer Lin handed the household register back to Yi Zhonghai and said with a smile," Master Yi, congratulations!"

Yi Zhonghai's hands trembled as he took the household register. He looked at the page of information that belonged to Chen Anhe and was so excited that he could not speak.

After a while, Yi Zhonghai calmed down and took out the candy to give to Officer Lin." Thank you, Officer Lin.”

"It's my duty. You're welcome." Officer Lin smiled and took the candy. Then, he said,"By the way, you still have to bring your household register to the grain bureau to change the grain book later.”

"Alright, I got it."

Yi Zhonghai and Chen Anhe bid farewell to Officer Lin and walked out of the street office.

Chen Anhe held the household register in his hand, and he was indescribably excited.

A Beijing household register was not something that could be obtained just because one wanted it, whether it was now or in the future.

In the 16th or 17th year of his previous life, the Worker's Daily had once evaluated the value of a Beijing hukou. Chen Anhe vaguely remembered that the estimated value was 540,000 yuan.

In 2023, when Chen Anhe transmigrated, with the development of Beijing and the introduction of various policies, the value of Beijing's hukou was self-evident.

It should be more than a million.

In other words, the small notebook in Chen Anhe's hands was worth millions.

Chen Anhe could not help but feel heavy.

"Uncle, we'll be a real family from now on.”Chen Anhe said with a smile.

"That's right, we're a family now.”Yi Zhonghai also laughed heartily.

Half an hour later, the two of them arrived at the grain bureau and changed the grain book.

Chen Anhe was 14 years old this year. According to the standard in the north, the average citizen and children above the age of 10 weighed 24 to 28.5 pounds, and the average weight could not exceed 27.5 pounds.

It depends on whether the supply rises or falls each quarter.

After changing the grain capital, Chen Anhe became the master of supply that the rural people envied.

"Since it's still early, let's go to the department store to buy you two sets of clothes.”Yi Zhonghai said as they walked out of the food bureau.

"Uncle, there's no need to spend money. I brought clothes from home.”Chen Anhe waved his hand and said.

"We're a family, so what's the point of spending money? Your clothes are all patched up, so how can you wear them? Moreover, the weather is getting colder and colder.”

"Don't save money for your uncle. I'm rich. My monthly salary and allowance are over 100 yuan.”

Yi Zhonghai waved his hand and made his decision.

Now that Chen Anhe was her child, she had to treat him with the highest standards.

As the boss of Compound No. 95 and a Grade 8 worker in the rolling mill, Chen Anhe would be a joke if he still wore tattered clothes.

At that time, not only would Chen Anhe lose his face, but he would also lose his face. This was not good.

The people of the capital were most particular about their face.

Chen Anhe didn't refuse.

This time was good. If he declined any further, Yi Zhonghai would think that he did not treat him as a family.

The two of them got on the bus and arrived at their destination, the Capital City Department Store, after about half an hour.

When it came to the " Big Brother " of the capital's department store industry, the capital's department store would definitely take up the role.

Just look at the praise the people gave it-" Xin's number one store."

In 1956, the film studio even produced a documentary called Capital Department Store.

During this period, it was the largest store in the capital. It was twice the size of the seven department stores on East Chang 'an Street, Wangfujing Street, and Donghuamen Street combined. It could accommodate tens of thousands of customers and a thousand salespeople at the same time.

On the opening day of the store in 1955, the number of customers reached an astonishing 164,000. After the store closed, two large baskets of shoes were picked up by customers.

It was often a scene in the department store to line up for a purchase. Later, many counters in the mall had no choice but to use steel pipes to build guardrails to prevent the crowded customers from squeezing the counters.

In addition, in order to make shopping more convenient and comfortable, the mall also had a customer lounge, bathroom, fitting room, and ventilation equipment installed on each floor. These were the most basic facilities in the future, but they were rare in this period.

Entering the department store, Chen Anhe was stunned by the dazzling array of goods, the crowded crowd, and the noise.

In his previous life, Chen Anhe had visited many large shopping malls, but it was the first time he had seen such a lively scene.

The most lively place was the clothing department.

Cloth of various colors and patterns were neatly placed in the wardrobe behind the salesperson.

The salesperson held a ruler in one hand and spread out the fabric with the other. After size, she tore it with force and a flat piece of fabric was torn open.

Chen Anhe also saw many customers holding a fan-shaped cardboard in their hands.

There was a drawing of a woman on the cardboard, and the clothes were hollowed out.

The customers held their fans and constantly placed them on various fabrics to choose the fabric they liked.

Even Chen Anhe, who came from the future, felt that this design was very advanced.

If you're interested, you can search for the documentary " Capital Department Store ". It's really an eye-opener. Many of the content in it feels very novel now.
