Starship Girl Express
Chapter 609: Planned Economy
Concubine Ka squeezed from the car door to a window in the middle of the car, because there was her bicycle hanging outside the car. Looking at the heads and street scenes backwards, she felt like she was a human being...
Intercity trams rely on grooved tracks on the road to run with high-voltage power lines. According to my father, trams are only available in large cities, because only large cities have high-voltage power lines and roads where grooved rails can be installed.
When the tram leaves the crowded streets and drove onto the main road, the speed is obviously faster. Ka Fei feels that she can ride a bicycle as fast as she can, but it can't last so long, and she never stops and waits at the intersection. All the way to rush forward, the speed is extremely fast.
When I was in elementary school, Ca Fei and Ness were there. One of their favorite games was to run to the main road and watch the traffic on the road with the high barriers. At that time, she noticed that the uncle traffic policeman standing on the traffic control platform at the crossroads, seeing the tram coming from a distance, would stop the left and right cars in advance and let the tram pass first, without stopping and waiting.
It wasn’t until the junior high school that the military course was upgraded, and after understanding the concepts of traffic, vehicles, and roads, Ca Fei began to feel that the traffic police specifically asked the tram to go first. Is it too eccentric? My father’s explanation was that the tram started and stopped. It's very difficult, and there are people in the car, it's dangerous to start and stop.
Cafe thinks it makes sense.
Later, there was a science and technology class. When the teacher taught electromagnetics in the class, when it came to trams, they talked about frequent start and stop of trams. The energy consumption was too large. Due to the shortage of electricity, trams would not stop casually after they were on the road. Up.
Concubine Carrie felt that it made sense, so she decided to go back to the tram to experience her feelings... But so far, she has taken the tram twice, including one two or three weeks ago.
When I was a child, I didn’t have any impression on the tram. Now I feel that it is really fast, almost unbelievable, but it is too bumpy and too awkward. I didn’t see anyone getting on the bus on the rest day, but the people on the bus were already crowded. It’s, squeezed around, it’s impossible to stand firm by grasping everywhere, no wonder the conductor aunt will come all the way yelling "Foot care, care good".
Passengers who have bought tickets hold all the tickets in their hands. When the conductor comes over, it is convenient for the other party to check it. Concubine Ka is going to the terminal on the edge of the city, so she paid for a full ticket... She always felt that the tram conductor The aunt is very handsome and can yell at people. Everyone has to pay her. Whoever wants to make way out must give her way, and follow her instructions to get on and off the bus.
Ness once said that she wanted to be a conductor, but then asked her again, she actually said that she had forgotten...
Concubine Cay listened to the conductor yelling at the station, and made sure that she was not sitting in the opposite direction... After two or three stops, the person sitting at the window got off the bus and Concubine quickly stepped to occupy the seat.
I don’t know why, it seems that everyone thinks that sitting is better than standing. It’s better to sit in a position than to stand, so everyone keeps an eye on the seat. Once they are free, everyone will rush to rush into it...
The last time I rushed to the first tram in the morning, Ca Fei had no experience. As a result, the seat in front of her nose was seized twice by the person behind her by a staggering step, which made Ca Fei depressed for a long time.This time she has experience. When grabbing the armrest of the back of the seat in advance, she was like an old hen guarding the baby. She stood concealed to cover all the gaps. She could sit on it as soon as the person sitting in front of her left.
Concubine Ka is going to sit to the terminal station, so she is not at all impatient, and the bicycle is outside this carriage, she sits firmly on the Diaoyutai, leaving places left and right next to each other, all unmoved, the passengers around seem to feel the little girl The determination to stand firmly, no longer crowded around this seat, and began to focus on other seats...
After sitting down, Concubine Cahas to follow the example, put one hand out of the car window and hold it on the bike. Although the car will not be lost, Concubine Ca, like everyone else, still touches her car. Peace of mind.
With the tram ride, Concubine Ca feels much faster. On her birthday, she set off at 4 o’clock and took almost 2 hours to ride to the temple. Of course, there are reasons for getting lost in the dark. Now it’s a blink of an eye to take the tram. On the outskirts of the city, behind you are the urban concrete buildings, you can see a field in front of you, and in the distance there are mounds and terraces, and a hill full of trees is particularly conspicuous.
Check that everything in the schoolbag is not leaking, put it up in the basket, and Cafee got on the bicycle and started to march towards the temple in the 12th district... People with bicycles usually let the children learn to ride in elementary school. On the rest days, I will also lend a car to neighbors and relatives to learn to drive.
Concubine Ka is very unfortunate and very happy. She has a child at home, so she has a long time to learn to drive, and she often rides in the park.Although there was a crash and a terrible fall, I was afraid of bicycles for the entire junior high school two years, but since I am an adult, I should overcome these difficulties.
Hu He He He pushed the bicycle up. Now it’s not as deserted as on the birthday. The mountain roads along the way are full of people. People from Qili and Baxiang gathered here. There is no such thing as a “holiday” in the city. It is said that in addition to taking care of their own farmland throughout the year, farmers take a rest whenever they want to rest, except during busy farming seasons. They can come to the temple to worship at any time, and there will be a lot of people from the village gathering on the rest days. In fact, it is because of the city. "Holidays"——
In addition to parks, libraries, and civic workers' activity centers, city dwellers are fun places in the city. The vast wilderness surrounding the city, rivers, lakes, and temples in the countryside are all good places to go fishing.
The temple in the 12th district is close to the city. The main building has a long history. It has much more foundation than the newly built temple in the city. You can see the ancient internal wooden beam structure of Budaicha, which is like Budaicha in the city. Especially all reinforced concrete.In addition, there are tram lines going out of the city halfway, which is an ideal place for citizens to have higher religious needs during holidays.
Thousands of people from the city came in, and the villagers naturally swarmed in. They naturally did not come for religious activities, but set up stalls along the mountain road, from the concrete road towards the city at the foot of the mountain, all the way to the temple. At the gate, various offerings, worship materials, as well as tea, fruits, snacks, staple food, and meals are sold.
People in the city can buy it with money, or use some belongings. Barter, the most popular items among villagers are salt, sewing kits, children’s toys, old books, and cooling oil. If you can get them Take out the pen and exchange the clothes on your body. You may need four or five people to help you move the various things the villagers gave you.
Concubine Kay strolled up all the way, lively on both sides, and the last time I was alone in the early morning climbing. The hospitable villagers sometimes have too much tea and food, and when they are too lazy to carry back down the mountain, they will be casual. Entertaining the people in the past—they looked at the little girl’s house in Kafei’s house, a person in a formal dress was very religious, and the stroller looked very hard, so many people held water bowls for Kafei to drink and gave The sweet fruits from the mountains are stuffed into her cart.
She was very happy at first, but when the presents were piled up, she became embarrassed, but she refused. Although she thought that she had prepared a pinch of salt to taste for lunch, the portion was too small. Wouldn't it be insulting?And I'm not very wealthy. The pinch of salt I prepared for this picnic was saved a little bit by cooking these days... and in order to buy train tickets, this season's pocket money has been spent.
So she could only take three courtesies all the way up the mountain...
There were full bicycles parked under the wall of the temple. Looking at it, every tree was locked in a circle, and the car went around two steps. Finally, Ca Fei pushed the bicycle out of the temple and locked the bicycle on the trees outside the courtyard... …The trees near the gate were already full. She could only lock the car a little deeper, and then leave most of the gifts in the car basket, put her schoolbag on her back, put down her dress, and walked into the temple.
On this day, apart from following everyone in the pilgrimage until the sunset came out, she naturally had no gain. After going to the tomb to follow everyone and stroking the tall tree to pray, she could only go home.
On the returning tram, I thought about it for a while and thought about it. With so many people present, it is normal for the gods not to show up. It seems that I have to find a time to avoid the crowd in the future.
This experience has given Ka Fei a lot of experience, and the Chinese composition has a lot of materials, which is also a good thing.Except that the gods do not show miracles when there are many people, the temple toilets are really bad. There are a row of slates and a pack of bricks on the edge of the cliff. They are smelly, there are more people and mosquitoes, and they are dirty, but everyone uses them. So, Kafei didn't care too much about cleanliness, but decided not to eat too much on the mountain in the future, and she must be there when there are few people, otherwise the queue will be really a torture and it will kill people!
On the 11th of the 7th week, I was busy all day and returned without success.Although generally speaking, I have had a good time, but the operating funds have also been used up, enough to rent a quarter book, buy small snacks...The main expenses, except for half of the two trips, the other half is in the mall. I bought the same small packet of white sugar as last time and gave it to the big brother opposite as a thank you gift for borrowing the car.
After taking two packs of white sugar, the big brother on the opposite side was really embarrassed. The main food, clothing, and fuel are planned to be distributed. In addition to currency, he must also hold various "vouchers" issued by the unit to purchase. Therefore, the main living materials The price is very low, it's like a free gift, you can't buy it anyway with money.
As for other by-products and secondary processed goods, such as decorations, paints, non-staple foods, etc., white sugar is the representative. The country has no supply arrangements. As long as they have money, they can buy them, but the price is naturally sky-high and sold in milligrams. , And often there is a price but no market, or you can’t buy it with money.
Although the eldest brother was very sad, he still accepted two packs of white sugar. He bluntly said that he needed white sugar to make sugar cakes for his girlfriend. At the same time, he said that he could borrow the bicycle to Concubine next week. .
However, Concubine Ka did not borrow again immediately, saying that she would talk about it in a few weeks, because she needs to go to work first to raise funds for the next operation.
Each semester history class, the first unit of each new history class, is a summary of the historical changes of the motherland Mwasaya. This content of about 20 pages or more is about how the people lived happily in the past. Now the enemy is innocent. It triggered a war and brought misery to all nations in the world.
And of course, the summaries are repeated, and the new content is in the last section of the unit.The content is repetitive, but because the number of pages remains the same, the language will be more profound and realistic each time to compress the number of words and fill in new content.
The second half of elementary school has national politics content. From junior high school there is a lot of geographical content, telling about the frontiers in Mwasaya history, and the alliance and geopolitics in the war years. Now in the first semester of high school, I start to talk about economic development. Up.
It is said that in the past, everyone can buy anything they want with money. Everyone usually wears brightly colored clothes, exquisite meat steaks, and fruit candies, instead of the ones that are worn at festivals.
Ka Fei finds it incredible. It's not that it's amazing that everything can be bought, but it's amazing that there are "fruit candies"-aren't fruits and candies two things?Can it be put together?When put together, it becomes something in the picture in the textbook?Tasty?Looks so sweet!
Concubine Ka was born and lived in the "planned economy" society mentioned in the textbook. Firewood, coal, rice, meat, vegetable, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea cloth silk thread are the most basic planning materials, and they cannot be purchased without various planning tickets, because these things They are all strategic materials.
In the military class instructors, when explaining the material and logistics supply chapters, they often said that the country is now in a state of military priority. The rice, vegetables, fabrics, etc. produced by Cadellacia cannot be used by farmers and workers themselves. It must first be handed over to rural communes, construction groups, and labor unions, and then the government will distribute them through tickets. Commodities, people, tickets, and currencies are exchanged in the social market composed of supply and marketing cooperatives.
After understanding the economic relationship, for the first time in her life, Cafe became angry with the enemy.Looking back on her short life, when she was just sensible, she was habitual and hated the enemy along with everyone. The concept of right and wrong was imprinted with the social environment of the times.
Later, I grew up and learned to think independently. After that incident, out of the most instinctive hatred of being killed, the hatred of the enemy began to be unforgettable.
But now, a lot of reading, coupled with the knowledge of the political economy system that I have been exposed to since the beginning of high school, can be more rational, from a different social angle, and even more serious. The cognition generated by my own thinking has identified the enemy as Damn it, it is concluded that the existence of the enemy is the root of the widespread suffering of the people——
Not only Kafei and her family, but thousands of ordinary families have similar painful experiences, and also suffer from the lack of supplies and so on.
