I have a fiancée in Siheyuan

Chapter 6 Street Office

It's still early. When the two of them went out, it was just past 7 o'clock. When they arrived at the street office, the security guard told them that they hadn't started work yet and should come back in half an hour.

Bai Baoshan took Qiao Yun to the breakfast stall.

Steamed buns, fried dough sticks, fried dough rings, mixed soups, fried liver, bean juice, tofu pudding, and soy milk.

It's almost the same as modern breakfast stalls.

The key is to stimulate consumption and to allow people to have something to eat. The regulations have been in place since the beginning of the 60s.

After April 1960, the catering industry (Chinese and Western restaurants, small restaurants, dim sum shops, snack bars, and breakfast shops) adopted two sales methods: either accepting grain coupons or not accepting grain coupons. At the same time, a few high-end restaurants were retained that did not accept grain coupons, and all of them sold products at high prices.

Use this method to recover money.

The main reason is that people are afraid of being poor and would rather save their money than spend it. Some people have money but no tickets, so they can't spend it even if they want to.

But if the food is better, the price of bicycles will be amazing. A bicycle is now sold for 480 yuan. From the end of 61 to the first half of 62, the price will soar to a terrifying price of 650 yuan.

Think about it, you only earn 40 yuan a month, which is exactly 480 yuan in a year without eating or drinking.

But don't underestimate the capital, even here the demand still exceeds supply.

Bai Baoshan could only sigh that the capital city was indeed the best place to live and there were so many rich people.

A meat bun does not require a ticket, and each person is limited to one. The same applies to vegetable buns and fried dough sticks.

However, a meat bun is 3 cents, a vegetable bun is 2 cents, a fried dough stick is 2 cents, and soy milk is 5 cents.

Qiao Yun pinched her pocket and looked at Bai Baoshan, looking like a miserly little money-grubber.

Bai Baoshan knew that the price was too high.

But there are not many tickets.

If you have a ticket, a bowl of 1 taels of meat noodles costs only 4 cents.

Youtiao, which required a ticket, cost 4 cents, and a large meat bun cost 1 cents, but who knew there were no extra food coupons in those days?

"Comrade, one vegetable bun, one meat bun, two fried dough sticks, and two cups of soy milk, thank you."

"Serving the people, no need to thank me, comrade, please give me 1 yuan."

The salesperson didn't even look up and continued doing his own thing.

Bai Baoshan looked at Qiao Yun, and the little girl wrinkled her nose. Finally, under Bai Baoshan's gaze, the money-grubber finally pouted, took out a dollar from her small pocket and gave it to Bai Baoshan.

Bai Baoshan shook his head. This little housekeeper would definitely make her count her losing money until her hands cramped.

He took the money and handed it to the salesperson.

It was as if this person had eyes on his forehead. He took it without even raising his head.

A reed plate and two bowls of soy milk were placed in front of Bai Baoshan in less than 3 seconds.

Is this... so fast?

"Comrade, mani, go on."

"Oh... I'm sorry comrade. I was stunned for a moment when I saw your skillful movements."

"It's nothing. If you work at this job for three to five years, you can make progress just as fast." The young man smiled and said nonchalantly.

He handed the straw plate to Qiao Yun and took the two bowls to the side.

Fortunately, there were fewer people at this time. If there were a lot of people, and you wasted time like this, not only would the salesperson dare to scold you, but the person behind you might also beat you up, and the salesperson might even come out and kick you a few times.

Don’t think that people will be polite to you just because they don’t hang that sign in their store. That’s just how they keep a low profile.

The meat buns and a fried dough stick were given to Qiao Yun.

Bai Baoshan knew that Qiao Yun should be feeling better in his stomach, and she should be able to handle the meat buns and fried dough sticks.

But I, who had just recovered from a serious illness, certainly could not bear it. A vegetable bun and a fried dough stick were my limit.

Under Bai Baoshan's dominance, Qiao Yun still took the buns and ate them in small bites, very quietly. If Bai Baoshan had not lived with the father and son for two years, he would have thought that this family was a famous family and Qiao Yun was a lady from a noble family.

It can be seen that the little girl is very hungry, but she still eats slowly and does not wolf down the food.

Bai Baoshan is different. Compared with Qiao Yun, the two are extreme opposites.

In three bites, two fist-sized vegetable buns went into his stomach. In another three bites, the fried dough sticks were gone. After four bites, only the bottom of the bowl of soy milk was left. Then he tilted his head back and finished it all. It took less than a minute.

If the salesman is an expert in serving meals, Bai Baoshan is also an expert in eating meals.

Qiao Yun had just eaten half of her bun.

Qiao Yun felt a little embarrassed. Bai Baoshan saw it and told her to eat slowly, saying it was still early and he should think about things carefully.

After saying this, he stopped looking at Qiao Yun and lowered his head to think.

Sort out what needs to be done.

Go through the transfer procedures first, and then do the rest.

Although the two houses are back houses, they were bought by the old man with his hard-earned money.

There is a property certificate, this is a real private property.

She changed her own name, and the head of the household was changed to Feng Qiaoyun, and the house was still hers, regardless of whether she was marrying into the family or not.

Anyway, the other person saved me, so my life belongs to the old man and also to Qiao Yun.

As long as she doesn't let me down, I will definitely not let Qiao Yun down.

It took about 20 minutes. When I looked up, Qiao Yun had finished eating and was wiping her mouth with a handkerchief.

Seeing Bai Baoshan looking at her, Qiao Yun blushed again.

"Brother, I'm done eating."

"Well, let's go. It looks like the street office is open for work."

You can see the gate of the street office here, and at this time there are many people coming in and out.

Bai Baoshan pulled Qiao Yun, guessing that this girl only knew where the street office was, and this was probably her first time entering this place.

Bai Baoshan took out the only cigarette that could be shown off this year, Hongtashan Soft Box 1956. The packaging has not changed for decades, a classic among classics.

It's not that this cigarette is cheap and bad, because many leaders don't smoke cigarettes like Emperor or Supreme, they only smoke this.

The dozens of boxes in the warehouse were exchanged for various meats from the Hongtashan Tobacco Factory in the name of support.

Smoker's Summoning Technique; Hongtashan Classics 1956

He took out a cigarette and handed it to the old man at the door. "Uncle, my sister and I have never been to the street office. Can I ask you something?"

"Oh, this is a good cigarette. I have never smoked a cigarette with a filter. You say, kid, I am not familiar with other places, but I can tell where this street office is with my eyes closed."

"Hey, how can I say that I have found the right person?

Uncle, this is the case. My grandfather passed away and left behind a house. I want to inherit the house. I also need to change the household registration, the grain registration and the non-staple food registration. All of this needs to be done at the street office. Who do you think we should contact?"

"Hey, for this matter, go to the central courtyard after entering the gate. There is the housing administration office up there. It handles all housing matters. Household registration matters are on the left side of the central courtyard.

Grain certificates and the like are located in a house next to the household registration office. They handle the supply and demand of grain for the city’s population and various certificates.

If you don’t understand, just go in and ask someone.”

"Thank you, sir. Your advice has saved me a lot of trouble."

"Haha, it's my duty. Being a concierge is just the beginning. Come in quickly. If there are too many people, you will have to wait. It's better to go in now while there are fewer people."

"Thank you, sir. By the way, may I ask you one more question, which office is the director of the subdistrict office in?"

"The director is in the backyard. If you need help from the director, come in the afternoon. In the morning, the director is usually processing yesterday's files."

"Thank you. I'm not looking for the director. I've never been here before. I'm just asking casually."

"Haha... go in, go in." The old man was intoxicated by the smell of cigarettes and waved his hand casually at Bai Baoshan.

Bai Baoshan took Qiao Yun's hand and walked into the legendary street office.

This is also a three-entry courtyard, but the back house behind the front door has been demolished and a new gate has been rebuilt.

When they walked in, they saw that the front yard was for marriages. There was a sign on it that said "Marriage Registration Office". When the little girl saw this, her face blushed.

On the other side it says the All-China Women's Federation Beijing Nanluoguxiang District Office, which is the legendary Women's Federation.

Some doors don't have names on them.

The two walked in and arrived at the middle courtyard.

There are two trees in the yard, one is a jujube tree, don't worry, the other one is not a jujube tree, but a pomegranate tree.

There are many fruits hanging on it, obviously it is a bumper year.

Sure enough, while the poor in other places have to eat tree bark, the street office is still peaceful.

Following the old man's instructions, I looked at the sign above the house in the middle courtyard.

I went to the household registration office first, but the owner of the household refused to handle it, so the house could not be transferred.

However, Bai Baoshan had a little idea that he did not tell Qiao Yun.

Let’s talk about it after completing the household registration.
