Chapter 75: The 55th Edition of Food Stamps is Too Rough

Chapter 75: The 55th Edition of Food Stamps is Too Rough
There is a large storage area to the south of Shilou Village.

Before the reform and opening up, there were large tracts of farmland here. Later, with urbanization and industrialization, the farmland gradually turned into factories.

Later, the "empty cage, replace bird" policy was introduced, and a large number of factories moved out. This place became a storage area and can also be rented out as office space.

There are actually quite a few small workshops in a warehouse area. This time, Lin Sanqi came to one of the printing factories, whose owner is Lin Qinming.

Lin Qinming is the ninth child in the clan. He didn't like studying and only loved fighting.

There are so many property security guards in Shilou Village and so many managers in the storage area, they can become combat power at critical moments.

Like the little trouble Lin Sanqi encountered in the grain and oil wholesale market a few days ago, when Yin Lianyi was in danger, a group of security guards rushed over and beat her.

Security guards can be from the village or hired from outside. The only requirement is fighting ability, but loyalty will be discounted.

But the "security team" in the village can only be staffed by the clan members. These people belong to the "Jinyiwei" and are the core who do the dirty work.

After all, it is a society ruled by law, and the right path in the world is full of vicissitudes.

Lin Qinming had just finished dinner and was drinking tea and watching a variety show when there was a knock on the door.

"Which one?"

"It's me, Sanqi."

"Hey, Qizi, you are a rare guest, why did you suddenly come to Brother Jiu's place?"

As soon as Lin Sanqi entered the house, he turned on the electric fan. Air conditioning and electric fans are a perfect match. He said:
"Brother Ming, I came here this time to ask you for a small favor."

While pouring water, Lin Qinming said casually:
"Hey, you want my help? How can I help? Do you want me to help you kill that supervising doctor? I'm good at this, Brother Jiu!"

Lin Sanqi was a little embarrassed: "It's not about that, Brother Jiu, I want you to help me print some things."

Lin Qinming chuckled, "What are you printing? I'm an expert on this. Is it Luo Zhao, the teacher who taught you, or black material? Bring it here, and I'll help you start the work overnight, and then find people to spread it all over the city in the middle of the night."

Lin Sanqi was sweating and quickly waved his hands: "I just want you to help me get some food coupons."

"Food stamps?"

Lin Qinming was a little confused:

"Food stamps are sold online, and they are not worth much. After all, they are a niche collection. Besides, people are not stupid. They can tell the difference between printed food stamps and authentic food stamps at a glance. Those professional collectors are as smart as monkeys. You can't fool them."

After Lin Qinming finished speaking, he typed into the computer and then pointed at the food coupons on the screen that were very similar to those printed on the RMB.

“You see, if you search online, you will find people selling food coupons. However, these food coupons are obviously fake at a glance. Almost all of them are printed in modern times, so the prices are so cheap.

These are real food stamps, wrinkled, and worth collecting, but they are expensive. Just like the old version of RMB, the second and third editions of RMB are very expensive. Look at this second edition of RMB, Big Black Ten, 40 points rated banknote, transaction price: 34.13 yuan; and this, National Unity Yellow 5 Yuan Five Star Watermark, 67 points rated banknote, transaction price: 1.1 yuan.

If you want to buy food stamps, the price of one of the 66 edition ranges from several hundred to several thousand yuan. The key is that you cannot guarantee that what someone sends you is the real thing.

So you must keep your eyes open and don’t be tempted by cheap goods online. This business is too complicated, even I can’t handle it. You are still young, so learn for a few more years. "

Lin Qinming thought that after Lin Sanqi was expelled from school, he had a crazy idea of ​​doing antique business, so he secretly tried to dissuade him.

Lin Sanqi quickly explained:

"Brother Ming, don't worry. I'm not going to do the food stamp business, so I don't need such beautifully printed food stamps. These are versions from the 1960s and 1970s. What I want is a version from the 1950s, like this."

After Lin Sanqi finished speaking, he took out the food coupons he had brought with him in 1959 and placed them on the table.

This is the 1955 edition of the food stamp. It is printed in a single color, with different colors for different weights. There are no complicated patterns or anti-counterfeiting marks.

(Like the RMB, there are different versions of food stamps in different periods)
Lin Qinming picked up a piece of paper and looked at it, then felt the paper with his fingers and said indifferently:
"Hey, I thought it was some kind of delicate work, but it's just a food stamp. Your skills are too poor. I can draw it exactly the same by hand."

Lin Sanqi thought, this is the manual printing technology of 1955, of course it’s not good.

But in 1955, all printing presses were in public hands, and it would have been difficult for private individuals to forge documents.

Historically, anti-counterfeiting marks did not appear until the 1966 version of food stamps. The reason for this was because "fake food stamps" appeared on the market at that time.

Why were there no fake food coupons in the 1950s?
It's not that there were no food stamps, but the printing technology of food stamps in the 1950s was probably too low, making it difficult for ordinary staff to identify them.

However, due to the small number, it did not become a social nuisance, nor did it disrupt the grain market, nor did it attract the attention of restaurants and grain stores.

It is better not to pay attention to it. Only by not paying attention to it can there be opportunities to take advantage of it, and then opportunists like Lin Sanqi can find loopholes.

"Brother Jiu, I need these food coupons. Can you help me get a batch? I won't ask where they come from."

If it were any other elder, he would definitely scold me. How could he have such evil thoughts?

But Lin Qinming thinks differently from others. He wants to save face, so of course he has to do well what his cousin asks him to do.

"Sprinkle some water. Since you've come to Brother Jiu for help, Brother Jiu will definitely help you get it. The only difficulty with food coupons like this is the paper string. I don't have this kind of rough paper, but my friend has some in stock."

After saying that, Lin Qinming made a phone call, and soon a middle-aged bald man came over.

"Qizai, this is Brother Cheng, who is well-known in Tianhe District. You can go to him for your food coupons."

Cheng seemed to be very familiar with Lin Qinming, and sat down on the chair without any hesitation:
"What kind of paper does this little brother want? It would be best if I could give you a sample. I'll take care of the rest."
