The students lined up to exchange locust flowers for spicy slices.

Wang Yi was stunned.

Are there so many people?

Both spicy strips and spicy slices have entry barriers, and the taste is numb and spicy. It is a delicacy for people who like heavy tastes. If you like light, you will have no interest.

He originally thought that this thing was just something some male students would like, such as Wang Zhuangyuan and Wang Kai, but he didn't expect that even the little girls would like it.

After all, this thing has just appeared, and students should have an acceptance process. You can’t get addicted to something with such a strong stimulation by eating it in the first bite, right?

However, this is the case. Students like it. They want to have a second bite after taking a bite, and they want to have a second bite after taking a piece!

Wang Yi can only guess that this is still a problem of the times. When he was a child, he didn't like spicy slices and spicy strips, and he was too heavy-mouthed.

But the children in 1982 have no snacks? If they don’t come, the snacks that children can eat are dried fish and sweet potatoes at home. Otherwise, they will be happy to pick some red, dates and persimmons on the mountain in autumn.

In comparison, spicy slices and spicy strips are definitely delicious food, not to mention that this thing tastes really good and has a chewy texture. How can students not like it?

And even if it tastes too heavy, numb and spicy, what's wrong? Some of the light tastes really can't be eaten in one breath. This is better, so they take them home for a meal!

A large pack of spicy slices was divided first, and the rest were spicy strips. Spicy strips were not as popular as spicy slices because they were less oily and had little fame. However, when the spicy slices were gone, they were just as enthusiastic about spicy strips!

Suddenly, when the Shanghai wind blows on the top of the mountain, the stimulating smell of spicy strips. The students gathered together to eat together, and the sound of pussy accentuating and hissing and sucking in the cold air was endless.

The white swan returned from fear was so scared that he didn't dare to fall down, and kept hovering in the air with a fish in his mouth.

This even attracted adults and women who were working came to ask: "Teacher Wang, what are the spicy slices and spicy strips you have here?"

Wang Xianghong also came, wearing a coat and holding a cigarette pole in his mouth and said, "It tastes very good, it's very spicy."

Wang Yi had a few spicy strips left, and he distributed them to Wang Xianghong and the female member.

Wang Xianghong didn't want it, Wang Yi said: "Each one cent, branch secretary, please eat it. I'll ask Xiufang's sister-in-law for it."

This is really not expensive.

The arrival of Feng Ya took out a first edition of RMB from her pocket and said, "Teacher Wang collects old money here. Look, I found it at home, and I will find you to exchange it."

When Wang Yi saw that it was Wu Yuan's weaving coupon, it was the least valuable in the first edition of RMB, but one can be sold for several hundred yuan, so he gave one yuan.

Because the first version of RMB is no longer exchanged, and the wind in the collection of RMB has not blown to the outer island, it is useless for the people on the island, no matter how large the face value of the currency is, it is useless, it is waste paper.

In this way, Wang Yi exchanged the same way as a unified one yuan for one. He exchanged one yuan for one yuan regardless of the denomination, and Wu Baiyuan also exchanged one yuan for another.

In fact, there are not many RMB on the island, and there are even fewer large-scale votes. Except for the captain and Huang Xiaohua's family, he has never seen a currency value of more than Wu Shiyuan.

The people on the outer island have been poor all the time!

But the members on the island have relatives, and relatives also have relatives. Wang Yi launched the campaign based on them and asked them to collect the first version of RMB for him.

Feng Ya took a spicy strip and put it in her mouth carefully, saying, "Teacher Wang, please find money. The branch secretary is mine, I'll treat you."

"Just ask for the branch secretary." Aunt Qing and others laughed and laughed.

Feng Ya waved her hand, "Please, I'll get some cents!"

Wang Xianghong waved his hand calmly: "No, let you say that, how many dollars can I have to go out, as a big man, not have to spend on my body? At least I can squeeze my pockets."

He took out a roll of money from his pocket, picked it up and took out a dime for Wang Yi: "Teacher Wang doesn't need to find it anymore, let's settle the remaining ones."

Feng Ya asked: "Brand Secretary, what is a small account?"

"Tip, reward, used to be called reward." Wang Xianghong bit the spicy strips and explained, "We have no such customs in our socialist countries, but I heard from the radio that there are still hehe, Teacher Wang, where did you buy this spicy strip? It tastes quite interesting!"

Feng Ya nodded in agreement: "The taste is so good, it can't be said to be spicy, right?"

"It's a little sweet, I must have some sugar added." Aunt Qing said.

Wang Yi said: "There is no sugar added, but the bean peel itself is a bit sweet. The branch secretary is not the goods I bought, I made it myself!"

Wang Xianghong smiled and said, "Besides you can also make this with cold dishes? How do you make this bean peel?"

Wang Yi said: "I didn't make bean peels and bean gluten, but I mixed the seasonings. Don't you feel that they are very similar to the cold dishes you eat in the morning?"

Wang Xianghong nodded: "Like, I said the taste is so familiar."

For fishermen, the spicy taste is similar, and the taste of different seafood is different.

Wang Yi introduced: "The bean peel and bean tendon were bought by comrades from the food factory in Chengli. In fact, these are not bean peel and bean tendons. There are very few in Wengzhou. This is called artificial meat!"

"I bought artificial meat and seasoned myself. I found the flavor inspired by the spicy dried tomatoes that people in southern Hunan liked. What do you think is the unique flavor of cumin. There are not many cumin seasonings outside the island, but many of them are in the northwest and southwest.”

"Yes, it's cumin flavor." Wang Xianghong nodded, "I have eaten it in the army before. The comrades in the northwest who can eat spicy food also like to eat this cumin. They use cumin to stir-fry potatoes. Haha, they eat it so delicious."

Wang Yi found him four cents, and he waved his hand: "I told you to be a small account."

Feng Ya smiled and said, "Brand Secretary, our socialist country does not make small accounts, who was the last cadre to give small accounts?"

"Tang Lanying in 1977? She gave her a tip for 50 yuan when she went to shave her head, which scared the barber." said a sister-in-law named Zhang Huihong.

The young woman next to her nodded: "Yes, Tang Lanying did this. I just married into our Tianya Island that year. Remember clearly that the radio said that Tang Lanying, a female accountant of Rudongtang Credit Union, was executed on the charge of corruption and thieves."

Aunt Qing said, "I remember this, isn't there a rumor in society? She said that she was soaked in Longjing tea, her cat's beard and mouth was upturned, and she was so happy to eat, drink and have fun. Finally, she was sleeping with her."

Wang Xianghong said angrily: "What are you talking about? Why did you compare me with Tang Lanying?"

Several women looked at each other and ran away with a bang.

That's right, how did this joke compare the branch secretary to Tang Lanying as a corrupt thief? Isn't this asking for criticism?

Wang Xianghong doesn't like such jokes, but she won't exaggerate it because of this.

When the women left him, they concentrated on eating spicy strips: "Not to say, Teacher Wang, you really know how to adjust the taste, this thing is pretty good."

"Artificial meat, haha, there is nothing in society now."

Wang Yi smiled and said, "The spicy strips should be good to drink."

He took a cup and made a small amount of wine and handed it to Wang Xianghong.

Wang Xianghong waved his hand: "No need, I don't eat and have no customers, why are we still drinking?"

Wang Yi said: "The cheapest Yi Chiujian, don't you still have money for me?"

Wang Xianghong took out another two cents and handed them to him, and then he was willing to ask for this corner of wine.

Just drink with spicy strips, the spicy taste is even stronger.

He smacked his lips and exclaimed: "Spicy and comfortable, and it's what men eat and drink!"

After drinking a sip of wine, he came to his interest and said, "Teacher Wang, Feng Ya and the others just now also reminded us of Tang Lanying."

"We cadres should seek welfare for members more, rather than embezzle and accept bribes and enjoy it ourselves."

"I still remember hearing the report that Tang Lanying was very unreasonable. However, the dishes she often had at home include sausages, fragrant belly, bacon, winter bamboo shoots, fish belly, dried clams, chicken and duck eggs, and buy 300 eggs at a time!"

"There is never a shortage of fruits at home. Pears, apples, and oranges are bought in the whole basket. What about the common people? The common people have to buy them one by one, and the few people at home will buy a few."

"She doesn't look like a cadre in terms of dressing. What are the hairy, good-looking, and all kinds of fabrics. The clothes she makes must be marked as a certain clothing store or textile factory in Shanghai to show fashion."

"Do you say this is right?"

"It's not true." Wang Yi said, "but I'm just a teacher, not a cadre."

Wang Xianghong showed him a mysterious smile and didn't say anything, but took another sip of wine, and then couldn't help but exclaim "Enough".

Yimao roast with spicy strips is really strong enough.

The old secretary was very happy to eat and drink. After the last sip of wine, he turned over the cup and pushed it to him, and walked away leisurely while chewing the spicy strips.

This cup is specially sold on the counter of the store or supply and marketing cooperative. Many people don’t buy one or half pounds of alcohol to drink, so they don’t have the money.

They all came to the store to make a corner of wine, and took a few sips with great pleasure and were satisfied. Even if they were finished.

Sun Zhengnan came over to get the pistol lighter, but after getting it, he couldn't let it go.

He has retired from active service and can no longer carry weapons.

Although this little pistol is just a lighter, it is shaped like a real gun and is very realistic. It is still good to have a touch and feel it.

And he smokes too, he is also young. How can young people not like fashion and not pursue handsomeness? When smoking, they take out their guns and shoot them. How handsome!

He immediately tried it, and with a 'click' sound, the cigarette lit!

At this time, the sun sets, and the orange-red sunset shines all over the sea and the islands. A boat comes back one after another. The fisherman's titles and fisherman's songs come from afar, full of the roughness of fishermen.

After a day after work, some people came to the store to drink a little wine to relax.

Wang Yi prepared peanuts for them. This peanut is soft and has a strong sauce flavor. It is no different from alcoholic peanuts and five-spice peanuts when used for wine.

In addition, he cooked tea eggs during the day, and also took two of them into small pieces. When drinking, he ate two pieces of them. This wine was naturally comfortable to drink.

Dabang, Wang Dongyang, Wang Dongmei and others all came. They leaned on the counter and spent 20 cents to ask for a glass of wine, accompanied by peanuts and tea eggs, and were satisfied.

They said, "It's really delicious and spicy."

"The store can't make money from us, haha, isn't the food more expensive than this cup of rice?"

"Teacher Wang, we caught some prawns on the boat today and gave them to Tingtaoju. You can steam them to eat at night."

Wang Yi smiled and said, "Okay, you drink it quickly, there is still a group of people behind you after you finish drinking."

Several people leaned on the counter and sipped wine and chatted casually. After eating, they burped comfortably, picked up their clothes and strolled on their shoulders and walked home.
