Chapter 720 Domestic Changes



Although I heard that imported goods that do not require tickets will continue to be available on the shelves in the future, who knows if the policy will change!

Buy it early and feel more at ease!

Sure enough, not long after, more and more people came in after hearing the news, and the entrance of the mall was packed with people rushing to buy.

"Actually, we have the priority right to purchase this kind of electrical appliances that don't require a ticket. Your brother asked someone to help buy the color TV in our house first!" Zhang Luyao's mother said to her daughter who was unaware of the situation.

Those who have connections are definitely more informed. This kind of product that does not require a ticket is not within the control of the plan, so it will be easier to buy it!

Before this batch of electrical appliances entered the department stores, insiders received the news in advance and purchased the appliances they wanted through internal channels early on.

Families like the Zhang family bought all the home appliances early on, and even found ways to buy appliances like color TVs, which had very low domestic production.

Although these electrical appliances do not require tickets, their prices are still higher than domestic ones. Of course, the price increase is not as high as the required ticket price, so the people who heard the news and rushed to buy these electrical appliances so enthusiastically.

"You just returned, so there's still a lot you don't know! Since the end of last year, every household in our city has received a few more kilograms of food coupons! Speaking of which, this is all thanks to neighboring Myanmar. I heard they implemented a policy of contracting land to households starting the year before last, nationalizing all the land and then dividing it among households. Each farmer grows their own crops, and at harvest time, they hand over a portion of the grain, and the rest is theirs."

"It's a small country with constant wars and the people are unable to eat enough, but it has suddenly gotten better since last year. They even have surplus grain to sell to us! Also, I heard from your father that they are also holding a meeting to discuss the situation in this small country, especially the new policy of contracting land to households. It seems that they plan to first see how other countries implement it, and then see if it can be implemented here!" Zhang's mother talked about some of the changes in recent years so that her daughter could adapt early.

In fact, Li Nanxing did not tell Zhang Luyao about the situation in Myanmar. After all, she was trying to avoid involvement as much as possible, especially since Xu Mingchen and his men had used a large number of Soviet weapons. Such sensitive things were like dancing on the heads of Americans, and they had caused such a big commotion in Myanmar. Sooner or later, they would be targeted by American agents. The Americans would definitely wonder in their hearts whether it was a new force cultivated by the Soviet Union that occupied Myanmar!

Li Nanxing didn't want to be blacklisted by the Americans, so he didn't tell anyone about this and had no contact with them at all!

After all, they can communicate directly in Li Nanxing's space!

However, Zhang Luyao also had a vague guess that the changes in Myanmar must be related to Li Nanxing!

Especially this policy of "dividing land to households", isn't this what China will implement in the future?

This "dividing land to households" policy, also known as the "household contract responsibility system," was pioneered by Xiaogang Village in Fengyang County, Anhui Province in 1978.

At that time, the eighteen farmers in the village held a "secret meeting" in a low and dilapidated hut, and then secretly signed a "life and death agreement" together. They decided to contract out the land in the village.

The main contents of this "life and death statement" are three: one is to distribute land to each household; two is to no longer ask the state for money and food; three is that if the cadres are imprisoned, the members guarantee to support their children until they are 18 years old.

It was this "secret meeting" that established the household contract responsibility system. (This "life and death statement" is now housed in the National Museum of China, marking a significant beginning of China's reform and opening up.)

At the time, team leader Yan Junchang emphasized to the villagers, "We will distribute the land to each household, and keep it secret from the superiors but not from the subordinates. You are not allowed to disclose it to anyone."

In 1978, this move was unacceptable to the world, but it was also a brave and even great feat.

In the same year when land was distributed to households, Xiaogang Village had a bumper grain harvest.

After that, this nationally famous "begging village" was transformed into a truly wealthy village, where every household had money to eat and build new houses.

Not long after, rumors about the situation in Xiaogang Village began to spread, followed by a large number of critical voices, who believed that this was a restoration of capitalism.

Although the country has announced that it will carry out reform and opening up, and has also been carrying out pilot projects of reform and opening up, the "dividing land to households" still faces many obstacles.

Zhang Luyao knew that according to historical progress, in two years, the policy of "dividing land into households" would be gradually promoted throughout the country.

This is a slow but necessary policy because the country's economic system really can't hold on any longer!

The country must make reforms!

Myanmar has also implemented the "land distribution to households" policy, which serves as a model for us to see what problems will be encountered if this policy is promoted on a large scale across the country.

This is what reform is all about, we have to cross the river by feeling the stones!

All along, it was the neighboring Soviet Union that had been "walking on the minefields" in front, and it stepped on several big mines accurately, while China, which was following behind, narrowly avoided them time and time again. Now Myanmar has been added to the list, and there is one more case that can be learned from each other!

This is actually something that the Chinese top leaders are happy to see, especially since the political situation of this neighbor has been unstable for a long time, with constant internal strife, which has made the situation in the provinces near China also unstable and the economy unable to develop.

Now that the political situation in neighboring countries is stable, I can carry out reforms with peace of mind!

China began its reform and opening up, and opened international routes. Many overseas Chinese have returned to China to look for their relatives.

Zhang Luyao once asked Li Nanxing when she would return to China, and he wanted her to come and see the courtyard house in person before buying it for her!

But what did Li Nanxing say?

"I don't plan to return home until you become a 'powerful minister'! I don't want to become the second 'Prince Milk'!"

Okay, that seems to make some sense!

Before China’s “gun ban”, public security was very poor, and the chances of rich people getting into trouble were very high!

There are a large number of weapons hidden among the people, some of which were captured from the enemy during the war and some of which flowed into the public from the Soviet Union.

Some villages even hide tanks. Can you believe it?

In short, it is still quite dangerous!

Anyway, just buy any courtyard house you like and do some simple renovations!

It doesn’t matter whether she sees it or not, what matters is the land and the house!
