Chapter 002: Looking Ahead to Change the Character Design
That is a doctor, a good doctor not only brings fame and profit. He will receive the support of many people
For their own happiness and strength, they will also support themselves and preserve themselves
To learn Traditional Chinese Medicine Level 1 requires 100 gold coins, and there are still 540 gold coins remaining. However, to advance to Level 2 requires 500 gold coins. Therefore, I will advance, leaving 40 gold coins for the gatekeeper
The third category consists of 18 legs, for the same reason as above
One profession to mention is that of a carpenter. The profession of carpenter will remain quite sought after for a long time in the future. Generally, families that cannot obtain tickets will exchange some wood and ask a master to craft items, providing meals and also paying for the service. Therefore, those who have traveled back to that era, especially homebodies without any skills and lacking external aids like Da Mao, might consider learning carpentry.
All the tickets referred to here truly pertain to your daily necessities, including food, clothing, housing, transportation, and all aspects of daily life.
As for the era of marriage, it was similar to the present, divided into several levels.
The first level consists of the three-in-one device, bicycles, watches, sewing machines, and radios. These three items, not to mention now, were considered top-tier even in the early 1980s
Select skill: Traditional Chinese Medicine
As long as one invests in their skills and builds a reputation, will there still be a shortage of money and tickets?
It is no exaggeration to say that in the 1960s, in many places of "Daxia", farmers watching movies were akin to the subjects of a feudal dynasty viewing Western scenery, as too many things were beyond their comprehension. In fact, for a long period after the establishment of "Daxia", the entire "Daxia" functioned as a large school, with the farmers as students, outdoor films as textbooks, and the film projectionists as teachers, guiding the farmers to understand the policies of "Daxia" and introducing them to the outside world, serving as "people's teachers" in certain fields.

When screening old films, it is acceptable; there are those who have seen them and explain in a somewhat boastful manner. However, for new films, the projectionist must personally provide commentary to ensure that the general public can understand and grasp the core concept of the "Great Summer" promotion
Light bulbs, soap, candles, matches, benches, wardrobes, cabbage, radishes, potatoes, and so on. Everything that is useful requires tickets.
A letter of introduction is essential in this era, as one must first register with the local accommodation management department, which will issue a certificate. Only then will hotels and guesthouses accept you
As for the main profession of projectionist, Xu Damao plans to focus on doing it well for the time being. There is also a good option for a side job.
Xu Damao's skill in vocal mimicry is likely honed through repeated explanations for the common people
Going to the countryside for a screening. It completely relies on oneself to walk there carrying over 100 pounds of equipment.
The traditional Chinese medicine of "Great Xia" is still the best, with thousands of years of accumulation and high recognition among the common people, and medicinal materials are available nationwide. Therefore, Xu Damao wants to become a specialist in men's physiological health.
Do not even think about it, in this era of material scarcity and low productivity, everything requires tickets.
Literature: 2 / 10
In such a social environment, taking things out to flaunt is no different from seeking death
Mouth performance: [1 / 10]
Chess skills: [1 / 10]
Do not even think about flipping houses; at least for the next ten years, do not entertain such thoughts! Currently, houses are all allocated.
Let's get to it and open the store
Skills have been acquired, but one must still put on a show; after all, one cannot suddenly possess medical expertise without reason
Xu Damao
When it comes to the point of no longer being considered marriage, many families were struggling to make ends meet, especially those with many sons. The phrase "the little boys eat their fathers to death" was not just a joke. With a lack of oil and salt, they relied on a meager amount of coarse grains, and the children cried out in hunger. The only option was to send the slightly older daughters away. They would inquire about families without daughters-in-law, find a few neighbors to serve as witnesses, and upon seeing food hanging in a basket from the beam in the house, they would place their daughter in someone else's home, saying, "My daughter will be your wife; just don't let the children go hungry." After saying this, they would run away in tears.
At that time, the parents were also feeling distressed! Sending their own daughter to another family as a child bride was unbearable for anyone, but there was no choice; it was only to ensure the child's survival
Memory is gradually being input, from the identification, dosage, and combination of herbs to the assessment of illness through observation, listening, inquiry, and palpation. A systematic understanding has been established.
Today is Sunday, I am not going to work and will go to the library to borrow a few books to enhance my image
Open the panel to take a look before departure
In the future, with basic security in place, what remains is to change one's persona
One must endure and wait for stability, whether one wishes to develop oneself or to use the technology acquired from the marketplace to support the nation, all require a stable environment. To attempt to change the course of history alone is undoubtedly akin to a mantis trying to stop a chariot
Because only with the national food coupons can you purchase food in other regions, the national food coupons are available in the Pigeon Market at a price of 1 to 2, but they are not in circulation.
Since one must endure, the first step is to perform one's own duties well
Provide a few of the simplest examples. First, regarding the fixed quantity of food allocated per person, taking the Bund as an example, the daily average allocation is 3 taels for 10 days, and 2 taels for other times This refers to grain
With the spatial golden finger and the all-purpose assistance of the shop
Let me tell you another story about lesbians. Nowadays, when girls have their menstrual period, they use sanitary pads, but back then, they used plant ash! Do you know what plant ash is? It is the residue left after burning plants. They would sew some plant ash into a piece of cloth and tuck it into their pants. Only a few progressive lesbians could receive a ticket called "menstrual belt"! How to use it? What effect it had, no one knew!
This situation will result in a disciplinary action being taken
The second category consists of 36 legs, which means that your home has prepared a brand new wardrobe, bed, table, stool, and so on, totaling 36 legs.
Now, do not mention "Daxia"; there is hardly any decent equipment available around the world, and the variety of medicines is excessively limited
When those films promoting the main theme are screened across more than 9 million square kilometers of land, the hearts of the entire nation come together—this is an ideal state. The reality, however, is that the vast area of over 9 million square kilometers inevitably brings many issues, foremost among them being the significant differences in culture, language, customs, and so on across various regions. The first challenge faced by the projectionists is how to "ensure that the audience can understand".
Screening: 5 / 10
In this era, there are no entertainment activities; essentially, one reads books, plays chess, and has children
In this ticket-driven era, being able to obtain these tickets is quite impressive
Culinary skills: [1/10]
For travel, you must first have an introduction letter and a nationally accepted grain coupon
The skill in Traditional Chinese Medicine has increased, and the skill has also reached level 2! Spending money feels great
New three years, old three years, patching and mending for another three years, this saying is well-known, and it is indeed true, because there were not enough cloth coupons! A typical family could save for a year to exchange for a new outfit for one member of the household. However, they generally were reluctant to do so and would instead trade it for food coupons or other tickets they needed.
The monthly meat ration is set at 6 taels, with the possibility of an increase for those engaged in heavy physical labor. For instance, workers in a steel rolling mill, which is considered heavy labor, can receive 8 taels of meat ration per month. This is in the heart of the nation, the city of Beijing. Other places receive even less
Then wait until the day of opening, as for taking the products from the space out to sell
Even if it is a bit lacking, there must be two thermoses. In many films and television dramas, the groom carries the bride, and the bride holds two thermoses, wearing a face full of happiness! This is because thermos tickets are hard to come by
Mathematics: [3 / 10]
Western medicine is not being considered for the time being, as it primarily relies on equipment
If a comparison is to be made, it can be roughly likened to the barefoot doctors in rural areas
The work of a projectionist is not easy in itself. In the factory, there are no extra earnings from the screenings
Traditional Chinese Medicine: 2 / 10
The situation is somewhat better near the Four Nine City; in other areas, the projectionists, in order to facilitate the farmers' understanding, must use language that is easily comprehensible. The projectionists also need to learn and use local dialects and colloquialisms, such as referring to going to work as "doing work," calling children "young ones," and expressing the fear of offending someone as "losing face"... and so on.
In this way, even without taking sides in the storm of the future, one can stand firm and unyielding
Do not mention the comforter, as there truly is none! Cotton tickets are only issued in winter, and each person receives only a few taels. Even after saving for several years, one cannot accumulate enough for a single comforter
If luck is on your side when you go, you might be able to catch a ride on an ox cart or a donkey cart heading into the village. If your luck is not good, you will have to walk, maintaining a steady pace of ten miles in an hour. Typically, the distance to the countryside is around thirty to forty miles, or even as far as fifty miles. It all depends on your own ability to walk on the road. If you encounter a village that is a bit farther away, you may need to spend most of the day walking on your own.
