Chapter 38 Say a few words


Chapter 38 Say a few words

The author is here again.

This is my fourth novel. The previous two chronicles were successful, but the historical novel failed.

Although it is said that failure is the mother of success, it also limits the author to "niche literature" such as chronicles, so the fourth part is still a chronicle.

Of course, I don’t have any ambition to become a great or platinum author.

I am self-aware. I was a science student when I was studying. After working, I also engaged in medical work, and I didn’t have much time to deal with words.

But a young doctor also has a literary dream in his heart.

As for this fourth novel, although it is a period novel, the style is still light-hearted.

But to be honest, the author is born in the 1980s and has never experienced that booming era. He can only rely on collected information or inquiries from the elderly.

As for whether there are any shortcomings, I guess there are. I would also like to thank the majority of netizens for pointing it out. Although I may not necessarily change it, I am still very grateful.

But there are also some criticisms, which may be caused by information errors.

For example, the author wrote that the protagonist went to the black market to sell rice for 5 yuan per pound. Many readers said it was impossible. This price would be high-priced rice in 2024, let alone 1959. But the author found the magazine "Yanhuang Chunqiu", Issue 8, 2007, which contained a recall article by a retired cadre of the BJ Second Commercial Bureau.

It is clearly written above that in those three years, local food stamps on the black market were 3 yuan per catty, national food stamps were 4 yuan per catty, and face stamps were 5 yuan per catty.

If food stamps are priced at such a sky-high price, then if you just give Bai Huahua rice, is it expensive to charge you 5 yuan per pound?

Although the author was surprised when he first read this article, it is true.

People who have not experienced those three years can hardly imagine what happened back then. I can only understand that money is just a piece of paper, and food can save lives.

Writing about the year 1959 has a relatively high risk, everyone understands that, but the author doesn’t want to write about the Siheyuan, so I can only touch on the edges. I hope everyone can understand.

Finally, I wish everyone a good mood while reading.

Life is already very difficult. I write novels and you read novels just for fun.

If you like it, help recommend it to Zhang Piao. If you don't like it, abandon the book. I can't stand this cowardice anymore.

But don’t curse people. If some readers enjoy scolding, the author will be unhappy. If the author is unhappy, he won’t want to write. Then both sides will suffer, haha.

(The new book has already received support from many monthly votes and old friends. I added a chapter today. Although it is not much, I still express my feelings. Old friends all know that this author is relatively lazy)
