全省物资交流工作,在一九五○年冬季是取得很多成绩的。一九四九年的冬季我们曾创造与发展了合同制,一九九○年合同制是普遍地运用了。这对物资交流工作的开展,作用是很大的。山西经过了几年来的生产运动,农村经济一般已大体恢复,若干老区并有相当发展。这样,农民的大量粮食、棉花以及其它土产山货需要推销。也只有很好地推销了农副产品,才能买回农民所需要的生产资料和生活资料,这是一件大事情。一九五零年全省商品棉约在四千三百万斤以上,已销二千六百万斤,连存棉计算,农民尚有二千万斤。粮食仅长治专区,即剩余一亿斤,已销五千六百万斤,还有四千多万斤需要推 The province’s material exchange work has achieved many successes in the 1950 winter season. In the winter of 1949, we had created and developed the contract system. The contract system of 1990 was universally applied. This material exchange work carried out, the role is great. After several years of production movement in Shanxi, the rural economy generally has generally recovered, and some old districts have enjoyed considerable development. In this way, large quantities of peasants’ crops, cotton and other indigenous products are required to be sold. It is a major event that we can only sell the agricultural and sideline products well in order to buy back the means of production and means of subsistence needed by the peasants. In 1950, the province’s cotton output was above 43 million jin and sold 26 million jin. Even with the calculation of stored cotton, the peasants still have 20 million jin. Changzhi food only area, that is, the remaining 100 million pounds, has sold 56 million pounds, there are more than 40 million pounds need to push
