This is normal. The last few digits scraped off are the mantissa of the tobacco monopoly license number of this store. Generally, good cigarettes and tight cigarettes are supplied in limited quantities. Some stores have a good business and the goods are not enough to sell, so they adjust other cigarettes to sell. The mantissa was marked to meet the inspection of tobacco inspectors.

Cigarettes are exclusive products and are not allowed to be sold across regions. The bar code of the cigarettes sold must be consistent with the retailer's monopoly license number, otherwise it is called illegal circulation of real cigarettes. Local tobacco departments also have assessment indicators, that is, the number of cigarettes illegally circulated by real cigarettes was seized by departments outside the province, and local cigarettes were not allowed to flow out.

In this case, if a part of the code is burned, the original sales area of this kind of cigarette cannot be executed, which is also a hidden rule in many areas before the cigarette flows out. Generally, dumped cigarette dealers will operate by themselves, and they will not be held responsible for the source in case of being seized.

If you are really worried, you can take the cigarettes you bought and go to the local tobacco company for identification.

The origin of cigarettes:

A cigarette is a tobacco product. The production method is to dry tobacco and shred it, and then grow it into a barrel-shaped strip with a diameter of 120mm in a paper roll. When smoking, one end is lit, and then the smoke is breathed through the mouth at the other end.

Cigarettes were first popular in Turkey, and locals like to roll up tobacco with newspapers and smoke it. During the Crimean War, British soldiers learned the method of smoking from the soldiers of the Ottoman Empire at that time, and then spread it to different places. Tobacco is not the only ingredient in most cigarettes. Sailors brought tobacco seeds back to Portugal in 1558, and then they spread all over Europe.

16 12 years, British colonial official John Rolfe planted tobacco in Jamestown, Virginia, and started the tobacco trade. Tobacco was introduced to China in the middle of16th century. At first, dry tobacco was introduced, which has been planted for more than 400 years.
