Chapter 24 Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes
When Ma Feng, an inexplicable line-trip, came to Dushan Farm, the attitude of other educated youth in the production team was indifferent.
The farmers who were arranged to go to the line were also confused.
But when Ma Feng came, he brought a whole box of cured meat and other good things, and knew that he would secretly please the farmer he lived in and secretly give some benefits to the neighbors, so all doubts were temporarily suppressed.
Farmers have the simplicity and wisdom of farmers. No one will deliberately get along with those who can share meat for their own homes and give cloths.
In addition, Gu Ao warned Ma Feng that no matter how much he studied, he had to exercise every day to maintain a good mental state. Therefore, the two of them would go to the fields to do farm work for two hours every day - when they were working and finishing work, they would each show up in front of others for an hour.
Just think it's exercise, and avoid the sun when it's fierce at noon.
Therefore, even if it is an irrelevant outsider who wants to gossip, there is no way to start.
After all, before achieving household contract responsibility, farmers' enthusiasm for production cannot be mobilized, and it is common for them to work or work, so naturally, they should not be too harsh on the requirements of educated youth.
Otherwise, next year, the farmers in Xiaogang Village would not have to risk pressing their bloody fingerprints and signing a life-and-death case and privately share the land and contract the land.
The tranquility was only broken after entering mid-November.
In rural areas in the south, autumn harvest usually ends in October. In early November, there is nothing more than some storing work for threshing and drying, which is a slack season.
This day is November 11th.
The commune cardinal went to the county, brought a communiqué when he came back, and the Renren Daily, which had been squeezed in the county for more than half a month.
At noon that day, several educated youth from nearby production teams were in full bloom.
It took them 20 days after the national media to publish the news that they learned about the resumption of the college entrance examination.
However, this obviously won't affect everyone's enthusiasm at all.
There is only one month left before the date of the exam. However, there is only more than a week left before the deadline for registration and qualification review.
Next Saturday, that is, on the 19th, all registration work will be terminated, and the qualification review work will be completed within a few days after the deadline.
All educated youth were in a mess.
Gu Ao followed the crowd and went to the county town to submit various materials.
In the review office of the county education bureau, when the staff saw that Gu Ao's household registration relationship was still in another province, they asked a few more questions suspiciously. They learned that he came to the lineup after graduation in June this year. After repeated verification, they asked him to go back and add some materials, but said that in principle it could be passed.
After all, there are still many educated youth from Hujiang in Hui Province, so it is not surprising to register across provinces.
Ten days later, everything was settled and Gu Ao successfully obtained the admission ticket.
...
It was also after the admission examination procedures were completed that the educated youth gradually woke up from the at a loss and began to spend their energy on reviewing.
For a moment, at least two-thirds of the educated youth in the entire production team looked for reasons not to work, or like Gu Ao, they worked for one hour every day, which was considered to be physical exercise.
Fortunately, the winter slack farming season was slack, and the managers of the Secretary and the Education Youth Office also understood everyone's difficulties and were not very worried.
However, there will be a world of martial arts where there are people.
Some educated youth who are not well-reviewed and feel that they know the notification too late, and are already desperate about the review, will start to think about other ideas.
Soon someone noticed that Gu Ao had been studying hard every day since more than two months ago, even in the month of autumn harvest, he had to borrow kerosene lamps to read at night.
Some people also noticed that Ma Feng seemed to have only been here a month before the exam resumed, and his skeleton was as weird as a monkey, and he looked like a scammer.
Some people also noticed that Gu Ao and Ma Feng have two very sophisticated sets of review secrets for "Nine Yin Scriptures" - Hujiang Science and Technology Press's "Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry Self-study Series".
Those who are not worried about lack of worries but unevenness are worried about inequality. Those who have no hope of going to school will soon ferment the jealousy of runners like Gu Ao and Ma Feng.
"I heard that science and engineering teachers from the Provincial Department of Education don't know what to take for the resumed exams. It seems that they are taking the "Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry Self-Study Series" as a reference outline!"
"I heard that the Wu Yue native named Gu, Ma, was from Bai Zong and ZI faction. He had a relationship with the central government, so he was very informed and went to school and ran away!"
Such gossips have spread among a small group of related households in the commune when the exam is half a month away.
After all, it is impossible to keep confidential work completely and rigorous in such a hasty exam. Even the question setting teacher cannot be quarantined for 100% food and accommodation.
The people in the question-setting group will always bring any reference materials, and there will always be channels for them to flow.
There may not be too many educated youth who can find out these news half a month before the exam, but there are always ten or eight out of hundreds of people in a commune.
They are among the top 2% of well-informed people.
Then, when Gu Ao worked every day, he would see someone pointing fingers.
...
On the way back that night, Gu Ao and Ma Feng were stopped by a male educated youth.
Gu Ao was not familiar with that person, and only knew that he was quite rich among the educated youth in the production team.
The man seemed to have done his intelligence work very thoroughly, and when he saw Ma Feng, he said:
"Student Ma, I heard that you are applying for liberal arts, right? Then you don't have to take physical education, can you sell me the six physical education books in the "Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry Self-study Series" to me? I will pay you twice the factory price of the full set of books! 40 yuan!"
Of course, I won’t sell horse wind.
When he was in Qiantang, he asked his friends in the black market to resell more than this price - he can sell at least 100 yuan per set at present.
The more you get to the exam, the more knowledgeable the candidates understand one truth: the value of the book must not be calculated at multiples of the factory price. But you must calculate the time difference and the time difference not to be calculated, and the level of your achievements in the future in this life.
The martial arts secrets that can make your life trajectory much higher than others in the next 40 years is not an exaggeration to the cost.
The male educated youth was unwilling to give up, but immediately repriced: "100 yuan!"
100 yuan, he already needed to ask his father, who was still a skilled worker in the city, to take out some savings from his family. But compared to college, this is still nothing.
The nature of Ma Feng businessmen is somewhat experiencing, and I think it can be considered.
After all, the other party only has six books that he cannot use, and will not form a competitive relationship with him.
However, Gu Ao spoke to stop him.
"Ma Feng! You can't do anything speculative! How can books be sold randomly? You are not a bookstore!"
Gu Ao said this with great sound, but Ma Feng almost choked when he heard it.
He complained wildly in his heart: "Cha? You can't do things that are speculative and counter-attacked? Big boss! You are the ancestor of speculative and counter-attacked!
However, Ma Feng still has to listen to Gu Ao's orders. The boss helped him earn several thousand yuan and gave him a future. How could he betray the boss for a small amount of money?
So he refused harshly.
The male educated youth begged to pay 200 yuan, but was finally told that it was not a problem of money, so he could only leave in despair.
"Brother Gu, why can't you sell it?" Seeing that the other party had dispersed, Ma Feng asked respectfully.
Gu Ao didn't hide it: "If you sell half a set of books, there will be 6 copies. Maybe they will read it in exchange and re-sell them again. Although the exam is only half a month away, when no one is preparing, it may still lead to at least five or six people, and the scores of more than a dozen people have been greatly improved.
For you, you just want to take a junior college entrance examination. There are 5,000 or 6,000 students in Huizhou Province. It doesn’t matter if there are dozens of people with better grades than you, so you can sell it. But I want to take the top 50 in the province, so the less spread of this set of books, the better - this is not a problem that money can solve, do you understand?
For Ouyang Ke, it doesn’t matter if there are more people in the world who have read the Nine Yin Scriptures, one less person has read the Nine Yin Scriptures, the better. This series of books we have, this year, in Huizhou Province, each set is worth a future professor of Jiaotong University.
So when you had to ship your 80 sets of books, I repeatedly told you to ensure that your next company would definitely be digested in Wuyue Province, and that even a piece of paper could not flow into Huizhou Province. We went through hard work to immigrate to Huizhou Province in the college entrance examination. Isn’t the picture just blocked here and the information is asymmetric?”
Ma Feng respected the boss for a far-sighted and never had the idea of selling books again.
...
However, those well-informed educated youth obviously will not give up.
If a man doesn’t have money, then a woman will come to make friends.
Fortunately, Ma Feng is ugly and doesn't look good. He doesn't seem to be able to make a great future after taking the secret. In addition, he is slow to develop and short, and he looks like a 14 or 15-year-old boy. The woman thinks he should not be as old as a woman.
So no young lady can be cruel enough to entrust such an ugly man for life.
In contrast, Gu Ao has grown taller this year because of his work and fitness, and is already 1.75 meters tall. Although he is not that handsome as a young man, he is better than being upright and upright.
So, two days later, a female educated youth came to hang out.
The female educated youth looked pretty good, and she even wore a long dress with soft gauze.
But Gu Ao didn't know him.
Because she is not from Gu Ao's production team, but from the neighboring town. But the female educated youth from all over the countryside is not as beautiful as her, so each production team has a rural legend about her.
"Student Gu, fortunately, my name is Su Zetian. I am from the next town. I want to apply for the exam this year. I heard that you have a set of "Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry Self-study Series". Can I borrow it..."
However, Gu Ao refused after saying that: "No!"
Su Zetian was anxious: "Student Gu, don't get me wrong. I will never take away your book. I will come to you every day to review it. I will never touch the books you want to read, and it will not delay your study. I will choose the books you are not reading.
And I don’t want to see you in vain. Not only can I give you money, but I can also help you bring meals and serve you to drink soup and tea. You can also concentrate on reviewing!"
Gu Ao said ruthlessly: "Student Su, it's not this problem. I don't like to borrow books, so there is no reason."
Chapter completed!
