Chapter 41 Going to the county seat

The captain took a look and saw that it was brown sugar and malted milk, and said, "Just keep it, it's okay."

The captain's wife glanced at him and said, "Didn't these two people come to see you through the back door?"

The team leader said, "They just came here to inquire about the matter and see if the recruitment of teachers is an internal decision and whether there is anyone else involved."

The captain's wife nodded, "You can't make the decision in this matter, can you?"

The captain nodded, "Yes, the town attaches great importance to the affairs of this school. The leader even personally sent someone to take charge of the examination papers. There is no room for such things as going through the back door."

The captain's wife hesitantly glanced at the thing in her hand, "Can we take this thing away?"

"It's okay. You're here to thank me for taking care of you. Those two are smart people and won't talk nonsense." The captain waved his hand.

Wen Xin and Wang Yumei were very quiet on the way back and didn't speak. Carefully and anxiously, I returned to the backyard, carefully closing the door.

Looking around the room, everyone gathered in Zhao Wanqing's room.

After entering, they saw Zhao Wanqing and Zhang Yingying drinking tea, chatting and eating melon seeds.

Seeing the two people coming back, Zhang Yingying said excitedly, "You are back, how are you?"

The two sat down and took a sip of water before speaking, "According to the team leader, this time the teacher recruitment is the responsibility of someone from the town, from setting the questions, reading the papers, to finally deciding the quota. So the village will not control this matter, then It shows that this process is basically fair.”

Zhao Wanqing said, "That's good. Since it's fair, you have to rely on your ability."

Zhang Yingying also nodded, "There are still a few days left. We have to read hard these days."

Wang Yumei also said, "Yes. Have any of you brought your textbooks? If not, we will have a rest tomorrow and let's go to the scrap station to look for them."

Wen Xin agreed, "I have books here. I'll go to the scrapyard to look for them tomorrow. If I can't find them, I'll use the books I have here first."

"Okay, let's go by bullock cart tomorrow morning." Zhao Wanqing suggested.

"What time does the ox cart run?" Wen Xin wasn't sure about the time.

"I know, the oxcart is at seven o'clock." Zhang Yingying raised her hand and said.

"Okay, we'll all go tomorrow." Zhao Wanqing made the decision.

"Okay, it's getting late. Let's go back and rest. Just don't miss the time tomorrow." Wang Yumei said after seeing what was going on.

The four of them went back to their respective houses and found their own beds.

Back in the house, Wen Xin climbed into bed after washing herself. Lying on the bed, I felt a little more comfortable.

Although I have gotten used to it after such a long time, it is still quite tiring.

A dreamless night.

In the morning Wen Xin was woken up by the sound of rooster crowing next door. I looked at the time, it was only six o'clock. I can no longer fall asleep even if I want to.

Wen Xin propped herself up, her face full of speechlessness as she was awakened.

Since she woke up early, Wen Xin planned to go to the space to have a look.

After entering the space, I first took a cup of soy milk and a tea egg. After finishing the meal, Wen Xin looked at the inventory and saw that there were still many.

We happened to be going to the county town today, and Wen Xin planned to sell some things to make money when she had time. For a while, Wen Xin was a little panicked because she couldn't get out. Although I still have money, I have to make money to feel at ease.

Find out the things you want to buy and pile them in one place, and you will have more space.

When going out, Wen Xin found that the other three people had already packed up.

When we arrived at the bullock cart, we found that someone was already riding on it. After giving the money to the man driving the cattle, the four of them went up and sat down.

If you arrive late, the bullock cart will not be pulled if it is full.

When it was almost seven o'clock, the car was full of people, and Wen Xin saw many educated youths in the car.

I guess I finally took a day off and went to the city to have a toothpaste.

When it comes to eating, Wen Xin has room to not be so greedy for meat. But not necessarily for others. They were busy working every day and had no meat to eat, so they were probably starved to death.

When we arrived at the county seat, the man driving the cattle cart said, "Come here before four o'clock in the afternoon. We won't wait if you are late."

Zhang Yingying and Wang Yumei planned to go to the scrap station first, Zhao Wanqing was going to other places, and Wen Xin also had other things to do.

"Then let's meet at the state-owned hotel at noon." Wang Yumei suggested.

Wen Xin nodded, "Okay."

Zhao Wanqing also agreed, "Okay."

Wen Xin planned to take a look around or see if she could find a black market.

Zhao Wanqing said to Wen Xin, "Wen Xin, I want to find a relative at home, can you do it yourself?"

Wen Xin nodded quickly, "I can do it myself, you go ahead and do it."

After that, Zhao Wanqing left.

Wen Xin saw people leaving, so she went to the post office first, and bought a lot of stamps according to the saying that educated youth should often write letters home.

After leaving the post office, Wen Xin found a corner and packed herself into a skinny young man, carrying a basket on his back with rice noodles and meat oil in it.

Three hundred meters west from the post office is a machinery factory. Wen Xin planned to go there to try her luck first.

When I just walked over, I happened to meet a man who was about to go to work. The man was wearing overalls, carrying a bag and wearing a watch.

Judging from his appearance, this person should be quite wealthy.

Wen Xin walked over and grabbed the man's arm, "Brother, why are you here? I've been waiting for you here for a long time."

The man looked confused, "Who are you?"

Wen Xin whispered, "Brother, I have some rice noodles and meat oil here, do you want it?" She opened a corner of her backpack.

When the man saw the food and meat in the basket, his eyes lit up. He didn't care that the man came up and called me brother, and said excitedly, "How much?"

Wen Xin whispered back, "Let's go to that corner."

"Okay." The man pulled Wen Xin over directly.

"What do you have?" The man stared straight at the backpack.

"I have white flour, rice, pork, and oil. How much do you want?" Wen Xin counted.

"Then give me 20 kilograms of white flour, 20 kilograms of rice, 10 kilograms of pork, and five kilograms of oil." The man thought about the money in his hand and quoted the quantity.

"Okay." Wen Xin happily packed the things from the backpack. "This bag is for you."

The man watched Wen Xin pack the things and confirmed that the weight was correct.

"A total of forty-seven yuan and seventy-five cents." Wen Xin counted the money.

The man happily took out the money. After holding the thing in his hand, the man said, "I am the workshop director of the machinery factory. My name is Qi Jianye. If you have anything in the future, you can come directly to me here."

Wen Xin put the money away and nodded, "Okay, my name is Liangzi. I will come back to you when I have goods."

The man left with his things.

Wen Xin didn't expect that the person she caught at random was a workshop director. He was rich, and he paid fifty yuan immediately.

After that, Wen Xin planned to visit other places to see if she could find a black market.

Wen Xin was carrying a backpack and was about to walk forward when she saw an old lady with a stooped back walking quickly in one direction.

Wen Xin had a hunch that she was going to the black market, so she quickly followed.

Following the old lady's twists and turns, I saw her entering a small door. There were two gatekeepers outside the door.
