Chapter 2

"Mongo!"

Lu Lu was also surprised, he didn't expect to run into acquaintances as soon as he left Yichun Railway Station.

The person who came was named Lei Meng, who was seven or eight years older than Lu Lu. He was the farm manager of the farm where Lu Lu stayed in the Great Northern Wilderness before, a resolute and reliable demobilized soldier.

Back then when Lu Lu was on the farm, he was down-to-earth and hard-working. He never cheated or cheated. It's an easy job, go to the sideline team, and be in charge of the safflower 100 planted on the farm.

Safflower 100 is a code name.

However, the 100 safflowers planted here are not planted to harm people, but are planted according to the plan for the needs of medical treatment.

Such a crucial place, if it wasn't that person, I really don't feel relieved to put it there.

Moreover, in order to return Lu Lu back to the city, Lei Meng did a lot of help. He knew the general situation of Lu Lu, but he couldn't bear Lu Lu, a good young man, to spend his whole life in this wild wilderness.

I was reluctant to give up, but I hoped that he would have a better way of life, so in the end, when I parted, I only said one sentence: "If it is not easy to go back, I will come back to the farm. You save your place."

A very simple sentence, but it is full of warmth and kindness.

Now, Lu Lu is back...

"It's hard to go back to the city, why are you back?"

Raymond happily handed over a cigarette, along with the matches.

Lu Lu instinctively took it, and after being slightly taken aback, returned the cigarette and matches: "Quit."

"Stop doing?"

Raymond frowned slightly: "I remember you used to be addicted to smoking."

Lu Lu was really addicted to smoking before.

During the eight years of living in the Great Northern Wilderness, most of the male workers would smoke.

It's just because in summer, the wild land with luxuriant water plants and trees, and the fertile black soil are also hotbeds for mosquitoes and midges.

Smoking is very effective in preventing mosquito infestation.

Therefore, even an educated youth who has never smoked will become a smoker after one summer in the Great Northern Wilderness.

In the last life, Lu Lu also quit smoking, purely because the year when he returned to Haicheng, he lived in extreme poverty, cheap cigarettes were not easy to smoke, and if he smoked one or two casually, his throat and chest were on fire, and he had a strange smell Children, but as long as it is with a handle, it is not cheap.

Or to save money.

It wasn't until later when I started business, conditions improved, and various entertainment needs came that I started smoking again.

Now the choice is different. He originally wanted to smoke, but he still forcibly held back. In his last life, he was diagnosed with lung cancer in his sixtieth year. The main reason was that he smoked two packs of cigarettes a day. The family that was dragged down by him and didn't end up with him made it worse, and kept it a secret until his death.

"It's not good to smoke too much, Brother Meng, you should smoke less!" Lu Lu took a deep breath and whispered.

"Transformed?"

Lei Meng turned his head to look at Lu Lu, jokingly said that he could tell from Lu Lu's expression that Lu Lu's trip back this time was not satisfactory.

In fact, he himself also received letters from the educated youths who had left. After leaving the Great Northern Wilderness and returning to the city, those who are going through the next ordeal are, in all likelihood, trying to change their fate.

Raymond lit a cigarette for himself and took a deep breath: "What are you doing here this time?"

Lu Lu smiled: "From now on, I will take root in this land."

"That's good... just right, I also came here today to pick up some old forestry workers to the farm, you come back with me, anyway, you can do those things on the farm, and you are educated, just lacking a capable hand like you. I said that as long as I am still in charge of the farm, I will reserve a place for you, and I will do what I say."

Lei Meng reached out and patted Lu Lu on the shoulder, looking very happy.

He thought that Lu Lu had come to return to the farm.

The wave of educated youth returning to the city has had a great impact on the farms in the Great Northern Wilderness.

The previously bustling farms have suddenly become extremely short of manpower. They are constantly recruiting old workers, demobilized soldiers, or from nearby native villages to try their best to recruit manpower, but they still cannot get a good supply. It was difficult to operate, and it slowly recovered in the next few years.

Logging in forest farms is mostly done after winter. From the beginning of spring to the autumn harvest, it is the time when the farm needs manpower most.

"Brother Meng, I'm sorry, I won't go to the farm, I want to go to the mountains."

He was not alone on the farm.

It won't change much just because of his arrival alone.

He just wants to be a blind stream now.

Blind flow, people without land and household registration, also means blind flow.

In recent years, blind people have entered the city and are subject to very strict controls. Once they are discovered, they are usually caught in prison for labor and repatriated.

But, that's for people trying to find their way into the city.

Lands like the Great Northern Wilderness are not strict at this stage.

In fact, a long time ago, there was a wave of immigrants to the Northeast during the period of entering the Guandong. Later, when the army reclaimed the Great Northern Wilderness, a large number of people of all kinds entered the Northeast.

During the period of entering the Guandong, people chose a village to open up wasteland and cultivate land, and became a point. Based on this, they helped rich families with work, and they also made a living by logging, mining, and panning for gold.

After liberation, when people came to the land here, it was the same operation. They attached themselves to the production teams, forest farms, and mines to open up wasteland, and then did various temporary jobs and worked as coolies.

It will not be accepted until it is approved by the local people, and it will be recommended for official settlement. For settlement, each district has a certain number of places every year.

It is the same nowadays. Farms and forest farms also need a lot of labor, especially those who can work hard.

The reason why Lu Lu chose to become a blind student was entirely to cut off the past with Haicheng. At the same time, he planned to become a professional mountain chaser.

Blind streaming is the best choice, freedom!
This land is rich in various resources. At this stage, there are no restrictions on guns and hunting. With the deepening of reform and opening up, there are a lot of good things in this mountain. As long as you have the ability, you can exchange them for money. I didn't choose to go to farms or forest farms, because I didn't want to be subject to too many restrictions and miss this great opportunity to make money.

Although a regular job is stable, it is not a bowl of big money, at least for ordinary people.

In his last life, he bought and sold all kinds of mountain products, and also participated in some hunting. He also has some experience in understanding and obtaining mountain products. He believes that he can live well in this black land.

Seeing Lu Lu's refusal, Lei Meng was slightly taken aback, and looked Lu Lu up and down.

When he came back this time, Lu Lu seemed to be a completely different person. Seeing his disheartened and listless appearance, Lei Meng tentatively asked: "Is it because you returned to the city once, kid? What hit it?"

"No, I just want to find a place to live a good life."

Lu Lu let out a long breath of suffocation in his heart, and put on a relaxed expression.He didn't want to mention the experience of returning to the city for a year, and he didn't want to trouble Raymond
"Okay, if you don't want to go to the farm, I won't force you... Really don't think about it anymore?" Raymond confirmed again.

Lu Lu smiled slightly: "Thank you Brother Meng for your kindness."

Seeing Lu Lu's insistence, Lei Meng didn't say anything more.

At this moment, a few forest farm workers walked up from a distance, and Lei Meng hurried up to meet them. After saying hello, they got into the car together.

When the car started, Lei Meng poked his head out of the car window and looked at Lu Lu: "It's still the same sentence, if you need anything, just come to the farm to find me, and don't forget to come and see me after you settle down."

Lu Lu nodded, watching the car staggering away with a cloud of dust, he also put his backpack on his back, and after eating and drinking at a stall near the station, he found a hotel to stay early.

The state of the body must be restored as soon as possible.
