Chapter 35
After that, they hurried all the way, and they didn't dare to delay except to let the donkey rest twice in the middle.

Even so, it was almost ten o'clock in the evening when the two donkey carts returned to the jar village.

The reason why Wang Manyin knew the exact time was because an educated youth was wearing a watch.Now the price of the most common Shanghai brand watch is more than [-] yuan, which is definitely an expensive item.

Even a worker in the city may have to live frugally for a few months before he can afford one.The key is that even if you have money, you may not be able to buy it. This thing also needs a ticket.

From this alone, Wang Manyin knew that the other party's family was definitely not ordinary people.Coupled with the cotton army coat on his body, it is even more obvious.

Once the situation changes, people may rise into the sky.

But he didn't take it seriously, and he didn't deliberately please and make friends.

Wang Manyin, who has experienced severe beatings in later generations, naturally knows very well that making friends is also based on identity and status.Although it is said that a phoenix with shedding hair is not as good as a chicken, it is a phoenix in its bones.

Your status is not up to that level, trying to please the other party by force will only make people look down on you from the bottom of your heart.

What's more, I have space to exist. As long as I can survive these ten years safely, I believe I can make a name for myself even if I don't rely on anyone in the future.

Thinking about something in his heart, Wang Manyin saw the lights of the village from afar.

After getting closer, I found that many villagers were standing by the side of the road waiting.The leaders are the village party secretary Wang Mandun and the village cadre Zhao Jianhai.

Seeing the donkey cart appear, Wang Mandun rushed up to meet him and asked, "Manyin, why did you take so long? I sent someone to guard the village entrance early in the afternoon, but I couldn't see you all the time. I thought something happened. .”

"It's not a problem. The county has a unified arrangement to let the educated youths leave after lunch, so they came back late." Wang Manyin explained, and said to everyone in the car, "Educated youths, we have already arrived home. This is Wang Mandun, our village party secretary, and Zhao cadre who is stationed in the village, and they specially brought people to welcome everyone."

He had already learned about Zhao Jianhai's trip from Director Guo of the Supply and Marketing Cooperative.

However, Wang Manyin didn't show any abnormalities these days, and he greeted each other as usual when he saw each other.

It's not that he doesn't want to trouble each other, the key is that the identities of the two are different, so they must be patient and wait for the right opportunity.

At this moment, Wang Mantun also said with a smile on his face: "Children, are you hungry? I have already prepared meals, and even the kang is heated up. Hurry up and go to the village to warm up."

For Wang Manyin, bringing these educated youths back to the village safely, his task has been completed.

Traveling back and forth for nearly 150 miles a day, although most of the time was spent in a donkey cart, the whole person was exhausted.

As for how to arrange it next, that is a matter for the village, and has nothing to do with him, so I won't join in the fun.

He handed over the donkey cart to a villager, said hello to Wang Mandun, and prepared to turn around and go home.

In the end, he was stopped by the other party: "Man Yin, what are you doing in a hurry to go home, is there a woman in the house to hug you? Tonight, in order to welcome the educated youth to settle down, our brigade specially set up a few banquets. Pork stewed vermicelli, you and Uncle Fu have been busy all day, so go and be your companion too."

Hearing that there are pork stewed vermicelli, Wang Manyin didn't feel tired immediately.

Of course you have to eat it, you would be a fool if you don’t eat it.

It's been more than two months since he came to this world, and he hasn't eaten a serious pork stir-fry yet.Although there is pork in the big meat buns in state-run restaurants, they are just meat scraps and lard residue, which is not satisfying to eat.

Usually at this time, if there is no meeting, the village has quieted down, and most of the villagers go to bed early.It was different tonight, I heard movement outside, and people kept coming out of the cave.

Then, all the dogs in the village barked.

By the moonlight, everyone looked at the educated young people as if they were looking at some precious animals.

For many villagers who have never even been to the original West County in their entire lives, ten educated youths from the village jumped in line, which is already considered big news.It's worth talking about for a long time.

No way, the channels for farmers to obtain information in this era are too narrow.

It's as if many people looked down on Wang Manyin before and called him a wandering ghost, but they kept asking him about the outside world, revealing a bit of envy in their words.

Of course, after Wang Manyin opened the consignment point, his status in the village has also improved a lot, and he has been regarded as a capable person by many people.

As everyone came to the courtyard of the brigade, Wang Manyin realized that in order to accommodate the educated youths, the village deliberately vacated two holes in the cave here, and prepared firewood for them early in the winter.

Not only that, but the kang in the cave was also burned early.

There was still a large iron pot on the stove, and the village party secretary's mother-in-law was reheating the food.It is said that it has been ready in the afternoon and has been steaming on the pot.

After everyone rushed to help arrange the salute, the hot meals were placed on the kang table again.

Village party secretary Wang Mantun, village cadre Zhao Jianhai, two production captains, three accountants (brigade accountant and production team accountant), women director, militia platoon leader... plus Wang Manyin and Wang Fuchang.The number of accompanying guests is more than the educated youth who jump in line.

Regarding this scene, the educated youths who had just arrived were a little dazed, thinking that the villagers of Guanzi Village were very enthusiastic and sent so many people to accompany the guests.

In fact, the village cadres in the venue knew it well, and only when they were entertaining guests could they find a reason to hold a tooth-beating festival.

The food these people usually eat is not much different from that of ordinary commune members, except that they can eat corn nests every meal.

More than 20 people set up a total of three tables, which directly filled the entire kang.

There is no use of plates for serving dishes, and a clay pot is placed on each table.Pork vermicelli, stewed yams, scrambled eggs, and stewed sauerkraut are all put in it, standing out high.

The staple food is corn nests, plus millet porridge.

Speaking of it, this is considered a relatively good treat in the countryside.

Before the meal, Zhao Jianhai wanted to say something on the occasion, expressing his welcome and concern for the arrival of the educated youths.

It's a pity that all the educated youths had been on the road for nearly ten hours one after another, and they were famished by now, so they didn't have the time to listen to him.People didn't respond at all, just picked up chopsticks and started working.

Zhao Jianhai said a few words and saw no one was paying attention, so he could only shut up embarrassingly.

Filling his stomach, Wang Manyin did not continue to stay in the brigade headquarters, and left quickly after saying hello to the branch secretary.

In the dead of night, he was still 50 meters away from the door of his house when Da Huang heard his footsteps.

Then, the guy barked.

Immediately, it discovered that the person who came was the owner, and rushed down from the side of the field.

Seeing Wang Manyin, the earth dog jumped up and down around it, whimpering in a low voice, looking particularly aggrieved.

Really wronged this guy!

Wang Manyin left so suddenly in the morning that he didn't even prepare dry food for himself, let alone reserve food for Rhubarb.

Opening the cave door, he put a handful of corn grits into the soil dog's earthen basin, mixed it with warm water, and sprinkled a pinch of salt.

After the rhubarb was settled, Wang Manyin entered the space to check it as usual.

In just a few days, those newly hatched fry have grown to two or three centimeters long, and the general shape can barely be seen.He fished out a few at random and examined them carefully, and found that besides carp fry, there were quite a few crucian carp fry.

Carp fry did not have beards when they were young, and their appearance was very similar to crucian carp fry.But in Wang Manyin's view, there is still a big difference between the two.

The tail of carp fry is reddish, and the scales of the body are slightly yellow.The scales of crucian carp fry are whitish.

There is still more than a month before the Chinese New Year. Judging from the growth rate of those fish before, maybe these fry will be able to catch up with the sale before.

Calculated in this way, at least a few hundred yuan can be earned.
