A few days later, Gu Yunyang packed his bags and prepared to set off.
They were originally going to take an oxcart all the way to the city center, and then transfer to a bus to Guangzhou.
That way, we should arrive at our destination around night.
The Hongqi Brigade has oxcarts, and since they've finally produced two college students, the brigade certainly won't be stingy and will be willing to lend them out.
However, Hao Jianshe suddenly told them a couple of days ago that he was going to Guangzhou to discuss the supply of maltose.
The daily production capacity of the commune's sugar factory was far superior to that of the workshops in the Red Flag Brigade.
Now, all the brigades in Baishi Commune are growing sweet potatoes, and many of them are getting sweet potato planting permits from Hongqi Brigade.
Gu Yunyang's chestnut sweet potatoes have a high sugar content and a high sugar extraction rate.
Furthermore, the yield of chestnuts and sweet potatoes increased by several hundred kilograms per mu. After Baishi Commune learned about this, Hao Jianshe required all brigades to introduce varieties from Hongqi Brigade.
Although they have to spend some money to buy seeds, their increased yield means they can earn more money selling sweet potatoes to sugar factories.
So the other brigades didn't have any objections.
This is another sum of money that Gu Yunyang earned for the Red Flag Brigade.
Because the second-generation seeds of chestnut sweet potatoes can be planted again and saved for seed about two or three times, the yield will decrease after that.
At that time, we will need to buy seeds from the Hongqi Brigade again.
It's like a hen that keeps laying eggs.
The Red Flag Brigade was naturally grateful to Gu Yunyang.
Gu Hanping walked over and said, "Are you ready? We'll take you to the commune. It's a token of the brigade's appreciation for you."
It's not easy for two college students to emerge, so the Red Flag Brigade naturally has to show its appreciation.
However, Hao Jianshe will drive the jeep to take them there for the rest of the journey.
After thinking it over, the Hongqi Brigade dispatched an oxcart to take them to the commune.
Actually, Hao Jianshe wasn't forbidden from driving outside the Hongqi Brigade, but the Hongqi Brigade itself also needed to make a gesture.
Therefore, Hao Jianshe said that he would have his driver wait at the commune.
Gu Yunyang nodded: "Ready."
Then, Gu Yunyang handed the key to Gu Hanping: "The house key is yours, Captain."
"When you come over, you can help me check on things. When it's time to harvest the vegetables and sweet potatoes in the yard, you can take them home and eat them yourself."
Seeing that Gu Hanping was about to decline, Gu Yunyang said, "I'm going to university now, and the land at home is just sitting idle anyway. I reckon the drought won't start to subside until next year. There's still a great famine in the Central Plains, and I estimate we'll have to donate grain again this year."
Gu Hanping nodded, accepting Gu Yunyang's kindness.
The two of them came down carrying their luggage, a very large bag.
Gu Changsong asked in surprise, "You only have this much luggage?"
Gu Yunyang laughed and said, "It's not like we're not coming back. Guangzhou isn't far from here, we'll be back in less than a day. If we need anything, we can just come back and get it. Traveling light is convenient too."
How big is a Jeep? How much luggage can it carry?
If Gu Yunyang brings too many, Gu Changzhu should bring fewer.
Gu Yunyang said, "Captain, Aunt, if you two want to go, you can come along too."
Gu Hanping didn't speak, but his eyes clearly showed that he wanted to go there.
Although Gu Changzhu said that he was too old to need a ride.
With Gu Yunyang accompanying them, the two of them can go on their own.
But he clearly didn't consider that parents also have needs. When their child gets into university, what parent wouldn't want to visit the university?
Hao Pingping smiled and declined, saying, "Isn't that inappropriate?"
Clearly, she was willing to go.
