In the 1970s, the fate of a person from a high-ranking official family and a person from an ordinary family were completely different.
In this era, it was very common for children of high-ranking officials to be sent to the countryside to work for various reasons. Some of them were lucky and their families were rehabilitated, allowing them to return to upper class society, while others never had a chance to turn things around in their entire lives.
She didn't know which one Lin Wan belonged to, but with such a background, would she like Xiao Yue? Not necessarily.
"Thank you, comrade. I'll go back first." Shiya waved to the operator and left the communications department with a smile.
The operator's face turned even redder when she thought of what she had just said. Since Comrade Shi Ye and Captain Xiao had no relationship, then while she was staying in the Border Defense Corps, would he have the opportunity to elevate their comradeship?
*
After leaving the Communications Department, Shi felt refreshed. Since Tong Muzhen had agreed, she would definitely lend her the money. As long as she completed the task and got the title of "Female Goddess of Wealth", she would not be short of money and her life would only be better in the future!
She is fully capable of buying more houses and land before housing prices skyrocket, and becoming a real estate tycoon decades later!
She can also have start-up capital, and go into business in the 1980s and become a nationally famous wealthy businessman!
Shiya smiled happily as she returned from the Communications Department. It was almost afternoon and her stomach was rumbling.
But she was penniless now, without even a coat, and she was still wearing a thin coat. If she kept wearing it like this, she would catch a bad cold...
Shi also shuddered, thought about it, and prepared to go into the mountains.
The Northwest Frontier Defense Corps is right next to the snow-capped mountains. There is not much vegetation on the mountains, but there are many animals. Occasionally, members of the corps will go up the mountain to hunt rabbits, wild boars, and Tibetan antelopes to eat some meat. Some people with skills and courage go up the mountain to dig cordyceps, ginseng, and snow lotus. These can be exchanged for money on the black market and are very valuable. After all, they are all precious medicinal plants.
Alternatively, you can also exchange these medicinal herbs for work points. For the educated youth, clearing wasteland and grazing are daily routines, and venturing into the mountains is also an opportunity to increase income. However, there are many wild animals in the mountains, and many times, they cannot even come back alive.
In her previous life, Xia Yun made a solemn promise, but as a college student living in peacetime, she suddenly came to the northwest. She was chased by wolves and bears when she went up the mountain. She was so scared that she dared not go out. She almost put her heart into the regiment, into conquering Xiao Yue, and living with him. If Xiao Yue had not been disfigured and his life story was not exposed, the two of them should have been able to live together forever?
Shi was not sure, with Xiao Yue's hidden dark personality, would he really fall in love with someone?

Shi Ye was wearing an ill-fitting military coat, carrying a backpack on his back and using a crutch as he walked up the snowy mountain.
The great snow-capped mountain behind which the Northwest Frontier Defense Corps rests is called "Lianli Mountain". It has a very high altitude and from a distance it is an endless expanse of white. But halfway down the mountain, it is covered with dry yellow vegetation and rugged rocks. Further away, there is the magnificent and vast open grassland. The Northwest is really beautiful, with grasslands, Gobi and snow-capped mountains combined into one scene, which is a masterpiece of nature and breathtakingly beautiful.
Shiya put his hands on his hips and took a deep breath. If it weren't for the cumbersome military coat, he would have felt quite refreshed.
There was no other way. She borrowed her clothes from instructor Zhang Bin. If she went up the mountain wearing only a thin jacket, she would get a fever before she reached halfway up the mountain. The wind was strong on the mountain, so she didn't plan to go deep into the snow-capped mountains and planned to just play some wild games on the mountainside.
She has no money now and can't go to the cafeteria. She is forced to go there.
Of course, the main reason she dared to go into the mountains alone was because she was "as strong as an ox". With this ability, no man could match her. If she didn't go into the deep mountains and just tried her luck on the mountainside, there was a high probability that nothing would happen.
Not long after walking, Shi saw snow sprouts, one of the essential mountain products grown at high altitudes.
Once the business opened, good luck followed. She collected unique wild vegetables such as snow sprouts, monkey legs, prickly sprouts, etc. However, she didn't have a stove, so she could only give these things to the instructor in exchange for work points.
Shi also wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked up at the sky. It was already afternoon.
She weighed the backpack behind her. It was not heavy, but it was quite hefty. She also stretched her waist and prepared to go back.
The danger level of Lianli Mountain during the day and at night is completely different. No matter how skilled and brave she is, she dare not spend the night in the mountains. Moreover, she has not eaten for a day and is already starting to feel dizzy.
As soon as Shi turned around, he saw a big bird pecking at the ground not far away. It was earthy brown all over with stripes on its surface, and looked very fat. Shi couldn't help swallowing his saliva.
[Ding——Trigger event——]
[Climbing up Lianli Mountain alone, I encountered a snow chicken. Can I have a good meal with it? 】
[60% chance to trigger the snow chicken to fly away, return empty-handed, and exchange wild vegetables for sporadic work points.]
[——Complete this scenario, reward: The instructor's mercy, treat you to a meal.]
[30% chance to capture snow chicken. Go down the mountain and roast the chicken in front of the educated youth dormitory.]
[——Complete this scenario, rewards: envy, jealousy, and disgust of the educated youth.]
[10% chance to trigger luck explosion, catch snow chicken, find ginseng, dig it up and sell it. ]
[——Complete this scenario, reward: 1 scenario ignore ticket. ]
"Story Ignore Ticket?" Shiya was slightly surprised. She really didn't expect that such a small plot could actually reveal such a good thing. Just like the "Beauty System", she had also obtained "Task Cancellation Ticket" before.
The "Beauty System" is just like the "Random Plot System" in that it has a compulsory effect. If you fail to complete it, you will be punished.
"Plot Ignore Coupon", as the name suggests, allows her to randomly choose a task issued by the system and ignore it without being punished, just like the outrageous plot last time. If she had a "Plot Ignore Coupon", she would not have fallen into such a situation, and would not have offended Xiao Yue, the lunatic. With money, tickets and other things in her hands, she would not have gone up the mountain to dig wild vegetables.
Shi was also in high spirits. Looking at the snow chickens pecking at food not far away, he bent down quietly and picked up a few stones from the ground.
She was very strong and the stones were light in her hands, but they were perfect for hitting snow chickens.
Shiye held his breath, staring at the leisurely snow chicken, concentrating his attention and raising his hand.
"call out--"
The stone flew out with tremendous force and hit the snow chicken with a "crack".
The snow chicken was frightened and let out a sharp cry, then spread its wings, quickly left the ground and flew away.
Shi also looked up at the flying snow chicken and her eyelids twitched. As expected, she was not a skilled fighter who could shoot arrows without missing a target. She was also not like the heroine in the novel, who was possessed by a koi fish and could encounter good things by "sitting by the tree and waiting for the rabbit to come to her."
"Oh." Shi also sighed, resignedly took off the basket on his back and poured out all the snow sprouts inside.
She looked down, untied the rope around her waist, propped up the backpack with branches, made a simple bird-catching tool, and finally reluctantly took out a handful of fine rice from the grain bag she carried with her and sprinkled it under the propped-up backpack.
This was all the "asset" she had with her, and she dared not leave it in the dormitory. After all, there were more than 40 people living there, and it would be a huge trouble if it was stolen. She had no choice but to carry it with her. Fortunately, she was strong now and didn't have to worry about getting tired.
Nowadays, this doesn't come in handy.
The bird-trapping equipment is complete, and we are just waiting for the "snow chicken" to fall into the trap.
