Chapter Fourteen Money and Tickets



As she turned around, she saw Chen Qing's resentful and dissatisfied look. Heh, the male lead is good-looking. When I was young, I did have a crush on such a sunny boy, but that was in the past. I don't like that kind of guy now.

Carrying a tattered bamboo basket, I arrived at the foot of the mountain. It was April, and the north side had just thawed, so there wasn't much to eat on the mountain. However, I did find quite a few dandelions and shepherd's purse, though they were still small.

Although she was hungry, He Wan couldn't bear to dig them out.

Behind Lizhuang Village stretches a large mountain, where in autumn, wild vegetables, wild fruits, wild mushrooms, and of course, many kinds of wild game grow.

In the book, Chen Qing used her dimensional system to acquire a lot of supplies and sold them on the black market.

To be honest, Chen Qing's system was much better than mine. My space was empty, and I had already eaten all three items on the shelf. The last bucket of instant noodles was also finished when I was starving.

In that house in the space, you can cook, take a shower, sleep, and use the toilet, but there's no food.

She still has to wait a month for the money and the tickets.

A week later, spring planting finally arrived. Spreading manure wasn't easy for He Wan, but loosening the soil and planting the crops were on a completely different level.

The brigade leader knew she was young and took good care of her, assigning her the task of sowing seeds. After sowing the seeds, she was to turn over some soil with her feet to cover them, and then gently stomp on them a couple of times to make sure the seeds weren't exposed.

This kind of work is usually done by teenagers. They can earn five centimeters a day. She was only fourteen years old, so she was treated like a teenager in the village. She could easily earn five centimeters a day.

Regarding accommodation, even when educated youth came one after another before, there were never as many as there are now.

The village chief and the Party secretary felt that, given this trend, there was no guarantee that more educated youth would not come in the future.

After discussing it, the leaders decided to build a row of houses for the educated youth behind the settlement.

Chen Qing certainly wouldn't treat herself unfairly; her family gave her over two hundred yuan when she came to the countryside.

Upon hearing that a house was to be built, she proposed to build a small house next to the main house for herself, and she would pay for it herself.

Once there was a first, there was a second. Qin Xuxiang and Xie Meihui discussed it and wrote a letter home. The two families pooled their money and each sent some money, which they used as their wedding house.

Seeing that she could have a single room by herself, Su Ranran also wanted one, but unfortunately she didn't have that much money. After thinking it over, she discussed it with Zhang Cuicao, and they each contributed twenty-five yuan to share a room.

Wang Xiaorong, Li Zheng, and Li Chunsheng, who had been thinking about this for a while, also built a house together.

When the team leader and the Party Secretary saw that everyone was contributing money to build houses, why should they build their own?

We built them, but we were also afraid that someone from the commune would report us, so we symbolically built two more rooms, so that when new educated youth came, they could choose where to live, in the front or back yard.

Of course, once the houses are built, the costs need to be recouped. Just like Chen Qing said, rent needs to be collected, and not everyone can afford to live in a single room.

He Wan watched them build houses one by one, feeling anxious, but unfortunately she had no money and could only obediently live in the dormitory.

During this period, nothing unusual happened at the educated youth settlement. Everyone was tired. Since they knew that the original owner was Chen Qing's control group, they avoided walking around the male and female protagonists these days.

So for more than a month, He Wan was working, while Yun Shudai was traveling. He Wan ate cornbread, while Yun Shudai ate all kinds of fancy meals.

He Wan slept in the house where the soil was crumbling, while Yun Shudai was in the air-conditioned room enjoying the air conditioning.
