It is faster to thresh rice at night because many of the rice grains are shriveled.
Although we finished work half an hour earlier than the night before, everyone had heavy expressions on their faces and the atmosphere was depressing.
Chu Yanyan followed Li Hexing and used a long three-pronged fork to spread the straw to the other side.
Chen Feiyang had a serious look on his face. He ran over and said to Chu Yanyan, "Chu Yanyan, come with me."
Chu Yanyan handed the long fork to Li Hexing and followed Chen Feiyang with a puzzled look on her face.
Li Hexing showed worry on his face as he watched Chu Yanyan and Chen Feiyang gradually walk away.
They came to the commune meeting room.
When Chu Yanyan came in, she found that Jiang Tiantian and the others had arrived. In addition to these educated youth, there were also seven or eight unfamiliar faces, some of whom had young faces, and some had mature faces.
After they all sat down.
The village chief said with a serious expression: "I believe you have seen the harvest this year."
Everyone was silent.
The village chief continued, "It's very unsatisfactory."
He stood, his hand on the edge of the table, his thick brows furrowed on his dark yellow face. "Although the branch secretary doesn't have time to come tonight, he already knows the content of my meeting with you. While there's still some time, I called you together because I want to seek your advice on something."
As he spoke, he looked at Li Zhiye beside him. Li Zhiye received the instruction and nodded to the village chief. Then he put down his pen and notebook and stood up.
"Well, we plan to purchase other high-quality millet varieties when we sow the seeds next year, and we need educated youth with agricultural knowledge to help us complete this task."
He paused for a moment, then continued, "The work points will be a bit more than normal labor. You can discuss recommendations or recommend yourself, but you must be truly talented in this area."
After he finished speaking, a heated discussion broke out in the conference room.
A thin young man raised his hand and then stood up. "I studied at an agricultural technical school here, but I studied flower and fruit cultivation. I wonder if I can study rice."
"Technical school? You are a student of a technical school, isn't that amazing?" The person next to him exclaimed.
Li Zhiye's eyes lit up when he heard this. He looked at the village chief and several other village cadres. After getting their eye contact, he looked at the young man:
"Although you're not suited to rice farming, you're suited to fruit cultivation. The village is just about to develop into a fruit tree business, and I didn't expect you to be such a talent in cultivation. We welcome you to join us!"
After loud applause, Li Zhiye asked the young man to come over to register.
Then the remaining educated youth were asked to express their own specialties.
Chen Feiyang was eager to try, but he looked at the bored Chu Yanyan and knew she didn't want to, so he asked Jiang Tiantian next to him, "Do you have any special skills?"
Jiang Tiantian looked at Li Zhiye, who was surrounded by people, and replied, "I have only a little education, and I don't know if I am qualified to teach children to read and write."
Chen Feiyang encouraged her: "You can definitely do it. You like children so much, and they like you too."
Jiang Tiantian turned her gaze back to Chen Feiyang: "Thank you, what are your specialties?"
Chen Feiyang was stunned for a moment, scratching his head embarrassedly: "I may have nothing, but if I can go back in the future, I will join the army."
"Come on!" Jiang Tiantian encouraged him.
"Um!"
Chu Yanyan sat aside, listening to their conversation and recalling the original owner's memories. He had only studied a few books, so agricultural knowledge was out of the question. He could only wait until the college entrance examination was reinstated.
Chu Yanyan thought so.
The system dismissed his idea: "Yanyan, I suggest you quickly tell us about your specialties and try to get an easy assignment. Get recognized by the villagers."
System: "Otherwise, when the college entrance examination was resumed, the number of places in the first year was limited. Each village might only have two or three, and the village quota would only be given to those who had made contributions to the village. Because of their contributions, it was natural to give them a quota. The lazy educated youth would not be able to get one."
Chu Yanyan became serious the moment he heard this. After a moment's thought, he said, "But it seems I don't know how to do anything except growing radishes..."
After he finished speaking, he understood instantly. Without waiting for the system to speak, he stood up and said, "I know how to grow vegetables. I can guarantee that the vegetables I grow will be big and sweet."
Li Zhiye looked at Chu Yanyan and nodded: "Okay. Which team are you on and what's your name?"
"Team 3 Chu Yanyan."
Because there are too many people who want to register, everyone is very enthusiastic, and it is difficult to determine whether some of them are real or fake.
Li Zhiye told the registered educated youth to go home and that those who had not registered would wait. The specific results would be announced later.
Chu Yanyan walked out of the conference room. Li Hexing had been waiting outside for a long time. Seeing Chu Yanyan finally come out, he wanted to go up to her, but when he saw the people behind him, he stopped and stood there waiting for Chu Yanyan to walk towards him.
Chu Yanyan glanced around, determined Li Hexing's location, and walked towards him. He grabbed Li Hexing's arm and said, "Brother Xing, let's go home."
