Chapter 69 New Educated Youth
Li Ruolan saw Qin Wan got up and was about to take her home, but she saw Qin Wan looking at the mountain with a serious face.
"What happened?" Li Ruolan asked.
Qin Wan rubbed her eyes and said casually, "I don't know if it's my eyes that are blurry, but I seemed to have seen a few people on that hilltop just now.
But the distance is so far, maybe I am seeing things wrong."
Li Ruolan smiled and said, "Maybe someone went into the mountains to hunt. Let's go. We have picked enough mushrooms. Let's go back."
Qin Wan frowned and looked over there again before following.
Qin Wan's behavior was very strange, so it was definitely not someone who went into the mountains simply to hunt, she must have discovered something.
Li Ruolan narrowed her eyes. Although she didn't know whether this matter had anything to do with the cowshed, Li Ruolan felt that it would be better to reveal Qin Wan's discovery to Shen Yi and Ji Hongjun.
Perhaps this matter may be related to the mission of the two.
Deng Minghao and Lu Yunxiao still came back in the middle of the night. Li Ruolan got up as soon as she heard the noise.
"Did I wake you up?" Deng Minghao saw Li Ruolan sitting up from the bed, so he simply lit the kerosene lamp and took out the money from selling the clothes.
“That old man is quite capable, he sold four skirts for ten dollars each, and that’s because the fabric was not very good.
If the fabric was better, he said it could probably be sold for 13 or 14 yuan. He said the skirts you make have beautiful designs and will definitely sell well.
He said that next time when I have finished clothes, I should bring them to him and he would help me sell them for only 50 cents.
The shirt is four pieces, the pants are two pieces, and the two dark blue jackets are also four pieces.
Nowadays, a set of clothes in the supply and marketing cooperative costs about six yuan, so the prices of shirts, pants and the like are similar to those in the supply and marketing cooperative.
The price of the braid is a little bit higher, but the design is beautiful and there is no shortage of buyers. It seems that they can make more skirts and sell them in the future.
With so many clothes, I sold them for more than 70 yuan. The old man who helped sell the clothes took a cut of 50 cents from each piece of clothing, and made a profit of 6 yuan in total.
Most of the remaining money was used to buy fabric suitable for making skirts, and a piece of corduroy, which cost 30 yuan.
Of the remaining 40 yuan, Lu Yunxiao gave 20 yuan to Deng Minghao as Li Ruolan's wages for the period.
After Li Ruolan received the money, she told Deng Minghao what was wrong with Qin Wan today.
“Based on my many years of experience in reading novels, I always feel that something is wrong with this matter. When you go to work tomorrow, tell this matter to Shen Yiji Hongjun.
Those people in the bullpen may come from various fields, if Shen Yi and Ji Hongjun were really sent to protect these people.
Then these people must be talents in various fields, and the country values them very much, so they are sent to the countryside as a last resort.
It would be a pity if there is one less person like this in the future, so let’s help as much as we can.”
This is often written in novels, about assassinations by enemy spies. These people must have been forced to go to the countryside because they were reported.
So no matter what, these people are still alive, and they must be very helpful to the country. We must help them if we can.
Sure enough, after telling Deng Minghao about this matter, Deng Minghao also realized that something was wrong: “I know, I will tell Shen Yi and Ji Hongjun the news tomorrow.
We were originally thinking of going into the mountains to hunt, but it seems that we can’t go up the mountain until those unknown people in the mountain are dealt with.
You and Qin Wan are not allowed to go either. You are still pregnant. What if you encounter danger? You are not allowed to go up the mountain again."
Li Ruolan nodded: "I understand."
The next day, Deng Minghao went to work. Li Ruolan had just gotten up when she heard someone knocking on her door. She went to open the door and found that it was the team leader.
"Uncle Wang, what's wrong? Is there something wrong?" Li Ruolan asked in surprise, and then asked the captain to come into the house and sit down.
The team leader waved his hand and said, "I won't go in. I need your help with something. A few more educated youths will be coming to the village tomorrow.
It just so happens that you and Qin Zhiqing are not going to work, and when someone comes tomorrow, you two can help make the arrangements."
"So that's how it is. Okay, I understand." Li Ruolan nodded in agreement. It wasn't a big deal, just helping to arrange the educated youth.
The captain responded and turned away.
Li Ruolan went back to the house and had breakfast before going to Qin Wan's house. She then told her about the new educated youth that would be arriving the next day.
Qin Wan said, "There are three beds available for male educated youths and four beds available for female educated youths at the educated youths' camp right now. I don't know how many educated youths will arrive tomorrow. If there are too many, I guess we won't be able to sleep."
After Li Yingying and Li Ruoju got married, they moved out. Now, only Zhou Shengnan and Zheng Fanghua live in the east wing.
Guo Xiaoya moved out from the old educated youth's place, so there was also a bed there, making a total of four beds.
As for the male educated youth, Li Baoguo moved away after he got married, so he could squeeze out a bed, making three beds in total.
But the kang is so big that if there are more people, they can just squeeze in.
After that, the two of them started making clothes. They stopped to rest when they felt tired. There was no rush anyway, so they made two skirts that day.
When she returned home for dinner in the evening, Li Ruolan told Deng Minghao about the new educated youth who would be arriving the next day.
"Come if you want to, let's see what happens tomorrow. If they're hosting a welcome party for the new educated youth, they'll probably ask us to go back and eat together.
If you want to go, go. If you don’t want to go, just stay at home and I’ll make you something delicious.” Deng Minghao said.
The educated youth arrived at around two o'clock in the afternoon. There were eight new educated youth in total, four men and four women.
After handing these eight people over to Li Ruolan and Qin Wan, the captain left.
Li Ruolan smiled at them and introduced herself: "Hello, my name is Li Ruolan, and I am an educated youth who came here last year."
Everyone introduced themselves. Among the four female educated youth, judging by their clothes and appearance, two must have come from poor families, while the other two were definitely rich girls.
She was wearing a skirt and small leather shoes and carrying two suitcases. She didn't look like she was from the countryside, but rather like she was here for tourism.
"My name is Xia Zhen, and this is my good friend, Lin Changle." One of the rich ladies spoke first, and then introduced the girl next to her.
Hearing these two names, Li Ruolan said "oh" in her heart. In the original book, these two people were better than Li Ruolan and Deng Minghao. They were considered minor supporting characters with more appearances.
Because these two people developed feelings for the male protagonist Xu Tao after meeting him, but at that time Qin Wan and Xu Tao were in a hot relationship, so the two had some conflicts with Qin Wan and were considered two minor villains.
