Chapter 43 Huaihua Machinery Factory 1
When Xingjian woke up again, he stared at the thatched roof covered with spider webs above his head in a daze. Why didn't he return to the system world, but started a new small world directly?
The thatched house of dozens of square meters can be seen from the end at a glance. There are a few crooked benches and a wooden table in the house, and no other furniture.
Xingjian propped himself up and suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head. He raised his hand and touched his head, feeling a circle of gauze. It seemed that his body in this world had just been injured.
Before Xingjian could figure out the situation, a series of unfamiliar memories suddenly flooded into his mind.
This small world takes place in a period when technology was not so advanced. It mainly tells the story of a group of small town workers' struggle to get rich in the 1980s.
The protagonists of the whole story are not just the male and female protagonists. This group of young people from small towns are all tough and fearless of hardships. They eventually make a name for themselves in this era.
Of course, this is the normal course of events in this world. However, because the villain has turned abnormally evil, he set fire to the factory dormitory and blew up the machinery factory. More than one hundred workers in the factory dormitory, including the protagonists of the entire story, have lost their lives.
A screen appeared out of thin air in front of Xingjian's eyes, and the scrolling text on it explained the mission of Xingjian's world: to reduce the villain's blackening value and prevent the factory dormitory from being burned down.
Xingjian's role in this world is an inconspicuous cannon fodder in the whole story. His original name was Xingjian, an orphan from Niuhu Village. He grew up eating at other people's homes and had a solitary personality.
After graduating from junior high school, he did odd jobs to support himself.
Until one day, the son of the director of the machinery factory accidentally broke the original owner's head. The village chief of Niuhu Village brought a group of villagers to the factory gate to demand an explanation. Only then did Xingjian have the opportunity to work in the factory.
There is no information about this villain on the screen. The only information is that the villain will burn down the staff dormitory and blow up the machinery factory in the summer of a year.
Xing Jian looked at the screen in front of him and waved his hand, and the screen disappeared from his sight. This was the host hosting mode set by the system world when the system temporarily left. Could something have happened in the system world that caused 004 to leave this hosted robot here?
Xing Jian's heart sank, but there was nothing he could do now. The most urgent thing was to find the villain and complete the mission.
"Brother Xingzi, you're awake." Suddenly, a little boy in patched clothes poked his head out of the broken window. His hair was messy, his face was shaky, and there were two lines of yellow snot hanging under his nose.
Xingjian nodded. He did not have all the memories of the original owner, so he could only cautiously guess the identities of himself and the young man in front of him.
"Brother, it's good that you woke up. Village Chief Niu has done a great thing. The village chief said that if this thing succeeds, Brother Xingzi, you can go to work in the machinery factory and be a worker. At that time, I, Goudan, will be Brother Xingzi's strongest follower!" The young man named Goudan patted his chest and assured Xing Jian.
I only have one year for this mission. During this year, I not only have to find out who the villain is, but also reduce the villain's blackening value, and prevent the villain from detonating the factory. Each of these three things is not easy.
The most urgent task is to quickly get a job in this machinery factory. After hearing Goudan say that Village Chief Niu and others have already gone to wait at the door of the machinery factory, according to the original plot, he should be able to get the opportunity to enter the factory soon.
Xingjian always felt a little guilty about letting a group of villagers stand up for him, so he wanted to get up and go to the machinery factory.
So, Xingjian held on to the wall and was about to walk outside.
This action scared Goudan. He quickly climbed in through the window and reached out to support the staggering Xingjian: "Brother Xingzi, lie down quickly. The town clinic said you need to rest and can't get out of bed. Go back quickly."
As the two were talking, there was a sudden loud commotion outside the door. Hearing the sound, Goudan looked out with his eyes wide open and said excitedly, "Village Chief Niu and the others are back. They must have made arrangements for you."
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of people rushed into Xingjian's small thatched hut. The leader was a man in blue work clothes. He patted Xingjian on the shoulder with a smile on his face and said, "Xingzi, now you have a job. You don't have to live in a thatched hut anymore. It's much better to live in the staff dormitory of the machinery factory. Hahahaha."
A hearty laugh echoed in the room. Xingjian guessed that the man in front of him might be the village chief Niu that Goudan mentioned.
"Uncle Niu, can I go with Brother Xingzi?" Goudan sneaked aside and said.
Then the village chief rolled his eyes at him, "Why are you going? Pay attention and study hard. You haven't even grown all your hair yet, and you're still trying to learn how to work. Go play somewhere else, and don't offend your brother Xingzi here."
After being scolded, Goudan walked out of the room in shame.
The villagers in the room all chimed in, saying, "Xingzi, just lie down and wait for the work to start."
"If anything happens to Xingzi, we in Niuhu Village will not be easily offended."
"If you ask me, Xingzi should move to the staff dormitory and rest now. Look, Xingzi's house is full of leaks. How can she rest well?"
The villagers were talking to each other and the whole thatched hut was noisy. Perhaps the original owner's head injury had not yet healed. Listening to the chatter of these people in front of him, the wound on his head began to hurt.
Village Chief Niu looked at Xingjian's pale face, frowned, and shouted to everyone, "Alright, alright, everyone, go back first. The doctor at the clinic said that the head injury requires rest, so everyone, go back first."
After hearing what Village Chief Niu said, everyone fell silent, said goodbye to Xing Jian and left the thatched hut.
"Thank you, Uncle Niu." Xingjian followed Goudan and called out to the village chief Niu in front of them.
Hearing the long-lost uncle, Niu Daqiang was stunned for a moment, and gently touched Xingjian's head, "Silly boy, take good care of yourself and work hard in the machinery factory. You must be worthy of your deceased parents."
When Village Chief Niu left the thatched hut, Xing Jian was the only one left in the house.
The long-lost tranquility returned, and Xing Jian sighed. Although he promised Village Chief Niu to take good care of his health and report to the factory in a few months, his mission could not wait that long.
After recuperating in this thatched hut for three days, Xingjian asked the village chief Niu to go to work in the factory immediately. After his repeated assurances, Xingjian got on the only ox cart in the village and headed for the town.
Huaixiang Town is famous for its locust flowers. The ox cart moved slowly forward. There was a row of locust trees planted on the roadside. Xing Jian, holding a grass core in his mouth, lay on the ox cart and stared at the locust flowers along the road, thinking: How fragrant this road would be when they bloom.
