Chapter 1091 Crazy Effort
Over the next few days, Zhou Ziwen's life didn't change much.
The only change was that he began to slowly deal with the family's belongings.
For example, the meat and some dry goods stored at home, including the chickens, ducks and geese raised.
He took these things to the black market and sold them one after another.
As for this home, he definitely can't take it away.
But given his status in Dabazi Village, the production team would definitely not take it back.
Most likely it will be kept for him, after all, this is his second home.
After a few years, when transportation is more developed, he can come back from time to time to live for a while and experience rural life.
At the production team, the autumn harvest has been completed, and they are currently drying the grain in preparation for paying the public tax.
After the public grain tax is paid, the remaining part will be kept in the production team warehouse as a reserve, and the rest will be distributed to the villagers.
In addition to distributing food, money will also be distributed.
This year is another year of great harvest, and everyone can have a prosperous year.
Time quickly came to October 21, 1977.
On the same day, the People's Daily published the news "Major Reforms in College Admissions", marking the official announcement of the resumption of the college entrance examination.
Although information was not easily circulated in that era, such big news was spread by word of mouth and spread among each other. Even in the countryside, they heard the news.
When Zhou Ziwen heard the news, he felt both excited and emotional.
He knew that this was a great opportunity to change his destiny and it was the moment he had been looking forward to for many years.
He immediately summoned Chen Qiaoyi, Chen Shiying, Zhou Chaoyang, Shen Zhaodi, Tang Yaoyao and others.
Everyone gathered together, their faces filled with irrepressible joy.
Zhou Ziwen took a deep breath and said, "The college entrance examination has resumed. The opportunity we have been waiting for has finally arrived. Everyone has been studying hard these days. Now we must strengthen our confidence and go all out to face the college entrance examination."
Everyone nodded, their eyes filled with determination.
Of course, Wu Dagang and the team leader in the village also knew the news.
When they heard the news, their faces didn't look very good.
Because they had a premonition that Zhou Ziwen was about to leave.
Wu Dagang and the team leader looked at each other, their eyes full of reluctance and worry.
They are well aware of Zhou Ziwen's importance to Dabazi Village. He has brought so many changes and developments to the village over the years.
The team leader sighed and said slowly, "With Ziwen gone, our village has lost a pillar. His ideas and techniques are the key to our village's development."
Wu Dagang nodded slightly, his expression solemn. "Yes, but this is also a good opportunity. The children can have a better future, and we should be happy for them. But it's inevitable that I feel a little uncomfortable."
The two were silent for a moment, then Wu Dagang pulled himself together and said, "No matter what, we have to get the village affairs in order before Ziwen and the others leave. We can't let everything get messed up just because they're leaving."
The team leader agreed: "That's right, we must hurry up and finish this year's work so that Ziwen and the others can take their exams and pursue their futures with peace of mind."
In order to confirm whether Zhou Ziwen would take the college entrance examination, Wu Dagang specially found Zhou Ziwen and had a chat with him.
"Ziwen, have you been waiting for this day for a long time?" Wu Dagang is not a fool.
Zhou Ziwen had many opportunities to return to the city before, but he chose to stay in the countryside.
What's more, Wu Dagang also had some vague guesses about some of his actions during this period.
Zhou Ziwen looked at Wu Dagang, smiled slightly, and said frankly: "Uncle Wu, to be honest, I have been waiting for this opportunity."
"I want to learn more knowledge through the college entrance examination and contribute to my country."
With the resumption of the college entrance examination, many policies will change.
In a few years, individual business will no longer be speculation.
He plans to study first and then prepare to open a factory.
In his previous life, his country was strangled by various obstacles, which made him feel deeply saddened.
In this life, with his knowledge and skills that are ahead of his time, he wants to make a name for himself in the industrial field and lay a solid foundation for the country's development.
Wu Dagang listened to Zhou Ziwen's words. Although he felt reluctant, he also admired his lofty ambitions. He nodded and said:
"Ziwen, your idea is very good. You are an ambitious child, and your uncle supports you. Just focus on preparing for the exam, and we will take care of the village affairs."
For a period of time afterwards, the educated youth devoted themselves to reviewing for the college entrance examination.
They searched everywhere for review materials, shared their learning experiences with each other, and immersed themselves in the ocean of knowledge every day.
They all want to return to the city. They didn't have the opportunity before, so some people started to give up, but now the opportunity has come, everyone is working hard and wants to seize this opportunity to change their destiny.
In order to review better, Zhou Chaoyang squeezed out all the time he usually used for playing.
He gets up early every day and recites Chinese texts and English words. He looks so serious as if he wants to engrave every piece of knowledge into his mind.
When he encountered a difficult math problem he didn't understand, he no longer gave up easily like before. Instead, he pondered over it over and over again, and took the initiative to ask Zhou Ziwen for help, insisting on figuring out the solution.
Shen Zhaodi also put away her usual carefree nature and became extremely serious.
She would do exercises every night under dim light. When she encountered mistakes, she would carefully mark them with a red pen, then carefully analyze the reasons for the mistakes and summarize the solutions.
She also often discusses liberal arts subjects such as politics and history with Chen Qiaoyi and Chen Shiying, asking each other questions and supplementing each other's knowledge points.
Although Tang Yaoyao is young, she is not willing to be outdone.
She has a good memory and a unique advantage in reciting, so she took the initiative to take on the task of helping everyone remember.
She compiled some important knowledge points into mnemonics to make it easier for everyone to remember.
At the same time, she also worked hard to overcome her weaknesses in science. When she encountered difficulties, she encouraged herself with a firm belief:
"I must get into university, leave Dabazi Village, and see the outside world."
The educated youth in the Youth Academy were also working hard, and because they had lost their knowledge long ago, they worked even harder.
They know very well that this college entrance examination opportunity is rare, and if they miss it, there may be no chance to change their fate.
In order to have more time to study, some educated youth only slept two or three hours a day and spent the rest of the time studying hard.
They turned every corner of the Youth League Institute into a place for study. Whether in the yard, the corridor or the room, you can see them studying hard.
Those educated youth who once disdained learning have now picked up their books again. Although learning is very difficult at first, they persist with their tenacious perseverance.
They encourage and supervise each other, creating a strong learning atmosphere.
