Bai Qingshan is gone.
On the way back, he kept thinking about what Qiao Jiuru had just said.
Why this country won't continue like this? Without knowledge, we will still be as backward as before, and backwardness will lead to suffering...
If other countries have been making progress and innovating in science and technology, and we have been stuck in this kind of farming life, in the future we can only use our money to buy things from others, and they are outdated and discarded by others.
Factories in the city are now facing the same problem: they have no technology or poor technology, so they have to pay huge sums of money to hire foreigners to repair their machines and buy spare parts, but those machines and parts will still be eliminated.
One day, the country will realize that this is not going to work and that it must change. By then, high school knowledge alone will definitely not be enough... So, we can only wait.
Bai Qingshan felt that what Qiao Jiuru said made a lot of sense. Although he was a farmer, he had joined the team and gained some experience outside. At the same time, he met many comrades from all over the world. In addition, a small number of their Bai family members worked in the city or in the team. As long as they listened more to the factory's talks about machines and technology, they would understand.
See the small.
Qiao Jiuru's subtext is to read more, knowledge is power. Just like the ancient scholars, how can reading be useless? ! Reading can change your family. Otherwise, how can there be a carp leaping over the dragon gate? ! Books contain a golden house, books contain a beautiful woman? !
The more Bai Qingshan thought about it, the more a fire burned in his heart. How could he not know? Why did so many people desperately want this place in the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers School? Because if you go to school, you will have a good job and a good future, and you can become a city dweller, and you don't have to work hard in the countryside.
Is there any need to think about it? !
Why do intellectuals like Qiao Jiuru, Professor Su Huaiyuan, and others look just like them? They know so much more than them.
As the saying goes, if you are not smart, just follow the smart people, at least you won't make mistakes. Maybe they can eat meat, and you can also drink some meat soup, isn't that good?
Bai Qingshan still remembers that he asked one question at the end: What will happen to the children of the production team if they don't use the quota for workers, peasants and soldiers to study in the future? ! Qiao Jiu only had one thing to say: read more, read seriously, study hard, and do your best to study.
Finally, Qiao Jiuru looked at him with a firm face and said, "Wait."
Then, he came back.
The Su family had been waiting to go back, so they didn't want this quota. So they naturally had to think about this quota.
After returning to his production team, Bai Qingshan went straight into the team headquarters, found Bai Lian'an's phone number, and quickly dialed it.
Less than a minute.
"Brother Qingshan, are you looking for me?!"
Fortunately, Bai Lian'an came back early today and just happened to receive this call.
"Lian An, it's like this, Su Huazhu..."
Bai Qingshan and Bai Lian'an were not shy and told him everything that happened during the phone call.
"Brother Qingshan, I understand what you mean. Whether this quota is used by one of our own or someone outside, someone in your production team will have objections. I think it's better for you to use it. If you want someone from the production team to use it, I will find a way to change the name. If the production team doesn't use it and replaces it, then someone else will find a way to change the name."
"Of course."
"In addition, this quota is equivalent to buying a job, or even better than buying a job. The future assignment will not be bad, and the work unit will not be bad. Moreover, if one person leaves, if there is a chance, he can pull others in. This is a way to make connections. But, Brother Qingshan, don't treat this little girl badly. This quota is earned by her life."
The two didn't say much on the phone, let alone their names. But Bai Lianan understood, especially when he heard that Bai Qingshan had already gone to see his father. If his father didn't object, then it must be Aunt Qiao's intention.
Therefore, Bai Lian'an solemnly told Bai Qingshan not to take it lightly, and not to think that they can take advantage of others just because they take care of them. This is life money, not other money.
Bai Qingshan understood.
When he left just now, Uncle Jiu also told him that the money for this quota cannot be less. After all, this quota for the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers School can make a person have a stable job for life. Who wouldn't rush to get it if it was taken out? ! Not to mention 2,000 yuan, someone would buy it even for 1,500 yuan.
After hanging up the phone, Bai Qingshan sat alone in the team headquarters, smoking and thinking.
He was still thinking about it until he got off work, until he had lunch, and even when he was lying down at noon.
In the afternoon, after the guys had gone to work, he went to the tree at the entrance of the village and found his father and several other great uncles, aunts, and uncles.
This was agreed upon this morning. After you have heard it clearly, we will discuss it again this afternoon.
"Comrade Qiao Jiuru said..., Uncle Jiu said this..., Bai Lian'an said this..."
Bai Qingshan deliberately didn't tell Qiao Jiuru what he said in detail. This was something Uncle Jiu had secretly told him. After all, if it got out, it would definitely have a bad impact and consequences on the Su family. People were able to speak these sincere words to them from the bottom of their hearts, so they couldn't be ungrateful for getting the benefit.
Uncle Jiu and Bai Lian'an didn't have so many taboos when they talked, so Bai Qingshan didn't cut it out.
"It seems that we should take the quota for the workers, peasants and soldiers to study on our own."
"I also agree that our people want it, and we can recruit our own people in the future."
"Okay, then choose a child with good character and good academic performance."
"Tonight, notify the 꺶 family to go to the ancestral hall for a meeting."
"Okay, I'll go and notify them one by one later."
…
This time, all the guys had the same idea and opinion. After Bai Qingshan got the OK, he went to notify the heads of each household.
After work, all the heads of households in the production team knew about the notice, but they didn't know what it was about and why they had to go to the ancestral hall for a meeting in the evening.
However, even if they had doubts in their hearts, they did not dare to ask. After all, generally speaking, unless it was a serious matter, they would not go to the ancestral hall. Over the years, everyone knew this truth, and they could not just spread it around.
Each household took the time to eat dinner, and then entered the ancestral hall together on time at 12:00 p.m. according to the prescribed time.
The ancestral hall of the production team in the mountain village is no longer an ancestral hall. It was nominally allocated to the fourth uncle and the tenth uncle to live in, but in fact it is still their ancestral hall.
There are only a few households in the village, not counting the educated youth site. So this time I came as the head of a household, that is, the one who makes the decisions in each family.
After the guys entered the ancestral hall, they consciously looked for seats and sat together with people they were close to.
All the respected elders in the village came and sat in front of them. In front of the older generation, no one dared to say anything, but became more curious.
Bai Qingshan stood behind the old men with a notebook and a pen in his hand, and then, at the signal of the old men, began to preside over the meeting.
"Comrades, the main reason for inviting everyone to come here for a meeting is because of one thing."
"What's going on?!"
"Qingshan, what happened again?!"
"Is everything ok?! There haven't been any problems with the production team lately."
“That’s right, I didn’t find any problem.”
"Could it be that we discovered something when we didn't know it?!"
"It's possible. Very likely."
…
Bai Qingshan had just finished speaking when the other guys couldn't help but start listening, their voices getting louder and louder.
Boom!
A gong sounded violently.
"Quiet, quiet, I'm about to speak, why are you interrupting me?"
"Stop talking, I'm going to start talking now."
"Everyone knows about Su Huazhu's brave fight against enemy spies, right? The superiors came down a few days ago to award her a reward and gave her a place in the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers School."
"Su Zhiqing came to me yesterday and told me that she didn't want this quota and would give it to the young people in our production team."
