"Not long ago, my family called and said that the winter wheat in the village was basically gone. Last winter was too cold. The commune has issued a document asking everyone to work hard on spring sowing to ensure the production of other grains. In the future, wheat will only be planted for one season," Gao Yinghua sighed, "This year is another difficult year!"
"Calculating the time, spring sowing should have started. Without winter wheat, will there be enough grain to distribute by the end of the year?" Li Mengxue also asked.
Although her relationship with the villagers was not as good as Yi Qingqing's, she still had some affection for them, especially the aunties in the group who often helped her with work. Although they gave her centimeters, at least they didn't gossip about her. She still didn't want those familiar people to starve.
"Maybe we have to tighten our belts," Gao Yinghua said. "But this year it's not just Xiangshui Village. Seven out of ten winter wheat crops in the entire Northeast have been frozen. The public grain we pay this year may be slightly less. It's indeed more difficult than in previous years, but it won't cause starvation."
Yi Qingqing frowned, not knowing whether it was because the spring sowing had not been going on for long and the effect of the harvest talisman had not yet appeared, or because the talisman ash sprinkled in the septic tank did not play the due role. She could only continue to wait and see.
Time passed quickly as we ate and chatted.
After finishing the meal and clearing away the dishes, everyone prepared to leave, leaving some private time for Comrades Li Mengxue and Gao Yinghua.
Gao Yinghua has even fewer holidays than the students at Imperial Capital University. He basically has no fixed holidays. He has to ask for leave from the bureau in advance if he has anything to do. The reason why he is relatively free during this period is that he has just arrived and is still in the process of handing over his work and settling down.
He will start working officially tomorrow, and he will not be able to go to school to see Li Mengxue so frequently in the future. That is why they have been taking advantage of every opportunity to be together during this period of time. Li Mengxue also tries her best to take care of Gao Yinghua's time.
When Yi Qingqing and the others left the Public Security Compound, it was already around one o'clock in the afternoon, almost two o'clock. It was not a good time to go anywhere else, so they all planned to go back to school.
In the afternoon, Yi Qingqing spent the rest of the time with Yun Guyuan in the school library.
After the lights were turned off at night, Yi Qingqing checked the results of today's sign-in at the Public Security Compound.
The reason why she attached so much importance to this skill was that in the second half of 1978, which is the second half of this year, the policy of sending unemployed young people in cities to support the construction of new countryside was completely abolished. Young people in cities who could not find jobs no longer had to leave their hometowns to work in the countryside.
This seems to be a good thing, but it also causes some public security problems.
What can those unemployed young people who can’t find a job do? It will take several more years before self-employed businesses are allowed to operate!
There are only so many state-owned factories and shops, which cannot support so many people, so the number of unemployed people is naturally high.
Without a job and no source of income, but still having to survive, most people choose to go astray. Living on the black market is considered the best option. But those who steal, rob, and commit hooliganism naturally increase social instability factors dramatically, and public security becomes worse and worse, which leads to the strict governance that follows.
There are still several years to go, and there are bloody lessons behind every major case. Yi Qingqing doesn't want to become an unlucky victim.
She felt it was still quite dangerous and it would be best to have some self-defense measures.
Although she now has a portable space to back her up, when she thinks about the time when Li Mengxue was blocked by that group of people on the road and there was no shelter nearby for her to enter the space, she still feels it is quite dangerous.
Li Mengxue has the hero who cleverly saves the beauty, but Yi Qingqing doesn't dare to gamble on that luck.
Any skill that can increase the survival rate is a skill that Yi Qingqing must learn. How can she dare to talk about dying of old age if she doesn't even know some self-defense skills?
It’s not so easy to die of old age!
Besides, Mr. Li, who teaches hunting skills, said that she has a good physical foundation and is a martial arts genius. It would be a waste if she didn't learn it.
Taking a step back, who hasn't dreamed of kicking a gangster and making everyone look awesome?
Section 177
Now she has both the time and the conditions, as well as a good teacher. If she doesn't learn, it would be a shame for the merits she spent when she drew the golden finger. Merits are so hard to earn, so she must make the best use of them!
Therefore, before entering the practical skills teaching mode, Yi Qingqing had already prepared herself mentally, adjusted her mindset, and brainwashed herself to raise her interest. Interest is the best teacher.
As soon as you enter, you will see the training ground that you saw today.
However, in the skill teaching mode, it should be the transition between spring and summer, when everything is full of vitality.
Her teacher was a tough man with a square face who stood straight, wore a police uniform, and exuded righteousness.
Under his hawk-like gaze, Yi Qingqing stood up straight unconsciously.
"I am a practical skills instructor for police officers. The main items of this course are: 1. Language and posture; 2. Footwork and movement; 3. Move and dodge; 4. Self-protection; 5. Grappling control; 6. Wrestling control; 7. Bare-handed striking control.
First, let's test your physical fitness. Students, please take your seats!"
The instructor spoke in a loud voice, emphasizing every few words as he finished introducing the course.
Yi Qingqing was still thinking that this skill was signed out just right. Although it was a practical skill in the Public Security Compound, it was not related to firearms, but to fighting, which was just right for her. It was probably because the serious firearms training was not in the training ground in the compound!
As a result, the instructor saw that she did not react for a while, so he punished her immediately and made her run laps.
Yi Qingqing was a good student, but she had never met such a strict teacher since she started learning skills. She was frightened and went running obediently.
After running round and round, the instructor's frown was smoothed out by her running.
After eating the meatballs for three years, Yi Qingqing's body is stronger than a bull and her physical fitness is really good. When she ran the first few laps, it was like playing.
The instructor then kept training her, training her, and training her again, using all kinds of training until she was exhausted.
Military training is late but it’s here!
The instructor recorded all her physical data and carefully formulated a training plan for her without saying a word.
Exhausted, Yi Qingqing just wanted to ask: "Instructor, will the effect of my exercise be reflected in my external body?"
This was her first time exercising to this extent. If the training results in the skill teaching mode were to be synchronized to her body, she would have to give herself a massage today to clear her meridians to avoid pain tomorrow.
She had practiced in the hunting skill teaching mode for so long before, but she had never felt so tired.
"Practical police skills are closely related to physical fitness, so the changes in practice here will be reflected in the real body," the instructor said succinctly and also taught her how to relieve muscle soreness.
