If Jin Meng knew that his two older brothers were talking about him like that, he would definitely tell them that it was because he felt that the money he earned working was too little, and that he could earn more by simply going up the mountain.
He was never a very settled person. For him, the kind of life he wanted was one of honestly earning work points like his parents.
He enjoys an adventurous and exciting life. Even though doing business is prohibited outside now, he still wants to do business and even buy things from the other side of the river.
Of course, all of this was done behind my family's back. I was reselling goods from the other side of the river, and the profits on this side were huge.
This is because they are familiar with the area; if they weren't familiar with it, they might not be able to get to the other side.
After Tang Baozhu and the others left, it was getting dark, and the room was pitch black, so she quickly lit candles.
It's not that she doesn't have a flashlight; she even has interstellar flashlights, just more high-tech ones that can be solar-powered and can last for months on a single charge. She just finds it inconvenient to carry a flashlight around.
She casually stir-fried a bowl of bok choy, then took out a bowl of meat and vegetable dishes from her spatial storage. These were all things she had stocked up on before, as well as meat and vegetable dishes that Xu Rui from the modern world had packed for himself.
As for why this person was so kind to her, she wasn't a young girl. With a little thought, she knew that this person must want something from her, but she didn't know what he wanted.
After eating and drinking their fill, they went to the well to wash the bowls and chopsticks.
Tang Baozhu felt it was too troublesome to take the dishes and chopsticks to the well to wash every time, so she planned to go to the commune to buy a large water vat when she had time, or ask someone to bring one for her.
That way, we won't have to walk so far to the well. Although the well is in the yard, it's always better to walk as little as possible.
The food I ate for lunch today was taken from the small storage space. I need to be more careful in the future and try to take less food from the space. It would be safer to buy less outside and take the leftovers from the space and combine them together.
After smelling his own scent, he quickly locked the door and entered the small space.
He took a shower in the small space and then came out. During that time, he took a powerful pill, thinking that it would expel bad stuff, but unexpectedly, there was nothing there.
However, when using wood-type abilities, some impurities in the body are expelled.
This made her feel dirty for the past two days, as if she hadn't washed properly when she took a shower. At first, she thought it was strange, but later she realized that it was impurities being expelled from her body.
She didn't stay long. After cleaning herself up, she left the space, afraid that she would feel uncomfortable outside after getting used to such a comfortable environment.
Having prepared everything I needed for work tomorrow, I took out a small alarm clock from my spatial storage, set the time, placed it next to my pillow, and then lay down on the kang (heated brick bed) to sleep.
Now that it's summer, she has to start work at 7 a.m. during the day, so she has to get up at 6:30 a.m. at the latest. This is because she doesn't have to make breakfast. She's really not that diligent and just makes do with the food she has stored in her space in the morning.
The next morning, the alarm clock rang at 6:30. Tang Baozhu got up immediately upon hearing the sound.
She quickly turned off the alarm clock and put it away in the warehouse. She didn't know if alarm clocks still existed in this era, and if they didn't, it felt a bit excessive.
I grabbed my toothbrush and cup and went to the well to wash up. By then, almost everyone else had gotten up too. It seems everyone is quite punctual.
After washing up, I quickly grabbed some sunscreen from the warehouse and applied it to my face.
I don't know if it will work, but I think my wood-type ability will be more useful.
I think wood-based abilities should be able to eliminate those bad things.
I took some pastries from the warehouse to fill my stomach. There were also eggs and other things in the warehouse, but they all seemed to be raw.
Xu Rui had just traded it to me, and I put it in the warehouse, where it never saw the light of day.
If you have time in the evening, you can cook more. Since I arrived, this body has been getting better and better because of my superpowers, but it is still a bit weak. It should be better if I nourish it more.
After eating and drinking to their hearts' content, they locked the door, where others were already waiting.
Tang Baozhu went over and joined the others, waiting for the remaining people who hadn't come yet.
Once everyone has arrived, just follow Lao Zhi.
Anyway, Tang Baozhu wasn't familiar with this place, so as long as he followed the others and didn't do anything out of line, he would be fine.
The group walked for more than ten minutes, encountering more and more people along the way.
Tang Baozhu noticed that these people were pointing and gossiping about the newly arrived educated youth.
Although it seemed like there was no malice, and they might just be curious about the new educated youth, they still felt very uncomfortable.
They could only try to ignore the gazes falling on them, pretending not to know, and then follow the older educated youth to the place where tasks were assigned.
Everyone arrived at the same place, which looked like a warehouse. All the farm tools were there. Everyone had to sign for the tools they received, and the number of people working was also recorded there.
Tang Baozhu and a dozen other newly arrived educated youths were assigned to weed the fields instead of receiving any tools.
The person who distributed the farm tools was a village cadre, who was quite old, around fifty years old.
He looked so gentle and mild-mannered, but I never expected that he was also the scorekeeper. He said that because the newcomers were not yet used to farm work, he did not dare to distribute farm tools to everyone. In case someone cut themselves, it would be difficult to handle. He would wait until everyone was familiar with the work before distributing them.
Tang Baozhu didn't know if this statement was correct or not, but she just listened to it anyway.
Fortunately, she had prepared gloves in advance, and even a straw hat, which was given to her by Brother Xu from the modern world.
Back then, straw hats weren't as cheap as they are now; some tourist attractions even sold them.
It looks exactly like the ones the other villagers are carrying, but it's actually more exquisite.
At the very least, she noticed that some young girls kept secretly looking at the straw hat on her head, and even the other female comrades at the educated youth settlement seemed to really like it.
However, for the capable girls in the village, they could weave it after just a few glances.
What they lack is not skill, but creativity. I imagine that in a couple of days, many people will be wearing the same hat.
The person who assigned the tasks was Captain Jin, and then there were several squad leaders under him, because there weren't many people, just three squads.
Then Tang Baozhu discovered that the leader of her team was actually the older brother of Jin Meng, the man who had delivered firewood to her the day before.
