Chapter 55: Business is booming and demand is in short supply



Because of what happened in the past few days, Shen Yuesheng hasn't gone to the black market with Gu Ye for a long time. He has been taking care of Chu Sheng at home or studying on his own.

Gu Ye came back and told her that the goods prepared at the black market were not enough, and he would take Shen Yuesheng there tomorrow to put some in the warehouse.

Also, the teaching materials on the black market and in machinery factories are selling extremely well, and demand is basically outstripping supply. People come to ask about them every day.

Shen Yuesheng knew that the books would be in great demand, but he didn't expect them to be so popular. He heard from Gu Ye that some of the books had even been shipped to other places, so he had to hurry up and print another batch.

But the printing factory didn't have that much paper, and it would take about a week to restock.

Shen Yuesheng and Gu Ye thought of many ways, and finally they could only call Mr. Gu and ask him to contact a batch of printing paper.

When Mr. Gu heard that it was his granddaughter-in-law who wanted it, he got it done that same day without saying a word.

It was rushed to Jiangxi County on the third day, and it took another day to print out the textbook materials.

Shen Yuesheng has earned nearly 20,000 yuan since the resumption of the college entrance examination. This is a considerable sum of money in this era. Shen Yuesheng is now richer than Gu Ye.

Shen Yuesheng always teased Gu Ye: "Sister will support you in the future, and you only need to be responsible for being beautiful at home."

Gu Ye was not annoyed, and indulged Shen Yuesheng very much: "Okay, then Shengbao will be responsible for making money to support the family."

After Shen Dashun's advice, the educated youth in the village also knew that Shen Yuesheng had the book, so a group of them came to find Shen Yuesheng.

They couldn't find all the books on their own, so they just held a meeting, led by Zhou Sinian, and Tang Yarou also followed.

Zhou Sinian: "Comrade Shen, I heard that you have a way to find some textbooks. We at the Youth Institute would like to exchange five sets of textbooks with you."

Zhou Sinian looked at Shen Yuesheng with gentle eyes, but Shen Yuesheng got goose bumps all over his body.

Shen Yuesheng: "You can talk to Gu Ye about this!"

After saying that, he slammed the door shut. Shen Yuesheng almost vomited when she recalled Zhou Sinian's murderous tone and the look in his eyes that he thought was full of tenderness.

Zhang Cuihua heard a snap and said, "Shengbao, what's wrong? What are those educated youth doing here?"

Shen Yuesheng: "They wanted to change some textbooks. I asked them to go find Gu Ye. They are all male educated youth. It is not easy for me to keep in contact with them."

Shen Yuesheng found an excuse.

I didn’t plan to say much to Zhang Cuihua. After all, Zhou Sinian had saved me last year.

Zhang Cuihua didn't ask any more questions and continued to flip through the dried vegetables in her hand.

Chu Sheng had been in Shenjia Village for almost a week. Gu Ye contacted Mr. Gu and told him everything in detail, including his own guesses and inferences.

Then, I asked Mr. Gu to contact Chu Sheng's grandfather. The final result was that Chu Suiliang asked Gu Ye to take care of Chu Sheng for a period of time. It was not safe in Taipei for a long time, so they did not plan to take Chu Sheng back. They also mailed a lot of bills and money.

In this way, Chu Sheng settled down in Shenjia Village, and told others that he was the child of Gu Ye's distant relative, who came to live with Gu Ye because of a change in his family.

The villagers felt sorry for little Chu Sheng and would occasionally give him some candy or eggs. He lived a happy life and became familiar with the Shen family. Even Shen Xuanwen had met him once.

After Chu Sheng and the others got to know each other, he became like a clingy, proud and noble young master. When he was noisy, he would pester Gu Ye and Shen Xuanwu to go hunting in the mountains. When he was quiet, he would read books with Shen Yuesheng. At a young age, he was very capable.

Even Shen Xuanwu was envious when he saw it, but there was nothing he could do, he still had to learn on his own.

Everyone in the Shen family went to the county to register on the last day, passed the political review by the village chief, and then took their materials to the county to get the registration form. The admission ticket was not issued until a few days before the exam.

The registration process went smoothly without any problems.

The weather gradually became colder, and the family started to buy winter clothes. Chu Sheng's winter clothes were made by Zhang Cuihua and drawn by Shen Yuesheng. The final product was very beautiful and Chu Sheng loved it very much.

In the last month or so, Lian Shen Xuanwen brought Ji Qingran back and sold all the work to acquaintances in the village, intending to concentrate on reviewing.

Shen Yuesheng also prepared a lot of information and questions, and everyone spent every day reading.

Many years later, when the people from the Shen family recalled this period of time, they were grateful to Shen Yuesheng, but that was a story for later.

Chu Sheng also knew that the matter was very important, and he behaved very well during this period. He read books every day and occasionally went out to chat with Zhang Cuihua.

Time passed slowly and the day of the college entrance examination arrived. Shen Yuesheng did not let everyone study anymore and prepared to go to the county a few days in advance. The family members began to help pack things and were extremely nervous.
