Chapter 22: Show off your skills



The four people came out of the dormitory on the right and saw Zhao Xiangyang, Zhang Jianguo, Sun Rui, and Zhou Huaian waiting in the yard.

It seemed that they were moving faster and it was they who dawdled and delayed them.

Su Qingxue also saw the things they were carrying in their hands, or the bulges on their bodies, and she knew that they also had high emotional intelligence.

"Sorry to have kept you waiting."

Zhao Xiangyang is worthy of being the team leader of the educated youth site. He looks like a very cheerful person with excellent communication skills.

Anyone who can be a captain doesn’t have bad emotional intelligence.

"It's okay. We just came out too. I just saw you guys coming out from the back. Why did you choose the house in the back?"

"I just think there is a large open space behind the row of houses. I want to ask the captain if we can open a back door in the house and then directly fence off the space at the back, whether it is for growing vegetables or storing firewood."

Su Qingxue did not forget that the temperature here is normally minus 40 degrees Celsius in winter. If there is not enough firewood, there is no way to survive the winter.

The other male comrades also looked at Su Qingxue. They didn't expect that looking at the delicate Miss Jiao, they could actually think of this.

"We have our own private plots at the youth camp, 50 meters to the left. The land there is very large. There is no shortage of land in the Northeast. You can plant as much as you want. Everyone can get a large piece of land. But you have to plant the private plots you get and not leave them uncultivated. If you do, you won't get any next time."

Zhao Xiangyang felt that these female comrades were being unnecessary, but he did not say much. Some people were not used to eating and working with other people.

"Zhang Jianguo, which house did you choose?"

Zhang Jianguo smiled naively, "We also chose the room at the back, but not as many as you think. We chose that room purely because we think it's quieter. Plus, every room seems to have a stove, so it's nice for everyone to cook their own meals."

Zhao Xiangyang frowned. He had just advised these male educated youth that it would be better for them to have dinner together.

After finishing the work, I feel extremely tired and don’t even want to move. How can I have the energy to cook for myself?

But seeing that they didn't listen, and thinking that Ye Yunzhou and Gu Yuchu were the same, I simply ignored it.

However, he kindly asked the female comrades, "The male comrades are all prepared to cook by themselves when the time comes. Will you cook for yourselves as well?"

Wang Xiaomei, Feng Xue, Du Keqing and Su Qingxue looked at each other and saw in each other's eyes that they did not want to form a partnership with others.

After reaching a consensus, they nodded directly at Zhao Xiangyang, "Yes, we will all open fire on our own."

Zhao Xiangyang was not angry either, as he felt that the newly arrived educated youth were still too naive.

They will know after they suffer the consequences.

"Okay, the educated youth site is still very free, it's up to you."

As they walked and talked, they passed a large field on the road where villagers were working. Soon they saw the brigade headquarters they had just passed from afar.

Among the people working in the fields, there are always some who prefer to be lazy.

At this time, they looked at Su Qingxue and her group and began to whisper all kinds of gossip.

They were pointing and gossiping, and I had no idea what they were gossiping about.

Anyway, Su Qingxue and the others were still far away from the people working in the fields, so they couldn't hear or see anything.

They could only see a few blurry figures and could not make out their faces at all.

When we arrived at the brigade headquarters, the brigade leader Zhao Guoan was already waiting there.

Seeing them, he just nodded, and then said to the accountant on the other side: "Old Qian, please register them and give them this month's subsidy of eight yuan. I will go to the warehouse to get them food."

After saying that, he walked towards the warehouse.

"knew."

The accountant, Old Qian, was called Qian Xingjia. He took a look at the educated youth and started to take out a notebook to register.

No one spoke, just waited quietly.

After the accountant finished the registration, he took out a small stack of money from the drawer.

"Come and queue up to receive it. Each educated youth will receive a subsidy of eight yuan per month, but this is only available in the first year. By the time you reach the second year, you will no longer receive subsidies. You must work hard to earn work points, otherwise you will not be able to fill your stomach."

"Okay, thank you accountant for the reminder, we will definitely work hard to earn work points."

Su Qingxue was not in a hurry at all, so she lined up at the end. After everyone else had received theirs, she slowly went to get hers.

After receiving the money, I put it directly into my pocket. Although it is not much, it is at least to subsidize myself. I am very happy to get the money for free.

After Accountant Qian saw that everyone had received their gifts, he led them directly to the warehouse at the back.

When he left, he did not forget to lock the door of the brigade headquarters.

While walking to the back, he did not forget to remind Su Qingxue and the others:

"We mostly grow corn and wheat here. Wheat is a fine grain, so the share we get is relatively small. Only five kilograms of wheat is out of the 30 kilograms of food each month, and the rest is cornmeal. If you don't want fine grains, you can also ask for other coarse grains."

Cornmeal is considered a fine grain in cities.

It seems that having more land here is a benefit, as we don’t have to worry about not having enough food.

Su Qingxue felt a little excited when she thought about the fact that she had such a large space.

She wanted to buy more food and store it in the space.
