"Can you become a millionaire by selling buns in a year? Is it so easy to make money out there?" asked the deputy captain in disbelief.
"That's because his buns are delicious. People in the city are very picky these days. Who would eat them without some real skill?" Yun Yan said with a smile.
"That's true. Tasty food will naturally attract a lot of customers," said the accountant.
After talking to them for a while in the brigade office, Yun Yan left.
While walking on the road, Yun Yan saw Hu Zi and his friends catching loaches, so she went up to them and said hello.
"Sister Yun, when did you come?" Hu Zi asked happily when he saw Yun Yan.
"I just came back with your grandma, Hu Zi, are you going to sell all these loaches and eels you caught?" Yun Yan said.
"Yes! Uncle Jianshe comes to collect loaches and eels every day, and he can sell them for 15 cents per pound!" Shi Tou said happily.
Now they can earn more than one yuan a day, and they don’t have to hand it over to their parents.
After chatting with Hu Zi and the others for a few minutes, Yun Yan bought another five kilograms of loaches from them, and then went to Xinyi's house with the loaches.
Yun Yan put the loach into a bucket to let it spit out the mud and sand, and planned to cook it in two days.
She made some food at noon. After lunch, Yunyan went to the team leader's house and asked the team leader's wife to buy two chickens, a duck and some eggs.
She went to buy some vegetables from Aunt Zhang again. When she was offered money, she tried to avoid it, but Yunyan insisted. This wasn't the first or second time. During the time she lived in the village, she probably had to buy vegetables from them. It would be unreasonable not to pay.
On the way back, Yunyan put a chicken and some eggs into the space. After returning to Xinyi's house, the two of them killed and dealt with the remaining chickens and ducks together.
Dinner was a chicken soup, a dish of stir-fried duck with winter melon, and a dish of stir-fried beans.
In the following days, Yunyan and Xinyi ate and drank in the village. Yunyan also took advantage of this time to collect a lot of chickens, ducks and eggs in the village and put them in the space.
In the blink of an eye, half a month passed and it was soon time for the college entrance examination results to be released.
Including Xinyi, there are a total of more than a dozen students in the village who are taking the college entrance examination this year. On the day when the results are released, the team leader specially asked someone to drive out a tractor to take all the students and parents to the county education bureau to see the results.
Fortunately, the tractor is big enough, otherwise how could it accommodate twenty or thirty people!
Everyone was nervous along the way, and it was quiet, with no one in the mood to chat. Soon, we arrived at the entrance of the county education bureau, where many parents and students were already gathered outside to check their grades.
Yunyan pulled Xinyi in and saw the red list posted outside. She quickly saw Xinyi's name. She had scored 547 points, the highest in the county!
"Xinyi, with your score, you will have no problem getting into either Peking University or Jiaotong University." Yun Yan said happily.
"Yeah, I didn't expect that my score this time would be better than the previous mock exam in school!" Xinyi said with a smile.
Then the two of them went to look at the admission score lines of various universities together. Xinyi's score was just two points higher than the admission score line of her first choice, Peking University!
"Sister Yunyan, this is too close to call. It's just two extra points. If I make a mistake on any question, I might not be able to get into Peking University!" Xinyi said with lingering fear.
"As long as you pass the exam, it's a good thing. Your admission letter should be arriving soon." Yun Yan said.
According to the practice of the past two years, university admission letters should arrive one after another one week after the college entrance examination results are released!
"It should be almost here. I heard that the admission letters from several prestigious universities were the first to arrive." Xinyi said.
The two then went to look for other people in the village, and found that in addition to Xinyi, three other people were admitted to university.
Those who passed the exam were overjoyed, while those who didn't cried bitterly! This is the life after the college entrance examination. Yun Yan asked Xinyi to go back to the Red Flag Brigade with the others to wait for the admission notice. She stayed in the county town and waited for Xinyi to get the admission notice before going to Beijing together.
After separating from Xinyi, Yunyan went to Wang Fang's shop. She wondered how her goods were selling.
"Yunyan, you are here. Did you go to see the college entrance examination results? How did Xinyi do?" Wang Fang asked.
"I did very well in the exam. I got 547 points, which is the highest in the county. It's just on the admission score line of Peking University!" Yun Yan said with a smile.
"That's really amazing. Our Red Flag Brigade has finally produced a top student from Peking University." Liu Jianshe said.
Last year, two students from Yang Brigade passed the college entrance exam, while none from Hongqi Brigade made it. As a result, Xu Changqing used this to mock Hongqi Brigade for a long time, implicitly saying that Hongqi Brigade had bad feng shui and that the villagers were therefore hopeless, which greatly angered the Brigade leader.
"This year the team leader can finally be proud of himself. Even if he has ten college students in the Yang Brigade, they are still not as good as the one Peking University student in our Hongqi Brigade." Liu Jianshe said proudly.
Everyone in China knows that Peking University is the most famous university, and those who can get admitted are the best of the best!
"Not only Xinyi was admitted to university, but two other families' children in the team were also admitted to university." Yun Yan said with a smile.
After hearing what Liu Jianshe said, Yun Yan couldn't help but laugh out loud. She didn't expect that after so many years, Xu Changqing was still fighting with the Red Flag Brigade!
"By the way, Yunyan, all those goods have been sold. Come in with me and I'll give you the money." Wang Fang said.
Yunyan followed her to the back, and Wang Fang gave Yunyan the money she had prepared long ago.
"I'm always worried when I keep so much money at home. Now that I'm giving the money to you, I feel relieved!" said Wang Fang.
Yun Yan said that after taking the money, she counted all the money in front of Wang Fang.
After more than 20 minutes, the counting was finally completed. After confirming that everything was correct, Yun Yan said, "I have counted all the money. Now we are even."
"And this three hundred yuan is what we borrowed from you last year. We're returning it to you today." Wang Fang took out another three hundred yuan and handed it to Yun Yan.
Yun Yan took the money, counted it, and put the dog and the payment into her bag after confirming that there was no problem.
"It's troublesome to count these ten-dollar bills. I don't know when the hundred-dollar bills will be available!" Yun Yan said, rubbing her hands.
"Yun Yan, what you said is a bit irritating. You complain that your hands hurt from counting money. Do you know how many people want to count money until their hands hurt like you?" Wang Fang said with a smile.
After having lunch at Wang Fang’s restaurant, Yun Yan went to the guesthouse and asked the waiter to book a single room.
A week later, Xinyi's admission letter finally arrived, delivered to her by the county magistrate and the commune director.
Because Xinyi was the first student in Jing County to be admitted to Peking University, she became a prominent figure in Jing County.
