Chapter 102 Restored
He Chuan first found the only rural credit cooperative under the Bank of China in the town and deposited all his money in the bank. After some time of speculation, He Chuan's net worth plus Su Tao's money was almost 10,000 yuan. A household with 10,000 yuan was considered a lot of money in that era and was considered a huge sum of money.
The largest denomination of money these days is still a ten-thousand-dollar note. Carrying ten thousand yuan on your person would be like carrying a sack full of it, making it incredibly inconvenient. Fortunately, there are banks now, but they're quite limited: the People's Bank of China, which also has credit unions and other credit cooperatives under its umbrella.
He Chuan usually deposits his money in the bank first, and then goes to the local bank to withdraw the money to pay when he needs to make a purchase.
Time passed in busy work and study, and October came in a blink of an eye.
In the golden autumn season, the sky is clear and the air is fresh, with a cool breeze.
Su Tao was busy calculating expenses in the village office when the village loudspeaker suddenly blared: "Science and Education Cooperation Symposium...Change the existing recruitment method and resume the G-level exam starting this year."
Su Tao's pen fell on the table. Did it recover? Finally recovered. She could return to the city for the college entrance examination.
There were bursts of cheers coming from outside, and one could vaguely hear words like, "Recovered, that's great, long live!"
Hu Xiao rushed in from outside and shouted excitedly, "Taotao, did you hear that? The G-school entrance exam has really been restored. Farmers, educated youth who went to the countryside or returned home, demobilized soldiers, cadres, and recent high school graduates can all voluntarily register, take the unified exam, and be admitted based on merit."
Hu Xiao grabbed Su Tao's shoulders and spoke incoherently with excitement. Although Su Tao had previously revealed that G exams might be restored, he was still very excited when he really heard the news.
Su Tao looked at Hu Xiao silently. She understood their feelings. Su Tao was lucky enough to have known the news long ago, but Hu Xiao and the others were different. The moment they went to the countryside, they had already made up their minds to stay there forever, like endless darkness with no idea when the dawn would come.
Su Tao looked out the window at the flaming sunset glow, his thoughts reaching far into the distance. "He Chuan, did you hear that? This day has finally arrived!"
At this time, He Chuan was at a transit station on the road, holding a "Daily News" in his hand, staring blankly at the shocking news in the newspaper, with no expression on his face, only his slightly trembling hands could show his excitement.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Dashi noticed that something was wrong with He Chuan.
"The G test has recovered!" He Chuan murmured.
"What? Really recovered?" Jiang Dashi jumped up excitedly, forgetting for a moment that he was sitting in a truck. His head hit the roof, but he didn't feel any pain.
"That's great, then you can all go and take the college entrance examination." Jiang Dashi shouted happily.
"Yeah." He Chuan looked into the distance, wishing he could fly back right now. He had finally waited for this day. He had already made preparations: the college entrance examination and returning to the city.

He Xinyi has been having a hard time recently. Ever since she moved to Wang Laizi's house, Wang Laizi was nice to her for a while at the beginning. He was not gentle and considerate, but he didn't make things too difficult for her either.
Unfortunately, the good times didn't last long, as his true nature was exposed over time. Wang Laizi was generally idle, and he worked for three days and slacked off for two days, often with no credits. The family was short of food and clothing, and He Xinyi often went hungry.
