In just three months, Su Mingzhe made more than 8,000 yuan through hunting.
This does not include the meals provided by Su Mingzhe to more than 30 students and four other educated youths.
If all were counted, even ten thousand yuan would not be enough to buy it.
It was so much money that the old village chief was a little moved when he saw it.
But Su Mingzhe didn't care. He got it in the front, but he spent it in the back.
Su Mingzhe used more than one thousand yuan to improve the school's situation.
For example, uniform tables, chairs and benches were purchased, and uniforms, red scarves, homework books, pencils, stationery, etc. were distributed to students.
In addition, Su Mingzhe spent more than 2,000 yuan to help the village purchase a batch of agricultural supplies, such as hoes, shovels, shovels, sickles, sledges, insecticides, weedings, rodent control chemicals, etc.
In addition, Su Mingzhe also asked Director Yang for help and asked him to arrange some red bricks and cement next year to rebuild the school's classrooms.
The original classroom was really dilapidated.
It leaks wind in winter and rain in summer.
It was just the end of October, not yet entering the cold winter. Three female educated youths were standing on the podium giving lectures, with chilblains on their hands and faces.
Every child has frostbite on their face, hands, and even feet and legs.
Su Mingzhe believes that he must do something for them.
"Village Chief, I'm here this time because I have something else I need your help with."
Su Mingzhe stated his purpose of coming.
It's only the end of October, and it's already snowing heavily in Mulan County.
In November, if there is another heavy snowfall, the connection between the village and outside the village will be even more difficult.
Su Mingzhe wanted to take this opportunity to return to Jichun City and visit his family.
After hearing this, the village chief showed a look of embarrassment on his face:
"Su Zhiqing, it doesn't matter to me, but if you want to ask for leave to go home, that means you have to return to Jichun City from the Songhua River area. In this case, you need to go to the county's educated youth point office to get your stamp and signature, otherwise you will be caught. That's a violation of the rules."
"Village Chief, this is what I think. The certificate does not say asking for leave to go home. Let's put it another way."
Su Mingzhe's mind was very flexible, and he immediately expressed his plan:
"Winter is about to begin, isn't it? Please give me a certificate here. It states that the purpose of the village sending me out is to adjust supplies and purchase medicines. This way, even if someone sees me, I can't say anything. , do you think this is true?"
"You scholars are still smart."
Seeing that Su Mingzhe was talking about this, the old village chief thought that Su Mingzhe and his four educated youths had done so many things for the village, so he couldn't continue to refuse.
Immediately, the two went to the village branch to get the certificate ready.
After Su Mingzhe got the certificate, he went back to school without delay and told the other four people the good news.
Su Mingzhe did not enjoy this opportunity to go back alone, but planned to go back with another person.
In order to show fairness in the selection of candidates to go back, Su Mingzhe planned to draw lots to determine another opportunity to go back with him.
After the other four people got excited and faced Su Mingzhe's fair arrangement, they quickly selected them.
Xu Kai drew the first indicator to go back. ….
The other three people returned home in order of Wang Quan, Wang Yafang and Yu Hong.
The order of going home was decided.
Su Mingzhe began to go hunting in the mountains, trying to leave more food for the school for the winter.
Fast forward five days later.
Although the snow on the road has not yet melted, it no longer affects carriage travel.
Su Mingzhe took Xu Kai and more than 20 beautiful bear skins, tiger skins, and deer skins, and asked the old village chief to drive a carriage to the county seat.
After making an agreement to pick them up next Saturday, the old village chief hurried back to the village.
It's winter now, and once it's night on the way back to the village, you'll encounter wild beasts coming out to look for food.
The old village chief’s trip this time
, with a shotgun on him.
After seeing off the old village chief, Su Mingzhe took Xu Kai to the Educated Youth Office and found Director Yang.
Director Yang didn't act like a bad person. He stamped the document very neatly and even helped make a phone call to the forestry farm.
The forestry farm was also very considerate. They told me on the phone that there would be a convoy delivering goods to Jichun City at noon.
But if you want to come back, you have to wait for the convoy next Friday.
Su Mingzhe had already inquired about this information, so he just asked the old village chief to pick him up next Saturday.
Su Mingzhe and Xu Kai took the animal skins directly to the forest farm again.
When we arrived at the forest farm, the truck convoy prepared a position.
(Because each truck has two drivers and there is no extra space in the carriage, Su Mingzhe and the two can only sit in the pockets of the truck.)
In fact, for the two of them, it doesn't matter where they sit, as long as they can return to Jichun City.
Although it had just snowed heavily and the wind was howling.
But Su Mingzhe brought more than 20 animal skins. With all the animal skins wrapped around his body, the two of them would not feel cold at all.
At around four o'clock in the afternoon, the convoy arrived at Jichun City, where it was already dark.
Su Mingzhe first asked the driver's help to take Xu Kai home, and then took him home.
Jiang Cuiping and Su Mingxue were both very happy to see Su Mingzhe suddenly come back.
The family had only been busy for a few minutes when a neighbor who worked at the street office came over to inquire about the situation.
As an educated youth who goes to the mountains and countryside, if you go home privately, you will be punished.
Su Mingzhe didn't hide anything and just took out the certificate issued by the village.
"Aunt Jin, I came back this time to do errands on behalf of the government so that I could stay at home for a few days. Here is the certificate and the stamp from the County Educated Youth Office. If you still don't believe it, you can give it to the Mulan County Educated Youth Office. Director Yang is calling."
Aunt Jin took the letter of certification, looked at it carefully, and confirmed that the official seal was authentic, then she said with a smile:
"Mingzhe is so important in Mulan County. Auntie is really happy for you and your mother. Auntie won't disturb your family reunion."
Aunt Jin said, smiled and waved her hand and left.
At this time, Jiang Cuiping suddenly remembered and asked:
"Son, what are you doing for the government?"
"Another comrade and I were ordered to go out and purchase some supplies."
Su Mingzhe showed the certificate to his biological mother, Jiang Cuiping.
Jiang Cuiping asked her son how long he could stay at home. When he heard that Su Mingzhe would have a car to go back next Friday, she continued to be happy and prepared to cook dinner for her eldest son. ….
At this time, Su Mingzhe took out a few pieces of processed bacon from the package:
"Mom, this is the roe deer meat I hunted in White Tooth Mountain. Let's eat this at home tonight."
"Okay, listen to my eldest son."
Jiang Cuiping doesn't talk too much.
She has been a worker for so many years, and she also has a strong energy in her body. She is not like ordinary housewives who are nagging about mother-in-law and mother-in-law.
"Brother, did you bring back bacon?"
Su Mingxue rarely eats meat a few times a year. Now that he saw a few pieces of bacon, he wanted to pounce on it and take a few bites.
"Brother, you don't know, our mother has been saving all the meat tickets in the past few months, saying that she will wait for the Chinese New Year to see if you come back. If you come back, then we will make meat dumplings to eat."
"If you want to eat meat-filled dumplings from now on, you don't have to wait until the Chinese New Year."
Su Mingzhe was somewhat moved after hearing this. He came to the kitchen and preached to his mother:
"Mom, the Baiya Mountain is right next to Xiaoxinan Mountains. There are many small animals in it, such as rabbits, roe deer, mountain deer, and muntjac. When I go into the mountain with the hunters in the village, we can harvest a lot casually. We are short of meat. You and your little brother are at home. If you have meat tickets, you can use them yourself."
"I understand, you should take a shower first, you are all smelly."
Jiang Cuiping didn't want to listen to her son's advice, so she pushed her son to take a bath in the bathhouse quickly.
go.
"Okay, I'm going to take a shower first and I'll be back in a minute."
Su Mingzhe and Xu Kai hid in the car pockets and wrapped them in animal skins all afternoon. Their bodies were filled with the smell of animal skins. He couldn't stand it if they didn't take a shower.
After grabbing clothes, soap, and towels and going out, Su Mingzhe went straight to the only bathhouse nearby.
The area of the phototype film can be said to be large or small.
There are five streets in total, named according to "Guangren," "Guangyi," "Guangli," "Guangzhi," and "Guangxin."
There are approximately one or two hundred households in each street, and the total population of the street is more than 5,000.
If you open a bathhouse in a neighborhood with more than 5,000 people, you can imagine how the business here is going.
Su Mingzhe went in, paid the money, and felt people coming and going, rubbing shoulders and toes. After soaking for a few minutes, he washed himself and came out.
Just when Su Mingzhe was about to go out, Xu Kai's voice suddenly came from behind.
"Brother Su."
Xu Kai didn't expect to meet Su Mingzhe here.
But if you think about it, it’s normal.
The two of them had been hiding in the animal skins all afternoon. Su Mingzhe had a fishy smell on his body, and Xu Kai also had a fishy smell on him.
"Xiao Xu, what a coincidence."
Su Mingzhe turned around with a smile and said hello.
This Xu Kai's appearance can only be said to be more dignified, not as beautiful as Yu Hong, and naturally not as good as the three beauties Zheng Juan, Zhou Rong, and Hao Dongmei in "The World".
Su Mingzhe didn't want to provoke Hao Dongmei, who was already a famous woman, but he was determined to win Zheng Juan and Zhou Rong.
With these two goals in mind, Su Mingzhe had no idea about other women.
After all, he still has an identity in Xiangjiang. If he really wants to live and drink, he can just relax in Xiangjiang.
"Brother Su, this is my mother, Mom, this is Brother Su, Su Mingzhe. We educated youths are in Baiya Mountain, and we are all supported by Brother Su alone."…
Xu Kai excitedly told his mother about Su Mingzhe's great achievements.
Mother Xu's appearance was much prettier than her daughter Xu Kai, and her temperament was more like that of a lady. When facing Su Mingzhe to say hello, she just nodded with a smile and had no intention of saying hello further.
Su Mingzhe knew that Xu Kai's parents were both prostitutes in the past. Although they lost their official positions and were sent to work in factories, their living conditions have not been reduced much.
The Xu family still lives in a Soviet-style building not far away, and their living standard is many times better than that of ordinary people.
After Xu Kai's excitement passed, he saw Su Mingzhe and his mother just smiling and nodding. Only then did he realize that he had been a bit unladylike in calling Su Mingzhe just now.
Su Mingzhe didn't embarrass her for too long. He waved his hand and prepared to leave.
But just as he turned around, Su Mingzhe remembered something and turned back again, smiling:
"Xiao Xu, I can handle the purchased supplies myself. If you are at home these days, you can spend more time with your uncle and aunt. When we set out next Friday, we can just meet at the street meeting place."
"Okay, Brother Su."
When Xu Kai heard Su Mingzhe's arrangement, he subconsciously nodded in agreement.
Her mother frowned slightly when she saw it, but didn't say anything.
After all, according to the information Xu Kai told her, her daughter's return this time was all due to Su Mingzhe's strength.
No matter what, as a mother, she should be grateful to Su Mingzhe.
At this time, Su Mingzhe smiled and waved goodbye again.
Xu Kai and his mother responded with a smiley face.
