Walking out of the factory gate, Duan Yuncai saw the era he had traveled to for the first time.

In his previous life, Duan Yun was born in 85, and he had no memory of the entire 80s when he was a child.

The sky was gray, and the surrounding buildings were also very simple, and the tone was a little dull, making Duan Yun feel as if he was in a nostalgic old photo on the Internet in the past.

The memory of the predecessor became clearer and clearer, and Duan Yun soon had an understanding of the factory.

Hongxing Gear Factory is the national 'Second Five-Year Plan' period, by the guidance of experts from the former Soviet Union, in the ancient city of Daxing to break ground, now the factory has more than 2,700 formal employees, is one of the local state-owned key enterprises in Daxing.

The area of the gear factory is not large, there is only a street of more than 500 meters at the entrance of the factory, and there are grain stores, restaurants, police stations, health centers, department stores, bathhouses, and newspaper kiosks on both sides of the street,...... It's just a small society with its own ecology.

Duan Yun's predecessor was actually only less than a month after entering the factory, and he had been in the countryside of northern Shaanxi for six years, and he received a notice to return to his hometown at the beginning of the year and returned to work in the Red Star Gear Factory.

From a promising doctoral researcher to an ordinary worker forty years ago, he fell as fast as a free body on the ground.

The only thing that makes Duan Yun happy is that the gap between his current body and his previous life is not too big, he has been in the countryside for six years, most of the time he has been picking dung to earn work, his body is as strong as a calf, lifting his clothes, and he can even clearly see the eight-pack abs that Duan Yun dreamed of in his previous life!

A strong body, vigorous energy, and the memories and minds of his previous life made Duan Yun's heart surge in an instant, and he felt an indescribable excitement.

At this moment, Duan Yun even felt that the air was full of the smell of banknotes.

"Brother!" At this time, Duan Yun heard a shout, followed the voice, and saw a girl with two oily black braids, handsome, thin, wearing a cyan student uniform, looking sixteen or seventeen years old, running over quickly.

With the memory of his previous life, Duan Yun quickly recognized that this girl was his 'sister' Duan Fang, who was currently in her third year of high school in the factory-run middle school and was going to take the college entrance examination next year.

In this era, there are many brothers and sisters in ordinary families, and family planning was only proposed in the early 70s, and before that, the country's slogan was 'more people are stronger', so it is normal for ordinary people to have three or four or even more children.

But the situation of Duan Yun's family is a bit special, Duan Yun's father was originally a math teacher in a factory-run middle school, and during the turmoil years, he was beaten as a 'stinky old nine', and it was almost commonplace to be dragged by rebels to criticize the street demonstrations, and finally died of a heart attack on the stage of Theater Street during a criticism, and his sister was just four years old at the time......

In the years that followed, the family of three relied on the meager salary of their mother Gao Xiuzhi in the sewing club to make a living, and it was a miracle that the two brothers and sisters did not starve to death.

"Brother, I heard that you ...... What happened to you?" Duan Yun asked his sister Duan Fang with a concerned expression.

"It's nothing, isn't it okay for me?" Duan Yun's heart warmed when he heard this, and then he said with a smile.

"Then just now Xiao Li from your workshop came to our house and said that you ......"

"I just choked on the water, and I almost didn't come up in one breath. Duan Yun prevaricated casually.

"But they say you're ......"

"They're all, don't listen to their nonsense!" Duan Yun didn't want his sister to be frightened.

"I see, it scared me enough just now...... Hurry home, fortunately my mother hasn't gotten off work yet, otherwise my mother wouldn't have dared to be scared of something. Duan Fang grabbed his brother's arm and walked straight towards the living area.

Most of the family buildings in the living quarters of the gear factory are the kind of tube buildings built with the aid of the Soviet Union, a long, dimly lit corridor, stringing up many single rooms of about 10 square meters, each floor has a public water room and toilet, and the corridor is full of miscellaneous items of each family, which looks mottled and old.

Some women who got off work early had already started to live and cook in the corridor, and the rolling fumes from time to time made Duan Yun feel a sense of suffocation, as a previous life, Duan Yun was obviously still a little uncomfortable with the environment here.

Several neighbors in the aisle looked at Duan Yun's brothers and sisters with a slightly strange look.

For a long time, many neighbors and relatives thought that the Duan family was almost finished, his father died early, his mother had a meager income in the sewing club, and his son was a fool who didn't open his mind, only Duan Fang was still smart, but after all, she was just a girl who had just entered high school and couldn't support this portal.

Therefore, the surrounding neighbors almost did not interact with the Duan family, but Duan Yun returned to his hometown and entered the factory this time, and everyone took a slight look at their family.

However, Duan Yun didn't care about the strange gaze of his neighbors looking at him, it was human nature to hate the poor and love the rich, even in this era when the proletariat was the master of the country.

Duan Yun's home is in the innermost position on the left side of the second floor, a room of more than ten square meters, the furniture layout inside is simply shabby, except for the curtains in the middle of the two beds and three folding chairs, there is only a single cabinet and a sewing machine.

There are also some books on the sewing machine, and usually my mother will take on some private work to make clothes, and she will use it as a writing desk for Duan Fang when she doesn't use it.

In the memory of her previous life, Duan Yun was very stupid and dropped out of middle school before finishing school, while her sister Duan Fang was very smart, and the rows of three-good student awards hanging on the wall were all hers.

"This is your English textbook?" Duan Yun asked after picking up a book from the sewing machine and flipping through it.

"Hmm. Duan Fang nodded when he heard this, then took out a few potatoes from the bag under the bed, and said, "I'll go cut vegetables first." ”

Taking advantage of the lack of people in the corridor, Duan Fang wanted to wash and cut the vegetables before her mother got off work.

Duan Yun flipped through the English book and immediately thought about it.

It has been five years since the official resumption of the college entrance examination in 1977, and now there is a wave of college entrance examination tutoring across the country.

It is difficult for later generations to imagine the fanaticism of young people in the 80s for the college entrance examination, in the era when there were no mobile phones and computers, and various entertainment activities were barren, many young people chose to devote their time and energy to tutoring and college entrance examinations, and with the halo of the first batch of college students on their heads, as well as the enviable work assignment, it greatly stimulated many young people who were dissatisfied with real life and wanted to change their destiny through reading.

As a doctoral student in a previous life, Duan Yun's professional knowledge and academic qualifications may be difficult to find a second person in the country, after all, in his brain, there is electronic engineering technology that is decades ahead of this era.

But Duan Yun now has knowledge, no education, and if he wants to regain his education, he has to start everything from scratch.

Compared with the college entrance examination in later generations, the college entrance examination in this era is much easier, and with Duan Yun's ability, he can naturally rely on the university without any suspense.

However, this month should have passed the day of the college entrance examination, and Duan Yun can only wait another year if he wants to go to college.

Moreover, the Red Star Gear Factory where Duan Yun is now located is also a professional counterpart for Duan Yun, and maybe he can find a new starting point in his life and career from here.

Putting down Duan Fang's textbook in his hand, Duan Yun saw the radio on the suitcase at a glance.

"Brother, you went into the city this Sunday to repair the radio, and it won't be able to turn on for a few days. At this time, Duan Fang held a pot of freshly cut shredded potatoes, walked in and glanced at Duan Yun and said.

"This thing is still used to repair in the city?" Duan Yun smiled when he heard this, and then said, "I'll try it." ”

After all, Duan Yun is a doctor of electronic engineering, and it is not a problem to repair this kind of old-fashioned radio, and Duan Yun himself has a special obsession with electrical technology, so he naturally will not let go of this opportunity to display his talents.

"Brother, will you fix it? Seeing this, Duan Fang frowned and said.

In the first few years, a small radio cost at least more than 100 yuan, which is almost two or three months' wages for a worker, Duan Fang is naturally very worried that his brother will destroy him.

"Don't worry. Duan Yun replied casually, then took out a screwdriver and gauze from the small drawer on the left side of the sewing machine, sat in front of the bed and held the radio to study.

Normally, repairing this kind of radio requires tools such as a multimeter and an electric soldering iron, but Duan Yun plans to take a look at the inner workings of this radio first, and then do other processing.

Seeing this, Duan Fang had no choice but to pout and walk away, although she didn't believe that her brother, who was a little dull-minded, would really repair the radio, but he had to go into the city to repair it anyway, so she simply turned her head and continued to wash the vegetables.

After Duan Yun opened the back cover of the radio, he blew off the dust inside with his mouth, and after wiping it with a dry cloth, he saw at a glance that there were obvious rust marks on the place where the switch coil was linked.

Duan Yun was overjoyed when he saw this, it seemed that he didn't need other tools to get this radio.

After gently scraping off the rust on it with a flat-headed cone, Duan Yun reinstalled the battery, and with a twist of the switch, there was a rustling sound inside.

"Is there a sound!?" Hearing the sound of the radio, Duan Fang immediately ran back to the house and looked at Duan Yun with a surprised expression.

"It's all trivial. Duan Yun smiled when he heard this, and said, "Your brother and I are experts in electronic technology......

"Bragging! You must have been a blind cat who met a dead mouse. Duan Fang glanced at his brother, and then a smile appeared on his face, and said, "Now you can continue to learn English!"

"Learn English?" Duan Yun was stunned when he heard this.
