030. Why am I so good?
A spring rain and a warmth.
After the spring rains, Luling Mountain is dyed with a layer of new green.
In the early morning, the rooster crowed twice, and the sky was bright.
On the winding mountain road of Green Ridge Town, a tall figure was running hard, his body was strong, his legs were slender and powerful, and the rugged mountain road had become a smooth road under his long legs.
Sweat soaked his undershirt, and the outline of his inverted triangular back disappeared with his movements, and his figure became more robust.
From the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain on the mountainside, it is almost ten kilometers.
He kept running every day, and it was not easy to get cold and heat, and he persevered for more than half a year.
Last year, it took at least an hour to complete this uphill run.
Now you can run back and forth in an hour and a half.
On the way back, he met Zhao Bing, this guy drove a tractor, loaded a few packs of gastrodia to the county, and now the price of gastrodia has risen, and the Zhao family began to spend money to hire people to dig gastrodia in the mountains, and the harvest is not small.
"Gu Meng, do you want to collect Tianma?"
"What do you mean?"
Gu Meng stopped and asked.
"Didn't you accept gastrodia, I'm going to sell it to you, the market price is two, do you want it?"
So cheap?
Gu Meng's heart moved, in mid-March, the city's pharmaceutical factory started, gastrodia rose to one five, the Zhao family in the town to collect gastrodia bid for one two, but there is still a market priceless, now he is willing to sell at the market price, throw away the money in hand, there must be a conspiracy here.
"Do you want to?"
Zhao Bing smiled a little sinisterly.
"Yes!"
No matter what the conspiracy is, eat it first and then talk about it!
"Do you really want to?"
"Yes, I will eat as much as you want!"
I can't eat it myself, can't I give it to Lin Dalong as a favor?
Seeing his resolute appearance, Zhao Bing smiled coldly, "You think beautifully!"
It hurts, it hurts!
The tractor continued to crawl up the steep slope with black smoke in its mouth.
Fuck it!
Zhao Bing clenched the handlebars and spat fiercely against the wind, and the wind slit back into his face, he couldn't help but scold, feeling very depressed.
Originally, their brother's plan was to wait for Gu Meng to hoard some more gastrodia, and then arrest him, and the sentence could be heavier.
But after the New Year, everyone was in full swing to collect gastrodia, but Gu Meng died down, holding less than two tons of gastrodia in his hand, which was too small to constitute speculation, and their brothers thought of a way to sell gastrodia to Gu Meng cheaply, and increase the amount to him, making him guilty.
The plan was very good, but unfortunately it was opposed by the older generation.
Second uncle Zhao Hong said that hoarding Tianma to make money is a big plan and the main contradiction, and dealing with Gu Meng is a secondary contradiction, and it cannot be divided into primary and secondary.
Zhao Bing said he didn't understand.
His son Zhao Tai said again, you can't do this, the family finally collected a few tons of gastrodia from other places, and you all sold them to the Gu family cheaply, ready to plant the stolen goods, but what if Gu Meng was prepared? What if he quietly sold the gastrodia in batches? You are not taking revenge on Gu Xiaoer, but the enemy!
Zhao Laohan even scolded loudly, our Zhao family wants to deal with people, we have always borrowed the power of others, and we have never injured the enemy by 10,000 and damaged 8,000 by ourselves, you two useless things, get out of here!
The two Zhao Bing brothers could only leave in disgrace.
finally conceived a conspiracy, thought it was good, but died before it began.
Zhao Bing couldn't listen to it in his heart, but seeing Gu Meng's reaction just now, he suddenly felt that what the adults said was right.
If he sold Gastrodia to Gu Meng, he might really be in the mouth of a tiger.
If there is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure, you should learn from them in the future!
How to deal with Gu Xiaoer next?
Do you want to listen to the third child, and wait?
......
"Mengzi, the gastrodia has risen to a piece of eight, do you want to make a move?"
In order to be admitted to a good university, Gu Meng concentrated on learning scientific and cultural knowledge in school, ignoring things outside the window, and only reading sage books.
It's just that as soon as He Hongjun hears the news about gastrodia in the market, he will appear in front of him excitedly, tempting him with money and disturbing his thoughts, a bit like a stockbroker.
Gu Meng is a good student, how could he be moved by the small profits in front of him?
He waved his hand, "Not for sale!"
"Oh!"
He Hongjun sighed lightly, and his body burst like foam.
Gu Meng continued to study seriously.
The son said in bed, the deceased is like a sky, reluctant to give up day and night.
In the blink of an eye, April came.
In mid-April, the district organized a preliminary exam for all senior high school students in the Linzhou area.
The pre-examination is a knife, and only those who pass the pre-examination can be qualified to participate in the college entrance examination.
The purpose of the pre-examination is to reduce the burden of registering for the college entrance examination, and this regulation has been in place since 1980, when the pre-examination elimination rate was as high as 60%, which is really scary.
In recent years, the knives in the pre-examination have been much blunt, and the elimination rate has gradually decreased.
Last year, the number of senior high school students nationwide exceeded 2 million, and the number of people who were eligible to take the college entrance examination was 1.64 million, with an elimination rate of 20 percent.
The students who were poor in the class began to panic, and they were a little nervous about studying well.
As the class president, Gu Meng certainly hopes that the classmates in the class can get a good score.
He used his spare time to make a planner and decided to organize a study interest group in the class, which anyone who wanted to get a good grade could participate.
The role of interest groups is mainly to help those who study well and those who study poorly, which is equivalent to cram school.
In the spare time, everyone sat together to discuss each other's knowledge, exchange experience in the exam, and what incurable problems could be raised and solved together.
At first, the interest group consisted of only ten people.
Study well and don't want to waste time.
The poor student was disappointed in his studies, gave up the college entrance examination early, and prepared to go home to dig the ground, stock, and get married.
Gu Meng was not reluctant, how many could he help.
Every night after school, he and the school committee will spend some time to help the students who are not studying well and try to let them pass the pre-exam safely.
The interest group ran for a week, and it worked well, from 10 people to more than 20 people.
At the end of the preliminary examination, eight people in the class failed to qualify for the college entrance examination, and more than 20 people in the learning interest group all passed, even though one of the students turned out to be the last in the class.
The success of the study group has caught the attention of the school again.
The teachers found this kind of study group to be very good and wanted to keep it up, and at the same time asked everyone in the class to participate.
"No way!"
Gu Meng objected, originally the group was just a non-governmental organization, once it was mandatory to participate, it became a 'semi-official' nature, which is no different from adding a class after evening self-study, the burden is too great, someone must scold his mother, he wants to do good deeds, so he doesn't want to carry this black pot.
After the school seriously considered it, the director of education served as the group leader, and Gu Meng served as the deputy group leader, in charge of the group learning activities.
The school has also opened a little back door: all students who participate in the study group will only have a self-study session in the evening, and they can leave school at half past eight, and they must enter the group to study after school.
With this policy, the study interest group has become a college entrance examination assault group, and the number of students has changed from more than 20 to more than 50, and some students like to study quietly and cannot be forced.
There are many people, and the team is not easy to lead, Gu Meng subdivided the group members into six groups, including English group, mathematics group, geography group, etc., and the group leader is the student with the best score in a single subject in the pre-examination.
The study group was carried out for more than a month, and the results were not very good.
......
"Squad leader, Liu Lin fainted again!"
In mid-May, the weather gets hotter.
Some elderly people said that this year's weather is hotter than ever, and the heat is terrible.
At noon, the sun is at its fullest.
The scorching light poured into the classroom like magma, and the classroom of less than 50 square meters was filled with more than 60 people, everyone huddled together, like instant noodles in boiling water, and their souls were rising.
But the college entrance examination is approaching, everyone does not dare to slack off, even if they are in the steel furnace, they will not put down the textbooks in their hands, and at a critical time, once they let go, they will regret it for a lifetime.
It is said that some students study until 12 o'clock in the evening with candles, and get up before 5 o'clock in the morning to memorize books, which is very hard, especially for girls.
The significance of the college entrance examination is greater for girls than for boys.
Boys didn't do well in the exam, they could still tutor for a year, girls fell off the list, went home directly to get married and have babies, and walked around the pigsty stove all day long, like donkeys tied to the grinding rope, especially girls with poor family conditions, their hard work made the boys embarrassed.
Liu Lin is one of them, Liu Lin's family is in the mountains, and there are three younger sisters at home.
This year, the family is happy, her mother gave birth to a boy, and the whole family is very happy, but with a boy, all the resources in the family are unconditionally inclined to the boy.
Liu Lin's parents hope that their eldest daughter will drop out of school and go home, find someone to marry early, and still have some money.
Liu Lin was unwilling, she wanted to go to university.
As a result, the food stamps were gone.
Originally, she could exchange a few taels of coarse grain stamps a week and drink a bowl of corn porridge every day, but now every time she goes to school, she will carry ten steamed buns and a bottle of sour chili peppers, and survive a week with boiled water.
The steamed buns have green hair, it doesn't matter, put them in the sun to dry, and you can't eat them.
She longs for college, and she can swallow any hardship.
However, not everyone can become a Goujian.
Her academic performance was not very good, jumping between 20 and 30 in her class, which was an unpromising ranking based on last year's online rate.
She probably knew that her nerves had tightened even more, and she had fallen into a state of madness.
Once she was about to take a nap, she bit her lip fiercely, the bite was dripping with blood, and when she was sober, she chirped, tasted the blood, and showed a faint smile, almost scaring her table mates.
A few days ago, during the May Day holiday, the students went home to help cut wheat.
When she returned, her face became even worse and she fainted three times.
Liu Lin is also a member of the study group.
Gu Meng once talked to her, hoping that she could arrange her time reasonably, and her body was the most important thing, but the girl was very stubborn and couldn't listen to her at all.
She claimed to be a girl hanging from the edge of the cliff, and the book in her hand was a small sapling growing on the edge of the cliff, and as soon as she let go, she would fall into the endless abyss.
Now she finally fainted on the front line of the college entrance examination.
"Everyone continue to study on their own, don't mess up! Wang Shuzhen, come with me!"
After Liu Lin fainted, the classmates all stretched their necks, with an excited look in their eyes, and whispered, this is not schadenfreude, but a special stimulus, just like seeing their comrades on the battlefield hanging up and dyeing their eyes red.
Maybe many years later, they have forgotten a lot of things, but they will remember that hot summer, everyone studied hard, prepared for the college entrance examination, and a classmate fell on the front, and the battle that year was quite cruel!
Gu Meng came to Liu Lin's desk, the girl was slumped under the table, and the classmate next to her wanted to help her up, but the fainted person was covered in soft mud, and she couldn't pull it up.
Her tablemate had to fan her and sprinkle cold water on her face, but the girl still didn't wake up.
Gu Meng called the deputy squad leader Wang Shuzhen to accompany him, and went straight to the town's health center with the thin girl in his arms.
......
"Master Defu, how's it going!"
"Heat stroke is just one of them, your classmate is too weak and severely anemic, you had better persuade it, don't take care of it well, don't think about it for the next two months. ”
"Is there anything I can do to get her back quickly?"
"It's all a poor disease, eat well, relax, and you'll be fine in two months. ”
"I see!"
Poor disease, this is not uncommon in the class.
In fact, Liu Lin is not the only one in the class who has fainted in the past two months, but other classmates are not as serious as her.
Everyone is a child of a poor family, born in this era, not enough to eat and wear, born poor, how many of them have no poor diseases?
Gu Meng himself also has it, it took decades in his previous life to get rid of it, but in this life he woke up early and slowly healed most of them.
Now he has the ability to help these 'patients' and do something for these students as much as he can.
Poor diseases are easy to treat, and the cure is money!
Gu Meng applied for a small subsidy from the school, and at the same time, he took out 400 yuan to help everyone improve their food.
Although some people pouted and ridiculed him for being fake and generous, what kind of rich man is a poor bastard?
But Gu Meng didn't care.
It's not his virgin, 400 yuan is equivalent to a year's salary of a regular worker, and it is also the last capital on him, and the rest of the money is exchanged for gastrodia.
This money looks like a lot now, and it will be a meal in a few decades, but at this time, this money can change the fate of many people, and it is worth it.
With his help, the students in the class who are not in good conditions can eat meat every day, and they can also drink a bowl of hot big bone stew, and their lives are beautiful.
Everyone ate together, studied together, helped each other, and their grades improved quickly, and there were more smiles on everyone's faces.
In addition to improving the food, he also organized his classmates to run in the morning, run with him every day, and recite English together...
After two months, everyone's faces became rosy and their English scores improved significantly.
College Entrance Examination.
I'm waving to everyone!
Gu Meng is also about to face the first college entrance examination in two lives.
