Chapter 24 Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes

When Ma Feng, an inexplicable queue cutter, came to Dushan Farm, the attitude of the other educated youths in the production team was indifferent.

The farmers who were arranged to cut the queue were also a little confused.

But when Ma Feng came, he brought a whole box of cured meat and other good things, and he also knew that he was secretly currying favor with the farmer where he lived, and also secretly giving some benefits to the neighbors, so all doubts were temporarily suppressed.

Farmers have the simple wisdom of farmers, and no one will deliberately get along with people who can share meat to eat and send cloth to their families.

In addition, Gu Biao warned Ma Feng that no matter how much he reads, he must exercise every day in order to maintain a good mental state. Therefore, the two of them would still go to the field to do farm work for two hours every day - at the point of work and the point of finishing, they would each show up in front of people for one hour.

It was considered to be a workout, and it also avoided the fierce sun at noon.

Therefore, even if it is an irrelevant outsider, if you want to gossip, you can't talk about it.

After all, before the realization of the guarantee of production to the households, the peasants' enthusiasm for production could not be mobilized, and it was common for them to do not contribute to work, and the requirements for educated youths naturally could not be too harsh.

Otherwise, next year, those peasants in Xiaogang Village would not have to risk their bloody handprints and signing life and death certificates to privately divide the land and contract.

The tranquility was only broken in mid-November.

In rural areas in the south, the autumn harvest is generally completed in October. At the beginning of November, there is nothing more than some storage work left for threshing and drying grain, which belongs to the agricultural slack season.

It was November 11th.

The cardinal of the Commune went to the county and returned with a communiqué and the Daily Renren, which had been squeezed in the county for more than half a month.

At noon that day, the educated youth of several nearby production teams were boiling.

It was 20 days after the state media published the news that they learned about the resumption of the college entrance examination.

However, this obviously did not affect everyone's enthusiasm in the slightest.

There is a maximum of one month left until the start date of the exam. However, there is only a little more than a week left before the deadline for registration and qualification.

Next Saturday, that is, on the 19th, all the registration work will be closed, and the qualification review will be completely completed within a few days after the deadline.

All the educated youths are busy.

Gu Biao followed the crowd and went to the county seat to submit various materials.

In the review office of the county education bureau, when the staff saw that Gu Biao's household registration relationship was still in other provinces, they asked two more questions suspiciously. I learned that he came to join the team after graduating in June this year, and after repeated verification, he asked him to go back and supplement some materials, but said that he could pass in principle.

After all, there are still many educated youths from Hujiang in Hui Province, so it is not surprising to sign up across provinces.

Ten days later, everything was settled, and Gu Biao successfully got the admission ticket.

……

It was also after the admission procedures were completely completed that the educated youths gradually woke up from their confused state of being at a loss and began to spend their energy on revision.

Suddenly, at least two-thirds of the educated youth in the entire production team found various reasons not to work, or like Gu Biao, they worked for an hour each day at the end of work, which was considered exercise.

Fortunately, the management of the Cardinal and the Office of Educated Youth also understood everyone's difficulties and did not bother much.

However, where there are people, there will be rivers and lakes.

Some young people who are not good at revision, feel that they know the notice too late, and are already desperate for revision will start to use other brains.

Someone soon noticed that Gu Biao had begun to study very hard every day since more than two months ago, even in the autumn harvest month, he had to borrow a kerosene lamp to read at night.

Some people also noticed that Ma Feng, this kid, seems to have come a month before the resumption of the exam, and his bones are strange and look like monkeys, and he looks like a thief and trickster.

Some people also noticed that Gu Biao and Ma Feng had two very sophisticated sets of review secrets that could be called the "Nine Yin True Scripture" - the "Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry Self-study Series" of Hujiang Science and Technology Publishing House.

Those who have no hope of going on to higher education will soon ferment their jealousy against stolen runners like Gu Biao and Ma Feng.

"I heard that the science and engineering teachers of the Provincial Department of Education don't know what to take when the exam resumes. It seems that I used the "Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry Self-study Series" as a reference outline!"

"I heard that Wu Yueren, surnamed Ma, surnamed Gu, is a Bai Zhuan and a member of the ZI faction at home, and has a relationship with the central government, so the news is very well-informed and sneaked away in the preparation for the exam!"

Gossip like this had already spread among a small group of connected households in the commune half a month before the start of the examination.

After all, with such a hasty exam, it is impossible to be thorough and rigorous in secrecy. I can't even make the proposition teacher 100% isolated, eat and live.

The people in the proposition group, what reference materials do they usually bring, there will always be channels flowing out.

There may not be too many educated youths who can hear these news half a month before the exam, but among the hundreds of people in a commune, there are always ten or eight of them.

They are well-informed people who belong to the top 2%.

Then, when Gu Biao went to work every day, he would see someone pointing at him.

……

On the way back to the house that night, Gu Biao and Ma Feng were stopped by a male intellectual.

Gu Biao was not familiar with that person, but he only knew that he was quite rich among the educated youths in his production team.

The man seemed to have done a very thorough intelligence work, and when he saw Ma Feng, he said:

"Student Ma, I heard that you are applying for liberal arts, right? Then you don't need to take the physical chemistry test, can you sell me the six volumes of physical chemistry in the "Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry Self-study Series"? I will pay you double the factory price of the complete set of books! 40 yuan!"

Of course, Ma Feng does not sell.

When he was in Qiantang, he asked his friends in the black market to resell books at more than this price - at least 100 yuan a set can be sold at the moment.

The more the exam is approaching, the more knowledgeable people in the candidates understand a truth: at this time, the value of the book must not be calculated according to the multiple of the factory price. And it should be calculated according to the time difference between playing this time difference and not playing this time difference, and the height of your achievements in the rest of your life.

The martial arts cheats that can make your life trajectory in the next 40 years a lot higher than others, how much money is not too much.

The male intellectuals were unwilling, but immediately re-offered the price arrogantly: "100 yuan!"

100 yuan, he already needs to ask his father, who is still a skilled worker in the city, to take out some family savings. But that's still nothing compared to going to college.

The nature of a horse-style businessman is a little flirtatious, and I think it can be considered.

After all, the other party only needs six books that he can't use, and he won't form a competitive relationship with him.

However, Gu Biao opened his mouth to stop it.

"Ma Feng! You can't do speculative things! How can you sell books indiscriminately, and you don't own a bookstore!"

Gu Biao's words sounded high-sounding, but Ma Feng almost choked when he heard it.

He frantically complained in his heart: "Clams, you can't do speculative things, big guy! You are the ancestor of speculation!"

However, Ma Feng still had to listen to Gu Biao's orders, and the big guy earned thousands of yuan with him, and also gave him a future. How could he betray the big guy for a small amount of money.

So he sternly refused.

The male intellectuals begged for 200 yuan, but was finally told that it was not a matter of money, so he could only leave in despair.

"Brother Gu, why can't you sell it?" Seeing that the other party had dispersed, Ma Feng respectfully asked.

Gu Biao didn't hide it: "If you sell half a set of books, there will be 6 volumes, maybe they will change them and read them again, and they will change hands and return to the original." Although it is only half a month before the exam, it is still possible that at least five or six people, or more than a dozen people, will have their scores greatly improved even if everyone is not prepared.

For you, you just want to take a junior college, there are five or six thousand students in the whole province of Hui Province, and it doesn't matter if there are dozens of more people with better grades than you, so you can sell them. But I want to be in the top 50 in the province, so the less this set of books circulates as much as possible - it's not a problem that money can solve, understand?

For Ouyang Ke, it doesn't matter if there are more or fewer people in the world who have read "Nine Yin True Scripture", but for Ouyang Feng, the fewer people who have read "Nine Yin True Scripture", the better. This series of books in our hands, this year, in Hui Province, each set is worth a future professor of Jiaotong University.

So when your 80 sets of books were to be shipped, I told you to ensure that they would definitely be digested in Wuyue Province and that not a single piece of paper could flow into Hui Province. We have worked hard to immigrate to Hui Province for the college entrance examination, isn't it just that the picture is closed here and the information is asymmetrical?"

Ma Feng was in awe of the bigwig's foresight, and never had the idea of selling books again.

……

However, those well-informed young people obviously will not give up.

If men can't spend money, there will be women who come to make friends.

Fortunately, Ma Feng is ugly, and it doesn't seem that his grades are bad, and he doesn't look like he can mix up a great future with a secret note. Coupled with his stunted growth and short stature, he looks like a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy, and the woman thinks that he should not be old enough to think about women.

So no young lady can be ruthless enough to entrust such an ugly man for life.

In contrast, Gu Biao has grown taller this year because of his work and fitness, and he is already 1.75 meters. Although it is not the handsome kind of small fresh meat, it is also better than being upright.

So, two days later, in the evening, a female intellectuals came over to mingle.

The female intellectual's appearance was okay, and she specially wore a long skirt with soft gauze.

But Gu Biao didn't know him.

Because she is not from Gu Wei's production team, but from a neighboring town. It's just that the female intellectuals in ten miles and eight towns are not as beautiful as her, so each production team has rural legends about her.

"Classmate Gu, fortunately, my name is Su Zetian, I am from the town next door, and I want to apply for the exam this year. I heard that you have a set of "Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry Self-study Series", can I borrow it......"

However, Gu Biao refused without waiting for him to finish: "No!"

Su Zetian was anxious: "Classmate Gu, don't get me wrong, I will never take your book away." I'll come to you every day to review together. If you want to read any books, I will never touch or delay your study. Just pick the ones you haven't read.

And I don't look at you in vain, not only can I give you money, but I can also help you bring food, serve you soup and tea, and you can concentrate on reviewing!"

Gu Biao said ruthlessly: "Classmate Su, it's not this problem. I'm a person who doesn't like to borrow books, and there's no reason for that. ”
