Chapter 008 Before the money arrives, the spoils will be distributed first
Because of the Ah Lian family, although it is poor, but to say that the social relationship is worse than the Yang family, the children want to be recommended to go to high school, the whole Caijiawan has never encountered it, and the Donggou Brigade above Caijiawan has only encountered one opportunity a few years ago, that is, the son of the director of the Revolutionary Committee was recommended to Chiquan High School, and no one else should think about it.
This is also the reason why Yang Guangyao, the father of Yang, was willing to cut a pound of meat to come back to celebrate when he saw his son get the admission letter of Chiquan High School.
"Ah Lian, do you still want to study?" Yang Xia asked suddenly.
"Don't you have a book to read?" Chen Lian's expression suddenly became a little gloomy.
"Hehe, that's not necessarily, if you want, maybe I have a way." Yang Xia said confidently.
Yang Xia said this, he didn't want Chen Lian to be like his sister, easily find someone to marry, Chen Lian's talent and appearance are more beautiful than his sister, if there is more culture, plus his own guidance, not to mention the life of the family, just in terms of economic status, there will definitely be earth-shaking changes.
"You brag that high school is so good." Ah Lian didn't believe it at all. But Ah Lian's words also revealed her desire to go to school if she had the opportunity.
"Hey, I'm saying this now, you must think I'm bragging. I would tell my sister to let her continue to look at the junior high school textbooks, or find some of the latest junior high school textbooks to read, and I would only need a year to send my sister to Chiquan Middle School for high school. If you really want to go to school, you might as well contact my sister more. ”
"Your sister is so happy to have your younger brother, but our family may not let me go to school anymore." Speaking of which, Ah Lian's mood is not high.
Ah Lian's surname is Xing, her name is Xing Ah Lian, her family is very peculiar, her parents gave birth to six girls in one go, until the seventh gave birth to a boy, Ah Lian is the third in the family, his eldest sister has been married, the second sister also said that her mother-in-law's family, or it will be almost time to marry in two years, and then her family should be Ah Lian's top pole.
"This ...... The key is what you think. If you are determined to go to school, my sister and I can help you. Yang Xia thought for a while, gritted his teeth and said.
In this era, it is very easy to support a person to study, if there is a financial resource. The tuition fee is very cheap, even if you repeat it, it is only about 10 yuan per year, plus the cost of books is less than 20 yuan, and then it is life, 30 catties of rice a month, and it is only about 15 yuan per month (referring to the free market of righteous rice, with food stamps only 1 jiao, 3 cents and 8 centimeters a catty), that is, 150 yuan a year, it is easy to support a student, and it is a high school student.
The problem is that in this era, most people can't make money, unless it's someone like Yang Xia who can write, and he basically guarantees that he can publish, but how many such people are in China.
"Why are you helping me like this?" Ah Lian seemed to have guessed something. The girl is precocious, and the status of Chen Lian and Yang Xia is basically the same at this time, so Ah Lian thought directly about it.
"Because you are very beautiful, it's a pity to be buried in Caijiawan. Ah Lian, seriously, the world is very big, and the best way to get out is to read books, read more. ”
It is impossible for Yang Xia to say that doing business or something, at this time, business is what kind of tail, what kind of doctrine, there is absolutely no such thing in life. Of course, Caijiawan also has merchants, but how can that kind of businessman get out. Even if they make some money, they don't know what the world is like.
"You, you...... I won't tell you. Although it was not the first time that Ah Lian had heard someone say that she was beautiful, it was the first time she had heard a man say it, and it was a very nice man who said that she was beautiful, and she blushed instinctively.
"Ah Lian, you remember, if you want to study by then, you can find my sister, and my sister will tell me." Yang Xia said confidently. If he really wants to improve and save Ah Lian, there is also a way, that is, to get engaged to Ah Lian at the right time, but although Yang Xia is very willing to maintain a close relationship with Ah Lian, when it comes to marriage, Ah Lian is not the best choice.
This is not a problem of Ah Lian's low culture and bad family, but a problem of "too early". Because Ah Lian wants to go to high school, if she is over 19 years old, it will definitely be quite difficult, but which girl in Caijiawan didn't get married when she just turned 18? Although the country has a marriage law, most of the villagers in the big hometown have one eye closed, besides, the task of pulling the marriage certificate is generally handed over to the man to find a way, even if the commune is responsible for the registration, it is not good to get someone else's marriage, you are a hard card, you are doing the thing of cutting off children and grandchildren, everyone will scold you.
Of course, this is not the case at all. At this time, marriage in the countryside does not need to be registered by the government at all, as long as the date is good, and the two parties have a wedding wine, it means that the marriage is over. The government, it can't be so wide, right?
Too early, which means that if Yang Xia wants to intervene in this matter, he must be engaged to Ah Lian before Ah Lian is 19 years old, so as to ensure that Ah Lian will go to high school and then be admitted to secondary school or university, but at that time, Yang Xia was only 18 years old, of course, according to rural customs, Yang Xia has no problem with fake engagement, and he is willing to bear all the consequences of regretting marriage, but is this fair to the woman?
Therefore, the last way is for Yang Xia to become famous as soon as possible, and to become financially self-reliant as soon as possible, and then he can exert his influence among the villagers in Caijiawan, for example, if anyone is willing to go to high school, Yang Xia can sign a loan agreement with him, study in high school for two years, lend 300 yuan to others, if he is admitted to a secondary school or junior college, and work after repayment, if he is not admitted, even if he is given benefits to the villagers.
Thinking of this, Yang Xia himself was shocked, what about 300 people in this village, there are about 5 junior high school graduates on average every year, can he earn so much money in a short period of time?
However, after this idea appeared, it was deeply rooted in Yang Xia's memory. In the late 70s and early 80s, this method was undoubtedly the best way to save Cai Jiawan's peers, and as for the money, Yang Xia believed that he would definitely be able to find it.
Because Yang Xia's words were too "explicit", Ah Lian just worked hard in the second half of the year and stopped talking, and Yang Xia also felt that he was in a bit of a hurry, which caused Ah Lian's disgust and was not cost-effective, so he kept burying his head in doing things.
At noon, the two went home for dinner, and Yang Xia was reluctant to take the heavy scales and scales down the mountain and then take them up the mountain, so he buried the scales and scales in the soil and dug them out again when he went to work in the afternoon. Moreover, the scale and the scale rod are buried separately, so even if someone finds the scale rod, it is of little use.
In short, these things are just small pieces of wisdom in life, and they are nothing.
……
Because Ah Lian was reluctant to talk to Yang Xia more, the effect of the two of them was very significant, Captain Lin originally planned to divide the orange poles in two days, and the two guys finished it in one day, and the two teenagers were praised by the production captain, but they suffered Yang Xia.
In other words, Yang Xia's body is no problem doing this kind of farm work, but because Yang Xia is completely the psychology of the later generations, he feels very tired and tired, mainly because this kind of labor has no meaning at all, and he earns 7 points for a day of labor, and the highest value is only 1 jiao and 7 points.
The next day, Yang Xia took a day off, sorted out the "Old Horse Mountain Story" he wrote and copied it neatly on the text, and then handed it to Yang Dad for appreciation.
Yang Dad was a primary school graduate in the Republic of China, and if it weren't for his family background, he would have become a national cadre a long time ago, so there is basically no problem in reading general articles.
Some of Yang Xia's ideas need to be supported by Yang Dad.
"You wrote this?" From the end of the afternoon to the time before dinner, for a whole hour, Daddy Yang never took his eyes off the manuscript. Of course, Yang Xia also made the oil lamp bright.
"Yes, Dad." Yang Xia is like a good baby.
"In your pen, Lao Ma Shan seems to be pretty good. By the way, how did your words become so good, better than your Lao Tzu's words? Father Yang praised half a sentence and asked half a sentence.
"Dad, I'm not working hard." Yang Xia said with an aggrieved expression.
"Well, tell me, what do you want to do." The son has made progress and improved, especially this handword, although this handwriting has become beautiful, but he can still see the shadow of his words before, which makes him feel very relieved to be a father.
"Dad, I want to send this article to Nanshu Writers for publication, I saw this magazine when I was in Wuxianmiao Middle School, so I ......," Yang Xia said.
"Can this be published?" Father Yang was a little surprised.
"It should be possible, I read the articles on "Nanshu Writers", and it looks almost like this." Yang Xia's words have some water, and the "Nanshu Writers" of this era, if the average level of prose is really not as good as Yang Xia's.
"Then you can send it." Daddy Yang said.
"Dad, I don't have postage." This is Yang Xia's purpose, junior high school students, go home to eat every day, basically have no pocket money, even if they are given at home, they can only give a corner at most, you can eat a bowl of Shaozi noodles on the street, unless you can save a dime when you are hungry, or you can save 2 points by eating a bowl of somen noodles, but, the appetite of young people, who wants to save that 2 cents without eating Shaozi?
"How much?" Daddy Yang asked.
"Give me 2 corners, an envelope, and two stamps."
"Why two stamps?"
"Dad, a stamp can only hold 20 grams of stationery, such a thick article, it's already overweight, and if it's overweight, you have to put an extra stamp."
"Okay, I'm going to find your mother."
"Dad, there's one more thing." Yang Xia's body did not move.
"What else?"
"That is, after the article was published, the magazine sent me a remuneration, which is estimated to be as low as 40 yuan. At that time, I will be given 10 yuan for this manuscript fee. Yang Xia said.
"40?" Father Yang looked at Yang Xia's serious appearance, and added, "If there are really 40 yuan, don't say 10 yuan for you, you take half of it." "Daddy Yang is very generous. Yang Guangyao has actually had some insight in his life, but he just didn't see the manuscript fee and writers, besides, according to his original intention, his son's article was published in a journal, and it would be good to have a reputation, but he didn't expect to earn 40 yuan!
It can be seen from this how successfully Daddy Yang was brainwashed!
