Chapter 45: I Want to Return to My Hometown

Although I couldn't figure out who that person was, I didn't understand why he kept me away from the person with the surname Xiao. But there is one thing that really touched me when he asked me to go back to work and take care of my mother.

I thought carefully about the experiences I had in the past few months, and I wanted to come here to increase my knowledge, but now my knowledge has indeed increased a lot, but it makes me want to go back to my hometown more and more, maybe it is more suitable for me.

In addition, considering the future development, taking care of my mother, including getting married and having children in the future, maybe I should indeed go back to my hometown, at least not far from home, and find a serious job, which is more reliable.

I'm a doer, I just do what I say, and I immediately think about how to find a job. But after all, I am alone thousands of kilometers away, how can I know the recruitment information over there?

I had to wait for a weekend, and I went to the city on a camel with two guys, and by the way, I asked about the current employment situation.

However, I walked around a few times and asked a lot of places that I could think of, as well as some local clubs that specifically posted job postings, but I didn't find one that met my criteria. The reason is simple – professionalism. I also expected that there would be such a situation, the major of gold and stone, not only unpopular, but also unique, and almost impossible to integrate with all aspects of social development, to put it bluntly, leaving the field of gold and stone, it is basically a waste.

I took a deep breath and asked a different question. Simply ask the local elders with relevant experience directly: "How do students of Jinshi major find employment?"

Not to mention, there are really people who know about this problem, and I don't know which of the seniors who were almost unlucky with me in the early years summed up the experience and was known by this one.

He told me a lot of words, and to sum up, the work that can be matched with this broken profession is nothing more than internal and external.

Now outside is to go to private collections, auction houses, planning houses, cultural relics protection and appraisal and restoration companies, exploration lines, and throw away in the northwest region is basically in the big cities, compared to the private industry is relatively easy to enter, but the boss's squeeze is a big pit; And inside is to go to all levels of yamen, collection museums, gold and stone institutes, and schools, or to be a Mr. history, eat imperial food, but it is relatively difficult to enter, to take an exam, but now the current politics are clear, the world is fair, it is not an opportunity.

Fuck, the major is well chosen, and the employment situation is really good.

Compared with each other, I think it's safer to find a job inside, after all, I've been exposed to this saying since I was a child. The Jinshi Institute was too tired outside every day, the yamen was more difficult to enter, and I only played undergraduates and couldn't go to the university hall, so the direction was very clear, and there were only two: the collection hall and the history teacher.

So I started looking for relevant information again, not to mention, I saw in the hall that there was a township exam in April after the opening of the New Year, and it happened that there was also a recruitment of our local collection museum, and those who had studied history and gold and stone in the school could apply for the exam.

I was "moved" by the warmth from my hometown and was about to shout, isn't this the job I'm looking for?

So I wrote down several important time nodes, especially the time to register for the written exam, and checked the exam subjects and reference books, I went to several bookstores nearby to search for several related books, and after I went back, I began to actively prepare for the exam.

One night, Brother Sun came to me and saw the book I was reading, and it was obvious that he was a person from the past, because he was a regular job that he had been admitted to. He asked me, "Which side are you going to take?"

I told him that I wanted to go back to work in my hometown collection, and he nodded, told me a lot of precautions, and then went home to find me the experience of writing the notes he had made. Although he usually has the demeanor of a big brother, he is still very enthusiastic and considerate in his bones, and such a friend deserves respect.

Nothing strange happened after that, and I continued to work during the day and study at night. It wasn't long before the exam, so even if I was tired, I had to push myself hard every day.

Time passed quickly, and I had to toss back and forth for many days on the road because I had to go home for the written exam, so I had to leave my job.

Fortunately, Aunt Qian, who is in charge of personnel, is also very easy to talk to, and the management here is not very strict, she said that she can come at any time if she wants to come in the future, so it doesn't have a big impact.

I found the carriage and set out on my way back to my hometown. In the carriage, I looked at the reference books, and from time to time looked up at the scenery on both sides, from the Gobi Desert to the loess ravines, to the dead wood in spring, and the peach willows sprouted, I knew that I had arrived home.

I didn't stay for a few days when I came back this time, and I didn't have anything to do with other people, I studied at home before the exam, only my mother came back from work, and I talked to her about things over there, but I almost lost my life in LL, and other weird things, I didn't mention anything.

As the saying goes, the mother of a thousand miles is worried, so why bother to increase her worries.

After the exam, it will take a long time before the list can be released, and considering that there is still a lot of salary in City D, I decided to go to City D to do it for a while. The night before I was leaving, my mom came back and brought me a box, which was my favorite snack. Although she spent a lot of money, she said to me happily, "Eat slowly on the road."

After packing up the luggage and food, my mother went to work, so there was no one to say goodbye, so I found a donkey cart and went to the post station, and made a carriage for many days back to City D.

Next, I wrote letters to my mother and several brothers in the dormitory, as well as to Mr. Shen, Team Chen, and Abidan, and talked about the recent situation. Counting them, that's all I have left.

Then I waited for the results while going to work, and the northwest weather was very strange, it was very cold when it was cold, and it was very fast when it was hot, and it was very hot in May. We were often crammed into a closed grotto, and we couldn't use fans for the sake of protection, which was very uncomfortable. However, compared to digging in the field, there is no sun here. I still remember the last time I did an internship, it tanned me a lot.

About a month later, my mother wrote to me, and she was very happy with the words: "Son, you ranked first in the written test, and you are many points ahead of the second place!" Come back quickly. ”

I smiled slightly, and said in my heart that I am also good at studying for the exam, otherwise the entrance examination will not be so smooth, after all, there are only a few university halls with Jinshi Studies, and this exam to find a job should be half the success.

Because although the written test and interview are half each, the 100-point written test is a lot ahead of the 100-point system, and the interview is also a 100-point system, so pull me so many points? Unlikely. Last time I went back, I heard that I could sign up for a class to study before the interview, and basically I wouldn't lose too much to others.

So I bought the ticket again, and the thought of having to ride in the carriage for many days gave me a headache. But who let himself run to such a place with a hot brain in the first place?

When I was looking for a carriage, I already had experience, and I said that this trip must not pass through City A, just go to the big waist. So I immediately wrote to him that evening, agreed on a time with him, and I bought a ticket directly to City A.

After packing up my things, I invited Brother Sun and the other big guys to have a casual meal, so everyone has been eating, living and traveling together for so long, it is impossible to have no feelings.

I stood at the door of the carriage station in D city to say goodbye to my grandson who got up early to see me off, and looked south at the temple of human art in Cave M next door, and I felt a little reluctant in my heart, and I didn't know what year or month it would be to come here again.

If it weren't for the lack of time in the middle of the interview, I would have really wanted to go back to Province X first to see Abidan and them, and now that I have returned to work in the south, I am no longer a free person, and I don't know when I will see you again.

Many people accidentally see each other for the last time, which is true.
