Since 1979 I have been in the tide of the times

Chapter 184 There is a Gap between Ideal and Reality [-]
Wang Dianchuan did not wait for the last student at the exit, that student entered the airport from outside the airport to find Wang Dianchuan.

"Actually, I arrived in Tokyo one month in advance after I got the visa, and I earned 16 yen in just this month looking for a job in Tokyo!" the student in his 30s said complacently.

In order to make more money, he waited until the last day before rushing to the airport to report.

His words made the other students feel sorry, and it would be great if he came here a month earlier, but it doesn't matter, since he has already come, the chance of making money is great!
Wang Dianchuan, the principal of Meguro, took 56 students from China to Kushiro City near Akan Town by plane. When the plane was about to land, there were endless forests, grassy pastures, and And the gray blue sea.

The first impression of this place where I am about to study and work to make money is very good.

When the more than 50 people walked out of the airport, they felt even better. Seven or eight teachers from Asuka School in Akan Town stood at the door to welcome them.

Several teachers nodded and bowed to Wang Weidong and the others with smiles on their faces, as if they were the teachers.

A group of people boarded a bus and left Kushiro City to go northwest.

Akan Town is very close to Kushiro City. Not long after, Principal Meguro pointed to a sign outside a small building outside the car window and said, "Look, this is a sign hung by the town government to welcome you!"

But the bus did not stop but continued to move forward, the more desolate the surrounding scenery became.After driving for half an hour, a village appeared in front of them. An old man and a child stood on the side of the road and watched the bus. Except for these two people, no one else in the village was seen.

"There is a charcoal field there, and at most there are hundreds of people working there." Principal Meguro said pointing out the window.

The charcoal fields are coal mines. President Meguro's words ignited the enthusiasm in the hearts of the students. They are not afraid of hardship at all, even if they go to the coal mine to mine coal to make money.

But the next words from Principal Meguro extinguished the fire that had just ignited in everyone's hearts.

"The charcoal field has been closed a few years ago, and the workers have left. The houses you see are all empty. Now there are only a dozen families in the village, more than 30 people, but it's good for you to come. The village is thriving again!" Principal Meguro said excitedly.

The nearly 60 people who just came here from China and planned to make a big profit were stunned. It turns out that their coming here has more than doubled the population here!
Many people looked very ugly. They came to make money, and their family members waited for them to send money home after a month to repay the money they borrowed from relatives and friends.

But how to make money in this place with only a dozen families?

Asuka School in Akan Town was rebuilt from an abandoned middle school, with a canteen, bathroom, barber shop, dormitory and so on.

It seems that the people who opened this school still put their heart into it.

The dormitory is a six-person room, and there is a heater and the bathroom is complete and tidy.

The conditions here are much better than the hard life when everyone went to the mountains and went to the countryside.

Wang Weidong and five other people arranged to enter a room. Except for Wang Weidong, the other five sat on the bed in silence.

For a long time, one person said: "When I borrowed money, I said well. I will send money home after a month here. What will happen to those relatives and friends who ask for money at home?"

Borrowing money is like this, as long as you pay back the money, even if it is a little less, it doesn't matter. The more you pay back the money, the less anxious the creditor is, but the more you don't pay back, the harder the creditor presses you.

At that time, the daughter-in-law's parents will be devastated.

Only Wang Weidong was lying comfortably on the bed. If other people knew that this kid had a fortune of more than 50 yuan, they would definitely think that he was mentally ill. Since he was so rich, why did he come here?
In fact, the principal and teachers of Asuka School in Akan Town did not understand them. The tuition and miscellaneous fees of more than 40 yen were nothing to them. They did not expect that more than 50 students were suffering from it.

In the evening, he ate braised pork rice. Wang Weidong thought it was very delicious. The rice was very good, and the fat but not greasy pork belly was enough to fill his stomach.

This is Hokkaido, and it's very cold at night. After plugging in the heater, six people sat in the room and chatted.

The six people first introduced themselves and then chatted about their life experiences in China. The roughly similar life experiences made the conversation more speculative and more revealing.

"I can't stay here any longer, my family is waiting for me to send money back immediately." A person named Xiao Jianguo said.

"If you leave now, what about the visa? Do you want to hide from XZ to make money in the future?" Another person named Zheng Li asked.

Several people fell silent again.

These people are honest and well-behaved people in China. Even if they go abroad, they want to make money through their own hard work. How could they violate the law?
But people's courage is forced out.

Wang Weidong is different from them. He has no sense of urgency to make money, but seeing these people who are extremely anxious by 3 to [-] RMB makes him feel uncomfortable.

In the middle of the night, Wang Weidong had already fallen asleep, but the other five people were lying on the bed but couldn't fall asleep because of tossing and turning.

The opening ceremony of the second day was very grand. The Mayor of Akan Town attended in person, and the Town Superintendent of Education, the police and villagers all came to the ceremony.

This small village has not been so lively for several years.

Young people have left here to develop in big cities, and the rest are old people and children, and there are only three or 40 people.

In order to establish this school, Akan established the China-Japan Friendship Association. People in the association provide guarantees for students who study here, which is why this school is very easy to apply for.

The purpose of the Akan town government is to make dozens of Chinese students a qualified labor force through a period of study, and then attract a little investment to develop the breeding industry and other businesses, thus forming a virtuous circle.

But what they didn't expect was that these Chinese students couldn't wait any longer.

It is such a language school with dozens of people that attracted several reporters to interview. In many declining areas in this country due to population loss, how to revitalize the economies of these areas has become a big problem.

So this small school in Hokkaido has attracted a lot of attention.

In the middle of the night, Wang Weidong was awakened suddenly by a rustling sound. He sat up suddenly and found two people in the dormitory were packing their things, while the others were sitting on the bed and watching.

It was Xiao Jianguo and a classmate surnamed Zhao who packed up their things. They stuffed their things into their bags.

"How are you going to go?" A classmate sitting on the bed asked.

"Go to Kushiro along the road while it's dark, and then go to Tokyo." Xiao Jianguo replied.

The two carried their bags on their backs, shook hands with the rest of the dormitory, said goodbye, opened the door lightly and walked out.
