Although the forest farm has a small train that leads to the city, this forest train is mainly used to transport wood for the forest farm's production.

Although there are two carriages that can accommodate people, this is a convenience and everything is for production services.

Nowadays, the harvesting volume of each forest farm is very limited, and the small train only transports wood to the city in the afternoon.

Gu Zhaocheng had to go to the city early in the morning, so he would definitely not rush if he wanted to wait for the train.

So we still have to take a car, although the dirt road in the mountains is a bit bumpy.

But Gu Zhaocheng doesn't get motion sickness, this is just a small problem.

"Xingjie, let's go. I'll be with you today."

Gu Zhaocheng left in the morning, just in time to follow Xingjie.

Xingjie, unlike Fengxia, still goes to school occasionally. Because he also wants to study at night, he has always lived at home.

Living at home is not only convenient for studying, but also requires much less expenses.

In all aspects, it is very suitable for Xingjie who has been cut off from his financial source.

"Okay, brother, let's go together." Xingjie nodded, picked up his schoolbag, and the two of them were ready to leave.

Because of such a long journey, every day is a rush.

"You two wait, get an egg and then go."

Na Cunhua stopped the two people.

In the Gu family, each person has one egg every day in the morning, which is seven.

At this time, families like the Gu family who don't raise chickens basically buy eggs from chicken farms.

Eggs are big, only seven or eight per catty, and the price per catty fluctuates between three and four yuan.

For Gu Changshan, who has a basic salary of two to three hundred a month, and only gets a salary of five to six hundred if he performs logging in the mountains, this is already a considerable expense.

That's why Chen Xingjie wanted to leave fifty cents for his family after taking the eggs in the morning.

Even though Cunhua was caught and scolded several times, she still wanted to keep her at home.

Just because they knew that the old Gu family couldn't afford it.

It's not that I can't afford this egg, it's just that I can't afford it. The family has to bear the expenses of two more people in all aspects.

"Okay." Gu Zhaocheng went to the stove to get two eggs and gave one to Xingjie.

Gu Zhaocheng and Chen Xingjie were together, so of course they didn't give Chen Xingjie a chance to secretly put money.

And after living at home for so long, Xingjie already has some sense of belonging to the Gu family.

I am no longer as unruly as I was at the beginning, and I am no longer so entangled in some small things.

After getting into the car, the two of them didn't sit together and didn't say much.

After Xingjie sat down, he closed his eyes and meditated. He was probably doing the questions in his mind, so Gu Zhaocheng didn't bother him.

At this time, Xingjie didn't have much in his mind except studying.

That’s why we can become a successful small-town problem solver.

"Brother, I have to go to school. Class is about to begin. I can't accompany you for your physical examination."

"Okay, you go to school. I can do it on my own. Although I don't come much, it's not like I haven't been to the city before."

When the bus passed by the school after entering the city, Chen Xingjie got off the bus first. The bus from the forest farm to the forest farm school and the forestry bureau were very convenient.

Gu Zhaocheng said he was going to the Ministry of Armed Forces, but in reality, he just found a public phone and called to explain the situation.

The rest was Gu Zhaocheng's free time.

Although the actual situation in the city is not particularly prosperous, for Gu Zhaocheng, who has stayed in the mountains for such a long time, it is still very prosperous.

It’s already lively enough. It’s the first time I’ve seen so many cars and people since I came here.

Although I already like the quietness in the mountains, it's nice to be lively once in a while.

With hundreds of kilograms of fish, you can choose to wholesale it to vendors in the market, sell it to restaurants, or set up a stall at the entrance of a community.

Thinking of trying to sell it at a higher price, Gu Zhaocheng picked up two buckets and chose a wealthy community in the city.

In this era, residential communities in the city are mainly composed of family homes belonging to work units.

Which neighborhood is richer is written on the door. You can tell by looking at the prefix.

Gu Zhaocheng still caught a lot of fish, including less valuable crucian carp, carp, grass carp, more expensive old man fish, catfish, snakehead carp, silver carp and bighead carp, more expensive aohua, and fine scale fish that can compete with the price of sea fish. Salmon.

In this era, we have gone from having enough food to eating well.

With the concept of pursuing wild fish, the price of these river fish is still higher than that of farmed fish.

Even valuable fish are relatively small in quantity, so it is not easy to sell them for too much money.

In one morning, he visited several communities and cleared out these fish. Gu Zhaocheng also sold them for 1,300 yuan.

It was better than Gu Zhaocheng expected.

After staying there all morning, Gu Zhaocheng discovered that small business in this era can actually be done.

The business of selling some vegetables, fruits, and snacks at the entrance of the community is actually quite good.

It is no longer that easy to just take advantage of the information gap and pursue huge profits in the 1980s.

But it is still possible to become rich and well-off, but it is unrealistic to want to get rich based on these things.

If you have vision and brains, life is not that difficult.

Even if you work hard, you can still find a job.

Gu Changshan wants to drive out all the young people from the forest farm. There is no way out for these people.

After it was over, Gu Zhaocheng also had 1,500 yuan with the more than 200 yuan he had on him.

Then he started spending, even though it was the start-up capital prepared by Gu Zhaocheng.

But it doesn’t matter if you spend a little. If you don’t spend money after making money, there will be no motivation to make more money.

Although saving money is a happy thing, it is still not as happy as spending money.

Bring two cigarettes to Song Liuxi. The old man doesn't have many hobbies. Smoking is one of his hobbies. He is a long-time smoker and smokes dry tobacco.

No matter what, tobacco leaves are too harmful to the body, so I still need to change them for the old man.

It's a little hard to quit smoking at such an old age, but it's possible to take less.

This is a start. In the future, Gu Zhaocheng can make money openly. Buying some cigarettes for the old man is nothing.

Gu Zhaocheng still admired the old man's idea of ​​planting more than 30,000 trees after cutting down more than 30,000 trees.

Then he bought a hat for Gu Changshan and a scarf for Na Cunhua.

These two rarely spend money on themselves, but they still have to buy something for the two of them.

When Gu Changshan was a model worker, he made a Chinese tunic suit to look more respectable, but Cunhua didn't even have decent clothes.

All in all, both of them treated themselves quite badly.

It's just that Gu Zhaocheng bought too many things and it's hard to explain where they came from. Today I just want to make a point.

The forest farm has just begun. Before, forest farm workers were quite profitable.

It makes more money than ordinary units.

They didn't live a good life, but Gu Changshan and Na Cunhua were too kind and helped others too much.

If you were willing to be a little selfish, life wouldn't be so difficult for the Gu family.

Give Xingjie a set of three-year college entrance examination and five-year simulation exercises. This child must be admitted to college, which should be considered a good idea. Giving Gu Zhaoxi a set of Slam Dunk comics is also the most popular thing in this era.

Stimulate this child's interest in sports and have some ideas.

If there is no way to go through cultural classes, we can only let the children take the path of special talents.

Finally, there was Feng Qin who lived at home, and Gu Zhaocheng couldn't treat her too obviously differently.

I was given a set of "Disciple Rules", "Three Character Classic" and "Filial Piety Classic" to express gratitude.

This is also a child who likes to learn. Gu Zhaocheng hopes that the child will like it and then study it seriously and learn it from his heart.

For myself, I just bought one piece of clothing, but all the clothes seemed to Gu Zhaocheng to be quite tacky.

It doesn’t matter what style it is, just that it can keep warm.

In fact, the cotton-padded jacket is still a fashionable thing, but Gu Zhaocheng is afraid that if he puts it back on, others won't be able to appreciate it.

Then I replenished my fishing gear, bought two professional fishing rods, and bought some fishing nets. Gu Zhaocheng couldn't weave fishing nets, so I had to buy ready-made ones.

The river is not big, and Gu Zhaocheng doesn't want to make too much noise.

After all, this river is also on the edge of 923. It is shared by everyone and cannot be used as one's own fish pond.

In other words, just prepare a few ground cages and a small sticky net.

After buying everything, Gu Zhaocheng took his time to explore the city.

After all, it is a prefecture-level city, and the urban area is not small.

This is a place famous for its vast land and sparsely populated areas, but the city area has caught up first.

The city of Bianhe is not developing very fast. After all, it is a resource-based city.

After resources are exhausted, we will face a transformation problem.

Although there are also high-rise buildings rising, they are still not large-scale.

In terms of infrastructure construction, progress is quite slow, and there are not many new industries.

Basically, it is still supported by some old heavy industries from previous eras.

In the previous era, after the survival of the fittest, there were still some companies left.

Compared with the peak period, it is definitely incomparable.

But the remaining companies can be considered high-quality companies.

This place is quite different from the cities in the south and central China.

If you want to develop here, you really need to think about what is appropriate.

"Brother, how are your physical examination results? After passing the physical examination, will you leave?"

When Xingjie was out of school, Liu Hongchang went to the school gate and waited for Xingjie to go back together.

"Xingjie, let me tell you something in advance. I am not going to be a soldier. I did not go for a physical examination today. If my parents are angry after returning home, please help me persuade them."

Gu Zhaocheng stayed here until now, of course not because he didn't know how to get back. The main reason he kept Xingjie was to have an extra buffer when he was waiting for one more confession.

"Brother, isn't your ideal to be a soldier?"

"My eldest brother has grown up now. His childhood ideals no longer count. After seeing the colorful world in the city, my eldest brother has changed..."

Gu Zhaocheng's explanation to Xingjie was a bit more straightforward.

My ideals have changed now. After seeing the prosperity, I want to be a rich man.

"Zhaocheng, if you don't want to be a soldier anymore, who will agree with you?"

After returning from a trip to the county town, Gu Zhaocheng confessed to his family that he had decided not to become a soldier.

Gu Changshan was angry with Gu Zhaocheng for the first time.

Besides being angry at Gu Zhaocheng for making his own decisions, he should also be angry at himself.

I thought that Gu Zhaocheng chose to withdraw in order to give the quota to Zhang Zhenhe.

"Son, being a soldier has always been your ideal. Now you don't even want your future and ideals anymore?"

Compared to Gu Changshan, Na Cunhua felt more distressed.

He also thought that Gu Zhaocheng had wronged himself in order to help Gu Changshan.

"Mom and Dad, you two don't have to worry. It doesn't matter if I don't join the army or not, it doesn't matter whether Uncle Changfeng wants to be laid off. I just don't want to go. Did you hear that I said recently that I want to join the army?"

"If it weren't for being a soldier, why would you get up early every day to exercise?" Na Cunhua followed.

"Exercising has nothing to do with this. I just didn't want to go to the army to exercise, so I exercised at home. Otherwise, you see, when I keep saying that I will go, have I exercised?" Gu Zhaocheng replied.

"Zhaocheng, you said you don't want to be a soldier, then what do you want to do?"

After all, he is still a cheap dad, but he is still different.

Gu Changshan was angry with Gu Zhaocheng, but he quickly controlled himself.

Unlike when I was angry with Zhao Xi, I was really angry and had no scruples.

"I'm already at this age, it's time to join the workforce, and I'm ready to start working and making money."

Gu Zhaocheng looked at Gu Changshan and replied seriously.

"How can you still work when the forest farm is in this situation? You'd better serve as a soldier. I'll beg them to explain the situation and see if they can give you a make-up physical examination."

In Gu Changshan's subconscious mind, Gu Zhaocheng's first job choice was still in the forest farm.

"Dad, please don't go to such trouble. I really don't want to be a soldier. If you want to ask them to give me a physical examination, you might as well become the director of our Sandaogou Forestry Farm and arrange a job for me."

"How is that possible? There are so many people laid off in the field, and I, even the field director, can't arrange a job for you."

Mentioning this matter can help Gu Changshan stop worrying about Gu Zhaocheng not joining the army.

"That's okay. I can go to Bianhe and come back to see you every day. It's better than being in the army and basically not being able to come home or see you for several years."

When the words were almost finished, Gu Zhaocheng started to wink at Xingjie.

"Uncle, I think my eldest brother is really unwilling to become a soldier, so I can't force him too much. I still have to be willing to do this.

There is nothing wrong with starting work early. While you are young, your eldest brother can still go out into the society to make a living. Aren’t the young people in our forest farms all making a living now? "

Xingjie's words were actually quite smart, and Gu Changshan couldn't even refute them.

Smart children are actually smart before they enter society.

This is something Gu Changshan agrees with and often uses to persuade young people in the forest farm during this period.

"Mom and Dad, don't think about this. I have already made up my mind. I will go to Bianhe after the New Year. I brought you gifts back. Take a look at the gifts I bought. Do you like it? ?”

Gu Zhaocheng put the bag he had brought back on the Kang table.

Keeping these gifts is also to buffer the atmosphere.

In order for Gu Changshan and Na Cunhua to accept this matter calmly.

Gu Zhaocheng also made as much preparation as possible.

"You came back with a big bag to buy us gifts. You went to the city and not only bought something for yourself, but you bought it for us." It was time for Cunhua to start chattering.

"Brother, you bought me the comics!"

"No, I didn't forget myself either."

As Gu Zhaoxi was surprised and noisy, the atmosphere immediately changed. (End of chapter)
