Take Arada back to the past

Chapter 240, Zhang Shaoting changes career
Seeing the eldest sister doing something there, Yang Xiaole was about to go back to the room.

Just as he was about to leave, the eldest sister thought of something and said to him: "Hey, by the way, there is a letter from you. It is from Teacher Luo, and it is in the drawer of the incense table."

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole felt strange.

Luo Jinping?
How did he know he was here?

When I came to the incense table, I opened the drawer where I usually kept letters, and saw a letter lying inside.

After opening it, I saw a piece of letter paper and some tickets and money inside.

Seeing these things, Yang Xiaole became suspicious and opened the letter strangely.

After reading it, Yang Xiaole smiled and put the things away.

It turns out that Luo Jinping couldn't buy food a year ago, so he gave him some food and meat.

This is a letter of thanks, and by the way, I gave myself the money and tickets.

Of course, there were no meat tickets, so the high price gave me some money.

It's done!
I just thought of giving it as a gift and never thought of asking for money. Unexpectedly, Luo Jinping went to the village to find out his address and sent the things over.

"Why do you still have food stamps and money?"

The eldest sister asked strangely.

"Oh, it's nothing! Teacher Luo gave it to me."

After saying that, he handed her the food stamps and money: "Keep it yourself. When you go to the breakfast shop in the morning, buy some food. Don't let mom see it! I won't care if I see my mom being taken away."

The eldest sister wiped her hand on the apron and took it happily.

"Why did Teacher Luo give you money and tickets?"

"Why do you care so much! Do you want it? Don't give it back to me."

"Yes, why not!"

The eldest sister quickly collected the tickets and continued cooking with a smile.

Yang Xiaole saw this and was about to enter the room.

Suddenly the curtain at the door opened and dad walked in.

"Director Zhang, come in and talk!"

Behind him was Director Zhang, the director of the neighborhood committee.

Director Zhang, who was slightly fat and wearing a denim jacket, walked in expressionlessly.

"I'm cooking! Oh, there's also Yuqian. This is delicious! When there was no food in the past, this thing could save lives!"

After Director Zhang came in, he looked at the busy work in the room and said with a smile.

When the eldest sister saw this, she responded with a smile.

Yang Guangzhi motioned for her to sit down and said, "Director Zhang, sit down! If you have anything to say, I'm still busy up front. I'll have to come over in a while."

After hearing this, Director Zhang sat down and looked around the room.

Yang Xiaole saw this scene, thought about it for a while, and probably understood what it meant.

The first batch of downsizing is coming.

really!

Director Zhang sat there, sighing first, and then slowly said: "Comrade Guangzhi, I came to see you today for something. Today, the street office held a meeting, and the Planning Commission and the Ministry of Labor decided on the production plan according to the current situation. It is recommended to reduce the number of employees nationwide by 509 million, mainly targeting temporary workers, contract workers and redundant apprentices from rural areas since January 58, 1."

Yang Guangzhi frowned when he heard this.

He said nothing and listened quietly.

Seeing his expression, Director Zhang also said with a troubled face: "Of course we have a lot of places in Sijiu City. Three of your family members are apprentices. Now the country is in trouble. I hope that there will be someone for your family." Respond to the call and actively cooperate.”

Speaking of this, Director Zhang smiled and said: "Of course, I don't mean that your whole family will go back, but three of your family are apprentices. You have to go back one or two, right? I also guarantee you that once the city When recruiting workers, we will definitely give priority to those of you who have made contributions to the city.”

After hearing these words, several people stopped what they were doing.

Xiaoli blinked and asked the eldest sister: "Sister, are we going back to the countryside again?"

Hearing this, the eldest sister glared at her: "Master, please don't interrupt."

"Oh!!"

Xiaoli pursed her lips and said softly, but did not dare to say anything more.

Yang Xiaole stood aside and watched this scene, knowing that there was nothing his father could do.

This is not the kind of thing that will happen in future generations. If you fire me, I will sue you.

In people's minds at this time, when the policy is good, it is an honor for you to go to the city to work as a worker. When the environment is not good, you have to go back wherever you want.

Except for a very few people who make trouble.

Although most of them are unwilling in their hearts, they still have no choice but to go back.

Because a response to the call is enough.

And they are not afraid that you won't go back. It's very simple. If you cancel your ration book and you can't buy food in the city, you have to go back obediently.

But it's not there yet.

Yang Guangzhi said nothing, but took out a cigarette and smoked it with an expressionless expression.

Upon seeing this, Director Zhang said: "Comrade Guangzhi, you think about who will go back. I will go to other homes first."

After saying that, he stood up and left directly.

The few people left behind didn't dare to speak.

Yang Xiaole looked at Yang Guangzhi, who was smoking a cigarette there, and said with a smile: "Okay, Dad, you go to your class, we are busy up front! I will handle this matter for you."

When Yang Guangzhi heard this, he frowned: "You handle it? How do you handle it? I'll think of a way!"

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole rolled his eyes.

I ignored him and returned to the room.

When I came to the house, I took out a dozen pieces of letter paper and pondered for a while before starting to write.

After pondering for a while, I finally simply wrote down a few lines.

From a month ago, when he knew that Yang Guangping and his family were going abroad, he had been thinking about how to do it.

It doesn't feel very good no matter how you do it.

After thinking about it for a while, I finally mentioned Sun Dianying's treasure and the 8 taels of gold military expenditure.

The direction pointed to Yang Guangping.

Not serious, but enough for him to stay and live a 'good' life here.

After all, the issue of treasure and gold movement is not yet a political issue, but it is enough for him to stay here.

After writing it, put it in an envelope and put it away in the space.

Then he took out a dozen thick pieces of letter paper.

This is the plan he has made for Hong Kong Island for such a long time and is ready to be sent to Huang Qiujing.

Still need money to make money.

After looking over it carefully and confirming that there was no big problem, he walked out of the room.

When I came out, my father had already left, leaving ashes all over the floor.

"I'll go out for a while!"

He said hello and left directly.

The eldest sister and the others just took one look at him and ignored him. Everyone was used to this guy being away from home all day long.

After coming out, I rode my bike out of the compound and headed towards Xidan.

Arriving near the police station where Ye Shutian was located, he tightened his hat, put on a mask and went directly to the Security Section.

He tapped lightly on the window.

"This is for you, Director Ye."

The window opened, and Yang Xiaole spoke to the people inside with a Sichuan accent.

Without waiting for the other party to speak, he left directly.

"Hey~~"

The other party took a look at this and hurriedly chased him out.

But all he saw was his back among the crowd, and he disappeared from sight after a while.

The people from the security department came back suspiciously.

Looking at the content above, I felt suspicious for a moment and said to the person next to me: "Xiao Liu, please register and I will send it to Director Ye."

The young man next to him nodded.

I took a pen and paper and recorded it.

When Ye Shutian received the letter, he felt strange for a while. When he opened the envelope and saw the contents inside, he frowned.

He asked the person who delivered the letter: "Who gave this?"

"I don't know. I just left after delivering the things."

"Did you see the face clearly?"

"No, I'm covering it very tightly. I only know one man. But his accent sounds like someone from Sichuan Province or Guizhou Province."

Ye Shutian was confused when he heard the question. He thought about it for a while and stood up: "Okay, you go back first. I'll go to the director."

The other party left immediately upon seeing this.

After he left, Ye Shutian thought for a while, then went back to the filing cabinet at the back and pulled out a file.

After thinking for a moment, he took his things and left the office.

Yang Xiaole didn't care about the situation behind it. He would know the result tomorrow, or go there to have a look at night.

He ran all the way to Hua Yourong's side.

He knocked lightly on the door.

"Hey, Xiaole, here you go!"

Seeing him, Hua Yourong felt happy for a while.

"Come on, come with me to the post and telecommunications office and send me a letter. Didn't I tell my aunt about this last time? She's not off work, right? Then you can send it for me."

Hearing this, Hua Yourong reacted: "Oh, you said you wanted to send a letter to Hong Kong Island! Okay, I'll go with you!"

After saying that, he locked the door to the yard.

When Yang Xiaole saw this, he took her to the post office on his bicycle.

Although he has a Hong Kong ID card and passport, he still doesn't want to use it casually. In fact, he can also receive it there.

After all, there are so many people sending letters to foreign countries these days.Especially in places like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou.

But when he thought about the postman calling for letters from abroad every few days, he gave up.

Su Ling's identity is the most suitable.

Anyway, the composition of their family is already like this, and they have been exchanging letters with outsiders for many years.

The only thing we can do is catch their family collecting wool.

As for the future, he is confident that the two of them can be properly arranged in this chaotic era.

"Xiao Le, do you have any relatives in Hong Kong Island?"

While walking on the road, Hua Yourong asked doubtfully.

"Didn't I say that that day? I have a friend over there on Hong Kong Island, and I will send him a letter."

Hua Yourong nodded when he heard this, "Then why did you ask us to send a letter? Did you do something bad?"

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole rolled his eyes.

"What bad things can I do!"

Hua Yourong sat in the back and straightened her pigtails and smiled: "Hehe, it's okay. Even if you do something bad, I won't tell anyone else. I'll keep the secret for you."

Yang Xiaole made a joke: "Hey, don't talk nonsense! If I get caught, I will tell you to come out."

Hua Yourong pouted and snorted, "I told you to keep your secret, but you still want to expose me. You are a traitor."

The two of them chatted and laughed and rushed to the post office.

When they arrived at the place, Yang Xiaole did not go in, but handed the letter to her: "Here, the address has been filled in, you just buy the stamps and affix them."

He handed him a dollar.

Foreign letters cost 10 cents, and 2 cents for every [-] grams that are overweight. This money is enough.

"Yang Hao? Huang Qiujing? Female?"

Hua Yourong saw the name on the letter and asked curiously.

She naturally knew Yang Hao's name, it was Yang Xiaole's external name. As for Huang Qiujing, it was obviously a girl's name!
Yang Xiaole nodded: "Yes, it's a woman."

"Oh~~Then I'll send you a letter."

Hua Yourong nodded slightly, took the letter and went in.

While waiting inside to post a letter, Hua Yourong felt a little panicked in her heart, but she didn't know why, but she couldn't be happy for a moment.

After working on it for a while, I bought eighty-cent stamps and mailed the letter.

"How's it going? Has it been sent?"

Seeing her coming out, Yang Xiaole asked.

Hua Yourong nodded: "Yes, it's done. Let's go home!"

Yang Xiaole nodded, looked at her expression, and asked curiously: "What's wrong? Did something happen?"

He thought something happened when he sent the letter!
Hearing this, Hua Yourong tilted her head and thought for a while, and finally shook her head in confusion: "No!"

"Really not?"

"No!"

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole finally nodded: "Okay, let's go, I'll take you back."

Hua Yourong nodded and got into the car.

At this time, there were already a lot of people commuting to get off work on the road, and it was a huge area.

When I returned to the compound, I saw Su Ling opening the door.

"Aunt!"

"Xiao Le? Tiantian, what are you doing?"

Su Ling just opened the door and turned around when she heard the sound.

Yang Xiaole stopped the car and said with a smile: "Oh, I just went to send a letter."

"Oh, come in and sit down!"

Seeing this, Su Ling opened the door with a smile and motioned for him to enter.

"Auntie, I won't go in. I forgot to give you this. This is medicine! I haven't given it to you for a long time."

Yang Xiaole took out a salt water bottle from the universal cloth bag and handed it to her.

Then he asked: "Auntie, how are you doing recently?"

I've been drinking this well water for half a year, and I don't know if it's cured!
Su Ling took it and said with a smile: "It's much better. Last time I went to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor didn't find anything. It should be considered fine. I just need to check it regularly."

Yang Xiaole nodded: "That's good, you can drink this first."

Then he thought of something and asked her: "By the way, Auntie, do you have enough food? How much food can 100 yuan exchange for now?"

The food stamps attached to overseas remittance coupons have always been somewhat volatile.

When Su Ling heard this, she asked strangely: "What's wrong? Is your family still short of food? There is still some white flour at home. I'll get it for you."

"No, let me ask!"

"Oh, I still have it at home. Now 100 RMB of overseas remittance coupons can only be exchanged for 12 kilograms of grain, not as much as before. But this has nothing to do with us. We will not be able to get overseas remittance coupons in the future."

Yang Xiaole looked at Su Ling's lonely eyes and said nothing.

Just nodded.

"Okay, I understand. Auntie, next time a letter from Hong Kong is sent, just give it to my master and I will get it then."

"Well, I understand. If there is one, I will send it to Mr. Suo."

Yang Xiaole nodded when he saw this: "Okay, Auntie, I'll leave first! Tiantian, I'm leaving."

After speaking, he said hello and left.

Su Ling watched the other party leave, and then looked at her silent daughter next to her, feeling strange for a while.

"What's wrong? Did Xiaole make you angry?"

How could she know what was going on with her daughter?
I saw it at a glance.

In the past, when Yang Xiaole left, she would happily say hello, but today she said nothing.

Hua Yourong shook her head in confusion: "No, how could he make me angry?"

"What's going on? Are students being bullied? Tell mom!"

Su Ling is very concerned about her daughter's inner problems.

After all, my mother and I are here, and my husband is missing.

"No! Oh, Mom, I'm really fine."

Hua Yourong had a strange look on his face, and then went straight into the house.

Su Ling looked at her daughter's expression with a strange look on her face and pushed the car back to the compound.

After I came back, I kept asking questions.

But no matter how much I asked, I didn't get it out.

With concern, I began to guide her step by step about what happened and what she did today.

In the end, she was surprised to find that her daughter was a little jealous because Yang Xiaole wrote a letter to a girl from Hong Kong.

Tangled for a long time.

She was originally going to give some guidance, but after thinking about it, she didn't say anything in the end.

The child is still young, not even ignorant. In her opinion, this is not emotion.

After Yang Xiaole left, he came to Suo Ye and was not prepared to go in.

But when he saw a car parked at the door, he stopped curiously.

After some thought, I returned it and went in.

After entering, they saw Zhang Shaoting and Suo Ye sitting in the main room, their faces a little serious, and Zhang Shaoting was still wearing military uniforms.

"Master, senior brother, you are here too!"

After Yang Xiaole came in, he smiled and said hello.

The two nodded upon hearing the words.

Zhang Shaoting saw this and said directly: "Xiao Le, master, I will leave it to you from now on. I may rarely be able to come back."

"Ah? What's going on? Are you going back to the Northeast?"

The other party came from the Northeast, he still knew this.

Zhang Shaoting nodded: "Yes, I will go back to the Northeast, but this time I will change my career there."

"Ah, changing careers? Wouldn't it be great to change careers in Kyoto?"

Zhang Shaoting has a very powerful leader, and he knows this. As a security guard, there shouldn't be much of a problem returning to his hometown!
Hearing this, Zhang Shaoting smiled bitterly and said, "I think so too! After we change careers, we will go to the Great Northern Wilderness."

"The Production and Construction Corps?"

Yang Xiaole was surprised.

Zhang Shaoting was surprised: "Do you know the Production and Construction Corps?"

Then he shook his head: "No, it's the General Administration of Agricultural Reclamation. We are transferring to the Beidahuang area to engage in agricultural production. The Production and Construction Corps has not yet been established there."

"oh, I see!"

Yang Xiaole nodded.

Then he asked curiously: "Then why are you going? Are you staying in the agency?"

"No, the state-owned farm needs to be reclaimed there. For the time being, I have been transferred there to lead a battalion and establish a battalion-level farm."

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole frowned: "Isn't this right? Your level... shouldn't be this, right? Why did you drop half a level?"

Zhang Shaoting was silent for a moment, and then said: "We are changing jobs, so we will be downgraded by half a level. This is only temporary."

Yang Xiaole nodded upon hearing this.

Don't understand the reason.

Great Northern Wilderness?
Is it so early?
I'll look for the newspaper another day.

After thinking for a while, he asked, "When are you leaving?"

"I'm here to say goodbye to Master on the train tonight."

After Zhang Shaoting finished speaking, he looked at Suo Ye who was sitting at the top.
