Go back to the prosperous days and become a layman

Chapter 1 001 Once it comes, make peace with it

Tang Zhitong sat with his back against a big tree, his eyes sweeping over the banners and flags at the construction site, looking up through the gaps in the leaves and falling on the cloudless sky, with the word "lonely" hanging on his face.

Tang Zhitong was reborn, at the tail end of his first golden decade, and was a temporary worker on a construction site.

Because it is a key project, temporary workers were paid [-] cents a day and were responsible for three square meals a day, while ordinary migrant workers were only paid three square meals a day and received no wages.This temporary job was also a small blessing, otherwise it would not have been Tang Zhitong's turn.

This is a great era, but for a young person in the 21st century, life and work are too difficult.

Fortunately, Tang Zhitong has a travel benefit - a portable warehouse. The warehouse has the property of time and space stagnation (due to the recognition of the owner, no one else can enter except Tang Zhitong, but it can accommodate anything except living people).

Tang Zhitong's job is to clean up the weeds and shrubs that have been dug up on the construction site. Generally speaking, they are turned over several times and exposed to the sun for several days. The weeds are burned directly, and the shrubs are pulled to the kitchen to be used as firewood.

After having a portable warehouse, Tang Zhitong quietly loaded the plants into the warehouse at night and pulled the larger branches to the kitchen.

After a few days, Tang Zhitong's warehouse has been stocked with a lot of weeds and shrubs.

"Are you in a daze again?" Ma San came over and sat down next to Tang Zhitong. He took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth. He lit it with a match, flicked it out and threw it away. Then he stretched his arm upwards, then retracted it and held the cigarette between his index and middle fingers. He took a puff, held the cigarette away from his lips, and the smoke drifted out of his nostrils. "Why do you feel like you have changed?"

Ma San's surname is Ma and his given name is Kejian. He is Han and is the third eldest child in his family. He is the eldest child of Tang Zhitong.Because he had acne when he was a child and had acne marks on his face, the neighbors called him Ma San'er.

"Maybe I died of heat stroke once, so I was stimulated." Tang Zhitong stopped looking at the sky, looked at Masan sincerely, and said, "Thank you, third brother. If it weren't for you, my life would be gone."

"What you said is a slap in the face. I just ask you to work more leisurely in the future. I brought you to do odd jobs, not to risk your life. If you have something wrong, how can I explain it to my family?" Sanyi was wearing a yellow-green uniform, holding a cigarette in his left hand and fanning himself with a boat cap in his right hand. Yes, it was the boat cap that briefly existed in history. "I heard that you changed to the night shift, and you cleaned up very neatly." , you must do what you can and take care of yourself.”

"Third brother, don't worry. After this experience, I have figured it out. Your body is yours. You must take good care of yourself first before you have a chance to contribute." Tang Zhitong smiled at Masan, "If this happens again, The whole family must not cry to death.”

"I feel relieved if you think so." Masan smiled happily, took another deep breath of cigarette, reluctantly pushed the short butt of the cigarette into the soil and extinguished it, "In a few days, all the grass and trees will be cleared away. , it will take more than four months to dig lakes, build bridges and pave roads, etc. After that, I will let you go to the kitchen to do odd jobs."

"Is this appropriate?" Tang Zhitong was a little hesitant. Ma San was in charge of the kitchen here, but these days, virtuous people are favored and relatives are avoided, and doing so can easily have a negative impact on Fa Xiao.

"It's okay. Team Leader Wu knows about your heat stroke. I told him about your home situation two days ago, and he agreed to let you go to the kitchen. But he is responsible for delivering the goods. You have to thank him properly. If he hadn't discovered that you had a heat stroke, you would have been killed later. It's hard to say what the situation is." Tang Zhitong had met Team Leader Wu, whom Ma San mentioned, who was the general person in charge of this phase of the construction site.

After saying that, Masan stood up, patted the dirt on his butt, put on his hat, said that there was still something to do in the kitchen, waved his hand, turned around and left without taking a single cloud with him.

Ma San'er is free and easy, partly because of his personality, and partly because of his good family conditions and confidence.

The ancestors of Ma San were in the Qin industry. Later, a certain generation of ancestors smoked longevity pills and ruined the family. The descendants could only pick up the food and run into the greenhouse.The so-called greenhouse operation is to be a chef at home.

It's easy to lose one's fortune but hard to get started. Several generations of the Ma family have tried to revive their ancestral business, but all failed. However, it is not a problem to make ends meet.

Even so, the Ma family's family conditions are still among the best in the neighborhood.

Later, Mr. Ma simply sent his son to join the army for the sake of his child's future.

Ma San'er has been practicing the ladle and cutting tricks since he was a child, and he is very skilled in it.Although he joined the army for less than a year, he quickly became the leader of the cooking squad due to his excellent personal performance.

When Ma San'er joined the army, it coincided with the change of the military service system. His service also coincided with the victory of the peninsula and the return of the king's division to the court. The personnel were reduced, and things happened to come together. It was very difficult to go further.

How can I thank you for helping me grow up?After thinking about it for a long time, Tang Zhitong had no idea. He looked at his bunt attire and his exposed skin was darkened by the sun. He smiled to himself, saying he should save himself first and then think about gratitude.

If I died suddenly at work, my parents in the previous time and space should be compensated, right?

In the past two days, I had been cursing heaven and earth in my heart, trying to return to the prosperous age.One night he even tried drowning to see if he could go back, but Tang Zhitong in this time and space could not swim.

He didn't die, but he drank some water. Not to mention, the mountain spring water that Aisin Gioro Psoriasis praised was really delicious.

There is nothing important in life except death. Tang Zhitong thought that since he couldn't go back, he had to make some preparations using the existing conditions to make his future life more relaxed.

I learned from the workers that satellites with a yield per mu of land are being launched one after another, and water conservancy projects are also in full swing, but I don’t know if a small blast furnace will be built next...

Time is very tight, throw away that useless sense of gap!Seize the opportunity to stock up on supplies, otherwise there will be many opportunities to drink from the northwest wind in the future!

Tang Zhitong planned to start stocking up on free items, such as the collected weeds, which can be used to raise rabbits in the future; spring water tastes good, so some can be stored in the warehouse; and burned plant ash can be used as fertilizer to grow vegetables in the yard.

As for other supplies, it’s difficult. Money alone is not enough, you also need channels.

Take grain as an example. Nowadays, two unifications have been achieved. Individuals who eat commercial grain can purchase grain at fixed points according to their budget. Now it is possible to buy an extra thirty or fifty kilograms per month. If it is more, it will be difficult.

As for buying it from rural areas and markets, it is not very practical because what is sold is raw grain. Even if it can be purchased, how to process it is a problem.

If it is delayed for another two or three months, the market will basically disappear and there will be no place to buy raw grain.

He now has neither money nor channels. Tang Zhitong knows that it is impossible for him to steal money. He has his own bottom line, otherwise what is the difference between him and an animal?
I heard that literati are very popular and are paid well.It's just that most literati have character, but their bones are too soft to be able to hold a job with strong bones.

Tang Zhitong looked at the sky. There was really no good way to do it. Who wants his family to be ordinary? He could only act according to the situation and try his best to create opportunities!
Tang Zhitong has seen some of the protagonists before, and the BUFFs are full: after time travel, the parents of the senior official died in the line of duty, leaving cash and an empty house, the protagonist made meritorious service and retired from the army and received awards, signed in to get meat, eggs and sugar, space cultivation and medicine production, and street arrangements were made immediately Entering the factory and catching Dieter became famous.

In the end, he lived a careless life of immorality, having three wives and four concubines, stealing wives, sleeping with widows, having affairs, speculating, and working hard to sell meat and grain in exchange for money to buy antiques.

As a flexible employee with no house and no land, in this era, one by one blatantly became the lords of the old society in front of the Forbidden City.

Tsk, tsk, tsk, the thieves really dare to think!
This reminded Tang Zhitong of a book review: There used to be two people who were inseparable. One was named Zhen, named Xia Ji, and the other was named Ba, named Luan Xie. Passers-by would shout like this: Zhen Xia Ji, Ba Luan Xie!
The last thing people want to admit in this life is that they are ordinary.

Tang Zhitong has been severely beaten by society and has lived in two lives. He clearly realizes that not only does he have an ordinary family, but he is also an ordinary person.

For now, poor families are those whose family income per capita is less than eight yuan. [Interviews on Modern and Contemporary Chinese Society and Culture, 2016 edition, page 313] Although there are documents requiring that the income of poor families be supplemented to eight yuan per capita, there are many difficulties in implementation and the implementation is flexible.

Tang's father was bedridden for more than half a year and could only receive 60% of his monthly salary, which was about 25 yuan. Plus Tang's mother made matchboxes in her spare time, the family's monthly income was only 30 yuan.

With 30 yuan to support a family of five, even if Tang's father's medicine expenses were fully reimbursed by his employer, life would still be tight. What's more, there are three students at home, and tuition fees, pens, paper and notebooks are all expenses.

Tang's mother was anxious about this, but she had no idea what to do.He even discussed with Tang's father that his daughter should drop out of school and work odd jobs to support Tang Zhitong's studies...
