A Time Travel Effort in the 70s

Chapter 101 The furniture is coming back

Shen Jiaren took her tools and walked to the canal next to the planting task field. She found that the water was very clear, but she didn't see any animals in it. She didn't know if it was because the relevant task collection was not triggered, which resulted in only being able to see water and not any living things in the water.

Shen Jiaren squatted beside the ditch and started to cut apples, but she found that there was no need to cut the apples here because some of them grew beside the ditch and some grew by the water, so she could just scoop them up.

Seeing this, Shen Jiaren took the sickle and hooked the bait from the water into the basket. She did this for a while and then moved to another place. Soon, the basket was filled with wild vegetables.

Shen Jiaren shook the basket twice to shake out some of the water in it. Then she picked up the basket and spread the apples in the basket on the ground in the courtyard of the manor.

After Shen Jiaren finished paving the ground, she went to the canal beside the manor mission field and started fishing for apples.

She went back and forth several times. After the ground of the courtyard of the manor was covered with apples, Shen Jiaren stopped hooking apples and went to the warehouse behind the manor.

I plan to separate some of the cucumbers, at least in the warehouse outside the manor, so that it will be easier to take them out in the future.

Shen Jiaren first went to the warehouse of the courtyard house and took out an electronic scale. Don’t ask why she had this thing. The reason was that when she was planting the garden next to the courtyard house, the blogger Shen Jiaren followed said that when planting flowers and plants, the amount of fertilizer should be calculated based on the sowing area, so Shen Jiaren bought an electronic scale. However, when Shen Jiaren was planting the plants in the garden, she was very anxious. When buying seedlings, she clicked on the option of guaranteed planting and survival, and found a local seedling manufacturer to buy directly and have them planted directly.

Therefore, poor students have a lot of stationery, no flowers to plant, but a lot of tools.

Fortunately, I am using it now. I wonder if this is a reflection of the benefit of having an umbrella when the weather is sunny.

However, the only thing to note is that this electronic scale is electronic, and nowadays most people use weight scales, which definitely cannot be taken outside.

Shen Jiaren walked to the warehouse outside the manor with the electronic scale and started to weigh out the decimeters.

This time Shen Jiaren learned her lesson. She directly found a coarse cloth bag that she had bought before in the hungry warehouse of the manor. Each bag could hold twenty kilograms. Shen Jiaren directly piled up fifty bags. This way, it would be easier to sell them in the future. However, the only thing to note is that this bag cannot be taken out.

Shen Jiaren looked at the cloth bag filled with rice and thought, "Forget it," she just went near the rice granary and started to arrange the rice in piles according to its weight.

In this way, when I go to sell near the staff quarters, although I cannot know the quantity each time, at least I can know the total amount. Controlling the total amount is also a way.

Thinking of this, Shen Jiaren started to weigh the rice again. She made 20 piles of 20 jin each, and 30 piles of 10 jin each. After finishing these piles, Shen Jiaren stopped weighing rice. It was not because she didn't want to, but mainly because she felt dizzy and her waist hurt from squatting.

Shen Jiaren stood up, walked to the warehouse where the cucumbers were placed on the rack and started weighing the cucumbers.

Although I don’t know what the current price of cucumbers is, what if I can sell them tomorrow? After all, this is also a supplementary income.

In addition to weighing out the ten kilograms of cucumbers that the young man wanted, Shen Jiaren also weighed out five more ten-kilogram portions in case someone else wanted cucumbers to make pickles or something like that.

After weighing the cucumbers, Shen Jiaren began to count the eggs.

First count out the twenty eggs that Sister Su Hongmei wanted and put them aside, then count out the fifty eggs that Aunt Dai Hongxiu wanted.

After finishing all this, Shen Jiaren weighed a pound of mushrooms on the shelf and put them aside. She then took out some stems and put them in her pocket, and prepared to go out to cut the mushrooms into slices, dry them and preserve them.

After Shen Jiaren left the manor, she sat under the awning and began to check whether the mushrooms she had dried earlier were doing well or not. After all, Liu Hui had said when he came to her house last time that if you don't know how to cut mushrooms, you can use wood chips to clean the dirt off the mushrooms and then dry them whole.

Shen Jiaren took a look at the mushrooms under the rain shed, which seemed to have been dried, so she went back to the main house and took out the oil paper she had used when buying candy, wrapped the dried mushrooms, and placed them in the warehouse in the courtyard of the manor.

Shen Jiaren took the mushrooms that she had just taken out from the warehouse outside the manor, cleaned the dirt off the mushrooms with a piece of wood, and then placed them on the wooden basket for drying mushrooms.

After Shen Jiaren arranged the mushrooms, she sat under the awning and began to rest.

In fact, Shen Jiaren thinks this kind of life is pretty good.

Shen Jiaren looked at the stars in the sky and suddenly remembered what Liu Hui had told her a few days ago, asking her whether she should consider the matter of the teachers for the winter literacy class.

The teacher of the winter literacy class is actually a small matter. The main thing is that this teacher may be transferred to a primary school teacher in the team later.

This teacher does not have to work on normal days, but receives a basic salary and allowances. Even during the autumn harvest, he has to participate in the harvest.

As Shen Jiaren was looking at the stars in the sky, she was actually thinking: if you ask her if she wants to stop working, she will definitely say no, because salted fish is the best, you can turn it over and over again and it tastes great with rice.

But even as salted fish, it requires certain capital. First, it must be a fish. Second, it must be able to withstand salting. Third, it must be able to withstand repeated exposure to sunlight.

Judging from Shen Jiaren's current situation, she feels that she is not worthy of being a salted fish, because the goal of being a salted fish is a goal you can only achieve after you regard yourself as a fish.

And now, Shen Jiaren hasn't even figured out who she is, let alone goals and ideals.

The most important thing is that Shen Jiaren doesn’t like children, and she doesn’t like being a teacher even more.

Because the ability to be a teacher, in Shen Jiaren's opinion, in addition to preaching, imparting knowledge and solving doubts, what is more important is to teach by example. Shen Jiaren feels that, let alone teaching by example, even just preaching, imparting knowledge and solving doubts, Shen Jiaren cannot satisfy any of them. Even though Shen Jiaren comes from the future, and even though Shen Jiaren has college experience, she can't achieve it.

Because before, when she had dinner with her college classmates, she had seen how their college classmates treated her child, and how her child was full of questions and energy. Shen Jiaren felt that she could not cope with such a life.

Therefore, Shen Jiaren did not like being a teacher. Even though she had talked with Goudan and Erya from Liu Hui's family about studying together, what they communicated about was studying together and discussing with each other, not teaching.

In recent years, Shen Jiaren has received food subsidies from her father and the manor system, so Shen Jiaren really doesn't want to take up other people's luck, let alone influence other people's lives.

Even though Shen Jiaren knew that the world of the future would change, people would have to keep changing in order to adapt to the development of the world.

But Shen Jiaren couldn't tell the people around her, and she had no way to explain her differences when they looked into it more closely.

Moreover, Shen Jiaren also wanted to rely on the manor to save money in the next few years, then buy some houses, make some investments, and become a rich woman without doing anything. She didn't want to work, she just wanted to sit back and enjoy the fruits of her labor.

If Liu Hui comes to give her money later, Shen Jiaren decides to tell Liu Hui about this decision.

Shen Jiaren felt that she had not made any further progress with Liu Hui yet. Oh, by the way, she did not pay the other party for setting the trap last time. She would make it up to him later.

So Shen Jiaren didn't want to owe Liu Hui too much, because the foundation of all relationships is built on the equality of both parties.

Shen Jiaren looked at the main star of the Big Dipper in the sky that kept twinkling and felt that she was really thinking too much and a little too far ahead.

Even though she knew about the major events that would happen in the future world, Shen Jiaren didn't remember many details.

Shen Jiaren felt that no matter how things developed, science and technology were the primary productive forces, and the right way was for her to study hard, get into college, and get out of the mountains.

Thinking of this, Shen Jiaren felt that now that the books were back, she should put studying the books and planning for the future college entrance examination on the agenda.

As for making money, selling grain is not the right way, but other things can be considered, especially pine nuts and eggs. The most important thing is eggs, which are very popular, and in rich people's homes, eggs are completely consumables. You can still follow up with a wave.

The more Shen Jiaren thought about it, the more she felt that there were a lot of things to do, but she had done very little so far.

Shen Jiaren took out a notebook from the manor and wrote down her goals, as well as things that could be done to achieve them. She broke down and understood the goals to see what would be a better way to solve them.

Shen Jiaren wrote and drew for a long time. The more she wrote, the more she wrote, and the more her thoughts became divergent.

Shen Jiaren was writing passionately when she heard someone knocking at the door. After Shen Jiaren put the notebook into the courtyard warehouse of the manor, she walked to the door and started asking who it was.

The dog Duoduo was seen circling around the gate. When Shen Jiaren saw Duoduo like this, she became curious. Could the dog recognize the person at the gate?

Before Shen Jiaren could ask for details, she heard a voice from outside the door, "It's me, Liu Hui, open the door."

When Shen Jiaren heard the sound outside the door, she opened the door and let Liu Hui into the yard.

As soon as Liu Hui entered the room, Duoduo started to circle around him. Seeing Duoduo shaking his tail like it was about to break, Shen Jiaren couldn't help but ask curiously, "Does Duoduo know you? Didn't you two only spend one day together? Why is he so attached to you?"

"Maybe it's because I smell like its parents."

Shen Jiaren nodded and said nothing more.

Seeing this, Liu Hui continued, "I came to see you for two reasons. One is about the things you asked me to bring. I have already brought them. The other party gave me thirty yuan and a receipt. Take a look."

After Liu Hui finished speaking, he took out thirty yuan and a receipt from his pocket and handed them to Shen Jiaren.

After Shen Jiaren took the things, she was looking at what was written on the receipt. After all, this was the first time she saw someone write a receipt for her.

Shen Jiaren was studying the format of the receipt when she heard Liu Hui ask, "What do you think about the teacher thing I told you about last time?"

When Shen Jiaren heard Liu Hui ask her, she raised her head and said embarrassedly, "I thought about it and decided to forget it. You have to eat what you can. If I can pass the exam, I will go; if I can't, I won't go."

After hearing the answer he expected, Liu Hui replied, "Okay, I get it. Then you can study if you have nothing to do. Didn't you say last time that you would study with Goudan and Erya? Why didn't I see you today?"

"I went to town today and didn't come back until the afternoon, so I didn't go to study with Goudan and Erya."

"So you're not going to do your work points? How are you going to eat and drink?"

"I have a subsidy book, and the money I get from the subsidy is enough for me to live on, so work points are dispensable to me."

"Okay, just keep this in mind. Also, the furniture you ordered is ready. I'll deliver it to you when you have time. But I might bring the carpenter's people with me, because some of the things are too big for me to move alone. When they come, you might have to pay them some extra labor fees."

"Okay, so how much money should I prepare this time?"

When Liu Hui heard Shen Jiaren's words, he thought of the last time he delivered something to her. Shen Jiaren's one, two, three, four, couldn't help but smile and said, "This time it will cost twenty-five yuan. Just be ready to pay it."

When Shen Jiaren heard the price was so neat, she couldn't help but ask, "Does this price include your hard work fee?"

When Liu Hui heard Shen Jiaren's words, he laughed out loud, "No, if you want it, you have to give me one dollar. Fifty cents is for the village, and fifty cents is for me. Do you think this price is satisfactory?"

When Shen Jiaren heard Liu Hui's smile, she squinted her eyes and replied, "No, I have to give you three dollars, because in addition to your running around, there is also the money you earned from digging traps, chopping wood, and tidying up the yard last time."

Liu Hui looked at Shen Jiaren who was seriously calculating the bill and couldn't help but say, "Three dollars is not enough, it should be five dollars. After all, look at how much I have done for you.

Five dollars is not too much, right? "

Shen Jiaren nodded and agreed, "Sure, sure, as long as you can name a price."

When Liu Hui heard this, he put away the smile on his face and answered seriously, "Five dollars was just a joke. Just give me three dollars."

Shen Jiaren shook her head after hearing this and said, "No, I have to give you five dollars because you really worked hard."

Liu Hui looked at Shen Jiaren's serious expression and lowered his head, thinking that this young educated youth Shen Jiaren was a little bit amusing and couldn't tell what was a joke and what was serious, but he didn't know what to say, for fear that the more he spoke, the more seriously the other party would take it.

Seeing that Liu Hui didn't say anything else, Shen Jiaren took out five yuan from the thirty yuan and handed it to Liu Hui.
