To be honest, even if Lin Panpan didn't have a college degree, she could still make her first pot of gold, and a lot of it.

Because she still had an idea of ​​how things would develop in the next few decades.

In 1973, the industry was the main industry, and becoming a worker was everyone's dream.

But becoming a worker is not the bonus of this era. The real bonus is doing business.

Only by becoming a businessman can you earn more, but the times do not allow that. In 1973, the situation was still very tense.

However, some small vendors have begun to appear, selling homemade handicrafts and agricultural products, such as bamboo baskets, vegetables, eggs, etc.

These small vendors usually use their spare time or surplus agricultural and sideline products to exchange for some daily necessities or a small amount of cash within the scope permitted by policy.

For example, selling tofu is allowed now. As long as it is not reported by others, there is generally no big problem.

Even if someone reports you, you will only be fined and will not be paraded through the streets.

Now is the perfect time for me to go to school and learn medical skills from the medicine lady while attending school.

In fact, Lin Panpan had suffered enough from her lack of education. In her previous life, she was often ridiculed by her peers because of this. Even though she later owned her own hotel, she was still called a nouveau riche by many people.

Several brothers unconditionally agreed to her suggestion. Lin Weiguo looked at her and said, "I'm just afraid that this will put a lot of pressure on you."

Lin Panpan laughed and said:

"Why should I feel any pressure? We'll have food and money. We just need to improve our education now so that we can have unlimited possibilities in the future.

Only after our academic qualifications are improved can we learn more skills and our village will become better and better.

Of course, it’s not just us. Everyone in Linjia Village will have to go to school.”

Lin Feng looked at her with his eyes shining:

"Auntie, are you serious? Can I go back to school like this?"

In fact, I was very eager to go to school when I was a child. I was very unwilling to drop out of junior high school. At first, I planned to continue studying by selling medicinal herbs.

But the pressure of life is too great..."

Lin Feng has two younger brothers and two younger sisters. His father is not in good health and his mother works very hard. He can only rely on his mother to earn a few work points in the brigade.

He had to take a break in his second year of junior high school and follow the medicine lady to collect medicinal herbs. The medicine lady would also treat his father, but his father's illness was really unusual, chronic renal failure, and this disease could only be treated by nursing.

Lin Panpan looked at him and said, "Lin Feng, work hard. I will definitely do what I say. Hey! You guys follow me and you will have a good life in the future."

Lin Feng nodded happily: "Auntie, I will listen to you from now on. You are my boss."

Fatty chuckled, "Hey, Brother Feng, are you finally convinced?"

Lin Feng smiled helplessly: "Yes! I am definitely convinced."

Lin Panpan said softly: "We're here, let's get off the car!"

Qin Ran placed Qin An at Grandma Yao's house. Qin An had been obedient since she was young, and she wasn't afraid of Grandma Yao at all. The two of them had company.

Qin Ran took out the key and opened the iron gate directly, and then the truck drove directly to the steel plant.

Lin Weiguo lowered his voice and asked, "What kind of place is this? Why is it so shabby? What are we doing here?"

Lin Panpan parked in the driveway:

“This used to be a steel mill, but it’s now abandoned. Wasn’t it planned to build a workshop here before?

There was a lot of cement, bricks, and various building materials left behind, but no one would use them anyway.

We are planning to build a house on the mountain, and with these, we won’t have to buy anything.”

Lin Weiguo frowned and said, "Isn't this inappropriate? Wouldn't it be terrible if someone saw us?"

Lin Panpan looked at him and said:

"This steel mill has been abandoned for a long time, and these things have gradually turned into garbage. We might as well use them.

Besides, do we have money to buy bricks?"

Linjia Village was poor. How poor was it? Every household built their houses out of mud bricks, and over time, cracks began to appear in the bricks.

The thatched roof had become worn out and whenever it rained, water would drip from the house.

Whenever it snows heavily, the accumulated snow can crush the adobe houses at any time.

There were several families in the village whose adobe houses collapsed under the weight of snow, and the people inside were buried alive in an instant.

Every household longs to rebuild a solid house, but the cost of rebuilding is really unaffordable for them.

The huge number made them feel daunted.

Lin Panpan's house is made of wood, which is considered very nice in the village, and is covered with tiles.

It cost more than three hundred yuan to build this house, which was a considerable expense at the time. The wood was transported back from the mountains with great effort, and the family was in debt for more than ten years.

Lin Weimin quickly said, "Alright, let's stop wasting time and start moving! My goodness, where did we get all this cement, sand, and bricks?"

There were hundreds of bags of cement alone, and many bricks. Lin Weihua was shocked and said, "I'm afraid we won't be able to move them all today."

A group of people started to load things. Lin Panpan looked at them and said, "I plan to make two trips today and move as much as I can. What do you think?"

Lin Weiguo nodded, and more than twenty people started to move.

Lin Panpan and Qin Ran started walking around the factory. Qin Ran smiled and said, "Actually, I rarely came here before, and I was a little scared."

Lin Panpan looked at the weeds that were taller than a person and said, "It's really scary. I wonder if there are any snakes in this grass?"

“I’m not afraid of snakes, I’m afraid of ghosts…” Qin Ran muttered softly.

Lin Panpan laughed and said:

"You've died once, so what are you afraid of?

Besides, is there any ghost scarier than a human being? "

Qin Ran's nose felt sore when she heard this.

"Yes! Sometimes people are scarier than ghosts. The human heart is the scariest thing. One wrong step will lead to all the wrong steps.

When I was working in the textile factory, I was promoted to team leader and I thought I was so awesome.

No one could compare to me, but later I realized, what am I? In front of those people, I am nothing."

Lin Panpan looked at Qin Ran and said:

"Sister Qin Ran, do you believe me?

I'm studying medicine now, and maybe one day I'll be able to cure burns like yours."

Qin Ran suddenly smiled, and tears slowly flowed down her face.

"Panpan, it's impossible. How can burns be cured? I know you want to comfort me, but you don't have to. I'm not as fragile as you think.

Over the years... I have figured it out. I will live for Qin An in this life. If she needs me, I will take care of her until she no longer needs me.

I will just find a quiet place, grow some vegetables and crops, and live a good life.

I'm not clean anymore, so even if I did have plastic surgery, what would it matter?"
