Reborn in 1965, I can obtain resources just by sweeping the floor.
Chapter 2 Forced to Go to the Countryside
"System, please introduce yourself. What does this change mean? Does it mean that if I turn a horizontal stick into a vertical one, the change is successful? System... System Master..."
Unfortunately, the aloof system remained aloof, and finally, Su Chen couldn't take it anymore and replied, "Host level is too low to have query privileges. Please study it yourself."
"System, did you forget something, like the newbie gift pack or something?"
"No, we don't have that!"
"You can have this!"
"This really doesn't happen!"
"Okay, you're the system, you're awesome!"
No longer bothered by the attributes on the panel or the system issues, Su Chen took out rice directly from his backpack. Soon, the fragrant rice porridge was ready. Although there were no side dishes, Su Chen still ate it with great relish.
After finishing two large bowls of thick rice porridge, I checked the panel and my mental strength increased to 4, while the rest remained unchanged.
After letting out a burp, Su Chen excitedly cleaned up the pots and pans, then waited confidently for the notification sound. However, after waiting for more than ten minutes, he still didn't receive any response.
"System! Experts! Can you hear me? Someone explain this to me: I clearly cleaned up the pots and pans, doesn't that count as a change?"
Unfortunately, the system was too aloof, or perhaps his level was simply too low. The system was too lazy to pay attention to him and showed no intention of acknowledging him at all. In the end, Su Chen could only conclude that he had messed things up himself. Although tidying it up wouldn't change anything, he gave up on the idea of endlessly messing up the house, tidying it up, and then messing it up again to farm talent points.
A person who does not plan for the future will have trouble in the present. After eating and drinking his fill, Su Chen took out a small box from under the bed, carefully unlocked it, and several yellowed black and white photos and documents appeared before his eyes.
After taking out the property deed from the photo and thinking about it carefully for a long time, he finally realized that the only person who could help him was Director Wang from the neighborhood committee.
After locking the small box, Su Chen was about to stuff it under the bed when he suddenly thought of his greedy family members who had no bottom line. He paused for a moment, then put the box directly into his backpack.
After tidying up briefly, Su Chen locked the courtyard gate and walked around two streets to the neighborhood committee.
"Aunt Wang! Is Aunt Wang home?"
Su Chen pushed open the door, peeked inside, called out, and then stepped inside.
"Hey, it's Xiao Chen! Come on over here. I was just saying I'd come to your house after get off work, but you showed up first."
Director Wang and Su Chen's mother had studied together for a period of time, so after learning about Su Chen's background, he took great care of Su Chen. When he saw Su Chen walk in from outside, he immediately stood up and pulled Su Chen into his office.
"Xiao Chen, why didn't you come to me to discuss such a big matter before making the decision on your own? Do you know how hard life is in the countryside now? At least you have a food ration in the city. If you really go to the countryside, your aunt can't help you even if she wants to."
Before Su Chen could speak, Director Wang closed the office door, looking worried and reproachful, complaining that Su Chen hadn't come to discuss things with him.
What?! Going to the countryside!
Director Wang's words startled Su Chen. He didn't remember doing this. He frowned and tried to recall for a long time, but he still couldn't remember when he signed up to go to the countryside.
"I heard that your mother took you to register a few days ago, and the list was sent over by the Rural Affairs Office today, which is how I found out about it."
Seeing Su Chen lower his head and remain silent, Director Wang thought Su Chen was embarrassed. As he spoke, he took out a list from the drawer, on which Su Chen's name was clearly visible.
"I knew nothing about Aunt Wang's matter. I'm sure it was Ma Fengqin who did it. The person she was with definitely wasn't me. Actually, I came here this time because..."
Su Chen quickly figured out what had happened, explained his guesses, and recounted how Ma Fengqin and Ma Yinglong had conspired to seize his house.
"It's outrageous! How can there be such shameless people in the world? Xiao Chen, don't be afraid. Auntie will take care of this for you. As long as you hide the deed, no one can take the house away. However, Auntie can't help with the matter of going to the countryside because it has already been approved by the higher authorities."
Director Wang slammed his hand on the table, sending the teacup flying high, a testament to his anger. However, a look of helplessness appeared on his face at the end.
“Aunt Wang, I’m not afraid of hardship. I’ve made it through all these years, haven’t I? Maybe I’ll be better off without them. But I’ll need you to take good care of the house and keep an eye on it for me.”
After his anger subsided, Su Chen calmed down. There was no point in saying anything now. Director Wang was right; the approval had already been given and there was no possibility of changing it. However, it was impossible for him to leave with his tail between his legs.
"Don't worry, leave this to your aunt. I'll get you a certificate right now to prove that the house is yours. During the time you were away from the countryside, it was rented to you by the neighborhood committee. The neighborhood committee is looking for a suitable warehouse, and your two-courtyard house is just right."
Director Wang immediately brought over some stationery, and a rental contract was drafted. The neighborhood committee stamped it, and Su Chen signed his name on it.
"You must keep this contract and property deed safe. As long as you have these things, Ma Fengqin will not be able to take your house away."
After repeatedly reminding Su Chen, Director Wang handed him one of the contracts and gave him six months' rent in advance. The neighborhood committee wasn't wealthy, and the contract clearly stated that the neighborhood committee was responsible for house repairs, so it would only cost five yuan per month.
"Aunt Wang, I want to go to the countryside as soon as possible, lest something unexpected happens. Also, Aunt Wang, my sister-in-law is due to give birth in a little over a month. This is just a small token of my appreciation, please accept it."
"Xiao Chen, what are you doing? I'm helping you because you're Hui Zhen's son, not because I want your things. Take them back now."
“Aunt Wang, I didn’t mean anything by it. This brown sugar was sent to me by my husband before. I’ve been keeping it all this time. I can’t take it with me when I go to the countryside. If you don’t accept it, it means you don’t consider me family.”
"You, you child..."
Upon hearing that the package contained brown sugar, Director Wang was immediately intrigued. Her daughter-in-law was about to give birth and really needed brown sugar to replenish her blood and energy. However, both brown sugar and white sugar were scarce resources, and even as the director of the neighborhood committee, she couldn't easily obtain them.
"Come on, I'll take you to the information office to ask when the most recent batch left."
Carefully placing a large bag of brown sugar inside the table, Director Wang led Su Chen to the office of the informed party.
With Director Wang leading the way and Su Chen taking such initiative, the office staff quickly gave a reply. A group of educated youth would be departing on December 1st, which is the day after tomorrow. After inquiring with Su Chen, the office staff quickly completed the formalities and handed over a train ticket and a one-time subsidy for educated youth going to the countryside to Su Chen.
With fifty yuan and twenty jin of national grain coupons, Su Chen now had over ninety yuan and thirty jin of grain coupons.
After saying goodbye to Director Wang, Su Chen had only taken a few steps back when he heard a pleasant voice in his mind.
"Ding! Successfully changed the fact that your house was seized by someone else. Successfully triggered the change. Reward: 50 catties of rice, 50 catties of flour, 20 catties of pork, 200 yuan, and all attributes +1."
In an instant, a warm current swept through my body, and I felt as if I had been elevated, and my body felt much lighter.
I couldn't wait to open the panel.
Name: Su Chen
Talent: Alteration (F-rank 0.51%)
Skills: None
Power: 4
Intelligence: 8
Agility: 4
Constitution: 3
Spirit: 6
Luck: 1%
Backpack: 6/200
Assets: 291.03 yuan
Looking at his assets of over two hundred yuan, Su Chen could hardly believe his eyes. He had never seen so much money since he came to Beijing.
Knowing that he would be taking a bus to the countryside the day after tomorrow, Su Chen hurriedly went to the steamed bun shop on the back street.
"Sorry, without meat coupons you can only buy vegetarian buns."
Vegetarian buns cost three cents each, and meat buns cost seven cents each. Su Chen was a rich man now, so why would he eat vegetarian buns? But the bun shop's waiter had a businesslike attitude, saying he wouldn't sell to Su Chen if he didn't have a ticket, which made Su Chen feel very helpless.
Suddenly he remembered that he had 20 jin of pork in his backpack. He wondered if he could use it. With that thought, he immediately approached the waiter and whispered, "I don't have any meat coupons, but I do have a piece of pork. I wonder if I can use it instead of meat coupons."
"What did you say? There are pigs... Come over here, let's have a good talk."
