Reborn in 1977, starting with severing ties with family.

Jiang Sen didn't mention that he had already bought several kilograms of liquor, nor did he say that he would go and buy more to try.

Isn't this a slap in the face?

He wouldn't do that.

He never went to university, but he was in prison; prison is the best university.

He learned a lot from it, including the importance of being low-key.

What's really bothering him now is that many things have gone beyond what he was used to.

Including not having had the chance to find that woman yet.

That woman, who lives like the wind, lives deep in the mountains. To meet her, you either have to go to her or, like in your past life, go to that place.

The four of them fiddled around in the room for a long time, even making a ventilation hole to prevent the little wild boar from suffocating.

Then he went out for a stroll as if nothing had happened.

As Jiang Sen walked ahead, he suddenly had a whim and went to the communications room to send a letter to the livestock farm.

It was sent to Wang Jianguo.

He had forgotten about it at the time, but since he had the opportunity, he went to the supply and marketing cooperative to inquire about the situation there.

The livestock farm is far from the reach of the central government; I wonder how it's doing.

Sister Ma rolled her eyes and said, "Oh dear, that's a long story! It's good in a way, no one cares about you, but it's also bad in a way, you live like an ox, and you lack clothes and food. Why are you asking about this?"

“One of the educated youths who came with us, we were quite close, and he was assigned over there!” Jiang Sen said, already taking out his money. “Sister-in-law Ma, you’re a kind-hearted person. See what they need most over there, I’ll buy some and send it to him.”

Sister-in-law Ma laughed, "You child, you have such a kind heart. I'll help you this time, no problem. But you have to be careful. Bad people don't have their names written on their faces."

Jiang Sen gave her thirty dollars.

Sister-in-law Ma gave us a burlap sack containing an army overcoat, cotton shoes and socks, sugar, biscuits, and surprisingly, she pulled out two sheets of noodles from somewhere.

Jiang Sen was extremely envious.

Noodles are something that only the military supplies internally; supply and marketing cooperatives don't have them at all.

"This was given to me by Director Li from the farm headquarters. He doesn't like it himself, so he gave it to my husband. We don't like it either; handmade noodles are the best. If you like it, keep it for yourself and don't send it over. There are only these two pieces of paper."

Jiang Sen just smiled and shook his head, his eyes glued to the noodles.

Sister Ma stuffed another jar of soybean paste into the sack, then turned to Jiang Sen and asked, "Does your friend drink?"

Jiang Sen hesitated for only a moment before nodding and saying, "I can drink a little."

"Alright! Also, bring him a bottle of strong liquor. You can pay for the bottle yourself, it'll be two cents."

With thirty yuan, Sister Ma stuffed the sack full, leaving only one empty space, where she then crammed in a large cabbage.

Jiang Sen and she worked together to tighten the opening of the sack with the hemp rope.

"Alright!" Sister Ma straightened up and let out a breath.

Then, the two stared at the sack without saying a word. After a long while, Sister Ma finally burst out laughing, "It's too heavy, can you carry it over?"

Jiang Sen scratched his head, not expecting to buy so many things.

The sack was meant to hold 100 kilograms of rice, but now it's stuffed full and can't be lifted by hand.

Looking at it just now, it didn't seem like there was much stuff.

"Wait a minute!" Sister Ma walked out of the supply and marketing cooperative and called out to the people resting on the cart not far away, "Hey! Black Donkey! Drive the cart over here and help me deliver some things to the front."

"coming!"

The sacks sent to Wang Jianguo were first taken by horse-drawn carriage to the communications room in front, and a short while later, they were taken away by tractor along with the letters and packages sent to the livestock farm.

By the time I finished, it was almost dark.

Jiang Sen watched the departing carriage and asked, "Leaving now? It's getting dark."

Sister Ma patted the dust off her clothes with her arm sleeves and said, "The tractor is fast, it will arrive around 10 p.m.

"Jiang Sen!" Luo Yong called out to him from the other end.

"Sister Ma, thank you for your hard work today. The captain is calling me, so I'm off!"

"Alright, go ahead!" Sister Ma stood at the door, smiling as she watched Jiang Sen run off into the distance. "It's good to be young!"

The young man ran up to Luo Yongcai, "Vice Captain!"

"Let's go! Let's go eat!"

For dinner, we had stewed potatoes and cabbage, flatbread, and pickled vegetables.

Because new educated youth were arriving in the evening, the canteen didn't prepare any extra meat dishes; there wasn't much!

After the meal, Jiang Sen followed Luo Yongcai to the outside of the farm headquarters, where several brigades were waiting.

Li Chaoyang also arrived. After greeting everyone with a smile, he walked up to Luo Yongcai and said, "You hunted so many good things, but you only left us a pheasant?"

Luo Yongcai complained, "I wanted to keep one more, but ask them, a bunch of bandits, they all took it!"

For these comrades, money is nothing compared to this extra gain; only those with a good relationship would take it from you.

If you're not on good terms with someone, but you're lucky enough to get lucky, you won't shamelessly try to steal it from them; you'll offer them money or tickets in exchange.

The forest farm is naturally blessed with good conditions, allowing for frequent hunting!

Li Chaoyang was not angry at all. Instead, he pointed at the captains and laughed and cursed, "You bunch of bandits, if you try to rob me again next time, I'll send you on a training exercise!"

These kinds of remarks are mostly jokes, and nobody takes them seriously.

Being scolded is a common occurrence.

In the distance, car headlights appeared, and someone said, "They're here!"

Jiang Sen also looked in that direction; it seemed there were only two cars.

Two cars, but not many people!

When the two trucks stopped and the educated youth got out, Jiang Sen felt they were still just children.

They all looked bewildered, confused, and nervous, standing there with their luggage.

"Come and assemble!" the person whom Officer Ma went to fetch shouted back, "Hurry up!"

The large number of people welcoming them made it seem like a grand affair, which made the newly arrived educated youth flustered and scramble to get there.

Li Chaoyang muttered under his breath, "Each batch is worse than the last!"

Jiang Sen heard this and simply assumed he was one of the better ones.

"Everyone, stand at attention!" Officer Ma said, seeing them lined up. "Wait a minute, come with me to the canteen for lunch, then I'll assign you your places! The people who came to pick you up have arrived, and we'll let you get to know them after lunch! Okay, let's go!"

After finishing speaking, Officer Ma turned around and smiled, taking out a bunch of letters of introduction from his pocket and handing them to Li Chaoyang. "I'll take them to eat first."

"Okay!" Li Chaoyang responded, looking at the letter of introduction by the light from the doorway.

Jiang Sen was standing right next to him; he could see the words on it just by craning his neck.

This batch is still from Kyoto.

In his past life, Jiang Sen must have come with this group of people, but now things have changed, and the number of people has changed as well.

He had just looked closely at the group of about ten people, and none of them were people he recognized.

Everyone is waiting here.

After looking at them, Li Chaoyang said, "There are only about ten, two for each brigade. You can see for yourselves!"

He handed out the letter of introduction, which was quickly circulated and then distributed to others, who then studied and exchanged it among themselves.

After everyone had been assigned their tasks, the group of educated youth finished their meal and used the toilet, and then all returned and stood in front of everyone.

"Listen up! Hongqi Farm welcomes educated youth from Kyoto to support the Great Northern Wilderness and receive rural re-education. Enough with the nonsense, let's begin. Those whose names are called, step forward!"

Each team leader stepped forward, introduced themselves, called out two people, greeted Li Chaoyang, and then left with their men.

In the end, only two people remained, both of whom were from the forest farm.

One of these two men is named Wang Haiyang. He is very tall and has a good physique. He stands very straight and looks like a soldier when he wears a military uniform.

Luo Yong almost got into a fight with the captain of the Third Brigade just now in an attempt to take him away.
