In a chaotic world of infrastructure development, a woman's path to survival after being reborn
Chapter 132 Getting Up Early to Queue
Such an opportunity was rare, but it wouldn't warrant General Liu Quan personally coming to ask for it, so Su Li asked curiously, "Can you tell me why?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Quan paused for a moment, then revealed the real reason. After speaking, he stared intently at Su Li, wanting to know her plans.
After learning the reason, Su Li was momentarily stunned, then looked at Liu Quan and said, "I understand. Everyone has this opportunity. As long as you are capable of being selected, I will not interfere with anything else."
After understanding Su Li's meaning, Liu Quan immediately nodded his thanks and then happily took his leave.
Knowing that Liu Quan was in a hurry to go home, Su Li did not stop him. Instead, she hesitated and said, "Did I misjudge everyone's expectations for Tudou? The day of registration will probably be very lively."
Mo Bei listened to this from the side, unsure how to respond. Of course, Su Li didn't need anyone to answer; she would find out on that day.
……
When the registration day arrived, Su Li set off for the outskirts of the city early in the morning. She thought she had arrived very early, but she didn't expect that there were many people who had arrived earlier than her.
Because of the people's enthusiasm, the roads leading out of the city were somewhat crowded. Sitting in the carriage, Su Li glanced outside and saw many people wrapped in coats walking out.
Somewhat surprised, Su Li quickly asked Mo Bei to inquire about the situation, only to find out that many people had left the city to queue up before dawn.
“Madam, those people said they were afraid they would miss their train if they arrived late, so they set off in the middle of the night and have been waiting for quite a while now,” Mo Bei explained.
Hearing this, Su Li was somewhat shocked, but putting herself in the shoes of these people, she felt it was normal and expressed her understanding. She then instructed Mo Bei to speed up the carriage.
These days, especially at this time, very few people can ride in a horse-drawn carriage, so many people consciously give way and move aside when they see one.
Thanks to the people making way, the carriage quickly reached its destination. Seeing the scene, which was twice as lively as the road, Su Li felt she had already gotten used to it.
With Mo Bei's help, Su Li got off the carriage and ran into Aunt Wang and her group.
"Madam, you've arrived," Aunt Wang greeted first.
Hearing this, Su Li looked up and saw the weariness on Aunt Wang's and the others' faces. She asked with some surprise, "When did you arrive, aunties?"
Upon hearing Su Li's question, Aunt Wang and the others quickly replied, "We arrived two hours ago."
Upon hearing this, Su Li reached out and touched the clothes of the group, saying, "Why so early? It wasn't even dawn then. Your clothes are all wet from the snow. Don't catch a cold."
Hearing Su Li's concern, Aunt Wang quickly smiled and waved her hand, saying, "It's alright, my outer clothes are just a little wet, but it's still warm inside."
"There are a lot of people. We haven't stopped working since we arrived. It's incredibly busy and hot, and we haven't felt any coolness at all," Aunt Liu explained with a smile.
Although none of them thought there was a problem, Su Li couldn't ignore it. She said to the soldiers behind her, "I had someone bring some ginger on the carriage. I'll boil a pot of ginger water later and let everyone have a bowl. Don't catch a cold. There might not be enough medicine for colds in the city for so many people."
The soldier obeyed and immediately turned around to tell people to bring out a pot to boil water.
After instructing the soldiers, Su Li then told Aunt Wang and the others, "Aunties, remember to drink a bowl of ginger soup later to ward off the cold."
Aunt Wang and the others naturally appreciated Su Li's kindness and were deeply moved, thanking her repeatedly.
Hearing Aunt Wang and the others express their gratitude, Su Li jokingly said, "The aunties have all done things for me and helped me with chores, so I should be the one thanking them."
Aunt Wang and the others said, "This is our duty..."
On a snowy day, one cannot stay outside for long. Seeing the people shivering in the cold while queuing outside, Su Li felt that she had to finish the task quickly.
Surrounded by Aunt Wang and the others, Su Li entered the earthen house that had been temporarily set up as a resting place. The earthen house had a heated kang (a traditional heated brick bed) inside, which was very warm and chased away some of the chill.
Once she felt warm, Su Li asked about the main purpose of the trip. She asked, "Are you ready? How many registration points are there?"
Upon hearing Su Li's question, Aunt Wang and the others quickly explained, "There were two, but because there were too many people signing up, we added one more at the last minute."
Upon hearing this, Su Li pondered for a moment before turning to Mo Bei and saying, "Find ten more literate soldiers to help with the registration. Try to be as quick as possible. So many people are waiting outside; we can't let them wait too long, or a large number of them might catch a cold tomorrow."
Upon hearing this, Mo Bei immediately nodded and turned to give instructions to the soldiers.
Although it was bustling outside, it was orderly. This was the main camp where the soldiers were stationed, and soldiers patrolled everywhere. No one dared to make any rash moves.
The scene outside was still lively, but the matter was urgent and needed to be ended as soon as possible. So Su Li quickly explained the selection criteria and then asked Aunt Wang and the others to decide based on the situation.
Su Li's list of standards left Aunt Wang and the others bewildered, but they finally understood. They calmly nodded and said, "Okay, we understand, and we will definitely uphold a fair and just attitude."
Su Li knew Wang's character well, so she nodded firmly and said, "I trust you all. Let's get ready and begin. Everyone, speed things up and try to get this done today."
Upon hearing this, Aunt Wang and the others nodded in agreement and quickly began packing their things.
With the addition of ten registration points, the overall process has become much faster, and naturally, the selection process has also been accelerated.
This time, several rooms were specially set aside for selecting candidates, so the process was quite fast.
Time was tight, so the selection process was quite fast. Only by going through layer after layer of selection could one make it onto the final list and meet the actual examiners.
Some people pass the levels smoothly, while others are eliminated before even passing the first level.
She had just extended her hand and hadn't even had a chance to speak when she was told to go home. The woman stared wide-eyed in disbelief and asked, "Did you even look carefully? I just extended my hand and you said I didn't meet the requirements and told me to go home. Are you sure you didn't make a mistake?"
Upon hearing this, the soldier in charge of the selection looked at the woman seriously and said confidently, "You do not meet the requirements. We don't need to say more; you should know that in your heart."
Hearing this, the woman felt guilty, but she also felt that the soldier was making things difficult for her, so she said unwillingly, "You are making things difficult for me. Why are you letting me go back so soon?"
The woman wanted to make a big scene, so she spoke louder and louder, attracting the attention of everyone around her. Everyone wanted to know what had happened.
