When we got back, we were almost at the entrance of the village before I put some things in the backpack.I have started to pack things at home. I have put away all the clothes that are too thick. Now I am wearing cotton-padded clothes. It will be dark after I finish packing them all.

At the beginning of school, Xie Yun was assigned some planting work during the spring plowing. This work was not tiring. Two people worked in teams. She only had to throw the seeds into the pit and cover them with some soil with her feet to step on them.

The person in her group was Wang Lei, a male educated youth who came with her. When the team leader assigned work, almost everyone in the Educated Youth Institute was together. The piece of land next to her was Wang Qing. Although she was pouting, she was still very serious about her work. Generally, men dig holes in the front and women plant seeds in the back.

The men in the village are all plowing the fields. The work is too tiring for the high score. There are no male educated youths who can do it. Maybe there are male educated youths from other places who can do it, but they still count as male educated youths here. Come on.

After a few days of planting seeds and planting sweet potatoes, the next task was to open up wasteland. During the assignment, the captain looked at Xie Yun's little arms and legs and said, "Xie Zhiqing should go beat the pigs."

The brigade leader looked at Wang Qing and said, "Okay, you can shoot hogweed three times a day for 2 cents. If there are not enough cents during grain distribution, the brigade will not lend you the grain." In their brigade. Only those families who are really in difficulty can hire a production team. Otherwise, they will starve to death without lending you food.

Who gives you the hands and feet to still not work? On this point, the leadership of the production team is particularly unified. Their production team allocates work hours according to work. How many points are there for a piece of land? After you finish the work, you can ask for more work, so that you will get more points. . If you are lazy, then your piece of land is worth 10 points. If you finish it in three days, you will earn these 10 points in these three days, so you won't be wasted.

Wang Qing's family gave her money and tickets and mailed things to her, so she didn't lack anything. Seeing that [Xie Yun was so comfortable shooting pigweed every day, she wanted to do it too. Others can't do it, and they can only envy them.

After the work was divided, everyone got their tools and went to work. Xie Yun still carried her basket on her back and went up the mountain. I started cutting pigweed as soon as I got to the mountain.

I thought I could finish cutting it quickly and go up the mountain to have a look. While she was cutting pigweed, she saw Wang Qing coming towards her with a basket and sickle. He stood beside her and said to her: "Xie Zhiqing, can you teach me what kind of pigweed is?" ?"

Xie Yun looked at her and said: "Okay, look at it, this and this are all pig grass. Just hold these and cut them. When the basket is full, you can send it to the pig pen. Aunt Yang is there. Let's count." After saying that, he lowered his head to mow the grass again.

Wang Qing also took some types of grass given by Xie Yun and cut them on the edge. Xie Yun finished cutting a basket and then carried it to the pig pen. When she got there, she asked Aunt Yang to put it away and remember the , and then went up the mountain again. This time she did not go to the original place, but went to the other side and finished cutting 3 baskets.

After the pig grass, we went up the mountain. She didn't have any purpose today. She just dug whatever she saw. After walking for a while and looking at the few wild vegetables in the box, she might as well walk further in. If there was danger, she would run. If not, she would hide in the space.

Thinking about it, Xie Yun walked further and further in. After walking for more than half an hour, Xie Yun saw a ravine, which had been washed away by rain all year round and was almost 2 meters deep. There were some wild vegetables growing well on the edge of the ditch. Xie Yun thought about it and went to pick them. After all, I felt a pity when I saw that I didn't come back from harvesting. When I was halfway through harvesting, a mouse suddenly jumped out from the side. She was so scared that Xie Yun ran to the side. She forgot that there was a ditch next to it, and fell down immediately. .

Xie Yun, who fell down, was still thinking that it was over this time, but it was not over yet. When she fell, she fell at an angle, and then a hole was made in the wall of the ditch, and people fell into it.

Xie Yunjue rolled a few times on a pile of things. After she stopped moving and calmed down for a while, she opened her eyes and looked around. She felt that her whole body was not feeling well. She found herself lying on a pile of bags. The contents of the bags were still a little soft. Through the light coming from the hole she made, she saw some sacks on one side and many large wooden boxes neatly placed on the other side. .

Xie Yun stood up and moved her hands and feet. Fortunately, her arms and legs were not broken, but her body still hurt. I took out the flashlight from the space and turned it on. I started to look here. First I looked at the sack under me. I saw it said on it. There were many bags piled up here. I looked at the other bags again and they all had "日㫧" written on them. Japan. Looking at these Japanese people, Xie Yun didn't know what they were pretending to be. She didn't recognize any of them.

It seems that I can only go back and study it slowly by myself, so let's pretend it first. Thinking about it, she put all the things here into the space. After collecting them all, Xie Yun looked at such a big cave and couldn't leave it empty. Now she has smashed a hole in the side. If it rains, there will be After a collapse, Xie Yun thought for a while and went out to the side of the mountain to collect a lot of stones into the space. When she came back, she put them into the cave. After filling the cave, she went home.

After arriving home, I immediately entered the space, took a shower and changed clothes, and then started to open the blind box after eating. After opening the first box, there was a box of porcelain, the second box was jade, the third box was still porcelain, and the fourth box was gold bars... Xie Yun was already numb by the end. She counted a total of twenty boxes of porcelain, thirty-one boxes of jade, thirty boxes of gold and silver jewelry, forty boxes of gold bars, ten boxes of silver ingots, and ten boxes of gold bricks. . In the pile of sacks, there were ten sacks of rice and ten sacks of ready-made bedding.

After Xie Yun finished counting, she sat there in a daze. The child was frightened. In her previous life, she had only seen these things on TV or in movies, and they were all fake, but now they suddenly became real to her.

These weapons were obviously left behind by the Japanese. They may have wanted to transport them away but were unable to do so in time. They are now useless. No, they are hers now.

You have to celebrate this windfall, so let's have a seafood feast. He took out some scallops, hairy crabs, lobsters, octopus, abalone, oysters, shrimps, and conches to open, and after Xie Yun finished cooking, he started to eat them beautifully. Although it took almost two hours of work, it was so delicious.

After soaking in the hot springs, I slept until dawn, and the alarm clock woke me up the next day. After washing and having breakfast, I went to cut pig grass again. The next day, I saw Wang Qing coming to cut pigweed. They greeted each other and went about their own business.

Xie Yun went to dig wild vegetables after cutting pigweed every day. She made a lot of pickled vegetables such as shepherd's purse, willow sprouts, mother-in-law, and small root garlic and put them in the space for you to eat slowly.
