Traveling between the 70s and the modern world

Chapter 356 Are they all college students?

Lin Qingyan sat on Gu Yizhou's bicycle, looking at the place that was getting farther and farther away from the city and more and more remote, and she was lost in thought.

"Brother Yizhou, where is the field you mentioned? How long will it take to get there?"

Lin Qingxuan, who was riding a bicycle with Liu Huizhen, couldn't help but raise his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead.

"Almost there! It's just past the front."

Gu Yizhou thought about the address his grandfather wrote to him and estimated that it should be right in front.

They had been riding for 30-40 minutes. This place was quite far from where they lived.

Lin Qingyan silently calculated in her heart the approximate location of this very remote place in 79 in the future.

What is certain is that it should be within the Third Ring Road of later generations. She has no idea what famous buildings are around it, but she can go to the modern era when there is no one around and find out the exact location.

Lin Qingyan doesn't care about the specific location of the land now. She just wants to find an opportunity to buy the land and put it in her own name.

From then on, whether she built a house herself or sold the land directly, she could make a lot of money, and no one would complain about having too much money. The more Lin Qingyan thought about it, the happier she became, as if she saw a lot of money waving at her.

After riding for a few minutes, they arrived at a village. There was a stream in front of the village and a hill behind it.

Gu Yizhou stopped and said to Liu Huizhen:

"Aunt, please wait here for a while. I will go to the village chief and ask him which piece of land it is."

The land that Grandpa Gu wanted was allocated to him directly from above, but since the land is in this village, the village chief must know where it is, so it would be a good idea to go directly to the village chief.

"I will go with you."

Lin Qingyan did not wait for Liu Huizhen to reply, and walked towards the village with Gu Yizhou. Their arrival was seen by the villagers outside the village. The villagers thought they were unfamiliar, so they asked someone to notify the village chief.

When Gu Yizhou and his companions met a villager who was walking towards the village with a hoe, they walked up to him and asked:

"Comrade, may I ask who is your village chief?"

The villagers looked at them with a strange look in their eyes and pointed behind them.

"The village chief is there!"

Lin Qingyan and Gu Yizhou turned around and saw an elderly man in his fifties or sixties walking quickly towards them.

"Hello, comrade, are you the village chief of Zhaojia Village?" Gu Yizhou asked with a smile.

"Yes, I am the head of Zhaojia Village. What can I do for you?"

Village Chief Zhao looked at the two people in front of him. They were obviously from the city. What were they doing in their village? Thinking of the rumors he had heard recently, he felt a little uneasy and a little uneasy.

"Hello, Village Chief Zhao, it's like this, my elders have a field here, but we have never been here and don't know the exact location of the field. Could you please take us to find that field?"

As Gu Yizhou spoke, he took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to the village chief.

The village chief took the paper and knew it at a glance. It was someone who came yesterday to inform him that a piece of land in their village would be allocated for experiments.

"Are you talking about the experimental field?" The village chief asked Gu Yizhou with a smile after reading the words on the paper.

"Experimental field? Is there something wrong?" Lin Qingyan was a little surprised.

"Are you Comrade Lin Qingyan?"

The village chief directly asked for Lin Qingyan's name. Not only Lin Qingyan but also Gu Yizhou was surprised. What did his grandfather say? How come even the village chief knew Qingyan?

"Hello, Village Chief Zhao, I'm Lin Qingyan."

"That's right. Someone came yesterday and told me that Comrade Lin Qingyan will plant that field in the future and do some experiments. They also asked us in the village to cooperate as much as possible."

The village chief was also very interested in what kind of experiment was going to be done on this field. In his impression, anyone who could be called an experimenter or do an experiment should be a capable person.

Lin Qingyan glanced at Gu Yizhou and decided to ask some questions after returning home.

"Come on, I'll take you to see the fields."

The village chief turned around and led them out of the village, introducing things to them as they walked.

"Although that field is at the outermost edge of our village, it is a good field. Last year we organized people to fertilize the field.

We didn’t plant anything in the first half of this year, so we left the land there to grow some crops. We were originally planning to plant winter wheat in the fall.”

As he spoke, he came to where Liu Huizhen and others were waiting. The village chief looked at them, then at Lin Qingyan and asked:

"Are these people with you?"

"Yes, this is my mother, my brother, and my two friends. We may be the ones to plant crops here in the future."

"You city people really don't mind the hard work. You even want to come to the countryside to farm. Now it's not like the famine in the past few years. If you have a field, you can at least have something to eat. Now you can buy food from the supply and marketing cooperatives."

The village chief had a slightly dissatisfied look on his face, but he didn't say anything harsh. He was secretly wondering what the higher-ups were thinking.

A piece of land that was well-tended in their village was marked out, which would have been fine, but the key point is that it was given to a group of people who don't look like they do any work. Isn't this a waste of land?

Liu Huizhen stepped forward and said to him with a smile:

"Brother, we are not city people. We have all farmed before. Especially the children. Before we were admitted to university, we farmed in the countryside for several years. We are all good at farming."

Liu Huizhen pointed at Wang Lanlan and said, "This girl grew up doing farm work."

"Yes, I have been farming every year since I was able to work."

Village Chief Zhao was surprised by Liu Huizhen's words and said in disbelief:

"Is one of these kids a college student?"

When Liu Huizhen heard Village Chief Zhao's question, she said proudly:

"Brother, it's not a college student, it's that except for me, they are all college students."

As for Gu Yizhou's plan to go to school, Lin Qingyan briefly told her about it. In her eyes, going to school, no matter what school it was, must be a university.

Village Chief Zhao looked at Liu Huizhen in disbelief, then looked at Gu Yizhou and Lin Qingyan who had just come to see him, and confirmed:

"Are you really all college students?"

“Yes, we are all college students.”

"Which university?" Village Chief Zhao thought to himself. After the college entrance examination was resumed last year, some boys in their village also took the college entrance examination, but only one of them was admitted to a junior college.

The others didn't pass the exam, but the young people in front of him actually told him that they were all college students. This made him wonder if there was something wrong with his cognition, or if college students were not valuable now? How did he catch 5 of them at random?

"Brother, they are all from Beijing University. My daughter and son are both from Beijing University."

Liu Huizhen seized every opportunity to show off her children and introduced them to Village Chief Zhao with a smile.
