Chapter 16.05 (Part 1) Wei Keng’s entry into the city
A month later, the examination for senior technicians ended. When Wei Keng returned to the village, he received a warm welcome.
When others went to study in the town, they could only learn to read and do arithmetic initially, and then they were taught how to behave with sticks.
Most people were rushed into the conscription ranks because their grades were not good enough and they had not learned solid geometry or linear algebra. At present, the cannon fodder on the battlefield only needs an elementary school education.
Wei Keng not only achieved the best grades and was allowed to enter the big city for further study, he also brought new gadgets from the town. After Wei Keng gave the broadcaster to the Bao Zhang, the Bao Zhang immediately installed it in the village hall.
Up.
In this small village, such large items are for public use. Even the only generator does not only supply his family's lights.
At this time, Baochang still maintained his "high moral character and high respect" and acted impartially towards all things.
Wei Keng later learned that he was the only one who kept the key to the village hall and how long he could stay at night. Wei Keng complained: "It's like the leader of a square dance."
The simplicity of the countryside described by literati and poets lies in the fact that there are not many big interests to compete for. Therefore, wealthy city dwellers find that they can adjust conflicts at will and feel that the countryside is simple. However, when these literati and poets are as poor as in the countryside, they are in a difficult situation.
When the waves of conflict hit you, you may not be able to settle down.
...The cause and effect in the countryside cannot be cut off. Wei Keng looked at the big tree he climbed at the entrance of the village and whispered: "I will be back."...
During the few years when Enma was in school, there were two more little boys and a little girl in the family. These were the children of the elder brother who returned to the village and had a relationship with Guliang in the village.
Speaking of this, Enma's brother, who is twenty-three years old, married a wife in the town, and is lonely in the village. However, in this era, we cannot say that he is a scumbag!

All the young and middle-aged men in the countryside have been taken away by the battlefield. This is the case for the lonely people in the village.
The eight gold coins that Wei Keng quietly brought surprised his honest tinker father and his aunts. With this money, the family could finally live a comfortable life for a while. Wei Keng almost took it out and distributed it within a few hours.
The money will be used to pay off debts, buy fertilizer, buy some clothes, and in a few years, the grandson (Wei Keng's nephew) will go to school and raise a child bride. He will be able to have children before the conscripts leave.
As for Enma himself, he was going to the city to make money. Wei Keng’s travel expenses totaled five silver dollars. He stupidly took over the clothes his mother had mended for the trip, as well as a utility knife and an iron box made by his father out of scraps.
The same pistol.
This pistol is not a shiny aristocratic product, but a local pistol similar to the Dongfang Tubal Road in World War II, and its name is "The Only Pout". This thing even made the Japanese soldiers see the separated barrels when they were attacked and searched.
He mistakenly thought it was a locksmith's tool and let it go.
The potholes are made of pig iron. Compared with the revolvers in Western movies, the difference in appearance is like the difference between the red cannon with trachoma in the Xianfeng period of the Qing Dynasty and the Western Krupp steel cannon. There are only ten parts in the whole gun, which is like a lock.
, there is a pig iron pipe on top, and there is a ring trigger underneath, which can only fire one bullet. It also uses black powder reloading.
Wei Keng could feel the love of this old farmer father, but, as a country view, it was too simple.
In order to help Enma find a way to make a living in the city, the old father contacted people he thought were reliable in the city.
But this man is actually a "broker" in the city. He is not much different from a human trafficker. Because children of Wei Keng's age who are sent to the city by them are nothing more than "child labor". Therefore, Wei Keng was
Keng decisively refused.
In the junior high school textbook, the Russian writer Chekhov created "Fanka", which was very suitable for the situation in Wei Keng's plane at this time.
Xiao Fanka suffered humiliation under the oppression of the shoemaker in the city. When the clerk and the boss were out, he wrote a letter, begging his grandfather to come back. But in the end, his letter did not have a stamp, and the letter he posted was just a beautiful dream.
And even if it is posted, it is still a dream.
In the last life, when Wei Keng was a boy, he was constantly failing in Chinese. He could only copy the answers from the reference book and failed to understand the background of this article.
I could only write in the answer box: 'The people at the bottom are poor but pursue a happy and beautiful life attitude, but the cruelty and tyranny of the exploiting class do not allow it."
At that time, as a primary school student, I had no way of knowing what it was like to live a humiliating life as an apprentice craftsman.
Oh, then I saw the development of the times, the Internet age, various "takeaway platforms", "online ride-hailing platforms" and the "excellent" corporate style of cities that allow code farmers to "graduate" into society. I immediately understood the meaning of "everyday life"
This article is not only "not outdated", it is simply an "advanced education" for that generation of people to go to big cities and big companies to find opportunities.
Fortunately, this old father left himself the final bottom line, which is to show this gun, which does not look like a gun, when necessary, and you will not be bullied outside. If you encounter someone who really wants to
People who bully themselves to death can be a deterrent.
Of course, the father didn't know that Enma was no ordinary boy.
six days later
After returning to the town and boarding the train, Enma mingled with ordinary people. He felt that there were thieves in this large crowd, so he couldn't help but touch the things in his backpack. However, when he came into contact with the pig iron pistol.
The system prompts: "Father's love is like a mountain, attribute is Yang, D level. When you encounter unfairness, this weapon will give you courage."
Wei Keng was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile: "Did you start working so soon?"
Yan Beixiang, the team leader of the Bailinglu team who stayed in this dimension: "Yes, under normal circumstances, the "system" is awakened at this time." (This is when you are twelve or thirteen years old, Mo Qi
When a young man is poor, all kinds of thoughts are at their strongest)
Wei Keng said half-jokingly: "Well, there is no need to prompt me with item information. Every time I see the information bar, I always feel like there is some task."
Yan Beixiang was silent for a while and asked weakly: "Then how can I help?"
A super traveler like Wei Keng has begun to focus and be patient after a little inspiration was born in the multidimensional plane. And the observation and safe deployment of the entire plane are better than the supervisors.
Now the supervisors and Wei Keng are also Alexander. There is a sense of urgency of being "laid off and unemployed".
Wei Keng looked at the vegetation outside the window and said leisurely: "We are all old collaborators, so there is no need to be nervous."
…The train chugs on the road…
Wei Keng rarely started to comfort people, his eyes stared at the city in the distance. The perspective was a bit desolate.
That big city with flashing lights was full of information fields where industrial forces collided, but there were also some flashes of "conflict" and "chaotic information." Wei Keng read that every gear might be stained with blood, but these
The "blood-stained" information was continuously excreted along the lines in the city, silently.
Seeing the city like this, Enma looked a little numb. It was completely different from the cheerful look of the young man who came with him.
Wei Keng leisurely asked the system: The direction you have been working hard for has finally been regarded as a "available" motivation. Can you still maintain your passion?
Yan Beixiang read the information on industrial development here and became solemn: "If you trample on your passion, you should trample on them."
Wei Keng laughed when he heard this and said to the silly girl, "But, I don't want to trample on anyone."
A few minutes later, Enma was pushed by the military police maintaining order in the train. Wei Keng immediately added: "But others trample on me first. I will retaliate."
On the supervisor's platform, the new follower Hongzhen beside Yan Beixiang couldn't help but said: "Huh, ha."
