June 25, 1978, in a remote mountain village in Shangdang City, Shanxi Province.

A boy wearing a yellowed white shirt that has been washed is lying lazily on the haystack, with a piece of dogtail in his mouth. The lower body is a pair of gray trousers, and it has long been difficult to tell that it is this color.

The color is still the same after it fades after washing.

There were two huge patches on his knees, and he wore a pair of cloth shoes on his feet, but the shoes had already opened a big hole with difficulty.

Jiang Xiaobai is a 21st century undergraduate who lives in the era of the 40th anniversary of reform and opening up.

The original owner of his body was born in an ordinary worker's family in Longcheng, the capital of Shanxi Province. He has the same name as Jiang Xiaobai. He graduated from junior high school some time ago, and his second brother Jiang Zijian graduated from high school. According to the policy at this time, the family must have

A person who knows the truth goes to the mountains and countryside.

As a result, his academic performance was not good and he was fighting and causing trouble with a group of factory boys all day long, so his father sent him to the team that went to the mountains and countryside.

Then I gave myself the opportunity to come here, whether it was to revive a corpse or to travel through time.

Even sometimes, Jiang Xiaobai can't tell whether he is the Jiang Xiaobai of the 21st century or the Jiang Xiaobai of the 1970s after merging the host's memories.

Although in his previous life Jiang Xiaobai occasionally lamented that he was born at the wrong time when he drank too much, if he had been born in that golden age full of opportunities and changes, he would have been a rich generation, etc.

But he had long since fully enjoyed the fruits of reform and opening up, and never thought about returning to this era.

In the 1970s, even those born in the 1980s needed to be called uncle. Is it appropriate for you to let me travel to this era? Jiang Xiaobai looked at the sky blankly.

Parents, lovers, brothers, friends, classmates...

Suddenly disappeared without a trace, as if those experiences were like a dream. But Jiang Xiaobai would rather believe that the current experience was a dream.

I still live in the 21st century, with parents who love me, a lover I like, brothers who are inseparable, traffic coming and going, and a city flashing with colorful neon lights.

Even if I can take another breath of car exhaust!

"Gu, Gu, Gu," Jiang Xiaobai's stomach growled. It had been a full month since he came to this era.

"Brother Xiaobai, Brother Xiaobai." Hearing someone calling his name from a distance, a young man ran over.

"Why are you so anxious? How many times have I told you to calm down? Do you understand? If you don't calm down, your balls will ache."

After Jiang Xiaobai saw the person coming, he said calmly that the person who came over was called Wang Xiaojun. His parents worked in the same factory as Jiang Xiaobai's parents. He was the second eldest child in the family, and like Jiang Xiaobai, his father's job was not his turn.

He took over and was sent to the mountains and countryside.

"Brother Xiaobai, no, no, Liu Feng and the others are fighting with the villagers. Go and have a look." Wang Xiaojun said breathlessly, looking at Jiang Xiaobai with urgent eyes.

Jiang Xiaobai also got up from the haystack with a sigh of relief. Liu Feng was also an educated youth who came with Jiang Xiaobai to jump in and go to the countryside.

"Where are they? Take me there quickly." Jiang Xiaobai said, dragging Wang Xiaojun and running towards the village. As he ran, he asked: "Why did Liu Feng and the others have a conflict with the people in the village?"

In fact, Jiang Xiaobai was not surprised at all when he knowingly went to work in the countryside and jumped into the countryside to have conflicts with people in the village.

Most of the people who come to the countryside to jump in the queue are people from the city, from various classes, origins, and backgrounds. If you want to integrate them into the countryside, it cannot be solved by shouting slogans.

"I heard it was because the work points recorded for those of us who knew the situation this month were wrong, and then Liu Feng went to the village accountant Goudan to argue, and then they started to quarrel." Wang Xiaojun took the time to introduce the situation to Jiang Xiaobai.

Work points is a term used before the implementation of the "household joint production contract system".

At this time, the rural areas practiced "big pot rice." To put it simply, the land belonged to the village. When it was time to work, everyone went to work, and then the village cadres recorded work points for those who went to work.

This work point can be converted into money or food according to the output of the village. It is a unique product of this era.

While Jiang Xiaobai and Wang Xiaojun were talking, they arrived at the scene, where a dozen educated youths were fighting with the villagers.

Although there were few people who knew about it, they were all young and energetic and did not strike lightly or harshly. On the other hand, although there were many people in the village and they were strong, they all struck carefully for fear of something happening, so the two sides fought evenly.

When Jiang Xiaobai arrived, the village secretary and village chief were leading people to start a fight, but the insiders did not listen to the village secretary and village chief at all.

"Xiaobai, hurry up and persuade them to stop, otherwise something will happen if they continue to fight," village secretary Huang Zhongfu said quickly when he saw Jiang Xiaobai coming.

Among the educated youths who joined the Jianhua Brigade, the largest number were Jiang Xiaobai, the factory kids from Longcheng. Before Jiang Xiaobai traveled through time, he was the eldest brother of the factory kids in Longcheng, so among the educated youths in the Jianhua Brigade, Jiang Xiaobai's words were still somewhat useful.

"The party secretary has been beaten like this. I guess my words will have no effect." Jiang Xiaobai said with a wry smile. In fact, if Jiang Xiaobai's own thoughts were followed, it was already the end of June 1978. After this period of time, he would be able to

Now that I'm back in the city, when reform and opening up comes, that's the time I've been waiting for.

But now that Liu Feng and the others have started to make trouble, as a member of the educated youth, I must not be able to sit with my butt crooked, and I have to find a way to gain some benefits for the educated youth.

"Xiao Bai, let's discuss it if something happens. Fighting won't solve the problem. I'll criticize the accountant for a while."

The village secretary Huang Zhongfu looked at Jiang Xiaobai and said affirmatively. He used to have a good impression of this fair and clean young man. He did not cause trouble like other educated youths all day long, but now he found that this guy was not a fuel-efficient person either.

"Okay," Jiang Xiaobai responded when he saw the village secretary Huang Zhongfu relenting, turned around and snatched the white porcelain basin from an old lady who was watching the fun, and then picked up a stone from the ground.

In the aunt's astonished eyes, the white porcelain basin made a "clang-dang-dang" sound, and white paint splashed on the white porcelain basin.

"Stop fighting, stop fighting," Jiang Xiaobai shouted. The educated youths heard Jiang Xiaobai's voice and stopped. Village secretary Huang Zhongfu also quickly led people to stop the villagers.

"Brother Xiaobai, they bully people..."

"Xiao Bai, these people have gone too far. Not only did they not record work points for us, but they also cursed us..."

"Brother Xiaobai..." A group of educated youths spoke up one after another with excitement. A group of people could steal three points without any reason, let alone feel they had been wronged this time.

"Party secretary, these educated youths are so stupid..." Goudan, the village accountant, also quickly opened his mouth to complain to Huang Zhongfu, but before he could finish his words, village secretary Huang Zhongfu glared hard and shut up. Huang Zhongfu turned to Jiang Xiao

Bai Dao.

"Xiao Bai, if you have anything to do, go to the team headquarters and talk about it."

"Okay, let's go to the team headquarters." Jiang Xiaobai nodded and took the lead to walk towards the team headquarters. Behind him, Wang Xiaojun, Liu Feng and other educated youths quickly followed.

"Let's break up. Stop looking. There's nothing interesting to see. I've never seen you so active during work. Then you'll be deducting work from everyone around you."

When the village secretary saw a group of villagers watching the excitement and preparing to go to the team headquarters, he immediately cursed at the top of his lungs.

Upon hearing that work points would be deducted, the crowd of people watching the excitement dispersed immediately. Several young people who had just been fighting also wanted to sneak away in the chaos, but were caught by Huang Zhongfu.

"Are you okay? Is anyone injured?" Jiang Xiaobai asked as he walked, looking at the dozen educated youths behind him.

Even though no tools were used in the fight just now, there were still some bleeding from the noses and corners of the mouths.

"Bah," Liu Feng spat out the bloody spit from his mouth, wiped away the nosebleed and said, "Brother Bai, we're fine, it's just that Goudan is such a bully. Many of us are here this month.

I did more than 20 jobs, but this guy is the one we remember the most

There were only 13 more. When we went to see him, he actually said that if we went to work, we would not be able to contribute much, and we could only be given half a work point every day. He also said that it would be better for several of our female educated youths to not go to work.

It’s pretty good to be able to give us these jobs.”

Liu Feng said bitterly, and the faces of several female educated youths in the team were also full of dissatisfaction.

"Brother Xiaobai, if the village secretary can't make up for our work points later, we will go to the commune to cause trouble in the afternoon." Wang Xiaojun continued from the side.

"We'll see how Huang Zhongfu handles it later." Jiang Xiaobai nodded and said, although this year we will start to let the educated youth who went to the mountains and countryside return home.
Chapter completed!
