As the announcement came on, the carriage gradually became noisy.

The educated youth, gathered in small groups, were discussing amongst themselves, their various slogans mingling together.

Not long after,

The train conductor also came over and shouted, "We are almost at the final stop, Harbin. Please pack your luggage and line up to get off the train."

The educated youth became excited and began packing their simple belongings.

"It's been more than two days, we've finally arrived."

Jiang Mengmeng said happily,

Xia An smiled, got up, took down her bedding and luggage, and placed them on her seat.

He then pulled out a net bag from under his seat, which contained an enamel basin and other items.

Seeing his actions, Jiang Mengmeng and the other two quickly packed their luggage.

Soon,

The train slowly came to a stop, the doors opened, and a breath of fresh air rushed in.

Passengers in the carriage got off one after another, making it a bit crowded for a moment.

Fortunately, Xia An and his three companions were very close to the car door, which reduced the crowding considerably.

After exiting the station,

Xia An looked at the many Jiefang trucks parked outside the station, and the banners on them.

"Those vehicles must be carrying educated youth. Let's get on and choose a good seat."

The three nodded quickly and followed.

Just as the four approached the Liberation trucks heading to Songyuan County, people holding loudspeakers began to shout from beside the trucks.

"All educated youth heading to Taoyu County, please assemble here. If the bus is full, you'll have to wait for the next one!"

"Please proceed to Songyuan County..."

"..."

Upon hearing these calls, the educated youth who had gotten off the bus swarmed over.

Seeing this, Xia An's expression hardened slightly, and she quickly threw her luggage into the carriage.

He then used his hands to push himself up and flipped himself into the carriage.

"Give me your luggage, and I'll pull you up."

He quickly turned around and reached out his hand to Jiang Mengmeng and the others.

The three of them didn't delay and handed over their luggage, which Xia An quickly took and put away.

Immediately, he reached out again, "Step firmly, be careful."

"Thank you, Xia, the educated youth."

Jiang Mengmeng smiled slightly, quickly took his hand, and used it to get into the car.

At the same time, the system's ethereal voice rang in Xia An's mind:

"Congratulations, host, on your first successful skin check-in! You have received 10 Great Unity cards, 10 Rejuvenation Pills, a pistol, and 100 bullets."

"The item reward has been placed in your Spirit Spring Space. Please check it."

Xia An's face lit up with joy. Without looking any further, she pulled Shen Nianchu and her sister up as well.

I checked in twice more.

Just as he was about to turn around, he heard a clear female voice coming from under the car.

"Comrade, please lend a hand."

Xia An turned her head to look. The girl had delicate features, a dark complexion, and some freckles on her cheeks.

She wore a white floral top and army green trousers.

What puzzled Xia An was that the golden flower between the other person's brows gradually dimmed, which seemed to be saying...

She is absolutely stunning!

However, her appearance cannot be described as stunning; she is far less beautiful than Jiang Mengmeng and others.

Xia An didn't think much of it and quickly took her luggage and pulled her up.

Seeing that the other educated youths had already rushed over, he quickly put his luggage close to the front panel and sat down on it.

Seeing this, Jiang Mengmeng and the others' eyes lit up, and they quickly followed suit.

The five people sat in a row, taking up the space in front of the trunk.

The woman sat to Xia An's left, leaning against the left side of the carriage.

To Xia An's right are the sisters Jiang Mengmeng and Shen Nianchu.

At this moment, the woman extended her hand and smiled.

"Thank you for your help earlier, comrade. My name is Ye Qingxuan, and I'm from Jiangsu and Zhejiang. I'm going to Songlin Commune in Songyuan County to work in the countryside. May I ask where you're going?"

Xia An gently grasped that soft little hand, then quickly let go, and smiled.

"Hello, Ye Zhiqing. My name is Xia An. I'm from Beijing and I'm also going to Songlin Commune. We're quite destined to meet."

"Really?" Ye Qingxuan was slightly taken aback, then smiled and said, "That's wonderful! If we happen to be in the same production team, Xia Zhiqing, we must look after each other."

As she spoke, she glanced at Jiang Mengmeng and the other two, a strange light flashing in her eyes.

"We are all comrades who responded to the call of the country to build a new countryside, temper our hearts and carry out the revolution. We should take care of each other to the best of our ability."

Xia An smiled, but didn't finish her sentence.

After all, while people in this era are generally honest and simple, there are bound to be some with malicious intentions.

If someone tries to take advantage of him later and uses his words to morally blackmail him, that won't do.

That makes sense!

Ye Qingxuan smiled and agreed, her two dimples appearing faintly on her cheeks.

At this moment, the other educated youth also boarded the bus, their luggage piled up in the middle.

The group sat side by side, with their legs touching, or even on their luggage.

Xia An glanced around leisurely, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.

Besides the five of them, there were 28 other educated youths in the carriage, half male and half female.

As his gaze swept across the group, only one of the 14 female educated youths had a golden flower appear between her eyebrows.

She was a pretty girl with delicate features and fair skin, dressed in military uniform.

Tsk tsk,

Of the five stunningly beautiful educated youths, four were from Songlin Commune, which is a bit outrageous.

but……

Of the remaining thirteen people, there are several who are prettier than Ye Qingxuan, so why is Ye Qingxuan so special?

A hint of doubt flashed in Xia An's eyes. Could it be... one of the four great evil arts, disguise?

"Hold on tight, we're about to start moving!"

At this point, the driver, seeing that it was about time, shouted, got into the car, and closed the door.

Immediately afterwards, the engine roared from the cab.

As soon as the truck started moving, the cargo bed began to shake.

Someone lost their balance and stumbled into the person next to them, which elicited a burst of quiet laughter.

"Hey, do you think the provincial capital is far from Songyuan County?"

Someone asked softly,

"It's quite far."

A female educated youth chimed in, "I had inquired before, and it takes more than ten hours to travel from Bingcheng to Songyuan County."

"If we set off now, we won't arrive until almost evening, barring any unforeseen circumstances."

"That's quite far," a male educated youth remarked, his lips twitching slightly.

The others also looked slightly bitter, secretly lamenting their misfortune.

Seeing this, one of the male educated youth clapped his hands and said with a smile:

"I see everyone is a bit down, how about we sing a song together?"

"Okay, what should we sing?"

Everyone composed themselves and looked up at them.

How about singing "Sailing the seas depends on the helmsman"?

"Can."

"A ship sails the seas thanks to its helmsman, and all things grow thanks to the sun..."

As the male educated youth started, everyone joined in humming along.

Even Xia An subconsciously hummed a few lines along.

Although he couldn't sing, his identity happened to be able to sing it.

When the song ended,

The crowd became more animated, and people began chatting in small groups.

But this excitement didn't last long.

As the truck jolted, everyone felt uncomfortable, and the atmosphere inside the truck became heavy.

Xia An and the other four leaned against the front panel of the truck bed. Because they were close to the driver's cab, the bumps were much less.

At this moment, his eyes were slightly closed, and his consciousness fell into the spiritual spring space.

Besides Jiang Mengmeng's daily check-in, there were three more check-ins, but the rewards weren't much.

But that's not a small number either.

Among the rewards, those who interacted with Shen Nianchu and signed in received three catties of osmanthus cake and ten catties of brown sugar.

And 14 random tickets,

分别是5斤粮票2张、5斤肉票4张、一斤油票2张、工业票5张和十尺布票1张。

By contacting Shen Nian'an and signing in, you will receive 10 vouchers for daily necessities, 10 jin of white sugar, 30 apples, and an apple tree sapling.

By interacting with Ye Qingxuan and signing in, you will receive 10 Great Unity cards, 5 catties of White Rabbit milk candy, and mastery of Tai Chi.

Xia An smiled slightly, feeling fairly satisfied with these few sign-ins.

Putting everything else aside, he quite liked the money and the pistol.

That Rejuvenating Pill is also good; it can stop bleeding, remove blood stasis, and help wounds heal quickly by forming scabs.

In a critical moment, it can save your life.

There's also Tai Chi. Now that he has mastered it, he can unleash three times his physical strength, greatly enhancing his self-defense capabilities.

In addition, there is an apple sapling, according to the enlightenment previously transmitted by the Spirit Spring Space.

The saplings need a month to grow, and they can bear fruit normally in the second month.

With that thought in mind, Xia An planted the apple sapling in a corner of the woodland.

He plans to wait until the apple trees grow a bit bigger before taking cuttings to make a total of ten.

In this way, once these saplings grow up, they will bear fruit once a month, ensuring a sufficient supply of apples.
