Reborn in the 60s, I hunt to support my family and even seduce the village beauty.
Chapter 68 The Whole Family Moves to the City
Cheng Min felt frustrated and tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. She got off the kang (a heated brick bed) and wanted to go out for some fresh air.
Upon entering the main room, I looked up and saw Liu Meifen standing by the stove.
The two exchanged a glance, feeling extremely awkward.
Cheng Min's face flushed red instantly.
Did Aunt Liu overhear what I was saying to those young girls?
Trying to get information out of young girls is futile; they won't understand.
But if Aunt Liu were to hear that, it would be too embarrassing!
Liu Meifen didn't know what to say.
He originally wanted to go to the yard to see the big black bear, but he was drawn to the conversation between Cheng Min and the little girls.
Getting caught eavesdropping is so embarrassing!
And judging from the girl's words, she seems to have some interest in the son?
My son's success has brought some worries.
Just like Qin Meiru, she keeps coming to my house, and I can't get rid of her no matter what.
Now, this city girl, Cheng Min, is as beautiful as an angel, and she's actually quite attractive.
The two greeted each other in hushed tones, and Liu Meifen went into the yard to look at the black bear.
Cheng Min felt the atmosphere was too awkward, so she ran back to lie down on the east kang (heated brick bed).
Judging from Aunt Liu's expression, she must have heard me asking about Chang Kun.
That's so embarrassing!
I tossed and turned for ages before finally falling asleep.
One night passed.
Early in the morning, before dawn, Liu Meifen woke up Chang Kun and his son to discuss work matters.
Chang Kun then revealed his plan.
Let my mother go work at the supply and marketing cooperative.
Let my dad handle the work at the police station.
As for myself, I'll go to the animal research institute, where I can make good use of my hunting skills.
These days, money isn't very useful; the key is having supplies.
That's why Chang Kun was able to exchange meat for three jobs.
Rural people envy city dwellers so much.
Because city dwellers have a food ration, they will never go hungry.
Why are jobs in the city called "iron rice bowls"?
It is precisely because of its guaranteed income regardless of drought or flood that people will have food to eat even if they do not work.
At that time, there was no internet, and people only talked about the differences between urban and rural areas.
In later generations, people came to know the difference between those inside and outside the system.
For example, in that scene, a group of elderly people in their sixties were sitting next to a street cleaner who was sweeping the streets in his sixties, playing chess and dancing.
This scene has undoubtedly stung the nerves of countless people.
In the morning, Liu Meifen heated up the leftover meat buns at home and had them for breakfast.
While having breakfast, Chang Kun asked Cheng Jie about his household registration.
He wanted to divide his family into three households, and bring his three younger sisters to the city with each household.
In a few years, the "Down to the Countryside Movement" will come one after another, and a whole family will be squeezed onto one household registration book.
He was worried that his younger sister would be sent to the countryside, and he couldn't bear to do that.
Cheng Jie was a little stunned after hearing this. The family was divided into three households. It was amazing that Chang Kun could come up with such a thing.
But this is for the best.
The current policy on entering the city is very strict; it's already the limit for an adult to bring one child into the city.
The Chang family now consists of six people, divided into three households, making it possible for the whole family to live in the city.
Although there are still some difficulties, with such a big bear here, even the most difficult things can be accomplished.
After breakfast.
Liu Meifen and Chang Dashan got into a jeep and followed the Cheng family to the police station.
They planned to first unload the large black bear at the police station, and then have Cheng Rongjiang take half of it to the animal research institute.
As he left, Cheng Jie pulled a tattered tarpaulin from under the car seat and covered the big black bear with it, barely managing to shield it from the elements.
Seeing that Chang Dashan and Liu Meifen looked a little confused, Cheng Jie explained:
"Grandpa, Grandma, if we don't stop this bear, the news will spread throughout the Drum Tower in no time!"
"By then, so many people will be coming to ask for bear paws; there simply won't be enough to go around."
Chang Kun put the little black bear on the back of his bicycle and found a few tattered burlap sacks to cover it up a bit.
The group hurried into the city.
Leave a few meat buns for the little girls for lunch.
As the car drove along the city streets, passersby all stared at it.
"What was that vehicle carrying?"
"It's all black, could it be a pig?"
"It looks pretty big. Let's follow it and see!"
In an era when meat was scarce in every household, people would get excited at the mere mention of meat.
There are many people in the city, so the car can't go fast. Before long, a large group of people followed behind the car.
Cheng Rongjiang glanced back and patted his son on the shoulder:
"It's a good thing you used a tarpaulin to cover it up. If people had seen that there was a bear in the truck, there would have been more than just this few people following behind."
Those behind the car watched helplessly as the Jeep drove into the police station, and they all sighed in unison.
My desire to eat meat has also been dispelled.
When Chang Kun rode his bicycle into the police station, the people who had been surrounding it had already left.
Cheng Min greeted Chang Kun at the door, asked him to park his bicycle next to the jeep, and took him to the police station canteen.
There was only one head chef in the canteen; the rest of the kitchen helpers had been kicked out.
Half a black bear was lying on the ground, and the master chef was wrapping it up with a tarpaulin.
"My brother took the other half of Black Bear out and told me there wouldn't be any problems with my job."
Cheng Min stood beside Chang Kun and spoke softly.
"Take care of things at the police station first, then go to the animal research institute. The leader there is my uncle, so there won't be any problems."
Chang Kun nodded without saying anything.
A short while later, Cheng Jie returned with an envelope in his hand.
Liu Meifen and Chang Dashan looked at him expectantly.
Cheng Jie smiled slightly and handed the envelope to Chang Dashan.
"Uncle Chang, I have not failed you."
Chang Dashan's palms were sweating. He wiped them on his clothes a few times before carefully taking the envelope.
Liu Meifen watched from the side, her eyes slightly red.
Seeing his parents like this, Chang Kun gently put his arm around their shoulders.
I couldn't help but sigh. In the countryside, going to work in the city is definitely a life-changing event, much more important than getting married and having children.
In some people's eyes, this life-changing event is worth only two bear paws, a matter of them stamping an official seal.
Thinking back to his past life, when he lost his job, his parents didn't even scold him much, but instead hung him up and gave him a good beating. They were really too lenient with him.
Cheng Jie said, "Grandpa, your household registration is in the village. Get a certificate from the village later."
Then you need to get a receipt from the neighborhood committee, and then go to the police station to register your household registration.
Cheng Jie paused for a moment, then, thinking that Chang Dashan, a countryman, would have no way of getting things done, decided to go all the way and changed his words:
"Grandpa, you just need to go back to the village and get a certificate. I'll take care of the rest later."
Chang Dashan didn't understand the process, so it would be great if someone could help him.
He nodded excitedly immediately.
From now on, I will be a city dweller receiving government-supplied food.
He looked at his wife and son from left to right, feeling as if he were dreaming.
Cheng Rongjiang, seeing that the head chef had already wrapped up the remaining half of the bear, spoke up:
"Cheng Jie, take the remaining half of the bear to your uncle and tell him you need a job quota. He'll understand."
Cheng Jie nodded.
The task at the animal research institute is the easiest; all you have to do is send the bears there.
Chang Kun took his mother to the supply and marketing cooperative.
Of these three jobs, the one in the supply and marketing cooperative had the highest social status in those days.
As a sales clerk at the supply and marketing cooperative, I always had the advantage of being close to the source and getting my hands on all kinds of supplies.
If you have a relative who works at a supply and marketing cooperative, everyone in the family will benefit from it.
No wonder it ranks among the top eight officials.
I wonder if Sister Wang Cuiqin and Director Song from the supply and marketing cooperative will be startled when they see the little black bear.
