In the countryside, the eldest must get married first before the younger ones can get married.

The Yang family is in a bit of an awkward situation now.

Yang Songwen's marriage is already in sight, and Jiang Youwei has agreed to marry him.

But Yang Chuanwu doesn't have a partner yet!

Yang Songwen's marriage must wait a little longer, and it can be arranged once Yang Chuanwu gets married as soon as possible.

"It’s all about money!"

Yang Songwen sighed in his heart. He had not been back to the past for long, and he had not had time to improve his family's living conditions.

The main thing was that he had just reversed the lives of many people, including his own.

The next step was to find a way to improve his living standards.

In this era, it was a planned economy.

In the countryside, it was a production brigade.

In the brigade, everyone was allocated food according to work points. The food was actually simple, and they could only get half full. If they wanted to go further, eat enough, wear warm clothes, and have nutrition and taste, that was absolutely impossible.

The most important thing was that materials were extremely scarce in this era.

Materials were still very scarce.

It was far from the great prosperity of commodities in later generations.

If you wanted to buy something, you could only go to the supply and marketing cooperative.

You could only buy what was available in the supply and marketing cooperative. If the supply and marketing cooperative did not have it, you could not buy it even if you had great ability.

Even the most advanced Friendship Store did not exist now.

Only in the late 1970s, after opening up to the outside world, did the Friendship Store have good goods to sell.

Yang Songwen felt that even if he had money at this time, he could not spend it!

This was very sad. Every household was the same, starving and freezing, but they would not starve to death or freeze to death.

"No matter what, we have to renovate Old Yang's house inside and out. It would be best if we could build a few more rooms and buy the three-turn, one-ring, seventy-two-leg……"

"That's all. In this era, these are all signs of a wealthy family!"

Yang Songwen thought to himself, feeling that his efforts had just begun.

How to make money?

It's not enough to have money, you also need tickets! What a headache! For the first time, Yang Songwen felt that this era was not friendly to the reborn. Even if you have money, you can't spend it, and you can't buy good things, because the whole society is in short supply. Many things are not only limited to purchase, but also require tickets. It's really fucked up.

"It seems that I have to find time to go to the county town!"

Yang Songwen asked for leave early the next morning and went to the county town. As soon as he arrived at the gate of the county party committee, the security guard saw Yang Songwen and immediately greeted him happily.

"Isn't this Brother Yang? How come you have time to come to the county?" The security guard smiled.

"I came to discuss something with my uncle Yu. Can you see if my uncle Yu is home?"Yang Songwen was undecided.

"What a coincidence! Today is the weekend, County Magistrate Yu is here, and his wife is here too. You can go up by yourself!"The security guard let him go. Yang Songwen arrived at County Magistrate Yu's house, and it was County Magistrate Yu's wife Xiang Wan who opened the door.

"Hey, Songwen, why are you here?"

Xiang Wan was surprised to see Yang Songwen, who looked exhausted and carrying a snakeskin bag in his hand.

"I came to the county town today and stopped by to see Uncle Yu and Qingqing!" Yang Songwen smiled.

The surprised voice of County Magistrate Yu came from the room:"It's Songwen, come in quickly!"

The wife of the county magistrate hurriedly invited Yang Songwen into the room. A small figure ran in and pounced on Yang Songwen.

It turned out to be Yu Xiaoqing.

""Brother, why did you come to see our daughter just now?" Yu Xiaoqing was very happy and pouted.

Yang Songwen was happy and took out some country fruits from the snakeskin bag and stuffed them into Yu Xiaoqing's hands.

Yu Xiaoqing immediately took a delicious bite and her little face was very satisfied.

Yang Songwen sat down, and County Magistrate Yu looked Yang Songwen up and down and nodded:"Not bad, it seems that you have grown taller. Have you thought it through and are willing to find a job in the county and eat the public grain in peace?"

"That's not the case!"

Yang Songwen smiled and shook his head.

Originally, Yu Changqing and his wife wanted to help Yang Songwen find a job, but Yang Songwen refused.

For them, arranging a job with royal salary was just a matter of words.

But he just didn't accept it.

County Magistrate Yu and his wife also wanted to give Yang Songwen money, but Yang Songwen still didn't want it.

This made the county magistrate and his wife very helpless!

"Uncle Yu, I understand what you and Aunt Xiang mean, but there is not much point in working in the county because I want to go to Beijing in the future!"

"Going to Beijing?"

Yu Changqing and Xiang Wan were slightly surprised,"Why are you going to Beijing, for tourism?"

"How can it be a trip? I want to pass the college entrance examination and go to Beijing. I want to go to university!" Yang Songwen grinned:"I believe it won't be too long. It's just right for me to work hard in advance during this period!"

"College entrance examination? What college entrance examination? Where is the college entrance examination?"

County Magistrate Yu frowned. Even he had no news. How could Yang Songwen, a capable countryman, have accurate information?

"Yes, but it will take a few years!"

Yang Songwen smiled mysteriously:"Uncle Yu doesn't know yet, right?"

Yu Changqing shook his head.

Even Xiang Wan was confused.

"Songwen, how could you have such an idea? The higher-ups have absolutely no plan to restore the college entrance examination. They are now... working hard on the campaign, so how can they have the time to engage in education? Look at how many"stinking ninths" have been sent down to the lower levels and have not returned yet... Look at the schools now, classes have been suspended for a long time!"

"The higher-ups don’t really have this intention now, but what if they change people?" Yang Songwen whispered.

"Be careful with your words!" Yu Changqing was shocked and quickly stopped him!

Such words cannot be said now.

Yang Songwen nodded and said with a smile:"So, Uncle Yu does not have to worry about my future. Now, I want to ask Uncle Yu for help, which is another matter!"

"Oh, what help do you need? Tell me!"

Yu Changqing perked up. He had always wanted to repay Yang Songwen, but he had no chance.

A thousand-foot-high wall stands firm without desires.

Yang Songwen was like a person who asked for nothing, which made them very distressed.

Now, Yang Songwen wanted to help, which was really like a pillow being offered when one was sleepy.

Yang Songwen then told the story of Yang Chuanwu, and then told the story of himself and Jiang Youwei.

The county magistrate's wife smiled and was very happy:"Songwen, I knew that you and Jiang Youwei were destined to be together as educated youth, and sure enough, it worked out!"

"Thank you, Auntie. Jiang Zhiqing and I are going to be together!" Yang Songwen was very satisfied with himself. He was indeed reborn. It didn't take him too much time to seduce the most beautiful educated youth.

Yu Changqing was also very happy:"You mean, you want me to help your elder brother find a job in the county town to get a salary? Only in this way can he stay away from women like Malanhua? Only in this way can he find a good wife?"

"Yes, Uncle Yu, is it difficult to find a job?"Yang Songwen said

"Okay, I agree!"

Yu Changqing decided to meet Yang Songwen's request.

Yang Songwen finally opened his mouth, so he had to make arrangements.

So, County Magistrate Yu picked up the phone on his desk and made a call.

After two calls, County Magistrate Yu finally made arrangements.

"It's a textile factory. They are still short of people, one for quality inspector and one for kitchen logistics management and purchasing. What do you think your eldest brother wants to do?" Yu Changqing said

"Then let's go for logistics management. I heard this job is a bit lucrative?" Yang Songwen laughed.

"You are really smart. Logistics management is indeed a very lucrative job and is very suitable for your elder brother. So it's settled. I will call and give instructions later. Tomorrow you can ask your elder brother to report directly to the personnel department of the county textile factory!"

"Is that all? Is it a formal position, and can I eat the emperor's salary?"

"It must be a formal position, I still have some face!"

Yu Changqing comforted:"Don't worry, as long as your brother has this job, he wants to get married immediately, there must be a lot of girls willing to marry him, ask your mother to prepare the betrothal gifts first, do you want me to prepare one or two for you?!"

"No, I have my own way!"

Yang Songwen refused.

Well, Yu Changqing and his wife have long been used to it.

When Yang Songwen came out of the county magistrate's house, he already had a job quota in the county textile factory!

Although there was only one quota, it showed the ability of County Magistrate Yu.

Back at the old Yang's house in Kaoshantun, Yang Songwen was in a good mood.

"Second brother, did you go to County Magistrate Yu's house?" Zhang Guifen brought up a bowl of rice and a plate of pickles.

Yang Songwen took a few bites and said,"That's right, I went to the county magistrate to ask for a job!"

"What kind of job is this?" Zhang Guifen and Yang Chuanwu were both confused.

"Logistics management and procurement of a textile factory!" Yang Songwen told him about the job,"This is a job I found for my elder brother!"

"What, you found a job for me? Second brother, you don’t want to eat the emperor’s food?" Yang Chuanwu was stunned!
