Chapter 99 A Rich Harvest

He Mi: "To hide without revealing, to hide without showing, to conceal without revealing is the way."

Han Li was stunned when he heard this. Did He Mi notice his interaction with Aunt Liu?

"I don't know what you mean?"

He Mi saw Han Li break into laughter, and she felt that the depression just now seemed to have disappeared a lot.

"Then how about we have a chat after dinner?"

Let's talk about it? Are you kidding me? Han Li has never won a game of Go with He Mi. He was so worried that he went to seek help.

"Let's give it another day. The strings in my mind have been a little tight these past two days. I plan to have a drink and have a good night's sleep."

"Then I'll find you another day."

"Okay."

When he got home, Han Li not only made wine, he actually had a drink before going to bed.

The next day when the morning star was still high in the sky, he had already climbed up from the kang full of energy.

People are forgetful, and today everyone seems to have returned to their usual state.

It was still a day of hard work for Han Li, but at the end of work, the team leader called everyone for a meeting.

First he told the recent events, then he talked a lot, and finally he spoke.

"Tomorrow is a big gathering in the county. Considering that the autumn harvest is coming soon, if you have anything you need to prepare, you can go there tomorrow."

Despite what Captain Liang said, there were still very few people going to the county seat. Everyone just didn't want to waste this work point.

Not many educated youths want to go to the county town, because work points are more effective at this time.

If you don’t work hard during the autumn harvest, your team will really lose points, and the deductions will be particularly heavy.

Sometimes after working for a whole day, I end up racking up several days of work points.

Hao Hongmin and the others had already asked for leave, but they planned to lie in the house all day.

Han Li first exchanged two bags with villagers and filled them with mountain goods, preparing to send them home tomorrow.

Then he took out a small jar and went to the beehive to get some honey, and then paired it with the statue he made with the best pine trees. It would be a gift for Aunt Liu's house tomorrow.

Han Li set off early the next morning in an ox cart. There were many people on the cart today, all of them carrying bags and baskets.

After all, this market is quite important to many people, and many things can be purchased legally here.

Even small industrial products such as wash basins and enamel cups that are not used by ordinary people can be used, but larger ones such as thermos bottles cannot be used.

Han Li first went to the post office to mail the things back, and then went to find Aunt Liu with the things.

"You kid is finally willing to come over. The last time I heard that something happened to the educated youth from Shanghe Village, I was almost scared to death."

Aunt Liu chatted a lot when they met, talking about a lot of recent trends, which made Han Li avoid it more.

Of course, there is also the result of Zhang San's treatment. Another news is that something like this happened in Shanghe Village this time.

As a result, the number of educated youth in the village is a bit small, and the superiors will send some more educated youth there.

When she saw Han Li taking out this small statue, Aunt Liu held it with great curiosity and looked at it carefully before saying.

"I haven't reminded you about Zhang San yet. Even if you have this skill, don't do it again."

Han Li quickly said that Zhang San had not been in trouble when he did this, and promised not to do this easily again in the future.

Once the statue is ready, it will be of great use even if it is placed at home, and honey is more to Aunt Liu's taste, so she did not push it out this time.

Aunt Liu stood up and went to the cabinet nearby, reached out and took out a small crossbow and a book and handed them to Han Li.

"I didn't bother to talk to you about the last time you killed a wild wolf. Recently, you personally participated in killing a wild boar. I know that you are not a safe man. In order to increase your safety, I asked someone to help you. I found a crossbow. Although it’s not big, it’s very powerful, and it fires three rounds. It’s usually enough with two crossbow boxes. I’ll give it to you for self-defense.”

This is really what he thought of. Han Li had been thinking about buying a crossbow before, but he didn't expect Aunt Liu to find it for him.

This thing is great. It doesn't make a loud sound like a firearm, and it can ensure your safety to the greatest extent in the mountains.

And now that he has this sample, he can get it out at any time in the future, and the cost is nothing more than a headache for a while.

Aunt Liu looked at Han Li just playing with the crossbow and said a little angry without even looking at the book.

"You kid, don't think about wielding swords and guns all day long. Please give me this barefoot doctor's manual. I'll recruit a group of medical staff in the village by spring at the latest. First, take the exam in the commune. After you go to school, you have to train in the county for a period of time. Although the barefoot doctor is both a farmer and a doctor, there is no formal establishment and salary at the beginning, but you can use the excuse of picking medicine, preparing medicine, and receiving medicine to do it openly and honestly. You don’t have to work in the fields, so you study hard for me, and when you succeed, I won’t be afraid of your mother’s letters and nagging.”

"Aunt Liu, do you plan to let me be a village doctor?"

"Yes, but it must be done beautifully. If you fail to pass the exam in the commune at the beginning, be careful."

Han Li flattered him wildly to express his gratitude.

When he saw that Aunt Liu was planning to take him home for dinner, Han Li quickly said that he had made an appointment with his comrade to go to the market together.

However, before he left, he was given several bills by Liu Yisai again. This favor seemed to be owed more and more!

Han Li put the crossbow in the backpack and covered it with a bunch of things.

The first stop was the scrap yard. After walking around, he didn't find anything good.

Finally, he bought a bundle of old newspapers, some scrap iron and scrap iron sheets and left.

Only then did Han Li come to the so-called market. At a glance, there were indeed many people.

There were not only various mountain products picked up from the mountains and vegetables grown in private plots, but occasionally there were eggs in almost every basket, but most of these things were used to exchange for food.

There were also many workers in state-owned factories, who were secretly processing the benefits distributed to them by the factory.

Han Li exchanged for some kelp here, which was a good thing. It was delicious whether it was cold or stewed with meat.

It was a pity that the place where he went to the countryside was not close to the sea, otherwise he could just go to the beach to pick it up.

Maybe it was because of the big market today, even the dog sellers who should have appeared in the grove in the north of the city appeared on the edge.

Han Li walked around for a while and didn't find what he urgently needed, so he walked over following the barking of the dog.

He still wanted to have a dog in his heart, so that he could guard the house when the weather got cold.

As for whether to take it into the mountains, it depends on the situation. After all, he doesn't have such a strong demand for a hunting dog that can hunt.
