Chapter 23 Stamps

Seeing that there were still a lot of seeds left, Zhang Guifang asked several men in the family to clear up the allocated area and also sprinkle some rapeseeds.

However, because Zhang Yu planted a lot of spinach and cabbage, she did not plant much. Instead, she planted a lot of white radish.

Because the vegetable plots they were allocated were small, the housewives in each family were careful about how to grow more vegetables in a smaller area.

No, they have spontaneously learned to interplant.

In fact, when Zhang Yu first came to this world, he chose to work first because he felt that he did not understand the world and had no sense of security. Furthermore, having attended high school and college in his previous life, he did not really think about spending time in the darkness of high school.

It’s a day of study.

Now that he understands the world, he understands that academic qualifications will help you avoid many obstacles in today's society, and even help you achieve success in one step.

The most obvious one is that during the internship period of technical secondary school students, they are divided into level 16 and receive a salary of 37 yuan. After becoming a full-time student, the level will be upgraded to a level and the salary will become 42.5 yuan. However, during the internship period of college students, they are level 14 and can receive a salary of 48.5 yuan.

, after becoming a full-time employee at level 13, he will receive a salary of 55 yuan.

You know, because of my parents' reasons, I was given an exception to the job quota. I skipped several levels, skipped the temporary job, and started directly from the regular job. I also skipped two levels in the middle, and I only received a salary of 27.5 yuan a month.

Thinking of this, he did some calculations and stopped the college entrance examination in 1966. It was not until October 21, 1977, that the People's Daily announced its official resumption with the headline "Major Reforms in College Enrollment."

Although workers and farmers, educated young people who have gone to the countryside or returned to their hometowns, demobilized soldiers, cadres and recent high school graduates can participate, there are some age restrictions. The age of candidates can be relaxed to thirty years old.

But he was 15 years old in 1958. In 1977, he passed his age. When the college entrance examination was resumed for the first time, his thoughts on the exam were in vain.

Then he could only finish college and be assigned before 1966. Then he could no longer sit idle and put most of his mind into studying.

After all, after three years of high school, if you do well in the exam, you can be admitted to college in 2016 and be able to work in 65.

At this time, his junior high school classmates came to visit him. He did not go to school for the last period of time because of his injury, and only took the exam during the high school entrance examination.

After taking the exam, I went straight to class and became busy again. I became a lot estranged from my classmates in junior high school.

The person who came to see him this time was his junior high school monitor, whose academic performance was among the best in the class.

Liu Hongtao picked up two pastries and, led by Zhang Guifang, walked towards Zhang Yu's house.

When he was about to reach the door, he shouted in a loud voice: "Xiaoyu, your classmate sees you coming."

"Come on, come on, squad leader" Zhang Yu shouted in surprise: "Come in, come in.

After the three people sat down, Zhang Yu took out a cup and poured water, "Squad leader, drink some water."

"No, no, no, I'll just sit down and get better. Is your injury healed?"

When the two of them were about to chat, Zhang Guifang was ready to leave. After all, she was here and the two of them couldn't chat.

Moreover, Xiaoyu has lost a lot of friends since he was injured. Finally, someone came to see him at home, "Xiaoyu, you guys chat, I have something else to do, so I'll go and get busy first."

"Sister-in-law, go and do your work, I will entertain the monitor."

"Aunt, I'll leave after just a minute." Liu Hongtao seemed a little embarrassed when he spoke, and he was obviously a little shy about being his guest.

"Don't leave at noon, stay for dinner, I'll prepare the meal," Zhang Guifang said, then turned around and went to the kitchen regardless of what Liu Hongtao wanted to say.

Zhang Yu waited for the sister-in-law to leave and then asked: "Monitor, what's going on in the class? As you know, I was injured some time ago. I haven't been back to school except for the exam. I haven't seen my classmates much. How did the exam go, classmates?"

Sample?"

"The results this time are pretty good, and many of them did well in the exam."

"Then monitor, your grades are so good, you must have done well in this exam."

"I was admitted to a technical secondary school." Liu Hongtao said with some frustration.

"Didn't you say you want to go to college?" The whole class knows about the monitor's ideals, and his grades are very good. There is a 60% chance that he will go to college.

"My family wants me to study in a technical secondary school. You also know that my father is the only one working in the family. Besides me, I have five younger brothers and sisters, and there are grandparents in my hometown. I can support a whole family with only my father's salary.

People are in a very difficult situation. I should come down as soon as possible and earn money earlier, so that I can support my family."

Then seeing Liu Hongtao's lowered head, Zhang Yu understood. It's not that technical secondary school is better than university, but that for ordinary families, studying in technical secondary school is more cost-effective than studying in university.

Studying in a technical secondary school means graduating early. You will be assigned a good job upon graduation, you will get an iron rice bowl, you can transfer your household registration, you can help support your family, and the whole family will benefit.

If you don't go to technical secondary school, you still have to go to high school for three years. However, the college entrance examination admission rate is very low at this time. Even if the monitor has good grades, there is more than 60% chance of being admitted to college, but there is still nearly 40% chance of not being admitted.

If you fail the college entrance examination, you will lose both your wife and your army.

The class monitor is indeed outstanding and has good grades, but going to a technical secondary school will ensure that he will have a good job after three years. But if he gives up the technical secondary school and goes to high school, he will face huge risks, and his family cannot afford to gamble.

Zhang Yu opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything. He persuaded the class monitor to give up going to technical secondary school and go to high school. It would be a pain in the back to stand and talk, and the burden of the whole family would be placed on one person. It's okay not to mention that feeling.

"Whether you go to a technical secondary school or not, you can get a good job after three years and get a salary of 37 yuan immediately. After you become a full-time employee, you can only get 42.5 yuan. I'm even envious..."

When it came to salary, Liu Hongtao smiled, obviously looking forward to his future life.

At noon, Zhang Yu and Zhang Guifang forced Liu Hongtao to stay at home for dinner. After the meal, they had to go through a "battle" of pushing and shouting. Only one pack of two snacks was left behind.

Whatever cakes you want to eat, bring them back to your brothers and sisters."

In the afternoon, when Zhang Yu saw Liu Hongtao off at the entrance of the alley, Liu Hongtao waved his hand: "Don't see me off. My home is not far from here. Go back quickly."

"Okay, I won't send you off. Please be careful on the road."

Watching Liu Hongtao go away, he happened to bump into his neighbor who worked at the post office and told him that he had a large package for him.

Zhang Yu turned around and went to the post office and found that the packages were sent by his parents' comrades-in-arms. There were six packages in total. The largest one was sent from the army and was sent by several uncles together.

A few young ones were sent from all over the world by comrades who had changed their careers.

It was all kinds of supplements and specialties. When I opened the letter and saw the instructions inside, it was obvious that they knew he was injured.

Zhang Yu felt warm at the concern of these uncles and thought about giving them something in return.

When he was about to go home and pack some things, he saw someone buying stamps. If he read correctly, it was the wrong version of the Ji 54 Student Federation stamp. He knew this stamp very well.

A senior who joined the company with him was bought by a big boss for 800,000 yuan because he found this stamp during the demolition of his home. Remember, that was only 10 years. For this reason, he did not ask for the demolition money, but chose to buy a lot of stamps.

Want a house.

What I am living now is a nourishing one. I never get off work late and never work overtime. Because I have a rent subsidy, I am very proud of those two stamps every time I talk about them.

Zhang Yu was very envious of this. There was a time when he wanted to pick up missing stamps, so he paid special attention to various stamps. But at that time, he did not have that luck, but now that he has, it seems that he will have to pay more attention in the future.

This stamp is issued by the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications of China on September 4, 1958. It is a set of 2 stamps for the "Fifth Congress of the International Student Federation". It was discontinued because the stamp title was mistakenly: "The Fifth Congress of the World Students"

Issued. After correction, it became the "Fifth Congress of the International Student Federation" and was officially issued on the opening day of the conference.

The wrong vote was quickly recalled, and it seemed like he was lucky today.

"Comrade, I also want a few stamps like his."
