Break out of the courtyard

Chapter 192 Filling the pit with tears
February 1968, 2, Wednesday, cloudy.

Outside Courtyard No. 7 on the north bank of Houhai, Zhao Jianguo and more than classmates were blaming Liu Yuan and Ye Juan who had just arrived.

He Zijiang and a dozen of his classmates sat languidly in the open space outside Courtyard No. 8. They had resentments in their hearts, but they did not dare to vent them like Zhao Jianguo and the others did.

"Organizing Committee member, what do you think we should do about tomorrow's train?"

"I want to go, and the whole school will go together! Isn't Liu Yuan capable? Let her write a letter in the name of the school and report it to Banna Prefecture!"

……

The students in Class 2, Grade , are so angry!

If they hadn't vented their anger a few days ago, they would have beaten Liu Yuan, who had been hiding for more than ten days, to half to death.

Zhang Heping originally hated Liu Yuan with a passion. He had planned to be a street kid for a few years for the sake of his wife and children, but he encountered such a troublesome thing.

But on February 2, Lou Xiaoe saw that Zhang Heping was so powerful that she came to ask Zhang Heping to save her father, Lou Bancheng...

And the warning was, "Lou Bancheng, I will rescue you. I only need you to go to the villa at No. 8 Kowloon Tong as soon as possible after arriving on Hong Kong Island. If you do this, our friendship will still be there; if you don't Do it, hum..."

"Okay, come here and listen to me!" Zhang Heping sat on the steps at the door of No. 7 Courtyard and shouted.

Last night on the 6th, with a warning from Zhang Heping, Lou Bancheng took his family to Tianjin Port and took a boat to go south.

He also promised Zhang Heping that he would transfer Zhang Heping out of Banna Prefecture through recruitment within five years.

Zhang Heping looked around and saw that no one was speaking, so he spoke again: "Since the matter is a foregone conclusion, let's not talk about what happened before and talk about going south."

According to Lou Xiao'e's original words, as long as Zhang Heping can help her rescue her father, her sister-in-law can do anything.

When Lou Xiao'e said this, Zhang Heping became interested.

"To plant rubber trees in Banna Prefecture, we need to pass five levels and kill six generals!"

……

Due to Lao Liu's kindness in allowing Zhang Bing to be admitted to the 601 Special Needs Ward of the Capital Xuanwu Hospital and their friendship over the past few years, Zhang Heping gritted his teeth and admitted it.

"This first level is the thinking level!"

"We are not the first ones to grow rubber, nor are we the last ones. So, if others can endure hardship and contribute to the country, why can't we?"

"Everyone knows how difficult it is to find rubber when making prosthetics before. This is a strategic material that our country is in short supply of!"

Speaking of which, Lou Bancheng asked someone to break Silly Zhu's hand. I don't know if this is considered retribution.

Then, the small matter of rescuing Lou Bancheng was handed over to Lao Liu, claiming that Lou Bancheng was the eldest cousin's ex-father-in-law. That boy was unkind, and he, Zhang Heping, could not be unjust.

As a result, Si Zhu couldn't use her strength after recovering from her broken hand, couldn't bend a spoon, and her cooking skills had regressed. She hadn't been to the big leader's house for a long time, which made her wait in vain.

Just when Zhang Heping was hesitating whether it was worth using Grandma Yang's connections to save Lou Bancheng for a message, Uncle Liu came to plead with Liu Yuan, asking Zhang Heping to take more care of Liu Yuan after he went south.

As he finished speaking, a group of classmates reluctantly sat around Zhang Heping.

Zhang Heping frowned and stared at Liu Yuan and Ye Juan on the side of the road. It wasn't until they came over in a hurry that he spoke:
"Let me ask first, can the matter of going south to Banna Prefecture tomorrow be changed?"

He initially wanted Lou Xiao'e to escape directly to Hong Kong Island and bring him a message, but Lou Xiao'e and her mother had no way to go.

According to Lou Xiao'e, she had learned that Sha Zhu knew a big leader, so she asked Sha Zhu to help save her father.

Some students complained, "But growing rubber takes a long time! How many years does it take to burn wasteland, raise seedlings, wait for the rubber trees to grow up, and then cut the rubber!"

Zhang Heping finished his words and waited for other students to vent their complaints before continuing: "Narrow-minded!"

"You only see what you want to see, but you don't see the whole picture."

"Let me tell you, from a national level, how many junior high school, high school, technical secondary school, junior college, and university graduates there are in the Class of 66, Class of 67, and the Class of 68 that we are in? How many of them have found a job? "

Zhang Heping looked around again and said in a slightly high tone: "According to this attitude, will the country find a way to resettle these graduates?" "Think about the educated youth going to the countryside promoted in the past few years, think about the magic city Wanduo's 66th class of graduates went to the border swearing-in ceremony, think about why we are being promoted as typical examples?"

"This is the general trend. Sooner or later we will be assigned to go to the countryside to farm."

"I'd rather farm in the suburbs!" Zhao Jianguo interjected dissatisfiedly.

"Look at your virtue!" Zhang Heping glanced at Zhao Laoliu with a strong warning, "Farming in the suburbs is a beautiful idea! Just watch it! Once a large-scale countryside is sent to the countryside, ninety-nine percent of the people in the big courtyard will be able to do it. He was sent to northern Shaanxi to farm, do you know why?"

He Zijiang echoed: "Inherit the hard-working spirit of our ancestors!"

"Understood!" Zhang Heping gave He Zijiang an appreciative look, and then said:
"Compared with northern Shaanxi, which is severely short of water, I would rather go to Banna Prefecture, which is rich in materials; I heard that the Dai girls there are very beautiful, and they don't shy away from people bathing in the river."

"I heard from the first group of people who passed by that when they passed by the shore, they often saw some women bathing in the river, and waved them down to wash together, but they were too shy to go. If it were me... "

Hearing this, a group of eighteen or nineteen-year-old boys were either wretched, hopeful, tightened their mouths, or had flushed faces...

"Brother Heping, do they wear clothes when taking a shower?" Zhang Jianguo smiled obscenely.

"Rogue!" Ye Juan couldn't help but cursed.

Liu Yuan, who was next to Ye Juan, looked at Zhang Heping with a complicated expression, and suddenly regretted her decision!

At the end of November last year, when she went to study with activists like Kang Cai and Wang Wei, she happened to meet students from the 11th Middle School and the 25th Middle School in the capital discussing how to plant rubber together in Banna Prefecture.

Liu Yuan felt uncomfortable thinking about Zhang Heping's alienation from her and the separation after graduation.

When she heard that group of students say that if they wanted to go to Banna Prefecture to plant rubber, they would have to be mentally prepared not to come back for at least ten years, she was moved!

In order to take Zhang Heping to Banna Prefecture to plant rubber, and to prevent him from going, Liu Yuan made a bold decision and tricked the whole class into going together!

However, when Zhang Heping mentioned that the Dai girls were beautiful, Liu Yuan felt inexplicably panicked...

"It would be me!" Zhang Heping said righteously: "I will definitely tell the girls in our class as soon as possible and ask them to talk to those Dai girls about privacy issues, don't you think so?"

"It's necessary!" In order to save his image, Zhao Jianguo hurriedly agreed: "I saw it, and I immediately reported it to the organizing committee! After the organizing committee goes to the river to confirm, we will report to the girls."

"Get out!" Zhang Heping scolded with a smile and said seriously: "Okay, no more joking. The reason why I mentioned the beautiful Dai girls is to vaccinate you in advance."

"Whether you are a male student or a female student, please pay attention! If you fall in love with a local and form a de facto marriage, it is really possible for you to stay in Banna Prefecture for a long time."

"If you can control it, there are actually many ways to leave Banna Prefecture, such as: becoming a soldier!"

Hearing the word "soldier", many students' resistance dropped. Everyone is related, and being a soldier is too easy.

Some students asked uncertainly: "Organizational committee member, we just went over and we left as soldiers, isn't it good?"

"This question goes back to the placement issue of third-year graduates mentioned earlier." Zhang Heping said with a smile: "How much rubber can we grow with this small amount of people?"

"We are just set up as role models. We should take the lead. When large numbers of graduates follow us to Banna Prefecture, we will be the seniors!"

"Having said that, let's get down to business!" Zhang Heping said seriously: "From tomorrow, February 2, to the time when a large number of graduates go south to Banna Prefecture, there will be a few months' time difference."

"If you don't want to work hard for two or three years in clearing land and planting trees, you have to make use of this time difference. You must show 300% of your energy to outsiders."

"Then everyone will show their talents and be transferred to government agencies, factories, schools, hospitals, cultural troupes, etc. in Banna Prefecture, leaving the rubber trees to the newcomers to plant. Let's just wait for orders to return to the city or to recruit troops. You all understand!"

"Understood!" Zhao Jianguo stood up excitedly, "Brother Heping is indeed the wise man in our class, everyone applauds!"

After all the students applauded excitedly, Zhang Heping said with a smile:

"Now that everyone has no ideological baggage, let's talk about the second level, the labor level!"
