Chapter 59 Looking for a Newspaper

After Lin Yexi got in touch with Xu Dahua, she did not go back to school directly. Instead, she went to a scrap collection station.

These past few days, Lin Yexi read through Lin Xue's book carefully, skipping over the boring plots and picking out the information she needed.

The restoration of academic examinations, the advent of reform and opening up, and the golden age when one could make money even by selling tea eggs were all analyzed and memorized by Lin Yexi.

In the book, Lin Xue went to the scrap collection station several times to try to find antiques, but unfortunately, she didn't know the value of antiques, and she returned empty-handed several times.

Lin Yexi wasn't looking for anything, he just wanted to buy some newspapers.

So far, newspapers are her only way to understand the development trends and policies of this society.

Thinking of this, Lin Yexi felt that he should get a radio.

Time passed quickly as she was thinking about things, and before she knew it she had arrived at the scrap collection station.

There is not only one old man at the scrap collection station, there are four other people working in the yard.

Sorting, classification, recycling and reuse.

To put it bluntly, scrap collection stations also need to make a profit.

After one encounter, Lin Yexibian realized that it would be extremely difficult to find a bargain here.

"Uncle, I'm here to buy some newspapers to paste on the wall."

"Ok!"

The old man at the door just hummed and pointed a finger in the air without even moving his eyelids.

"Thank you, uncle!"

Lin Yexi thanked him with a smile and walked in the direction the old man pointed, which was right within the old man's sight.

The old man who was sitting there saw from the corner of his eye that Lin Yexi went straight to the newspapers, picked up a lot of them, folded them together, picked them up, and came to settle the bill.

"Uncle, how much do these cost?"

Lin Yexi took quite a lot, and the old man didn't weigh it. He just glanced at it and said, "Two cents."

It's rare to see an honest child.

The 'honest' child Lin Yexi happily paid the bill and asked, "Uncle, how often do the newspapers get delivered?"

The old man finally looked up at Lin Yexi.

"How many walls do you have in your house?" Lin Yexi smiled embarrassedly and said, "I'm not a wall-pasting master. I want to take it back and have a look."

When the old man saw Lin Yexi's washed clothes that had turned white, he realized that this was a person who wanted to read a newspaper but could not afford it.

"Come once every three days, I'll keep it for you."

The old man felt a little sympathy because he liked children who were eager to study.

Besides, a newspaper is just a matter of words for him.

Lin Yexi was really surprised by the old man's kindness, but she immediately took the opportunity to thank him: "Thank you, thank you!"

The old man waved his hand impatiently. Lin Yexi knew that he should not disturb him too much, so he immediately walked out of the scrap collection station with a pile of newspapers.

Today's task was completed in excess, and Lin Yexi returned to school with the newspaper.

Just as she entered the school gate, Lin Yexi received a message from Uncle Wang.

High school diplomas will be issued in advance!

"Uncle Wang, you are amazing. There is nothing in this school that you don't know."

Lin Yexi gave a thumbs up and praised Uncle Wang so much that he even called his palm-leaf fan a fan.

"What the hell!"

After the old man and the young man talked for a few words, Lin Yexi returned to the dormitory's large bunk bed.

She was the only one in the room for the time being. She gathered up the newspapers, put part of it into the backpack grid, and left the rest outside.

The early issuance of the graduation certificate was not good news for Lin Yexi because she could no longer live in the dormitory.

She still wants to stay here to finalize her work...

But it doesn’t matter, since there are changes, let’s change them.

Lin Yexi was not entangled.

Even if you find a job, you will have to move out and rent a house sooner or later.

"Xiaoxi? You're back!"
