Siheyuan: Traveling through three years to gain the power of a palm

"Come on, we're studying maintenance. If it breaks, we can just fix it. It's no big deal."

Huang Ming didn't refuse anymore and rode away with Jiang Fan. Looking at his classmates who were still squeezing into the bus, Huang Ming felt very relieved.

Huang Ming also wanted a bicycle, but he would not trouble Jiang Fan. As they were both students in the technical secondary school maintenance class, Huang Ming was confident that he could refurbish the bicycle himself.

Back in Nanluoguxiang, Huang Ming and Jiang Fan broke up.

Jiang Fan returned to Courtyard No. 95, and saw his third uncle Yan Bugui sitting at the gate resting.

"Jiang Fan, are you back from school?"

Yan Bugui knew at a glance that Jiang Fan came back empty-handed today.

"Yes, Third Uncle, you didn't water the flowers today?"

"How can you water the flowers every day? They'll drown. Let's go fishing together tomorrow."

Yan Bugui fanned himself and extended an invitation to Jiang Fan.

"Not this week. I have plans with my classmates to go out and play. Maybe next time."

Jiang Fan shook his head. He did have something to do this week. There were quite a few supplies in the farm space, but the variety of supplies was still not rich enough. He planned to replenish some this time.

In Jiang Fan's current farm space, there are nearly a hundred chickens, ducks, geese, etc., as well as a lot of eggs and various vegetables.

The seeds provided by the system are very effective. The wheat is now mature. One hundred acres of wheat have yielded 150,000 kilograms of grain and 130,000 kilograms of flour.

On average, one acre of land can yield 1,500 kilograms of grain. There is storage space in the farm space, which can only store items produced in the farm space.

He decided to stop growing wheat and try something else: soybeans, peanuts, corn, etc. So he decided to go to Pigeon City.

When we arrived at the front yard, the whole family was sitting at the door.

"Dad, Mom, I'm back."

"My son is back."

The family came to greet them, and Jiang Ping'an took the bicycle from Jiang Fan and pushed it home.

Surrounded by his family, Jiang Fan returned home.

The Jiang family knew Jiang Fan was coming home today, so Shen Yue went to the market early to buy some vegetables. Everything was ready, just waiting for Jiang Fan to come back.

Had dinner.

Jiang Fan began to tell his family about his school life this week. When they heard that there was a teacher with a furry face, everyone was very curious.

Jiang Yu asked Jiang Fan if Andre had yellow hair, a high nose bridge and blue eyes.

Jiang Fan was at a loss for words and told Jiang Yu that it was not yellow hair, but blond hair.

They chatted until nine o'clock in the evening, and then Jiang Fan returned to the room.

The next day, after dinner, Jiang's father and Jiang Ping'an went to work at the steel mill. The mill operates six days a week, with Sunday as the only day off.

Jiang Fan also went out and found Huang Ming's home according to the address given by Huang Ming.

"Who are you looking for, young man?"

At the door, an old man in his sixties looked at Jiang Fan warily.

"Uncle, I'm looking for Huang Ming. I'm his classmate and I'm here to go out and play with him."

Smoke out, light a fire.

"Looking for Huang Ming? It's in the middle courtyard. Just go through that door."

When the old man heard that the person was looking for Huang Ming, he relaxed.

"Thank you, sir."

In the middle courtyard, Huang Ming was dressed neatly, followed by a little girl of five or six years old.

"You're here, Brother Fan. I was thinking of looking for you. This is my sister, Huang Doudou. Doudou, this is my classmate. You can just call Jiang Fan brother."

Huang Ming was very happy to see Jiang Fan.

"Hello, Brother Jiang Fan."

"Hello to you too, Doudou."

Jiang Fan took out a handful of candy from his pocket (system space) and put it in Doudou's hand.

"Thank you, Brother Jiang Fan."

"Brother Fan, just give her one piece of candy, don't give her so much. Eating too much candy is bad for her teeth."

"Don't worry about it. It's for Doudou, not for you."

Huang Doudou ate a piece of candy, made a face at Huang Ming, and went home happily.

"Let's go, let's go directly to the Drum Tower and wait for them there."

"Okay, Brother Fan."

"I didn't ride a bike today. It's up to you whether to take a car or walk."

"Let's walk and get some exercise."

……

Drum Tower.

After the six people got together, they wandered around the Drum Tower.

Although Jiang Fan had no interest, he joined in the fun.

There really isn't anything fun to do now, there are few entertainment facilities, and the items provided are not as abundant as in later generations. It just has a bit of an antique feel.

It would be nice to visit such attractions in a few decades, but there is really nothing to see here now.

At noon, we had some fried liver at a roadside stall. (I looked it up online and it said there was a roadside stall.)

After resting for a while, Huang Ming and others decided to go to the library.

"Huh? The library? Why are you thinking of going there? Why are you thinking of studying instead of taking a good rest this weekend?"

Jiang Fan was a little surprised. After a week of getting along with them, he could see that among these people, Wang Mu and Xu Hao had better academic performance, while Huang Ming, Mo Yang and Cheng Lin were just average in the class.

But to say that they particularly love studying is nonsense.

"Brother Fan, didn't Huang Ming say that you learned a lot after reading books in the library? We want to go and take a look too."

Wang Mu scratched his head and said embarrassedly.

"That's it? Okay, let's go. I'll go borrow a few books and recommend some to you."

Jiang Fan understood and agreed.

Chapter 26 Final

Time flies, and the end of the semester is here in the blink of an eye.

"Ding-ling-ling" the bell for the end of get out of class rang.

"Okay, classmates, this semester's classes are over. The final exam will be the day after tomorrow. I hope everyone can study hard and get good grades. Do you have confidence?"

"Have!"

"Very good, very energetic! After class, Jiang Fan, come with me to the office."

Under everyone's envious gaze, Jiang Fan followed Lao Wei out of the classroom.

During the past six months of study, Jiang Fan did not show off his strong maintenance skills too much, but only demonstrated a very high level of Russian.

I also passed the advanced translation exam and obtained a translation certificate.

Teacher Andre also expressed admiration for Jiang Fan's Russian proficiency. He said he had never seen a student with such rapid learning progress even in Russia.

In the past six months, he took Jiang Fan on business trips, and Jiang Fan acted as an interpreter when they went to various factories for maintenance.

Even the technicians in the factory could not watch the process, but Jiang Fan could.

Especially during the factory reception, Jiang Fan's performance of drinking a thousand cups without getting drunk shocked Andre.

The relationship between the two became even more friendly. Andre would explain to Jiang Fan in detail many things that were not covered in class. He truly regarded Jiang Fan as his "personal disciple."

"Brother Fan is going on a business trip again. He can earn money before he even graduates. How enviable."

"You're envious, right? If you had that ability, you could do it too. I feel like Brother Fan could graduate directly now."

"Where do you think Brother Fan will go this time?"

"Who knows? Last time I went to the textile factory, I brought back some defective cloth. I don't need to buy new clothes for the New Year."

Thanks to Jiang Fan's help, his roommates' academic performance has greatly improved. In the past six months, each of them has saved up enough money to buy a car. They are very grateful to Jiang Fan.

"Jiang Fan, sit down."

After entering the office, Lao Wei pointed at a stool and said to Jiang Fan.

Jiang Fan didn't hesitate, and sat on the stool and asked, "Old Wei, where are these Russians from again? They want me to be their translator and drink with them?"

"Yes, it's not far away. It's the Red Star Steel Mill in our Sijiu City. I remember your father worked there, right?"

"Well, my dad and my oldest brother both work as blacksmiths in the steel mill."

In November, Jiang Daniu and Jiang Ping'an participated in the work-level assessment and are now level 7 blacksmiths and level 3 blacksmiths.

People in the yard were also promoted. Liu Haizhong was promoted to level six and is now at the same level as Yi Zhonghai.

Jia Dongxu was also promoted to a higher level and is now a third-level fitter with a salary of 45 yuan, which makes him a high-income earner in the yard.

However, although the family's life improved somewhat due to Xiaodang's birth, it didn't see a significant improvement overall. Qin Huairu was even less favored by Jia Zhangshi, who scolded her for several days, calling her a money-loser! It was unclear whether she was referring to Qin Huairu or Xiaodang.

The day before the exam, Yi Zhonghai accidentally fell off the bed and twisted his hand, missing the exam. This made Yi Zhonghai extremely depressed.

Old Wei took a puff of his cigarette and said, "The steel mill has received a batch of new machines from Big Brother, and they've also brought a few experts from Russia, so we'd like you to be their translator."

"Okay, I understand. When can we go?"

"The day after tomorrow, it happens to coincide with our exam. That's why we asked you to come over. We've agreed to have you take the exam right now. The teachers will give you questions orally, and you'll answer them on the spot and be graded.

Judging from your academic performance, there is no problem."

Jiang Fan agreed immediately without giving it much thought.

Then Lao Wei arranged for the teachers to test Jiang Fan.

……

After the exam, Jiang Fan unsurprisingly received unanimous praise from all the teachers.

"Okay, go pack up and go home. I'll come to your house tomorrow and take you to the steel mill to find out more about the situation. The Mao Xiong expert will be here tomorrow afternoon."

"Okay, I'll wait at home tomorrow."

Jiang Fan returned to the dormitory, told his roommates about the situation, packed his luggage, and rode his bike out of the school gate.

On the way, Jiang Fan saw that no one was around and put all his luggage into the system space.

Along the way, the cold wind was like a knife, and there were only a few people on the street, all walking hurriedly.

Jiang Fan's body has been strengthened and is not afraid of the cold wind.

Along the way, Jiang Fan thought about what he had gained in the past six months.

The system is definitely the biggest plug-in, and it is also Jiang Fan’s biggest secret and reliance. No one can tell this.

Over the past six months, by signing in to the system, Jiang Fan obtained more than enough food and supplies, as well as a large amount of gold and silver jewelry, antique calligraphy and paintings.

Nowadays, with the help of the system, Jiang Fan has achieved great success in machinery (including but not limited to maintenance), medicine, kung fu and other aspects.

Knowing full well the impact of the disaster in the next three years, Jiang Fan asked his family to privately purchase a lot of supplies, most of which he brought back.

Jiang Fan also sent a lot of food to his uncle Jiang Erniu's house in the countryside. The city was different from the countryside; there wasn't much place to hide things.

The cellar in my second uncle's house is very large. For safety reasons, the entrance to the cellar has been moved to my second uncle's house.

As for the source of food, Jiang Fan said, "I have a friend." His family members did not doubt it. After all, it is normal to have one or two friends in school.

The toilet that Jiang Fan had been dreaming of finally started construction and was completed in October. All the toilet equipment was obtained through Li Dajiang, who was now in high spirits.

Under Jiang Fan's guidance, Wang Zhong and Yang Xiong also learned how to repair fans and radios.
