Chapter 38733875【College Entrance Examination】
Except for Xiang Nan, no one in the Knocking Tang Gang knows how to repair this radio. And if the radio cannot be repaired, it will have to be sold as scrap. At that time, I will only earn 80 cents at most.
So Chen Jinzhu had to give in.
Xiang Nan nodded, put down the book, and picked up the radio. After looking at it carefully, he found that a diode was loose. To him, this is nothing more than a minor problem.
He immediately found a piece of iron wire, heated it red in the furnace, clicked on the diode pin, and re-soldered the tin. After installing the battery and trying it again, clear sound came out.
“In 1979, higher education institutions adopted the method of voluntary registration, unified examination, and merit-based admission..."
“Daguang, you just poked me like this and you dare to split it into 50%?” Chen Jinzhu said critically at this time.
He didn't expect Xiang Nan to repair the radio so easily. From this point of view, it was really unfair for him to agree to give him 50%.
“Uncle Zhuzi, this poke is only worth a dime. But knowing where to poke is worth nine dollars.” Xiang Nan explained with a smile.
“Da Guang is right, craftsmen earn money from their craftsmanship.” Chen Jinshui said with a smile, “If you don’t have the skills, you have to spend the money.”
Xiang Nan made the candy look big and beautiful, but in fact it didn’t use much candy. But a candy man can be sold for five cents or even a few cents, and that piece of candy is worth only one or two cents at most.
Everyone said again.
“Are you kidding? You haven’t even graduated from elementary school.” Everyone laughed again.
"Dad, after selling this batch of goods, I want to go home. I want to go back and take the college entrance examination." Xiang Nan said again at this time.
“Alas!” Chen Jinzhu felt helpless and angry when he saw them saying this. If you also have this skill, you don't have to be taken advantage of.
"That's good. Daguang is a kid who has always been smart. He might be able to get into college." Chen Jinshui also nodded and said, "Our Chenjia Village has not produced many scholars for generations. If Daguang can really get into college, it will be because of our Chen family." The glory of our village, our ancestral graves in Chenjia Village are smoking."
“That’s right, if we sell the same candies, each candy bar will cost five cents. In fact, the candy is only worth one penny.” Chen Mandun also laughed.
…
“You want to go to university?” Everyone was surprised when they heard this.
“Daguang, our Chenjiacun is looking at you to honor our ancestors.”
Xiang Nan was thirteen years old and had not yet graduated from elementary school, so he started selling goods with the Tangtang Gang. Now he actually talks about going to college, which is simply a fantasy and a fantasy.
“Yes, Daguang, work hard!”
Xiang Nan said that he wanted to take the college entrance examination, which is indeed quite surprising.
“That’s right, my son has been smart since he was a child. He can repair household appliances by reading a book.” Chen Jintu also defended his son and said, “Son, if you take the exam, dad will support you.”
Xiang Nan nodded.
This is the power of craftsmen, you have to accept it.
"Although I haven't graduated from elementary school, I have been studying on my own these years. I think I can do it." Xiang Nan argued for himself.
Hearing what he said, everyone nodded.
College students were the pride of heaven in those days, and only a few lucky ones could get into it. For so many years in Chenjia Village, no one has been admitted to college.
"Zhuzi, my son is really good at his craftsmanship. If you don't repair your radio for him, you can only sell it as scrap." Chen Jintu also said proudly, "I can give you 50%, which is already very cheap for you."
“Dagang, you must be admitted to university.”
…
“Dagang, are you really going to take the college entrance examination?” Chen Jianghe asked Xiang Nandao secretly. "Yes, Brother Ji Feo." Xiang Nan nodded, "The resumption of the college entrance examination means that the country is paying more and more attention to culture and intellectuals, so intellectuals must have a future in the future.
This is an opportunity to change my destiny. I must seize it. After all, I don’t want to spend my whole life digging for sugar. "
“Then can you pass the exam?” Chen Jianghe asked again.
"Whether you can pass the exam or not, you still have to try. It depends on people." Xiang Nan smiled and said, "Brother Ji Feo, I think you should think about it. Do you just want to keep this sugar burden for the rest of your life?"
Hearing Xiang Nan's words, Chen Jianghe couldn't help but be startled.
…
After Xiang Nan sold the goods in his hand, he returned to Chenjiacun and prepared to register for the college entrance examination.
"Son, are you going to take the college entrance examination?" Zhang Jiuxiang was also shocked when he heard the news that his son was going to take the college entrance examination. "Can you really pass the exam?"
“I want to give it a try. If I pass the exam, I’ll take it. If I don’t pass, I’ll try again.” Xiang Nan explained.
“That’s fine.” Zhang Jiuxiang nodded.
It is naturally a good thing to go to university. Even if he fails to pass the exam, with his son's ability, he won't be without food. In the past five years, he has been able to earn four to five hundred yuan a year by cracking candy. He is the most capable young man in the area for dozens of miles.
“Then you prepare for the exam in a down-to-earth manner. Mom will cook whatever you want to eat.” Zhang Jiuxiang said with a smile.
If their son can really get into college, their family will be considered a glorious one.
“Thank you, Mom.” Xiang Nan nodded.
…
“Auntie, I heard that Brother Daguang is back.” At this time, I heard the voice of Qiao Gu in the courtyard.
“It’s Qiaogu, come in quickly, come in quickly.” Zhang Jiuxiang said with a smile.
“Mom asked me to ask Brother Daguang about my dad’s recent situation.” Qiaogu explained again.
“Oh, okay, let’s go in and talk. I’ll go cook. We’ll eat here later.” Zhang Jiuxiang greeted with a smile.
Qiaogu immediately walked into the house. When she saw Xiang Nan, her eyes lit up and she sweetly shouted, "Brother Daguang~"
“You come to see me just to see me, and you’re calling me your mother.” Xiang Nan joked with a smile, “Actually, you don’t have to hide it, my mother knows it.”
Qiao Gu suddenly blushed with embarrassment.
In recent years, the relationship between Xiang Nan and Qiao Gu can be said to have developed by leaps and bounds, growing day by day.
Xiang Nan was good at coaxing girls. Every time he went out and came back, he would bring gifts to Qiaogu, such as silk flowers, handkerchiefs, creams, etc., to make her naturally happy.
In addition to bringing gifts, Xiang Nan has a clever mouth and can also say all kinds of sweet words, which makes Qiaogu dizzy and overjoyed.
Compared to him, other boys are a bit stupid. Even if they want to chase girls, they don’t know how to chase them. If they want to say a few words of love, they don’t know how to say them. They are stupid to death.
Secondly, Xiang Nan has both charm and ability. He successively inherited Fang Yifan's affinity, Cao Xiaoqiang's femininity, Chen Haonan, James Bond, Ding Peng and others' charm.
To women, he is like a human-shaped medicine. Most women will fall in love with him as soon as they see him.
So every time Xiang Nan went out to do business, he would be surrounded by a group of little girls and wives, and business was booming. Even if he doesn't sell out, no one else will be able to open one.
Therefore, although he is young, his ability to make money is higher than that of Chen Jinshui and Chen Jintu. He is a well-known and capable young man within dozens of miles.
Qiaogu naturally fell in love with him. When she heard that he was coming back, she immediately rushed to see him.
