Farewell to Shuangshui Village
The next day, Zhao Dongchuan woke up early as usual, washed up, exercised, and drank porridge.
After this period of exercise, his attributes had noticeably improved.
Host: Zhao Dongchuan
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Constitution: 1.021, Intelligence: 1.01, Agility: 1.021, Strength: 1.021, Free attribute points: 0
Perhaps due to constantly practicing problems with the system pen, his intelligence had also slightly increased.
Zhao Dongchuan went to work as usual, and Sun Shaoan had already arrived, distributing farm tools and assigning tasks. Seeing Zhao Dongchuan, Sun Shaoan also greeted him with a smile.
Sun Shaoan had heard about yesterday's events. Although he was surprised, he was genuinely happy for his younger brother.
"Great poet, you're here!" the crowd teased.
"Haha, everyone, excuse me, excuse me!" Zhao Dongchuan neither boasted nor was modest, as if he had done something ordinary, smilingly responding to the team members' genuine or feigned flattery.
"Go, go, go, all day long you just blabber, go to work!" Sun Shaoan scolded with a laugh.
"Dongchuan, you're truly unfathomable, like a changed person. You work harder, and now you can write poetry. Amazing, amazing!"
"Shaoan, people are always growing!"
"Yes, people are always growing!" Sun Shaoan murmured, a bit dejected.
Zhao Dongchuan saw that Sun Shaoan seemed to have something on his mind. Recalling the plot, could it be that Tian Runye had confessed to him and told him about her Second Aunt introducing her to a blind date?
This was indeed troubling. From a rational perspective, He Xiulian was actually more suitable for Sun Shaoan, but Tian Runye was Sun Shaoan's "white moonlight." The choice between the two was not something an outsider could decide.
In the early stages, Tian Runye and Li Xiangqian's marriage was also a tragedy. After Li Xiangqian became disabled, Tian Runye stayed with him, but in reality, it was just out of compassion. Runye was fulfilling her duty as a wife to compensate for her inner guilt.
Zhao Dongchuan thought that at an appropriate time, he should help Runye stand her ground and reject Li Xiangqian. This would actually be good for both families, but he couldn't tell anyone what would happen in the future; that would certainly make him seem like a "charlatan."
"Cherish the present," Zhao Dongchuan said with a smile.
Sun Shaoan looked at Zhao Dongchuan thoughtfully.
Soon, within two days, the County Cultural Center had completed the work transfer and household registration relocation procedures for Zhao Dongchuan. Commune Director Bai Mingchuan also processed Zhao Dongchuan's youth household registration transfer certificate.
Bai Mingchuan even specially came to Shuangshui Village to deliver the transfer order to Zhao Dongchuan.
To express his gratitude, Zhao Dongchuan personally cooked a simple meal for Bai Mingchuan at his place. The two discussed some literature. Although Zhao Dongchuan was only half-knowledgeable, his knowledge beyond his time was still easy to handle for Bai Mingchuan.
Later, they inevitably talked about some current difficulties, and Zhao Dongchuan also briefly offered his opinions. Bai Mingchuan only nodded at his words.
Clearly, quite a few people shared this idea, as everyone had such expectations.
From the moment Zhao Dongchuan received the transfer order, he was no longer a member of Shuangshui Village. He no longer had to go to work, and naturally, he no longer received rations. From now on, he would be working for the public.
Zhao Dongchuan packed his belongings, putting some daily necessities into his storage ring.
He didn't have many things, so he quickly packed. Zhao Dongchuan only carried a package to avoid drawing attention, containing bedding and other essentials.
When he left, Sun Yuhou's entire family came to see him off. It was the weekend, so Shaoping and Lanxiang were also there, along with some familiar production team members.
"Brother Dong, I wish you a smooth journey," Shaoping said.
"Hahaha, Shaoping, if you ever go to Huangyuan, remember to find me!" Zhao Dongchuan said to Shaoping.
Lanxiang looked at him with slightly red eyes at this moment.
"Oh, you little girl, you're quite sentimental! Life is long, we'll meet again," looking at Lanxiang's cute little face, Zhao Dongchuan couldn't resist and pinched Lanxiang's cheek.
"Study hard, learn diligently, don't just read novels; you need to read Chinese and math too!" Zhao Dongchuan subtly reminded Sun Shaoping.
Bidding farewell to everyone, Zhao Dongchuan rode his bicycle, his figure slowly disappearing into the greening ravines and valleys of the yellow earth.
……………
Zhao Dongchuan rode his bicycle, wandering through the crisscrossing ravines and valleys, where the green color was gradually becoming denser. Corn, sorghum, millet, sunflowers... most of the tall crops had grown more than halfway.
Leguminous crops were blooming: snow-white soybean flowers, golden vine bean flowers, pink kidney bean flowers... blooming dazzlingly among the green leaves.
Zhao Dongchuan felt refreshed. He had been staying in Shuangshui Village, having to go to work every day, otherwise he wouldn't get rations. And even if he had money and food, he couldn't keep taking it out; over time, it would certainly raise suspicion.
Now that he was transferred to work at the Cultural Center, he had relative freedom, so he could consider his next plan. Making money was not the most important thing at the moment; his salary from the Cultural Center was enough for him to live alone.
The current focus was on how to trigger system tasks as much as possible. He needed to make some attempts regarding this. Since he had come here, it must be related to the plot.
If it was related to the plot, then interacting with plot characters would likely trigger tasks. However, he had previously interacted with Shaoping, Shaoan, and Runye, but the system had never responded.
Zhao Dongchuan couldn't figure it out. Could it really be random? Such a casual system???
Wait, the 'Passerby A' system, could it be that he was on the wrong track, and tasks were actually triggered by passersby? Or less important supporting characters? Thinking of Tian Er and Lanhua, who had triggered tasks, Zhao Dongchuan felt like he had a glimmer of direction.
He would try to interact with supporting characters more first, to find a pattern. It absolutely couldn't be triggered by passersby; that would be even worse. There were only a few main characters, but countless 'Passerby A's. Was he supposed to interact with every single person???
Zhao Dongchuan rode his bicycle, deep in thought, and time passed quickly.
Arriving in the county town, Zhao Dongchuan found a state-run restaurant, ate lunch, and thought about the few things he needed to do.
After eating, he went to the County First Middle School and paid twenty yuan for Sun Shaoping's Class B meal expenses at the school cafeteria's large stove.
This would greatly improve Shaoping's meals, preventing him from being dizzy with hunger. If he gave the money directly, Shaoping would definitely refuse.
This was all he could help with for now. For Sun Shaoping, the male protagonist of "ordinary world," Zhao Dongchuan still wanted to help as much as possible.
His father, Sun Yuhou, had given him a yellow steamed bun, and now that Zhao Dongchuan had a golden finger, he naturally wouldn't be stingy.
He just hoped that Shaoping wouldn't be a simp and fawn over Hao Hongmei, wasting his good intentions.
Leaving the county high school, Zhao Dongchuan went to the County Cultural Center again, wanting to find Du Lili, Runye's classmate, to express his gratitude. After all, it was thanks to her that he was able to submit his work successfully.
