Early the next morning, Jiang Xiaobai and Liu Aiguo arrived at the county seat.

After getting off the bus at the county seat, Liu Aiguo looked at Jiang Xiaobai curiously and asked, "Brother Xiaobai, where should we find review materials?"

He knew all about Jiang Xiaobai's connections and acquaintances in the county, except for Song Weiguo and Wang Laoer.

But Song Weiguo said yesterday that there were no review materials, and the county admissions office also said that there were no review materials, so where else could I look for them.

"Go, ask someone where there is a collection station for collecting scraps. I'll just hang around here, and you'll be waiting for me here when you come back." Jiang Xiaobai said. The most unaccustomed thing about this era is not having a mobile phone.

If this were to happen in the future, just contact me directly by phone.

"When you go out, you basically rely on walking, and when you communicate, you basically rely on shouting," is a realistic portrayal of this era. Jiang Xiaobai came to Jianhua Village to join the queue, but has not been in contact with his family at all.

"Okay, Brother Xiaobai." Liu Aiguo turned around and went to find someone to inquire. Jiang Xiaobai was wandering around. He remembered that there should be some small restaurants by this time.

It's just that there are no signs, and they are all in some alleys, so you can't find them unless you are an acquaintance or someone can guide you.

Jiang Xiaobai wandered around the alleys, planning to find a small private restaurant for lunch. Wang Chao was in charge of canned food production in the village and had not returned to the city. Jiang Xiaobai was too embarrassed to go to someone's house for dinner.

Of course, Jiang Xiaobai was mainly curious, wanting to see if there was a private restaurant and if anyone else besides himself had changed.

As for lunch, you can go to the food station to get food stamps in exchange for steamed buns or steamed buns.

It's almost noon, and there are a lot of people coming and going in the alley, and many people are going home after get off work.

While Jiang Xiaobai was wandering around like a headless fly, a man walking beside Jiang Xiaobai called "Old Zhang" and pushed open the door and walked into a small room with a front door.

Jiang Xiaobai glanced casually and saw several tables placed in the room.

Jiang Xiaobai felt happy and was about to give up, but he didn't expect to find him.

Jiang Xiaobai followed the man and opened the door and walked into the house.

The man who came in just now and the man in an apron named Lao Zhang were a little confused when they saw Jiang Xiaobai walk in. Lao Zhang asked with some confusion: "Who are you?"

"I'm an educated youth. I came to the city to do some errands. Isn't it noon? I wanted to find a place to eat. Just now this big brother opened the door and walked in. I glanced at it and walked in. It looked like a restaurant." Jiang Xiaobai explained.

"Oh, let's make it quickly. What do you want to eat? My small restaurant is simple and doesn't have many dishes. I'm sorry."

Lao Zhang smiled and asked Jiang Xiaobai to sit down at the table. He opened the restaurant in such a remote place and did not hang a plaque because he was afraid of something happening.

But I am not a hermit. I don't accept strangers. To put it bluntly, isn't it just for money? If there are customers coming to the door, there is no reason to extrapolate.

"It's okay. I'm not picky about food. I have a companion. I'll pick him up later. This is 2 yuan. Brother, just watch and do it."

Jiang Xiaobai took out the money from his pocket and put it on the table without ordering. In fact, it was just the same as what a restaurant owner would cook at this time, and it was useless to order.

"Okay, someone brought a hare this morning. I'll stew the leftover chicken with mushrooms for you, stir-fry some meat, shredded potatoes, and fill it with rice."

Lao Zhang looked at the two dollars placed on the table, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he quickly reported the name of the dish. In fact, those who could go out to eat at this time were basically not short of money.

So Lao Zhang usually prepares some meat or something.

"Young student, which commune are you an educated youth from? What are you doing in the county?" The man who just opened the door and walked in chatted with Jiang Xiaobai at the table next to him.

"I am an educated youth from the Jianhua Brigade of Shangma Commune. Isn't the college entrance examination resumed? I came to the city to find review materials..."

I heard that Jiang Xiaobai came to the county to look for review materials to prepare for the college entrance examination. The man sighed: "It's hard to find review materials now. There hasn't been a college entrance examination in 10 years, and many review materials have been lost..."

"That's right, the county admissions office doesn't have any information, so you can't take the exam naked." Jiang Xiaobai said, although he only took the college entrance examination four years ago in his previous life, the test now is completely different from the one in later generations. He also

Need to review.

"Naked exam, this word is used creatively," the middle-aged man's eyes lit up and he looked at Jiang Xiaobai and said.

"Haha," Jiang Xiaobai didn't say much. He was already paying attention, but some words from later generations would still pop out of his mouth inadvertently.

The two chatted for a while, and then Jiang Xiaobai went out to pick up Liu Aiguo.

"Brother Xiaobai, I found out that there is a scrap collection station in the county. It is on the east side of the county. Follow this road to the end and you will see it when you turn the corner." Liu Aiguo said and was about to take Jiang Xiaobai there.

Jiang Xiaobai quickly stopped him, "Go and eat first, and then go after eating."

"Eat, it's almost noon. Brother Xiaobai, I'll go to the food station to exchange for steamed buns and steamed buns." Liu Aiguo asked Jiang Xiaobai to say it. Then he remembered that it was already noon and he was hungry. He had just been thinking about reviewing the materials.

"No, you come with me." Jiang Xiaobai waved his hand and led Liu Aiguo towards the small restaurant.

Liu Aiguo hesitated several times along the way. This was not the way to Old Man Wang's house. Could it be that Brother Xiaobai had relatives in the county town and hadn't he heard of it?

Jiang Xiaobai opened the door and walked in with curious Liu Aiguo.

"I'm back. The shredded potatoes and fried meat are ready. I'll serve the rice for you. You guys eat first. The chicken stewed with mushrooms will be ready soon." Lao Zhang heard the voice and walked out of the kitchen. He saw Jiang Xiaobai and greeted him with a smile.

Arrive, after saying that, we started to work.

"Brother Xiaobai, is this a relative of yours?" Liu Aiguo asked in a low voice with some confusion.

Jiang Xiaobai waved his hand and said, "No, I always opened a small restaurant. I just met him."

"Small restaurant, Brother Xiaobai, how did you find it? Someone really opened a restaurant." Liu Aiguo looked surprised.

The two of them had a full meal, not to mention that this small restaurant tasted good.

After eating, Liu Aiguo and Jiang Xiaobai stopped at the entrance of a scrap collection station in the east of the county.

"This should be it." Liu Aiguo said.

Jiang Xiaobai looked at the scrap collection station in front of him. There were several dilapidated adobe houses, and there was a wooden sign with "Zhangxuan County Scrap Collection Station" written in big black characters.

There are some wooden boards and worn-out white porcelain pots scattered around in the yard. In fact, there are very few waste products at this time.

People even keep their clothes "new for three years, old for three years, and mended for another three years," not to mention other things.
