It was precisely because of this that when they heard Yu Bing’s question, everyone stammered. They wanted to express their agreement, but they didn’t dare to. Only some people said that they would continue working. However, they hoped that Yu Bing could represent the intellectuals and the village chief to arrange some easy work for the candidates. This way, they would have the energy to read books at night.

After everyone expressed their opinions, they realized that Yu Bing didnt speak. Everyone gradually stopped talking.

At this moment, Yu Bing continued, “I understand everyone’s feelings, but I also hope that you guys will treat this matter rationally. The development of the country requires talent. The resumption of the college entrance examination after so many years and the selection of talents is enough to prove this. Don’t worry that you’ll only have this one chance. The most important thing is to adjust your mentality.”

“At the same time, you have to be prepared to continue taking the test if you fail! Everyone, you have to look further ahead. The harvest relationship isn’t only about our own rations, but also about the rations of the entire country. You can’t take leave, but the time for study is too tight, so I can help you guys have as easy a job as possible.”

Yu Yan was also listening below. Her adoptive parents had not found her a suitable job yet and Yao Nian had yet to become a full-time employee, so she was currently living in the countryside in torment. Her reputation had already been tarnished The youths in the dormitory ignored her and she didn’t like to talk to them. However, she had really had enough of being all alone.

Yu Yan had already thought it through. She had to pass to show her adoptive parents that she could return to the city without relying on them!

Yu Yan was preparing to get accepted into a school in Hang City. She even planned to let Yao Nian get in with her. When she graduated, she would lay her cards on the table with her adoptive parents. Then, she would think of a way to work by her biological parents’ side. She would completely cut ties with her adoptive parents in Linshui City so that her parents wouldn’t feel sad when they saw her contacting her adoptive family.

Ever since she found out that the college entrance examination was going to be resumed, Yu Yan had been very proactive. When the young people were discussing this matter, she squeezed in to discuss it as well.

Her plan was to take leave, not only for the week of harvest, but until the end of the exam. Now that she heard Yu Bing reject this choice, she immediately lost it. “Yu Bing, you can slack off and read at any time since you don’t work in the factory, but when it comes to us, we’re not even allowed to take leave? What right do you have?!”

Yu Bing glanced at Yu Yan and said coldly, “You earn your job yourself. The recruitment process for entering the factory is fair and square. If you think it’s easy, you can enter too. Moreover, my studying won’t take up my work time.

You can rest assured about that.”

Yu Yan sneered and said, “Who will believe your words? As long as we sign up, we’re all competitors. I think you want to give us less time to study so that you can take the opportunity to squeeze us out.”

Yu Yan’s reputation wasn’t good among the young people, but Yu Bing was very reputable. Logically speaking, no one should have believed in Yu Yan’s words, but now that Yu Yan had linked Yu Bing’s motive to everyone’s interests, she successfully convinced some people.

“I think Yu Yan makes sense. If we spend less time studying, Yu Bing will have a chance to do better than us. When they accept students, the students are chosen from top to bottom according to their scores. If enough spots are filled, they will stop accepting students.”

“Yu Bing is usually quite kind, but at such a critical moment, it’s really hard to say if she will do such a thing or not. The difference might be the difference between returning to the city or staying in the countryside.”

The person who was persuaded by Yu Yan didn’t dare to say it too loudly, but the words still reached Yu Bing’s ears.

Yu Bing sighed inwardly, but when she saw the trust in most people’s eyes when they looked at her, she felt a trace of warmth in her heart. Hence, she told them the decision she had made previously. “I got a set of high school textbooks, some notes, and a full set of practice books. I specifically brought them over today. If you can’t find any way to buy textbooks, you can discuss how to allocate the time to read the books.”

Yu Bing didn’t like to engage in unfair competition. She believed in her own strength, and she was prepared this time, so she was very confident.

After saying that, Yu Bing opened a large cloth bag she had brought over and took out the set of books she usually used to study. In the past year or so, she had already studied it two to three times..
