Chapter 1059 [1058] Heroines of the Republic of China 32 (5000+)

In this era, the school hours in the Northeast are different from those in the South. There are no precise winter and summer vacations. What's more, their Baijiawan Commune Primary School itself starts late and only starts after May Day. Why can't it have holidays in August or September?

That was the busy farming season here.

But within a few days of class, the weather started to get cold, so after discussion with the commune leaders, they decided to continue classes until the commune’s cat winter.

An Yi also thinks this is more reasonable. After all, in the middle of winter, when the temperature is tens of degrees below zero and it is difficult to run out to go to class, how do you get firewood for heating? It’s almost as good as even the winter. If you have to go to class all winter, not only the children will suffer, but also the adults.

It also suffers, so the best way is to take classes from March to the end of October every year, and have holidays the rest of the time.

It is equivalent to four months of 11, 12, 1, and 2 months, the cat has to winter at home.

As soon as this resolution was proposed, not only did the teacher agree, the children were happy, and even the parents thought it was reasonable.

After the principal and director made the decision, Anyi no longer had to worry about when the holiday would be.

Later, when the two sisters came back, she learned that not only their commune made this decision, but in fact the entire three northeastern provinces were almost at this time. Even if there were differences, it was determined by the length of winter. Anyway, the annual teaching tasks

Just leave it there and you're done.

"That means you will also be officially on holiday from November until the end of February next year?"

Qiuxia nodded, "That's about right."

As An Yi thought about it, her eyes started to shine: "That's great. If this is really the case, you can directly apply to enter the third grade of junior high school next semester."

It is equivalent to them taking the first and second semesters at the same time, so the four months of winter vacation are particularly important. If you grasp these four months well, it will not be difficult to take the skipping exam at the beginning of school.

The two sisters considered that after graduating from elementary school in four months, the knowledge points in junior high school were difficult. They felt that An Yi was not joking with them. In order to save money and time, they gritted their teeth and nodded in agreement. After all, everyone knew well that the school teachers had

The level is not as good as their sister!

According to this progress, wouldn't it be possible to study the contents of the fourth grade of junior high school during the winter vacation next year?

The more I think about it, the more I feel that I need to work harder, but whether I can complete this task depends on the difficulty of the operation.

After all, the more knowledge you gain in the future, the more knowledge you will gain, and no one dares to make too many guarantees.

"I have already registered for the qualification certificate exam,"

The exams in this era are not as troublesome as those in later generations. Even for public teachers, they have to be divided into written examinations and interviews. Everyone's situation is different. After all, the cultural gap in this era is really too big. It depends on what you apply for.

Which category, if you apply for junior level, it will definitely be relatively difficult. If you go up to advanced level, the difficulty you face will also be greatly increased.

She applied in the name of Baijiawan Commune Primary School, and the letters of recommendation and introduction were also from the commune and the primary school. She registered in early June, took a written test in July, and had an interview in August. If everything went well, she would be able to get her certificate in October.

, as long as she has this advanced qualification certificate, it will be feasible for her to teach high school in the future.

What she chose was Chinese, which is what we will call senior professional titles in Chinese in later generations.

The so-called junior high school and advanced level correspond to elementary school, junior high school and high school, and the higher education level requires special education, which is the treatment of university teachers.

Of course, as a high school teacher, she can also teach in some technical schools, technical secondary schools, junior colleges, and intermediate professional titles. Only universities require special qualification certificates.

And you must have a college diploma. You want to teach college students without a college diploma? Isn’t that a joke?

In this era, there was no such thing as academic qualifications, because many people were in the upper half of school due to war, so they were collectively referred to as degrees.

For example, if you have finished elementary school, that is the level of elementary school education. If you only went to the second grade of junior high school, that is also considered the level of junior high school education. Although she does not have a high school diploma, she said that she went to high school. That is what people promote to the outside world.

degree.

The current minimum requirement is that those who teach elementary school must have a junior high school education, and those who teach junior high school must have a high school education. For someone like her who teaches elementary school in a high school, she is overqualified because there is still a shortage of teachers.

"You two can try to get the junior qualification certificate, just think of it as training. With this qualification certificate, even if you don't go to high school or become a teacher in the future, when you get to the unit where you work, people will look up to you."

Caihua couldn't believe it: "Can we really take the exam?"

"Okay, but after I figure out the routine, it won't be too late to take the exam again next year or the year after."

"Then..., if we really pass the exam, can we become teachers?"

An Yi smiled and said: "In principle, that's the case, but being a teacher is not that simple, and you have to do a lot of homework. You will know the details from the information I prepared for you."

The two sisters immediately stood in awe: "Sister A is right, teaching and educating people is not something everyone can do."

The exam needed to be taken in the county seat, so she chose a class with Teacher Song Gang a week in advance. In other words, for a few days, she took Chinese classes for a whole morning. Other teachers thought that there was nothing wrong with private teachers.

Okay, why do you have to take the exam?

The travel expenses, accommodation fees, and registration fees from home to the county town cost almost 20,000 to 30,000 yuan. For them, whose monthly salary is only 120,000 yuan, the price is too high, too expensive, so this year only Anyi

Apply alone.

That being said, if you pass the public examination, the salary will also rise with the tide. An Yi feels that it is not a matter of money, but that they don’t know whether they can pass the examination. They plan to wait and see. For example, if An Yi takes the examination this year, the questions will be difficult.

Shouldn’t the ease and process be shared with them?

They don't fight unprepared battles. If you want to take the exam, you must pass it, otherwise money and time will be wasted.

It’s right to think so. How many people are as confident as An Yi? What’s more, she applied for a senior professional title right from the start.

Others didn't know that she was taking the advanced exam, so they naturally thought it was a junior exam, and she didn't think about explaining this.

Two days before the exam, Zhang Li offered to help her take care of the child for two days, but An Yi declined. She would take care of the child herself. At worst, she would put it in a space for her to crawl around and play. She specially set up a safety fence so that she could not escape.

In the distance, if you cry, no one will hear you. From the fence, you can just see the chickens, ducks, geese, pigs and cows in the distance. These are very attractive for her to follow. The exam time is 90 minutes, and it will be over in a short time.

Because the exam was at eight in the morning, she needed to go to the county town one day in advance, bringing with her letters of introduction and recommendation letters and exam-related admission information. An Yi was taken to the town by the commune’s ox cart, and then took a passing ox cart to Tongtong Bus

On the main road, and then bumping into the county town, this alone took me from morning to two or three in the afternoon.

When I arrived at the county seat, I immediately followed the address on the admission ticket, looked at the examination room, and entered the space directly at a nearby park.

If you have space, you will definitely not stay in a guest house. Everything in the space is your own, the place is big, you can walk your kids as much as you want, and you have plenty of time.

Looking at the piles of chicken, duck and goose eggs in the corner of the space, she rolled her eyes, and while the girl was sleeping, she marinated a large pot of tea eggs in an iron pot. The eggs and tea leaves all came from space. Not only did they grow bigger

, the boiled eggs also have a tea aroma, which is so delicious.

Now everyone can still trade freely with money, and bills have not yet been officially circulated. It will still take a few years.

Although one set of coins will no longer be usable around May next year, you can use one set of coins to exchange for two sets of coins.

According to the exchange rate of 10,000 yuan = 1 yuan, it is enough to show how high the expansion rate is.

In other words, one cent is equivalent to the face value of one thousand yuan.

One set stopped circulating in May of 1955, and the second set was released in March of the same year, which means that the parallel time was only two months.

Just look at the interest rate and you will know that ten thousand to one is very arrogant!

So how to sell tea eggs?

One thousand yuan for two is not a bargain, because her eggs are not only big, but also come from space, and you will never forget them after eating them. So after thinking about it again and again, she decided to sell them this way.

If the eggs are not marinated, they will be charged four thousand yuan.

A set of coins has collection value. Since she plans to open it, she has to pick a few complete sets. Then she has to let the coins rotate and exchange the excess parts when they need to be exchanged.

Three duck eggs cost one thousand yuan, and two goose eggs.

Duck eggs are generally used for pickling. Her pickled duck eggs are particularly good and dripping with oil. The salted duck eggs sell for 1,000 yuan each.

The small county town in the 1950s was very simple, with low-slung houses and period-style clothing. There were not a few cyclists on the streets. The craze for public-private partnership had just arrived, and colored paper and red banners were advertised everywhere.

Accustomed to the consequences of "speculation", she did not dare to shout loudly. Instead, she carefully carried a basket on the street. When she saw that people were well-dressed, she would go up and ask: "Auntie, do you want eggs or duck eggs?"

And goose eggs? They are all fresh and very big. Let’s see?”

If someone wants to ask for it, he will stop and follow her to the corner. Compared with her cautiousness, he seems to be more upright. Not only does he straighten his back, but he also looks at her in confusion: "Sister, why are you so sneaky?"

?Could it be that the egg came from something wrong?"

"Oh, aunt, what are you talking about? I raised this by myself. Isn't this my first time in the city? I'm afraid that people won't let me sell it."

"Oh, you're overthinking it. If you don't steal or rob, why aren't you allowed to sell it? Okay, okay, let me ask you, how do you want to sell it?"

"Well... aunt, if you don't come back, you don't know the market. How about you give it to me?"

When the lady heard this, her eyes lit up, "Okay, I won't cheat you. If we buy them normally, eggs cost one thousand yuan for five..."

"Five? Buy eggs as big as hers?" An Yi frowned at that time: "No, the price is too low, I won't sell it."

"Hey, why don't you let me finish your words? You said I bought it normally. How can I buy it normally with a big guy like you? We are all real people and don't do things like cheating, but we also

There can’t be too much difference, so you have to give at least four. If four don’t sell, I won’t buy them either.”

Judging from what Auntie means, she seems to like her eggs very much. They cost four for one thousand yuan. They should have made a profit. She didn't ask about how many eggs were sold by normal supply and marketing cooperatives. Maybe they sold them.

Five or six, this is possible, but the key is, can you buy it?

In an era when supplies are in short supply, it is not something you can buy if you have money. In many cases, you may not be able to buy it even with money. You may even buy leftovers from others and package them as scraps, like hers.

The eggs are fresh, big, beautiful and clean, with no trace of chicken droppings on them. They are white and red, and look very rare. Will she lose money if she sells four of them?

Sure enough, when she hesitated here, the aunt thought she was going too far and said she didn't know. In fact, she didn't know much about the market here?

She gritted her teeth, as if she had made some important decision, "Three, no more, I won't buy any more."

Now An Yi smiled: "Auntie, how much can you want?"

"Just...ten thousand yuan. I don't have any more. However, if you can give me three more, I will take you to the yard where we live. Many people should buy it, over there at the supply and marketing cooperative."
