Chapter 28 Advanced Electrical Maintenance Technology

Perhaps out of shyness, after making Chen Can's bed, Zheng Juan immediately blew out the oil lamp as soon as Chen Can got on the bed, leaving only the silent night in the room.

Lying on the warm fire bed, Chen Can felt a fire burning in his heart.

Chen Can and Zheng Juan, separated by a little baby,

However, this man still had a bit of shame, and Chen Can could only hear his heavy breathing.

Those random thoughts outside the house just now have turned into giants in thought and dwarfs in action at this moment.

Chen Can sighed deeply, it's hard for this man to take the first step!

I don’t know how long it took, but I heard the steady breathing of two children, who were obviously asleep!

Chen Can felt a little sleepy at this moment in his heart. He turned his head slightly and looked at Zheng Juan's figure across the child.

Perhaps Zheng Juan noticed something and turned her head slightly to look over.

The two looked at each other!

Chen Can looked at those big bright eyes, and the fire in his heart finally ignited his reason. He gently lifted the quilt, stepped over the baby's body, and slowly squeezed towards Zheng Juan.

Zheng Juan was frightened by Chen Can's move and immediately tensed up.

Until a hot body slowly approached her.

A dreamless night!

The next day, Chen Can was gently shaken awake. When he opened his eyes, he saw that it was Zheng Juan.

Her face was like a peach blossom, and her eyes were filled with spring. When she saw Chen Can open his eyes, she quickly glanced to the side, and then spoke in a low voice.

"Get up, it's already dawn, the children will wake up later!"

Chen Can chuckled, gently lifted the quilt, quickly pulled up his half-undressed pants, put on his shoes, and quietly got out of bed.

Looking at Zheng Juan in front of him, Chen Can gently stepped forward and hugged her.

Zheng Juan's body stiffened for two seconds, then completely softened, leaning into Chen Can's arms, motionless.

Chen Can lowered his head and suddenly saw Zheng Juan's little hand. He pulled it up and saw that it was covered with frostbite and small scars of different sizes.

In these years, in order to support her two children, Zheng Juan pushed a small wooden box like her adoptive mother, selling popsicles in winter and candied haws in autumn.

Most of the rest of the time, the family earns a meager income by doing some paper-cutting for the community. It can be said that her hands have gone through countless hardships.

Chen Can looked at Zheng Juan with some distress. He raised his head, gently touched Zheng Juan's head, and finally looked down at her eyes and spoke word by word.

"Don't do that kind of work anymore, I'll take care of you!"

Zheng Juan had a sweet smile on her face, revealing two dimples, and tears flowed out of her eyes involuntarily.

Chen Can wiped her distressedly, and then gently kissed the corner of her eyes. Her tears were salty, and he held her tightly in his arms with his last strength.

Zheng Juan is in such a miserable state. There used to be four people living in a small shabby house. Now that her adoptive mother has passed away, she is left alone with two children, one over three years old and one who is still blind.

Chen Can only hopes that from now on, Zheng Juan's life will get better and better, with less suffering and more warmth in her life.

Chen Can, who integrated all of Zhou Bingkun's life memories, silently made this decision in his heart.

When he meets Zheng Juan, whether it is the benefits of time travel or to complete Zhou Bingkun's mission, Chen Can will give this woman a better future.

Everything starts today!

After leaving Zheng Juan's house, Chen Can kept thinking on the road.

Although I decided to give Zheng Juan a bright future, the most important thing right now is to get money!

It's still 1976, so don't even think about doing business. Even if we wait until 1979, the spring breeze of reform in Gana, Northeast China, won't be able to blow for the time being.

In the Northeast in the 1970s, compared to most other parts of the country, the people here lived a pretty good life!

Heavy industrial areas lead the country in urbanization. Many family members here are workers. They eat national food and receive fixed wages. They have been doing it for ten years. There are almost no major changes in their lives.

In the Guangzi area where Zhou Bingkun lives, although the houses are a little dilapidated, every household is basically a worker, and most of them have urban household registration. Although they are not rich, they are basically not hungry.

Zhou Bingkun's family can be regarded as an upper-middle-level family in this era.

His father, Zhou Zhigang, is an old worker. He has been working in the third line of the university, and his monthly salary is more than 60 yuan. The eldest brother Zhou Bingyi is now a battalion-level instructor of the Corps, and the second sister Zhou Rong is a teacher in a remote area. Both of them have subsidies.

Zhou Bingkun now works in a soy sauce factory. When he joined the factory, his salary was 18 yuan a month. Now after working for several years, his salary has increased to 32 yuan.

It can be said that except for the mother Li Suhua, who has no income, everyone in the Zhou family has a stable income.

But even so, such a big family can't save much money every year in addition to expenses. Part of his father Zhou Zhigang's salary is sent home and part is used to subsidize his children.

In 1972, Luo Shibin and Shui Ziliu, who had given money to Zheng Juan, were each sentenced to prison for speculation. From then on, their monthly living expenses of thirty-five yuan were cut off.

In the past four years, the money given to Zheng Juan every month was Zhou Bingkun's own money.

In order to raise the money every month, Zhou Bingkun sold his mother's family heirloom, a pair of green jadeite, for 1,200 yuan.

It is precisely because of the living expenses of thirty-five yuan per month that Zheng Juan's family was saved. The whole family depends on this thirty-five yuan for living expenses.

It was Zhou Bingkun's selfless dedication in recent years that made Zheng Juan identify this man.

This is what is called good rewards for good people!

But if we want to continue to support Zheng Juan’s family and make her live a better life, this little money is really not enough!

Although prices are low in this era, if you want to live comfortably, you still need money!

What's more, after four years of support, Zhou Bingkun's 1,200 yuan from selling family heirlooms is now very little.

He gave half of his monthly salary to his mother for living expenses, and the rest was spent on eating and drinking with a few people. There was never any money left.

The first thing now is how to make money!

He doesn't have the guts to do business. Those two bastards Luo Shibin and Shui Ziliu are still in prison collecting soap!

Zhou Bingkun's body actually doesn't have much ability. He can't read well and his mind isn't smart either.

The only advantages are probably loyalty, filial piety, principles, and accepting death!

But these advantages cannot be exchanged for money!

Chen Can, who was walking on the road, suddenly stopped. He suddenly remembered that he was a time traveler!

With a thought in his mind, he quickly shouted to the system in his mind!

"Open the redemption mall!"

In an instant, a dense list of products appeared in his mind, with a dazzling array of products, and the exchange prices below were clear at a glance.

Chen Can looked at it attentively, and his heart suddenly became ecstatic!

"One ton of high-quality Northeast rice, the exchange price is 1 time-traveling coin!"

"One ton of high-quality sorghum rice, the exchange price is 1 time-traveling coin!"

"Two tons of red potatoes, the exchange price is one time travel coin!"

"Five hundred kilograms of high-quality liquor, the exchange price is 1 time-travel coin!"

"Two thousand five hundred local eggs, the exchange price is 1 time-travel coin!"

"..."

When Chen Can saw this, he felt even more joyful. There was a dense list of products with countless redemption information. He couldn't even see how many there were.

Chen Can didn't expect that the purchasing power of the time-travel currency was so strong that it could even be exchanged for so many products.

Zhou Bingkun's current monthly salary is only thirty-two cents. According to current prices, one pound of rice is 1,431 cents. With one month's salary, he can buy more than two hundred pounds of rice without eating or drinking.

The most important point is that rice is not something that can be bought openly, and you have to ask for food stamps.

So one time-travel coin can probably be exchanged for his income for a year!

Moreover, many of the products exchanged there are of higher value, such as eggs!

Eggs are in limited supply in the city and are basically unavailable. This is a rare thing!

The most important point is that he now has sixty-seven time-travel coins!

Wait!

Chen Can, who was browsing the products, suddenly thought of a serious question and quickly asked the system in his mind.

"Does this mission world require time travel currency exchange?"

As soon as he thought, the familiar countdown appeared in his mind!

"Countdown to 364 days, 10 hours, 44 minutes and 23 seconds...!"

"This world is a primary mission world. One time travel coin is exchanged for 365 days of mission time. The system has automatically exchanged one time travel coin for the host. Currently, the host has 66 time travel coins left!"

Sure enough, Chen Can felt a little disappointed but also a little happy!

If you use them all to exchange for mission time, your sixty-seven time-travel coins can be exchanged for sixty-seven years of time.

According to the fact that I am twenty-four years old now, plus sixty-seven years, then I cannot live to be ninety-one years old?

In Chen Can's mind, only the word "fuck" was left!
