The best survival in troubled times
Chapter 12 Exchange of books
In the end, Pearl couldn't use her tattered book and replaced it with several books.
Unexpectedly, the book was the cheapest one and there were more than a dozen copies. Pearl felt her head buzzing when she looked at these dozen books?
As soon as Pearl finished changing her books, the platform closed automatically. Pearl was dumbfounded and her efforts for two days were in vain.
Pearl was lying on the kang and was hopeless. She didn't want to say anything now. She saw the large pile of books next to her eyes and closed her eyes instantly.
"Host, if you finish reading all these books, your laziness points should be able to be exchanged for food next time. Otherwise, even if it is turned on next time, you will still be unable to exchange for anything but books."
Pearl took a deep breath, thinking that if this system were a real person, she would tear it into pieces now.
Isn't this just playing with yourself? He had worked so hard to read the books for so long, so he might as well get himself another pile.
"You'd better work hard. After all, there will be an exam in two months. If you pass it, there may be a way for this village to survive.
If you don't do well in the exam, everyone will have to pack up and go their separate ways.
Think carefully about whether you want to escape or live a good life here. If you want to live a good life, work hard and study hard.
Let this pass pass. If you don’t want to study or work hard after it passes, that’s fine. "
When Pearl heard this, her eyes widened and she looked into the sky.
"You are just kidding me. Can I save the people in this village? It's hard for me to survive, and I'm almost starving now. Besides, even if I pass the exam, how can I save them?"
"There should be food in the county and we can distribute some relief food to everyone. Besides, if we dig wells, wouldn't you be able to save some seedlings by digging more wells?"
"What you mean is that I should study hard and ask the county master to build two wells for us. Then don't even think about it. I can't pass the exam and I can't study well. I'm so tired after reading a book. It only took two days to recover. Even if I don't eat or sleep for two months, I won't be able to do it."
Pearl paused for a long time before speaking slowly.
"Have you ever thought about it, what if I finish my studies? Isn't it good that I am living like this?
I asked my father to go to the village chief to organize an organization to dig a well now. If we can save some seedlings, one tree at a time, if not, everyone will just run away. Anyway, if the sky collapses, there will still be tall people holding it up, so that’s okay. No need for me. "
The system is completely powerless now. This host is like a stone in a latrine, smelly and hard, no matter what you say, it won't work.
"You should work hard. After you read a book, I will reward you with a meat bun every day. If you think it works, you can read it. If it doesn't, you can continue to lie down and wait for death.
Anyway, I can find another host after you die, so I can just continue wandering like this.
If you change to another speed, maybe he will be more obedient than you. Look at you, if I were a boy instead.
He has already listened to me and studied well. No wonder I want another girl who can also listen to me and study well. "
"Then go and change. Hurry up and don't let me see you again."
"Do you think I don't want to? But I can't change you if you're not dead."
When Pearl heard this, her little teeth sneered, and she thought to herself that she has to wait for me to die, and I will live well, even if you can't change it.
"I really have no choice. My maximum limit is that you read a book every day. I can give you some noodles, but they can only be thick noodles and not white noodles.
Don't mention those demands again. Just figure it out yourself. After reading a book, you go to the space to get it yourself. How many books you read will mean how many pages you have every day. It’s up to you. "
The system didn't say a word. Pearl closed her eyes and thought that it would be good to have some noodles every day.
From that day on, Pearl would either read in the house or sit on a small stool in the yard and read.
The boys are all quiet at home, and the girls walk back and forth around Pearl when they have time.
Pearl looked at their little eyes and thought to herself, don't let me teach you how to write. I can't even hold a pen well now.
When Pearl saw them, it was as if she couldn't see them. If they kept looking at Pearl, they would go back to the room.
The third daughter-in-law secretly spat when she saw this, but she didn't dare to say anything.
Wait until night to find the third child.
"The head of the house, please talk to my little sister and ask him to teach our child how to read two characters. Our child cannot delay her learning."
"You have to wait a few days, don't you think you are busy now? If my little sister can really pass the exam, our family will be really promising. We had a fourth child before, and now we have a younger sister.
The younger sister has been smarter than the senior four since she was a child, so she might actually be able to pass the exam. "
When Wang Ping's wife heard this, her eyes almost rolled out of her sockets, and she couldn't figure out whether the man was poisoned.
Normally, anything you say is fine, but as soon as you talk about studying, you're guaranteed to be doomed.
The village chief heard that Zhenzhu was studying and went to the yard to see that there was no one else in the yard. There were only four and five cows making grass and feeding chickens and pigs.
"Pearl, are you really going to take the exam?"
Pearl heard the voice and looked up to see that it was her uncle, who I heard was also the village chief.
"Yeah, I think I should give it a try. This opportunity is very good. I don't need anything and there are no requirements. I will ask for more in the future."
The village chief nodded when he heard this.
"Then you should study hard and don't let your father and mother down. Your family is trying to tighten their belts to support you."
Pearl nodded when she heard this.
"Uncle, don't worry, I know what's going on."
Village Chief Wang felt uneasy when he heard this.
What can I worry about? In the past two years, your father and mother have not known about it, and I haven’t known about it? After just a few days of school, you defeated all the students in the school. Did you defeat the invincible opponent in the school?
"I heard Brother Qing say that you asked the school teacher to punish you."
Pearl curled her lips when she heard this. This brother Qing was the uncle's grandson who was also in the school. He heard that his studies were much better than his own, but he didn't expect that he was still a long-tongued person.
"If we fight, we'll fight. So what can we do? Just punish me sir. Can he still refuse to let me go back? Besides, he didn't fire me."
"Go back and tell your grandson that even if he studies well, so what, doesn't he fail the exam?"
The village chief was angry when he heard this.
"You little girl, I'm here to care about you. Why are you talking to me?"
"This is my father, and my mother knows what your grandson is talking about. Besides, even Brother Qing doesn't act like a man."
"You little brat, if you do this again, I will beat you up. Do you believe it? I came to see you out of kindness, but you are talking like this."
When Pearl heard the village chief's words, she lowered her head and then raised her head.
