Reborn in the 70s, doing whatever it takes to make money

"Brother Xu, don't you welcome me?"

The captain asked pretending to be unhappy.

"Wherever, fast forward, fast forward."

Father Xu invited the captain into the house.

The captain took a few steps forward and asked, "Do you believe what Teacher Xu Qing just said?"

Xu's father said: "Oh, you are fooling me. Yesterday, Qing girl went to the county town. She somehow bought some discarded flashlights from the county town's waste recycling station, and claimed that she would repair them. , it’s only been a day, and she’s already claiming that it’s been repaired, Captain, who can believe this?”

The captain paused and his eyes fell on the flashlight in Xu Qing's hand. He couldn't help but become interested and said, "Teacher Xu Qing, you said you repaired the flashlight yourself?"

"Ah."

Xu Qing nodded affirmatively.

Seeing Xu Qing nodding, Xu's father couldn't help but feel anxious. He was afraid that Xu Qing would leave a bad impression on the captain. After all, people with bad conduct were not suitable to be teachers.

"How can you kid lie in front of the captain?" Xu's father said angrily.

"Dad, I didn't lie."

Xu Qing said a little depressed.

Why doesn't anyone believe what she says?

Isn't it just to repair a flashlight? It's not to build an atomic bomb.

Seeing that Xu Qing was still tough-talking, Xu's father smiled awkwardly at the captain and said, "Captain, I'm telling you this is a joke. This girl Qing'er has been spoiled by me."

Xu Qing was immediately unhappy after hearing this.

Today she had to prove that she wasn't lying.

When she was about to speak, Xu's mother hurriedly came over, took Xu Qing's hand, and whispered: "You girl, you don't care about the situation when you lie. What the captain values ​​most is a person's character. If you give He left a bad impression, and I wonder if you still want to be a teacher."

Xu Qing said depressedly: "Mom, I didn't lie. I really fixed it. If you don't believe me, you can open it and try it yourself."

With that said, she put the flashlight in front of Xu's mother.

"You girl are really determined not to give up until you reach the Yellow River."

Xu's mother shook her head and took the flashlight at Xu Qing's insistence.

"Mom, press this switch hard and the flashlight will turn on." Xu Qing taught Xu's mother how to use the flashlight.

Upon seeing this, the captain looked over with interest.

Teacher Xu Qing looked confident, could it really be repaired?

The captain couldn't help but look forward to it.

Xu's mother also had a look of expectation in her heart. Under Xu Qing's guidance, she pressed the switch button hard.

one second.

two seconds.

three seconds.

Nothing happened.

The expectation that appeared in Xu's mother's heart suddenly disappeared.

The captain also shook his head.

Teacher Xu Qing is still a child after all.

The captain smiled awkwardly.

He was actually looking forward to it just now.

Really, really...

The second brother, second sister-in-law, third brother and third sister-in-law, as well as the rest of the old Xu family, all showed expressions that showed no surprise.

Xu Qing's expression was also stagnant.

what happened?

She took the flashlight from Xu's mother, checked it once, and slapped her forehead suddenly, wondering how she had forgotten about it.

Forgot to install the battery.

Because the batteries she bought were limited, and there were five repaired flashlights in total, there were no batteries in this flashlight at all.

"I forgot to install the battery. Please wait for me. I will go back to the house to get the battery."

But no one believed her at this time.

Everyone shook their heads.

Xu Qing quickly returned to the house, took the battery, quickly put it in, and then walked out.

Just as everyone turned their backs, a dazzling white light shot from behind.

"This is……"

Everyone's movements are frozen.

Then a look of astonishment appeared on his face.

then.

Everyone turned around slowly.

I saw the flashlight in Xu Qing's hand really lit up, releasing a dazzling white light.

This light is really bright!

This thought couldn't help but appear in everyone's mind.

The captain's body trembled suddenly and he was the first to react, staring at Xu Qing with eyes full of disbelief.

"Xu, Teacher Xu Qing, you, did you really fix it?"

Xu Qing looked at the shocked expression on the captain's face, smiled proudly, and said: "Captain, seeing is believing, don't you still believe it now?"

"Believe, I believe!"

The captain replied subconsciously.

Immediately, he asked again: "Teacher Xu Qing, how did you do it?"

If the flashlight was originally broken, he couldn't understand that Xu Qing, a girl, shouldn't be able to repair it even if she went to school for several years.

Before Xu Qing could speak, Xu's father was shocked, reacted, and said excitedly: "Captain, I know."

Seeing the captain looking at him, Xu's father said quickly: "Girl Qing bought books on basic mechanical maintenance from the scrap toll station yesterday. I guess she must have learned from books."

Mechanical maintenance books?

Self taught?

The captain's eyes lit up.

Xu Qing nodded cooperatively and said, "Yes, I learned it all in books."

"Genius, Teacher Xu Qing, you are a genius."

The captain looked at Xu Qing as if he had discovered a treasure.

"Qing'er, how many have you repaired in total?"

Xu's mother also had a smile on her face, and she suddenly asked.

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Xu Qing.

There should be only one.

It's an unexpected surprise to be able to fix one.

When everyone was thinking this, they saw Xu Qing turning back into the house.

see.

Everyone's heart could not help but beat fast.

Is it...

more than one?

two?

or three?

Under nervous gazes, Xu Qing walked out of the room. In addition to four flashlights, there were two small wall clocks in her hands.

Suddenly it became dead silence.

"Tick tock tick tock..."

The ticking sound of the second hand was clearly heard by everyone present.

The captain's eyes widened and he stared at the wall clock in Xu Qing's hand. The sound came from this wall clock.

The sun is westward.

It was getting dark.

But the captain still saw clearly the slowly moving second hand.

"Oh my god, Qing'er, you, you, you can't fix the wall clock, right?"

Xu's mother's exaggerated cry brought everyone out of shock.

Everyone's bodies trembled.

next moment.

The exclamations rose and fell from each other.

"Little sister, I, I, I am not dazzled!"

"Four flashlights, two wall clocks, haha, our old Xu family is going to be prosperous."

"I never thought that I would see the day when our old Xu family would have electrical appliances in my lifetime."

"Flashlight, wall clock, our old Xu family is the first one in Hongqi Village!"

"..."

Everyone in the old Xu family, from Xu's father and Xu's mother to Sanmao, were excited and blushing.

The captain stared at the wall clock in Xu Qing's hand, his eyes burning, and he couldn't help but said: "Teacher Xu Qing, can you give me one wall clock? No, can you sell me one?"
