Chapter 147

After arriving at Ginkgo Village, Yao Shu finally understood.

A place could be so impoverished.

How impoverished?

Currently, not a single place in the entire Eastern Kingdom lacks electricity.

But back then, Ginkgo Village was one of the last villages nationwide to get electricity!

Among the four roommates who came to Ginkgo Village together.

Two chose to leave after persisting for half a year.

The remaining one also left after persisting for another half year.

Yao Shu is the sole survivor.

And the only one who has remained steadfast until now.

As of this year, she has been teaching in Ginkgo Village for over four years.

From graduating university at twenty-two to being twenty-six now.

Being twenty-six and unmarried is perfectly normal in big cities.

But in second, third, and fourth-tier cities, one has basically already entered the ranks of leftover women.

Is she not excellent? Of course, she is excellent.

Is she not beautiful? She is the most beautiful female teacher recognized by all of Ginkgo Village.

But there is nothing to be done.

Yao Shu serves as a subject teacher at the Ginkgo Village Rural Primary School.

This primary school has a total of seven teachers, plus one principal, who is also the eighth subject teacher.

The children from this village and neighboring villages are the school's students.

The conditions at Ginkgo Village Primary School are extremely harsh.

The classrooms where students attend lessons are drafty.

The local climate is warm, the so-called spring-like all year round, which originally wouldn't have mattered.

But at the beginning of the year before last, the global climate became bizarre, and heavy snow actually fell in the south, causing a major snow disaster.

That year, winter in Yunnan Province was exceptionally cold.

In the dead of winter, the children huddled in the classroom; the teachers had the children squeeze together and even lit a stove.

Later, one day, the window glass broke for some unknown reason.

They could only patch it up with paper and plastic sheeting.

The children's hands and feet were all frostbitten, shivering.

After that, Yao Shu thought this was not a solution.

The villagers did not have that line of thinking.

She, a top student, always had ideas.

Doesn't the village produce local specialties?

This could originally make money.

But alas, Ginkgo Village is very far from the nearest county town, Tengchong County.

Plus, the infrastructure is backward; there isn't even a proper road.

This caused Ginkgo Village to be extremely isolated; while they have local specialties, taking them to the county town to sell is very unrealistic.

And the e-commerce platform gave Yao Shu an idea.

After that, Yao Shu started becoming an online livestream sales host.

She wanted to find some livestream sales hosts to help promote Ginkgo Village's specialties.

To generate income for the village.

This way, next year they could repair the village primary school.

But.

She contacted many hosts.

At first, when they heard it was promoting goods for a poverty-stricken village, none of them objected.

But when they learned that Ginkgo Village's local specialties were all from individual small-scale farmers, they all refused one by one.

The reason is very simple.

Livestream sales hosts also need to make a profit.

With individual small-scale farmers, the sales volume is destined to be impossible to be very large.

And with insufficient volume, it is very difficult for livestream sales hosts to obtain significant profits.

This is equivalent to spending time without much return.

Thus, Yao Shu met with obstacles everywhere.

Until she saw that 【Si Shiya's Legal Education Little House】 livestream room.

This "host Si Shiya" actually said she was willing to promote goods for poverty-stricken villages.

So, that is how she came to send the message.

And now, this phone call in the early morning has made Yao Shu very happy.

After all, no matter what, finally, someone is willing to help.

Even if it can no longer be that host herself.

But still, as the saying goes, having something is better than having nothing.

Yao Shu really does not want to see the children's frostbitten hands and feet again this winter.

The old party secretary put on his coat and opened the door for Teacher Yao Shu.

"Teacher Yao? It's so late, what's the matter?" The old party secretary, Chen Liu, had served as the party secretary of Ginkgo Village for half his life.

Yao Shu briefly explained the situation to the old party secretary.

Hearing this, Chen Laoyezi beamed with joy and even became somewhat flustered.

"Oh my, oh my, Teacher Yao, this is a huge help to Ginkgo Village!" The old party secretary chattered on, "Here's what we'll do: you just go pick up that Mr. Streamer; I'll go notify every household right now!"

"When that Mr. arrives tomorrow, we will certainly be fully prepared and do our utmost to welcome this kind Mr.!"

With that settled.

Yao Shu set off directly, walking under the moonlight, riding in a three-wheeled vehicle driven by a villager toward the township bus station.

She had to depart now to arrive at the township bus station before dawn and pick up that "Mr. Ning."

Thus, the old party secretary, Chen Liu, leaning on a cane, began knocking on doors one by one.

The villagers, woken in the early morning upon hearing this news.

Were all suddenly wide awake, completely excited.

Two years ago, Teacher Yao had proposed the suggestion of inviting a streamer to help sell goods and generate income for the village.

It was truly an excellent idea.

But alas, no sales streamer was willing to help.

Now, two years later, the villagers of Ginkgo Village had long since given up hope.

Who would have thought that tonight, such wonderful news would finally arrive.

The villagers, unable to sleep, all gathered in the courtyard of the old party secretary Chen Liu's house for a meeting.

The old party secretary's arrangements were orderly and well-organized.

For tomorrow, who would do what was all arranged.

Checking the time, it was already nearly five in the morning.

The villagers dispersed, each going off to prepare.

And at this moment.

Still in Tengchong County.

Ning Chen, sleeping inside the RV.

Suddenly, for some unknown reason.

His eyelids twitched a few times.

Left eye twitches for wealth, right eye twitches for disaster.

It was his right eyelid that had twitched a few times.

Then, it kept twitching.
