Chapter 202: The Matter of the Fallen Soldiers (1)
Tang Ying began to arrange the establishment of the Chunfeng Civil Affairs College and the preparation of the land reorganization according to Lu Yuan's instructions.
In the past few days, Lu Yuan has begun to prepare for the next step of army expansion.
But before that, Lu Yuan still has to do a good job of compensating the officers and soldiers who died in the mighty army.
Li Youlai's wife sat in front of the threshold every day holding her young son who was born in a daze, and since she received Li Youlai's death notice, she had dried up her tears, so she was just in a daze now.
Neighbors from the same production group naturally came to comfort them.
It's like Chen Li comforted them at the beginning.
Not only the neighbors, but also the government of the mighty army will come to comfort the martyr families like the Li family.
At this time, Deng An, the director of Chen Li's production group, came to Li Youlai's house with Yuan Changgui, the director of the management department of retired fallen soldiers.
Now there is a shortage of officials in the entire mighty army, especially those in the civil administration system.
Therefore, many officials in the civil affairs system are concurrently responsible for the affairs of multiple departments.
The newly established Department of Management of Retired Soldiers was also temporarily held by the former chief of military quartermasters.
"Chen Lishi, this is the former director, if you have any difficulties, tell the director, and the director will solve it for you."
Deng An said a word to Chen Li first, then turned around and explained to Yuan Changgui with a smile: "Director Yuan, this is the wife of the martyr Li Youlai, who has just been married for a short time, and the children are not yet full moon. ”
Yuan Changgui nodded, looked at the iron door number of "Martyrs' Family" on Chen Li's head, and didn't know what to say for a while.
However, Yuan Changgui didn't expect that he was a child who originally just wanted to join the Lu family as a slave, but now he became the head of the family in charge of millions of taels of silver military supplies and hundreds of retired fallen soldiers, which made him not only not lose the discouragement of wanting to join the Lu family as a slave at first, but rekindled his desire to get ahead.
At this time, after the original chief waited for Deng An to speak, he also personally asked Chen Li's: "Chen Li's, if there is any difficulty, just say, has your production team paid the pension in full?" ”
Chen Li looked up at Yuan Changgui, his mouth trembled uncontrollably, and his eyes were like water bursting from the embankment: "I want my man to come back to life, woo!" ”
Yuan Changgui couldn't say anything at this time, and he didn't know how to persuade him, so he had to leave, and then asked Deng An: "In the future, you have nothing to ask again, to see if there are any difficulties for the families of these martyrs, although now the department stores of each production group can enjoy more favorable food and meat prices with the martyr's family card, and they also get a pension, but there are still things we can't think of, such as the issue of the martyrs' children going to school or something, you are the director of the production group who cares more about it, without the sacrifice of these martyrs' families, Nor can we live in peace and security in this Qingshui Town. ”
"I know this, Director Yuan, don't worry, even if you don't say it, I will often go to these martyrs' homes to walk around."
Deng An said that there were cries from time to time between the houses in the entire production group, some of the white curtains in front of the doors had not been removed, and some of the new white curtains had been added in front of the doors, and they could not meet the paper money without walking a few steps, and they couldn't help sighing for a while: "This time, the old military households who went north to fight Jiannu have gone a lot, and the influence of our old batch of production groups is not small, and some of the martyrs' families have been extinct. ”
"I have already mentioned this at the meeting, the official and the young grandmother have decided that the newly recruited homeless people will choose some people with more labor at home to give priority to the old production group, after all, our Qingshui Town, especially the production group of Qinghe Village, is the foundation of our mighty army, and it is the most loyal, in addition, some old military households will retire, and the military service system and militia system must be established, but in a few days, you will go to the Civil Affairs College to teach, is the new director of your production group confirmed?"
Yuan Changgui asked.
"Sister Caiyi (sister is Deng An's honorific title for Caiyi) has personally come to supervise and organize the election of our production team, and Yu Qigu has been elected as the director, has it not been passed on to my son."
Deng An said with a somewhat disappointed smile.
"Your ideological consciousness still needs to be improved, the official has already said that our mighty army is to let the poor people in the world be fed and clothed in the future, so that our homeland can be stable for a long time, and within the mighty army, the power is given to you by the official temporarily, no one can privately or even pass on to the descendants, only their own legitimate property and the honor of defending the homeland can be passed on to the descendants, just like the martyr honor of the Chen Li family just now can be passed on to the descendants."
Yuan Changgui said.
"What the director said is that I didn't dare to think so, but some people in the production team thought I was good, so I didn't need to choose again, I just let my son be when I left, save trouble! I don't care about myself, this position is not much fun, I do it honestly, the villagers of a group still say that some people gossip that I deducted the project money and relief funds issued above, the conscience of heaven and earth, even if I have the thief's heart, I don't have the courage of the thief, more than half of the villagers in this production group are military dependents, if they make trouble with you or the young grandmother, I still want to live in Qingshui Town! ”
Deng An said aggrievedly.
"We also understand, at the meeting, the young grandmother also mentioned this point and said that it is difficult for you to be the director of the production team under you, so this time I gave you more treatment, no, you have not worked in vain, you are better, you are going to be a gentleman in the civil affairs school soon, do you know that if you are left in the imperial court, you will teach the old man of the country, you say that you will not be beautiful in the future?"
Yuan Changgui said.
Deng An himself laughed: "I didn't expect it, but I read a book for two or three years back then, and I knew a few words, and now thanks to the official's attention, he actually became a gentleman, the former director, why don't you let those old men and talented ministers come to be gentlemen." ”
"Where do they know the internal affairs of the mighty army, know how to let the people live a good life, besides, they are all people with high eyes and low hands, and now they can't see the future of our officials, you have to seize the opportunity to work hard, and in the future, maybe you are older than some Jinshi masters who are officials now, and you have also taken a night class on analyzing the situation in the world, you should know if this day will change in the future."
Yuan Changgui laughed.
"I naturally understand this! Therefore, I don't dare to say anything else, I only have one word for the official, loyalty! Even if the official wants my life, I don't regret it, before the official came, my family and I were going to starve to death, and now I follow the official, even if I want to fight for the emperor's position in the future, I'm not afraid, it's a big deal or a death, maybe I can also be named a marquis as the play says, and then this honor can be passed on to the descendants, the original director? ”
Deng An said with a smile.
"That's nature! We are all the same, we originally had no home, but now the official has given us a new home, and we have not to defend it well. ”。
Yuan Changgui nodded with a smile, and then said: "Tomorrow is the day to bid farewell to all the fallen martyrs of the mighty army, and your production team must also be ready!" We can't let these good sons who sacrificed for our homeland go alone. ”
"Don't worry, Director Yuan", Deng An nodded.
