readx;?“ That's a problem. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Du Yande said, "Just like when we landed here just now, An Yuncheng didn't know our strength, thinking that he could drive us out with more than 2,000 villagers, but after being beaten, it has been very quiet until now. ”

"But if the Haibian Wu Dynasty army is not honest, we don't have a mouthful?" The example couldn't help but be a little discouraged, "If we run over and beat the martial country for no reason, first of all, we will not have a moral advantage, and the people will think that we are a militant country with no morality." Secondly, even if we can defeat the Wu ** team, there is no benefit, at this time, the Wu Dynasty has already levied 'Liao Salary' and 'Barbarian Salary' on the people's taxes, and we are really fighting with them now, not only can we not get any benefits, in addition to stirring up the lives of the people, we can also help these officials to make a 'salary'. There are still tens of millions of ordinary people in the Wu Dynasty, who will be impoverished or even bankrupt and lose their livelihoods because of this. ”

"Wouldn't it be better to lose your livelihood? In this way, they can come to work with us, and if we have enough population advantage, we can overwhelm the other forces of the plane in terms of productivity. "Xiao Jing is straight, and he can say whatever he wants.

"Then this is a big mistake, since we have violently beaten the Wu State, then the propaganda organs of the Wu State will declare that we are bandits, or murderous enemies like the Nanban, even if none of us ordinary people have persecuted us. The common people must only choose to believe the rumors from the mouths of the officials and squires, and try to avoid fleeing to our side. Jiang Yan interjected, "And the more the population, the better, I said before that only the educated population can truly enjoy the role of the demographic dividend, and Africa in the old time and space is the best example." ”

Everyone was silent, and it was. Although education was still being carried out in the Oriental Port at this time, children were required to pay compulsory education, and if there were parents who did not want to send their children to school, they had to pay two yuan a month to the Senate for "exemption from education...... In Dongfanggang, where the salary is still two or three yuan a month, no parent has such a salary, not to mention that the schools in the Senate are all knowledge, and the most reassuring thing for parents is that the school has to take care of a lunch, which is a big pie among these poor and frightened naturalized people. But children are taught by age, and even today's crash course takes at least six years from elementary school to junior high school. It is not possible to pull out the seedlings in the middle to help students graduate early, which is a very severe test. In other words, the first batch of highly educated naturalized citizens who met the requirements of the Senate would not be able to graduate and work until six years at the earliest, and before that, the senators would have to teach how to do things.

And there are some children who are older than 12 years old, and it is too late to teach from pinyin and 11=2 at this time, so they can only choose more rapid educational methods than crash courses for training. At the moment, I don't know whether this teaching method is a blessing or a curse, so I can only walk and watch by feeling the stones and crossing the river.

Although night schools and various study classes are now carried out in factories, the army, and the police, adult education is always a troublesome problem, not to mention that the working hours of this eastern port are twelve hours at this time, and it is a kind of torment for both workers and teachers to spare time for night school in the evening.

For this reason, Jiang Yan repeatedly approached the Senate to ask for more investment in education and an expansion of the number of teachers, so that Yang Minghuan began to have leg cramps every time he saw him. As for Yu Sha, he was even more annoyed, every time he fell in love with an educated naturalized citizen, he always had to fight with Jiang Yan in a bloody manner, but he couldn't say that this woman had to give in every time. Although the education department of the Senate had expanded to more than 50 teachers, including 12 senators, it was still a drop in the bucket in the face of the growing number of uneducated naturalized citizens.

Yu Sha knew that it was still very early for the demographic dividend period of the Senate at this time, so he could only support Jiang Yan's point of view. "Indeed, we now have quite a few people on hand, and if you add the people exchanged from Annam and the sailors captured from the Medeno this time, there are more than 10,000 people. But because the level of education is far from meeting the standard of use, we can only use these people to do some basic construction work for the time being. As he spoke, he opened his notebook, "We only need 500 workers when the brick factory is fully operational, and in order to make full use of the population and save fuel, the timber used in the lumber mill is now cut and transported from the woods by manpower, and even with such a large-scale use of manpower, only more than 1,200 people are used in the logging and transportation part. ”

Sun Wenbin unconsciously flipped through the notebook on the side, and after a while, seeing that no one spoke, he said softly, "This is not the most annoying, the scale of the farm we developed before was cultivated according to the full amount of grain needed by 5,000 people a year, but at this time, more than 10,000 people emerged from my brain, do you think I am a robot cat who can conjure food from a treasure bag?" Now because the port of Champa has been sacked by the Nanban, there are almost no channels for grain imports, and a few days ago we opened a warehouse to collect grain, and we used the highest price in the locality, and the grain collected was only enough for 20,000 people to eat for half a year. ”

"Can't you reclaim new land?" Du Yande hurriedly asked, he was the one who handled the grain collection this time, and he knew how much grain he had received. "In addition, you can continue to collect grain."

"Continue to collect grain?" Sun Wenbin smiled helplessly, "Because we purchased a large amount of grain, the price of grain in An Yuncheng has risen sharply. Although there are a few wealthy landlords who secretly buy grain from other places to sell, their profits are not large after excluding transportation costs, and it is expected that the amount of grain they can receive will plummet. Now the rich families in An Yuncheng regard us as local tyrants, and they are unwilling to sell the grain in their hands anymore. ”

Speaking of this, Sun Wenbin paused, "What's more, it will soon be time to sow seeds, and if all the grain is sold at this time, there may be a serious shortage of grain when sowing, and I am sure that these rich landlords will definitely not want to sell grain anymore." ”

"As for the reclamation of new land, there is no problem, but now we have no seeds to plant, and all the crop seeds we brought have been sown, and even the highland barley peppercorns grown in the cold zone are planted by me, and I am afraid that I can only plant people if I plant them again."

"Then let's continue to reclaim the new land first, you have the highest authority, you can open up a farm on the newly opened land," Yang Minghuan said to Sun Wenbin, "If you don't have anything to plant, you can leave it there first, even if it's long grass, it's better than nothing, at least it can be used to feed livestock." ”

"Well, that's all there is to it now." Sun Wenbin shrugged his shoulders and closed the notebook.

"If you want to collect more grain, I think it's more important to build roads," Xie Mingfang immediately repeated the old words, which surprised the elders.

The bag on the side also nodded in agreement, "Yes, road construction is an important thing at this stage. First, we digest these uneducated people by building roads on a large scale, just like Roosevelt's cash-for-work in the past. Second, just like the road leading to Anyun County now, although it is only two lanes wide, it provides convenient transportation conditions for us to purchase grain from Anyun City. In the future, both development and trade are very important things, and even if the Wu Dynasty has to use troops to the north in the future, it is even more important to have a road with convenient transportation. Moreover, even if the Wu Dynasty army wanted to attack us, it could only choose to go south from this avenue, which invisibly limited the mobility and combat area of the Wu Dynasty army. ”

Several veterans of the military group nodded in agreement. Bao Bao said as he took out a document from the document bag he was carrying, "This is a place that was found on a sunny slope in the west by the commission of the Senate, the altitude is only one hundred and twenty or thirty meters, the terrain is relatively flat, easy to handle, very suitable for a martyr's cemetery, I have called the engineering team to build a road to that low mountain." If needed, the burial can be carried out tomorrow. ”

Everyone was stunned for a while, the army, marines, and even militia had suffered casualties in the defense of Dongfang Port a few days ago, and 86 people were counted dead on the spot, and 16 people were still missing, and there are still 10 people who are missing, and can only be treated as killed. In the days that followed, five more seriously injured people did not survive. Therefore, the total number of people who died this time was one hundred and seven. In the past few days, the timber mills are mainly rushing to make coffins, this is no way, the natives of this time and space are all concerned about entering the soil for safety, even if they have no money, they can make a broken straw mat and fool the past, but if they are cremated according to the habits of the old time and space, in their opinion, it is simply a frustration of bones and ashes, even if they don't turn the Senate upside down, at least this will quietly plant the seeds of dissatisfaction in their hearts.

"Well, without further ado, let's be ready tomorrow and bury it the day after tomorrow." Yang Minghuan made the decision after exchanging views with several other members of the executive committee.

Bao Bao nodded and replied: "Okay, no problem, I will ask the engineering team to do a simple leveling work on the cemetery before the burial, and the large-scale construction will be carried out after the burial." ”

"By the way, we have another big event," Yang Minghuan said suddenly, "It's only a few days before the Chinese New Year, and we seem to have been busy with various production work since we came over." During the Chinese New Year, production positions are given three days off, except for the power sector. ”

Yuan Fangzheng was about to speak, but immediately fell silent, and stayed aside dejectedly.

"In addition, we brought a few sets of movie playback equipment, and I think we can show a movie on this time and space." Du Yande, who was on the side, hurriedly suggested.

"Isn't it okay?" Yu Sha raised an objection, "There are now five or six thousand people in Dongfang Port, and in addition to the prisoner camps and labor camps, there are also two or three thousand naturalized people, how can this movie be played?" There's nowhere to look. ”

"It's okay, I believe that the local aborigines shouldn't have much interest in the movie, and it shouldn't gather too many people." Du Yande said a little unconfidently.

Sure enough, Yuan Fang said faintly on the side: "I think when Tuba Road showed a movie in the border area, when was it not an empty alley?" Even if these naturalized people don't know about the movie for a while, after half an hour of storage, all the naturalized people in the Oriental Port must be concentrated in the film screening area. ”
