(The last fixed update time is about 2 o'clock in the afternoon, and about 11 o'clock in the evening, I have to go to class, sorry.) ）

In 1910, on March 6, the lunar calendar was stunned.

After the sting, the weather became warmer, and there were gradually spring thunders and spring rains. After the third solar term of the year came, the weather in Pingyue also improved significantly, it was not so cold, and the heavy snow in the land had almost melted away, revealing neat rows of wheat seedlings like garlic seedlings.

Ruixue Zhaofeng year, this year's Pingyue snow, is okay, the snow is enough to freeze the insects in the ground to death. It is foreseeable that this new year will be another bumper year for Pingyue.

As the weather warms up, farmers in Fengshan Town, Pingyue County, have to clean up the fatigue after the Spring Festival and prepare for spring ploughing.

The plan of the year lies in the spring, and when spring comes, the hard-working farmers have to think about the next year's crops.

However, this spring, farmers in Pingyue County should consider another more important thing besides spring ploughing.

"Liu Xinxiong, ask the eldest and second and third of your family to go to Master Liu's house to register and go to Pingyue to study, why haven't you acted yet? And where are you going? ”

In Fengshan Village, Fengshan Town, Liu Xinxiong's family, who were carrying hoes and farm tools, were about to work in the field, when suddenly the village chief in the village came. As soon as he saw Liu Xinxiong's posture of their family, he came with a series of questions.

"Go to register for school?" Liu Xinxiong looked at the anxious village chief in a bit of a daze: "Village chief, what kind of books to read, my three children don't have to go to study, they are going, and there will be no one to plant my land." Liu Xinxiong has three sons, the eldest son is twenty-one, the second son is nineteen, and the third son is fifteen.

A few days ago, the village chief also sent a message to every household, saying that there would be a school in Pingyue this year to recruit students and go to school for free, and asked them to send their sons to Pingyue to school. The publicity was in place, but not many people went to the landlord's house to register.

Because, it is okay to study, but it is the busy season of spring plowing and farming recently, and no one wants to let the labor force at home go out to study.

Seeing that there was not much effect, the landlord Liu Songren blamed him, and the village chief was scolded for being a bloody dog. This is no longer a door-to-door propaganda policy.

"Alas, you ...... farming," Liu Xinxiong said, and the village chief didn't know how to explain it for a while.

"By the way, Lao Liu, there is a new policy, the landlord said, if you send your children to study, they will receive two percent less land rent this year, not only will they receive two percent less, but also Master Liu also promised to give you the eldest and the second child to arrange family affairs, saying daughter-in-law." Suddenly, when the village chief didn't know how to persuade, what Liu Songren said to them appeared in his mind, he patted his head and hurriedly said it.

In order to encourage the children of the peasants to go to Pingyue to study, Liu Songren and they have made great efforts, and this kind of policy can be formulated with pain.

"What, if you go to school, you can ask for a daughter-in-law for my eldest and second child?" Liu Xinxiong really became interested.

"Yes, as long as you are willing to go to Pingyue to study, Master Liu has agreed, and you can give your daughter-in-law!" The village chief nodded hurriedly, and sure enough, he saw Liu Xinxiong's two sons showing interest.

"This, Dad, or I, let's go to school?" Liu Xinxiong's eldest son couldn't help but be a little moved.

Liu Xinxiong put down the hoe and looked at his two sons, who were both taller than him, and suddenly realized that it was time for the child to find a daughter-in-law. In this era, it is not easy for farmers to find a daughter-in-law, and generally speaking, they marry late. In the early years, I naturally had no money, and in my later years, in order to support my family, I had no savings or anything.

As for finding a daughter-in-law for the next generation, it has to be encountered, and if it can't be touched, generally their next generation will only be twenty-seven, eighty or thirty years old before they can find a crooked melon and split jujube and get married.

To tell the truth, Mr. Liu told his son that he was a daughter-in-law, and Liu Xinxiong was very moved.

It's just that he always thinks that farming is fundamental, and if you study, you can do it if you have the conditions, and now that the labor force at home is going to study, what should I do with the work in the field?

Liu Xinxiong couldn't help but take out a dry cigarette and smoked it, and the family's eyes were anxiously on him.

"The child's father, why don't you let the child go to school, they have all grown up, and now they have a chance, they can't farm with us for the rest of their lives, right?" Although Liu Xinxiong's daughter-in-law next to her was a woman with short knowledge, she couldn't help but interject when she was thinking about the future of her child at this time.

Liu Xinxiong couldn't help but look at his wife.

"Hey, it's not that I don't agree, but when they went, our family's land couldn't be deserted, although the study was free, but they wanted to eat and drink, and the school couldn't provide it." Liu Xinxiong sighed and voiced his concerns.

Hearing this, the village chief relaxed.

"Lao Liu, I've heard that the school opened by Pingyue this time not only provides free study fees, but also provides students with free food and accommodation."

"Oh?" Liu Xinxiong couldn't help but look at it again.

Pingyue, next to Pingyue Agricultural Products Recycling and Processing Corporation, has been built a relatively simple building.

The building has barely taken shape, and there are a few big words written in the middle: Pingyue Agricultural Primary School.

At this time, in front of the agricultural elementary school, there was already a long queue of students enrolled in the school.

These are the children of peasants who rushed to study in the surrounding towns of Pingyue, and the Pingyue Agricultural Primary School was registered, and under the propaganda and encouragement of all the landlords, almost all the idle laborers in the village came to study.

At a glance, I could see that there were about 4,000 students waiting to sign up and enter the new school.

Chen Liqing and Zhang Xianmo walked over, looking at this lively scene, he was finally able to put his mind at ease. At a glance, he could probably see that a large part of them were young peasant children between eighteen and twenty-two who were not married.

There were about 2,000 of them!

This is the result of Chen Liqing's deliberate choice. Because, these older peasant children, he is not trained to farm, but these peasant children have been booked by him to become reserve soldiers of the security regiment.

The reason why he does not recruit those who are idle in society is because these people are too complicated in their thinking. Only these peasant children have not seen much and their thoughts are relatively simple. Such good seedlings are selected to be cultivated as cronies, so that they will not be easy to rebel, and it is also good to brainwash them.

For the army, to be honest, Chen Liqing loves and fears it.

If you love it, because the troubled times are coming at this time, if you want to survive in the troubled times, only the protection of the army can you settle down. If you are afraid, it is because the army is a force that is not easy to control, and if there is a mutiny, everything he has may be in vain.

The army is a double-edged sword, and Chen Liqing is not sure that he can master it well.

Moreover, with his current age, it is impossible to master any army, and if he does not see anyone accurately, he will only make wedding dresses for others after all.

This is also the reason why Chen Liqing has been slow to get out of the army.

However, the great era is coming, although there is some incertainty, but the establishment of the army cannot be too late, and Chen Liqing can only barely bite the bullet.

"Teacher, the teachers we trained, should be able to all work, right?" Thinking about everything, Chen Liqing suddenly turned around and asked Zhang Xianmo.

"Twenty-five people, all of whom have already taken up their posts, are given a salary of 15 yuan per month." Zhang Xianmo nodded, but then frowned again: "However, the teaching of the security class is not easy to find, and now we are still a decent officer." ”

"If we rely solely on a group of unprofessional people to train the security team, I'm afraid we won't be able to form any combat effectiveness."

Zhang Xianmo is a little worried about this.

Teachers who teach other agricultural courses are fine, but professional military training still needs professional people, and they have little talent to choose from in this regard.

"Officer-teacher?" This also made Chen Liqing frown, and after a while, he suddenly said: "It seems that we still have to go to Guiyang." ”

I don't know why, at this time, a more familiar figure flashed in Chen Liqing's mind.

Yuan Baoyi?

Chen Liqing couldn't help but think of Yuan Baoyi, the first standard commander of the new army of Guiyang South Factory, which was common before.

Call him to be a village military school teacher?

Chen Liqing shook his head, but the corners of his mouth showed a wry smile, can you come? People are the standard!

"Young master, it's not good, something happened, something happened." Just when Chen Liqing and Zhang Xianmo were thinking about what good candidates they had, a voice suddenly remembered behind them.

"Little young master, second young master, our hot pot restaurant in Guiyang has been smashed!"

Zhang Xianmo and Chen Liqing turned their heads, and Erde appeared in front of them, bringing not so good news.

"The hot pot restaurant was smashed?" Chen Liqing was stunned for a moment, and immediately took Erde's letter.

After a while, he put down the letter, looked up and said, "Teacher, it seems that our newly established security team is probably going to come in handy!" ”

"Erde, go and inform the lords that we have a meeting tonight! We'll go to Guiyang tomorrow! Chen Liqing then informed Erde.

"Good at it, young master!" Erde took the order and immediately notified it.

"It seems that our hot pot restaurant still violates the interests of some people!" After reading the letter, Zhang Xianmo couldn't help but look up.

"Of course...... Most of the people have come to our hot pot restaurant to eat, and I was surprised that the other restaurants have been able to endure it until now. Chen Liqing said lightly.

"The new year, it looks like we're going to start with violence!"
