Chapter 100: Wang Shuhui's Journey to the Countryside 4

86_86695 The countryside in the last years of the Ming Dynasty and the countryside in modern society are two different concepts.

Wang Shuhui is a native of Northeast China. He has been to the countryside of Northeast China many times and knows the countryside of Northeast China very well. He studied in Fujian for four years as an undergraduate and has also been to many rural areas in Fujian. Therefore, he thinks that he still knows something about China's rural areas.

The countryside Wang Shuhui saw in the northeast was the kind of vast wilderness that stretched as far as the eye could see. Between the seemingly endless fields of neat farmland, there are some villages of red bricks and red tiles. The villages are connected by concrete roads.

The countryside Wang Shuhui saw in Fujian was the kind of rural area that was very urban. Although there is a lot of farmland, it is the main content of Fujian's rural areas that all kinds of self-run small enterprises. Each village is lined with four- and five-story buildings. Almost every household has a private car, and it doesn't have to be just one.

Anyway, whether it is the countryside in the northeast or the countryside in the south, except for the use of various agricultural machinery to farm the land, the life of farmers is similar to that of urban residents. In Wang Shuhui's eyes, it seems that whether it is in the rural areas of Northeast China or the rural areas of Fujian, the income and living standards of farmers seem to be better than those of urban residents.

The first impression of Zhaojiatan Village on Wang Shuhui was that it was very dirty. The path from the pier to the village was clearly manicured. However, because it had rained for the past two days, the narrow path with fine sand after the soil was compacted was muddy. Wang Shuhui walked all the way, and the upper of his shoes was full of mud. Fortunately, he was wearing leather boots issued by the Renaissance Army, and although the upper was full of mud and water, there was actually no mud on his feet.

After arriving in the village, Wang Shuhui had a second impression of Zhaojiatan Village. Wang Shuhui's second impression of Zhaojiatan is poverty. In addition to the working group, the peasant association, and the militia, Wang Shuhui saw all the villagers, whether adults, children, women, or the elderly, dressed in tattered clothes on the way into the village. It was winter, but no one was wearing shoes. Their feet were clearly not shoes, but rags tied to their feet with rope made of straw.

However, on the way into the village, Wang Shuhui saw that the villagers were obviously in good spirits. Except that when they saw their group, everyone was more afraid and unconsciously wanted to dodge. All of them, the nutritional status is okay. At least not the yellow-faced and thin-skinned appearance of the people he saw on the road when he first arrived at the end of the Ming Dynasty.

What's more, Wang Shuhui didn't see a single idler. Everybody is working, or it's obvious where they're going. Even those who sit in front of their own homes are doing their jobs in their hands. Most people are weaving baskets.

Because Wang Shuhui had been taught a lesson on the dock, everyone didn't move, just quietly observed the qiē on the road. Wang Shuhui strictly implemented his own requirements, and walked towards the station of the working group without saying a word, under the leadership of the leader of the Zhaojiatan Village Working Group and the president of the Peasant Association.

Zhao Henian, the president of the peasant association, was already on the dock and had a certain fear of Wang Shuhui. When he was walking, he found that Wang Shuhui was observing the situation in the village without saying a word, and he didn't dare to come forward to speak. Deng Daguang, the leader of the Zhaojiatan Working Group, and Wenming, the deputy leader of the Zhaojiatan Working Group, who accompanied Wang Shuhui, did not dare to get close to Wang Shuhui because they felt that their work in Zhaojiatan was not very good. In this way, in the silence, the investigation team arrived at the station of the Zhaojiatan working group.

The Zhaojiatan working group was stationed in the homes of the downed landlords, as in other base villages. The original landlord here in Zhaojiatan was Ma Songhua's family. However, the Ma family only sent a housekeeper here, so the location of the working group in Zhaojiatan is the residence of this housekeeper in Zhaojiatan. The peasant association and militia of Zhaojiatan are also stationed here along with the working group.

Ma Songhua's housekeeper lives well in Zhaojiatan. The residence of the working group, the peasant association, and the militia is a small three-hall house with blue bricks and green tiles. The first courtyard is the office of the working group and the peasant association, and the second courtyard is the dormitory of the working group and the militia. The third courtyard is a village school run by the working group.

Under the arrangement of Deng Daguang and Wenming, Wang Shuhui and his entourage lived in the second courtyard. After a simple wash and rest, Wang Shuhui gave the order to dismiss and rest, and then went to the village school accompanied by Deng Daguang and Wenming.

The lighting of traditional houses is not very good, so Wang Shuhui saw that the village school was wide open, and all the windows and doors were open. A young man dressed in a uniform of the Revival Society was teaching more than 30 students of all ages. Using chalk produced by the Revival Society, he was teaching the children math lessons on a blackboard plastered with cement. According to Wang Shuhui's visual inspection, the oldest of these children is thirteen or fourteen years old, and the youngest is only five or six years old.

The young teacher taught addition and subtraction within a hundred. After he finished talking about today's knowledge points, he walked down and began to inspect each student. His specific approach is to give each student a question and then watch the student solve the problem. A little boy who was six or seven years old and still had a snot was stumped by the teacher's question. Wang Shuhui looked forward and saw a 17+34 equation. This little snot has obviously forgotten how to use the vertical position.

Wang Shuhui no longer paid attention to how the young man taught the little snot vertical pose, but began to observe the classroom environment. This room, which is used as a classroom, is about 50 square meters. There is no hanging shed on the roof, so you can see the beams of the house directly. There are a lot of lanterns hanging on the beams of the house, which are supposed to be used for lighting at night when the militia is in class.

The desks and benches used by the students should be the products of the recent Fuxing Association woodworking factory, which are the same desks, chairs and benches used by Wang Shuhui in elementary school. The two of them sat on a long table with a desk, and sat on a chair with a backrest nailed with slats. However, because the Revival Society does not have a paint industry, these tables and stools are in their original color.

Wang Shuhui stood next to the classroom for a while, and obviously felt bursts of heat coming out of the house with the doors and windows wide open. The earth dragon must have been burned in the house, so those thinly dressed children were not frozen and couldn't sit still. Wang Shuhui listened to the lecture for a while and felt that this young man taught well. He didn't stay any longer, and led Deng Daguang and Wenming back to the dormitory.

When they arrived at the dormitory, Wang Shuhui took a sip of the hot water that Deng Daguang brought to him and said to them, "In the evening, the inspection team will listen to your report. Take advantage of the afternoon to prepare. There is no need to be nervous or anything, just make a report on what you have done in Zhaojiatan this year, what specific achievements you have made, as well as the difficulties in your work, as well as what you have thought after a year of work, what plans you have for this year, and so on. ”

Deng Daguang breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and he said to Wang Shuhui, "Master, the last time I went back for a meeting, I heard some comrades say that the Committee of Agriculture is not very satisfied with our work in Zhaojiatan. What is the specific situation, the master will tell us about it. Where we didn't do well, we can also correct it. ”

Wang Shuhui shook his head and said to Deng Daguang and Wenming, "You two don't listen to the wind or the rain, if the Committee of Agriculture thinks that there is something wrong with your work, the people of the Committee of Agriculture will directly come forward to talk to you, or directly give you orders." There is nothing to do with that at the moment, which means that COAG has no problem with your work. You just have to continue your work in accordance with the requirements of the Committee of Agriculture in a down-to-earth manner. ”

"Besides, I'm not from COAG. How will I know if COAG has any opinion on you? Anyway, from me, I haven't heard anyone from COAG talk about you here. But the Trade Office told me about your village. It is said that the rattan baskets in your village have been selling well recently. ”

Deng Daguang and Wenming both grinned when they heard this. Wang Shuhui took another sip of hot water and asked them, "I just saw that many people in the village don't wear shoes. Here's what's going on. Whether you are poor and can't afford to wear shoes, or are you stingy and reluctant to wear them. ”

When Deng Daguang heard this, his face showed some embarrassment. He said to Wang Shuhui, "Master, it's really what you said. Zhaojiatan is very stingy here. Originally, we used the money from the previous sales of rattan baskets to give a benefit to the whole village, that is, to give each family a piece of cloth from our textile factory and three pairs of straw sandals from our wood processing factory. But these simps didn't know what to think, so they sold all the cloth and straw sandals to the county town. And it sells cheaper than the ex-factory price in our factory, which makes us angry enough. ”

When Wang Shuhui heard this, he sighed in his heart and said to the two people, "In the final analysis, it is caused by poverty. In the afternoon, you should think about whether there is any way to increase the income of the villagers. ”

Hearing this, Deng Daguang and Wenming looked at each other, and said to Wang Shuhui embarrassedly, "Master, we really have a way to say it, and this method can also collect the hearts of those fishermen in this village." ”

As soon as Wang Shuhui heard this, he suddenly remembered what the shipyard had asked him about whether he could sell the steamship to an individual. He asked, "Are you eyeing the steamships that are eyeing the shipyard?" ”

Deng Daguang immediately showed a sycophant face, and said to Wang Shuhui with a sneer, "The master is wise. That's what we're thinking about. This trick was still thought of under the inspiration of Zhao Henian. The old fox screwed the fishermen of their old Zhao family together, fished and sold fish together, and then divided the money together. It worked a lot, and it made them a lot more money than they used to make when they were doing their own jobs. ”。
