"Oh, Lord Liao, but it's okay to talk about it." Lin Feng didn't care, raised his glass to Liao Jusu, and did it first as a respect.

Liao Jusu's face was calm, but his eyes were very resolute, he raised his glass, but did not drink, put it back on the table, and said in a deep voice: "When the craftsmen and villagers mentioned Lord Lin, they were all grateful, and Liao had deep respect for this. However, Liao overheard two villagers saying that they were going to find the village chief and deputy village head? Liao was very puzzled, so he inquired about several people and confirmed that they had followed Lord Lin's advice, elected the village head, and were making village rules. Liao wanted to ask Lord Lin, what are your plans for the future of this village? ”

Although Liao Jusu's most reluctant question was very secretive, the other people were stunned, and immediately understood, and looked at Lin Feng together. Especially Lu Jiang, who quickly got up and walked to the door to look out, and gently closed the door and window.

Lin Feng looked at Liao Jusu, and then at everyone, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. These people have all studied the Confucian classics, and will naturally abide by the principle of "under the whole world, it is not the king's land; In their hearts, that village is a natural and natural part of the Tang Dynasty, but Lin Feng is engaged in an independent election in the village, this matter can be big or small, it can be so big that it can be boundless, and even the charge of rebellion against the monarch can be put on it!

Lin Feng smiled and said, "I understand what Lord Liao meant. Lord Liao, have you ever seen a piece of land around the village? ”

Lin Feng's strange question made Liao Jusu stunned, and said with some hesitation: "No." There is some poor land across the road in front of the village, but it is impossible to think that it is in the village. ”

"Did you find any young and strong villagers?" Lin Feng continued to ask.

"I only found one in the afternoon, and my leg seems to be somewhat disabled." Liao Jusu's tone was even more hesitant.

"Let me tell you accurately, out of the 97 people in the village, only seven of them can barely be considered young and strong, and can basically support themselves." Lin Feng said in an accentuated tone, looked at the people in front of him who were confused, and then said, "They now have a new house, which can be regarded as solving the problem of living, but they are all people with four walls, if there is no next step of care and help, can these widows, widows, lonely and disabled people live?" ”

Lin Feng's rhetorical question made Liao Jusu and the others fall into deep thought.

"You've all seen the maids in my house, haven't you? She was originally from the village, but she didn't know how she used to support herself and her sick mother? Lin Feng stood up, slowed down his tone, and said unusually calmly, "Except for the occasional neighborhood that can help with a little food, Yaya has to go to a small vegetable market five miles away every afternoon to pick up vegetable leaves that others don't want, pick up steamed buns that have fallen to the ground, and go to the garbage heap to pick up anything to eat!" Yaya told me that once she encountered a person's rice bag leaking, and she picked it up one by one for a long time, improving the rice soup for her sick mother for half a month! When I went to her house, I found only a small jar of pickles, and they could only hold five finger-long pickles in a meal! ”

The more Lin Feng spoke, the calmer his tone became, while the more people at the table listened, the more surprised they became, and their mouths opened wide. After Liao Jusu heard the most sorrow, he sat down on the stool weakly, and suddenly felt very bitter in his mouth, the lively little girl that everyone often saw in the Lin Mansion had experienced such a difficult and difficult life? Liao Jusu is also a person who lives in difficulty, and he has also been stumped by a penny, and he can better understand the feeling of loneliness and helplessness in his heart.

Lin Feng's tone changed, and he raised his tone a little and said, "That village has less than a hundred households, which is not enough to become a mile; It is also a village that was gathered later, and there is no hometown to belong to. The righteous people in one mile are mainly tax supervisors and rent supervisors, but will there be taxes to collect and rent to be collected in such a village? ”

Yes, such a village is essentially an out-and-out burden, but I'm afraid that no one will be willing to be right! Liao Jusu was speechless and lowered his head.

It was with this in mind that Lin suggested that they elect their own village chief and deputy village head, manage themselves on a daily basis, do a good job in public sanitation and other things, and occasionally let those old people discuss and deal with disputes in the village. Otherwise, it won't be long before the village becomes very messy again, and the villagers will once again fall into a state of self-destruction and self-abandonment! Lin Feng deliberately misinterpreted and twisted the concept of villagers' autonomy, reducing it to managing sanitation and village disputes in order to convince the people in front of him.

So that's the case, and the people at the table suddenly showed a relieved look.

Lin Mouzhi said that Lord Liao also wanted to remind Lin to pay attention and not to leave some people with accusatory handles. However, in the face of such a village, what should we do, what can we do? Although we all have good intentions, to be honest, I can help one girl, at most one Aunt Liu, but I can't help the whole village! We can help them for a while, but we can't help them for a lifetime! So, in the end, everything is on their own! Lin Feng said in a heavy tone, continuing to deepen the psychological perception of these people.

Liao Jusu stood up, raised the glass in front of him, and made up for the glass of wine he owed just now. Shi Xubai also picked up the cup in front of him and gave Lin Feng a cup to express his respect.

"Of course, Lin knows the organizational structure of the county, township, li, and neighborhood, but in the face of such a special village, Lin is thinking, isn't our Datang reform to break the old, unreasonable, and inappropriate things, and find the most local ways and methods to adapt to local conditions?" Lin Feng began to extend his context and brought the topic to change.

"In business, we can run supermarkets and directly give the choice of goods to the people; For change, we can organize a temporary change group in the temple of Ching Si to brainstorm and draft terms. In order to recruit talents, we can engage in ten questions on recruitment, and recruit practical and needed talents without sticking to one pattern; Why can't we make a special zone out of this village? Let them try to govern themselves, feed themselves, and develop themselves, so that they will no longer be a burden on a country, but eventually become a powerful grassroots support of a country? Lin Feng raised his voice and said loudly.

"Okay, it is worthy of being my old Han's sworn brother, with these deafening and cleansing words, my old Han respects you a cup!" Han Xizai got up from the case, poured a large glass of wine, and drank it all. Lu Jiang, Shu Ya, and Wu Qiao also bowed down and toasted together.

"Change is always full of resistance! In particular, when the country develops to change in the middle of the process, there is more resistance and more opposition to nature! But I have never been afraid, no matter what method I use, as long as I can bring more hope to the village, as long as it is beneficial to my Datang national economy and people's livelihood, I am willing to endure and face anyone's accusations and suspicions! Lin Feng said categorically.

"Lord Lin's mind and realm really make Liao admire! I punished myself with three cups to make amends to Lord Lin! Liao Jusu stood up with a flushed face, picked up a small bowl on the table, poured half a bowl of wine, and prepared to pour it down in one gulp.

Lin Feng grabbed Liao Jusu's hand and said with a smile: "Lin is just expressing his chest, it is definitely not aimed at Lord Liao, you and I should make a bowl together!" ”

After speaking, Lin Feng also poured a small bowl of wine, handed it forward, and with the crisp sound of the two bowls colliding, he raised his head and poured all the wine into his throat.
