Let's start with Lingpeng Village.

Li Zhen and Xun Shifei were stationed. The government of Xiping County also began to send people to Lingpeng Village to help the villagers open up wasteland and farm.

What if there is no labor force in Lingpeng Village?

Xun Shifei made a decision, that is, government officials, and idle soldiers to help these poor old people farm the land. Help with farm work, help with household chores.

This demand will naturally cause dissatisfaction among many grassroots personnel.

But looking back, Xun Shifei wrote out a detailed plan and reported it to Du Taiping.

Du Taiping presented it to the entire Kyushu Party for reading. Passed the audit unexpectedly.

His suggestion was for the new Kyushu government to carry out a comprehensive overhaul and propose a policy of going to the countryside.

However, all prospective civil servants who pass the examination and interview must go to the countryside to undergo at least one year of training. During this period, public servants should help the poor people to work and get a good reputation.

After the training in the countryside, the local village issued a certificate stating whether the civil servant had performed well during the exercise. If you perform well, then you have a good chance of being placed in the important yamen. If you don't perform well, you may go to a place with little prospect of promotion.

If the performance is bad, you can be directly expelled and not recruited.

If this person is in the countryside, he can even lead the whole village to a new height and exceed the task. It is very likely that the ground will rise flat. As soon as the exercise is over, it is possible to obtain a position of authority.

The future of state civil servants should be linked to life in the countryside. You help me, I help you. Doesn't this completely solve the problem of the poor being too poor and the rich being too rich?

Even if there is no way to solve it.

However, it can be led by a knowledgeable and knowledgeable quasi-public servant in a poor mountain village to disseminate new knowledge and new technology. This is also a hundred benefits and no harm.

Li Zhen was a little amazed at the idea put forward by Xun Shifei, he was faintly clear about this idea, he had heard Zhang Zhi say it before. But I didn't expect it to be mentioned by Xun Shifei. Immediately looked at Xun Shifei with some admiration.

This is not a man who can only play tricks and city government. He has dreams, wants to show his ambitions, and wants to do something practical for the people.

Although Xun Shifei was very cold-blooded to his family before, when it comes to his status, in fact, the most important thing is fraternity. Obviously, Xun Shifei did it.

After three congresses of the Kyushu Party, Xun Shifei's idea was decided, and it was constantly discussed in the meeting, and was constantly improved and supplemented by the top level of the Kyushu Party.

A month later, the new Kyushu government issued a comprehensive new policy detail.

As soon as this detailed rule came out, some people were happy and some were worried.

It is the disciples of the poor who rejoice, because if those disciples of the poor family want to enter the officialdom in the future, it will be difficult for them to get ahead step by step without the power of the family. It's hard to get in the leadership position.

But as soon as this rule comes out, as long as you are really a talent and really have ideas. If you are placed in a poor place and brought rich, then you can soar from the ground. At least a few years less time to struggle.

It's the powerful people in the family who are worried.

For example, the children of some big officials, in the normal procedure, the roads of these second generations were paved. But now that there is one more condition for prospective civil servants to go to the countryside for training, this is completely disrupted.

If it's a mule or a horse, you have to pull it out and slip away. Whether you are a talent or not, if you are arranged to go to the countryside, it will become a litmus test, and if you perform well, you can only be regarded as qualified and enter the post normally, but this will be a waste of several years. It's only when you're performing so well that you can take it a step after your workout. And this can't be faked.

There must have been someone who conducted an inspection and assessment.

Since the state has issued such a policy, it must have thought of deception. No matter how powerful you are, as long as you are not a big official in Beijing, can you still buy off the people who have passed the assessment?

Then again, there are only so many children of senior officials in Beijing, and they can't affect the overall situation. How about opening a back door to a few people?

————

Li Zhen didn't stay in Lingpeng Village for too long, and took the children entrusted to him by the two old men, and went to other villages with people from the Kyushu Academy of Sciences and some other officials to investigate.

I watched a lot and thought a lot.

Li Zhen said: "The biggest problem in Xizhou is actually the lack of labor. ”

Jia Liping sighed: "Yes." Everyone thinks that Xizhou is poor for various reasons. In fact, the fundamental reason is that there is a shortage of labor, and the labor force has gone to other states to make a living, and those who stay are the elderly and children. If this goes on for a long time, it will naturally be a vicious circle, and we will become poorer and poorer. Who would have thought that such a reason would be for not conducting an on-the-spot investigation? Maybe the local parents and officials in Xizhou don't know why they are poor, right? ”

"There is a small labor force, and this problem is not solved. Relying on those civil servants who will go to the countryside in the future is just a drop in the bucket. No matter how talented a person is, he is just one person, and he can't do the work of the whole village, right? When the time comes, you will be exhausted. ”

"But Master Li, what else can be done? Is it mandatory to call back all the laborers who have left the Western State? This is impossible, it is true in every state, and it is not enough to rely on forced summoning. Even if the corresponding incentive policies for returning to their hometowns are introduced, I am afraid it will be difficult to see results. ”

Li Zhen stood on the top of the mountain, overlooking the wasteland below and the scattered houses: "So, we have to do both. ”

"How do you do both?"

"While encouraging the labor force to return to the hometown, it is also necessary to solve the labor problem from another aspect."

"So how do you solve the labor force?"

"Machinery replaces labor."

Jia Liping's eyes lit up: "What does Master Li mean is to develop a farming machine with mechanical strength?" ”

Li Zhen nodded: "Science is the primary productive force." It's also not right to always look at the sky higher and farther, and look down, the earth under our feet also needs us. Science should be used not only at the national level, but also in the daily life of ordinary people. Farming machinery, it's time to start R&D. Even Xun Shifei can come up with a policy for civil servants to go to the countryside for training, how can the Kyushu Academy of Sciences, which has been committed to serving mankind, be left behind? ”

Jia Liping pondered for a long time: "Then when does Master Li think it will start?" ”

Li Zhen groaned: "Xizhou doesn't need us anymore, Xun Shifei is interested in it this time, he must care more about the promotion of hybrid rice than me." Let's do it. ”

Boss Peng stared at his little eyes and asked, "Uncle Li, are we leaving?" ”

Peng Lao Er clenched his little fist and asked with a smile on his face: "I'm going to Laoshan." ”

Li Zhen smiled and patted the heads of the two dolls: "Yes." Do you want to go? ”

"Yes!"

"Why do you want to?"

"My grandfather said that Laoshan is a place where talents are produced. My grandfather also said that I was a talent. ”

"Grandpa also said that I was also a talent. Talent will definitely go to the Kyushu Academy of Sciences. ”

“……”

Li Zhen and Jia Liping glanced at each other and couldn't help laughing.
