Wen Wen shook his head and said, "You are wrong, this is actually just the beginning of a nightmare, how did you cause this situation in the suburbs of Shanghai, to put it bluntly, the culprit is this red low hemp. To this day, the common people are also secretive about it, and they only dare to call it "red pockmark" in private."

Li Rui frowned and asked, "What the hell is going on?"

Wen Wen continued: "After Hongmazi occupied Shanghai, in the name of "protecting the territory and the people", the common people were deprived of their personal property, the commodity currency was abolished, and all the residents were driven to the countryside to work, and the so-called countryside is actually our current suburbs. When the common people received the order to evacuate the whole city, Hong Mazi first said that the planes of the warlords outside were about to bomb them, in order to ensure the safety of the residents of the city. Later, he said that he was worried that there were a large number of enemies hidden in the city and needed to do a unified inventory, and declared that they would definitely be allowed to go back in a short time. Then the soldiers took the guns and forced the citizens to leave the city immediately, and many of them were already being shot on the road before they could pack their bags."

But where is the destination? I don't know. The only thing I knew was that I had to leave immediately, to the countryside.

At the beginning of the evacuation, some people asked to stay for some time because they had to wait for the return of their family members, and were directly shot by the red pockmark soldiers. Some families hid in their houses and refused to carry out the evacuation order, and were shot along with their houses.

In this way, in less than three days, the city of Shanghai was no longer populated, and it became a dead city. Tens of thousands of people died along the way.

Hongmazi forcibly drove all the city dwellers to the countryside and did not allow them to take any property with them. These people were forced to come to the countryside to do heavy manual labor, and the rest of the annual harvest had to be handed over except for rations and seeds.

In fact, he has no experience and is not prepared to learn to manage a big city. They pursued the "purest" utopia, in their view, the city as a symbol of ugliness, which corrupted the cadres and the masses, and that it was necessary to destroy it if the ideal society was to be built.

Many of them put forward a series of "exciting" governance proposals, such as abolishing money and markets, and implementing a distribution according to demand and a universal supply system. Men, women, and children work collectively, and all women throughout the country wear short hair, and meals are rationed in large canteens. Private ownership of property is prohibited. The family is abolished, the family is not allowed to be freely organized, the marriage is arranged by the organization, and the married couple is to live separately. People were forbidden to engage in religious activities, and monks were ordered to return to the laity. There are no formal schools, and books and printed materials are banned. Traditional songs, dances and dramas were banned, and the spread of Western culture was strictly prohibited. People can't move freely. There are no postal and telecommunications services, and there are no hospitals. Divide people into "old people" and "new people". The "old people" were the people who had followed them to fight the world, mainly farmers. The "new people" are the original urban population, mainly intellectuals, monks, skilled workers, merchants, city dwellers, etc., who are under the supervision and control of the "old people", who are either cleaned up, exhausted to death by super-intense manual labor, or dyed of starvation and disease.

A new social governance system: collective labor, collective eating and drinking, collective marriage, collective sleeping, plus distribution on demand, national supply, no need to make money, no need to go to work, no need to study, no need to worry about birth, old age, sickness and death, everything is arranged by red pockmarks. It seems that it is so inspiring and inspiring, and it makes people feel calm for a long time. However, it didn't take long......

The system of collective production and distribution led to low social productivity, and the food supply became less and less, and later people starved to death every day, wild vegetables, grass roots, and tree bark were quickly eaten, and later the living began to eat dead human flesh.

The living were subjected to daily ideological reform, and the citizens of the city learned how to do farm work, and the slightest slack was purged on suspicion of class dissent. Disciples must eat pork to prove their freedom from the faith, and those who resist will be killed. Countless women have been forced to accept "group marriage".

Wen Wen said angrily: "Don't you know, this "group wedding" simply doesn't treat women as human beings. The number of people who marry in the same ceremony can range from 3-10 couples to 30-50 couples, or even more than 100 couples. Most men and women are not allowed to choose their spouses. Some couples don't know the name and appearance of their future spouse before the wedding ceremony. Their own family members are also not usually allowed to attend weddings or participate in making any decisions."

"This, this is too inhumane!" plum

Rui is also angry.

"Sometimes women are forced to marry soldiers who have been disabled in war. Women who refused to accept disabled men were imprisoned and tortured, or forced to do hard labor far from their families. Some women who face forced marriage have committed suicide. My grandmother told her a story about the time when the soldiers of the red pockmarks pointed to a list of names asking the girls in the village to get married. At the wedding ceremony the next day, men and women were asked to stand in two rows. The village chief then asks the couple to join hands with each other and swear that they will spend their lives together, thus signifying that they are married. After marriage, couples are only allowed to live together for a few days before they go back to their respective production groups. They will be allowed to go home and meet once every 7-10 days."

For the red hemckson, the main purpose of this kind of group wedding is not to build a family unit, but to produce children who can serve them.

Wen Wen continued, "There are no schools in the suburbs, so children study under trees or at home. Their teachers are often poor peasants with very low literacy skills. When the children were a certain age, they would take them out of their homes and take them into the kind of training classes that forcibly inculcated the minds so that they could become soldiers, guards, and heralds in the future. As for the children, they collect manure, cut the grass, collect human manure for fertilizer, and carry weapons into battle, where they are sometimes killed or wounded."

The heaviest tasks were assigned to adults, who had to dig canals and reservoirs, build dikes, cut trees, prepare land, plant and harvest rice. Almost everyone works more than 12 hours a day, with no days off and no adequate amount of food. They sometimes work from sunrise until midnight if the moon is bright enough. When there is no moonlight, a fire is set up to illuminate the rice fields. Repetitive or serious mistakes made in the course of one's work can result in the death penalty.

At that time, men, women, and children worked collectively and ate collectively in public canteens. Shanghai was originally a land of fish and rice, but due to the decline in grain production year by year, people could only barely drink gruel. In order to make up for the lack of food, some people secretly planted vegetables and fed poultry and livestock, but they were all confiscated by red pockmarks. If there is not enough food to eat, self-reliance is not allowed, then you can only steal, and if you are caught stealing food, you will starve at least and be shot at worst, because all the food is red pockmark.

"Red pockmarks are so perverse, won't the common people resist?" Li Rui asked.

"Why didn't you resist, but Hongmazi has a gun in his hand, and the people can't even eat, how can they have the strength to resist? Those who really couldn't stand it got up and fought hard with the red pockmarks, and they were all killed!" Wen Wen replied: "Hongmazi set up "mass graves" everywhere, also known as "bell houses", and if they were disobedient, they were dragged to the bell house. In the entire suburb, there are 1,080 mass graves in 1,080 communities. A few years ago, the mass graves in our Fuquan community were excavated, and nearly 1.5 million skeletons were excavated!"

"And then, the red pockmarks have been rampant like this?"

"The wicked have their own harvest, and after two or three years of rampant red pockmarks, the army of the "Brilliant Empire" entered the city. Red pockmarks are a thing of the past." Wen Wen said.

Li Rui was even more puzzled and asked, "In that case, why hasn't the ruler of the 'Brilliant Empire' changed the status quo here?"

"Changed, why hasn't it changed?" Wen Wen said, "Since the First Empire, the successive governors of Shanghai have indeed been reforming, but they have changed back and forth, and they have changed to what they are now. In the beginning, the common people moved back to the city, and everyone didn't want to fight anymore, so the city in Shanghai expanded rapidly. But every few decades, there will be chaos, and the city will be looted. Later, the officials above remembered the red pockmarks again, and asked the people in the city to move to the suburbs and build military fortresses, and slowly returned to the old ways. It's just that at that time, the common people still had some human rights, and they could usually go home and have a look."

"And then?" Li Rui asked.

Wen Wen glanced at him, "Why are you so curious, asking if you have fun."

"Oh, just talk about it, if you don't tell me, I'm so uncomfortable that I can't sleep."

"Later, the situation got worse and worse, as more and more factories were built in the suburbs, and the oppression of the people in the suburbs became more and more strict.

Gradually, the suburbs were divided into suburbs and suburbs, each with a wall between them. The suburbs have also been transformed into communities, and they are not allowed to interact with each other." Wen Wen sighed and said, "The situation has improved a lot in the past few years, if I leave my grandmother for a while, a guy like you from other communities will be caught and put in prison."

"It's so serious, huh?"

"Roar......" Wen Wen yawned and said, "Who's going to sleep, it's getting late, and I have to go to work tomorrow."

Seeing that Wen Wen had fallen asleep, Li Rui also went to sleep, since he didn't take advantage of it before, naturally he won't take advantage of it now.

The next morning, Li Rui returned to the Nong 2 tribe, Chen Mo happened to look for him, and regretfully told him that because Chen Mo's parents had asked her uncle to help her find a job in the factory, she had to go.

Li Rui didn't stop him when he heard it, as long as he did a good job, anyway, it was not far from the factory, and he could go to see Chen Mo whenever he wanted to.

When Chen Mo returned home, Li Rui went to the chicken farm.

The wild boar meat had not been eaten the night before, Li Rui brought some to the wolf and the wild boar, and the two guys were very obedient and had been patrolling outside the barbed wire.

In the next few days, Li Rui's chicken farm successively promulgated some factory policies and benefits. Workers perform their duties, take one day off a week, and have festival fees and gifts during the New Year's holidays, Li Rui is not stingy with employees, and employees also think that bosses like Li Rui can't find them with lanterns, and they work harder.

When promulgating the policy, Li Rui appointed Wang Mengyao's mother Tang Yumei as the team leader. He could see Tang Yumei's expression in the factory during this time, and Tang Yumei decided to deal with all the daily things of the chicken farm, so that Li Rui had more time to be busy with other things.

Now supplying 1,000 pieces to the hotel every week, Li Rui has increased the progress of producing wild mountain eggs, but there is no pressure. Li Rui thought that if the market response was good and the customers were satisfied, then there would definitely be other hotels looking for him to cooperate in the future, so the production of eggs must be increased.

In the same autumn and winter, the nourishing and good wild mountain chicken must also be very popular, so he also focuses on the wild mountain broiler chicken at the same time. In order to ensure the quality of the meat, Li Rui still adopts the stocking mode and tries not to interfere with it manually.

Walking back from the medicine field, he decided on one thing on the way, and that was to build a road.

This was not an ad hoc decision by him, but a deliberate one. Every time it rains, the road is muddy, and no one can walk at all, and the last time the corn was damaged and could not be sold, which has a lot to do with the inconvenience of transportation. Besides, if you want to get rich, you must first build roads, and since he wants to lead the big guys to get rich, then this road repair is necessary.

Li Rui's work plan is very clear, and the chicken farm and raw grass are taken care of, so he plans it well in winter, and when it thaws in spring, he will start work just in time, so as not to delay the work.

Road construction is a major event, in addition to funds, but also requires the cooperation of various construction teams and the approval of procedures. Li Rui didn't go home when he came back from the field, but went directly to Niu Dasheng's house.

This time Li Rui did not fail, Hongxia was not there, Niu Dasheng was sitting on the kang and tinkering with Shangguan Liangfa's mobile phone, seeing Li Rui coming, Niu Dasheng was very enthusiastic.

Li Rui talked about the idea of building the road, he thought that Niu Dasheng would be very happy after hearing it, but he didn't expect that Niu Dasheng didn't say a word after hearing it, just smoked a cigarette.

"Uncle, what's wrong, there's a problem?" Li Rui wondered.
