"Lao Feng, will you go to the street tomorrow?!"

On the way home, a worker walked quickly to Feng Shi's side and said loudly.

"Go! Of course I have to go, but it just so happened that it wasn't my turn to take a break this time. ”

When Feng Shi heard this, he shouted loudly.

The so-called parade in the streets is naturally not to wander around, but to respond to the call of the new country, where workers, students, and peasants ......, and everything unites to shout out the direction of the development of the new country, so as to awaken the hearts of those who are insensitive to it.

In the end, the new country has just been born, and some things that are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, old, and decaying, although they have been removed on the surface, in the depths of many people's hearts, some things are still deeply rooted.

In order to destroy this remnant of decay, this is the matter of parade in the streets.

At the beginning of this matter, the enthusiasm of everyone in the new country was not high.

But with the passage of time, the opening of night schools, the lectures of Taoist officials day and night, plus life is indeed getting better day by day, and changes can be seen, in this case, the fire in the hearts of many people is gradually ignited, coupled with the power of habit.

Therefore, this one thing, from the beginning of the spark, in a short period of time, converged into a prairie fire.

Not only that, but because of this activity, the enthusiasm of the workers, the students, and the farmers' enthusiasm for work were also ignited.

As for the reason, it is naturally because of such activities, which gives them a strong sense of participating in the construction and change of the country, and makes them deeply realize that they are a part of the country, not a dispensable grass, but a grass people.

Feng Shi's home is in the factory, and the factory is uniformly distributed, although everyone calls him Lao Feng, but in fact, Lao Feng is not old, only in his early twenties, but his face is relatively old, at a glance, it looks like he is in his thirties and forties, and everyone calls him that.

Because he has not yet married a wife, he only has a house of 20 square meters, but he lives alone, and this area is already very spacious.

After all, eating and drinking are in the canteen, as for the thatched house, it is a collective public thatched house, and the house is only used for living, so it is naturally not crowded.

When he returned home, it was not yet dark, so he took advantage of the light of day to take out a stack of paper tied with twine, and began to try to memorize the words on it.

When he was in night school, he studied hard, had leisure on weekdays, and worked overtime to study, but because the time was too short and he was a little older, he was very hard to learn, or rather, it was hard and painful.

Often, I finally wrote down things, but when I fell asleep, I forgot them, and my head was always empty.

Of course, this is also the norm for those of them who start learning halfway.

However, he did not give up, and it is true that he is good to be a worker now, but when he reads the newspapers of the outside world and knows all the things that are happening in many places, he has a strong desire to go out and see.

And the first step to doing this is literacy.

After literacy, if the production performance is good, you can go to further study and become a technician, the route of the technician is divided into low, medium and high three levels, if you reach the advanced, you can participate in engineer training, learn well, you can become an engineer.

If it comes to this point, there will be no need to make iron in a factory, but the imperial court will fund it and let it guide production all over the country.

Otherwise, in this era, people are not allowed to go out casually, even if they are visiting relatives and friends, if they exceed the range of a hundred miles in the place, they must be allowed to be approved by the relevant local departments, and they must return within the specified time.

The sky was getting dark, and the paper was a dull yellow straw paper, very rough, with many spots, and undoubtedly, it was the worst paper, not only not good-looking, but also had a pungent smell.

But Feng Shi was very satisfied.

Thanks to Xinguo, several paper mills have been built in a row, and large-scale papermaking is only limited by technology, or in other words, in order to eradicate illiteracy in the whole country more quickly, the cost of paper and production efficiency are minimized.

The papermaking technology of the old dynasty, if you want to make a batch of good paper, it will take half a year.

In the new country, if you make good paper, it only takes a month, which is of course not comparable with the modern papermaking only takes a few hours, but considering this era, the lack of chemical reagents, the lack of machine power, even the new country is still in the situation of pushing the machine with water power, thirty days, is already a magic speed.

As for the straw paper, because the fermentation and pulping do not need to be so thorough, and the filtration does not need to be so filtered, and it is mixed with the by-products produced during ironmaking, but the time is pressed to ten days.

A batch of paper in ten days, and several large factories, day and night, this is in a short period of time, so that some people who are interested in learning can also afford to use paper.

Regarding the matter of paper, Feng Shi also heard the teacher in the night school say that it was deeper, but he didn't understand.

As for good paper, it is currently only dedicated to the official affairs of the imperial court, and it is said that when the follow-up factories are built more, the output will come up, and the good paper will also be civilian, but that will be at least a few years later.

In the darkening skylight, Feng Shi was gesturing on the paper while chanting in a whisper, deepening his memory.

The structure of these characters is very simple, but it is a simplified Chinese character created by General Yingtian in order to facilitate the eradication of illiteracy, and its learning difficulty is much lower than that of the previous traditional Chinese characters.

And on top of the text, there is also pinyin, that is, Feng Shi can't use these now.

It wasn't until the sky was so dark that it was completely invisible, and Feng Shi lit an oil lamp, which burned the coal tar extracted from the dry distillation of coal, which was also a by-product of ironmaking.

Because it is produced in the factory, there is no transportation cost, and it is a small benefit to exchange the merit required for exchange, which is lower than the outside.

But despite this, Feng Shi is still very economical.

The coal tar burned, emitting a pungent smell, and his eyes were a little flowery from the oil smoke, but he didn't care.

It wasn't until late at night that Feng Shi fell asleep.

When it was dawn, holding a basin by the river, after a simple wash, it was far from the time to gather in the street, Feng Shi had already arrived at the meeting point, and although he came very early, there were many people who came earlier than him.

An individual, who is in high spirits at the moment, but is waiting peacefully, and no one has the idea of starting early.

Because this activity, from the beginning to the end, is reported, a quarter and a half in advance, it is just a quarter and a half in advance, if it is too much in advance, it will be disciplined, it is unorganized and undisciplined, not only to be criticized, but also to be reviewed in public.
