"We're here this time, there's one more thing." Principal Bai's face was slightly gloomy, and there was a little sadness between his eyebrows, "Now there are many parents who know that their doll is not yet 16 years old, but they falsely report their age and send the doll to work. ”

"I went to the office of the development zone to find Defu and their mayor, but they didn't take it seriously at all."

As he spoke, Principal Bai was a little excited: "Let the dolls study, is that for their future, the government has set this sixteen-year-old age limit, isn't it afraid that the dolls who have not reached the age are too young and have no ability to distinguish between right and wrong, and it is easy to make mistakes when they enter the society now!" ”

"When those dolls are old, they should stay in school and study hard." Principal Bai was more excited.

"Principal Bai, don't get excited." Wang Chong hurriedly spoke out to persuade him: "If you go to do this matter, you will definitely not be able to do it." ”

"Why can't I do it?" Principal Bai was still a little unhappy and unconvinced, of course, not for Wang Chong, but for this matter.

After reading the original book from God's perspective, Wang Chong can certainly understand Teacher Bai's feelings: "This matter, it is useless for you to go to those parents, if you can persuade them, how can they lie about the age of the dolls and send them to work!" ”

Teacher Bai was stunned for a moment, then slapped his thigh, shook his head and sighed.

"Hey!"

His face was full of helplessness.

"I know that too, but since I, as their teacher, have seen this situation, I can't ignore it!" For this, Mr. Bai was heartbroken.

"A lot of things are like this, you have to do it when you know you can't do it!" Wang nodded and said, but then his voice suddenly changed: "The work to be done on the parents' side, this matter, in the final analysis, is still out of the policy." ”

"If you want to solve this problem, you have to start with policy."

"Start with policy?" Principal Bai looked at Wang Chong, then raised his hand and said helplessly: "It's useless, I've been running several times over there in the office of the Development Zone, Defu, and the District Mayor Wang of the Development Zone, they all agree with this matter." ”

"Especially Defu, what did you tell me that even if these dolls go to society and earn money, if they want to learn in the future, they can still learn."

"If you really go to the society and see the world of flowers, those dolls are so young, where can they still accept their hearts, and where do they still have any heart to learn to read."

Teacher Bai said indignantly, Guo Minhang next to him also had a solemn face, but because he had only been here for a long time, he didn't have a thorough understanding of the situation here, so he just sat quietly next to Principal Bai and Wang Chong and listened to the conversation without interjecting.

Wang Zhong said solemnly: "Although it is okay to read at any time, there is a world of difference between a teenage doll who is reading now and will be reading in the future." ”

"That's it!" Teacher Bai said thoughtfully, and Guo Minhang couldn't help nodding.

"For those of us who are the dolls of the Zhuang family, reading is the fairest and easiest way to change our fate."

Wang Chong's words, the two of them thought so.

If this is placed in ancient society, the people at the bottom, let alone change their fate, and even the opportunity to study is very rare.

Those children of the poor family in the mouths of the scholars, even if they were down for a while, their ancestors were also rich, but they were just in the middle of the family, but even if they were in the middle of the family, it was relative.

Where is it now, nine-year compulsory education, high school and college, and the door is open to the whole society.

"This matter must be solved from the root! You can't just rely on lobbying the parents of those dolls, only from the roots, from the policy, it is possible. ”

"The export of labor to Fujian Province is a strategic decision jointly made by the two provinces, and it is also one of the poverty alleviation measures.

Principal Bai said helplessly.

Wang Chong said: "The policy will naturally not stop, at this point in time, going out to work, not tired, but also making money, can indeed solve the temporary needs of the villagers." ”

In order to hang the village, prepare the land, build a house, many villagers have borrowed money from the credit cooperative, the family owes foreign debts, and now go to Fujian Province to work, and the government on both sides to help the bottom, do not have to worry about being cheated, it is indeed a good way to make money.

"And what do you mean?" Principal Bai frowned, looked at Wang Zhong suspiciously, and asked.

Wang Zhong smiled and said: "This is still to find someone from the education system, the county education bureau can't do it, then go to the district to find someone, if the district can't do it, then go to the province, as long as the education bureau issues a document, won't this matter be solved!" ”

"The Education Bureau's documents?"

Principal Bai explained: "This matter is not so simple, I went to the development zone, the county, and the police station have asked, our side, are all immigrants, plus these years to catch the superborn strictly, we have a lot of dolls here, not even a birth certificate, are in demand, only to go to the police station to open a household registration certificate, the age of the students, we are teachers, although we know it in our hearts, but the parents of the students insist that the age of the students has reached the standard, even the police station, there is no way." ”

"Even if the Education Bureau really issues the documents, it won't be of much use!"

This is a difficult thing to define, there is no birth certificate, the age of the dolls, it is not all based on the parents' mouth, the parents say how much, the police station will register how much, the police station does not have so many manpower, send people down to investigate one by one to verify the actual age of the dolls.

"Principal Bai, don't worry!" Wang Chong smiled and said: "On the premise that there is no birth certificate, the age of the dolls is indeed determined by the parents. ”

"But we're not targeting the age of the dolls, let's think differently."

"A different way of thinking?" Principal Bai and Guo Minhang glanced at each other, and they both saw the incomprehension in each other's eyes.

"What's the way of thinking?" Principal Bai hurriedly asked Wang Chong with an expectant face.

Wang Chongdao: "Rejuvenating the country through science and education is one of China's important national policies, and nine-year compulsory education is a fundamental plan for our country to realize the construction of the four modernizations. ”

"The parents of our dolls here are basically from Zhuang families, ordinary people, and they don't have any vision, and sometimes they are inevitably blinded by the immediate interests, but the people in the education department, who must be everyone, know the importance of education to children and our country."

"We can't convince those parents, so let the Education Bureau give them a death order and come up with a policy, let's be flexible, and don't limit the age of the dolls to go out to work, but can we make a fuss about the nine-year compulsory education!"

Principal Bai's eyes lit up, but then the light that had just risen quickly dimmed: "If only it were that easy!" ”

"Our school only has a primary school, and now there are a lot of dolls, who have not even finished primary school, and they have dropped out of school and been sent to work by their parents, let alone junior high school."

Although Principal Bai didn't want to admit it, this was indeed the most real situation at the moment.

"That's not something we should be thinking about." Wang Chong shook his head, still smiling and said, "What we can do is to report the situation to our Xihaigu education system, and we can also give suggestions that we think are feasible, but whether to adopt them or not is not something we can decide." ”

"Principal Bai, you are just the principal of a rural primary school, Teacher Guo is just a volunteer teacher, and I am just an ordinary person, we can't change the policy, we can only suggest, we can only reflect the situation we know to the above."

I hate to admit it, but that's the reality.

Teacher Bai is still a little unwilling: "Is there really no other way?" ”

Wang Chong shook his head and said: "Actually, it's not completely impossible, the reason why the parents of the dolls send the dolls to work is because it costs money to study, and part-time jobs can earn money." ”

"Another point, we have to admit that there are many children who are really not suitable for studying, like the kind of repeating a grade for three or four years, a primary school for more than ten years, they don't want to study, but they are not suitable, they also work hard and work hard, but they really can't learn."

"Although there are not many students like this, there are a few, and their parents don't want them to continue their studies and send them to work to earn money, which I think is understandable."

"But if you are too young, your mind is not mature enough, and you have not yet established a correct social outlook and values, and you are sent out by your parents to work, it is true that you are likely to go astray in the future because of premature contact with society."

"I know what you're talking about." Principal Bai was a little anxious: "Tell me your method." ”

"Don't these parents want their children to earn money, if the amount of our scholarship fund is large enough, the coverage of the examination reward is wider, for example, if the junior high school is admitted to the county No. 1 middle school, if the junior high school is admitted to the top class, we will give rewards, if the college entrance examination is good, admitted to the undergraduate, admitted to the heavy capital, our reward is greater, stimulate and stimulate them, are those parents not tempted?"

"The dolls have a future and can earn money, if there is such a good thing, I am definitely willing to let my children study." Guo Minhang said thoughtfully, but then his voice changed, and he became a little hesitant, glanced at Wang Chong, and said cautiously: "It's just that if that's the case, will it be a little tasteless?" ”

Principal Bai also had a tangled look on his face.

"No matter what the process is, as long as the goal can be achieved, some details, you don't have to think too much."

"And if this is the case, to a certain extent, it can indeed stimulate the enthusiasm of the dolls to read, can stimulate their self-motivation, and can make their parents willingly send them to continue reading."

"But the bursary fund and the income of the kiln factory is linked, now the business life of the kiln factory, the funds in the bursary fund account are also sufficient, but if the business of the kiln factory deteriorates one day, the income declines, the financial problem of the bursary fund, may not be guaranteed."

"And this method is indeed like what Mr. Guo said, a little tasteless, and it is okay to use it temporarily, but the children's current worldview and values are not yet mature, if they really keep doing this, maybe it will have a bad impact on the children."

"If you encounter a few paranoid parents again, regardless of the consequences, they force their children to study and study without any methods, just to get that reward, maybe, to some extent, it will backfire."

Wang Zhong feels that this is not unfounded, now the children are still young, if at this time, if they are taught everything to be like money, then these children are likely to lose a lot of very meaningful things in the future, and become mercenary, only money first.

Maybe they would have had all kinds of dreams, such as becoming astronauts, pilots, soldiers, scientists, teachers, doctors, lawyers, etc.

Wang Chong's words also made Principal Bai and Teacher Guo fall into deep thought.

Children at these ages are like a blank sheet of paper, influenced by their parents, taught by their teachers, and changed by the environment in which they live, and no one can say what they will grow into in the future.

Principal Bai and Teacher Guo sat at Wang Chong's house for more than an hour, and the two sides talked a lot about the scholarship fund and the children's schooling, although many words were useless.

But Principal Bai, who left Wang Chong's house, made a decision after thinking about it all night.

When class was held the next day, Principal Bai asked Mr. Guo to help substitute the teacher, and he himself went to the county and went to the Education Bureau.

For the next period of time, Principal Bai went to the county almost every day, and all the things about teaching the dolls were handed over to the young Teacher Guo.

A week later, Principal Bai happily approached Wang Chong and told him of the new document issued by the Education Bureau, but all those within the scope of nine-year compulsory education, regardless of age, whether they are over 16 years old, are not allowed to drop out of school to work, and the education system will work with all schools and relevant personnel in charge of foreign work in the Economic Development Zone Office to strictly review the list of people who have signed up to work in Fujian Province.

Principal Bai was overjoyed.

On the first day that this document arrived in the village, the bursary fund also announced the latest decision, but anyone who came to Yuquan Yingjiaozhuang, as long as the doll in the family can be admitted to the county No. 1 middle school, one person will be rewarded with 2,000 yuan at a time, but anyone who is admitted to the key class of the county high school will be rewarded with 3,000 yuan at a time, but anyone who is admitted to the junior college will be rewarded with 5,000 yuan at a time, and those who are admitted to the undergraduate program will be rewarded with 8,000 yuan, and if they are admitted to a key university like 985211, one person will be rewarded with 10,000 yuan at a time, cash.

In addition to these basic rewards, there are also awards for merit in grades, awards for significant progress, prizes, cash, and various school supplies for each semester.

But these have prerequisites, primary school only school supplies rewards, pencil stationery boxes or something, only after entering junior high school, to the county to go to school, and the county children to compete together, there are cash rewards.

The villagers, who were still a little complaining about the decision of the Education Bureau, immediately changed their attitudes after learning the news released by the Shanhai Scholarship Fund, and urged their children to go to school, often running to school, asking how their dolls' grades were.

Suddenly, the atmosphere in Principal Bai's school suddenly improved.
