Chapter 170: Former Lovers

All the expenses for compulsory education in Zheguo, including teachers' salaries and benefits, are borne by the central government, and local governments at all levels do not bear the expenses for compulsory education.

However, in the occupied areas, Zheguo adopted the model of the Thorn State, and the former government of the Thorn State assigned the management of compulsory education to the local governments at all levels, and the local governments at all levels here were even detailed to the village level, that is, the expenditure on compulsory education in a small village was borne by the finances of the small village.

After the occupation of the territory of the Assassin State, the Zheguo people followed this model, the essence of which was to use the tax revenue of the occupied area to pay for compulsory education within the occupied area, and the Zheguo itself did not allocate funds to the occupied area, even if the compulsory education of the children of the Zheguo in the occupied area was the same model.

This model leads to great differences in teachers' salaries and benefits in different regions, and the same is teaching and educating people, just because they belong to different regions, their salaries and benefits are completely different, which leads to mutual comparisons between teachers, and teachers with low salaries and benefits will be resistant and go to the education department or the government to ask for a salary increase.

The content of the complaint written by the teachers of Taishui Town is that the salary and benefits of teachers in this town are much lower than those of the neighboring Hepo Town, and the Dongshan City Water Authority has also asked the Taishui Town Water Authority, and the Taishui Town Water Authority forwarded the reply of the Taishui Town Government:

Taishui Town is not a coastal area and has no coastal subsidies, while Hepo Town belongs to the coastal area and can be additionally paid coastal subsidies, so the wages in Hepo Town are higher than those in Taishui Town. The teachers in Taishui Town did not understand the policy, and they were simply making peace, and the Taishui Town Government ignored them.

After listening to Wang Jiahe and Gan Tianyi's reports, Ruan Jingtian was a little speechless. He did not agree with this educational management model of the former government of the Assassin State at all.

This model of compulsory education management in the country of Thorn leads to many children in the countryside not getting compulsory education at all, because the current situation of the country is that the countryside is very poor, and the people in the countryside can't even fill their stomachs, so where can they care about letting their children study?

In order to change the problem of rural children having difficulty in going to school, the former government of the country implemented the "Future Project" program, which allowed ordinary people and businessmen to donate money to build "Future Project" primary schools. It is not too difficult for ordinary people to donate money to build the school building of the "Future Project" primary school. But the follow-up teacher salary and benefits can't always rely on donations, right?

Some small villages could not afford teachers' salaries and benefits, so some Future Project primary schools fell into ruins, and some "Future Project" primary schools were converted to other money-making uses after they were completed.

As a result of this management model, only children in wealthy large cities receive high-quality compulsory education, children in small and medium-sized cities receive low-quality compulsory education, and children in poor areas do not receive compulsory education.

Nguyen Jingtian believes that the civilized process of a country is reflected in three indicators, one is the education of minors, the second is the pension for the elderly who have lost the ability to work, and the third is the medical treatment of the sick.

If a country's central finances can afford these three things for all its citizens, then the country's civility will be very high. The cohesion of the people is very strong, and the people have a strong patriotic sentiment.

If a country delegates these three things to the provinces, cities, towns, villages, and even individuals to bear their own burdens, then the country will always be in a state of instability, and may even make a country in a state of division.

As for the government's move to encourage ordinary people to donate money to build the "Future Project" primary school, Nguyen Jing Tien believes that such a move is definitely a slap in the face of the government, and such a move is a disgrace to a civilized country.

Under the circumstance that the central government of the country does not undertake the three basic guarantees of education, pension and medical care, ordinary people actually do not have the concept of the state, they only have the concept of provinces, cities, towns, and even villages.

The people hand over their tax revenues to the central government of the country. But the country's central government has not fulfilled these basic obligations to the people. This kind of asymmetry leads ordinary people to have a very weak concept of the state. It is very weak to emphasize the cohesion of the people only from the commanding heights of morality.

Reciprocity of rights and obligations is a key factor, and citizens fulfill their obligation to pay taxes to the central government of the country. However, the people do not enjoy the equal rights that should be given by the central government of the country. On the basis of this unequal relationship, talking about patriotic sentiments requires the people to have extremely high morality, but why does the central government of the country not try to fulfill its due responsibilities to enhance the patriotic sentiments of the people? This is much stronger than empty moral preaching.

The feelings and perceptions of the general population are very direct. Whichever level of government gives them benefits, they have a sense of belonging to that level of government.

Therefore, the ordinary people of the Assassin Kingdom often like to declare to the outside world, "I am from Liuyun Province, and I am from Dongshan City." I am a native of Taishui Town, ,...", and rarely say "I am from the Assassin Country".

For example, when the Assassins went to foreign countries to watch the game, they put up the slogan: "The people of Liuyun Province support...", while the audience in other countries was unified with slogans such as "Manguo" and "Maiguo".

As a result, some foreigners were very curious and asked, "Where is the country of Liuyun Province?" I have never heard of the country of Liuyun Province!"

The people of Liuyun Province explained: "Liuyun Province is not a country, but a province of Thorn Country. ”

Foreigners were even more surprised: "Do you Liuyun Province want to be independent of the Assassin Country?...

Before the invasion of the Assassins, compulsory education in the Assassin Kingdom was decentralized to all levels of local government, and pension and medical security were blank.

After the occupation of part of the territory, the Zheguo people implemented compulsory education for the children of the Zheguo in the occupied areas, and implemented a mechanism for the children of the Thorn country to voluntarily receive education, that is, the children of the Thorn country who wanted to go to school received education free of charge, and the children of the Thorn country who did not want to go to school were not reluctant.

However, the central government of Zheguo does not pay the salary and benefits of Zheguo teachers who teach in the Thorn Country, and the local government solves it on its own, which makes these Zheguo teachers very dissatisfied, and they go to the local government and the Ministry of War almost every day to ask for explanations.

Nguyen Ching Tien did not know why the people of Zheguo followed this model of education and management of the Assassin State, and he even suspected that the high-ranking officials of the Zheguo who introduced this policy at that time might have been spies of the Assassin State, as this policy clearly sowed the seeds of instability in the occupied territories. In the long run, Mr. Zheguo, who is far away in the country of Thorns, will do his best to find a way to return to the country of Zheguo. If all of the teachers of Zheguo leave the Assassin Country, will the rest of the Zheguo people be able to stay in the Assassin Country for a long time?

As a member of the water agency, Nguyen Ching Tien does not question the bizarre policy itself. The water agency's duty is to supervise public servants to observe discipline and perform their duties, so Ruan Jingtian will not say anything about whether the Taishui town government will raise teachers' salaries.

Wang Jiahe then reported several letters of complaint and report. Among them, there are things such as the principal taking a female teacher to open a room, and the teacher corporal punishment of students. However, there have been no complaints from parents about their daughters being coerced into having sex* with others. Ruan Jingtian was a little strange, and said secretly: Did the middle-aged woman in the hospital lie to me?

No one complained about similar things, and he couldn't just believe the words of the middle-aged woman, Ruan Jingtian felt that there was something strange about it.

The discipline of the education department of Taishui Town is the responsibility of the water organ of Taishui Town, and if the water organ of Dongshan City at the municipal level bypasses the water organ of Taishui Town and directly intervenes in the education department of Taishui Town, this does not conform to the procedure.

However, if the Taishui Township Water Authority is asked to investigate the sexual assault of the girl, and the matter is true, then Ruan Jingtian foresees the outcome: the principal, the vice principal, and one or two deputy heads of the town's education department will be suspended. As for other things, there will be no trace of them. Do officials protect each other, they are all officials in the same dynasty in Taishui Town, and they don't see anyone who looks up and looks down, who is embarrassed to rectify their own people, don't laugh at a hundred steps in fifty steps.

Ruan Jingtian wanted to dig out the story behind this incident, the reason was that he was very resentful of the harm to minors, combined with the crying of the middle-aged woman and the evasive rhetoric of Duan Weili in Taishui Town, Ruan Jingtian believed that there must be a lot of tricks behind this incident. He decided to make a big deal out of it. Let's see what kind of big fish are hidden in here.

It is inconvenient to directly investigate the education department of Taishui Town, so Ruan Jingtian must find another way.

He asked Wang Jiahe to call Deputy Director He Xinguo over.

"Xinguo, since I took office, I haven't been to the water agency below. You make arrangements to go to the Taishui Town Water Office tomorrow to have a look. Also, let the head of the fourth section, the deputy section leader and three or four backbones accompany him. Nguyen Ching Tien instructed Ho Tan Quoc that the Fourth Section of the Internal Investigation Division was responsible for discipline in the education system.

"Yes. Deputy Director of the Palace. He Xinguo replied loudly.

Ruan Jingtian asked Wang Jiahe and Gan Tianyi to sort out these complaint and report letters, and tomorrow they will take these letters to the water office in Taishui Town.

The phone on the desk rang.

"Old classmates. Are you free at noon? Let's have a meal together, and I'll surprise you. The voice of a junior high school classmate came from the phone.

Ruan Jingtian really didn't want to intersect with Gong Xiaomu's past, but always hiding would also arouse the suspicion of others, and at the same time, he was full of curiosity about the surprises that the Wind Volume Realm wanted to give.

After pondering for a while, Ruan Jingtian agreed to the request of the Wind Volume Realm, and the dining place was set at the Dongyue Hotel.

Thinking carefully about what kind of surprises the Wind Volume Realm would bring, Ruan Jingtian felt that he had to take precautions, he looked at his watch, it was about half past eleven in the morning, and the time he agreed with the Wind Volume Realm was at a quarter past twelve in the Fugui Hall of the Dongyue Hotel.

He thought about it for a while and decided to explore the truth in advance.

Ruan Jingtian immediately walked out of the water mechanism, came to a small hotel, quickly changed his appearance, and then rushed to the Dongyue Hotel, quietly entered the Fugui Hall, put a smell of gold in the wall under the window, and finally returned to the bar and booked a private room downstairs in the Fugui Hall. He entered the private room and ordered the attendants not to enter without being summoned. He closed the door to the private room and began to debug Wenjin.

At 10 twelve, Feng Liangjing and two other women walked into the Fugui Hall.

"Wind Volume, you said you were going to surprise me in a moment, what the hell is this?" asked a young and beautiful woman.

"Tong Naijiang, you should be patient. It's your first time in Higashiyama Castle, which is a very good city. The Wind Volume Realm laughed.

"Wu Zhilan, don't talk about the wind volume realm, you hurry up and sue me, I'm in a hurry. Tong Naijiang asked another person.

"Liang Realm, Tong Naijiang is so anxious to know what is going on, let's sue Tong Naijiang, right?" Wu Zhilan asked for the opinion of Feng Liang Realm.

"Okay, Tong Naijiang, you have to be mentally prepared! In a while, Gong Xiaomu from our class will come here and have dinner with us. Feng Liang Realm said.

"What!Gong Xiaomu is in Dongshan Castle?" Tong Najiang stood up in surprise.

"Nai Jiang, what happened to you and Gong Xiaomu two years ago?" Wu Zhilan asked.

"Well, nothing happened. Tong Naijiang said in a low voice.

The three of them were silent for a while, and Feng Liangjing said: "The current Gong Xiaomu is not what it used to be, he is the deputy head of the Dongshan City Water Agency. I heard that the number one person in charge of the Dongshan City Water Agency has been in the field, so Gong Xiaomu is actually the number one and powerful; in addition, Gong Xiaomu has also taken over Liang Gongzi's beautiful business, and according to my observation, Liang Gongzi is very jealous of Gong Xiaomu. Naijiang, only your eldest brother in your family may have a better development than Gong Xiaomu. ”

"Wind Volume Realm, Wu Zhilan, I don't want to eat here, I'm leaving. Tong Naijiang stood up and prepared to leave.

Wu Zhilan grabbed Tong Naijiang and said, "Naijiang, haven't you always wanted to find Gong Xiaomu? You can see him in a while, why do you want to leave?"

"Zhilan, I don't know why, I was suddenly afraid to see Gong Xiaomu, it was my family who was sorry for him back then. Tong Naijiang said in a low voice.

"Naijiang, it's been two years since the incident, and what kind of knots should be unraveled. Besides, you and Miyaya Takaki are classmates in junior high school, high school, and college, and even if the two of you can't end up walking together, they should be good friends. Wu Zhilan persuaded hard, and Tong Naijiang had no choice but to sit down again under the pull of Wu Zhilan.

Hearing this, Ruan Jingtian suddenly realized in his heart that Tong Naijiang was Gong Xiaomu's ex-lover, and he was still a childhood sweetheart. Ruan Jingtian was worried, Tong Naijiang must be very familiar with Gong Xiaomu, can he hide Tong Naijiang?

Ruan Jingtian thought carefully about what Tong Naijiang said, and felt that the breakup between Gong Xiaomu and Tong Naijiang two years ago should be the result of the opposition of Tong Naijiang's family. Which wealthy family in Zheguo is surnamed Tong?

The answer quickly appeared in Ruan Jingtian's brain, Tong Jinchuan, the commander of the Zheguo Navy, if Tong Naijiang is Tong Jinchuan's granddaughter or other relatives, then it is natural that the top wealthy Tong family does not look down on the third-rate small family Gong family.

Ruan Jingtian thinks a lot:

The Hu family has a deep friendship with the Zheguo Navy, so it can be inferred that the relationship between the Hu family and the Tong family should also be good. In Dongshan City, it is well known that the Hu family and Gong Xiaomu are in the same boat, so it is very likely that some people will blame the destruction of the Hu family on Gong Xiaomu. In addition, Huang Xirong, the third-generation leader of another heavyweight giant in the navy, was also planted in the hands of Gong Xiaomu. (To be continued......)
