Chapter 643 Sweet Burden

There is no end to the changes in the whole country. People will naturally produce a lot of new cognitions in the new environment. In the past, the common people felt that leaving their hometowns was a punishment. Now, they gradually don’t think so. Going to other places, There is also warmth and money.

Therefore, the number of northerners who participated in the embankment construction project in Shannan Road this year has increased by about [-]% compared to last year. Among them, there are also many Hu people who have become more sinicized. Under the propaganda of the cultural troupe, they also know how to make money , to give the family a better life.

And the more people gather here, the better the business will be for all kinds of low-end food and snack stalls in Jiuyuan County. Now, the people in Jinan and Zhongxiang counties have fully adopted the development model of Jiuyuan County, which belongs to them Small stalls, even shops, have already opened in Jiangling City, which is gradually taking shape. Three counties and more than [-] households can barely manage the local business. In the future, if they want to expand to other places, these If the industry reaches the whole country, more people are needed to join in.

However, at this time, Sun Xiangfu was already one step ahead of them and began to think about the problems he would face in the future.

In Jiuyuan County, in the civil studies class, after Sun Xiangfu taught a mushroom planting class that is commonly eaten in winter, he said, "Among you! Many people have come to the folk studies class for more than a year. For all kinds of The understanding of crops and planting knowledge has actually reached a certain level, I suggest! You can go to the Agricultural College in Shanyang to learn more advanced agricultural techniques and make progress in learning. People can also learn to become talented. In the future, after you have a more comprehensive and solid agricultural technology, you may be able to go to the Ministry of Agriculture as an official, or develop your own agricultural industry, and do greater things instead of nesting in In my own land, I will plant those twenty or thirty acres of land for the rest of my life."

"Do something bigger?" Many people asked in a daze, not knowing whether they were asking Sun Xiangfu or themselves.

"Yes, to do bigger things, you have to believe in your own abilities, and at the same time, take it as your duty to drive more people to become rich. If my prediction is not bad, many people will come to you in the next year."

"Looking for us?" The common people in the class asked in unison in surprise.

Sun Xiangfu nodded, glanced at everyone and said, "Yes, the imperial court is now developing projects in many places to promote the development of local people's livelihood, which requires more people who know planting technology to drive local people and teach people in remote places , take better care of the farmland and establish a new local atmosphere. You only need to go to three or five households to change a village, a dozen or twenty households can change a town, and a hundred households can change a county. Even those who did not go to Shanyang to study, still have the seeds to become the court to promote the development of more places.

As for our Jiuyuan County, as the population grows, the reserve land and homesteads are gradually not enough for all the newly grown population to use, and it must also enter a round of reform. Therefore, after you go back, you have to think about your own future. up. "

Many people suddenly felt a little dazed when they heard Sun Xiangfu say these words. They thought that their life in Jiuyuan County would continue like this forever, but when they thought of the children in their family and more and more people in the village Baby, they had to agree with what Sun Xiangfu said.

Jiuyuan County is nine pieces of land framed by levee. It is only so big. When there are 10 people, it can still be used by everyone, but it can be used by 20, 30, or even more people. when?Here, there is no condition for everyone to live here for generations, so someone must go out.

However, they were reluctant to go here. After all, this place is so beautiful to them. Soon, someone asked a question, "But, we really don't want to go to a strange place where we don't know our neighbors." ah!"

Sun Xiangfu smiled and looked at the man who spoke, "Well, I don't want to move to such a place, it should be said that everyone is unwilling to abandon the current environment and move to such a place.

Therefore, we have to use our brains to find a way, that is, to allow us to solve the problem of living space for future generations, and to keep us from being separated from our fellow villagers and neighbors. Best of all, it can also promote the development of the people in other places.

This is the after-school question I left for you today. If you have a good idea after you go back, you can write it down with a pen and paper. You can ask your own children about the words you can’t write. Give it to me, and put it directly in the county government's suggestion box. Our county magistrate will gather everyone's wisdom to solve this problem. "

It is absolutely impossible to say that Sun Xiangfu has no solution to this problem, but the purpose of Minxue is to open up the wisdom of the people, not only to let them know more about production knowledge, but also to let them know how to think about the future, sometimes It's not that people are not smart enough, it's just that people don't want to think about it, because when they think of something, those who talk about it won't listen, and as long as they think of a way, those who talk about it will listen carefully and analyze the feasibility, and everyone will If you are willing to use your brain to find a way, even stupid people can come up with some stupid ways, let alone many normal people who are not stupid.

After the north wind blows, hot pot has become the favorite of every household, and Sun’s family is no exception. Every afternoon when we go back from class, the hot pot soup at home is stewed deliciously. If it is fish head pot bottom, Sun’s First, a big bowl of soup will be served at the enjoyment meeting. Today’s dinner table is a bit lively. Yu Xiu’er, who has been sitting in the bedroom for a month, came out to eat in the dining room. The little baby Sun Kang was also brought out to meet people. According to the ranking, he is the grandson Xiangfu's fifth son is also the second son of the direct line. However, there has not been any knighthood, so Yu Xiu'er has been talking about Sun Xiangfu.

"Our baby Kang still likes the environment with many people. Look at his big eyes, looking all over the room!" Sun Xiangfu made a few funny expressions, and his son obviously didn't buy his account, and looked at the dinner table From the perspective of other people, there are quite a few people at the dinner table of the Sun family, one wife, four concubines, seven children, and a sister-in-law, which can completely surround a big Eight Immortals table, but few of them are eating seriously of.

Little guys like Sun Xun and Sun Ang who just learned to walk are all babbling and playing with the spoons and chopsticks on the table. Hongmei and Chuntao are busy just taking care of them.

Three-year-olds Sun Feng and Sun Wanyu never eat well, and they need Li Xiangdie and Yao Hongxiu with their big bellies to feed them slowly. Every time they eat, they have to praise them a few times and say a lot of good things before they are willing to eat. next bite.

The older Sun Jing and Sun Wanting can eat with chopsticks by themselves, but these two little guys are not the masters of An Sheng. The reason why Sun Xiangfu hastened to drink a bowl of soup when he returned home was because, if he didn't drink it, he would wait. When the two of them are on the table, it will be very difficult for him to get food on his lips. If his younger brother Sun Jing asks Sun Xiangfu to help him pick fish bones, then his sister Sun Wanting will definitely pick up a piece of fish with more spines and ask her father to help him pick. .

If Sun Jing thinks the food is too hot and asks Sun Xiangfu to cool it down for him, then Sun Wanting will definitely have a bowl of boiling soup ready for Sun Xiangfu to blow. Enough tossing about the table, Sun Xiangfu has no time to eat by himself.

Sometimes Yu Xiu'er would laugh at him for not establishing the majesty of a father and disciplining the children well, but Sun Xiangfu was happy with it, saying that it was a sweet burden and had no intention of changing it at all.

Sun Xiaomei is the only person at the dining table who can be cleaner. She will only help Sun Xiangfu when he is overwhelmed. Most of the time, she will occupy Sun Xiangfu's thoughts, because when Sun Xiangfu talks to his wives and concubines, most of them are When talking to her, it often involves some academic issues and serious matters. Sun Xiangfu feels that she now has at least the mathematics level of a high school student of later generations, and a second-year student of Agricultural Science University. level.

Today she didn't ask academic questions, but talked about business.

"Brother, I want to go to Jinan County after the new year."

"Go to Jinan County? Why?"

"The side of Jiuyuan County, with you here, has become saturated in all aspects. Jinan County is bigger and has a lot of reserve empty fields. Next year, I want to plant the vegetable varieties I planted this year on a large area. Planting, promotion to the outside world, and don’t you think it’s too crowded for the people of so many counties to come to Jiuyuan County to learn? I think that Jinan and Zhongxiang counties can also open people’s schools and teach their own counties The common people have some common sense about planting."

Hearing this, Sun Xiangfu looked at Sun Xiaomei in surprise, it turned out.The little girl who has always been willing to be a female schoolmaster quietly, not only loves to read, but also wants to apply the knowledge she has learned to practice, which makes Sun Xiangfu very pleased, nodded and said, "If, you think you The seeds planted this year have been able to grow stably, and the common people have the conditions to plant their own, so let’s do it! Director Zhangsun should be very happy for you to go to Jinan County to hold a civil education class.

How about this!I asked some officials from the Ministry of Agriculture who planted rice with me to give lectures in Jinan and Zhongxiang counties when they had nothing to do, and sometimes replaced you. Anyway, they used what I taught in Jiuyuan County’s civil studies class for more than a year. , I took notes, just let them go and start from the beginning, so that ordinary people who haven't learned everything can listen to it from the beginning. "

The knowledge involved in civil studies is not very advanced. Most of them are problems that ordinary people have to solve in their production and life. Sometimes, Sun Xiangfu even asks the senior students of the county school to come to the classroom to teach them how to read and write. Writing does not regulate any teaching content. It is just a means that Sun Xiangfu thought of to improve the knowledge of the existing adult people in this period when it is impossible to realize universal education. The energy of Jiuyuan County has really exploded. It's time for these children who are studying in real schools to enter the society.

"Then thank you, big brother. By the way, next spring, the grapes we planted in the Western Regions will be vined. We need to get some pennies to build grape trellises."

"I'll let Li Tai and Li Ke organize people to do it! By the way, have they been honest recently?"

"The learning is not bad, but the hands-on ability is very poor. I only like to move my mouth, but I don't like to use my hands, especially when it's cold."

"This is the problem they have developed from being pampered since childhood. If they don't actually do it, it will be difficult to appreciate the true meaning of it. If they think of ways to improve and progress, they will regress over time. In this way, you let them do more things by themselves. Move your hands, if you just move your mouth, next year let them teach folk studies to the people in the surrounding counties."

"That's it! I guess they can't wait for it! By the way, I heard that some of them will reach the age of joining the feudal clan next year. It is estimated that their studies will not reach the current level."

"Jiufan?" Suddenly hearing this word, Sun Xiangfu seemed to recall the content of some TV dramas in later generations. It seemed that Li Tai had been specially favored by Li Shimin, and he was not allowed to enfeoff him as a fan. Chang'an is fighting hard.

But now, the enfeoffment system of the Tang Dynasty has been completely reformed. Like the princes, the vassal kings do not confer land to Shiyi, but directly receive fixed titles and salaries. I don’t know how Li Shimin will arrange these princes who are over 16 years old.
