Chapter 41: Combining both civil and military skills is the kingly way
After hearing this, Wang Siliang, who was originally trying to speak, couldn't help but touch his head awkwardly, looking embarrassed. Yes, he could hardly even eat, especially this year's severe drought, and the villagers' savings over the years were all gone. If the next year is still a year of disaster, life would really not be able to survive!
Then again, although Anhui is located in Jiangnan and rice is ripe twice a year, the yield is limited after all, and its ability to resist disasters is poor. Rather than this, it is better to plant some high-yield miscellaneous grains. No matter how hard it is to eat, it is always better than to endure hunger. Not to mention digging grass roots and eating tree bark, or even eating Guanyin soil, that is really miserable!
After thinking through these, he suddenly realized that at present, their most critical task is to help poor farmers eat a full meal, and at the same time, they also subtly instill revolutionary concepts. The effect of doing this is definitely more effective than vernacular. It is a practice of combining theory with practice, and the president highly praised this practice.
After giving Wang Siliang instructions, Wang Jin pulled Liu Wendian, who was excited, and took him to the nearby small mound. The autumn wind was cool, with a faint smell of harvest. The fallen leaves on the ground gradually increased, and the leaves on the trees gradually began to wither. Although the weather was still hot, the traces of late autumn became more and more obvious.
Pointing to the bare-butt children who were having fun everywhere in the fields, Wang Jin said lightly: "Shuya, your task is to teach these children simple Western learning and other basic knowledge so that they can have a higher starting point than their parents when they grow up!"
Liu Wendian was shocked and looked at the bare-butt children who were having fun in the fields, with a confused and wry smile on his face. Although he knew about his mission the day before yesterday, when the mission came, he was still a little excited and nervous. More, he felt that his shoulders sank, as if he was carrying a heavy burden!
"Can I do this?" He was still a little unconfident.
"No problem. Think about the situation when you were in elementary school, just follow it." Wang Jin smiled slightly, encouraged it first, then turned his face upright, and warned seriously: "You'd better be mentally prepared and be more patient. These mud monkeys are wild. You must adapt to this work as soon as possible. It's best to have certain results in a short period of time, so that our other work can be carried out. Remember, whether this rural pilot reform can achieve the expected success, your task is crucial!"
Liu Wendian looked shaking when he heard this, and at the same time, a raging flame ignited in his heart, and a sense of pride that he was valued naturally arose. He couldn't help but stand up straight, and his eyes looked at Wang Jin were full of firmness and confidence, and said, "Don't worry, Brother Wang, I will definitely not disappoint you!"
As the saying goes, "A gentleman dies for his confidant." Wang Jin can value a student like him who has just graduated from school, and even sends people hundreds of miles to invite him. It is impossible for him to be moved by a little touched. Especially after joining their small revolutionary group for a few days, how can he not be moved by such an important task?
At this time, he felt that the distance between Wang Jin and Anqing Xinguanghui was much closer, and some words were not to be hidden. A refreshing autumn wind blew, and his robe danced with the wind, pressing against the corner of the robe that was lifted. He asked curiously: "Brother Wang, have you paid a lot of money to find a way out for the fellow villagers? Why do you still have to..." The following words were not said, but the meaning was clearer.
"Haha, you're asking this question!" Wang Jin chuckled, waved his hand to signal Wang Siliang and others to come up, pointing to the bare-butt children who were having fun everywhere in the fields, and said with a heavy face: "The traditions of the Chinese people for thousands of years are inferior, but only those who have high reading have already penetrated into the bone marrow of the Chinese people."
The comrades nodded and agreed. If they had not had their strong expectations for their studies and their family to shine, they would not have gathered together now. They had already recommended others, although the family conditions were very different, I think the villagers' ideas were similar to their parents.
"Haha, I believe you can also guess that as long as you can have a full meal, the most important thing for the villagers is the education of their younger generations. Because they know that if their children do not study or learn a craft and cannot escape from the constraints of the land, they will be kept in their own or rented land for the rest of their lives. The peace year is better, as long as they are willing to work hard, they will not starve to death, but is it now a peace year?"
Wang Jin's words made the comrades' thoughts surge. When they think of themselves, and when they think about the future of the children in the fields, their expressions became solemn involuntarily. They clenched their fists and seemed to have something in their eyes.
"Brother Wang, why is it me? Brother Siliang and Brother Fengfan are not bad at all?" Liu Wendian was still a little confused. The past two days of getting along, he found that the comrades in the Anqing New Restoration Association had a certain cultural foundation. Especially Wang Siliang and Wu Fengfan, although their knowledge was a little worse than him, he was incomparable to social experience.
Some simple basic Western learning and other elementary knowledge are not necessary to do it yourself!
"Haha, they are different from you." Wang Jin laughed, and saw Liu Wendian with confusion on his face, and explained tirelessly: "Apart from you, most of them have received certain military training, but the degree is different. They all have other tasks. I am going to use them as the backbone to form a capable armed force to ensure our safety and revolutionary results!"
"Is this necessary?" Liu Wendian disagreed. In his opinion, the public security outside the city is pretty good. Teaching and educating people and buying land to help others are great good deeds. How could anyone make trouble?
Wang Jin shook his head, feeling helpless about this guy's nerd spirit. Perhaps this temperament is more suitable for studying and teaching and educating people. No wonder this guy in his previous life would be in the education world in the future and wasted his dazzling qualifications.
If Lao Jiang had the qualifications of him, he would not have encountered such great resistance in his later years of power.
"Shuya, you still don't have enough experience. Thinking things too simple with some people." After patting Liu Wendian on the shoulder, Wang Jin warned seriously: "You must not relax your vigilance. The stubborn people in the countryside are beyond your expectations, and you should not overestimate their moral bottom line!"
Liu Wendian nodded in confusion. Wang Jin ignored him, smiled and winked with Wang Siliang, waved his hand and said, "Let's go back and see the gun I brought you..."
