Chapter 390 Special Examination Cultural Invasion IV
"It's a bit difficult!" Three months later, Cao Xiong's pseudonym Xiahou Xiong sat on the hill outside the small village, looking at the more than fifty households in the small village, and couldn't help but sigh.
It is said that his mission is to subtly influence these villagers, let them know the goodness of the north, and then understand the unfairness of the four-people system to them in the south. Of course, the focus is mainly on those little brats.
But something that I thought was easy at first turned out to be a bit difficult when I got here.
Without him, the people here are almost all common people, with only a few untouchables from three or four families. Although the lives of all the common people are still a little tight, their families have enough food and money every year.
The common people did not seek wealth, but often just food and clothing. This situation was especially obvious in the late Han Dynasty, which was devastated by war and had just begun to enter the recovery stage.
Since others are already satisfied, how can we subtly influence them?
Not to mention, there is a reporting system here!
tnnd! No matter whoever dares to incite people’s dissatisfaction with the government or engage in behavior that harms the government, local residents can report it. Once verified, the reporter can receive certain merits.
As long as a pariah reports three people, he can be directly converted into a commoner. If a commoner reports ten people, he can go directly to receive training and the passing score standard will be lowered. If he directly reports twenty people, he can even become a citizen directly.
It has been more than five years since the founding of the Republic of China. This policy has directly uncovered countless details in the north. For the remaining details, the scope of action has been passively reduced, and the things that can be done have also been greatly reduced.
"Xiong Zai, aren't you going to the fields today?" Ergouzi, a passing villager, shouted.
"Don't even look at what I'm growing, can soybeans and rice be the same?" Xiahou Xiong said angrily.
"That's true, but why do you plant soybeans instead of rice?" Ergouzi didn't understand.
"What else can you do? The five acres of land I was allocated are all used for farming. If you don't plant soybeans for a few seasons and just plant rice directly, are you deliberately trying to make me unable to bear too much millet?" Xiahou Xiong raised his voice.
Raise your hands.
"Oh, can soybeans also fertilize the fields?" Ergouzi's eyes lit up.
"Of course, I thought I was well-off and well-off back in the north, and I had read some books on this subject. But my family has fallen into decline, and I can't find the shame to work, so I can't just go south and try my luck?" Xia Houxiong said with emotion.
Speaking of.
"Then tell me about this fertile soybean field, okay?" Ergouzi said with great interest.
"It doesn't matter, as long as it doesn't delay your going to the field, it doesn't hurt to talk about it!" Xiahou Xiong smiled.
"Ah! By the way, my father is still waiting for me to go to the fields! Let's not talk about it for now. I will come over to ask for advice in the evening. As for your dinner, how about our family provides it?" Ergouzi said a little panicked.
"There must be fish, otherwise I won't do it." Xiahou Xiong waved his hand and said.
"No problem, at least three meat dishes!" Ergouzi smiled, and then hurriedly ran towards the field.
"Perhaps, using technology to attract their attention and then hiding what you want to say in this knowledge is also a good choice?" Xiahou Xiong looked at Ergou's background, his eyes lit up, and he muttered secretly.
At the same time, a certain countryside in Kuaiji County.
"Nongsheng, why are all the messy things planted on the five acres of land you were assigned?" The old village chief looked at the land in front of him in confusion.
"Isn't that strange?" The farmer pointed to his fields, "Fruit trees are planted on the edges of the fields. Some medicinal materials that may be urgently needed by the Republic in the near future are planted in the fields, and some cotton, soybeans, etc. are also planted in the rest.
. Once these things grow, the income is no less than that of rice and corn.
Anyway, the Republic allows money to be used to pay rent. If I sell these things then, maybe after paying the rent, I will still have a lot of profit!"
"But except for herbs and soybeans, it seems that it will take several years for the other items to be profitable. Can't we delay paying the rent?" the village chief said worriedly.
"You can rest assured that the seeds inside, except for soybeans and herbs, were all brought by me in the north. There is a special agricultural research institute there that studies the cultivation of this kind of seeds and the shortening of the crop cultivation cycle.
It can be said that as long as I take good care of it, these fruits will be almost ready to bear fruit by the middle of next year. And other messy harvests will not be too late, at least one or two years earlier than before.
Those soybeans and herbs are enough if you think about it." The farmer said with a simple smile.
"Are these soybeans not worth much? And this medicinal material, how do you know it can earn enough tax for your five acres of land?" the village chief asked curiously.
"This is mainly the news I heard. Wasn't there news before? It is said that the Republic plans to further immigrate to Yizhou. In the second half of this year, at least 500,000 residents will be moved to Yizhou.
Village chief, please think about it: these people left their homes and moved to Yizhou, but they have not adapted to the miasma there. How can their health be cured? The artemisia annua and isatis root I planted are all good at clearing away heat and detoxifying, and they can also be used for treatment.
The medicine for miasma, if you count the days, it will be mature around the time of official relocation..." The farmer stopped talking in the middle of the sentence, leaving the rest to the old village chief's brain.
"I see! This may be a good idea, but what if we lose money?" The village chief was still worried.
"Except for the people who sell these two medicines to immigrants, they are still relatively common medicines. So even if you can't make a lot of money, at least there will be no problem with this year's taxes. It's just tomorrow's food expenses. I still hope that the village chief will
Lend me some..." the farmer said a little embarrassed.
"Come on, let's just focus on the guidance you have given to the villagers in the past three months, not to mention next year's food expenses, even if I treat you as a land lord, it will be fine!" the village chief replied immediately with a smile.
"Actually, it's nothing. I just learned some knowledge in this area, so when I saw that everyone was not farming very rationally, I just nagged a little bit." The farmer also felt embarrassed.
"What's yours is yours. Speaking of selecting Linong next year, I plan to recommend you. If you are selected by then, you can directly become a citizen!" The village chief immediately gave a surprise.
"Seriously? But I just moved here this year. Isn't it too early to become a linong next year?" the farmer said a little embarrassed.
"The Republic welcomes intellectuals. Since you have immigrated here and have this talent, you should obtain a status consistent with your talent. This is also the basis for the strength of the Republic. His Majesty the President has long ago
This is the key point." The village chief said a little respectfully.
"This guy is definitely a die-hard loyalist to the Republic, so be careful in the future!" Nong Sheng muttered secretly.
As time went by, many students who lurked in the countryside exposed themselves unintentionally, and some were reported. More people were forced to terminate their exams, but there were still five or six people who were maintaining the situation.
Moreover, as time went by, it gradually gained the respect and trust of the local people.
With their propaganda in the teaching process, many people even had a preliminary impression of the north:
It was a country with very advanced technology, and the people there seemed to have a pretty good life!
