Chapter 232: Today is a good day
New Year's Eve is a moment of special significance for everyone on this continent. The power of tradition is always so irresistible. Whether it is a noble and noble person or a commoner struggling in the mud, when this day comes, he will always try to dress up beautifully and eat better. If the family can be reunited, it will be a great joy.
Children like to celebrate the New Year because they have new clothes to wear during the New Year and can eat something that is difficult to eat in ordinary times. Adults are also looking forward to the New Year because there are only a few days. They can sit down easily and hold wine glasses to completely relax themselves and no longer think about the ups and downs of this year. Because the smiling faces of relatives are enough to make them forget all their worries in these few days.
Compared to many places, Taiping City, which seems very desolate, is undoubtedly very happy. After spending the initial difficult years, they can indeed be regarded as a little rich man. The money and food from Shayang County allow them to spend this winter and next spring with peace of mind. Therefore, they attach great importance to the first Spring Festival they came here, whether it is Qin Feng or the brothers from the Death Camp below.
Of course, it is impossible to decorate the lights and colors. This seems too wasteful, but eating is not to be careless. The wild dogs brought more than a hundred brothers and even went into the deep mountains. They found that many beasts had been dug and carried back all the big or small wild game for Taiping City. Even these guys were skinny and bony. In the words of wild dogs, no matter how small the legs of mosquitoes are, they are still meat! During the Chinese New Year, how can they be seen with meat?
The wild dog's move was naturally welcomed by everyone in Taiping City, especially those people who had just arrived here. It was already a very satisfying thing for them to have enough food. Unexpectedly, they could still eat meat now.
The people of Taiping City are now expanding rapidly. Even Qin Feng did not expect that his way of giving An family expenses would allow him to earn a good reputation while also allowing a large number of people who were still working hard outside Shayang County to come here. In less than a month, Taiping City had gathered more than 20,000 people. Of course, there were also many elderly, weak, women and children here.
There are actually different voices in Taiping City for accepting these elderly, weak women and children. For Taiping City now, almost all the work is hard work, women, children, and elderly people cannot do this, but it is a considerable pressure for the food on the mountain. Although there are a lot of stocks now, Taiping City does not have a stable source, and basically eats one less. It is precisely based on this point that the mountain still implements a strict supply system, and each person is quantitative every day, even the old brothers in the Death Camp are still the same.
But Qin Feng made the decision to accept it. This is not only a matter of benevolence, righteousness and morality, but also a matter of making these young and strong people return home. If you want people to work with peace of mind and take root here in the future, you must return home and make them feel that Taiping City is a place to rely on. When it is not useful, you will greet people with a smile, and when it is useless, you will kick people away.
The elderly and women can be assigned to the kitchen. Now there are tens of thousands of people in the mountains, and they implement unified supply. Cooking and boiling water every day requires a lot of people. They can do these tasks and can also allow those who originally did these tasks to join the army of garrisons. Even if it is spring tomorrow, they can dig wild vegetables and pick wild fruits.
As for the children, there is indeed nothing suitable for them to do, but they can't be idle either. Isn't Wang Yueyao okay now? It's great that collecting these children and letting her teach these children to read and read can make the sound of reading sounds sound on the mountain. Moreover, he is also a drunken man who is not drunk.
These dolls have not yet formed some fixed thinking patterns in their minds, which is the best time for brainwashing. In addition to studying, they also have to conduct another important subject - military training every day.
The military training tutorial was written by Qin Feng himself, which was not much different from the rookies he had just entered the camp in the suicide camp. It was just that the number was greatly reduced. Qin Feng even drew a few veterans from the suicide camp to do this. In order to prevent these little guys from skipping classes because they were afraid of hard work, Qin Feng asked Wang Hou to transfer a large amount of cloth from Feng County, and then asked the tailors on the mountain to make a set of small military uniforms, which was the same as the veterans of the suicide camp, and sent them to these little guys.
The little guys are really easy to coax. They are naturally very proud when wearing this kind of military uniform. You must never miss classes in daily military training, otherwise you will have to take off your military uniform and spank.
The parents of the children had no objection. Some people took care of the dolls, they even gave them clothes, had food, and they ate better than their parents. The parents ate black buns. These little kids who didn't do anything eat white buns every day. After more than a month, the weak little bean sprouts that were previously weak grew stronger. They lined up and walked in a formation and looked very well.
There were more and more children on the mountain. After all, Wang Hou felt sorry for his daughter. He half-persuaded and threatened to get a few teachers from Fengxian to Taiping City to share his daughter's work.
Listening to the sound of children reading every day, watching the children wearing neat clothes and shouting slogans to practice, and watching them play all over the mountains and fields, their parents are more motivated when they work. General Qin said that when the spring begins, those who are family members will take the lead in owning their own houses in the city. This makes them more motivated. The trees they cut, mountains they have opened, stones they have been plucked, and the houses they have built will have their own share in the future. How dare they not build them more solidly? Maybe they will be the ones they have to share with them in the future!
Hope is always the biggest driving force. With hope, there is motivation and the courage to overcome everything. In Qin Feng's opinion, these young and strong people on the mountain are still very hard now. With more and more people, houses are never enough. Many people still live in shacks. Eating is just barely enough to eat. Although Taiping City pays wages, Qin Feng will feel a little blushed when he says that amount of money. It is just a meaning. But when Qin Feng sees those people smiling happily after getting wages, he feels a little incredible.
He didn't quite understand the thoughts of these people. His simple meals are from Taiping Urban Management. For these original refugees, even if it is a small amount, it is pure profit. If it accumulates a little, it will always increase.
In short, in Qin Feng's view, everything in Taiping City is slowly getting better. The centripetal force of Taiping City he hopes is also forming bit by bit.
Today is the Great Eve, and almost everyone gathered together. The young and strong people basically gathered together based on the counties and villages before they fled. Each huge bonfire represents a small group.
In the big iron pot, the water boiled away, and plates of wrapped dumplings were poured into it. In an instant, it was filled with aroma. It was made of meat, thanks to the blessing of wild dogs. Although the wild beasts brought by everyone are not enough to eat, chopped ba, and some other things, and they were made into the dumplings, everyone could get one.
The adults were holding the bowls, staring at the dumplings rolling in the pot, and swallowing their saliva secretly, while the little babies were smiling and making noise, running around among the bonfires. There were groups among the adults, but these little guys had no idea and gathered together and were having fun playing.
"It's so good!" Wang Hou, who insisted on coming to Taiping City to celebrate the New Year, looked at these scenes and sighed sincerely. It was just a few short months. His life had been a few big turn, and his life was ups and downs. "When I went up the mountain, I really didn't expect that it would be such a day. At that time, I thought I would live in a cave and climb a ravine from now on!"
"This is just the beginning. Life will always get better and better." Qin Feng smiled.
"I believe this now." Wang Hou laughed, "General Qin, I have been a county magistrate for two months, but I don't want to be an official, but now I am thinking that one day I will become a county magistrate, but the old man has limited ability and can only hold General Qin's thighs tightly."
Qin Feng laughed loudly, "There will be some of the county magistrates, even if they are left and right, they may also be some of them."
Wang Hou stroked his beard and smiled, "Yes, there will be. Now the old man is just asking God to give me more years and years so that I, the old guy, can live a good job in official career before my death. Dangdang County Magistrate, Dangdang Left and Right Prime Minister, General Qin, if you want to realize my wish, you have to step faster."
Wang Yueyao on the side stopped and pouted, "Dad, it's the New Year, what's the matter of saying death, life, it's really unlucky." Xiaoshui, who always stood behind Wang Yueyao, nodded violently, "It's really unlucky, hurry up and slap his mouth." Today, he also said unlucky words several times, but Wang Yueyao punished him many times. This time he caught one, and was really happy.
"Okay, slap, slap!" Wang Hou laughed loudly, raised his palm, and gave it to himself gently. Xiaoshui glared at him, but he really slapped himself hard, and there were still red marks on his face.
"Is this OK?" He looked at Wang Yueyao with dissatisfaction.
