I am engaged in construction in Datang

New bamboos take advantage of the situation, while old bamboos are buried in the dust. Peach and plum blossoms bloom along the way, but no one is seen planting them.

Yu Yan followed the yamen runners and rode at full speed towards Hebei Road.

During the past few months, the owner of the manor has kept him to study compulsory education. How should he solve the difficult situations he encounters?

That group of teachers were also studying every minute.

They have to learn what children learn in three years in just half a year, and even have to learn more deeply and meticulously. Although they have the advantage of strong comprehension ability as adults, it is not easy after all.

Chinese and ideological and political theory are okay, but physics, chemistry, biology and geography are really torturous.

A few days later.

Yu Yan rushed to the place in a dusty state. He first went to contact the county magistrate and then slowly carried out the work.

"Minister Yu..."

Zhang Mingfu called out this title rather awkwardly, as he had never held this position before.

I heard that his grade is equivalent to the fifth grade, which is much higher than his!

"Zhang Mingfu."

Yu Yan bowed and saluted: "Is the office of the Ministry of Education ready?"

We started arranging things here last year, and after more than half a year, there must be a result.

“It’s already been built.”

"Then I will move there today, Zhang Mingfu..." Yu Yan turned his head and saw the other party's confused expression.

"Minister Yu."

Zhang Mingfu thought for a moment and said, "But now you are the only one in the Ministry of Education."

"Why don't we go have a meal first? It's already noon."

"..." Yu Yan slapped his forehead, forgetting that the people from the Ministry of Rites had not arrived yet.

He came on horseback, so he was much faster than the group of people.

"Alright."

Yu Yan nodded: "I will learn about the situation in the county in the next two days."

"Zhang Mingfu, we can just make something simple ourselves. There's no need to go to a restaurant or something like that."

Zhang Mingfu wiped the sweat from his forehead. This was a man who got things done. He would have to talk to his subordinates about this and ask them to work harder.

Their consistent principle is to meet different people and do different things.

This county is the largest in the surrounding area, with a total of 67 villages under its jurisdiction, and the number of registered children of school-age is less than .

But there are probably about a thousand people who have not registered.

The situation in other counties is not much better.

This time it is compulsory education with full coverage, and no one can slip through the net.

“The census is too slow.”

Now a new round of census has begun, which is bound to uncover the population "protected" by the landlords.

Yu Yan lay on the bed, looking at the starry sky outside the window and sighed: "There are many hidden people in the Tang Dynasty, and there is no good monitoring method now."

"I just hope that all girls can understand the importance of reading."

Two days later.

Officials from the Ministry of Rites arrived one after another.

This group of people will be part of the Ministry of Education from now on and will no longer be affiliated with the Ministry of Rites.

"Du Mingfu, please post a notice."

Yu Yan said: "We need to check each village one by one and record the specific conditions of the children."

"Even the little beggars on the street can't be spared."

After the teaching building was completed, the next step was to build dormitories, which were specially provided for children who lived far away or had no home.

We can’t let little beggars wander around all day.

If they do well in their studies, we will ask them to continue their studies. If they do not do well in their studies, we will help them find a job.

"This... isn't easy."

Zhang Mingfu felt that it was troublesome as soon as he thought about it. Not to mention the group of little beggars who were good at hiding, it would be difficult to deal with even the common people's homes.

Not all families are willing to send their children to school.

“So this is in the law.”

Yu Yan said: "If you don't follow the rules, you will go to jail."

Zhang Mingfu's forehead was sweating... He really couldn't understand the point of going through so much trouble.

……

Huaihai area.

The wind howled and thunder and lightning flashed.

Li Xiaochun was awakened from her sleep by a loud noise. She quickly put on her clothes and walked to the door.

The sky, which should have been blue, turned pitch black and heavy rain poured down.

The trees were bent by the strong wind, and the rain washed the soil on the surface again and again. Li Xiaochun saw a vole struggling in the flowing water, and then gradually drowned.

"Manager Xiaochun!"

Duan Lun came in the rain, but it was useless even though he was wearing a straw raincoat.

"The rain is too heavy, too heavy!" he shouted, afraid that his voice would be blocked by the heavy rain.

"I know."

Li Xiaochun picked up the wooden barrel in the yard and began measuring.

She remembered what the owner of the manor had said before, that rainstorms are divided into four levels. A rainstorm of 5 centimeters within three hours is considered an orange rainstorm, and a rainstorm of 10 centimeters is considered a red rainstorm.

The rain doesn't look like it's going to stop.

"Orange... will probably turn red."

The cold and wet rain soaked her face. She turned her head to look at Duan Lun, her eyes shining darkly: "Minister Duan, didn't we invite the commoner who can communicate with the villagers yesterday?"

"We need to find a way to get him to take us to the village." Li Xiaochun said, "We will try our best to meet any requests he makes."

"Okay." Duan Lun also knew the seriousness of the matter.

They had no time to communicate, they had to rescue people first. The terrain there was low and the situation was not optimistic.

At the same time, we must open canals to divert the water to low-lying areas so that the water flow will be greater and faster.

The two walked towards the meeting room.

Li Xiaochun took a seat: "Liaison team?"

“Already here!”

"Let the people in charge of liaison be on standby at all times and take turns on duty."

"Where is the security team?" she continued to ask.

“Already here!”

"Calm the people's emotions, maintain order, and avoid riots caused by panic."

"Yes."

“Where are the rescuers?”

"Manager Xiaochun, I have asked the rescue team to rescue people first." Duan Lun said.

The rescue team was composed entirely of soldiers who obeyed orders and acted quickly.

"Okay, make sure you keep yourself safe."

"Logistics team..."

After making quick arrangements, Li Xiaochun took the translator and the soldiers and drove the carriage towards the village.

The rain turned the ground into muddy and every step was extremely difficult.

"You must protect the explosives, okay?"

The general shouted to the soldiers: "Don't let it get wet at all, otherwise all our efforts will be wasted!"

"Do you understand?"

"clear!!!"

“Soldiers, why did you join the army?”

"Guard the country and protect the people!"

"Now the people are in trouble, what should we do?"

"I will go through fire and water, and I will not refuse even if I die!"

The raindrops stretched out and turned into silk threads, which were carried by the strong wind and stabbed at the pedestrians fiercely. The carriages were pulling wooden boxes, which were wrapped in cowhide, linen, and straw raincoats...

Ahead was flowing mud, fallen trees, and thunder and lightning that seemed to be just around the corner.

The horses were too frightened to move forward, and the soldiers had to push and spur them on to move forward.

There is no thunderbolt, and hills and hills collapsed.

Duan Lun was old, so he stayed where he was to take control of the situation and did not leave with Xiaochun and the others.

"This is the wrath of heaven."

The old man looked up at this unforgettable scene: "Heaven and earth are not kind, and treat all things as straw dogs."

"Now we wish to use our human power to shake the heavens and protect the people of our Great Tang."

"Hahahahaha..."

Duan Lun sneered, "No more than that."
