With Pinxixi in hand, I have a supermarket in the Changzheng!

The old woman was covering her feet and wailing.

"Ouch! My feet! My feet!"

If an ordinary person were to trip over the uneven ground and fall to the ground, he would only suffer minor injuries.

But the old lady had bound feet, which made it extremely difficult for her to move, and her ankle was badly injured when she fell.

Zhou Yue estimated that the old woman would not be able to get out of bed for two or three months.

"Why are you still standing there? Come and help me up!"

The man saw Guihua's mother standing at the door and yelled at her fiercely.

Guihua's mother hurried over to help. Somehow, although her mother-in-law was injured, she was not sad.

Instead, he felt fortunate that his daughter could temporarily escape the fate of foot binding.

But she knew that this was only temporary...

[Tongzi, the Red Army will leave tomorrow, what will happen to the girls here? ]

Although the problem was temporarily solved, Zhou Yue couldn't fall asleep.

She was worried about the girls in this town, she could tell from the ignorance of their parents.

After they leave, there will certainly be many more girls who will be persecuted by foot binding.

The system thought for a moment and said something meaningful.

[To solve such problems, we still have to start from human nature and interests. ]

"Humanity...interests..."

Zhou Yue closed her eyes, muttered these two words, and soon thought of a suitable solution.

The next morning, the Red Army did not set out on time.

Many female soldiers in the army carried out spontaneous lobbying and exhortation in the town.

Thousands of lesbians went from house to house.

I explained to them earnestly the bad habits and disadvantages of foot binding.

Zhou Yue has joined them. She and sister Xiuhua came to the home of the little girl Guihua from yesterday.

Guihua's father is repairing the house that was burned down yesterday.

When he saw them coming over in military uniform, he greeted them with a smile on his face.

"Comrade Red Army, what brings you here?"

Zhou Yue thought that this man's good attitude towards the Red Army was related to the food he distributed.

After the Red Army entered the town, they found that there were also landlords and bullies in the town.

After the Red Army suppressed the rebellion by force, it distributed all the wealth and food that the landlords and bullies had amassed to the poor people without reservation.

These villagers have worked hard for most of their lives, but still live a miserable life.

Of course, we are grateful for these food and land.

Lin Xiuhua didn't hesitate and went straight to the point.

"Do your girls bind their feet?"

When Guihua's father heard this, he sighed and looked complaining.

"Oh! I get angry when I talk about this! My daughter is already eight years old, and she cries when she wants to have her feet bound, and it hasn't been done yet!"

When Lin Xiuhua heard this, her face changed and she said with a stern face.

"It's not the same thing as before. You can't bind your feet!"

When Guihua's father heard this, he frowned in disapproval.

"How can you not bind your feet? You won't be able to get married if you have big feet!"

Lin Xiuhua knew that this was another diehard supporter of foot binding.

"Foot binding is harmful to the body! If you don't bind your feet and are healthy, how can you not get married?"

Guihua's father muttered, "Tsk, you don't understand anything..."

Zhou Yue knew what Guihua’s father was thinking.

In the feudal period, a pair of small feet was extremely important, and the smaller the three-inch golden lotus, the better.

It is difficult for a woman with big feet to marry, but a woman with small feet can marry well, and sometimes even across class boundaries.

For most parents of this era, daughters are not considered human beings at all, but just commodities for exchange.

If a daughter could marry into a wealthy family, she could get more dowry to supplement the family.

As for the pain of foot binding and the damage to the body, they didn't care at all.

Zhou Yue stood in the yard, looking at Lin Xiuhua and Guihua's father. The two sides had different opinions and were arguing with each other.

She knew that reasoning would be of no use to such a person.

The soldiers had been busy for the entire morning and were talking until their mouths were dry, but Zhou Yue knew it was of little use.

The soldiers set out and left the town in the afternoon.

When the warriors leave, this becomes Zhou Yue’s home court!

"Strange! Why are there so many strangers in town today?"

"That's right! There are also many horse-drawn and ox-drawn carts, and I don't know what they are used for."

"He also bought several large plots of land in our village, and spent a lot of money!"

After the Red Army left, another group of outsiders came to the town.

There is no doubt that these people are NPCs set by Zhou Yue.

They bought several large plots of land in the town in advance.

These lands were bought at high prices from families with little labor.

These people worked day and night, building rows of wooden houses on this land at a very fast speed.

On the day when these wooden houses were built, many villagers came over to watch the fun.

"Why are these outsiders building houses here?"

"I asked around, and it seems like they are planning to build a factory here!"

"Build a factory? What kind of factory?"

Zhou Yue plans to build another soap factory here.

These are daily necessities and are relatively easy to sell. Even if they cannot be sold, they can be recycled into the system in exchange for points and food.

Among these NPCs, the leader stood up and spoke to the villagers.

"Hello, folks. We are planning to build a factory here. We need a lot of female workers. The wage is 2 cents a day. Everyone is welcome to sign up!"

Hearing this, the eyes of the surrounding villagers lit up.

They do farm work every day and only make a little money when the crops are harvested.

But working in a factory is different. As long as you work for a day, you get a day's wages!

And 2 cents is not a small amount, it can buy a lot of food!

This kind of job is hard to find, let alone in the village, even in the city!

"Why do you only want female workers? Why not male workers?"

The men around him felt a little unhappy.

They are much stronger than women. I really don’t understand why this factory only recruits female workers?

The NPC standing in the front explained.

"The work in our factory is not hard, but requires carefulness, so female workers are most suitable."

"Oh, okay..."

Although these men were somewhat discouraged, they still ran home quickly and informed the women in their families to sign up as female workers.

Soon, a long line formed in the yard outside the wooden house.

This team is full of women who have signed up to work in the factory and earn money.

At this time, it was the turn of a little girl in front of the line.

The little girl hung her head and nervously tugged at the hem of her clothes with both hands. She was not even ten years old and was afraid that the factory would not accept her.

Her father asked her to come today, but she didn't have much hope.

Although she has been helping her family with work since she was young and has a lot of energy, she is still a child after all. How could the factory accept a child?

When the people around saw this scene, they all laughed and talked about it.

"Hahaha, this Big Brother Li actually sent his own little girl here!"

"What can such a small doll do?"

"The factory definitely won't accept it! Isn't this just a wasted trip?"

Hearing everyone's laughter and discussions, the little girl lowered her head even more, her face turned red with shame, and she wanted to turn around and run away.

Just as she was about to leave, an NPC lady in charge of recruiting people smiled and grabbed her hand.
