Reborn in 1976, teach him how to be an official

"So, after explaining the reasons clearly to the members, the resistance wasn't too great."

"Over the past three years, the vast majority of farmers in the region have been able to meet their food and clothing needs. For families with a working workforce, food self-sufficiency is no longer a problem. Many have accumulated some savings through raising pigs and chickens, and through side jobs during the slack season, and are now thinking about building new houses."

“All the market towns we’ve come across along the way have been bustling for this reason.”

"When I have money, the first thing I think of is building a house. Especially if I build a house near a market town, I can rent out the shop space, which costs a lot of money."

What Liu Hongyi said was extremely convincing.

Xin Yuanjia and others are now convinced that the changes in the Chuzhou area are comprehensive, not just happening in the urban area, and not just building more factories.

Although they came all the way, they could see some simple factories even near the country towns.

But the fact that a small, remote town like Wohugang has seen such significant changes speaks volumes. Agriculture in the Chuzhou region is also bound to have seen significant development.

Five miles up from Wohugang is Guyuan Commune.

Niujiaoshi Brigade is near Guyuan Commune, about two miles away, and is close to the deep mountains and forests.

Like Wohugang, Guyuan Commune has many new houses and the market is much more lively.

Returning to the familiar Guyuan Commune, Xu Wenxin's eyes revealed a look of nostalgia.

She was a very kind and cheerful girl. Although she had been sent to the countryside for two years and her life in Niujiaoshi Brigade was extremely difficult, she did not "hold a grudge" at this moment, but instead felt a little nostalgic.

Life in Niujiaoshi Brigade was indeed hard, but the members were also very simple and honest. They took more or less care of the educated youth who had been sent to the countryside, and there was no incident of bullying against them.

"Hey, that's..."

In Guyuan Commune, Xu Wenxin saw a brand new building.

Unlike ordinary houses, the building is much larger and it is obviously a unit.

Liu Hongyi smiled and said, "That's Guyuan Central School. It's newly built."

“All funds are allocated centrally by the region.”

"You mean to say that a new central school has been built in every commune in the region?"

Xu Wenxin was very smart and asked immediately.

Because Guyuan Commune is already the most remote commune in the entire Chuxin County, if Guyuan Commune has built a new central school, then other places must have built them as well.

"That's the principle, but there are also some central schools that are under construction."

"The region has issued a document requiring every commune in the region to build a brand new central school within three years. This includes both elementary and junior high schools. However, the order of building schools isn't from far to near, but from far to near."

"Oh, why is that?"

"Because the more remote the area, the more dilapidated the schools are, and the greater the need for new schools. In communes and district towns closer to the city, conditions are slightly better, and the older schools are barely usable."

"So, the strategy we've decided on is to advance from far to near."

"Start construction in the most remote areas first, and gradually move closer to the urban areas."

"This money will all be spent from the regional finances."

"Although some people have objected, saying we don't have enough financial resources right now and that we should use the money to build more factories and start more businesses, I believe that everything else can wait, but education cannot."

"The factory can find other ways."

“Education must never be delayed.”

"A few years of delay in education will delay an entire generation!"

Xu Wenxin was in high spirits and decided to stay at the educated youth site in Niujiaoshi Brigade for one night.

To be honest, her idea is very troubling.

The reason is very simple. There is no educated youth training center in Niujiaoshi Brigade anymore.

Last October, the National Educated Youth Office issued a document officially abolishing the policy of sending educated youth to the countryside. All educated youth still working in the countryside were allowed to return to the city annually.
