Chapter 242 Everyone will definitely have enough to eat!
"Everyone's suggestions just now are very important and reasonable. But I think we can't completely isolate the people of the three cities. We can't give them important positions for the time being, but we can give them some minor positions and trivial matters.
The construction of our Momen cannot rely on just a few hundred of us. Ten years of waiting is still too long. Whether it is new tanks, weapons or iron ore, they are all coveted by everyone. They can make us rise quickly, but they can also make us perish quickly. So we need to unite all our strengths to keep ourselves alive first.
Regarding the selection of personnel, I divide them into three categories: those who are highly consistent with our Mohist will and concepts, those who have deviated from our Mohist will and concepts but can be aligned again with a little modification, and those who are completely contrary to our Mohist will and concepts.
We can directly absorb the first type of people into Mo Men, and we will transform the second type of people before absorbing them into Mo Men. As for the third type of people, not only can we not absorb them into Mo Men, but we must also transform them regularly.
Of course, what kind of people they are, we need to examine them regularly. I think the selection of people who can be absorbed into the Momen is not only for the common people of the three cities, but also should follow this principle when going out and going to other places in the future. "
After Ruan Qingqing's speech, everyone fell into deep thought.
"If I think about it carefully, what the master said seems to make more sense!" Lu Dunren frowned and said hesitantly.
“I just think that you are too narrow-minded, and you are not as clear-minded as the little girl.
Take me as an example: if I accept a disciple, he must have excellent character, medical talent, and diligence.
However, disciples who are responsible for grinding and preparing medicinal materials only need to have good character, be obedient and hardworking.
How can there be so many people who are the best in everything for me to find? If I can't find them, will I not practice medicine or prepare herbs?
I won't spend ten, twenty, or even thirty or forty years gathering all my disciples before I can see patients, right? Besides, won't the poor medical talents of the disciples who are in charge of grinding and preparing herbs affect my reputation?"
Old Shi was watching from the sidelines, and saw that most people hadn't come to their senses yet. He couldn't help but get a little angry. These people who were studying technology were just a little bit shrewd.
"It's our fault. Because Mo Sect suffered many losses before, we can't get over the fact that it's better to have nothing than to have something less than perfect." Zhuge Hong bowed to Old Shi, "Thank you for your advice!"
"You young people should not be afraid of the rope for ten years after being bitten by a snake once. You must find out the root cause of the matter, otherwise you will be blinded by superficial things for the rest of your life. Not only will you fail to solve the problem, but you will also be left with regrets for the rest of your life..."
As Mr. Shi spoke, he seemed like a different person.
I saw him pursing his lips, staring motionlessly at a spot on the roof, his white beard drooping listlessly, and an aura of sadness lingering around him.
Ruan Qingqing looked at him in surprise. Perhaps he had realized these truths after being taught profound lessons in life!
There are some truths that when we really understand them, it corresponds to the time when we lose something. We always gain and lose in the stumbling, this is life!
Ruan Qingqing sighed barely perceptibly.
After everyone had discussed it, a new round of busy work began.
During the autumn planting, Ruan Qingqing led everyone to plant radishes and Chinese cabbages, and now the harvest is very good. Now there is some wolf meat, and everyone can cut some wolf meat and add radishes or Chinese cabbage to cook a pot, and the whole family can make do with a meal.
In this way, life can go on again.
After the snow melted in the spring, the water level in the karez and reservoirs dug by Ruan Qingqing and others was quite high. The crisscrossing ditches were filled with the sound of rushing water.
"Huh? There's the sound of running water everywhere?"
The people were very excited. In the past, they did not understand the importance of water storage, and they did not dig ditches, let alone reservoirs and karez to store water. Therefore, except when it rained heavily, it was difficult to hear the sound of running water.
As soon as the land thawed, Ruan Qingqing immediately called everyone to turn the soil and compost in preparation for spring sowing. Ruan Qingqing put out the convenient farming tools that he had made in the winter. If anyone wanted to borrow them, they could exchange them for three for one, that is, if they used the farming tools for one day, they would have to work for three days.
After a winter of suffering, the common people were left with only skeletons. They certainly had no money, but Ruan Qingqing didn't want to encourage them to get something for nothing, so she came up with this idea.
Even so, everyone was still happy because they had harvested so many radishes and cabbages last winter, which was more than they had ever harvested. Although everyone almost vomited from eating so much, it helped them get through the winter.
Therefore, they were very confident about spring planting. As long as they followed the orders of the city lord, they would not have to worry about having no food. Now they understood a little bit why the Yunqing people were keen on planting land. If they put in effort, they would get tangible rewards, and they didn't have to worry about losing both their money and their lives.
After the spring planting, Ruan Qingqing and his team continued to build roads. Not only should the transportation within the city be very convenient, but the three cities should also be closely connected. Ruan Qingqing mobilized all the laborers in the three cities to build roads. Except for the time spent farming, everyone worked on the road. It was not that everyone was conscious, but that building roads could be exchanged for food, and everyone had to go in order to fill their stomachs.
With such high-intensity work, all the roads were repaired by the end of July.
At this time, the wheat in the field was growing well and it was time to harvest.
Looking at the heavy ears of wheat, the people squatting on the ground couldn't help crying with joy, and some even couldn't help chewing the wheat grains raw.
“Sweet and fragrant!”
“Sweet and fragrant!”
There were trembling sounds coming from the wheat field.
When harvesting wheat, everyone seemed not afraid of any tiredness and wanted to harvest it all on the same day, so much so that a large number of people fainted from exhaustion.
Ruan Qingqing was speechless when she heard about this.
Yue Linlang expressed her understanding of this phenomenon.
"At this time, they were like poor people who suddenly had a lot of silver in their pockets, as if there were thieves everywhere coveting their silver."
As she spoke, she sighed, "It's all for nothing! I heard from the local people that they used to be very lucky if they could harvest 20 kilograms of wheat per mu of land. Now their yield per mu is at least 2 dan, which has increased more than ten times. How can they not be on guard against them like thieves? If they don't bring them all back, they're afraid that when they wake up from the dream, they will find that it was all for nothing."
Ruan Qingqing stood with her hands behind her back, looking into the distance with a leisurely tone.
"Everything will be fine! From now on, as long as we are not lazy, everyone will have enough to eat!"
"Well, with our giant here, everyone will be able to have enough to eat!" Yue Linlang smiled brightly.
