Chapter 596 Enriching the people and strengthening the army

Several people who were discussing the matter were not surprised. At first, they felt that she was a woman breastfeeding and discussing matters at the same time, which disturbed the schedule, and they complained a lot.

But Bai Zhi only took it as an ordinary and trivial matter. Once the screen was blocked, she could breastfeed and talk about things behind the screen without any delay.

Later they got used to it and became accustomed to it.

Bai Zhi also thought about finding a wet nurse for A Gu, but if she didn't breastfeed herself, she would get blocked, which would make her uncomfortable. Besides, it felt more secure to feed Agu by herself, so she decided to feed her herself.

She was breastfeeding behind the screen and asked, "Where did you just talk?"

"It's time to make a decision. There's a shortage of manpower." Zhou Li reminded.

"Oh, okay, Zhou Li..." She paused again, thinking of Zhou Li's writing habits, "Forget it, Ronger, you can ghostwrite and help me remember it."

Zhuo Rong was a little surprised, "I...can it?"

Bai Zhi chuckled lightly. She had read Zhuo Rong's handwriting. It was very good and her words were concise. "Of course."

Zhuo Rong was flattered, a little excited, and a little trembling with excitement, "Well, sister, everything is ready, just tell me."

Bai Zhi organized her thoughts again, "This first point is the most important, and the first thing to do is to liberate women's productivity!"

"How to liberate?" the farmer asked.

"These women spend most of their time just sewing clothes for the whole family. Not only are their eyes broken, they also have to take care of the family's daily life. It's time-consuming and laborious."

"In this case, Zhou Li, you ask someone to go to Nanchen Quzhou, which is the important place of silk. You ask people to buy a few spinning wheels, no, buy a few craftsmen who know the tricks, and ask them to make spinning wheels for us. When doing things, remember not to stick to the past, but seek improvements. It would be best to turn manual ones into automatic ones, freeing people's hands!"

Zhou Li thought about the feasibility and replied, "Understood. I will ask people to buy the wood needed for the spinning wheel along the way, and then look at the cotton, linen and silk."

"Yun County has the most women. It's best to centralize all the textile bases and keep costs down. I'd rather spend a few taels of silver a year on them than sew clothes in the dark!"

The farmer suddenly understood and responded, "Oh! I understand. As long as the city lord's spinning wheel is in place, I will go and gather those five villages together."

"Okay, this will give them more time. By distributing cattle, horses and donkeys to various villages, they can also do heavy work. They can raise chickens and ducks in captivity, so that the food will be more abundant, and they can also be sold!"

"At the same time, we must also pay attention to the improvement of agricultural tools and vehicles, and vigorously recruit talents! Zhou Li, you can handle this matter."

"Understood." Zhou Li responded.

"There is another thing that holds back their time, and that is the elderly and children. Let's do this. We are now piloting the establishment of kindergartens in places with heavy labor. We will find more experienced women who are older and relatively strong. The elderly can be accommodated there and more children can be taken care of.”

"Does it cost money to go to school?" the military attache asked curiously.

"It costs money, but with a spinning wheel, a few pieces of cloth can cover the children's tuition for one month, so they should be willing."

"The elderly can also set up a nursing home nearby. Those who are willing to spend money can go there, and those who are unwilling can only take care of it themselves. This matter does not have to be urgent. The textile matter is the most important, but Mr. Qi, you have to think more about it in the future. You have to think carefully about how to lay out this matter and where to build these kindergartens and nursing homes so that they can reach the surrounding villages!"

"Understood! I'll go back and find someone to discuss it."

Bai Zhi continued, "In this way, there will be a lot more work for women. They can make money whether there are men in the family, and living will not be a problem. There are more industries, and money will flow accordingly, so it is convenient It will attract big businessmen, and Denning City will slowly become rich in the future."

"Let's talk about conscription, Xiao Lieutenant Liu. With the support of women at home, the number of men who can recruit will gradually increase, but you can't push them to death. You have to arrange how to rest and rotate. It's best to be able to Rotate frequently.”

"You... don't have so much time!"

"Having a baby is a big deal. You have to allow them time to go home and give birth, otherwise my tannins will become extinct!"

"But then again, the kindergarten must be run well, and the people who are absolutely trustworthy must be screened. The parents must be trustworthy, otherwise they may not want to have children, and then my tanning will be really doomed!"

After Bai Zhi fed the child, Agu also stopped crying. She walked out from behind the screen and took a look at what Zhuo Rong had written. It was clean and clear, and she suddenly felt happy.

Before there was a reasonable assessment system, the only people Bai Zhi could trust were the people she knew around her. She asked on a whim, "Rong'er, do you want to try the kindergarten?"

Zhuo Rong was shocked, "Can I?"

Bai Zhi smiled lightly, "Of course, women have natural advantages, and there are not many women in Denning City who can read and write. I am not very relieved to leave so many children to these big men."

These words made several people laugh, "That's not true. If I go back to hold the child, I will be scolded every day!"

Zhuo Rong was really happy to be entrusted with such an important task, but she also had a lot of worries. She touched her cheek. The big word slave was bright and eye-catching, "But my face..."

Bai Zhi hugged Agu to her, "What's the point? I can't carve a slave on your face. You will really be a slave for the rest of your life. Do you want to give it a try?"

Zhuo Rong swallowed, "I want to!"

Bai Zhi smiled brightly, "That's good! I will find someone to help you with site selection, personnel selection, and training. You go back and think about what to do!"

Regarding the kindergarten, Bai Zhi said to the military attache, "These things will not take effect so quickly. Maybe they will not take effect until next year. But don't worry, even if you recruit all the mature men now, you will face Nanchen and Beichen's strong military strength is just a drop in the bucket. Only by raising enough people can we form a stronger army!"

"Now let's build the gap in the dam and let the White Tiger Guards stand on it! I'll go to Jiangzu and ask General Song Qian to lend some troops."

After receiving Bai Zhi's reply, the stone hanging in the military attache's heart fell to the ground, and the matter of building the dam was considered to have made progress.

Just put it together like this, and the team composed of these half-hearted people is about to start functioning.

Bai Zhi summarized today's decision, "In short, all walks of life need to pioneer and innovate, so you can't be lazy! Our development goal of Denning in the past five years is to rely on technological innovation to enrich the people and strengthen the army. No one can violate this purpose! Do you understand?"

Everyone said in unison, "Understood!"

With the core purpose in mind, a political force born around Bai Zhi is setting off a hurricane in the five cities of Denning, and a revolution around liberating women's productivity is quietly unfolding.

But at the same time, the White Tiger Guards were seconded to build dams, and the guard over Mei Shaohong became much weaker.

Mei Shaohong took advantage of the dark and windy night of the month and escaped when the White Tiger Guards were taking over.

Bai Zhi would never forget the feeling of having a dagger pressed against her throat when giving birth, so after Mei Shaohong escaped, she could hardly sleep at night.

But life had to go on, and the many things happening every day left her little time to be timid and fearful. She could only beg for fate, praying that Zhuo Yao could finish the war quickly and lead troops to garrison in Danning.

A few days later, what she worried about did not happen, but she waited for the clarion call of victory!
