His Majesty the Demon King of Justice
Chapter 185 Member of the Material Security Department
The author has something to say: ps1: Lijiacun has a real prototype, which is slightly exaggerated in the article.
ps2: I personally do not accept all the silly remarks about the beauty of the countryside. I myself had a rural household registration 11 years ago.
ps3: In some local villages, the division of poverty alleviation funds and resources, and corruption are countless times more serious than those described in the article.Therefore, I think that the most difficult departments at the grassroots level in China, except for the police, are the poverty alleviation offices that are dedicated to doing things (not counting the idlers).
In Li Lifan's memory, his family is warm and harmonious, with a kind grandfather, a gentle and hardworking mother, who doesn't talk much but is always careful about the books at home, and keeps all the textbooks of his sons intact. The father, and the "grandmother" who seldom speaks, but likes to pack snacks in his pockets and distribute them to his grandchildren.
Li Lifan has never felt that his family’s situation is special. It is true that his family is much poorer than many high school and college classmates’ families, but Li Lifan believes that his family is at least clean, complete, harmonious and warm. One point is that most people can't compare.In Li Lifan's memory, his family has never quarreled, and the most problematic conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law does not exist in his family-"grandma" can't speak a few words all year round, so how can she blush with her daughter-in-law? ?
Now looking back and thinking about it, Li Lifan realized that his family was not what he understood...Why did "grandma" and "grandma" talk so little?Or, why are almost all the elders in the family taciturn except for grandpa?
Because in the family except grandpa, no one else has a say.
Li Lifan recalled that every time there were outsiders or his own family gathered together, there was no other voice except grandpa. Grandpa was indeed kind to them grandchildren, but even those who lived with grandpa all their lives "Grandma" and "Grandma" are not qualified to speak loudly in front of grandpa.
Li Lifan felt the nerves on his forehead throbbing. People’s memories are very strange things. Things that you thought you ignored and didn’t pay attention to at all. When you open the attic of memory, you will always find that those things are actually set there-
When I was in elementary school, my grandfather seemed to still do things to my grandma. Why didn't I remember what Wutangmei said, and the little Jiajia from Uncle Yao's family asked grandma to eat?Because when he saw grandma that day, there were some black and red things and tiny cracks on the skin of grandma's mouth, Li Lifan thought grandma had fallen, so he ran to call Dad took Yunnan Baiyao... Li Lifan, who was still young at that time, did not have the concept of domestic violence.
Grandpa treats mother better than other aunts, because mother gave birth to three sons, grandpa is willing to give her face...
During the summer vacation in high school, Li Lifan, who was studying hard, seemed to have vaguely heard his mother mention that Li Liqiu felt guilty when he saw his second uncle's house...
The sons and grandchildren in the family are all looking for their own way out after failing to pass the college entrance examination, and no matter what Li Lifan thinks at the moment, he can't think of any of his cousins who have graduated from junior high school or above.
Li Lifan, who walked home silently, hesitated for a while and didn't go back to his room. He walked around to the west of the main room and knocked on his parents' door.
"Lifan? Still not sleeping? Can't sleep?" His father, who had just turned [-], got up and opened the door. Li Lifan saw his mother get up too.
Li Lifan walked in and closed the door with his hand. He could feel the warmth from his parents' low-pitched greetings. This is the strength that his family has always given him, and it is also the confidence that he can live a better life with dignity.He went to his parents' bed and sat down. He looked at the faces of his parents who were a little older than the middle-aged people of the same age, and felt a little sour in his heart: "Dad, Mom... You know what kind of department the Property Security Department is."
"I understand, Lifan, you can work with peace of mind, and your family will never hold you back." The mother who cared about her son quickly expressed her opinion.
Li Lifan shook his head slightly: "...I used to be ignorant and didn't care about family affairs except for studying, so I didn't know that my high school registration fee was actually exchanged by sister Qiuqiu."
"Lifan, this is none of your business. The money I borrowed from your second uncle's family has already been returned." Mom said nervously.
Li Lifan smiled wryly: "This is not a question of money. Mom, if you can pay back the money, who can afford it in sister Qiuqiu's life? Today... I saw little Shasha and sister Yao from the fourth uncle's house. Even if the fourth uncle ran away The fourth aunt is left to take them, and the fourth aunt is so diligent, and she can afford the two sisters to study in the city as a nanny, right?" Li Lifan took a deep breath, he didn't dare to say the next words, but these But he was not qualified to evade, "I didn't think about this problem before, but now parents, tell me the truth... Is there someone in our Lijia Village who is in charge of the people in the village, so that the situation like Fourth Aunt is not allowed people go out to work?"
In modern society... in 2018, urbanites who live in big cities and spend their days online, playing games, surfing Taobao, shopping and singing KTV in addition to work and study may find it very difficult to understand the people of China who live under the same sky as them. Among the citizens, there are actually a small number of people whose personal freedom is restricted and controlled by some kind of force.
Even Li Lifan, who came out of the countryside, and Li Lifan, who has studied in high school and university in the city for several years, never thought about this problem before entering the Department of Material Security.
After all, in our cognition, it is very normal to work in cities or in other places, and migrant workers have long been a widely used label among the migrant workers - with the utilitarianism in the bones of Chinese people, working is more profitable than farming Then choosing the latter is as natural as drinking water when you are thirsty.As a large number of young and middle-aged people migrate to cities to work, left-behind children and elderly people have become a social problem.
So... Many people, including Li Lifan, have never considered that such an incident will happen in the sun: In some villages, clans, village elders, and family elders will restrict working women in the village and even working young and old. A village worker is not allowed to go out of the village, and he or she is tightly bound to the land.
Li Lifan's parents looked at each other when they heard the words, as if they didn't quite understand why Li Lifan said these words in such a sad tone, his mother wondered if something was wrong with her son, hesitated for a while before cautiously saying: "You What are you talking about? It looks like someone forbids the people in the village to live a better life. Your fourth aunt still has two dolls at home. If she goes far away, who will take care of little Sasha and Yaomei? The same as before, several families in the village go to the city to do odd jobs together, and go back together, it’s safe, and it’s not like they can’t make money.”
The so-called part-time job refers to daily hard work, and the income is not guaranteed and unstable.The fourth aunt is a rural woman, and it is conceivable how much money she can earn by doing odd jobs.Li Lifan vaguely remembered that his parents also used this kind of odd jobs to earn him school uniform fees, and he felt even more uncomfortable. He thought of what Zhu Yuan, who had done a survey on the dark side of the village, said - certain village restrictions In most cases, villagers will not take coercive means, but use other methods such as demonizing the city, demonizing labor behavior, and blood bondage.
This is very subtle, and it is difficult to pick out the wrong method... After all, people do not really use illegal personal restrictions, but use language, group "sexual" atmosphere and other ways to influence sideways.But fallacies are fallacies after all, untenable—there are at least a few million young girls working far away from home in China, and tens of thousands of single mothers with children. Is it true that the rest of the world is not safe, that they are all living in precarity and trembling?It is not safe for a rural woman who is nearly forty years old to work in a city that is at most two hours away from home by bus? !
Yes, no matter how unbelievable it may seem to outsiders, such an unreasonable excuse can confine a mother who can hardly support two children by farming without the assistance of her husband to the countryside. The only one who can use her own labor a little The way to change life is to do part-time jobs organized by villagers and "go together and return together".
Li Lifan's mother couldn't feel Li Lifan's pain, and was still trying to persuade her son in her own way: "It's not a good thing to go far away, your fourth uncle will never come back, and now he doesn't care whether he lives or dies." I know. The outside world is very chaotic, not everything is the same as the place where you work. Lifan, you used to be at the head of the school, but now you are in a national unit, you don’t understand the outside world..."
Li Lifan listened to his mother nagging him about the outside world, the farthest place he has ever traveled in his life was the provincial capital, he couldn't help but smile wryly.Yes, how could he have forgotten it? The outside world is very "chaotic", very unsafe, and very difficult to live in. This is what he has heard from the elders of Lijia Village since he was a child. He was admitted to a better university and went out. When he was studying, his grandfather and the great-uncle in the other room told him that he was fine, not to leave school casually, and to take the civil service examination to become an official after graduation...
Lijia Village is not a very remote village. It is only four or ten minutes away from the county seat by bus, and only two hours away from the city. However, it is different from those villages where the entire village has gone out to work and is rich. , there are almost no new houses in Lijia Village—it’s not surprising that there are not many villagers in Lijia Village who go out to work. Odd jobs, squatting for a few days to earn a few hundred yuan of hard-earned money, and then come back together... Anyway, most of the people in Lijia Village are surnamed Li, and they are all related by blood. They go to work in "dangerous" cities together. Is there anything more dangerous than being with relatives?
A strange thought came into Li Lifan's mind. If the news about Li's Village is known to the world, the world will probably only think that the people in Li's Village are lazy and unwilling to go out to work and make money. That's why they are so poor and backward... Thinking about it, this conjecture might be inseparable, and Li Lifan had no other feelings except for a wry smile.
"Mom, I'm 20 years old this year." Li Lifan waited for his mother to finish persuading him, and then said slowly, "At my age, if I didn't go to school but worked in the city, I could be a plumber, courier, or takeaway. ... These industries do not require academic qualifications to recruit people. Dolls who have graduated from junior high school and high school are fine, and everyone wants them. The work they do is not complicated. Dad is suffering when the farming is busy... There are thousands of couriers and takeaways in city a where I am now. Their wages are thousands of yuan when they are not busy, and tens of thousands when they are busy, which is not much less than when I entered this national unit ..."
"Can you earn so much by running errands and delivering meals?" Dad, who had been silent all the time, was surprised.
"Yes. City A is still a small city. In big cities, there are tens of thousands of the most diligent takeaways a month when they are busy. There are many people in the city, and young people are unwilling to cook with a fire. Many people eat twice a day. Every meal is ordered for takeaway, and there is a commission for every delivery..." Li Lifan tried his best to use the meaning that his parents could understand and accept most slowly, "If you don't know the way, or you are afraid that you will not be able to be a deliveryman, Then there are other options... In a city with hundreds of thousands of people, there are at least tens of thousands of jobs for people with low education. Those who can endure hardships earn more, and those who cannot endure hardships earn less. Anyway, wages are saved There is always a surplus of dots... this is the male side."
"It's easier for women to find such simple jobs than us men. Waiters, babysitters, cleaning... The minimum number of female workers in small restaurants is 1800. Food is included, and some work such as washing vegetables, washing dishes, mopping the floor and sweeping the floor... …This kind of job does not require education and is not only for young people. You can find it on any street with a restaurant. If you are younger, you will have more choices..."
Li Lifan’s family conditions are difficult, and he has work-study experience after he went to college. It’s hard to find a job as a tutor, and he can’t delay his studies for a part-time job. Age requires him to be able to tell a thing or two - as a farmer's son, he knows exactly what method to use to convince his parents.After introducing the choices of low-level migrant workers, he began to tell his parents another way: starting a business by himself.
For example, when a farmer’s son like Li Lifan talks about starting a business, of course he doesn’t start a business at such a high level as starting a company, opening a hotel, or opening a chain store—he started from a roadside stall.When he was a freshman, he was very poor. He teamed up with a poor student from another department to pool money to search for cheap trinkets on Taobao, and bought a batch to sell in the night market. Only by doing so piecemeal did he earn the canteen meal ticket for that semester; When I was a sophomore, I heard that a senior sister earned four years of tuition fees by selling egg-filled pancakes on weekends. They were very envious, but they didn't have the capital to start, and they didn't have the skills.
For the vast majority of Chinese people, it is almost common sense that setting up a small stall to sell food can make money. The profit of the catering industry starts at 100%. The stall looks inconspicuous, but it is no secret that people can earn half of the turnover.But for the very few people who obviously live in the 21st century, but their thoughts are imperceptibly rigid and bound, this is undoubtedly a fantasy——Li Lifan’s mother no longer babbles that “the outside world is very dangerous.” Lifan's father's eyes became brighter the more he listened.
Li Lifan is a "capable son", what he said is not empty talk, even if what he said is the "living way" and small fights that only the low-level people who have no resources and capital will appreciate, it is enough to convince His parents——Li Lifan’s family farmed the land when they were busy and did odd jobs when they were free to support their three sons’ education (Li Lifan received a full scholarship and a student loan from the state, and Li Lifan’s third brother was enrolled in compulsory education. Primary school) are so hard to save food and clothing, but now let them know that there is not only one way to live, and there are other choices... Even though they have accepted the traditional concept of "not traveling far" in the village for decades, they are not dead. How could you not be moved?
"Since you can convince your parents, you can also convince other people." Li Lifan sighed when he saw his parents' hearts moved because of his words.Li Lifan has never supported the inexplicable argument of sticking to the countryside and staying in the countryside. Those who tout rural culture, let him live in the old-fashioned countryside for a few years, and he will definitely escape quickly—agricultural profit or large-scale mechanization of the farm model Farming is either engaged in characteristic "" industries, but there are so many poor villages in the country, how many have the conditions to engage in large-scale mechanized planting, and where can there be so many characteristic "" industries to engage in?The so-called consequences of sticking to the roots of rural development are nothing more than the unsalable agricultural products of a certain place that can be seen on the news every year.
Besides, the geographical location of Lijia Village is not good, there are no mountains and rivers around, and there are only rolling hills and mountains full of loess that are common in rural areas in Southwest China. …
In contrast, it is completely drizzle for the bottom-level jobs in any city in province y, which is not a province with a large population, to digest Lijia Village, a village with a total of a hundred households and three or four hundred Dingkou. You can’t even see the spray when it’s sprinkled in. With the support of the Ministry of Property Protection, Li Lifan can even get all the jobs of adults directly... He knows that the situation will not be as ideal as he thought, and half of the villagers can be influenced by him Even if the transfer to the city went smoothly.
Yes, this is the solution that Li Lifan came up with after careful consideration... Why does the grandfather have such a right to speak in the family, and even make the decision to marry his newly grown granddaughter in exchange for the grandson's registration fee, while no one ( Including granddaughter's parents) dare to object?In the final analysis, it is a closed place like the countryside. The elders in the village and the elders with senior surnames are too authoritative.
Li Lifan can't be regarded as a smart person. In the Department of Property Security, his IQ can never be compared with the smart people like Zhu Yuan and Hua Sheng. The class taught by the secretary sent by the party school gave him a very high starting point - using the knowledge he learned to look back at his hometown in memory, it was too easy for Li Lifan to understand where the crux of his hometown was: The ancestors of Jiacun were members of the same clan who fled to Province y in the early Republic of China. After the founding of New China, they were far away from the central government and affected by the Vietnam War at that time. Compared with other provinces, the grassroots of Province y was more chaotic. The rural democratic elections are held. Now the village head of Lijia Village is directly the grandson of Taishugong with the same surname. Can the right to speak not be heavy?
Armed with this understanding and looking at the poverty situation in Lijia Village, Li Lifan thinks deeper, and he can think of more things—it is true that province y is backward, but province y also has poverty alleviation policies, Li Lifan In City A of Province G, I heard from Xie Sanyuan that the sub-district office would give 500 yuan to the poor households on the street every year as New Year’s condolences. Given the current poverty situation in Lijia Village in Province Y, why have the villagers never seen poverty relief funds? ?
Several lonely old people in the village who are over 60 years old are given subsistence allowances by people sent by the village, but each old person is only 200 yuan... And if Li Lifan remembers correctly, the subsistence allowances he heard about in province G The subsistence allowance should be 500 yuan per person per month, and it is not only the orphans and widows without children who have subsistence allowances. Those with family difficulties can apply through the sub-district office. Those who are over 65 years old will have to add more Then a pension of a hundred dollars.
Thinking about it again, Li Lifan remembers that from when he was young, the village head uncle and the village party secretary Tang uncle were away from the village for several months every year, saying that they were outside for the village's seeds, agricultural subsidies, and low income for the elderly. Bao, what are you running outside...
After bidding farewell to his parents and walking out of the main room, Li Lifan looked up at the dark sky and took a deep breath—he had no choice, or he felt that making other choices would not be a positive solution to the problem.So he decided to take the bottom line, and he wanted to completely wipe out this village where a very small number of "elders" could become emperor behind closed doors, and let the villagers enter a truly civilized world in this era that should be bright and bright.
The Department of Property Protection has a lot of face... In other words, as long as the Department of Property Protection can give a reasonable reason and what it does is in line with national policies, then the Department of Property Protection's face will be quite valuable—— Li Lifan, who was bright and sleepless all night, walked to the entrance of the village with his mobile phone, and saw Guoan's car after a short wait.
Comrades from Guoan came to "protect" Li Lifan, and it is impossible to say that they listened to his command. However, under the premise that it does not affect the mission and does not cause trouble to the local government, comrades from Guoan can open the door for a little convenience... After all, Li Lifan is also one of the rare extraordinary in China, and behind him is the Ministry of Material Security, who can "reach the sky" to a certain extent. Therefore, after Li Lifan made a request, the comrades of Guoan went alone with a straight face. He drove away, and five hours later, before noon, he entered the village with several cars in a mighty manner.
The courtyard of Li Lifan's family was full of heads of households invited by Li Lifan's parents, but there were no grand uncles who were too old. Of course, the village head and village party secretary who were away from the village for half a year couldn't see either. I don't know if it was Li Lifan's special order. The people who came from each family were couples who headed the household or single men who went out independently. I didn't see a few old people in the family. The oldest person on the field was Li Lifan's grandfather who lived in the west of the main room.
"Lifan, what are you going to say to everyone? Why don't you invite your uncles over here?" As usual, the old man enjoyed the flattery of the villagers, and found that none of his old neighbors came. Good grandson.
"It's like this, Grandpa, I'm going to discuss employment matters with everyone. You can do this kind of thing by yourself, and you don't need to trouble the old man to come." Li Lifan, who was sitting next to his grandfather, said with a smile.
"What about employment?" The old man smiled authentically, "Oh, do you want to learn from those people on TV and find a big boss to come to our Lijia Village to set up a factory?"
Li Lifan smiled and said nothing, not to mention that Lijia Village does not have such geographical conditions, he would not do such a thing... The township "government" basically does one thing more than one thing, and basically doesn't care about it. A boss from out of town really wants to invest Poverty alleviation, I still don't know what to be tricked into.
"I came from the head of the village, and I know what's going on in the village. Inviting uncles and aunts to come today doesn't mean that I have the ability to invite some big investment bosses. We know the situation in our own village, and we can't do anything here. Come to the factory." Li Lifan turned to the villagers, imitating the self-confidence he learned from Zhu Yuan and Hua Sheng, and said to the villagers, "The mountains and rivers here can't support fertile fields, even if there are fertile fields, at most, you won't be hungry if you eat in the fields. , there is no way to make a fortune, as far as I can remember, no one has built a new house in the village for at least ten years?"
The people in the village laughed softly. Although they were a little embarrassed, this was the truth. Li Lifan's second uncle, relying on his relatives, said, "Lifan, it means you want to make us all rich?"
"You can't say that." Li Lifan smiled lightly, "I can only say that I want to try my best to find ways and support the village. We all know the situation in our Lijia Village. In terms of income, the food grown There are a lot of them sold to grain stations, and there is not much to go. Hard-working people go to the market to buy vegetables, which is to earn hard money. If you want to talk about extra income, it depends on a group of people going to the city every month Doing part-time jobs, working hard for five or six days, can earn a few hundred yuan. My parents also go there when they are not farming. I remember that my parents earned the school uniform fee in my high school. I still remember it at the time That money is covered with the blood and sweat of my parents."
Li Lifan sighed: "Going to do odd jobs in the city, although I have never been there, I know how hard it is, squatting on the street waiting for work, only when someone calls for work, and if no one calls, just dry in the sun; I can’t bear to stay in a hotel at night, so I just squeeze into the Datong shop that costs ten yuan a night... If I can’t bear to sleep in a Datong shop, I have to sleep in the waiting room of the station or the ATM at the bank... After a day’s work , I was so tired that I couldn't straighten my waist..."
All the people present were young men from various families, and basically they all went to do odd jobs. Don’t mention how much they resonated with Li Lifan’s words. Women especially have a deep memory. This kind of odd jobs are always rushed to do by the boss. You may be asked to pick up light and easy work. Which woman has not carried bricks and stirred cement slurry?
"It's not easy for us villagers to make some money." Li Lifan continued, "I don't know people and have no connections. When I enter the city, my eyes are darkened. Why don't we just grit our teeth and do what we can? My mother and I As I said, one year the city was engaged in greening, and they were called to do odd jobs. This job is not challenging or difficult, just paving the mud, digging holes, and transplanting flowers and grass seedlings as well as rice seedlings , Pour some water, my mother told me many times, I really miss that time when I did a job that was easy and paid quickly... It’s a pity that this kind of job is rare once, it’s over, it’s over, next time Such an opportunity is rare.”
"Oh, I was there at that time." Li Lifan's second aunt couldn't help but said, "Your mother is afraid that you will feel distressed. Making money is not easy. After a few days, I stand up in the sun for a few days, and my face peels off. My hair is full of black mud... But this is a good way to survive. People from the "government" pay money, lunch fees, and mineral water. This is really good. If there is a second time, I want to rush there .”
Li Lifan turned his head and glanced at his mother, who turned her face away in embarrassment.
"So, it's not that the people in our village can't bear hardships, but they really don't have the opportunity to make money." Li Lifan's nose was sour, and he tried to maintain an imitative smile on his face. Knowing, I can’t help everyone. Now everyone knows that I have entered the property security department and met some people, so if I continue to let go, it would be too heartless—”
Li Lifan's grandfather had never been an official in his life, and rarely left the village, but he was an old man after all, and he heard something wrong when he heard this—it wasn't that he guessed that Li Lifan wanted to "cut off" the "roots" of Lijiacun, But I just instinctively felt that my authority was being challenged—immediately my eyes puffed up, I looked at my beloved grandson who had always been spoiled, and said with a low face: "Lifan, why didn't you discuss it with me before and shouted at me?" Come?"
"Don't worry, Grandpa, let me finish first." Li Lifan responded with a low eyebrow and continued to the villagers, "I have no ability to make everyone rich overnight. It is not natural and reasonable to be rich, but I can find some safe and secure ways for uncles and aunts to make money steadily with their own hands. My idea is in line with the regulations of the Ministry of Property Protection Yes, the leaders of the Ministry of Material Security supported my idea, and helped to contact the labor bureau and poverty alleviation office of our province. Now, the comrades who sent me here are helping to guide comrades from the employment security and human resources departments of the Ministry of Labor, as well as the poverty alleviation office. Come here, and combine with the poverty situation in our village, we will hold a special face-to-face job fair for our Lijia Village."
Li Lifan paused, giving the villagers some time to understand what he meant—yes, the villagers accepted the deep-rooted influence in the village and almost paranoidly regarded the outside world as a dragon's pool and a tiger's lair, but the villagers still believed in the country , Those who believe in the "government", he moved out of the property protection department behind him, and specifically pointed out the "leadership of the property protection department" as a big mountain... Then, compared with such a reliable authority, it is formed by subtle influence, blood, family, and elder authority. How long can the ideological fetters last?
Seeing that the villagers understood what he said and showed various strange colors, Li Lifan smiled and said: "In normal times, it is impossible for these formal units to recruit people from the village, and we don't have many people." Culture, talent, how can there be a reason why the big boss has to go to the countryside in person to hire a cleaner? Our leaders can hire people from the employment security department and employers, partly because our village itself is poor For the sake of the village, the comrades from the Poverty Alleviation Office helped to speak... If it can solve the poverty problem in our village, so that all uncles and aunts don’t have to worry about the headache of having no work but no money to earn, then this is not considered. Abuse of power. This is not where I can contribute. I still need uncles and aunts to work hard. If you work hard to produce a good result, I will not be afraid that our leaders will dislike me. Come up with a good result."
Are there lazy people in the village?have.Where there are no slackers and slackers, that would be a strange thing.
But if you are too lazy to help the oil bottle when it is down, you need conditions. You need the family to spoil him or her unconditionally and without principle, and let him or her know that even if you don’t help the oil bottle, it will not affect the quality and quality of your next meal. quantity.
Just like Jia Baoyu in the Red House, young master Jia can still heartlessly say "If he doesn't take over, the four of us will be indispensable" if his family has fallen, he doesn't care whether the family can continue or not, Is it because people don't care whether the family is rich or poor?It's because people know that no matter how bad the treatment at home is, they won't lower their teeth~
In other words, certain family conditions are required to raise a lazy person. Even a farmer must be a farmer with at least a surplus of food... A family who is so poor that it has eaten its last meal and has not finished its next meal will not wander around when hungry 』Looking for food, where is the condition for you to be an absolute slob?
If you want to say that Lijia Village is used to producing lazy people, there are a few, but it is a poor village after all. This so-called lazy has a different meaning from the lazy people in the city. In an environment where farming is mainly done, it is a lazy person. It's not necessarily true in other environments; some women who are scolded as sluts in the countryside are simply proficient in housework in the eyes of urban people... It's just unacceptable that they don't pay attention to hygiene.
But now, when Li Lifan said this with confidence, other people may still hesitate. Li Lifan's second uncle, who was scolded as a lazy man in Lijia Village, first stood up to support: "Lifan's words are right. , Lifan went to ask someone to come to our village and arrange jobs for us. We must not lose face of Lifan, we must make a good personal appearance, let Lifan's leaders know that this time they are helping Lifan and helping our Lijia Village Your help is not in vain!"
We must have an understanding that lazy people in certain circumstances actually give up because they cannot see hope for improvement—for example, Li Lifan’s second uncle, his own daughter is smart and able to study, but she was admitted to a key high school and was not allowed to study Instead, he arranged for the old father to get married, and the gift money was used for other nephews. After encountering such a thing, can he really continue to work hard without heart?
It is not only the old man of the Li family who can vaguely perceive Li Lifan's true intentions. Although the second uncle who is overwhelmed by this family does not really understand what Li Lifan wants to do, he instinctively realizes that this is a It is a good opportunity to jump out of Lijia Village, and the employers invited by the leaders of the Ministry of Material Security, which are well-known throughout the country, must be better than the village head and the village party secretary.
This is the cunning of Chinese peasants. They don't understand so much truth, but they can always be sensitive to the short-term interests closest to them-although they can only be tourists in the city and there are not many places to see, but the second uncle I know in my heart that there are many, many more opportunities in the city than in the village. Since there are such safe, reliable and reliable opportunities to work in the city, it is a fool to cling to the few acres of land at home.
"Second, what are you yelling about?!" The old man was reluctant to scold his grandson, so he transferred his anger to the second son who jumped out, "You know what's going on outside! Leave the field and go out, I think you will starve to death." I can't find my way back!"
The second uncle just turned his head and didn't speak. The two big mountains in the village, the village head and the village party secretary would not allow young people to disobey their elders. Although he wanted to escape, he didn't have the courage to refute his elders.
There are many people who are as tempted as the second uncle... After all, it is a modern society. There are also young people in the village who save money and buy smart phones that cost hundreds of dollars. With the support of family members and no guides, not many people dare to run out on two feet.
"Lifan, what are you talking about... people from the labor bureau have been here for a long time, do you think they think of me?" A cousin of Li Lifan couldn't help asking.
The cousin from the next room started, and the other people couldn't help it, and they all asked about the recruitment conditions. Young people in their 30s have at least attended elementary school, and most of the group in their 20s have finished junior high school. Before, they didn’t think it was important to have read a book, but now they are all nervous about their education level.
"Don't worry, everyone. I have told our leaders truthfully about the situation in our Lijia Village, so the labor bureau will not arrange too technical jobs for us. They are all simple jobs. Of course, these jobs are given The salary will be the same as the difficulty of getting a job, and it will not be too high..." Li Lifan patiently explained one by one. Over the years, it is not that no one in the village has worked up the courage to run out and earn money, but these people are considered to be If you have the heart, you can't solve the job problem of so many people in the village, and even if you want to take a few brothers out, there is great resistance.At this moment, he can be regarded as blessed, whether it is for his own worries or for the family to reverse the twisted potential rules before, he will try his best to solve this matter in one go.
"Lifan, you..."
Li Lifan heard his grandfather's feeble calling among the many voices, and he felt a twitch in his heart that the angry old man would actually utter such a weak tone.Secretly squeezed his thigh hard, Li Lifan held back and didn't look back - this is not the time for him to be soft-hearted.Whether it is family affection or so-called tradition, if it is incorrect, it is incorrect, and if it is immoral, it is immoral. He must give this knife to this deformed and morbid state of existence in the countryside.
Li Lifan guessed what his grandfather would use to persuade him... He has already made it clear that he wants the villagers to leave the village for employment, so will he not care about his uncles and uncles who rely on holding the power of the village cadres to deceive others?Do you still want blood relatives? Do you really have the heart to harm relatives?
In the eyes of an old man like his grandfather, such behavior is unreasonable, but Li Lifan doesn't think it is necessary to "hidden relatives" in the context of modern society... It's just that he can go with a dying man Is the old man arguing about this?Even if you win the battle, what's the point?
Guoan's car was parked at the gate of the Li family compound, and the long motorcade caused the villagers sitting in the courtyard to look out, curious and afraid to approach.A middle-aged man in a jacket and suit pants who looked like a leader of a small department got out of the car and walked to the courtyard dam, looked at the villagers with a smile, and raised his voice slightly: "Hello, fellow villagers, Li Comrade Lifan's home is here, right?"
"I'm here." Li Lifan replied, and stood up from the bench. When he got up, Li Lifan saw that the waist of the old man sitting on his right was tense, and his face was turned to the other side. After hesitating, Li Lifan Lifan still couldn't help but slightly bent down, and whispered to his grandfather who loved him since he was a child, "Grandpa...let the young people do the things now."
Those inappropriate...don't force it on us.
ps2: I personally do not accept all the silly remarks about the beauty of the countryside. I myself had a rural household registration 11 years ago.
ps3: In some local villages, the division of poverty alleviation funds and resources, and corruption are countless times more serious than those described in the article.Therefore, I think that the most difficult departments at the grassroots level in China, except for the police, are the poverty alleviation offices that are dedicated to doing things (not counting the idlers).
In Li Lifan's memory, his family is warm and harmonious, with a kind grandfather, a gentle and hardworking mother, who doesn't talk much but is always careful about the books at home, and keeps all the textbooks of his sons intact. The father, and the "grandmother" who seldom speaks, but likes to pack snacks in his pockets and distribute them to his grandchildren.
Li Lifan has never felt that his family’s situation is special. It is true that his family is much poorer than many high school and college classmates’ families, but Li Lifan believes that his family is at least clean, complete, harmonious and warm. One point is that most people can't compare.In Li Lifan's memory, his family has never quarreled, and the most problematic conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law does not exist in his family-"grandma" can't speak a few words all year round, so how can she blush with her daughter-in-law? ?
Now looking back and thinking about it, Li Lifan realized that his family was not what he understood...Why did "grandma" and "grandma" talk so little?Or, why are almost all the elders in the family taciturn except for grandpa?
Because in the family except grandpa, no one else has a say.
Li Lifan recalled that every time there were outsiders or his own family gathered together, there was no other voice except grandpa. Grandpa was indeed kind to them grandchildren, but even those who lived with grandpa all their lives "Grandma" and "Grandma" are not qualified to speak loudly in front of grandpa.
Li Lifan felt the nerves on his forehead throbbing. People’s memories are very strange things. Things that you thought you ignored and didn’t pay attention to at all. When you open the attic of memory, you will always find that those things are actually set there-
When I was in elementary school, my grandfather seemed to still do things to my grandma. Why didn't I remember what Wutangmei said, and the little Jiajia from Uncle Yao's family asked grandma to eat?Because when he saw grandma that day, there were some black and red things and tiny cracks on the skin of grandma's mouth, Li Lifan thought grandma had fallen, so he ran to call Dad took Yunnan Baiyao... Li Lifan, who was still young at that time, did not have the concept of domestic violence.
Grandpa treats mother better than other aunts, because mother gave birth to three sons, grandpa is willing to give her face...
During the summer vacation in high school, Li Lifan, who was studying hard, seemed to have vaguely heard his mother mention that Li Liqiu felt guilty when he saw his second uncle's house...
The sons and grandchildren in the family are all looking for their own way out after failing to pass the college entrance examination, and no matter what Li Lifan thinks at the moment, he can't think of any of his cousins who have graduated from junior high school or above.
Li Lifan, who walked home silently, hesitated for a while and didn't go back to his room. He walked around to the west of the main room and knocked on his parents' door.
"Lifan? Still not sleeping? Can't sleep?" His father, who had just turned [-], got up and opened the door. Li Lifan saw his mother get up too.
Li Lifan walked in and closed the door with his hand. He could feel the warmth from his parents' low-pitched greetings. This is the strength that his family has always given him, and it is also the confidence that he can live a better life with dignity.He went to his parents' bed and sat down. He looked at the faces of his parents who were a little older than the middle-aged people of the same age, and felt a little sour in his heart: "Dad, Mom... You know what kind of department the Property Security Department is."
"I understand, Lifan, you can work with peace of mind, and your family will never hold you back." The mother who cared about her son quickly expressed her opinion.
Li Lifan shook his head slightly: "...I used to be ignorant and didn't care about family affairs except for studying, so I didn't know that my high school registration fee was actually exchanged by sister Qiuqiu."
"Lifan, this is none of your business. The money I borrowed from your second uncle's family has already been returned." Mom said nervously.
Li Lifan smiled wryly: "This is not a question of money. Mom, if you can pay back the money, who can afford it in sister Qiuqiu's life? Today... I saw little Shasha and sister Yao from the fourth uncle's house. Even if the fourth uncle ran away The fourth aunt is left to take them, and the fourth aunt is so diligent, and she can afford the two sisters to study in the city as a nanny, right?" Li Lifan took a deep breath, he didn't dare to say the next words, but these But he was not qualified to evade, "I didn't think about this problem before, but now parents, tell me the truth... Is there someone in our Lijia Village who is in charge of the people in the village, so that the situation like Fourth Aunt is not allowed people go out to work?"
In modern society... in 2018, urbanites who live in big cities and spend their days online, playing games, surfing Taobao, shopping and singing KTV in addition to work and study may find it very difficult to understand the people of China who live under the same sky as them. Among the citizens, there are actually a small number of people whose personal freedom is restricted and controlled by some kind of force.
Even Li Lifan, who came out of the countryside, and Li Lifan, who has studied in high school and university in the city for several years, never thought about this problem before entering the Department of Material Security.
After all, in our cognition, it is very normal to work in cities or in other places, and migrant workers have long been a widely used label among the migrant workers - with the utilitarianism in the bones of Chinese people, working is more profitable than farming Then choosing the latter is as natural as drinking water when you are thirsty.As a large number of young and middle-aged people migrate to cities to work, left-behind children and elderly people have become a social problem.
So... Many people, including Li Lifan, have never considered that such an incident will happen in the sun: In some villages, clans, village elders, and family elders will restrict working women in the village and even working young and old. A village worker is not allowed to go out of the village, and he or she is tightly bound to the land.
Li Lifan's parents looked at each other when they heard the words, as if they didn't quite understand why Li Lifan said these words in such a sad tone, his mother wondered if something was wrong with her son, hesitated for a while before cautiously saying: "You What are you talking about? It looks like someone forbids the people in the village to live a better life. Your fourth aunt still has two dolls at home. If she goes far away, who will take care of little Sasha and Yaomei? The same as before, several families in the village go to the city to do odd jobs together, and go back together, it’s safe, and it’s not like they can’t make money.”
The so-called part-time job refers to daily hard work, and the income is not guaranteed and unstable.The fourth aunt is a rural woman, and it is conceivable how much money she can earn by doing odd jobs.Li Lifan vaguely remembered that his parents also used this kind of odd jobs to earn him school uniform fees, and he felt even more uncomfortable. He thought of what Zhu Yuan, who had done a survey on the dark side of the village, said - certain village restrictions In most cases, villagers will not take coercive means, but use other methods such as demonizing the city, demonizing labor behavior, and blood bondage.
This is very subtle, and it is difficult to pick out the wrong method... After all, people do not really use illegal personal restrictions, but use language, group "sexual" atmosphere and other ways to influence sideways.But fallacies are fallacies after all, untenable—there are at least a few million young girls working far away from home in China, and tens of thousands of single mothers with children. Is it true that the rest of the world is not safe, that they are all living in precarity and trembling?It is not safe for a rural woman who is nearly forty years old to work in a city that is at most two hours away from home by bus? !
Yes, no matter how unbelievable it may seem to outsiders, such an unreasonable excuse can confine a mother who can hardly support two children by farming without the assistance of her husband to the countryside. The only one who can use her own labor a little The way to change life is to do part-time jobs organized by villagers and "go together and return together".
Li Lifan's mother couldn't feel Li Lifan's pain, and was still trying to persuade her son in her own way: "It's not a good thing to go far away, your fourth uncle will never come back, and now he doesn't care whether he lives or dies." I know. The outside world is very chaotic, not everything is the same as the place where you work. Lifan, you used to be at the head of the school, but now you are in a national unit, you don’t understand the outside world..."
Li Lifan listened to his mother nagging him about the outside world, the farthest place he has ever traveled in his life was the provincial capital, he couldn't help but smile wryly.Yes, how could he have forgotten it? The outside world is very "chaotic", very unsafe, and very difficult to live in. This is what he has heard from the elders of Lijia Village since he was a child. He was admitted to a better university and went out. When he was studying, his grandfather and the great-uncle in the other room told him that he was fine, not to leave school casually, and to take the civil service examination to become an official after graduation...
Lijia Village is not a very remote village. It is only four or ten minutes away from the county seat by bus, and only two hours away from the city. However, it is different from those villages where the entire village has gone out to work and is rich. , there are almost no new houses in Lijia Village—it’s not surprising that there are not many villagers in Lijia Village who go out to work. Odd jobs, squatting for a few days to earn a few hundred yuan of hard-earned money, and then come back together... Anyway, most of the people in Lijia Village are surnamed Li, and they are all related by blood. They go to work in "dangerous" cities together. Is there anything more dangerous than being with relatives?
A strange thought came into Li Lifan's mind. If the news about Li's Village is known to the world, the world will probably only think that the people in Li's Village are lazy and unwilling to go out to work and make money. That's why they are so poor and backward... Thinking about it, this conjecture might be inseparable, and Li Lifan had no other feelings except for a wry smile.
"Mom, I'm 20 years old this year." Li Lifan waited for his mother to finish persuading him, and then said slowly, "At my age, if I didn't go to school but worked in the city, I could be a plumber, courier, or takeaway. ... These industries do not require academic qualifications to recruit people. Dolls who have graduated from junior high school and high school are fine, and everyone wants them. The work they do is not complicated. Dad is suffering when the farming is busy... There are thousands of couriers and takeaways in city a where I am now. Their wages are thousands of yuan when they are not busy, and tens of thousands when they are busy, which is not much less than when I entered this national unit ..."
"Can you earn so much by running errands and delivering meals?" Dad, who had been silent all the time, was surprised.
"Yes. City A is still a small city. In big cities, there are tens of thousands of the most diligent takeaways a month when they are busy. There are many people in the city, and young people are unwilling to cook with a fire. Many people eat twice a day. Every meal is ordered for takeaway, and there is a commission for every delivery..." Li Lifan tried his best to use the meaning that his parents could understand and accept most slowly, "If you don't know the way, or you are afraid that you will not be able to be a deliveryman, Then there are other options... In a city with hundreds of thousands of people, there are at least tens of thousands of jobs for people with low education. Those who can endure hardships earn more, and those who cannot endure hardships earn less. Anyway, wages are saved There is always a surplus of dots... this is the male side."
"It's easier for women to find such simple jobs than us men. Waiters, babysitters, cleaning... The minimum number of female workers in small restaurants is 1800. Food is included, and some work such as washing vegetables, washing dishes, mopping the floor and sweeping the floor... …This kind of job does not require education and is not only for young people. You can find it on any street with a restaurant. If you are younger, you will have more choices..."
Li Lifan’s family conditions are difficult, and he has work-study experience after he went to college. It’s hard to find a job as a tutor, and he can’t delay his studies for a part-time job. Age requires him to be able to tell a thing or two - as a farmer's son, he knows exactly what method to use to convince his parents.After introducing the choices of low-level migrant workers, he began to tell his parents another way: starting a business by himself.
For example, when a farmer’s son like Li Lifan talks about starting a business, of course he doesn’t start a business at such a high level as starting a company, opening a hotel, or opening a chain store—he started from a roadside stall.When he was a freshman, he was very poor. He teamed up with a poor student from another department to pool money to search for cheap trinkets on Taobao, and bought a batch to sell in the night market. Only by doing so piecemeal did he earn the canteen meal ticket for that semester; When I was a sophomore, I heard that a senior sister earned four years of tuition fees by selling egg-filled pancakes on weekends. They were very envious, but they didn't have the capital to start, and they didn't have the skills.
For the vast majority of Chinese people, it is almost common sense that setting up a small stall to sell food can make money. The profit of the catering industry starts at 100%. The stall looks inconspicuous, but it is no secret that people can earn half of the turnover.But for the very few people who obviously live in the 21st century, but their thoughts are imperceptibly rigid and bound, this is undoubtedly a fantasy——Li Lifan’s mother no longer babbles that “the outside world is very dangerous.” Lifan's father's eyes became brighter the more he listened.
Li Lifan is a "capable son", what he said is not empty talk, even if what he said is the "living way" and small fights that only the low-level people who have no resources and capital will appreciate, it is enough to convince His parents——Li Lifan’s family farmed the land when they were busy and did odd jobs when they were free to support their three sons’ education (Li Lifan received a full scholarship and a student loan from the state, and Li Lifan’s third brother was enrolled in compulsory education. Primary school) are so hard to save food and clothing, but now let them know that there is not only one way to live, and there are other choices... Even though they have accepted the traditional concept of "not traveling far" in the village for decades, they are not dead. How could you not be moved?
"Since you can convince your parents, you can also convince other people." Li Lifan sighed when he saw his parents' hearts moved because of his words.Li Lifan has never supported the inexplicable argument of sticking to the countryside and staying in the countryside. Those who tout rural culture, let him live in the old-fashioned countryside for a few years, and he will definitely escape quickly—agricultural profit or large-scale mechanization of the farm model Farming is either engaged in characteristic "" industries, but there are so many poor villages in the country, how many have the conditions to engage in large-scale mechanized planting, and where can there be so many characteristic "" industries to engage in?The so-called consequences of sticking to the roots of rural development are nothing more than the unsalable agricultural products of a certain place that can be seen on the news every year.
Besides, the geographical location of Lijia Village is not good, there are no mountains and rivers around, and there are only rolling hills and mountains full of loess that are common in rural areas in Southwest China. …
In contrast, it is completely drizzle for the bottom-level jobs in any city in province y, which is not a province with a large population, to digest Lijia Village, a village with a total of a hundred households and three or four hundred Dingkou. You can’t even see the spray when it’s sprinkled in. With the support of the Ministry of Property Protection, Li Lifan can even get all the jobs of adults directly... He knows that the situation will not be as ideal as he thought, and half of the villagers can be influenced by him Even if the transfer to the city went smoothly.
Yes, this is the solution that Li Lifan came up with after careful consideration... Why does the grandfather have such a right to speak in the family, and even make the decision to marry his newly grown granddaughter in exchange for the grandson's registration fee, while no one ( Including granddaughter's parents) dare to object?In the final analysis, it is a closed place like the countryside. The elders in the village and the elders with senior surnames are too authoritative.
Li Lifan can't be regarded as a smart person. In the Department of Property Security, his IQ can never be compared with the smart people like Zhu Yuan and Hua Sheng. The class taught by the secretary sent by the party school gave him a very high starting point - using the knowledge he learned to look back at his hometown in memory, it was too easy for Li Lifan to understand where the crux of his hometown was: The ancestors of Jiacun were members of the same clan who fled to Province y in the early Republic of China. After the founding of New China, they were far away from the central government and affected by the Vietnam War at that time. Compared with other provinces, the grassroots of Province y was more chaotic. The rural democratic elections are held. Now the village head of Lijia Village is directly the grandson of Taishugong with the same surname. Can the right to speak not be heavy?
Armed with this understanding and looking at the poverty situation in Lijia Village, Li Lifan thinks deeper, and he can think of more things—it is true that province y is backward, but province y also has poverty alleviation policies, Li Lifan In City A of Province G, I heard from Xie Sanyuan that the sub-district office would give 500 yuan to the poor households on the street every year as New Year’s condolences. Given the current poverty situation in Lijia Village in Province Y, why have the villagers never seen poverty relief funds? ?
Several lonely old people in the village who are over 60 years old are given subsistence allowances by people sent by the village, but each old person is only 200 yuan... And if Li Lifan remembers correctly, the subsistence allowances he heard about in province G The subsistence allowance should be 500 yuan per person per month, and it is not only the orphans and widows without children who have subsistence allowances. Those with family difficulties can apply through the sub-district office. Those who are over 65 years old will have to add more Then a pension of a hundred dollars.
Thinking about it again, Li Lifan remembers that from when he was young, the village head uncle and the village party secretary Tang uncle were away from the village for several months every year, saying that they were outside for the village's seeds, agricultural subsidies, and low income for the elderly. Bao, what are you running outside...
After bidding farewell to his parents and walking out of the main room, Li Lifan looked up at the dark sky and took a deep breath—he had no choice, or he felt that making other choices would not be a positive solution to the problem.So he decided to take the bottom line, and he wanted to completely wipe out this village where a very small number of "elders" could become emperor behind closed doors, and let the villagers enter a truly civilized world in this era that should be bright and bright.
The Department of Property Protection has a lot of face... In other words, as long as the Department of Property Protection can give a reasonable reason and what it does is in line with national policies, then the Department of Property Protection's face will be quite valuable—— Li Lifan, who was bright and sleepless all night, walked to the entrance of the village with his mobile phone, and saw Guoan's car after a short wait.
Comrades from Guoan came to "protect" Li Lifan, and it is impossible to say that they listened to his command. However, under the premise that it does not affect the mission and does not cause trouble to the local government, comrades from Guoan can open the door for a little convenience... After all, Li Lifan is also one of the rare extraordinary in China, and behind him is the Ministry of Material Security, who can "reach the sky" to a certain extent. Therefore, after Li Lifan made a request, the comrades of Guoan went alone with a straight face. He drove away, and five hours later, before noon, he entered the village with several cars in a mighty manner.
The courtyard of Li Lifan's family was full of heads of households invited by Li Lifan's parents, but there were no grand uncles who were too old. Of course, the village head and village party secretary who were away from the village for half a year couldn't see either. I don't know if it was Li Lifan's special order. The people who came from each family were couples who headed the household or single men who went out independently. I didn't see a few old people in the family. The oldest person on the field was Li Lifan's grandfather who lived in the west of the main room.
"Lifan, what are you going to say to everyone? Why don't you invite your uncles over here?" As usual, the old man enjoyed the flattery of the villagers, and found that none of his old neighbors came. Good grandson.
"It's like this, Grandpa, I'm going to discuss employment matters with everyone. You can do this kind of thing by yourself, and you don't need to trouble the old man to come." Li Lifan, who was sitting next to his grandfather, said with a smile.
"What about employment?" The old man smiled authentically, "Oh, do you want to learn from those people on TV and find a big boss to come to our Lijia Village to set up a factory?"
Li Lifan smiled and said nothing, not to mention that Lijia Village does not have such geographical conditions, he would not do such a thing... The township "government" basically does one thing more than one thing, and basically doesn't care about it. A boss from out of town really wants to invest Poverty alleviation, I still don't know what to be tricked into.
"I came from the head of the village, and I know what's going on in the village. Inviting uncles and aunts to come today doesn't mean that I have the ability to invite some big investment bosses. We know the situation in our own village, and we can't do anything here. Come to the factory." Li Lifan turned to the villagers, imitating the self-confidence he learned from Zhu Yuan and Hua Sheng, and said to the villagers, "The mountains and rivers here can't support fertile fields, even if there are fertile fields, at most, you won't be hungry if you eat in the fields. , there is no way to make a fortune, as far as I can remember, no one has built a new house in the village for at least ten years?"
The people in the village laughed softly. Although they were a little embarrassed, this was the truth. Li Lifan's second uncle, relying on his relatives, said, "Lifan, it means you want to make us all rich?"
"You can't say that." Li Lifan smiled lightly, "I can only say that I want to try my best to find ways and support the village. We all know the situation in our Lijia Village. In terms of income, the food grown There are a lot of them sold to grain stations, and there is not much to go. Hard-working people go to the market to buy vegetables, which is to earn hard money. If you want to talk about extra income, it depends on a group of people going to the city every month Doing part-time jobs, working hard for five or six days, can earn a few hundred yuan. My parents also go there when they are not farming. I remember that my parents earned the school uniform fee in my high school. I still remember it at the time That money is covered with the blood and sweat of my parents."
Li Lifan sighed: "Going to do odd jobs in the city, although I have never been there, I know how hard it is, squatting on the street waiting for work, only when someone calls for work, and if no one calls, just dry in the sun; I can’t bear to stay in a hotel at night, so I just squeeze into the Datong shop that costs ten yuan a night... If I can’t bear to sleep in a Datong shop, I have to sleep in the waiting room of the station or the ATM at the bank... After a day’s work , I was so tired that I couldn't straighten my waist..."
All the people present were young men from various families, and basically they all went to do odd jobs. Don’t mention how much they resonated with Li Lifan’s words. Women especially have a deep memory. This kind of odd jobs are always rushed to do by the boss. You may be asked to pick up light and easy work. Which woman has not carried bricks and stirred cement slurry?
"It's not easy for us villagers to make some money." Li Lifan continued, "I don't know people and have no connections. When I enter the city, my eyes are darkened. Why don't we just grit our teeth and do what we can? My mother and I As I said, one year the city was engaged in greening, and they were called to do odd jobs. This job is not challenging or difficult, just paving the mud, digging holes, and transplanting flowers and grass seedlings as well as rice seedlings , Pour some water, my mother told me many times, I really miss that time when I did a job that was easy and paid quickly... It’s a pity that this kind of job is rare once, it’s over, it’s over, next time Such an opportunity is rare.”
"Oh, I was there at that time." Li Lifan's second aunt couldn't help but said, "Your mother is afraid that you will feel distressed. Making money is not easy. After a few days, I stand up in the sun for a few days, and my face peels off. My hair is full of black mud... But this is a good way to survive. People from the "government" pay money, lunch fees, and mineral water. This is really good. If there is a second time, I want to rush there .”
Li Lifan turned his head and glanced at his mother, who turned her face away in embarrassment.
"So, it's not that the people in our village can't bear hardships, but they really don't have the opportunity to make money." Li Lifan's nose was sour, and he tried to maintain an imitative smile on his face. Knowing, I can’t help everyone. Now everyone knows that I have entered the property security department and met some people, so if I continue to let go, it would be too heartless—”
Li Lifan's grandfather had never been an official in his life, and rarely left the village, but he was an old man after all, and he heard something wrong when he heard this—it wasn't that he guessed that Li Lifan wanted to "cut off" the "roots" of Lijiacun, But I just instinctively felt that my authority was being challenged—immediately my eyes puffed up, I looked at my beloved grandson who had always been spoiled, and said with a low face: "Lifan, why didn't you discuss it with me before and shouted at me?" Come?"
"Don't worry, Grandpa, let me finish first." Li Lifan responded with a low eyebrow and continued to the villagers, "I have no ability to make everyone rich overnight. It is not natural and reasonable to be rich, but I can find some safe and secure ways for uncles and aunts to make money steadily with their own hands. My idea is in line with the regulations of the Ministry of Property Protection Yes, the leaders of the Ministry of Material Security supported my idea, and helped to contact the labor bureau and poverty alleviation office of our province. Now, the comrades who sent me here are helping to guide comrades from the employment security and human resources departments of the Ministry of Labor, as well as the poverty alleviation office. Come here, and combine with the poverty situation in our village, we will hold a special face-to-face job fair for our Lijia Village."
Li Lifan paused, giving the villagers some time to understand what he meant—yes, the villagers accepted the deep-rooted influence in the village and almost paranoidly regarded the outside world as a dragon's pool and a tiger's lair, but the villagers still believed in the country , Those who believe in the "government", he moved out of the property protection department behind him, and specifically pointed out the "leadership of the property protection department" as a big mountain... Then, compared with such a reliable authority, it is formed by subtle influence, blood, family, and elder authority. How long can the ideological fetters last?
Seeing that the villagers understood what he said and showed various strange colors, Li Lifan smiled and said: "In normal times, it is impossible for these formal units to recruit people from the village, and we don't have many people." Culture, talent, how can there be a reason why the big boss has to go to the countryside in person to hire a cleaner? Our leaders can hire people from the employment security department and employers, partly because our village itself is poor For the sake of the village, the comrades from the Poverty Alleviation Office helped to speak... If it can solve the poverty problem in our village, so that all uncles and aunts don’t have to worry about the headache of having no work but no money to earn, then this is not considered. Abuse of power. This is not where I can contribute. I still need uncles and aunts to work hard. If you work hard to produce a good result, I will not be afraid that our leaders will dislike me. Come up with a good result."
Are there lazy people in the village?have.Where there are no slackers and slackers, that would be a strange thing.
But if you are too lazy to help the oil bottle when it is down, you need conditions. You need the family to spoil him or her unconditionally and without principle, and let him or her know that even if you don’t help the oil bottle, it will not affect the quality and quality of your next meal. quantity.
Just like Jia Baoyu in the Red House, young master Jia can still heartlessly say "If he doesn't take over, the four of us will be indispensable" if his family has fallen, he doesn't care whether the family can continue or not, Is it because people don't care whether the family is rich or poor?It's because people know that no matter how bad the treatment at home is, they won't lower their teeth~
In other words, certain family conditions are required to raise a lazy person. Even a farmer must be a farmer with at least a surplus of food... A family who is so poor that it has eaten its last meal and has not finished its next meal will not wander around when hungry 』Looking for food, where is the condition for you to be an absolute slob?
If you want to say that Lijia Village is used to producing lazy people, there are a few, but it is a poor village after all. This so-called lazy has a different meaning from the lazy people in the city. In an environment where farming is mainly done, it is a lazy person. It's not necessarily true in other environments; some women who are scolded as sluts in the countryside are simply proficient in housework in the eyes of urban people... It's just unacceptable that they don't pay attention to hygiene.
But now, when Li Lifan said this with confidence, other people may still hesitate. Li Lifan's second uncle, who was scolded as a lazy man in Lijia Village, first stood up to support: "Lifan's words are right. , Lifan went to ask someone to come to our village and arrange jobs for us. We must not lose face of Lifan, we must make a good personal appearance, let Lifan's leaders know that this time they are helping Lifan and helping our Lijia Village Your help is not in vain!"
We must have an understanding that lazy people in certain circumstances actually give up because they cannot see hope for improvement—for example, Li Lifan’s second uncle, his own daughter is smart and able to study, but she was admitted to a key high school and was not allowed to study Instead, he arranged for the old father to get married, and the gift money was used for other nephews. After encountering such a thing, can he really continue to work hard without heart?
It is not only the old man of the Li family who can vaguely perceive Li Lifan's true intentions. Although the second uncle who is overwhelmed by this family does not really understand what Li Lifan wants to do, he instinctively realizes that this is a It is a good opportunity to jump out of Lijia Village, and the employers invited by the leaders of the Ministry of Material Security, which are well-known throughout the country, must be better than the village head and the village party secretary.
This is the cunning of Chinese peasants. They don't understand so much truth, but they can always be sensitive to the short-term interests closest to them-although they can only be tourists in the city and there are not many places to see, but the second uncle I know in my heart that there are many, many more opportunities in the city than in the village. Since there are such safe, reliable and reliable opportunities to work in the city, it is a fool to cling to the few acres of land at home.
"Second, what are you yelling about?!" The old man was reluctant to scold his grandson, so he transferred his anger to the second son who jumped out, "You know what's going on outside! Leave the field and go out, I think you will starve to death." I can't find my way back!"
The second uncle just turned his head and didn't speak. The two big mountains in the village, the village head and the village party secretary would not allow young people to disobey their elders. Although he wanted to escape, he didn't have the courage to refute his elders.
There are many people who are as tempted as the second uncle... After all, it is a modern society. There are also young people in the village who save money and buy smart phones that cost hundreds of dollars. With the support of family members and no guides, not many people dare to run out on two feet.
"Lifan, what are you talking about... people from the labor bureau have been here for a long time, do you think they think of me?" A cousin of Li Lifan couldn't help asking.
The cousin from the next room started, and the other people couldn't help it, and they all asked about the recruitment conditions. Young people in their 30s have at least attended elementary school, and most of the group in their 20s have finished junior high school. Before, they didn’t think it was important to have read a book, but now they are all nervous about their education level.
"Don't worry, everyone. I have told our leaders truthfully about the situation in our Lijia Village, so the labor bureau will not arrange too technical jobs for us. They are all simple jobs. Of course, these jobs are given The salary will be the same as the difficulty of getting a job, and it will not be too high..." Li Lifan patiently explained one by one. Over the years, it is not that no one in the village has worked up the courage to run out and earn money, but these people are considered to be If you have the heart, you can't solve the job problem of so many people in the village, and even if you want to take a few brothers out, there is great resistance.At this moment, he can be regarded as blessed, whether it is for his own worries or for the family to reverse the twisted potential rules before, he will try his best to solve this matter in one go.
"Lifan, you..."
Li Lifan heard his grandfather's feeble calling among the many voices, and he felt a twitch in his heart that the angry old man would actually utter such a weak tone.Secretly squeezed his thigh hard, Li Lifan held back and didn't look back - this is not the time for him to be soft-hearted.Whether it is family affection or so-called tradition, if it is incorrect, it is incorrect, and if it is immoral, it is immoral. He must give this knife to this deformed and morbid state of existence in the countryside.
Li Lifan guessed what his grandfather would use to persuade him... He has already made it clear that he wants the villagers to leave the village for employment, so will he not care about his uncles and uncles who rely on holding the power of the village cadres to deceive others?Do you still want blood relatives? Do you really have the heart to harm relatives?
In the eyes of an old man like his grandfather, such behavior is unreasonable, but Li Lifan doesn't think it is necessary to "hidden relatives" in the context of modern society... It's just that he can go with a dying man Is the old man arguing about this?Even if you win the battle, what's the point?
Guoan's car was parked at the gate of the Li family compound, and the long motorcade caused the villagers sitting in the courtyard to look out, curious and afraid to approach.A middle-aged man in a jacket and suit pants who looked like a leader of a small department got out of the car and walked to the courtyard dam, looked at the villagers with a smile, and raised his voice slightly: "Hello, fellow villagers, Li Comrade Lifan's home is here, right?"
"I'm here." Li Lifan replied, and stood up from the bench. When he got up, Li Lifan saw that the waist of the old man sitting on his right was tense, and his face was turned to the other side. After hesitating, Li Lifan Lifan still couldn't help but slightly bent down, and whispered to his grandfather who loved him since he was a child, "Grandpa...let the young people do the things now."
Those inappropriate...don't force it on us.
