Niu Jie said: "Of course, my reason is just two words, fooling the people. Why can we rule here and make the villagers fear us? It is because of our power here! If these villagers, They have all learned knowledge, and if they are better than us, will they still listen to what we say in the future? Especially those young people, after they have learned culture, they can walk out of this mountain. In their eyes, what are we? We all remember the previous history, right? In our Taoyuan Township, since the beginning of historical records, we have the chieftain system here, that is, we grass-headed kings are kings, and the government There is nothing we can do, this place has never been managed by the local government! Why is this? Our culture is too strong, so that these foreign cultures cannot take root or sprout at all, so they just Can't really get here at all!"
Everyone was listening, and none of them meant to interrupt Niu Jie. Niu Jie said again: "You all think farther than I do. As long as the level of education here improves, the villagers here will communicate more with the outside world. Let them see that people outside are better than us, will they still believe us? In order to maintain our authority, to consolidate our position, and to strengthen our rule, we can only adopt a policy of ignoring the people and making them I think that I can¡¯t read at birth, they can only live in Taoyuan Township, and they can¡¯t get out of this mountain. If they want a better life, they can only rely on our bestowal. This is my personal opinion. I don¡¯t know if it¡¯s right or not.¡±
The old man with the white beard said: "That's right, you've made it very clear, Niu Jie, we really haven't seen it, you think the problem is far-reaching, and everything you said is on point. That's right, the policy of fooling the people, It is the fundamental law of our invincibility. However, what I want to ask is, how long can we implement this policy? Will the villagers still believe in our approach? Just like the last time Taoyuan School was established Similarly, Head Miao just came forward to lobby for a while. We all thought it had no effect. As a result, Taoyuan School was established in just half a month. We fully believed that the villagers here, they are very poor, Who would have thought that a hundred or so of their students have already gone to school. We fully believe that Taoyuan School is like a stove in the cold winter, and no one can deny its warmth. Reading and going to school have become their mainstream Thinking, at this moment, are we going against the wind, or following the trend?"
This question is too serious and too heavy, and no one can answer it. The old man with white beard sighed and said: "I can't say for sure about this matter. I only know that if we go against the wind, we will be the public enemies of the whole town." , our life will be difficult. If we follow the trend, then our status will disappear little by little. In the former case, the villagers will still have a hard life as before, and live a stupid life, and in the latter case Well, maybe their life will be better, and their life will be more comfortable."
Niu Er thought for a while, and said: "Since they all have the desire to study, they are like a flood. If we still adopt the method of blocking as before, the final result will be that both sides will suffer, and no one will be able to please. On the contrary, if we help them, maybe we will regain some popularity among them, and they might thank us, right? The times are changing, and our thinking must also change. Only then can we adapt to the trend of society and regain the respect of the villagers."
The white-bearded old man said: "Okay, do you have any other different opinions?" Everyone had question marks on their faces. They couldn't decide. They couldn't think clearly about this issue. The last voice said: " Second Uncle, among us, you are the smartest and wisest, please help us make a decision, no matter what your decision is, we will definitely follow you, and no matter what the final result is, it will be up to you We take it."
The white-bearded old man thought for a while, and said: "Well, if you all think like this, I don't have any opinions. Let's play it by ear this morning. Let's listen to the female teacher first, what does she want to say? Something. I remember she seemed to say that she wanted to talk to everyone. Well, everyone has worked hard all night, so let¡¯s take a good nap, what happened this morning will definitely change us a lot.¡±
The next morning, before eight o'clock, people began to come to the entire empty area one after another. There were a few villagers who were very conscious. They moved stones and built planks. After a while , and made a simple stage. At around 8:30, the members of the Niu family also showed up, as well as other clan elders. Of course, they have status and status, and they all have chairs to sit on. The weather is nice too,??Sun, but not strong, there is a little wind, although the wind smells of winter, but more of autumn. There were at least 800 people in the entire empty square, and they were all silent. There were some children who wanted to scream, cry, or make trouble, but were immediately controlled by their parents.
Xu Dashan got out from nowhere, his eyes were a little red, obviously he had closed his eyes for a while when he went back, and he didn't sleep well. Sometimes, sleeping for an hour or two would be better than sleeping. He walked to the front of the stage, invited Xiao Chuchu and Niu Er to the stage, and said loudly: "Everyone, I believe you have heard that a big event happened here when it was dark yesterday, and I will discuss it with you guys." Let me explain briefly." In fact, some villagers knew about it vaguely through telling each other, but there were still some villagers who were kept in the dark. They only know that today's event is definitely a big event, and it is even more grand than the event held when the Miao Township Chief came here last time. Seeing the seriousness of other people's faces, and seeing the Niu family's appearance, this matter Not small. Under normal circumstances, it is rare for the Niu family to show up in groups. Like this time, all the prominent figures of the Niu family were present.
Especially that Niu Er, who was covered in wounds all over his body. His whole body was wrapped in layers of cloth. The cloth was white with some red spots on it. No one would think that the red was white cloth. A little bit of flower dyed on top. Judging by the way he acted, he must have suffered serious injuries. In Fugui Village, within a radius of twenty miles, who would dare to touch a hair of Niu Er? Seeing that he was injured like this, and the Niu family members are still sitting here calmly, there must be a story in between. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
